The New Networking Revolution
"We are at the very point in time when a 400-year-old age is dying and another is struggling to be born- a shifting culture, science, society, and institutions enormously greater than the world has ever experienced.
Ahead is the possibility of the regeneration of individuality, liberty, community, and ethics, such as the world has never known, and a harmony with nature, with one another, and with the divine intelligence such as the world has never dreamed" - Dee Hock Former CEO and Founder of Visa It may not be surprising to a lot of you that we are on the verge of a major shift in how we do business and how we relate with one another.
All this has been made possible by the invention and massive growth of the World Wide Web.
Never before has humanity ever been able to connect across the globe with one another in such a way.
Old industrial age ideology is now history and has been replaced by a new era of freedom, self reliance and with over two billion people online, a truly globalised economy.
The massive growth of network marketing and social media is a testament of our inherent need to interact and share thoughts, ideas and information with like minded people like never before.
We can't help ourselves, because conversation is always a natural result when a group of people gather together.
People who never would have considered chatting to people online have joining the ranks of the virtually connected.
I was even surprised the other day to see my friends grandmother on Facebook, I never even knew she could use a computer.
This networking buzz has even affected network marketing companies who today are all touting how they are going into momentum, which means they believe their businesses will treble or even quadruple due to a large extent to the new blood entering this type of business thanks to the internet amongst other economic and demographic factors.
According to Leonard Clements Of Market Wave Inc, he believes that "network marketing is going to explode" and he has done a lot of research to back this up.
Our need to network and connect with people like us has never been stronger.
Online communities and tribes are popping up all over the place designed to help and support each other in their mutual endeavours, these organizations in turn develop a trust and a sense of community amongst their participants who share and recommend products and services with each other and in turn, people that they interact with outside the community.
So why does this work so well? well maybe it's because we have always valued word of mouth and what social media and all these emerging online communities do is to put that word of mouth on steroids.
For any business or budding Entrepreneur to ignore this rising tide is to miss out on the biggest revolution since the invention of the internet itself.
