Over the years I have written many articles with the basic understanding that good unique content is king. Article writing is not new as a marketing tactic. It is a tried and true system for getting backlinks and visitor to your website, which is my main interest.

My Frustration

Because it was taking me anywhere between 1 and 3 hours to write a good quality article I started looking at ways I could leverage this time already spent. There were two main products that interested me. The first was an article writer and the other was an article spinner or rewriter.

Over the years I have bought and tested just about everyone I could lay my hands on. Most of them were straight up rubbish. Others were okay if I first wrote a great article, but in the interests of speeding up the process I often found myself taking more time using the software than it would have taken me to write another article from scratch.

The one I have had the most success with and the one that has given me the best consistant results is Unique Article Writer. I can’t tell you anything about the way they work as I signed a confidentiality agreement before I could start using the system. If you want to know more you’ll have to check out their site.

Mass Article Control - The New Kid On The Block

It still takes me one to three hours per article but the results I’m getting with UAW are outstanding for the time spent.

However, this didn’t stop me thinking there has got to be a quicker way. It just so happened about this time I was introduced to a new product Mass Article Control (MAC) a brand new product. MAC was referred to me by someone who I considered a very reliable source. So I naturally checked it out.

The MAC sales page was a little cheesey which did put me off initially.

However I spent the time to go through it as it described the two components - an article submitter and an article rewriter, because of who recommended it. The video on how it could be used was what got me because I saw MAC in action.

So about a week ago I purchased a copy of Mass Article Control without the upgrade article submitter. The article submitter is a semi automated article submission software which submits to top 10 article directory’s. If I’d purchased the upgrade at $47 this would have been increased to 20.

My Initial Impressions Of Mass Article Control

The main purpose of writing an article and submitting it to the article directory’s is to motivate the reader of your article to click the link in your resource box and go through to hopefully buy the product you are recommending.

To do this effectively your article needs to be readable and informative.

From the sales video this is how I thought I’d be using MAC. I would select individual sentences (as many or as few as I wanted) from my original article, and then have MAC rewrite several versions of those sentences. Then I would run the spinner over them which would make them pretty much original.

While watching the demo video it was the speed of the spinner that really got my attention, where one original article created 1000 articles in seconds. That impressed me most and got me excited enough to buy my copy of Mass Article Control.

I thought MAC would be a powerful time saver to submit unique articles to various article directories or use them on my blog or autoresponder series or maybe even to create a free report.

With the bonus article submitter that looked like it made short work of submitting articles to the article directories, (a task which I dislike intensely as it is a slow and repetitive) I thought I was onto a winner.

Mass Article Control Was Great In Theory

What actually happened was I got a bunch of articles from MAC that were for the most part gibberish and didn’t make great reading.

When it comes to getting backlinks the quality of the content may not matter so much… though personally I don’t like publishing anything that is sub-standard with my name on it.

So, if you were hoping to use MAC to mass generate readable articles with the click of one button, I am sorry to disappoint you. It just doesn’t do it.

I never used the article submitter that came with MAC because soon after I requested a refund. I had to apply for my refund via Clickbank as the only way I had to contact MAC for support was via a gmail account which was supplied on the Clickbank receipt. I sent numerous emails without reply. In short the MAC support was non existant.

UP DATE

One of my readers wrote to me about Magic Article Writer. For $3 more than what I paid for MAC this one does exactly what I want it to do and works fantastically with Unique Article Writer. I am very happy with my purchase of Magic Article Writer and its fully automated article submitter, which submits to over 700 directories automatically. This is quite a step up from the 10 semi-automated submission which was on offer with MAC.

Jerry McGuire is one of my favorite films. It has some great one liners that have stood the test of time. One of those was “Show Me The Money”.

I believe this is why Network Marketing has such a high drop out rate, because most people who start don’t have a true understanding of where the money is and how quickly they are going to get into profit.

HOW QUICKLY DO YOU PROFIT FROM YOUR BUSINESS

I believe it is prudent to understand and fully scrutinize the compensation plan of the company you are going to be working with because you need to know how you are going to get paid. That doesn’t mean you need to go into analysis paralysis.

In the first instance you need to know what your break even point is or when you have covered the cost of your required order.

To do this easily, let me introduce you to a concept I call the 20 club which you will be able to apply to any network marketing compensation plan. This simple formula will give you a way of comparing network marketing companies comp plans and evaluating you how quickly you and your team can get into profit.

THE 20 CLUB

The 20 Club is a simple concept. You introduce 4 and then help those 4 to each do the same. 4 each = 16. The total would be 4 + 16 = 20

You
Level 1:  4
Level 2: 16
Total:    20

Now work out the total residual income you would receive each month. I’m not talking about the fast starts or any other up front bonuses. They are just “one time” bonuses.

It’s important to do the calculation so you work out what your residual income is, as this is the money that will keep coming in as long as you place your required order. Now does your 20 club a least pay for your required order? Are you in profit yet? If it does can you see how this would help you?

Let me give you an example to show you the money. This is how I get paid with my network marketing company. My required order to max the compensation plan is 100 business volume or $320 per month.

Me
Level 1: 4 x 100 X 5% =       $ 20
Level 2: 16 X 100 x 40% =   $640
Total: =                              $660
Less: required order =         $320
Profit: =                            $340

What would you do with an extra $340 per month?

Many companies only 5% on each level which would give an income of $100 per month. Wouldn’t you prefer to be earning an extra $540 per month?

Let’s face it most people would know 4 people who would know 4 people who would continue investing in their product if it was being paid for !!

Blogging has been around for a few years now. Most people use blogs to record their thoughts and lives, while the select few use them as a free way to make a fortune.

One guy who uses this to his advantage is Rob Benwell. In 2006 he dished the dirt on the tips and tricks to making a fortune using blogging. But as time passes the old systems become obsolete and new techniques are required. This is where his brand new, fresh off the press Blogging to the Bank 3.0 system comes into play.

For those who know who Rob Benwell is like me, you’ve probably made a killing using blogs.

For those who don’t, he’s the story:

Back in 2005 he was struggling to make any profit online, had dropped out of college and was getting deep into debt. He was trying all the techniques the gurus tell you and wasn’t getting anywhere fast. All of that went in the bin and he started using his own techniques and started making more and more money using simple blogs. In early 2006 he shared this with the world and had a great ebook called blogging to the bank. Tons of people got rich from using these techniques (including me).

He then spoke at Online Marketing Legend Yanik Silver’s underground Seminar where he revealed even more of his underground strategies. Then July 2007 he released Blogging to the Bank 2.0 which showed users his new methods to creating online wealth using blogs. In total both versions have been read by over 50,000 people across the world.

But as I said earlier, the techniques used in these ebooks are now showing there age. Some of them are not even working in the slightest! This is where blogging to the bank 3.0 comes into play.

It’s full of great new techniques that work online right now! Everything’s explained in plain English with all the fluff cut out. I got hold of an advanced copy of the book for a much higher price than what it actually sells for and it has been worth every single cent! I got it in the afternoon and by the evening I was creating new profitable blogs. Within a couple of hours of them being active I had made a nice little profit.

Blogging To The Bank 3.0 teaches you Robs new step by step blueprint to creating highly profitable long term niche blogs using the newest optimization techniques. There’s even a section on advanced Search Engine Optimization. Most people think SEO is difficult but Rob explains this nice and simply so even the blogging newbie will understand it.

Blogging To The Bank 3.0 is a breath of fresh air and I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to make easy money online.

First off you need to know that “flogging your product or business opportunity” will not work. If you are prospecting in this way for your network marketing business you’ll soon find yourself getting into the “my product is better than your product” senario.

Second you need to know that the network marketing leads you generate by yourself are the best real time network marketing leads. So if you really want to learn about mlm lead generation then I suggest you stop and read this through and then go out and immediately put it into action.

When it comes to real time network marketing lead generation if you are prepared to try out the following business opportunity lead generation technique, then things will start to improve for you and your network marketing business.

The Winning Formula

I have found it is a lot better to get my prospect talking about themselves. This can be started very easily with a broad question like. “Gidday, how’s it going?” Then I listen very closely to their response. Once a problem or situation had been exposed I drill down on that a little more to make sure it is a genuine problem.

Then and only then would I offer a solution. Sometimes the solution is the form of the opportunity and sometimes it takes the form of offering a product. If you don’t listen closely you will never know.

Success Started

When I stopped “throwing up over someone” by pushing my business opportunity onto them and instead started asking questions and showing them a solution, my business has grown substantially.

Let’s face it we are a society of talkers and braggers, with a mine is better than yours mentality. If you genuinely want to succeed then “shut up” about your opportunity and offering value.

Right now people are looking for what we have more than ever. People in need are everywhere. However, desperation doesn’t make people stupid. By in large they will still be skeptical about network marketing and not be prepared to try something new. And that won’t change if you come on strong or pushy.

Make The Necessary Change

So if you are having trouble with your prospecting and recruiting start with taking a good hard look at how you approach people. Ask questions and listen. Learn to read people and know if they are ready. It may take a couple of different conversations before you offer them a solution.

It’s better to be working with someone who joins with you and really wants to do the business because they want to do it, than working with someone who joins because you pushed them into it. Avoid wasting your precious time on people who won’t stay the distance anyway.
