Keys to a Successful Network Marketing Business
by Michael E Friedman

The keys to success in any business whether it be online or offline are mindset, education, resources and most importantly unique selling proposition (USP).

Mindset is your internal motivator. If you are not 110% confident in the business opportunity you will most likely fail. If you don't believe you can become a leader in your field and take this knowledge to train others the likelihood for success is dismal.

You must have goals and a plan to reach them. Not necessarily monetary goals because we all want more money. Perhaps you goal is spending more time with your family and friends. Your method of achieving this could be a home business. Maybe you want a brand new custom 6,000 square foot home, a new luxury car, boat, exotic vacations, etc. How are you going to achieve this? The obvious answer is money. However, the right answer should be what method or plan is going to allow me to have these dreams and goals turn into reality.

The following factors should be in place and offer you a solution to simplify your search in discovering the right network marketing partner giving you the greatest likelihood to succeed in achieving your dreams:

System: * A fully integrated and personalized online marketing and customer management system * Detailed traffic, lead and sales tracking capabilities * Professional live call center to assist in closing member product sales * International availability * Multiple language platforms

Training * Extensive and comprehensive audio/video library * Comprehensive Marketing Program that teaches a combination of traditional and contemporary marketing strategies * Frequent educational webinars and tele-seminars * Daily personal development training * Business leadership programs * Live events to meet with your peers, mentors and experts in your industry+

Support * Email, phone, and live chat * Professional outsourcing and virtual assistant * Personal marketing mentors

Look for a proven system, plan and template that you can emulate and copy the success of proven leaders in their industry. Discover a system that is built on leadership, communication and integrity, a system that provides its associates with the tools to virtually copy proven success tactics by means of ongoing training and personal support.

Remember, there are no get rich quick businesses without any financial or time commitment. If there were, everyone would be wealthy. Always remember nothing is achieved whether personally or financially without a positive mindset, dedication, perseverance, and just plain old hard work. You can be provided with all the tools, support and resources to market anything to anyone, anywhere in the world, regardless of experience or technical expertise but only you can make it a reality by focus, dedication, perseverance and again just plain old hard work. Only you can empower yourself. Don't identify problems instead find solutions. Don't move around your solutions but move through them.

What Is Twitter? by Stephen Pierce

Do you know what Twitter is about? Twitter is a free social networking service in which people can post quick updates on their Twitter site. Many people are taking advantage of this because it's a way to get to know other people that have the same interests as you.
In order to start, you have to sign up for a free account. It is simple to do and only takes a few minutes to set up. In order to get traffic to your Twitter website, you have to send "tweets".

Tweets are short posts that you send to your account for others to see. You are only allowed to write your tweets with using 140 characters. Other people that see your tweets are called followers. If they are interested in what you have to say, they in turn, will tweet back to you.

You can tweet on Twitter about different things. Some of the topics include sports, advertising, cooking, weight loss and the list goes on and on. There is no set way as to how you should tweet.

However, when you do tweet, it's better if your posts are meaningful and have substance. People like to read about things that interest them. With 140 characters to work with for each tweet, you are hard pressed to send something that will peak your follower's interest.

Twitter can also be used for marketing and promoting of your business. However, you must be subtle about it when you are doing this. You don't want to start out promoting your business as soon as you sign up for an account.

Your motives will be easily discovered and you won't have many followers. It's better if you establish a relationship with your followers and then promote your business. They will appreciate that you thought that much of them not to take advantage of the situation.

With Twitter, everyone is not going to reciprocate when you send out a tweet. Whenever you are tweeting, it's important not to complain or gripe about other people to your followers. They get turned off very quickly and will not come back to your site.

Twitter is a good tool for networking and cultivating relationships. People like it because they are able to connect with others in ways that they may not be able to do otherwise. You will be able to make connections all around the world by continuing to tweet posts that are of interest to others. It has become the new way of effectively communicating through social networking.
