Stop pitching your business opportunity!

As online marketers, we see new offers, or even old offers EVERYDAY. At the beginning, you think: "Maybe I should try it". But you see more and more of them and your start thinking: OK now, I cannot join them all so what do I do?"

Chose one or two that you feel comfortable with. And stay with them! After joining one or two business, you still see a lot of opportunity offers everywhere, and you try to ignore them a bit. Then, you start to network on sites like facebook. You want to actually chat with them, create relationship.

But, a lot of people at their first chat with me says: "Hi, how are you?" I answer "fine you" they answer fine, or awesome, or very good. Stuff like that. And then: " Have you heard about this? Do you know this companie?" or "Hey I found something awesome for you".

STOP PITCHING YOUR BUSINESS AT THE FIRST CHAT! I don't even know you, I cannot trust you if you pitch your opportunity right at the first shot! Try to develop a relationship before. You need to make me trust you before pitching me anything. Or I just say in my head: "Ah... I knew it, another pitcher... boring that doesn't interest me.

If you try to chat with me before, (me is also anybody else) if you introduce yourself, chat a couple of times, show me that you're human, then you might try a "hey have you heard about this?". And maybe I'll be more likely to listen to you. Or even better, I might even ask you what's your biz! Then you can explain me what it is!

But stop pitching your business at the first meet! That doesn't create a good impression.

1- Build a list
2- Create relationship with your list
3- Monetize your list
4- Have a good day :)
