Is it Possible To Be Shy and Build a MLM Network
Marketing Empire?
No. That’s what most people will tell you about shy people in sales – that it’s just not
possible. And there is an element of truth to the statement – being shy certainly doesn’t
help your MLM or sales operation. On the other hand, it doesn’t preclude you from
making bank as an Internet marketer, either. It just takes somewhat different strategies
and a little bit of extra work. Here, we’ll take a look at some of the things you’ll need to
do differently to get things going the way you want them to.
Give Up on the Hard Sell
I frequently give this advice to anyone going into multilevel marketing, or Internet
marketing in general. Now, if you’re shy, you probably aren’t the type to go straight to
the hard sell tactics anyway. But, if you’ve been trying to force it, stop. There are a few
reasons this is a bad line of play for you. First of all, if you’re shy, you’re probably not
good at up and pitching things to people. Second, if you’re shy, it’ll show. People only

buy from confident, persuasive people. If you’re not confident, you won’t be persuasive.
This means you won’t make the sale.
Learn to connect with people
Instead of hard sell, try a more attraction-oriented approach. This means you should
spend more time networking with your potential customers, and less time trying to sell
things to them. Listen to their needs and wants, and when it becomes clear that they
need your product or opportunity, present it to them as a possible solution. At this
point, they’ll trust you enough to actually consider it, and, with reasonably high
frequency, will come to you over anyone else. This is a great way to get around in MLM
as a shier seller. It takes more time to set things up this way, but you’ll have a more solid
foundation, and once things take off, it’ll grow faster because you have actual
connections, not just faux friends in the business.
People buy people not companies

This notion of personalizing your marketing is especially important for success in
general, honestly. The richest MLM moguls were lucky enough to be first people on
board. Unfortunately for the rest of us, that’s not so much an option, so we have to stick
with strategy, and this is the strategy you need to employ to build an empire. People like
people, not salespeople, so the best way to combat your shyness is to talk to people one-
on-one (this works even through email, by the way) instead of in intimidating groups,
and to keep their personal desires as your primary considerations.
So what’s the ultimate answer to the question, is it possible to be shy and build an MLM
networking empire? In a word: Yes. It can be. Like I had mentioned, if you can give
your prospect value and benefit in their life, then it’s easier to build a MLM Network
Marketing business. It’s definitely possible. Increasing confidence and communication
will play a vital role in overcoming your shyness. Don’t let your timidity keep you from
being wealthy. The key is to take your uncomfortable feelings to become
comfortable. How do you do that you ask? Take small steps to overcome your
fear. Little by little you will increase your confidence. When this starts to happen when
your shyness will start to fade.
It’s your turn!
