You may ask what is Networking......
well, you have been doing it all along on here!!!!!!!!!
Making contacts, Following thru with them, Helping them, then to have them turn and do the same for you.
The ads that you place on a message board ultimately leads to building your team. there for alowing you to grow. in turn you have networked with that person.
Most Direct sales companies fall into the MLM industry. However, some don't.... you don't have a downline or an upline... you are you.
MLM for those that don't know, means, MULTI LEVEL MARKETING.
MLM is a broad range. These MLM companies require you to build your team to make money.... some even in a pyramid scheme(which is not a good thing). Others, Like my company, You have your upline for instance, your mentor, executive, upper level exec., then the home office itself, AKA, the owners.
While your down line consists of whom ever signs on under you. then under the ones under you, and so forth.... you know, Gen. 1 Gen. 2 and Gen. 3 and on and on.... some companies pay for 1,2,and 3 some pay for 1 and 2.
this can be complicated to understand for some...... here is a quick break down....
this is you.................... you mentor sally.
sally mentors jill.................jill mentors sue......
sue mentors jamie.
sally is your 1st generation.
jill is your 2nd generation.
sue is your 3rd and jamie is your 4th.
now you add in the people taht make it complicated.
you

sue mary jodi -----------------> 1st
. . . .
. . . .
. . . .
jill lori harry melanie----> 2nd
. . . .
. . . .
. . . .
sally susan jim jon --------------> 3rd
now take into consideration that your original mentees, sue, mary and jodi have all recruited. bringing into the picture jill, lori,harry, and melanie...... jill, lori, and harry have all recruited. melanie hasn't yet. these are YOUR direct downline. your 2nd generation has recruited sally, susan, jim, and jon as your 3rd generation.
Some companies pay only up to 2nd generation while others pay up to the 3rd.
Did this make sense? Probably hard to follow.
but to make it short, you have networked by following the downline of recruits that you have under you and this downline can go on and on.....
I will cover networking outside the business later...
for me its bed time...LOL 3:20 in the morning....LOL
