Irene Kirkman is teaching small business owners  Relationship Selling Principles which will translate into more prospects/customers, more sales and higher customer retention through repeat business. Building relationships is paramount to lasting business success.  For more information on this topic: http://relationshipselling.org As much as we would like to build our business completely online; offline tools such as the telephone and good old snail mail have their place. Many I talk to are leaving money on the table. So much energy has gone into getting leads that most have no idea on what to do next. Combining online methods with a sales follow up system such as the picking up the phone or sending business thank you cards and developing Relationship Selling skills or consultative selling skills are of critical importance.

Send Out Cards as an Affiliate

Frustrated network marketers are coming online in droves. They have gone through their "list" of family and friends, they no longer want to be 'on' whenever they go to their childs soccer game or the grocery store. They may even have been pumped up enough after a conference to go mall crawling. Or they may have resorted to buying leads which can be really tough on our confidence level. One can only take so much rejection!

The problem that many are running into when they venture online and immediately begin promoting their company is that most everyone is already in an MLM. Everyone thinks their company is the best and that their products are the best. Network marketers are a very loyal crowd. They only begin to look elsewhere after they have been severly disillusioned.

The beauty of online marketing is that there is a marriage going on between internet marketing, network marketing, and affiliate marketing. Ina for short. (check out my wedding photo! LOL)

The beauty of affiliate marketing is that you can make money now. There is a learning curve involved in bringing your business online. Why not learn to monetize?

Ann Sieg of Renegade Network Marketer fame chose Send Out Cards as her primary MLM simply because it was compatible with most every company. The achilles heel for most network marketers is follow up. This company will print your message in your own font, add your picture, even add a gift card and stuff, stamp and mail your card via snail mail.  If you are familiar with e-mail autoresponders, a postal auto-responder works much the same way.

As an affiliate it will get your business running in the black very quickly. It pays out a $120 coaching bonus when people sign up as either wholesale buyers or entrepreneurs.

It's a great way to tap your warm market while you are learning the ins and outs of coming online. People are more likely to pick up the phone or respond to your email if they have a card with your picture, your signature and message offering to help them grow their business. Where email can be deleted in a fraction of a second a card is a collateral marketing piece which is generally not thrown away.

Check out my hub for more on why I recommend Send Out Cards Ann Sieg style.
