Do you ever go to a social event and watch people? I mean just watch how they interact with each other. You pretty much see two types of people.
There are those that are “people magnets” and then there are those that are “people repellants”. Of course, as network marketers, we want to get to the status of become people magnets. But how?
One of the things that your average person lacks is the fact that we don’t take responsibility for the relationships in our lives. What I mean by this is we want people to approach us by “an act of nature”.
In general a lot of us don’t initiate a relationship at all. According to John C. Maxwell, in order for you to have a solid relationship that brings fulfillment, you have to change your mindset when it comes to dealing with others.
Here are four ways he came up that will help you:
PLACE A HIGH VALUE ON PEOPLE
You want to expect the best out of people. Assume that their motives are good unless they prove otherwise. Give them your friendship rather asking for theirs.
LEARN TO UNDERSTAND PEOPLE
Listen to people. The best conversations are the ones about the other persons. Keep in mind the following truth’s about people:
- People are insecure……give them confidence.
- People want to feel special……sincerely compliment them
- People desire a better tomorrow……show them hope
- People are selfish….speak to their needs first
- People get emotionally low….encourage them
- People want to be assicated with success…..help them win
GIVE RESPECT FREELY BUT EXPECT TO EARN IT FROM OTHERS
Give respect to others, but this doesn’t give you the right to demand it in return. You have to earn it. If you respect yourself, respect others, and exhibit competance, others will almost always give you respect.
COMMIT YOURSELF TO ADDING VALUE TO OTHERS
“Carve your name on hearts and not on marble” – Charles Spurgeon
The best way to do this is to add value by:
- Looking for ability in others
- Helping others discover their ability
- Helping others develop their ability
If you want to make relationships a priority, you must check your motives to be sure you are not trying to manipulate others for your own gain.

ANOTHER GREAT WAY TO TARGET SPECIFIC BLOGS
August 5, 2010 in Steps To Becoming Successful | Tags: Another Great Way To Target Specific Blogs, blog blogging, comment luv, commentluv, how to make money blogging, increase blog traffic, make money blogging, network marketing tips, online blogging | 23 comments
When I started looking for ways to better my business I looked in two places: Google and YouTube. What I found was a lot of information on network/internet marketing.
I ran into a lot of new terms such as attraction marketing, backlinks, social bookmarking, etc…and although I know what these terms mean now, back then, the information was overwhelming.
The one great thing I like about blogs is that they are short and usually talk about one subject. So if I wanted to find something about attraction marketing, usually a blog will focus on that subject.
Another great thing about blogs are the comments as long as they’re valuable. I look at them as the extension of a blog. If a person added a valuable comment, I would go into their blog and see what I can learn from them. If I found some amazing information in these blogs, I would go ahead and share them.
It has gotten to the point to where I prefer to read blogs over listening to training calls, or even audio CDs. It feels like I gain more value with blogs and yet I get to know the person.
One site I discovered through reading blogs, would be considered a blogging community site. I found it very helpful and convenient.
This site works with google and you can actually target the blogs that you want to read!!
Let’s just say that you want information about feedreaders for your blog. You can actually type this in, and this site will do a google search. Once its done, it list some of the top sites that you can go to about feedreaders.
You can also check the rankings of these blog sites if you go to http://www.alexa.com. The better the ranking, the more traffic the site gets and the more that you’re exposed via your valuable comments.
Comment Luv is the site I’m talking about and if I was you, I would go ahead and create an account. It has more beneficial features that you can learn about.
So if you’re looking for another great way to get more traffic with your blogs and at the same time learn tips and tricks on how to grow your business, Comment Luv is the way to go.
