We spend so much time trying to get the business up and running that we may end up becoming burned out and lose our motivation. There is so much to learn and

There are countless Internet marketing articles out there on how toinfluence your customer to get excited and 'buy now!'That's great, but let's turn things around for a minute. Whathappens when YOU are the potential customer?Guess what? Others will be reading those same articles and tryingthose same tactics on you! That's ok, I mean, fair is fair, but whatcan you do to make sure you don't end up being counted amongthe many thousands who feel they were scammed, betrayed, orripped off?AVOIDING THE HYPEGood salesmanship is about showing your potential customers whatyour product or program can do for them. In other words, it'sabout expressing the greatest potential benefits possible. Noticethe wording I used there. Good salesmanship is about expressingthe 'greatest potential benefits POSSIBLE'.I believe many times when people feel scammed or ripped off it'sbecause the product or program did not live up to the person'sexpectations created by those possible great benefits. However,that's not always the fault of the seller, especially when it comes tonetwork marketing programs.Running your own business takes work, and no matter how goodthe sales copy for a program sounds, marvelous results will NOTcome to pass if you don't do the work.Now, I know many programs claim it takes very little to no effort tobe successful. That's the HYPE of the salesman expressing the'greatest potential benefit possible'. Sure, if you put in enough effortand build a solid downline, the day will come when yourorganization will grow with little effort on your part. That's what thehype of a sales letter is hinting at, and it IS potentially true.However, your job when looking over a product or program is tosort through the hype and think about what is really being offered toyou.Ask yourself how much work is really going to be involved andunder reasonable circumstances how long will it take to achieve thekind of results you are looking for.It's OK to hype things up a little, and get people excited aboutpotential benefits. If no one did that at all, would anybody ever buyanything? A real scam is defined by outright dishonesty, not theexpression of potential benefits. You've got to understand that asproducts and programs are presented to you.FOLLOWING OTHERSMost generally, and this can be a good thing, people tend to followothers that they respect. It's only natural to copy success andfollow those who have already accomplished what it is you areseeking to do.The key here is to be a good judge of character and make sure youare following the right people in the right direction FOR YOU.However, this NEVER entails following along blindly!I can't stress that statement enough. Just because someone youlabel as a 'guru' joins a particular program does NOT mean thatprogram is for you. If you respect that person's opinion, then finelisten to him or her, but do NOT sign up solely based on theirthoughts. You've got to first consider how you feel about theprogram, and if you can see your self successfully working it.GET INFORMATION FIRSTIf a program sounds good to you the first time you read about it,then great, keep it in mind. However, I don't suggest you sign upright away. Give it some thought, ask around, contact your would-be sponsor and ask them what the program is really like.Then, if you are still excited about it, go ahead and sign up.You'll get off to a better start with it this way, since you'll knowmore what to expect, be more likely to stay active with it, and havemore success. Nothing is worse than jumping in without knowinghow a program is going to be and then being disappointed with it.That merely wastes your time and money.I know we all work so hard to create exciting sales copy and instillthe 'buy now' desire in our potential customers. That's fine, but ifwe would all resist that temptation until it proves to be a longerlasting interest, backed up by a little research, I'd bet we'd all comeout happier in the end.------------------------------------------------------------------- "Want to know what a program is like before you buy into it?"I recommend receiving "The LOBO Letter" from John Soares atOnline Scam Reports.
