"Hello Jim Rohn, today I want to talk to you in person.... I know you passed away some days ago, but you are immortal and well alive forever."
Let me tell you the story you allowed me to start living (I will give you some useful personal branding and leadership tips along the way, and will develop them in following articles and some videos I am preparing).
It is only some months that I am a network marketer, and I just started in my new opportunity.
My main strength is my personality [tip 1: know your strengths and weaknesses] I know how to brand myself and I found myself many times in the position of a leader, simply because it was needed. A group needed to move and go forward and I took the lead because I had a vision for this group (tip 2: a leader is a visionary)
One of my other strengths: I am a listener (tip 3: network marketing is a relationships business and in in order to improve any relationships and really help others, you have to listen, listen, and listen again).
I listened to some of the most successful people I had the chance to come across in this business. David Wood really impressed me by his ability to create the feeling of a close relationship without spending much time with people, in leveraging the power of the internet. In order to improve my marketing strategies, I listened to his trainings again and again. Then, following his strategy, I started to write and publish articles.
I came across the work of Eric Douglas about leadership (see his book: "Leading at light speed"). He is working, among others, on leadership and building trust relationships in the workplace. And he wrote a short article untitled: "accelerate building trust relationships in the workplace". I asked him about doing the same in social media, and I wrote an article about it on my blog. (tip4: brand yourself in your blog, people have to have a clear and strong impression as soon as they arrive on your home page.)
The next day, I came across the death of Jim Rohn. I did not know him, but immediately, I was feeling his greatness in every word people were saying in tribute to him. I loved all the different quotes from him. I became a fan of the new Facebook group paying tribute to him. So I requested friendship from people belonging to this group, I wanted to know people who knew him and/or love him, or at least acknowledge him (tip 5: when you connect with people on Facebook, always add a message; tip 6: in this message, talk to the person and mention his name; tip 7: always add a short invitation to connect forward with you, to share good things with you)
Connections on Facebook are quite virtual: you only see a small photo of your friends and they are quite abstract, that does not give a feeling of living people and you can easily forget about your friends. That's why some people are making short video to welcome their new friends. I received more and more of them. And I liked it. So I decided to make one myself. It was very short (40 sec) very simple, yet personal (tip 8: when you connect with new people, wether it is in your messages or through videos, find your voice, be simply yourself, and talk genuinely to people, that is how you will touch them and they will remember you) I received positive feedbacks and compliments in comments to my video (tip 9: always reply and engage the conversation with people. Tip 10: ask them questions about them, be truly interested in knowing them better.)
