MLM Business and Creating Trust with Social Media

Do you think it’s easier to build trust and respect for someone through Social Media?

Who’s MLM business would you rather join? Someone who’s called and emailed you, or someone you’ve grown to like, trust and respect on Twitter, Facebook or video?

The internet has evolved in huge leaps and bounds over the years. It was only about 7 or 8 years ago, when the only way you could get to know someone on the internet, was by visiting their website, meeting them on a forum, speaking in a chat room or talking over the telephone.

I loved it when people started putting their photos online (even before Flickr existed) and I could get to know people by seeing their photos. And, we used to encourage people in our team back then, to have a “Face page”, which was a page about themselves.

Now, with all the social media networks, it’s so much easier to get to “know, like and trust” people.

Say you’re looking for someone you’d like to do business with, which is your most favored Social media place to get to know them?

Do you start off with Twitter? You might come across someone on Twitter who keeps sending you really valuable information you’re interested in. You might find that this person is helping you a lot.

However, you’d really like to see more of this person, so you go off to facebook and find them there. They are interacting and communicating with a lot of people, and you start interacting so this person can get to know you.

While you’re at Facebook, you make friends with your Twitter person’s friends, and one of them has some videos you watch on YouTube. Now, video is probably the best social media form (for most people anyway), where you grow to trust people. Especially if the video is of the person looking at you directly. You feel like they’re in the same room with you, and they’re speaking to you personally.

So, which Social Media platform do you like best for getting to know someone?
