Avoid Annoying Marketing Methods

Network marketing companies sometimes train their distributors to use annoying marketing methods. For instance, they teach them to approach people in public, hand them their business card, and proceed to enlighten them all about their products and their compensation plan. If you make a habit of this, people will start to run at the mere sight of you!

Here are some good ideas that draw people to you without you having to say a word:

Email signature. Set this up with a message about your business and/or products. A lot of people will see your email signature because some emails are forwarded numerous times. This is a very non-threatening way to promote your business. The recipient can ignore it altogether, or actually visit your website, email you, or give you a call if they want.

Personal website. Provide information about yourself and your business. Give your website visitors ways to contact you such as an email address or phone number.

Car magnets or decals. A business name, phone number, and website address are in plain view for all to see as you go through your day. Anyone who wants to know more has all the information they need to reach you.

Post cards. Send them to people you know, or to leads (business opportunity seekers). Provide information about your business and a way to reach you. They should be sent on a monthly basis for at least six months to prospects. If the recipient is not interested, they can simply toss the card.

Company apparel. Wear anything with your company logo. Ball caps, visors, sweatshirts, t-shirts, etc. These items sometimes draw interest.

Business cards. You can leave them at restaurants with tips, in envelopes when you pay bills, at the bank, the doctor’s office, etc.

Catalogs. Leave company catalogs in public restrooms, laundry mats, waiting rooms, etc.

Free samples. If you have a consumable product, give out free samples to friends, bank tellers, hair stylists, receptionists, or anyone else that you come into contact with.

Classified ads. Place an ad in your local newspaper, or any newspaper. Place online ads also.

Online forums. Ask questions and offer information. Include your website address in your signature.

These are all great ways to promote your business without annoying anyone. Any of these methods may pique a person’s interest enough to contact you about buying your products or wanting to join your company.
