THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT TO EVERYONE WHO USES FACEBOOK FOR BUSINESS OR PERSONAL REASONS!!
Facebook likes to make changes and not really tell everyone. This is an easy way to get the word out – and currently the only way to assure that everyone can see it.
…
Have you noticed that you are only seeing updates in your news feed from the same people lately? Have you also noticed that when you post things like status messages, photos and links, the same circle of people are commenting and everyone else seems to be ignoring you?
Don’t worry, everyone still loves you and nobody has intentionally blocked you. The problem is that a large chunk of your friend/fan list can’t see anything you post and here’s why:
The “New Facebook” has a newsfeed setting that by default is automatically set to show ONLY posts from people who you’ve recently interacted with or interacted the most with (which would be limited to the couple of weeks just before people started switching to the new profile). So in other words, for both business and personal pages, unless your friends/fans commented on one of your posts within those few weeks or vice versa – you are now invisible to them and they are invisible to you!!
HERE’S THE FIX: On the homepage click the “Most Recent” title on the right of the News feed, then click on the drop down arrow beside it and select “Edit Options”, click on “Show Posts From” and change the setting to “All Of Your Friends and Pages” (you can also access the “Edit Options” link at the very bottom of the facebook homepage on the right) Note: Business pages do not have a news feed however page owners should adjust the settings on their personal accounts.
The good news is: now you can now view all of your friends and fans again. The bad news is: YOU ARE STILL INVISIBLE to a large portion of your list. You must get the word out to ALL of your friends and fans by inviting them to this event or creating one of your own so they can read the post and adjust their settings. To invite your friends: Click on “Attending” at the top and then you will see an option to invite your friends at the top left. It’s public so everyone who logs onto facebook can view it and even the friends who can’t see your posts WILL see the event invitation. You can also tweet about it, create a blog post or send out an email to your subscribers in hopes of reaching them all.
MLM success stories are looked at as heroes. Are they really? Or are they just following on the same path you are? What if you knew you are one stage away from total success? From reaching all of your dreams, living the lifestyle and having all the money to do the things that are important in your life?
Last year I learned a valuable lesson in my network marketing career as I learned to surf behind a boat. But before I tell you about my experience, let me tell you where I got my understanding of the learning process. It comes from the “ Conscious Competence ” learning model.
It is not clear who originated the very first ‘conscious competence’ learning model. Various modern authors are named, but sources as old as Confucius and Socrates are cited as possible earliest originators. But the model clearly explains the 4 stages you go through in your business. Not understanding these stages is the fundamental reason for the failure of a lot of training and teaching in the network marketing industry.
Now back to my surfing experience…
Each summer I would go on the lake and watch people surf and do wakeboarding. It looked so easy. I was at the ‘Unconsciously Incompetent ‘ stage (this is the fantasy stage – ‘Oh, I can do this, I’ve done snowboarding, surfing doesn’t look too hard’).
Next thing you know, my brother calls me and says “Stephane, come over I just bought a surf, let’s go try it.” That second stage is called ‘Consciously Incompetent ,’ (This is the reality stage: ‘Oh my God, what have I gotten myself into – this is so much harder than I thought.’).

Have you ever wondered why some people sponsor 8 out of 10 people they talk to while others can’t find a single prospect interested in their offer?
One of the most important skills to master in this business is how to communicate in a way that gets your prospect to immediately want to join your company or buy your product.
Communication happens in different formats. It can be person-to-person, through a video, through a salesletter. But the structure of your presentation is always the same if your goal is to get an excited prospect anxious to buy from you.
Let’s talk about your salescopy here but keep in mind, the format is the same for a video, an audio or a one-on-one presentation.
Your salescopy is your hard working sales person. Without it, you’re not gonna get very far.
It’s very frustrating because I find people who spend more time on their website design, or on driving traffic and they neglect their salescopy because it’s not as fun.
If what they’re doing to prospect works and it works for you too, then do it.
But don’t buy into the idea that you absolutely HAVE to follow their method because it has to be "duplicatable".
The entire business revolves around two activities :
Traffic – you want to have as many people as possible to talk to and expose your message to. Wether it’s to expose your products or your business opportunity.
Conversion – you have to improve your ability to recruit customers and business builders. Develop your skills to convert a prospect into an interested buyer.
Some people call these two things, marketing and communication. Others say it’s working the numbers and showing the plan.
Whatever method you use, warm market, advertising in newspapers, buying leads, generating your own leads online, etc. you need to improve on those two main activities.

In any given area of your life, you will see a gap between some degree of success and total achievement of a worthwhile goal. The gold medalists are good examples. That difference can be measured by what we call “momentum”.
