MLM Secrets - Are you swimming against the flow?

In today’s MLM training, I would like to share with you one of the MLM secrets that you must understand in your network marketing business.

Presented to you by Mentoring For Free

You should follow your personality type doing the business and not change your personality.

Let me explain. I did talk to two people this evening.

Both ladies are ‘blues’: that means they like to have fun, they are open and direct.

One of them is very successful in her business and sponsoring people everyday.
The other is struggling big time and getting depressed!

The successful lady is in a travel business and she is having fun doing the business! No wonder she is able to sponsor people. She will never stop working in her MLM and she will never quit!

The other lady is struggling big time and why?

Because her upline and her network marketing company ‘leaders’ told her to chase her friends, family and cold call her neighbors.

What is she getting? Rejection and Pain!!

If you are following my posts I have discussed with you that #1 lesson you must teach your distributors is: Rejection Free Prospecting!

If your distributors are having fun and they are not stressed out, they will stay with you for hundred years even if they don’t make money!

Forget this piece of the puzzle; your distributors will get plenty of pains and rejection. No wonder they quit. Your distributors will never want to talk to anyone anymore, they are going to hide in the closet; their self esteem is in the mud. Then they will tell you that MLM is just a scam!

Do you understand where this objection is coming from?

Did you remember also in prior post how crucial is the self esteem in this business?

How do you expect to be magnetic with poor self esteem?

What is the purpose of sponsoring people if they keep quitting on you?

Where is the duplication? Are you duplicating the pain!

Feel free to comment and give me your opinion.

MLM Secrets - Have you heard about the internet?

In today mlm training I would like to teach you about a mlm secrets called the Internet!

The best lead generation tool ever created is the Internet. It will allow you to target your market. It opens up the whole world for you 24/7. If you are not using the Internet for your lead generation effort today then it is as if you are still fighting with a sword.

Anyway, one of the major questions I get is: How to drive traffic to my website?

I have plenty of tips in the post archives

I will remind you about the basics: (Look for the details in the post archives)

1) Make sure you send your visitors to a website (lead capture page) where they can receive something free. This way you will have to chance to contact them by phone or follow-up with them automatically through an auto responder.

For example, when you visit my blog here I offer you a free e-book MLM Success in 10 Steps for this reason

2) There are two major ways of getting visitors to your website: Paid and Free.

It is going to cost you either money or time!

You have to judge which one do you have more?

What are the FREE ways of getting visitors to your website or lead capture pages?

-Forums: by visiting forums and getting involved in discussions, you are allowed to have your signature file. If you help other people and provide information then they want to know about you and they will visit your website.

-Visiting blogs and commenting on them: For example, if you comment on my blog you are allowed to have a link to your website and you can get some of my website visitors to check your website. You can visit multiple blogs easily and comment on the posts.

Go to blogsearch.google.com or to any other blog search engine and you will find plenty of blogs about your particular interest.

If you are commenting on my blog, you better have a nice comment

-Article writing: You can write articles about your product or your opportunity and post it in the article directories and send it to ezine publishers.

-Get a blog like this one and start writing your ideas about the products of your network marketing company or your opportunity. You can have one for free if you are short on money; there are plenty of places to make your free blog. Check www.blogger.com and www.wordpress.com

-Traffic exchanges such as traffic swarm and instant buzz: this will allow you to click on other people’s advertisements and you get credits and other people will see your advertisements.
Beware of all the spy wares though. Time wasting

All these methods will cost you time.

What are the paid ways of getting traffic and visitors to your mlm company or better yet to your lead capture page ?

Whenever you want to pay for advertisement, you have to do some math (sorry).

You have to have a budget. For example: you are paying $30 for one type of advertisement and you get 10 leads but no one signs up, then you never want repeat this process again. But if you pay $30 for another type of advertisement and you get 3 highly motivated leads, and one signs up then you made more than $30. This you repeat again and again.

That’s what you call Return on Investment. Repeat what’s makes you money and stop what’s waste your money. (Make sense but most people waste their money on repeating advertisements that do not work!)

That’s called testing in marketing: sometimes you have to waste money till you find the best formula for you. Expect it to happen and if you can not live with this idea then use the free ways till you make some money that you can use for testing.

-Paid per click programs such as Google adwords, overture and other minor ones.
Paid per click advertisements are those advertisements on your right side that you see in search engines under the ’sponsored links’. Paid per click will allow you to bid on ‘keywords’ and the one who bids higher, will gets their ad placed first on the search engines ads. This method will get you immediate traffic but may waste your money! Check Perry Marshall 5 free email lessons before you get into pay per click deals.

- Newsletters advertisements: You can find ezine or newsletters about your topic of interest and you can place an ad. You can use top sponsor ad or a solo ad. Before you pay any ad for any ezine, subscribe to it so you appreciate the quality and the type of people who are reading it. Again you test and evaluate!

-Press releases: You can make a press release about your products or your opportunity. There are free press releases but I found them ineffective personally. When you pay something like $80, you can get significant exposure. One of the major press releases websites is www.prweb.com

What do I use personally right now?

I use a blog and article writing. This is how you arrived here
I have used forums, blog commenting and traffic exchanges but it wasted too much of my time.

I hope these would help you generate your leads.
Get a lead capture page if your mlm company website sucks, most of them do, including my own network marketing company, lol.

MLM Secrets : How to recruit other network marketers?

MLM secrets : How to recruit other network marketers including me?

I wrote this post because I have had people try to recruit me. Some of the ways have been funny.

Is it a good idea to recruit other network marketers?

Of course! Think about it, fellow network marketers will never tell you Network Marketing is a scam! They already have the dream and the desire for time and financial freedom. They have already been sold on the concept of residual income.

Is it ethical to recruit other network marketers?

Yes, it is. You are never sponsoring anyone against his will. You are not stealing them, they decide to join you.

Let me tell you first about the wrong way of recruiting other network marketers:

Yesterday:

One guy submited a question from: Ask me link on this website and told me: “I am a top distributor in one of the biggest wellness companies on the planet. I want to discuss the opportunity with you. Please call or email me at your earliest convenience. ”

Wow! I am impressed with this smart tactic! I am going to jump in into his noni mlm company deal today!

Even if I was looking for a network marketing company to join,

1) This approach is very bold and despicable to me.
2) Why would I join a company with a horrible product! I heard some people saying: they will never put noni juice in their mouth even if it will cure their cancers! I am not drinking this stuff myself, lol. I am far from being a sadomasochist.

Do not do this! It doesn’t work.

The day before yesterday:

I was talking to a guy and he tells me: “I found a good deal, I think you will be interested!”

This guy changes his deals as often as he changes his clothes.

That’s what you call “mlm junkie”: a person who jumps from a deal to another. He joins every deal he hears about and never goes anywhere with any of them. This is the typical loser profile that keeps joining every pre-launch new hot mlm company (Oh, I am getting early this time)

So, what is the appropriate way to recruit other network marketers?

If you have read the MLM Success e-book, you should understand that people join people they know, like and trust!

You become their friends and when timing is right, they will join you or you join them!

This is one of the mlm secrets that ‘the heavy hitters’ never tell you.

Heavy hitters will ask you to chase your friends and family but the reality is: they have been in multiple network marketing companies and they know many leaders in the MLM industry already.

When heavy hitters joined a new company they recruited those leaders because they have known them for long time and the timing was right for them!

Professional network marketers never go into the stupid argument: My company is better than yours. Professionals talk professionally, they learn from each others.

Only network marketers newbies and junkies argue which company is better.

Using this tactic is very effective but it may be slow. Be patient.

MLM and network marketing is a business that grows a little bit at a time. Network marketing is not a magic bullet!

I hope this make sense to you.
