“Do I need to know and recruit a lot of people to be successful in MLM?” is a commonly asked question.

The typical reply from most upline sponsors goes something like the following…

“No, you can build up a substantial residual income and become very successful in Multi Level Marketing by sponsoring just one person every month or two.

They will go on to tell you that the people you sponsor do not have to be from your “warm market,” (that is, your friends, relatives, and people you already know).  They say, just think of all the people you run into every day in your normal activities!

They instruct you to sit down with pen and paper and write down a list of everyone you know, have known, attended school with, done business with, worked with, go to church with, etc. and they explain that you will be astounded by how many people you are able to list.

Surely not all these people will join your Multi Level Marketing program, however, you can still be very successful if only one in a hundred elects to join.  Statistics show that if one out of every hundred people you contact about joining your business, does so, it will be enough to make your car payment, another one will make your house payment, and one more will retire you!

Three out of every one hundred people you contact is certainly achievable but you have to actually go out and contact the one hundred people.  Some of them will not be interested themselves, but they mightknow someone who might be and they refer that person to you.  This referral process expands your list.

However, there is one flaw in this whole process and that is that you have to be willing to be rejected by 97 people.  That is a lot of rejection and most people will not last that long.  And initially these are people you at least know, so the rejection is even more difficult to accept.

How many masochist do you know who are willing to knowingly go out and face one hundred people and get turned down by ninety seven of them and just keep on going trying to sell or recruit to an unwilling market?

If you are fortunate enough to sponsor someone who is already a seccessful multi level marketer with correct skills, who brings along his established downline with him and becomes a “heavy hitter” in your company, then technically the answer given above is correct.  If your company’s compensation plan is supportive, then that single recruit may be able to carry you along.

However, the odds of you recruiting a “heavy hitter” who goes out and creates a large downline under you when you only sponsor “one person every month or two,” is extremely unlikely.

So what should you do if you don’t want to face massive rejection and you aren’t going to be lucky enough to recruit a “heavy hitter” early on in your MLM career?

Instead of seeking out all your friends and family members and quickly becoming a member of the NFL (No Friends Left) club, or bugging everyone within 30 feet of you as advocated by some sponsors, you need to narrow down your target market.  Everyone is not your target market.  Your target market is made up of people who are already seeking to start a home business, to earn extra money on a part-time basis, are looking for a Multi Level Marketing program to join or are already a member of some other Multi Level Marketing business.  You can even further narrow down your niche to only the latter group if you desire.  Then encourage them to come to you and get them to join your company by employing a soft sell technique instead of the hard sell methods pushed by many MLM sponsors.

“And just how are you supposed to do that?”, you might ask.

Well first you need to get their attention and interest by offering them something such as a free report or preferably a funded proposal that is relevant to your market and getting them on your mailing or contact list.  Then, once they are subscribed to your list, you develop a relationship with them by providing them frequent free useful information relative to your product, company, the MLM industry, salesmanship, or marketing, etc.  In their eyes you will quickly become an authority figure.

If you have correctly identified your market, prospects will soon be calling you for guidance and asking how they can become a member of your team.

If you’re like some of my students at my website, you’ve decided to create an online presence for your Internet Marketing business.  That’s great! One of the things you may be wondering is: Should I subscribe to an autoresponder follow-up system?

In a word absolutely! You most assuredly do. In online marketing circles, research studies show that people need up to seven exposures to your information before they will purchase from you. How can you guarantee that a visitor will come to your site those seven times? Simple.  You collect their information and then you follow up with them with emails through your opt-in system. This is the way that they get to know and trust you and, if you do your job correctly, they may make a purchase at some point.  I’ll assist you at my website.

When looking for your online marketing business newsletter follow-up system, it benefits you to for you to go with a paid autoresponder services. Although there are some good free autoresponder services that exist, but the support service decreases significantly when you use them. Additionally, and this is the main thing, ads are usually inserted into each e-mail that goes out…ads for someone else’s products, not yours. Common sense says that it’s in your best interest for your message to be the only one that your respondent reads.
Search for the term autoresponder and then take a look at the available services. If some of your friends or business partners use this type of service, get a recommendation from them what they recommend. Just like with any service, you need to thoroughly research ahead of time saving headaches and lost business opportunities later.  In addition to quality customer service, your internet marketing business mail follow-up system needs to include as many of the following features as you can find. Look for the ability to:

* Personalize messages with your list member’s first name and other information.

* Send as many email messages as you’d like.

* Load a series of messages to be sent out at various times.

* Create and send messages in an html format.

* Easily create and add opt-in forms to your web site.

* Broadcast messages to your list.

Just like other elements of business, building a list to your business success. With a good internet marketing autoresponder follow-up system in place, your chance for success can improve substantially.

There are a couple of autoresponders that I can recomment.  To see my personal favorites, please visit my website.

home based business

I know that due to the appearance of the Internet, the world was changing little by little, the information became easier accessible, and enclosed there were born persons that became millionaires thanks to the Internet, the same as many people that will obtain an excellent way of life thanks to the same one. Now we are going to speak how to take advantage Of Internet and to achieve the way of life that really we wish.

In Internet there are many real business opportunities, as well as the frauds abound, it is because of it that every entrepreneur dedicated to earn money for Internet must learn in some moment or other one to separate a “scam” what it is not. Of such a way they will not waste a good opportunity when one presents them, and much less was giving the money to those odious swindlers.

It is not very difficult to identify these you defraud, they are in the habit of offering you all kinds of things impossible to realize, for example … if this class of companies wants to defraud you they will offer you to make you rich in one week, for a survey answers fifty dollars, or for a simple e-mail reads hundred dollars. All these are swindles.

Consulting on Internet you can see them every day and I am not sure if at some time you have fallen down in her defrauds, what I am sure that you approached with many precaution. An article like this one had helped you very much.

Now that know the easy thing that is to identify these you defraud let’s speak how make money is generated indeed, to generate money indeed in Internet it is not necessary to invest big quantities of money or simply to invest money, but it is true that if you want to generate big quantities the certain thing is that in some you ended up by needing to invest money.

The trick to do the money in Internet is in finding out to know the way for which you must realize your business plan. I know many different formulae to do money on Internet, but in this occasion especially only I will speak to them about one and it’s “Multilevel Marketing”.

Multilevel marketing treats itself about a company that he pays for realizing an action that they request, but also they pay you he is obtained by “distributors” who would come to be your “referrers”, and finally also they pay a fraction to you of what referrers these generate.

The trick with this class of systems is not works only you, if not to obtain the major quantity of partners possible, you must have and create a “online presentation” where they were promoting the system multilevel and they will offer his affiliate link. When they have ready the presentation only it has to distribute it where it could, forums, books of visits, or where want.

The forms that I have presented are very effective, but no doubt the most effective of all is to create an own website, try to do it some day.

MLM, or Multi Level Marketing, when combined with the Internet, creates a powerful formula for building a successful home business and achieving financial freedom.

This business model is used by hundreds of companies to move their goods and services to the end consumer.  In this article, my goal is to provide you with information on what this industry IS and what it is NOT.

I want to give you everything you need to make an informed, educated decision about whether or not this business concept is right for you.

Simply put, MLM (as we’ll call it here) is simply a business model for moving products and services from the factory to the marketplace and using a multi level commission payout plan (that’s where the term “multi level” comes in)!  Another term commonly associated with MLM is Network Marketing due to the nature of the program members working together as a team.

Some people believe that Multi Level Marketing companies are nothing more than scams or illegal pyramid schemes.  However, for true MLM companies, nothing could be further from the truth.  These people simply do not understand how Multi Level Marketing companies work.

The first thing that you need to know is that MLM is not illegal and it is not a pyramid scheme.  While the organizational structure resembles a pyramid in shape, this is true of almost all businesses.  There are far more workers in the lower ranks of any business then at the top, if not, the business would collapse.  Not everyone in the company can be CEO or Vice President.  In fact, Multi Level Marketing companies are one hundred percent legal and many multi-million dollar companies use this business model to market their products.

Many Multi Level Marketing companies have been around for decades.  Some of the better known MLM companies are Shaklee, Tupperware, Mary Kay Cosmetics, Amway, A.L. Williams (Insurance), Princess House (a subsidiary of Colgate Palmolive), Melaleuca, MCI, U.S. Sprint, and NSA.

There are hundreds more MLM companies and just like other companies, some are good and some are not so good.  But MLM is certainly here to stay and it is an explosive growth field!  In fact, increasingly you will find more and more Fortune 500 companies employing the Network Marketing business model for some portion of their marketing portfolio!

So what’s the big attraction to MLM companies and programs?  Well, it represents a wonderful opportunity for the “little guy” to start his own business on a part time basis and make a whole lot of  money provided he or she is willing to put in some work!  This is not a get rich quick scheme and work is involved, no matter what some MLM recruiters would like you to believe.

John Paul Getty is often quoted as having said that he would always prefer earning 1% of a hundred peoples efforts than 100% of his own efforts.  And that is precisely what Multi Level Marketing is all about.  The Multi Level Marketing sales force members are not actually employees of the company, but instead they are independent distributors who are compensated for their efforts by commission based on the amount of product moved by not only themselves, but also by those whom they recruit as distributors.

What makes the business “multi level” is that each independent distributor can recruit other independent distributors to work under them and earn a wholesale commission on the amount products their recruited distributors move to consumers.  And this process can go on and on for some designated number of levels.  This chain of distributors is called a downline.

The more people a distributor can recruit for his downline, the larger will be their total commissions.  The number of levels that a distributor will earn override commissions on will depend upon the company’s compensation plan but five to seven or more levels is not unusual.  These wholesale override commissions can quickly add up for distributors with a large downline.

A strong incentive is thus created not only for a distributor to recruit more distributors for their downline, but also to train them to move products as well.  Thus a successful distributor will want to duplicate their success by teaching their downline members how to be successful.  By making their downline members successful, they make themselves more successful.

Those who can successfully recruit, train, and retain can create small fortunes and develop a large stable residual income that will support them for years to come.  Although not easy, it can be quite rewarding.

Millions of people are discovering the advantages of being their own boss and working from home with the MLM business model.  A basic computer, telephone, fax machine, a HUGE ambition, and the knowledge of how to proceed to grow your business are all it really takes!

Will you make a fortune network marketing? Some people really do get rich, while others are happy just to pay the bills and have more freedom. Whatever plans or dreams you have for your home business you must develop the skill of applying focus.

Making money working from home is the dream for many people today. Whether you want to spend more time with the kids, make a few bucks while you’re home anyway, hate your boss, or simply stop wasting time in the daily commute, a network marketing internet business can be the ideal work at home solution.

However, it is not as easy as some people want you to believe. Pick up a copy of Ann Sieg’s free report The 7 Lies Of Network Marketing to see what I mean. The quit rate in MLM business is huge. Around 90% of new recruits will not stay. This gives MLM a bad reputation. But did you know that the failure rate for any other type of self employment work from home is just as high?

The problem is not the fact that it is MLM. The problem is that it is tough starting any kind of home business. And the main problem that most people have can be summed up in one word:

Focus.

Distractions, interruptions, lack of motivation, spending too much time on unproductive tasks … working from home with no boss hanging over us, we all suffer from some if not all of these issues. They all lead to bad time management and lack of focus, and that means, less money coming in.

The worst thing we can do is constantly switch from one task to another during the day. Every time we divert our focus to a new task, we spend time getting into the ‘zone’ of the new task. Recent research suggests that it can take up to 20 minutes to get totally into the zone of whatever we are doing. Only then are we really focused on the task and able to work most effectively.

Of course, have frequent breaks. Take 10 minutes to stretch, relax, fetch a glass of water. But do not watch TV or start reading something. bring a pen so you can write down ideas that come up during your break.

Plan your schedule and keep to it, without allowing interruptions or getting distracted. Give all your attention to your number one priority for the day, and do not do any other work until it is completed. Big projects that will take more than one day can be split into manageable daily tasks. But whatever you do, hold on to your focus through all of your work time.

Want to make money in MLM? It is not so easy while the industry hangs onto its myths and outdated ideas. Pick up a FREE copy of Ann Sieg’s 7 Great Lies Of Network Marketing to discover where you could improve your techniques to make a fortune network marketing.

In this Renegade Network Marketer review, get all the info on what is inside Ann Sieg’s groundbreaking ebook The Renegade Network Marketer.

Guess what is the toughest problem facing MLMers during the vital first few months of their business? Yes, it’s money.

Many people are attracted to a network marketing business by examples of fabulous wealth and when they join, they are disappointed to find that making money takes time. 90% of them will drop out within 3 months, usually because they had not been able to cover their start up costs.

A network marketing business requires some financial investment, even though you do not have to hire staff or office space. You usually have to pay a joining fee on top of buying stock, having your stationery printed etc. Often there is a monthly membership or autoship fee too. During the first 3 months, distributors can find themselves hundreds or even thousands of dollars in the red.

It is possible to cover those initial costs right away - but not by following what your upline usually tell you. Ann Sieg in The Renegade Network Marketer gives you a system that can create income from the get-go while you set up the longer term framework of your business. She pulls no punches as she exposes tired old network marketing myths which many uplines are still pushing onto their new recruits today - are you guilty of this yourself?

Sidenote: to find out what these myths are and why they should be expunged from the lips of every MLMer, pick up your copy of Ann’s free report, The 7 Great Lies Of Network Marketing.

When I came across The Renegade Network Marketer I had doubts, even though it was clear that what I had been doing up to then was not working. I thought this might be another case of MLM bashing and I tend to be defensive about that. However, Ann takes a very positive attitude, throwing out the old but replacing it with her own tried and tested methods that have brought her huge success in network marketing after a very shaky start.

The Renegade Network Marketer is concise and fluff free. Ann never beats about the bush and does actually show how it is possible to make money in network marketing without sponsoring anyone into your main business. She saves the best for last, outlining a clear blueprint for success. This is backed up with free membership in the Renegade System where you can put what you have read into practice right away.

Ann shoots from the hip and some of the old style MLMers will not like it. That may be a pity. But if the old style methods are not working for you, you need to read this. You will uncover new systems that you will not find in an opportunity meeting.
