For years we've been taught to identify ourselves as reps for one XYZ company or another.
~We have our fancy business cards printed Angel Correa Camiseta , some letterhead, maybe an address stamp.
~We use the company logo and replicated websites as points of first impression.
~We market ourselves as being associated with that company with abandon ? heck, we even have the T-shirts to prove it!
Sounds okay on the surface, right?
Not right.
Think Like the CEO That You Are
Dedicating your personal image might be okay (or even required!) when you're on salary with some company. After all Nikola Kalinic Camiseta , when you trade your time for money, they do get to call the shots when you're on the clock, don't they.
Sometimes a job can even have a say in how you're dressing or acting in your off hours ? not uncommon.
But what I don't get is why people, who join Network Marketing companies as independent distributors Santiago Arias Camiseta , feel the need to associate their very being a an XYZ distributor.
Why the rush to be labeled as a part of that company?! Are we not CEO and chief bottle washer of our own businesses?
If you think about it, it's really only to the company's benefit for you to parade around in company promotional garb and pay for your 'official' business documents to be printed.
Learn To Brand Yourself
~Become the 'GoTo' guy for your chosen product or service type.
~Promote an image of expertise in a field rather than just another distributor among many.
~Don't marry yourself to any one company ? leave your options open.
~Make every marketing effort that you put forth something that you can benefit from for a lifetime.
By branding yourself, you build that needed 'know, like and trust' that makes sales easiest and you become associated in the minds of the people you are working with as THE person to 'go to' when they're wanting what you've got.

There is an inherent generosity in the human spirit to be of help, to be of service to others. What is it that makes us decide to be of service. What is it that inspires us and encourages us to be of support to others? What is it that makes you want to serve others.
The dictionary describes service as "work done for, and benefit given to another; an act of kindness." As an Interfaith Minister, I have studied the world religions and found the common thread in all religions is The Golden Rule. Treat each other in the exact manner in which you would like to be treated.
His Holiness Jesus Gamez Camiseta , The Dalai Lama says, "My religion as very simple; "my religion is kindness." After the events of the past year, I believe it is kindness that will help the world return to a more loving place. Kindness is what will bring us back to feeling safe and loved and loving.
