Brought to you by:

The most of important part of your business is branding

yourself. When you were a kid did you know who the Avon lady or

Tupperware seller was in your town? Most likely you did because

they branded themselves. They made it known who they were and

what service they offered.

The more people that know about you the more money you

make, right? Make sure that have a strong online presence as well

as locally. The more times Google finds your business listed the

higher it ranks you! Don't forget to use your products when you give

gifts.

When it is Christmas time and I need a special gift you need

to make sure I know that you have what I need and where to find

you. If I decide today is the day that I am going to try Jamberry Nail

Wraps make sure you are easy to find. If I search for Jamberry

wraps in your city will I find you? Yes, people do search for local

reps online.

The best way to brand yourself is with your

own website or blog. Why would you share the

same link your competition does? And what do

you do when Facebook blocks your business

link? You need your own domain name to brand

yourself. Make it simple and easy to remember.

You can search for names at Go Daddy and get

cheap web hosting. Every time you post the link

to your website the search engines find it and

add it to your total ranking. More links mean a

higher ranking! If you can post a status update

with a photo on Facebook you can run your own

blog! The search engines love Blogs! Every time

you make a post the search engines come to

see what is new. Do you Twitter? Your blog can!

Your posts can be sent to your Facebook page

and your Twitter automatically! Increase your

online presence easily! You can get your own

blog for Direct Sales Reps here at

ProfitsPlusMore Blogs.

Facebook Groups: Advertising in Facebook groups can be very effective. If you are always

branding yourself you will be posting the link to your website in every group you can find that

matches your business.

More links = higher ranking.
