That's an interesting site you have there. Is that your main passion? Michaelé Hey Kevin,

Yes the personal advertising side on Facebook does feel like a rude interruption for sure!
That’s an interesting site you have there. Is that your main passion?

I don't use facebook to advertise my website, just twitter. I have been interrupted on facebook, but not by a stranger but some obscure friend.

Sadly many people don't yet realized what a turn off it is to have someone on a Social Site pitch their opportunity, when they don't have a relationship with you. Its like saying "I don't care what your interests are and I don't want to get to know you, I just want to make money from you". One of the things I love about blogging, is we have a chance to educate and make a difference. Michaelé Hi Tinei,

Fa'afetai (thank you) for this wonderful blog. You point out alot of good points in here, and being a part of a younger generation in network marketing I find it really helpful. I can see how doing that sort of reaching out would really turn people off to an opportunity, whether they were looking for one or not. :) Once again thanks for the tips, and I hope all is well with you! Alofa, Tinei Hey Michaele!

I just retrieved your comment today! I find it really interesting that so many people seem to think building relationships online are different to every day life offline. As you said, you wouldn't dream of slamming an opportunity card into someone's hand and then run to the next person. You're right, a relationship starts with a smile. Here is mine :) Michaelé Hey Ryan,

So thats where I just found your comment :( I can absolutely relate to feeling overwhelmed with all the opportunity pitches, links etc. It can make the whole Social Networking concept feel pointless until you start sifting out the people that are only there for one reason. I think incorporating Twitter and Facebook into your relationship coaching is an awesome idea! Michaelé Hi Colette,

I had an interesting situation on Facebook yesterday when I sent someone this post in reply to spamming me. It turns out the poor guy spoke Italian and was barely proficient in English so he couldn't understand what I was saying in my video lol. To give him some credit he did seem willing to learn as he asked me why my video wasn't transcribed like most 'international' sites! Lets keep spreading the message :) Michaelé Hi Angela,

You hit the nail on the head with the word 'open'. It seems like quite a strange mindset to have whereby you believe that everyone you speak to is looking for an opportunity. We all need to step up our leadership by teaching our own business partners to listen first, talk second. Michaelé Hey Yo,

Just yesterday I accepted a Linkedin connection and within 5 minutes, someone in India called my phone! I was so puzzled as to where they found my number until they mentioned that I just accepted their Linkedin request. They must have been glued to their computer with a mobile phone in hand, ready for any and every reply lol. What to do *sigh*! Michaelé Hi Oliver,
