So what do you do to build your MLM business when you feel you are too introverted or shy to talk to people about your opportunity?

Many new network marketers simply quit. First hurdle and bummm.. they’re gone.

If you’re tenacious but introverted then you need to find a way that can work for you. I think it’s because of challenges with personality types that so many people are switching into attraction marketing online.

On the other hand some of the most popular ways for building a business online are with Social Media Marketing. What does that require to be successful?

Perry Belcher, the king of Twitter and Social Media Marketing likes to say that Social Media is like one big party. So does that mean that if you’re introverted you’re back to square one and the outgoing people win yet again?

Well it can do but the great thing about building an online business is that you can customise your marketing to suit you. It’s not about one size fits all and you either follow this plan or you’re out.

There are days when we all feel more sociable and outgoing than others even if we’re not introverted or nervous of talking to people.

It’s useful to bear in mind that even if you are the most outgoing person on the planet and can talk to everyone on and offline about your business, the chances are that you will have people in your team who have not been blessed with this ease of communication.

Here are the main ways to build your business with social media in a way that can suit every mood and personality type: super shy, outrageously outgoing or somewhere in between!

Social Media for Extroverts
If you are a chatterbox and love connecting and chatting with people then Social Media Marketing is your match made in heaven. Spend some time each day posting items of interest, commenting on the networks such as Facebook and Twitter and actively social networking.

Twitter was made for chatterboxes so your time has come! Many are building their entire business around social media marketing in this way.

Top Tip: Create a blog to link your social profiles to and make sure you add plenty of personality to your content along with a lead capture box and your phone number so that people can call you or opt into your marketing funnel.

Social Media for Shy Pussy Cats.
Shy pussycats also have lots to do! Social Media represents a huge fishing pool for potential prospects. An incredibly effective way to build your MLM business online is to set up your content with attraction marketing so people come to you.

Attraction Marketing was really made for you! You can spend lots of your time attraction prospects into your marketing funnel and you can either set it up so that people call you (if you feel comfortable with that) or you call them once they have reviewed something.

Top Tip: Create content that pulls people to you and if you don’t want people calling you first then don’t put your phone number on your sites, or have your calls go to an answer service. Make sure to have a value based free report to offer so your prospects sign up on your blog or website and are exposed to your opportunity or services before you speak to them.

Most people are somewhere in the middle of these extremes, and you can have networking days or hours for when you are feeling in an outgoing mood. At other times you can work on your online content as there is plenty of quiet work to be done there.

At some point you’ll need to pick up the phone to build a relationship with your prospects but that is so much easier when they are already receiving email messages from you and when you call you are already positioned as someone who is offering them real value, and they feel they know you. Dare I say it but it is even an enjoyable activity!
