There’s a lot of talk about warm market in the network marketing world. If you’re not familiar with the term, it means people who you know personally, such as family and friends. It also includes people who are part of your wider social circle, such as your children’s friends’ parents, people who go to the same clubs as you, your doctor, dentist, etc. The list is quite long.
The core of your warm market is people you know well. This means your close friends and family. Most network marketing companies recommend your warm market as the first people you should talk to about your new business.
I have one big problem with this. My family and friends have heard me say, “This is it! This is the one!” so many times that they really are sick of hearing it. They might have listened in the past, but they certainly don’t listen any more!
The other issue when talking to your warm market is that many people are skeptical of network marketing. They tend to immediately think, “pyramid selling scam,” and try to discourage you. Not only do they not join you, but – worse – they tell you that you should give up on your new business as well. That’s disheartening enough when you hear it from strangers, but far worse when it comes from people you love.
So, unless you have a very thick skin, I don’t recommend telling your friends and family about SFI. At least, not right away. Once you can show them you are earning money, they will probably become a lot more interested!
What you can tell them about, however, is TripleClicks.
TripleClicks is a very safe way of introducing SFI. It’s just an online store. Many, many people buy from Amazon and eBay, so when you tell them about a new online store you’ve found, that will seem perfectly normal and natural.
Even better, tell them about the penny auctions, and the bargains people are getting through them.
Better still, win an auction yourself, show your new purchase off, and tell people how little you paid for it!
