“Make money or make excuses, pick one"
Business Initiator is for networking and engaging
Business Initiator is for networking and engaging your visitors, customers and prospects. Your friends, group members, connections, etc…do not want to see a constant stream of your “advertising” just like they don’t want telemarketers calling them on their home or cell phones all the time. All they have to do is go to your page and block
Did you know that the Business Initiator have features that help you avoid people who are only there to “advertise” their business? Well on the Business Initiator people can delete you as a friend and elect which emails they receive.
Using Business Initiator.ning.com for business does NOT mean “advertising” your business.
Business Initiator should be used to:
1. Build an awareness of your business by having a presence on the website.
2. Share useful, relevant information that positions you as an expert in your field.
3. Interact with friends and visitors to build or strength relationships.
4, Answer questions that pertain to your industry or area of expertise so people start seeing you as a one in the know.
5. Provide others with new methods and information that you come across that relates to their business or providing them with referrals. (Get the more you give the more you get attitude.)
6. Improve your Customer Service, Public Relations, Technical Support, Customer Retention or Employee Recruiting efforts by expanding your reach and providing real-time answers or information.
7. Gain business knowledge that will keep you on top of your game.
8. See what your competitors are doing.
9. Read what others are saying about your company, product or service and respond to their complaints, concerns, questions or compliments!
10. Find people and resources that can help you grow your business.
11. Build relationships with potential joint venture partners.
Just use these steps and you will also generate leads and increase your sales. Without this approach your presence on the Business Initiator could do more harm than good for your business!
Social networking for business is NOT advertising, it is NOT a monologue…it is a conversation.
