In this episode we will be talking about whether you should be using a Facebook Personal Profile or a Business Page for your network marketing business. This is a hot topic right now in our profession, and I know there are many differing opinions on what you should be doing.
One of the reasons this is such a hot topic is because Facebook is starting to crack down on people that are overly promotional and using their profile to sell. As a result, a lot of network marketers are afraid to use their personal profile. So, does that mean you should completely shift your focus to a Business Page for your business?
Here’s my answer: absolutely not.
However, you do need to be smarter about your approach. The number one goal for Facebook is to improve the user experience. When Network Marketers are spammy with their approach and cold pitch hundreds of people from their personal profile, they get in the way of that goal.
Here’s the key to successful marketing on Facebook and what will keep you out of trouble: DON’T BE AN INFOMERCIAL. What does that mean? It means you need to learn to create content on Facebook that isn’t just about you selling all the time, and actually adds value to other people. The three things I always teach people to do with their content are; educate, entertain, and empower.
The majority of your content that you create should have nothing to do with your specific network marketing company. Most of your “selling” and “recruiting” is going to happen behind the scenes through private conversations. This is what is often referred to today as ‘curiosity marketing’. It’s understanding that if you can add value to others with your content, you’ll build a bigger audience and that will lead to more sales and recruits.
I didn’t create this episode to instill fear of getting your profile shut down - but I want you to to be educated. I want you to understand that we have a responsibility as a profession to be better about the way we use Facebook. If you are educated and smarter about your approach, you will not only be safe longterm, but you will be leveraging social media to help you create real results.

In this episode we will be talking about purpose driven prospecting. Many people in network marketing initially struggle with fear and a lack of confidence, which makes it difficult to create deep and meaningful connections with prospects.
Here's what makes Purpose Driven Prospecting different... it's sharing WHY you do what you do, before you share WHAT you do, or HOW it's different. Most people in network marketing do the exact opposite. When you learn how to lead with WHY, it becomes a total game changer for your results.
Purpose Driven Prospecting will help you start getting the attention of people in a totally different way, help you start making much deeper and more meaningful connections with people, and create loyal life-long clients and business partners for you. It is based on you being clearly able to communicate and lead with your WHY when speaking to a prospect.
When you learn to present your products and opportunity this way, people will start looking at what you do in a totally different way.
Humans aren’t logical beings - we’re emotional beings. We don’t make decisions based off of facts and figures, we make decisions emotionally. Once you learn how to put words to your WHY, you’ll be speaking directly to the emotional decision making part of your prospect’s brain.
Everyone of you has a WHY - some sort of deep-seated purpose, a cause or belief that is the source of your passion and inspiration. You may not know it yet, or know how to put it into words, but it’s there.
Very few people can clearly articulate WHY they do what they do, and you need to start looking at your business as simply a vehicle that allows you to live out your purpose or WHY.
