I would say first that an open mind to other money making avenues is important, such as with network marketing, but the internet can bog one down with all there is to learn, all of the distractions in the form of tools and training to buy. This is why it's important to have a mentor, and pick one and no more than a couple of people to follow for at least a year while you train and implement... growing your business should come first. Entrepreneurship in any form is not easy, and there is little success except for those who work the hardest! Best of luck to you! Hi Patricia!

While marketing and prospecting are two different approaches on how to garner customers, or sometimes traffic, and marketing is hailed to be much better than the other, these two will still require a lot of risk. :) It's all business after all.

Any business needs to balance their "big picture" marketing programs with the prospecting programs. It's definitely not a black/white decision. One thing I think that is important to keep in mind though is to always TRACK where your time is being spent and also what your results for each of these efforts are. As the old managers saying goes "...if you can't measure it, you can't manage it". Thanks for the thought provoking post. I agree with the overall point being made here.

I agree, while focusing on one, certainly the other is passive! It's a balancing act we all have to employ, taking care that we spend as much time as possible focusing on our money making activities (the prospecting that is!)

In marketing you are leaving an impression to future customers that you are giving them much importance and that you are doing an extra mile in reaching out to them.
