A Healthy Approach to mlm Marketing

I can only assume that you are here because you are either interested in growing your existing MLM business or you are interested in starting one. It doesn't matter. Who wouldn't be interested in earning an extra check every month? A profitable MLM business is a great way to earn extra income.

Think of all the things that you could buy, all the ways that you could help the people around you. Would you like to take a trip? Would you like to pay off all of your bills? Money from your MLM could do that for you. There's only one problem though, over 95% of people who begin with an MLM program FAIL.

There are many reasons why, but I believe the number one reason is because people come in with the wrong expectations. When I began to get involved with MLM's it was a customer in my off line business that said to me "want to make a lot of money working just one half to maybe an hour a day"? At the time it sounded like a great idea to make extra money and do the things that I had only dreamed of until that point. Somewhere along the line he also mentioned that he was making about $1000 a month and ONLY working up to an hour a day. It sounded to good to be true. And you know what, IT WAS! Now I'm not here to say anything bad about this gentleman, he really believed that this was possible.

The problem is lots of people believe or at least they are told this is possible. The main reason that they are told this is as a hook by the ones promoting this idea so that they can build their own down lines. They do so with the faint hope that one of the people that they actually recruit might somehow catch lightening in a bottle and make them some money. The actual fact is: if something sounds to good to be true it probably is. Unless you were born wealthy there are no free rides in this world.

An MLM business is like any business, you get back what you put in. Put in very little, like the hour a day that my friend had told me was all that I had to do and the odds are that you will not get back very much. Invest more time and effort in your business and you will reap greater rewards. Most people come into MLM's expecting just as I was told, to work very little and make a lot of money - it just doesn't work that way. And people wonder why the name Multi Level Marketing has a bad reputation and the drop out rate is over 95 percent. I'm not saying that anything is difficult and cannot be learned - you just have to take action and do it! I can't blame people for wanting to live a better life and wanting to make more money, it just has to be done the right way.

As I mentioned creating an MLM business takes hard work. In fact, anything worth doing takes hard work. To get your business off of the ground there are many roads that you can take. You will probably have to try out several before settling on the ones that work for you. Another thing to keep in mind is don't just use one strategy. When you use one, if it stops working you're in trouble, but if you use several, you will be better off if one does stop working.

I wish there was a silver bullet where we all could make lots of money, not have to work very much and spend our time doing what we want. Unfortunately there is no silver bullet and we are all going to have to work to get what we want.

Next, I will take you through several of the most common strategies to obtain and then convert your prospects into sales or sign ups. But, before I take you through how to make money there is one more thing that you need to know and that is that there are two ways to make money within a MLM organization.

The first is simply that you can sell your companies products. The second is you can recruit people to sell for you. It's slightly more common for people to sell the products then recruit, but which method you choose is strictly up to you. Most distributors do some of both, what percentage is entirely up to you.

I'm going to begin by recruiting others to sign up below you and then go out and sell the product for you. Although this may be slightly more difficult in the early stages, it sets your business up to become easier as you advance.

The next thing that you need to know is that most recruiting is done off line. It takes more explanation and interaction therefore making off line somewhat easier. To get prospects the most common strategies are:

1.Cold Calling - is self explanatory and although I have written a lot on making the call, the object is to just pick up the phone and call people on your list and explain the benefits of being a distributor for your company.

2.Using Fliers - this is also self explanatory and just means to make an attractive flier, hang it everywhere possible and have people call you.

3.Word of Mouth - just talk to everyone that you come into contact with at the appropriate moment.

Obviously nothing here is anything that you aren't probably already familiar with. Remember I said that nothing here was going to be difficult - IT"S JUST A MATTER OF DOING IT!

When it comes to selling the product the most common strategies are:

4.Social Networking - the interaction with people on the internet

5.Pay Per Click -

6.Joint Venturing -

Now there are two more things that you need to know. The first is you may have noticed that I have listed five strategies and they are numbered one to five. The reason for this is that I suggest that you do a little of both - recruiting as well as selling your product. The second thing is that don't worry if something doesn't work for you - there other strategies and although somewhat more advanced, you can learn them as your business grow
