I Went Through My Personal Network and Have No One Left to Contact

If you want to succeed in any kind of business, you need to be creative and be able to work through the tough times This push back calls for you to get creative. So you’ve gone through your already established, network, so what!? GDI is about creating new networks and connections so come up with some creative methods to attract new people and try some of ours.

LinkedIn: Connect with anyone you have ever done business with and search for more people in network marketing, affiliate marketing or internet marketing, this is your key demographic for building your network. Search for groups on these topics as well and network online!

Twitter: Search for #networkmarketing and network marketing within tweets and profiles, these are people who understand the industry and may be looking for their next big opportunity.

Local Business and Networking Events: In a tough economy, these events seems pretty common as everyone is trying to get insight into a new business venture or build their network. Attend these events, talk to people and be honest about your experiences and motives. You have a business opportunity to share, treat it as such.

I Don’t Want to Commit

No matter how big or small, any type of time of financial commitment can be scary to a new prospect. If you have someone who is really pushing back we recommend:

Gift Cards: GDI gift cards allow you to give the gift of GDI to anyone who needs a domain, or in this case, wants to get started with GDI, but isn’t ready to commit. The gift cards can be given for 1, 3, or 6 months. Be sure to follow up often with people who receive gift cards!

The 7 Day Free Trial: Our huge marketing tool is still just as effective. Why not give people the chance to get their feet wet with GDI for 7 days and then decide? Be sure to inform these people of all GDI has to offer and even “show them around” with your own videos or our GDI Tutorials.

Isn’t This a Pyramid Scheme?

People often say this when referring to the structure of network marketing. However, network marketing is much like any other business.  GDI operates with one person at the top, much like a CEO, and that’s you! This “pyramid” then expands to levels of others underneath him, much like employees. And those who get in early make the most money.

The only difference between a network marketing model and the standard corporate structure of any business today is that YOU are your own CEO. You start at the top and build down, helping others do the same.

IDN Buying Tip: Follow the Trends

Leave a comment

Trends and fads come and go, and there are a number of ways that businesses and individuals can capitalize on them, domain names being one such way. The key to trends and domaining is the anticipation of a trend. For example when the iPhone first came out, those within in the technology world and those who followed the news, knew that smartphones were about to be huge. A domain like smartphones.com (or.ws!) was a great idea and surely enough sold for $95,000 and is now owned by Samsung. Follow the few tips below for how to pick the best IDNs based off trends.

Stick to What You Know and Understand

In order to anticipate a trend you need to understand it. Don’t try to search for trends in medical devices if you have no interest in them and don’t understand the industry. If you know cars or fitness, look for trends there Things can get a little tricky for IDNs as many time your will be purchasing an IDN in a language you do not speak. To avoid this, turn your energy to global trends, like the example above, smartphones are definitely a global trend.

Use Tools

You can also do your research in a foreign language by using tools like Google Alerts of Google Trends. With Google Alerts you can set a search term and have news and blog results sent right to your inbox. You can see what terms are getting a lot of news coverage and generating chatter across the world and decide on a domain based off of this info.

Google Trends similarly allows you to enter a word or phrase into a search engine and see the trends for that word or phrase. The results can show you where searches are happening, how often, in what language and some top stories associated with your search. This is a great tool for insight into country and language searches to take some guess work out of selecting your IDN.

Trends Come and GO

Some important advice for trend watching is that as quickly as trends start, they can end. Do you research use common and try to anticipate your risk with certain trends. Trend based domain purchases are not for everyone, but they can be a very lucrative investment.
