Setting Your Roots Deep

What does that actually mean? A tree cannot survive with shallow roots, sooner or later it will succumb to the pressures of the environment around it.

If you desire to succeed in online marketing, you must set your roots deep with proper training and resist the pressures that are beating down on you on a daily basis.

The problem I have had with online marketing in the past is this… There are millions of people online marketing something. That something is very important to them for about a week and they move on to something else. I know I have done it.

By setting your roots, you need to dig deep, build a foundation, find some people that care about you and your success. Once you find that team you can work with, plant your tree, grow your roots deep and prosper.

Speaking of teams had a great training today from my Mentor Janet Legere talking about follow up in your business.

Follow up is the key to growing your business. People out there need our help and we are doing a disservice to them by not following up with them when the show interest in what we are doing.

If they decide that it is not for them, wish them well and move on and help the next person. In regards to follow up did you know…

48% of all marketers make one follow up call and quit. And that….

25% of all marketers make two follow up calls and quit. And that….

15% of all marketers make 3 follow up calls and quit. And that….

12% of all marketers go back, and back, and back and don’t quit

They make 80% of all sales.

The moral of the story is Don’t Quit! Follow up is the key to your success.

Online marketing is all about relationships. Your contacts are real people not just a number. Touch as many people as you can and treat them fairly just like you like to be treated.
