Getting Ahead as a New Affiliate Marketer

In many industries, the most successful people have been around for quite some time and for good reason. When one finds success in a business, it’s smart to stay and keep growing that success, which in turn attracts more business. This can be discouraging for anyone just starting out. Luckily as a GDI affiliate you don’t have to be the most experienced or with GDI the longest to build Income for Life. Take advantage of what you do well, whether it’s building relationships or building websites, to develop your business quickly as a beginner.

You Don’t Have to Be an Expert

There are many things you will learn about network marketing just from experience, so don’t worry about being an expert on everything right away. Instead take the time to focus on the relationships you build. Invest just as much time into your team and potential team members as you do into learning about GDI. Building and investing in relationships as you build your network with help people to feel comfortable with you and trust you. People will be more likely to do business with someone they trust.

Build Your Site

If you’re not the best with building personal relationships, you can still succeed with GDI. A well designed, functional site can make up for any issues you have relating to people. Let your site do the talking for you when it comes to building your team.

Take the time to create the best site possible based on your skill level. If you’ve never created any sort of site before, try out the GDI SiteBuilder. It offers great looking templates and can help you get a site up in no time. If you want a more customizable look, try our WordPress plugin. Though WordPress is most often used for blog you can build out your WordPress site to be just about anything you want depending on the theme, widgets and layout you use. We also offer hosting, giving you the ultimate power over what kind of site you create.

Create a Community

Don’t make communication a one way street. Encourage your downline to reach out to you and to each other. Opening these lines of communication can help people feel like they belong to a community, making them less likely to just walk away. Establish relationships across your team by creating groups on Facebook, and Google+ or even having a weekly email conversation or team webinar with everyone. Creating a community keeps people involved and investing in building Income for Life for all involved.
