Facebook Tips by 'Big Al'


My mentor, Tom 'Big Al' Schreiter, told me to share these tips and not to be selfish. So, here goes:

New prospects can check you out on Facebook. So what will they see?

Do you have pictures of your last party with a lampshade on your head? Skinny-dipping from your party boat?

Or is it a picture of you, your family, your dog and the people you are helping?

Do you promote 16 different companies and affiliate programs? Or do you appear to be focused on an opportunity and willing to guide others to success?

And check out the conversations on your wall. Remember, you can delete profanity from your drunken friends.

In network marketing, people join people. They are more interested in you than the company. So why not give the best impression now?

Facebook is huge. People can peek inside you and your life. Make sure the view is flattering.

Be empowered to prosper!

Are You Simply a Coach or Are You a Mentor?

I receive tips and training for networks marketers from my mentor, Tom 'Big Al' Schreiter that I thought I'd share with you. The following was taken from The Big Al Report:

Consider these definitions.

To be a coach, you don't have to know how to do what you are coaching. Many coaches simply listen to their distributors and tell the distributors they already know what to do and how to do it. As coaches, they simply hold the distributors accountable for their actions.

These coaches don't have to be good sponsors, good presenters, or good leaders. They simply hold the distributors accountable, and attempt to motivate them into action by talking about their "Why," etc.

To be a mentor, you should already have the skills the distributor seeks to learn. In this case, the distributor does not have certain skills and experiences, and seeks the answers from the mentor. The mentor is not responsible for motivating or holding the distributor accountable. The mentor assumes the distributor already is highly motivated and will put the lessons into action.

To be a mentor, you must first master the skills the distributor seeks. And if you master the skills, the distributor seeks you.

And what if the distributor is not self-motivated?

Well, the distributor won't be seeking you out.

Are you simply a coach that talks a good talk? Or are you a coach that motivates distributors to take action? Are you a mentor that has mastered skills and can pass them on to self-motivated people?

Or, are you simply a lousy sponsor that recruited a distributor and quickly moved on to finding your next new distributor?

Be empowered to prosper!

Network Marketing Success


Network marketing success is achievable when you build good relationships. And, the quicker you can build those relationships, the quicker you can achieve success in network marketing.

Well, why do network marketers advertise online but don't leave any contact information? Is it they don't know network marketing is about relationships and people do business with those they know, like and trust. Or, do they still think it's about sales? Do they think people will just go to their website and order the product/service? That may be true if you're well-known in the industry but certainly not if you're virtually unknown. If I can't contact someone before I place an order, why would I think I'll be able to after the purchase? I know from first hand experience I won't. Besides, with so many of the same products/services offered online, it is too easy to order from someone you can contact.

As I mentioned, having network marketing success requires a know, like and trust which often comes from building relationships. One way to build relationships is via online social networking. But, even when you meet people on the social networking sites, oftentimes the only contact information provided is an email. But, when you send an email you never get a reply. Some people will provide a contact phone number but, of course, you get a their voicemail message and never a return call. Do you think that will bring network marketing success?

If professional network marketers like the legendary Tom 'Big Al' Schreiter make it easy to contact him, then why wouldn't anyone who desires success in the industry not do likewise?
