Over Hyping of Prospect (Networking)

What is Over Hyping? 

Answer: It is exaggeratedly promoting a product, service or idea or sa networking tinatawag na sobrang pambabaliw ng prospects. 

Well alam naman natin na lahat ng sobra ay masama. Hindi naman masama mambaliw kasama sa pagiging networker yun pero ang sobra lalo na kung may kasinungalungan na e masama na yan. 

Pamilyar ka ba sa ganitong istorya?

"Dati lang akong jeepney driver, pero ngayonkumikita na ako ng 50,000 per week (showing his payout check sa mga nakapalibot na guests\invites), at ngayon hindi na jeep minamaneho ko kundi sarili kong auto!" (sabay turo sa bagong labas na Ford Expedition) "Grabe! Power dito! Payaman! Laway lang ang puhunan, 2 to 3 hours lang per day tapos after a week, ayan na, Cheke-cheke na!" 

Another one. . .

"Ay, power talaga dito guys! Sinong mga first timers?  Grabe talaga ito!" POWER!!

And another one. . .

Nung una negative pa nga ako nung iniimbita ko mas gusto ko pa kasi ang  hindi pa kasi ako naniniwala noon pero ngayon eto na ko iniwan ko na ang trabaho ko at finufull time ko na to.

After ng MAM, BOM or business presentation very common strategy na ginagawa ng mga Networkers nowadays. 

"I am not telling na mali itong strategy na ito. I just want to share my thoughts about unethical practices of some networkers."

If you are a first timer in this kind of environment at kung makarinig ka ng mga ganung istorya, I'm sure na "mababaliw" ka talaga. Kasi yung nagtatalk totally walang-wala or mahirap, then in a matter of months, kumikita na ng malaki, and now driving his own car,in which mahirap ma-attain kung nasa normal na pag-eempleyo ka lang.

Many of them truly able to achieve those in a very short period of time, but some of them didn't shared the whole story behind their super quick success and worse some of them are just making lies to attract people to join in their opportunity which is very unethical.

Some forgot to tell you that. . .

The speakers (usually the top earners) have been to Networking business  for more than a year and been to several Networking companies. It means that they already have the experience, skills, and knowledge needed in order to succeed in that business.

They already have established contacts and followers (could be their uplines, downlines, or crosslines from their previous companies) na willing sumama sa kanila or tiwala na sa kanila kahit saan mang kumpanya man sila mag-join, kaya madali na lang sila nakapag buo ng team at downline organization. Kaya mabilis silang kumita ng malaki. 

or

They forgot to tell you that galing na pala sila sa isang kumpanya na nagsara or nagkaproblema at sinalpak nila yung kanilang existing team in this new company, which is the reason of the fast growth of their organization, as well as their pay-out checks. 

or

Ginamitan nila ng SYSTEM  (one owner more than 7 accounts), kaya anglalaki ng cheke nila linggo-linggo.

or worse

Mga fake / pagawa lang pala ung mga chekeng pinapakita nila. Yung kotse, hiram lang pala sa erpats or tito nila. Pero pag binuksan mo mga online account nila mga wala naman laman o kakarampot ang laman.

As you can see this kind of strategy is very common to hype prospects to join the opportunity. For me these practices are very unethical because what the prospects know is just the half of the story.

Even if your prospect doesn't know the whole story, they will join because of false hopes, promises and false expectations. 

 at ayan yung sumisira sa networking industry 

Bakit?

Kasi aakalain nila na ang Networking ay "walk in the park" meaning madali lang gawin, that everyone can do it very easy and earn big money in a short period of time. They don't know that Network Marketing requires a lot of work and dedication to become successful. Akala nila ang kailangan lang nila na mapa-join is dalawang tao lang which a big mistake! This is the biggest reason the retension rate in Networking is very low. The prospect joins because of the lies and after they've join, they will realize the truth that Networking is tough and what their uplines said was not true. 

Eto yung tinatawag sa industry na nabaliw lang or na hype lang. Maaaring mabilis kang makakapag pa-join sa pangbabaliw mong puro kasinungalingan, kaya lang yung mga downline mo ay mabilis din namang mag-quit at makaka dagdag sa mag nenegative ng industriang ito.

Eto pang malupet: Kapag umattend ka ng mga trainings (hindi ko nilalahat, Im just pertaining to the unethical ones) you will be shocked kung anong tinuturo nila sa mga members nila.They will tell them to do things like invest their remaining savings, borrow money, even sell their belongings "the B.U.S.H. system" just to raise the capital needed. Ang focus nila is magpa-payin ng magpa-payin, chumeke ng chumeke... instead of helping them in making the right decision.

Kawawa naman yung mga prospects. Kaya hindi rin natin sila masisisi kung mag-negative sila sa negosyong ito. Kasi nga sumali sila dahil sa maling akala na Networking is a get-rich quick business na ilang linggo lang kahit pa relax relax ka ayan na ang 20,000 - 30,000 (yun kasi sinabi sa kanila nung talk e) which is not. 

"Kalokohan yang Networking na yan! Sabe sakin ng nagpasali sakin, madali lang daw. Dalawang tao lang daw ang pasasalihin (kanan kaliwa), pag naka-dalawa na raw ako kikita nako na malaki! Di naman pala totoo."

"Hindi totoo yang Networking na yan! Puro namamawer lang mga tao jan! Naglabas ako ng pera kasi binigyan ako ng assurance na within one month lang daw, kikita na ako ng malaki. Lalagyan daw ako ng tao(spillover), pero until now, wala naman silang binigay na tao sakin."

"Mga mambubudol yang mga networker! Tinuturuan pa nilang magsangla, mangutang, magbenta ang mga tao, mapasali lang nila!" 

kalungkot pakinggan. . .

Whatever field your are in please . Instead of using lies to hype just tell the truth tell them how you really earn and let them decide.

Ipakita natin sa kanila na tutulungan natin silang kumita, hindi yung kung anu ano lang ang sasabihin para mapasali. Huwag magbigay ng false hopes o mga pangakong hindi kayang ibigay.

Maraming matitinong networkers ang nadadamay 
dahil sa mga unethical practices ng ibang mga networkers na ang focus lang ay kumita ng kumita.

Let's protect the industry. 

Let's rebuild its credibility.
