Referrals and Turning it into your online business

Going after all of your points on your own is probably going to be the wrong move.  You want to help pump up your points with the help of others.  

Turning on your computer and finding that other people have had some success in getting some points and you picking up some too is the best feeling in the world.

Think about it like you are the business person that has established a business and you are getting the benefit of expanding your salesforce.

If you have seen the movie called nightcrawler, you will notice how the main character jumped into business and immediately got himself an employee.  It helped him get more things done.  

Getting referrals is a great way to help get what you want online.  They are getting something too.  Just think about all the people that are searching online and how you could get a part of that.

Keep your eyes on the ball and look for the many different ways that you could add some extra referrals.  You might start using your social media or creating some simple videos.  The choice is yours.

Getting going in the online referral business might be like dipping your toes into the water before jumping into the deep end.  Are you learning something about online marketing when you are trying to pick up referrals?  Don't companies pay for that type of knowledge and experience?  You might be building up great online skills and not even knowing it.  

Going after free online stuff might turn into a real business option for a person.  Take some time to write down all the things that are you doing to get referrals.  You might be building websites, posting online social media updates, and even writing blog posts or creating ebooks.  These are skills that could be turned into a real business.

What is the upside of making this type of a turn?  You are not going to have to wait like with the free online rewards programs.   Your skills are getting developed, but you have to find a better way to use them.

Simple stuff like learning how to create youtube videos might be a service that you could provide to small business owners.  Not every small business owner is up to speed on all the technology updates.  Just think about all the people that still have old websites that have not been updated.  You might have setup a simple blog for promoting referrals, and you know how to create a good looking site fast.  Do you think some of those business owners with horrible ugly websites might be interested in upgrading?  What if you made them a super low offer to help them out?  

Getting stuff online for free might be your first venture into the online world of business.  You might just need to step back from the newbie viewpoint and think about what you are doing and how you could turn it into something else.
