I have been talking to a few other people involved with network marketing lately about building their social networks online. People involved with network marketing come from a variety of backgrounds, but a common theme with many is that they are not really educated on how to build an online social network.

First let me say that in at least one respect it is similar to building any other type of social network. In order to get anywhere, establish good connections, you must have credibility. In network marketing you always hear the stories of some guy that was only in the program two weeks, two months or some other short amount of time and started making an extraordinary income. Now that's fantastic, but really not the usual story. Network marketing affords a person to earn an enormous amount of money, especially in respect to the amount of monetary investment, yet earning that money does not come overnight.

Social networking is the same, you can build a large social network, it takes time and it is work. Oh No! Not that dreaded four letter word, work! LOL

So basically I decided to start this thread to talk about building a large social network. Any questions you have shoot them my way and I will get the answers to you. I specialize in two networks, Linkedin and Twitter. I don't really mess around with all of the other social networking sites. If you can manage more than those two, more power to you. As I write this I have close to 5,000 connections between all of my different Twitter accounts and Linkedin. Twitter grows daily and on Linkedin I get 100 plus connection requests each week. In order to manage these accounts and effectively work with my connections, I don't have time for Facebook and all of the other sites that have popped up.
