I think what our reps are missing is that these tools are only good at best in terms of prospecting and lead generation, but they're awesome at staying in touch and working with your existing team. Also, the idea of leveraging what we publish is so huge. Reps get in trouble when they stray from what is for sure compliant. Of course, that makes our job as corporate stewards to get as many relevant things published as possible. bd @bdunc1 Preach it, brutha!

This will help build relationships and ensure that when recommendations are needed your colleagues can put a face with a screen name.

I was on a forum a couple days ago and these reps were talking about how they've gotten nothing out of Twitter because they haven't sold any products. My immediate reaction is that you're not there to sell products until they feel like they know and like you enough to buy from you. As Dave mentioned above, it's about adding Value and so much more. It's all about value. Give before you get. Seth Godin writes about it in his new Linchpin which is fantastic and Chris Brogan in Trusted Agents. It's all about building relationships, whether you're online or offline. Great post! I wish more direct sales and network marketing folks get this :). Janette Excellent tips!

When your comments, posts, social status, etc. bring value to the lives of internet users your content becomes viral. I recently saw an article that I had written republished on a Russian article directory and videos being placed on newbie sites looking for good content for their readers. You talked about developing a relationship and also being a professional online which is all about balance. This is a good article to share! When you bring value to your readers, then the readers share your info on other sites. I will twitter, facebook and otherwise "social-ize" this to my followers whose lives it will impact. The "net" in networking in action. Providing value is what the internet is all about.
