Dumating ka na ba sa point na may pampuhunan ka pero nagkaroon ka pa din ng dilemma sumali sa isang money making opportunity tulad ng networking?

Yung tipong binabalik balikan mo yung mga posts ng friend mo sa Facebook dahil active siya sa business niya at nakikita mong kumikita siya. Okaya naman, naa-attract ka sa produkto dahil hilig mo ang mga pampaganda at pampaputi.

Sa ganitong sitwasyon, 'wag kang excited! Kailangan mong pag isipan ng mabuti kung magjojoin ka o hindi. Minsan, tama ang dilemma mo dahil merong mga factors kung bakit pinipigilan nito ang sarili mo sumali. Here are the steps before getting yourself involved:

Step 1. Know-how

Ang ibig sabihin nito, how much information do you know about the company, product, and the people behind the company? Kailangan mo ito palawakin by doing research online. Kung friend mo man ang involved sa company, never hesitate to ask! Mag inquire ka lang and be objective as possible sa pag acquire ng information. May tendency na ipapawer ka ng friend mo pero the point of your inquiry is to get details of the business. You need to focus. Kung mayroon siyang maibibigay na link ng video presentation, then much better! Your goal here is to get information by yourself.

Step 2. Keep Calm and Try-it-Yourself

If you are satisfied with step 1, since may pampuhunan ka naman, much better to try the product yourself first. This step will take time at 'wag aapurahin. It's okay na may mga existing testimonials na na-share yung friend mo pero your goal is to know the product better by personal use. This way, it will be easier for you to sell the product eventually. Kung herbal products/supplements ang involved dito, you may want to consult a specialist first before mo ito inumin or ipainom sa ibang tao since most of these products have no therapeutic claims. If you are in abroad naman, pag usapan niyo kung ano payment method and means of delivery para maging smooth ang transaction niyo.

Step 3. Know your customers

Pag satisfied ka na on both steps 1 & 2, that's the time you have to evaluate your target market. Of course, it is important to understand your target market since sila ang potential customers mo sa iooffer mong products and/or business opportunity. Some of you may know the concept of KKK (Kapamilya, Kaibigan, Katrabaho), well marami tong combinations... lol... The idea here is to come up with a list of people na kakilala mo na pwede mong offeran business opportunity or bentahan ng products mo. If you have a few, then think again, baka yung product or business opportunity ng friend mo hindi pasok sa 'yo.

Step 4. Pull the trigger!

Kapag shoot na sa banga ang steps 1,2 & 3 mo, you may start contacting your friend at mag sign up na sa business opportunity na inooffer niya. Diskarte niyo nang dalawa yan kung paano niyo ito gagawin dahil the steps will vary depending on the nature of the business opportunity na papasukan mo.


By following these simple steps, I'm sure mababawasan na ang risk of losing dito. Considering the location of the business plays a very important part but since network marketing ang pinag uusapan natin dito, ikaw na din mismo ang pagkukuhanan ng products ng mga customers mo.
