Let’s face it. People who accept jobs or quit jobs are actually accepting a job with or quitting their boss. Great leaders are likeable, attractive, and they inspire, in others, confidence in their endeavors.  A home networking business depends on those who believe in you and want to do what you are doing. 

An enormous error that people commit is that they attempt to be someone they are not.  Instead of setting the goal to make a lot of connections, they push too hard with the goal of selling.  Your network increases by the amount of people you help.  These people may not join your business right now, but give them time to get to know you and they will.  Construct a solid foundation, a good reputation, and your network will increase drastically. 

The first thing to remember is to make people feel comfortable with you and not feel pressured.  Speak with confidence, but not arrogance.  Do not be overbearing.  And invite your audience to interact.  Whenever you say something, you should mean the words you say.  When you really believe what you are talking about, other people also will.

A place where people can talk with others may include a chance to enquire and receive advice, as well as a place to talk about issues.  Invite conversation, debate and get people excited about what they are talking about.  They can be involved in coming up with solutions and feeling part of the business already.  It may be a good idea, as this will cause interest to increase, and provide a better chance of conversion.   Let the audience lead and listen and understand what is being said. 

Be sure to smile and throw in a few jokes to make people laugh.  Learning is so much easier for people if they are relaxed and able to laugh.  Make sure to maintain warm, inviting body language at all times.  Show trust in your eyes and a relaxed body manner to convey an authentic message.

Personal appearances to promote your business work well if you can get a great response from your audience.  When you have this opportunity, take full advantage of it.  You can steer their thoughts and minds in the direction you want by giving them the information they need, unlike people visiting your website, packaged in a fun and well put together presentation.   These people will have a desire to work with you, if they like you.  They will have faith in you, and because of that they will trust the business and their potentional of success in it.  They will buy into YOU.
