Guest Book entries are restricted to 700 characters, so I couldn't explain this in your Guest Book. John Stephen Veitch
Welcome to Ryze. You are not a robot, that's good. You can be very successful here.
But lots of people make no progress for simple and silly reasons.
The next question is; "Are you coachable?" If so there's lots to learn about Ryze. Most of it also applies to other online social networks.
Newbies are uncertain about what to do when they first enter Ryze, and even when they are told, they hesitate. Ryze has already told you what to do, but 99% of new members don't do it. Why? A bit scared maybe. "What am I getting into?" Don't worry, Ryze is a safe place.
If you really want to learn "How to Fail on Ryze", that story is here.
Listen up for a moment of two. Put aside the ideas that brought you here.
Ryze will allow you to see what hundreds of other people do in their lives and in their businesses. You will be able to read the ideas and opinions of other people. In the process you'll become better informed.
You meet these people in Ryze Networks. Having joined, it's important that you don't remain passive. This isn't television. Ryze works if you do. You can correspond privately with people, or leave public messages in their guest books.
You'll slowly develop the confidence to talk about who you are, and to explain that on your Ryze page.
If you are wise, you'll get in the habit of visiting other people's Ryze pages and leaving messages.
You'll also begin to write to networks expressing your own opinion. This will allow other people to get to know more about who you are, and what your skills might be.
Your knowledge about many things will develop, and that will give you amazing confidence in you own decision making. That confidence will spread to every aspect of your life.
You'll become a leader. (You may already be a leader of course.) So you'll discover new ways to be the leader you are.
Other people will recognise strengths in you that you might not be aware of. That's a priceless gift they can give you.
When you understand how much Ryze has given you, like me you'll become very loyal to Ryze.
Everyone's got stuff or skills for sale.
Every Ryze home page could be an advertisement. But most are not. Why is that?
Simple: none of us come to Ryze primarily as buyers. We all come as sellers. That's a given. But none of us want to read other people's advertisements. We are trying very hard to avoid them.
So if what you choose to do here is advertise, people will seldom if ever read your page.
You won't achieve your business objective that way.
You need to develop the skill to talk about yourself.
You need to join MANY Ryze networks.
You need to read a lot. Discover what people are thinking and saying.
Discover who the other people on Ryze are. Visit their Ryze pages. Write to them.
There's a natural order here: Find new people, get to know who they are. Try to help other people achieve their objectives. They will also be trying to help you. That's how we all succeed.
You will buy from people you know and trust. Other people do that too. Are you known? Are you trusted? Not yet maybe, but you can be, and you will be if you understand what I'm saying.
Now can you prove that you are coachable, Here is a "Free Pass" to using Ryze as a non-paying member.
