If there’s one single thing we can all do that works as a miracle formula for home business success it’s this:
“Always try to see things from the other person’s point of view”.
Of course, other people may be totally wrong – they often are. But always remember….
THEY DON’T THINK SO!
Think for a moment about the passionate involvement you feel in your own affairs compared to the mild interest you feel about everything else.
And then bear in mind that every single person you’ll ever meet feels exactly the same way.
It’s not selfishness, it’s not egocentric, it’s simply human nature. We’re wired that way to preserve the species.
So before you ask anyone to do anything, always ask yourself,
“Why would they want to do it?”
It sounds simple and, like most of the “magic bullets” for success in life and in business, it IS simple in theory but less so when you come to put it into practice on a day-to-day basis.
But if you continually practice the habit of trying to put yourself into your prospect’s shoes it will affect every single thing you do – from the way you approach your marketing to the conversations you have with prospects to the way you deal with new team members.
Think about the ads you see or the marketing emails you’ve received in your search for the best home business.
Are you likely to respond to a marketing message of the “me me me” variety? You know the type I mean, they usually go along the lines of, “This is incredible, you have to check this out right now”.
In that kind of marketing it’s blatantly obvious that the marketer doesn’t give a **** about YOU, you’re just a faceless punter with a credit card.
But if you keep asking yourself “why would they want to do it” whenever you’re marketing, everything you do will be more effective.
It’s just like crossing over the street to see the view from the other side.
If you’d like to see the view from MY side of the street, come on over, I’d love to meet you!
