Today’s Network Marketing question is….

How do I work Networking Events effectively? Do I lead with product or opportunity?

ANSWER

Thanks to Kim Kennedy for sharing her question, and I know this is one other have..

Know and Understand the Rules of the Networking Group – BNI

Know and Understand the Flow of the Event

Your Elevator Pitch – be catchy and memorable – I help people who…vs…my product does this, this and this…. tell what it DOES instead of what it IS!

Giveaways – use your products in anyway that you can!

10 minute presentations – use these to further explain who you are looking for as a customer for your products.

The meeting after the meeting – referrals are key with networking events. You are looking for the 250 people standing behind the person you are meeting with.

Follow Up – this is critical!

Remember this – while you are around business oriented people, most are there to work their own business and are not there looking for a business. This doesn’t mean they aren’t open to something else, you just have to take the time to develop a relationship, probe, test and reach out.

Referrals are powerful – who do you know who?

Become the go to person in your product niche and be a go giver!
