My coach has explained it to me like this- Imagine that you really love to scrapbook. You are so passionate about scrap-booking and love getting other people to try scrap-booking with you. Scrap-booking makes you SO HAPPY and you want to share that feeling with your friends and family. Now imagine you wanted to share that with everyone in your circle, and everyone you meet. When meeting someone new, would you introduce yourself and then try to make this new person scrapbook with you? No you wouldn't! That would be ridiculous! The same premise holds true for promoting your Beachbody business (or any work from home/MLM).
I understand that you LOVE Beachbody. I understand that you LOVE helping others get healthy but no one wants anything shoved down their throats. This also applies to Facebook. Your friends don't want everything that you post to be trying to sell them something or every message to be about some group you should join or product they should try. Facebook is a very smart and quick way to build your business, but only if done correctly.
On the Bombshell Dynasty, we like to follow the rules of FIVE. Pick five main things to post about, and for the most part only post about those things. Post about these five things EQUALLY and often. Need some helping thinking about what those five things should be? Look through your history at posts that got a lot of comments or likes- now post about those things! My five things are 1. My Jeep 2. My Cats 3. Travel 4. Fitness/Beachbody and 5. My Friends/Family. Now for the most part, I only let my business posts be every one in five posts. So if I post 5X a day, then I can post daily about Beachbody or fitness but if I only post once a day, I can only post about Beachbody every 5 days. By doing this I bring value to people's lives in other ways then through Beachbody and people are less likely to feel like I am trying to shove my agenda on them- because that is the last thing that I want! I want the people that I help to WANT the help for themselves, because if they have no personal desire to better their lives- they will ultimately fail. Then I feel like I failed them, and they feel even worse then they did when they started!
