Intentional Networking - MLM’s Have Poisoned the Well

For most women, the first introduction we had to business, entrepreneurship, and networking came through multilevel marketing companies (MLM’s) which may have created a tainted perception that networking is about being pushy and sleazy.

Join the waitlist for the Making Website Magic School of Business. Are you consistently booking dream projects & making the money you desire in your web design business? OR are you undercharging, questioning your skills, spinning your wheels & saying yes to anyone who will pay you? You CAN have a thriving web design & dev business where you consistently work with aligned clients who actually pay you well. 

In this episode of Making Website Magic, Sam & Karyn deep dive into understanding why you might be feeling uncomfortable when networking and making sales based on your past experiences, plus actionable steps you can take right now to reframe the way you do business into a more intentional, permission-based way. 

Here are just a few of the things we discuss during this episode:

• Why multi-level marketing companies are predatory in nature and how they make themselves appear appealing to join. 
• Drawing the line between cold calls and natural, permission-based conversations.
• Who should be included in your network and how your messaging becomes more authentic when the right people are in your circle.
• Being transparent and giving your network the information needed to make an educated decision on their own rather than persuading them to purchase a product or service they don’t want or need. 
• Untwisting the core functions of marketing and networking that have been skewed over the years by MLM companies. 

Leading with transparency, intentionality, and consent in your marketing will not only empower you as a business owner but will empower your clients as well. Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive empowerment to step boldly into your web design business and to hear even more about the points outlined above.
