are you AGAINST in NETWORKING as a BUSINESS?

March 21, 2012 12:15am CST
I just joined a networking company. And there are really a lot of people who are so NEGATIVE about it. If they will hear that your business is networking, they will tell you anything just to discourage you. And I am getting upset especially if I hear it from my friends. I thought they would support me but then they are just bringing me down. For me, networking as a business is not really a bad business. I believe that I would really succeed in this area. THere are lots of people who became rich in networking, right?

AS far as networking businesses go, my perception is that for such a venture to be really successful, one has to have a lot of contacts & not only that, these contacts need to be in alignment with your vision. The best people who can help you in this kind of a business would be your friends who are like minded. I tried one quite a few years ago & was not successful at all. But then, it was because I could not commit time in making contacts & talking to them about the Business I was in. Well, best of luck to you... Don't get de-motivated by others. I guess this would be the worst thing you would do...

Believing in yourself is the first ingredient in joining a networking company. Second ingredient is believing in the nature of your business. With this recipe you will then be able to come up with a good dish, or simply better earnings. Just like food, people have different tastes, others may like networking while some wont get interested. So, if there are people who does not show interest with your business, just put in mind that there are always individual who are next in line.

Well If you think your positive about this then go for your gut instinct, just spend time for it or it will be lost. If friends are negative about it then show them you really can succeed at this type of earning activity Goodluck!

Networking on it's classic context does not have negative meaning at all. If you look at traditional businesses and companies they also survive via networking structure. I assumed you are talking about MLM which at the moment have less positive feedback. For many numbers of MLM company which turned to a pyramiding scheme you can't blame people who think networking is no good at all. I think you are aware of these stories that we have heard on the news. But if you are really passionate and have decided to be in networking industry choose a good MLM company with history of reliable business plan and better product.
