Your Story in Network Marketing | 30 second speech | Jackie Ulmer, Direct Sales Coach and Social Networking Trainer

Developing your story in Network Marketing plays a critical role in your success in prospecting and presenting!

 

I'd love it if this article was titled "Your Story; 30 Second Speech" because it applies to any business person (not just those in MLMs) who struggles to tell his/her story at any networking event.  

 

I included the article here becuase it asks some great questions that will help us craft and tell our mini-networking story.  These questions are the first step.  If you can answer these with confidence, you are well on your way to crafting your mini-story that will lead to richer conversations and connections at networking events.
