It is a proven fact that when most people buy a particular product or service, they buy based upon the person selling the product rather than the product itself. Upon watching this popular reality on ABC called Shark Tank, it is a show were entrepreneurs pitch their ideas or businesses to five venture capital investors in order to get funding for their company, I noticed that the investors were most attracted to the individuals themselves more than the actual business that they presented. This seems to be a reoccurring them within the real world as well because you have icons like Donald Trump, that all they have to do is recommend or put their name or a product and it will sell.
It is important that you try to brand yourself through your own unique personality and establish relationships with every individual on your team. If you end up doing this, it will dramatically increase your chances of success an any business or organization that you decide to join. By helping other people get what they want, it will be a lot easier for you to get what you want.
Before I recommend a product or service to anyone, I first try to establish a good relationship with that person because I can get a better understanding of their individual needs and it will be easier to assess what is best for that particular person.
The funny thing about network marketing is that most people do it all wrong because they try to blatantly sell you before even knowing that you need or want that particular product. When people randomly approach me with an opportunity, I might actually be interested in it, but if they just try to sell me on it without establishing any kind of relationship, I will most likely sign up under another person who takes that necessary time with me to develop the relationship first.
Now that you know the importance of choosing the right sponsor in the opportunity that you choose, now go out and find that person that you will be able to develop a relationship with so that you will achieve success together. If you would like to work with me in any of the opportunities that I am involved with, make sure you check out my “Work With Donny” page and contact me and we will analyze together on which is the best opportunity for you.

Hey Donny!
Great post… I completely agree. I get pitched
every day on so many things in social media.
It’s rare that someone takes the time to get to
know me and my needs before “throwing up”
all over me about their opportunity. I tell you
the ones I do join… don’t do that at all!
All the best,
Kary

That is great information, my blogging partners and I actually made it to the 2nd round of auditions for shark tank. We were this close to making it, but after watching it, I realized we have work to do! I am going to follow your advice.
