Stop Selling! It Can Kill Your Home Based Business! The Best Way Is?


Unfortunately, that is the plain truth. People are tired of the hype, the empty promises, the trash and, the 'get rich quick' junk information floating everywhere. If you want ultimate success in your home based business then you have to stop selling. Period!

In recent times, selling the conventional way is now old school. Try approaching anyone with your sales pitch, you will notice that you will get nowhere with that method. You see, that method worked when the Internet was young, now, that method is completely dead.

Try it anywhere online and you are a spammer! You could get into trouble you know.

The only way out is in building value and lasting relationships, Period!

To sell your home based business successfully, focus on building relationships first. Create a lasting impact in the minds of your prospects, pre-sell your opportunities, services and products, then present your business, that way you will make it.

It is not difficult to achieve, the problem is, so many marketers are so desperate to sell their wares so much that they end up frustrated after several failed attempts of the old selling marketing strategies.

If you want to make it in your home based business opportunity, then you need to do these two things very well;

1. Give real valuable and your best information away for free.

2. Let your prospects be your sales funnel and not your sales target.

- Give away valuable information for free

No matter how tempted you may be to make quick money, you must realize that it doesn't work any longer getting people to patronize your home based business if you sell to them directly.
Each time you have a prospect in your mailing list, give away good information to him on that market and do this without a sales pitch.

If you do this for a while, this person out of appreciation for the good information, will develop a trust for you, see you as a friend and ultimately patronizes you.

- Let your prospects be your sales funnel and not your sales target.

When you provide real value to your prospects, they love you for that. They respect you for that and they will gladly tell others about you and your business.

Therefore, after building enough credibility with your prospects, you can use Viral marketing to leverage on that trust you have developed to reach all your prospects circle of friends and peers.
This way, you gain in two ways, namely, patronage from your prospects and all their contacts for free.

This is the missing code in the massive failure we see online today among marketers who are trying to build a downline, sell products, services in their home based business.
