This video was posted in 2008. With the way the information age is exploding where are we now? Have these numbers tripled - quadruppled or more?

Pretty amazing really. But my focus in this blog is is ask the question “if things have changed that much with technology where is the best place to market to MLM’ers on the net?”

With all the free information that is now available as interested parties try to stake their claim on the internet and make their mark what is now actually working?

How as one marketing in the MLM niche do you get yourself infront of the hungry crowd? And find the fresh MLM leads?

WHERE ARE THEY? And where are they hooked in?

• Article marketing?
• Video marketing?
• Blogging?
• Twitter?
• Facebook?
• MySpace?
• LinkIn?
• Friendster?
• Squidoo?
• Hubpages?

Wow certainly food for thought don’t you think? !!

I know over the years of being on the net I’ve tried all of these. I tested the water so to speak. They are all still out there - most just as I left them, in particial stages of completion. Good or bad that’s once out there on the net they stay.

Did those strategies work? Are they still working for me?

Those are great questions which I can sum up easily. If I had continued to add to them over time [and completed them - sad to say] I believe they would have become more successful strategies to bring me fresh MLM leads.

Over time I came to realise with my dabbling that good quality content was king and those that were having success had two things in common.

1. They excelled in the medium they were using and became expert users
2. They only produced quality unique content - no PLR stuff

My Turning Point

Sadly what happened for me in the early years was that I became overwhelmed with it all and I jumped to the next great attraction marketing thing that came along. Which is a trap you can fall into if you are not weary.

I moved from each marketing strategy because I became bored with what I was doing. Truth be know I couldn’t settle on just a couple of strategies which was really all that the time I had available permitted.

The best thing I ever did was stop trying to do it all myself. That was when I started to look into the various so called “generic marketing” or “self-branding systems” available for MLM’ers. I joined many. A lot of them were crap. You can read my funded proposal marketing system review here.

I finally settled on MLM Lead System Pro or MLSP for short as they had the most comprehensive training for all of the different marketing strategies. Some of which I’ve listed above. What I learned is they are can all be excellent lead sources if you do them consistantly.

Why was joining MLSP a great thing for me?

Well it was all there, so I could just choose the one or two marketing methods that I really enjoyed doing - all for the same low price point. The ones that I settled on were the ones I didn’t get bored with and could consistantly do the daily action necessary of getting good quality information out there on the net.

Conclusion

It’s a sad fact the majority of people don’t realise we are in the information age now and what is possible with the technology we have. It is an exciting time to be alive within the network marketing industry. To learn more on how to attract endless leads to you using the Internet consider MLSP.

You just never know who they might know who may want or need your products or services.

“Who do you know…” can be a very powerful way to open the conversation when you are talking to others about what you do or what you sell. Why? People just love to help others. So be sure to ask. Leave business cards with those people, so they can hand them out to others who may be interested in contacting you.

When someone either in your professional circle or your personal circle is looking for a particular service, you’ll be able to refer them to someone you know and trust. All of the professionals on your list are able to refer you to those they know as well. It’s a win/win situation.

Your name is on their list, their name is on your list and voila you get what you want fresh MLM leads.

These are just a couple of great ideas to help you getting fresh MLM leads and start growing your MLM business (if you want more business that is!). Taking some small action every day is better than doing nothing at all. Make and follow a simple action plan consistently each day and your mlm business will grow each day. Who knows?

A lot of people think that network marketing is a self-generating business. If the product being marketed is perfect there is no need for a network marketing recruiting system. Downlines would just grow on their own.

If you think the above is true then you have been completely misguided and misinformed. Having a network marketing recruiting system is a key component for any network marketing organization’s success and without it downlines simply don’t grow.

Perhaps the reason this lack of recruiting occurs is because most people who join a network marketing business do not know how to recruit new members because there is no clear system in place. Hopefully the following tips will help you to recognise a winning network marketing recruiting system when you find one.

A Winning Network Marketing System

A winning network marketing recruiting system isn’t one where the person at the top is a recruiting machine signing up the multitudes.

A winning network marketing recruiting system is one where duplication exists. Sustainable duplication exists when there is an expansion of people in number through the whole downline. Without everyone achieving success the network would not expand, but instead become paralyzed.

A winning network marketing recruiting system doesn’t just inform people how to recruit or influence others into joining and throw them out into the market place to sink or swim. There should be no secrets within the organization for the downline to duplicate. When building a downline, using a network marketing recruiting system success and knowledge which is built into the system trickle downwards to all levels, thus preparing them for their future success provided they don’t give up.

In other words for the top to succeed, the bottom will need to succeed as well. Without this process occuring the network marketing business model will not grow and would really just be someone at the top selling stuff.

The network marketing recruiting system allows the topline sponsor to share and teach their downline the same philosophies and techniques that made them successful. This is why a network marketing recruiting system is sometime called a replicated system.

This works much like a franchise system where the franchisor is able to transfer their success formula to the franchisee. One of the very powerful aspects of a network marketing recruiting system is that the downline ultimately benefit from the experiences of the upline founder, as they have travelled the road the downline is now travelling.

The duplication that is a key reason for setting up a network marketing recruiting system is only achievable when upline leaders knowledge can be passed on to the downline, so they get it, without alienating them.

You take the time to make a contact with someone to share your product and/or opportunity with them. Why is it important to follow them up?

All I need to know if I don’t follow up with my prospect it’s a total waste of my time and their time. If you need more facts as to why you should then the figures below from the US National Sales Executive Association, will surely galvinise your actions

US National Sales Executive Association Statistics

2% of sales are made on the 1st contact (44% give up after the 1st contact)
3% of sales are made on the 2nd contact (22% more give up after 2 contacts – 66% so far)
5% of sales are made on the 3rd contact (16% more give up after 3 contacts)
10% of sales are made on the 4th contact (10% more give up after 4 contacts – 92% so far)
80% of sales are made on the 5th-12th contact ONLY 8% make it to contact #5

CONTACT #5  IS WHERE 80% OR MORE OF SALES AND
BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS ARE MADE!!!

Incredibly 92% have given up at 4 contacts or less !!

Yes, you read that correctly. 4 out of 5 sales are made after the prospect has been contacted at least 5 times.

If you consider network marketing to be tricky and you are scared of being scammed then the 10 easy tips outlined below titled Network Marketing For Dummies is a must read.

NETWORK MARKETING FOR DUMMIES

1. Remain positive and think positive thoughts. Staying positive and feeling good about what you are doing will impact your results. If you feel down you will probably experience negative thoughts and your results will be not so good.

2. Remain focused on the benefits for you and beware of the dream stealers. Your close friends and family will be the culprits here as they won’t want you to change. For you to reap the big rewards that are possible in network marketing you will have to change.

3. Prospecting and inviting are the life blood of your network marketing business. The internet is a simple way to reach out to a lot of people. Network marketing is a business of ratio’s. The more people you connect with the better chance you have for success. Because of the vast numbers you will deal with it is imperitive that you have a system to sift and sort. Without one you will go nuts.

4. Select and target your market. It is alot easier to promote what you’re offering to a straving crowd looking for what you have than one that you need to educate that they have a need for what you have before they even will maybe have a look.

5. Become knowledgable on where to find the tools so you can direct your prospects to these to answer any questions they may have. If you try to answer everything and show them how much you know they’ll start thinking I couldn’t do that. And probably won’t.

6. Become a product of your product. Your own personal testimonial will become one of your most used tools. Your powerful personal testimonial will only surface after having your own first-hand experience. If it has worked for you, chances are, it will work for them also.

7. Give Testimonials from those involved in your network marketing business. Both from the business and product stand-point. Even better set up a 3 way conference with the testimonials so your prospect can hear and ask questions directly.

8. Present yourself as a leader. That’s what your prospects are looking for. Just to be clear when your prospect is looking at your offer they will have two questions they’ll be asking themselves that you better be able to answer. 1. Can I do this? 2. Can this person help me?

9. Be coachable and open to change. All great leaders are coachable and willing to change. You cannot become a great leader if you are not willing to grow and change. Being open to coaching is what give you a straight line access to growth and change and becoming a great leader.

10. Become a great listener. God gave you 2 eyes, 2 ears and 1 mouth. Use them in that proportion. People with never care about you until you can show them how much you care about them. In all aspects of your business people don’t hear what you are saying ….. They hear who you are being.

Network marketing is a concept that has the capacity for you to earn a substaintial residual income. If it is done right the first time you will continue to receive that residual income for the rest of your downlines life and a legacy you can leave to your family when you move on.
