Mostly every networking has heard of the Three Foot Rule, if someone comes within 3 Ft of you they are a prospect. What most networkers begin to do is throw up on the prospect with the reasons why they should get into business with them.
Why their company is the greatest with the best compensation plan and the newest secret formula from the Galapagos islands. They tell the prospect how their job is like a prison and they are not living the dream by working for someone else….blah blah blah blah….
SILENCE!
You have no clue if they might really like their job or if it is what they have dreamed of since they were young. All because you want to push your own desires way ahead of theirs
This same approach has even reared its ugly head online. Whether in line in the supermarket or online on the World Wide Web, people still use the “throw up” approach. How many times have you accepted a Facebook friend request from some one and right after they say hi they invite you to the next conference call, webinar or Super Saturday. “Web 2.0″ Three Foot Rule.
The First Secret: The three foot rule is more of a pushing mechanism than a drawer. Even if you get a positive response the duplication (or replication) is impossible, because everyone is not going to do it. So failure is more inevitable than success.
If you can genuinely tap into the one thing that people truly care about your business would explode. This one thing is what moves them and drives them. Why they even bother getting up in the morning.
You get this down and you will never be broke. This one thing can make you extremely effective.
The Second Secret: People don’t care about you as The Three Foot Rule teaches, they care about THEMSELVES… what’s important to them is them. You show more of an interest in them than you do yourself you have a friend and business associate for life. The old saying, “People don’t care how much you know, until they know how much you care” is more true than one may realize.
I remember having a conversation with my wife this past holiday season about how she couldn’t get a word in edgewise when she talked to people because everyone was talking about….yep, you guessed it THEMSELVES. I told her not to get upset and asked her did she listen to what they were saying she said yes. “Well the next time you see them,” I said, “guess what you ask them about”, she said “themselves”. Correct! Because now if she were to decide she wanted them to be a part of anything she was doing they probably would because she showed a genuine interest in them.
I know, “unheard of” for the Three Foot Rule. This brings me to the last secret
The Third Secret: the more value you bring the more sincere relationships you form. Your net-worth is determined by your network. Building a list is your most important job and that is where your riches will come. Your business does not matter, find people’s interest, make it your interest and you will have tapped into a gold mine.

The big money makers on the internet are attributing their success to a mythical form of marketing known as attraction marketing. What is it and how can anyone do it is the most common question heard today.
Many people seem to believe that it somehow unique and different and that it is some form of secret. This is not the case though because all it is, is a fancy name for a marketing technique that is as old as marketing itself. For those who really want to know what it is, this article is about the basics on attraction marketing.
The key to attraction marketing can be found in its name; attraction. When you choose to market something, you have a few options available to you. You can simply throw up a cheaply made single page website, pay loads of cash on advertising and you will make money simply because you are willing to spend it. However, how often will these people become repeat customers for you?
To make your product more attractive, the easiest thing you could ever do is to learn more about it. When you are knowledgeable about the product, you make it more attractive. Anyone can pay loads of cash for an advertising campaign that works, but is it really necessary?
At the same time, you will also need to make yourself more attractive. No we are not talking about going out for a complete make-over and wardrobe change, but rather making your online self more knowledgeable about the product. It is much like killing two birds with a single stone. Simply by researching the product you re marketing, you become knowledgeable; you become an expert and as such can make the product appear more attractive in the process.
The marketing part is actually a whole lot simpler then you would think too. If you think you are going to get a lot of sales from a squeeze page just because others do, think again. Half the people will leave the site the moment they realize it is that type of page. Instead, you need a website that focuses on the product or niche where you can build up your reputation as an expert.
You will need to start attracting visitors and this can be done through several different means. The first is that you can make use of yor own existing networks, or through building a new one. Anyway you look at it though, you will need the traffic and referred traffic is always better then search traffic because the click through rate is substantially greater.
