The growth and strength of your business is most assured when consistency is present. So... is your network consistently marketing? Network marketing's power lies in leverage. We learn, early in the business, to build a network of people. Each person consistently marketing to a few people results in a lasting residual income for many... along with additional life changing perks that come along with personal growth and development.

Here's the thing... the growth and strength of your business is most assured when that consistency is present.

So... is your network consistently marketing? Or could you use a suggestion or two? Network marketing is a word of mouth business. Products, services and opportunities are shared through recommendation. To ramp up the marketing going on in your network you could add a few techniques to your toolbox.

Maybe one of these 16 Sure-Thing, Must-Do, Awfully Easy Word of Mouth Marketing Techniques from Andy Sernovitz can be added today:

  1. Look on the web for people talking about you or your product. 
  2. Decide who will join those conversations. Start today.
  3. Create a blog. 
  4. Make a new rule: Ask “Is this buzzworthy?” in every meeting.
  5. Come up with one buzzworthy topic. Keep it simple.
  6. Put something by your front door that will remind people to talk to a friend.
  7. Let your talkers sign up for a private newsletter.
  8. Pick one easy way to track word of mouth.
  9. Put a tell-a-friend form on every page of your website. This includes share buttons to social media sites like Facebook, X and LinkedIn.
  10. Put a special offer in an easily forwardable email.
  11. Add a small gift and a word of mouth tool to every package you sell.
  12. Have a private sale for your talkers.
  13. Apologize for mistakes and solve problems fast.
  14. Partner with a charity.
  15. Do something unexpected.
  16. Be nice.

And here's a bonus... Do something worth talking about! Network marketing is about being good to people. The word of mouth created by people who know you, like you, like your stuff and share your interests is more powerful than any advertising in the world. Our business is a wonderful thing, grown by happy people. Be happy and go find people interesting in being happy too.
