Years ago people lived miles from each but still considered each other as neighbors. They actually made an effort to seek out their neighbors and visit from time to time. Nothing like sitting around the radio or out on the porch just sharing time together. We have advanced from the porch to Internet. Email and other features give us instant access around the world.
Internet Marketing is an entirely different world from anything else.
One of the best ways to become successful in marketing is to establish connections with the people you are working with. Get in touch with your downlines, your uplines to let them know that you are a real person. Sit around on the porch with them a while and get to know them a bit. It does matter how much persistence, determination, and focus you have in your quest. But you cannot get to the top of your field alone.
