Hey, hey, welcome to today’s episode. My name is Brandy Shaver and I am one of the founders here at Beach Boss Influencers, and today we are talking about how to grow your network so that you can grow your net worth. Okay? So when you got started in network marketing, you had something called a warm market. Let me know wherever you’re watching this video, if you had a warm market, someone told you when you first got started, make a list of your 20 most whatever people, or your a hundred most whatever people. And, uh, let’s go talk to those people, right? So I want you to think about how that network was built, okay? That network is your net worth right now. That’s what you are worth, is that network of people based on, um, the way network marketing works, right? And so when I got started, I had a small network of people, right?

I’d spent time in my life building a few relationships, and I’m more of an introvert, right? I don’t go out and like join clubs and all those things. I mean, I was on the drill team and cheerleading when I was in high school, but then I had a family and I was home and doing my own thing, and I didn’t have a ton of, um, you know, people to go talk to. So when I got started, I quickly blew through my network. And what I found was that once that network was gone, and your network is people that know, like, and trust you, okay? Someone you could call up right now and say, Hey, Jenny, you know what? I just got started in a project and I wanna share it with you. I wanna work with you. I wanna show you what this is gonna look like, and let’s take a look at doing this together right now, Jenny, it might fit for Jenny and it might not, but if you don’t have people to call up and say, Hey, take a look at this, you’ve got to build a new network so you can grow your net worth.

Okay? Now, this is really hard for a lot of people to understand. They think once they take their business online that it’s gonna be super simple, okay? And I was one of those people I thought, you know what, I’m gonna put a post out there and I’m gonna talk about how amazing my company and my products are, and how much money they pay me, and it’s gonna be amazing, and everybody’s going to enroll, right? Well, what I found out is that is not how this works, right? What I found out is that when you come online, there’s some things that you have to do to grow that new network, okay? So remember, um, that it’s important to always build the no I and trust. And for me, when I was out of that network of people in my small town where I live, I decided to go belly to belly with people and went to malls and, um, you know, waitresses and three foot rule and all those things. Then I got online and started sending spammy messages to, you know, people that I had went to high school with that don’t live near me. And I’d be like, Hey, Gary, I have this opportunity that I wanna put in front of you. Um, you know, what’s your phone number? And he said, you know, I’m married, right? Like, so I was in a lot of interesting situations that are super funny that I can go on for days and days and days and days, but I thought that the short-term sacrifice for long-term gain was going to work for me. And after two and a half years of doing old school prospecting three foot rule and sending weird messages on social media to get people to talk to me, I sat down and evaluated and thought, you know what? This doesn’t make sense. I’m not getting anywhere. This isn’t working for me. And so I started to learn how to build online. Now, the best thing about building online is that you can do a video, and guess what? There’s gonna be people that wa are watching this on the replay. And if you’re watching this on the replay, and this is not live, I want you to drop who you are because I want people to see that you watched this on the replay. In fact, drop hashtag replay, because if you’re not seeing it live, you’re seeing it on the replay.

And guess what? I’m probably, if you’re watching this on the replay, doing something else at that time, right? But this video is out there and it’s building the no I and trust with someone that’s watching it, right? Maybe you’ve never met me before and this is the first time we’re meeting, and now you know what my face looks like, you hear my voice, and next time you see me, you’re like, oh, that’s that girl that was talking about your network is your net worth, right? So online, there’s so many more benefits than building old school, okay? Now, I’m not saying old school doesn’t work, it totally does. It’s just guess what everybody’s staring at right now. This is, this is how we function, is our cell phones, right? And we’re touching our cell phones, we’re talking to our phones, we are doing all kinds of things with our phones, phones more than we’re actually touching and talking to real humans, okay?

So that’s the way the world is right now. So what I sat down and evaluated was, this isn’t working. I gotta figure this out, right? So there’s something that has to happen on social media before you just go out there and throw out this incredible message. Hey, I’m, I’m building this incredible team, join my company right now. If you’ve been online and you’ve built an audience of people and you’ve been online for a long time and you have a following, you could do that and be successful. But guess what most people have, they don’t have that. They’ve never been online. Most people have never taken a selfie. They don’t wanna be on Facebook. They’re more lurkers. They wanna see what everyone else is doing, but they don’t wanna post their face. We wanna be behind our computer. We don’t wanna be, you know, out in the open, vulnerable, exposing ourselves to everyone, right?

And I was that person. I had never taken a selfie before I decided to build my business online. So let’s get into how we do this. All right? So number one, step number one is you have got to build a new network of people. Okay? Now, how do you do that? Okay? The fastest way to do that is to become a tour guide for other people. And the way that I did it, that was super successful. I’ve built two multimillion dollar businesses doing this now, and that is to become a tour guide and teach other people how to build their businesses on social media. Okay? Now, my perfect prospect, a network marketer, so you’re probably a network marketer if you’re hearing this message, right? And my message talks directly to network marketers. How do you build your business using social media? How you can grow your network so that you can grow your net worth, right?

These are things that networkers are looking to do. Okay? So number one, build a new network on social media. I would suggest if you’re a network marketer, that you start figuring out how to build online and you start teaching other people. Now, I know a lot of you just went, holy crap, now I gotta become a teacher. Guess what? Just think of it as being a tour guide. You learn something and you’re going to teach it to someone else, okay? Just like gardening. If I learn how to do something, that’s cool, my neighbors will come over and be like, Hey, where’d you get that plant? How did you make that grow? Right? Same thing. It doesn’t mean that you have to be an expert with thousands of people in your team. It means you maybe learn how to do a reel on Instagram and you show other people how to do that same reel on Instagram so they can get the same results, right?

So the other way that you can do this is that you can, um, become a piece of an affiliate company or a part of an affiliate company. And it just so happens that Beach Bus Influencers has a kickback program that you can, um, enroll in and start getting a kickback, okay? I’ll drop the link for you if you want. You can start sharing live videos, you can do whatever you want and share your link on there. And then you get a kickback when they buy something or they enroll, okay? And maybe wants to say hi because she’s being a pain right now, because of course I’m live, right? So the pugs are always in the way. All right? So what you do is you are going to grow, you’re going to change, you’re gonna learn skills, you’re gonna get more skills. And this is what’s gonna happen is you are gonna grow the no like and trust with other people, okay?

You’ve gotta learn to serve other people. Now, as an example, okay? If you just put out an ad out there in the, in the world and you’re like, Hey, I just joined the most amazing company in the world. They have, you know, the best products, they have an incredible comp plan. 98 perc, 98.9% of people are not going to enroll. Okay? Drop me a comment. If you agree, let me know what you think about that because I can guarantee you if they don’t have the know I can trust with you, they’re not joining you in your company. It’s just how it works. It’s human behavior, right? We’ve got to learn to build our network first, and that’s where we serve people. And I want you to think about this because we are such a microwave society. It’s right now, right? It’s Amazon Prime, two day shipping.

Some places you have, um, next day shipping, some days you have the same day shipping. Like, it’s crazy, right? And we think this is how our relationships should go with building our businesses. We think if we just put up the post, everybody’s gonna enroll and we’re gonna be a billionaire top of the company, right? Well, that’s not how it works. It’s not about your product and opportunity. It’s about you. It’s about the skills you can provide, how you serve other people, all those things, right? People join you. And I know you’ve probably heard that before. So the next piece that ends up happening is you start to brand yourself as someone that can serve other people. And people start to see you as a, um, what’s the word? As a person of influence, right? As per somebody that knows more than they do. And it’s not necessarily like, oh, I’m top of the company and you know, I’m making millions of dollars.

It’s literally, oh my gosh, Brandy’s a normal person, right? She has pugs that are bugging her. Her kids will probably walk in, she’s a mom, you know, she’s doing all of these things. I can do that too. Okay? So you wanna really focus on being who you are and being authentic on social media and sharing your vulnerability, sharing your struggles, and really showing them that they can do this too. Okay? So here’s what something that I want you to understand when someone starts to come to you, cuz this is gonna happen, when it starts to come to you, it’s go when people start to notice and they start to, you know, really like, comment on your stories or you know, say something on your posts or whatever, I want you to remember that when they ask about your company and joining you, you want to say, Hey, are you interested?

Or are you looking for a home? Okay? Now, if they’re just curious, if you, they’re just curious, are you curious? Are you looking for a home or are you interested? Or are you looking for a home? If they’re just curious, just tell them they can go Google it, right? We don’t need to waste time on people. There’s so many people out there that are looking for you and waiting for you. We don’t need to waste time on people that are just curious. We don’t have time for tire kickers, those kind of people, but we wanna remember that growing an audience takes time. Okay? Six months, a year, however long it takes you to actually start doing video and to get consistent. So that’s something that’s important, all right? Now, once you have this new audience of people and you’ve served them, maybe you’ve shared with them, um, you know, beach Boss influencers courses, maybe you’ve made a kickback on ’em, you know, and you’ve, you’ve helped them, you’ve served them, you’re doing live videos, you’re showing them how to build their businesses on social media.

Maybe they’re in a different company right now and you’ve just built that relationship, right? This is when you can start to promote to that audience. And again, you can either promote a kickback offer, okay? It could be a product that you are getting an affiliate commission on. It could be Beach Boss influencers, um, for people that wanna build businesses on, um, social media. It could be join my team and you give them your enrollment funnel, okay? It could be as simple as that. And people go through that. They, um, you know, fill out a quiz, they book appointment, you jump on with those people, make sure they’re a fit for your team. And you have tools and skills and resources that you’ve put together for your team. And then it ends up being, you know what, why am I trying to build this business by myself over here trying to do all this by myself?

Why don’t I join you and we’ll team up and we’ll do this together, right? This is how it happens. But I want you to remember something that this is not a microwave, okay? It’s gonna take some time. You are literally going to have to spend at least six months to a year building an audience of people before you’re gonna get any sort of like real, um, you know, like a lot of results, okay? Now you can get results, but I mean, enrolling in, um, masses, right? So for instance, right now I can go do a webinar and because I’ve built my business this long since 2016, I can go do some sort of webinar, I could do a masterclass, I could do something. And whatever I tell them to do, they will do it. I’ve done a webinar before, um, in the last few years and enrolled like, I think it was like 112 people in the first, I don’t know, three days or something of doing that webinar.

And there’s some things I learned from that, right? There’s some things I learned and that one of them is to not enroll people without meeting, meeting with them. Cuz not everybody’s a fit for your team. So make sure that you are understanding it’s not a microwave, Kay? I want you to play the long game. Social media is a long game and it’s about serving other people. And as soon as you switch that in your mind, everything will change for you, okay? There’s been been times that I’ve gotten on a Zoom with someone just to show them how to share their screen, okay? Because I was that person, I was that person. And yes, does that take time? It does. But that’s how you build relationships with real human beings and real human beings is who enrolls in your team. So hope you got value added today.
