    Thank you Cherly. It's funny because sales is often perceived as a "bad word" while marketing isn't. The truth is, any businessperson or entrepreneur must learn both. I appreciate your feedback. cheers!

    Cindy, This is a great article. People often think sales and marketing are interchangeable - you give concise information about the differences. The video also adds value as well. I really enjoyed reading this! Thanks

    Many thanks for all your kind feedback. This was one of the first lenses I wrote, and I appreciate that it resonated with marketers from the networking marketing industry and other arenas.

    Attraction marketing is a great way to build a business. It is so easy to talk to someone that wants to hear about your product or opportunity. They come to you. Really refreshing

    Cindy, good overview. I like the analogy with MLM that you are sharing like you would when you see a good movie and "share" it with someone else. However, with MLM you are actually asking your friends to "buy" the movie. Knowing on the front end if they are even interested in the movie - attraction marketing - makes much more sense.

    Great Lens! I liked when you said, "Be honest, upfront and straightforward. Not only will this earn trust, but it will allow you to differentiate yourself." I believe this whole heartily when it comes to gaining ones trust.

    Cindy, great job at explaining the difference between sales and marketing. Prior to reading Ann Sieg I believed the 'sharing' lie. Why? Because I wanted to. My perception of selling was the used car salesman and I most certainly didn't want to be that! I believed in the concept of network marketing but did not want to 'sell'. What a relief to venture online and discover the world of attraction marketing.
