Hi, My name is Rhonda Smith and I'm CEO of RKS Enterprise.. I just wanted to take a moment and introduce myself..I hope after my introduction you will know a little bit about me and understand how my journey brought me to Internet Marketing..
I've been married for 20 years, I have three beautiful children who make life worth living. I have a 19 year old college basketball player who is a stand out - Shardai and a set of 14 year old fraternal twins Robert who is a baseball standout and Rianna who is a creative genius..
I was an insurance agent for most of my adult life and I can tell you I really enjoyed the opportunity to serve people that were in my community..I started with the organization right after I got married.. I just walked into the office and asked for a job.. I started as a secretary and worked my way up in the company.. After five years I was asked to move to Portland Oregon and start my own insurance agency.. If you can imagine moving to a city where you knew not a single sole and had no experience in selling insurance - it was quite a task.
I was up for the challenge.. Within my first year I had broken all sales records and won all sorts of trips and prizes.. I was even asked to become a mentor for new agents that were just starting out.. I even starred in company videos and made radio commercials for the organization..My specialty was in building relationships which attributed to my great success.
You see I never was a salesperson.. I never could cold call and I did very little advertising.. I built my business on referrals.. I met with people..I identified their needs and I gave them a solution.
So when I decided to look into network marketing I thought it would be a great fit..Boy was I wrong.. Dragging folks to meetings, getting on conference calls, three waying prospects and making a list were not my strong points.. I failed miserably at my first attempts to network marketing.. Like many others I was a part of the NFL (No Friends Left)..
But Then:
I finally met up with some folks who I could identify with.. They showed me a better way of promoting online.. A Way that I was accustomed to..You see most folks try to sell a product and they fail to understand that the Product is YOU.
All those years in the insurance industry taught me that I sold the same products as any other insurance company.. But people bought insurance from me because I was different, I was a standout.. They knew if they came to me they would get the best service, an honest evaluation and if I couldn't help them I'd send them on their way as a friend. That was the difference, and it's the same in Internet Marketing.. YOU are the product so make YOU the difference.
