This year is going to be an interesting one as the economic outlook means that the number of job vacancies and promotions are likely to be even less than was the case last year. Capital Economics, for instance, recently forecast that employment in the UK will decline by 0.7% over the coming year, having declined by 0.2% over 2010. An increasing number of firms, across a wide range of industries, are tightening their budgets despite hopes of an economic recovery. So it’s going to be a very difficult employment market in general, however…

…Selling skills are still in huge demand and you can still command great earnings if you get the right job and apply a great selling technique!

I also looked up “salesperson,” “saleswoman,” “salesman,” “sales clerk,” and my favorite, “sales talk.” The definition for “sales talk” was, “a line of reasoning or argument intended to persuade someone to buy something.” Whenever I do a workshop or teleconference, I frequently ask participants, “What are the words that come to mind when you hear the word, ‘salesperson’?” Invariably, I hear back words like, “manipulative,” “dishonest,” “unethical,” and “sleazy.” In the dictionary, however, when I looked up all of the above sales words, none of the definitions referenced “manipulative,” “dishonest,” “unethical,” “sleazy,” or anything particularly negative. The language in these definitions was actually quite neutral and several of them spoke of value. Unfortunately, in our culture, the words “sales” or “sell” are viewed with disrespect. The words no longer simply mean to persuade someone of the value of what you are offering. Instead they carry the baggage of images of untrustworthiness and deviousness. This is a misconception that does an enormous disservice. Far too often, network marketers buy into this stereotypical image of sales and see the activity of selling as negative and untrustworthy. They feel that if they are selling (or being perceived to be selling), they are doing something that is not quite right or that has the potential to be not quite right. It’s as if there is a line drawn someplace, but they don’t know where that line is or when they’ve stepped over it. It causes them to be cautious and careful and worry about how they are perceived. This anxiety puts them, in their own minds, at a disadvantage and on a lower level than their prospects and customers. This is a difficult place to be. And it stops many network marketers from taking action.

The reality is- network marketing is selling. Network marketing is persuading people to buy your products and persuading people to join your team. It is persuading them of the value of your products and your opportunity.
