On the previous page you saw a link at the top of the "Me Page" that was a graphic
of your friends. This brings you to this "Friends" page pictured above.
When someone does business with you they can post a note to your address book
and request that you add them as your friend. When they do this they post
a note about doing business with you.
If you decide you like what they have to say about you, you can click to add
them to your friends list and they will then show on this "Friends" page.
At anytime you can delete them from your "Friends" page also.
When your prospective buyers look at your "Friends" page they can see
the usernames of all your friends, their comments about you, and the
date and time they became your friend.
They can also click on the friend's user name and read about them also.
When you become a part of a network of friends that are respected business
people on the classifieds, you gain a lot in credibility from your potential
customers and prospects.
Anyone can click to see the "Me Page" of your friends, and then even the
"Me Page" of their friends. This has a nice side benefit of adding more
traffic to the "Me Pages" of your friends, so you all benefit.
On the next page we are going to look at the Icon at the top for the
"Private Internal Email" system.

Sales is a numbers game! Pick Your Numbers!
Please note that some of our portal directors with experience in sales get 25% of
the business owners they give a presentation to purchase a premium listing. If you
are new to sales the industry standard is normally 10%. This in no way guarantees
you will have these percentages, but some of our directors report 25% closing ratio
once a business owner has been given a full presentation.
