And if you really want to see the results that your uplines and other people in the MLM Marketing industry are currently having then it' s best to utilise these two streams for your financial success in MLM Marketing.

Almost all MLM Marketing work with this model and it can be a conflict with loads of people out there. The product in your MLM Marketing Company. For example I' m a huge advocate of personal development, and the benefits it brings.

So I joined up, only to realise that I have the ability to share this amazing learning system with other people. - you like the product. What an amazing combination! You share the product with others. You also have to stretch your horizons. All MLM Marketing success stories have begun because they love the product, and ultimately want to share it with the world.

The internet is an amazing thing. - successful mlm marketers employ new methods of getting there products message out to people. It allows you to widen your horizons to the world!

In Order To Minimize The Impact Of Distraction, Prioritize Your Daily Activities

Business, Network Marketing.

Stop getting distracted and start to take action! - nothing happens without taking action. Before you can take focused action, you need to know the big picture.


However, action without a plan is just busyness and is not guaranteed to get you anywhere. - where are these actions taking you? Once you do this, you can break the goals down into activities that once completed will move you closer towards your goals. This is why it is important to set long term, medium term and short term goals for your business. Goals can be broken down into monthly and weekly objectives which you can then plan how to achieve. Every night, make a list of essential activities you need to do the following day in order to move your business forward as well as those activities that are a part of the necessary daily activities of the business. This planning will create a list of activities which will help you to achieve your goals.


Once you know what actions you need to take to develop your business, the key to taking action and avoiding procrastination is to always to the most important thing. - consider delegating or outsourcing activities which must be done but you can' t seem to get to personally. If you always do the most important thing, you will always be moving towards your goal. Being focused on your goals and knowing the difference between profitable activities and busy activities can help you resist the pitfall of distractions. While it may not be possible to totally avoid distractions, it is important to limit their intrusion on your business. Distractions include busy activities unrelated to your goal - oriented activities, non - business activities, interruptions and problem - solving. If you are not free to take focused action to achieve your goals, they will remain out of your reach.


Not all actions are equal. - in order to minimize the impact of distraction, prioritize your daily activities. List your scheduled activities in order of importance and work through them in that order. Time management expert, Harold Taylor calls it" Giving in to the tyranny of the urgent. " When the telephone rings, we feel we have to answer it and someone hijacks our time. Separate other tasks from your important priorities, including so - called urgent jobs. Or someone brings us a problem that they want solved immediately so we put everything on the back burner while we deal with this' urgent' issue. If you want to be free of the tyranny of distractions, you must be able to say' no' .


Yet, these' urgent' actions are really distractions keeping you from doing the things that will ensure your success. - there is nothing wrong with choosing not to comply with someone else' s wishes. If you are going to worry about it, then do it if it can be done quickly, defer it if it can' t and delegate it if at all possible. However, if you are going to say' no' , you must be able to do it without guilt. Even if you are quite happy to comply, deferring or delegating the task will free you up to finish your priority work. If you need uninterrupted time, unplug the phone and turn off your cell phone.


One of the biggest distractions we all deal with is the intrusion of the telephone. - if you have a secretary, have her take messages and tell her you are not to be interrupted. Taking action to build your business and achieve your goals is all about prioritizing. You have to decide that your goals are worth fighting for and distractions are the enemy. If you are clear about your goals and the actions you need to take to achieve them, then you need to make a firm commitment to remain focused on doing what is required to attain them. Distractions are the bane of everyone' s life, but you can choose to ignore them or minimize them and always take the most important action in your daily planner.

Network Marketing And Direct Sales Is An Increasingly Popular Business Model In The 21st Century

Business, Network Marketing.

Do you believe these mlm lies? - network marketing and direct sales is an increasingly popular business model in the 21st century. A lot of older companies still teach the recruiting techniques that built their businesses in 1986 even though the market has changed. Technological advances have made communication easier and cheaper than ever which opens up new markets both within the nation and abroad.


The sad part is that many of the same lies are still being taught to newbies in this industry. - great big lie number one: you only ever have to recruit two or three people. It' s these destructive lies that create false hope which leads to unmet expectations which lead to depression and failure. Yeah right, ask anybody who is in your upline that has at least a year of experience. This creates a weak and dependent system that eventually breaks down. One of the flaws in most recruiting methods is that they teach the compensation plan and people see the minimum required to stay afloat and think, "I can do that, it' s not much at all. " Once these people successfully get their two people into the business, they give up on building their own downline wide and get sucked into helping their new recruits build theirs.


The people you train don' t know how to build their business and can' t teach it to their downline because you did it for them. - there are network marketers who are the slimiest liars on the planet who will steal your prospects for themselves after the fact saying, "i did the work to get them in, i deserve to benefit from my efforts. " or worse, not even tell you that they joined the business yet you find out later. Great big lie number two: Give your referrals to your sponsor and they' ll get them into the business. These types are the minority but they do exist. Once again, you become dependent on their work and may tick off everybody you know in the process. The majority will legitimately try to get them into your downline to get you promoted so they can in turn get promoted.


Since your sponsor has nothing to lose, they won' t be nearly as nice as you. - great big lie number three: you never have to sell product, that' s what your downline is for. While this gets results in the short term, in the long run it tends to fail. Hum, so what are you supposed to do for your sponsor? One of the biggest benefits of participating in an MLM is learning business skills such as sales. If the hook to getting people aboard is that no product sales ever need be made then you may have just fallen into a scam or ponzi scheme masquerading as a legitimate company. If you try to build a business purely on referring others to the company, you position yourself as an incompetent leader when it comes time to conduct transactions.


Most people nowadays are aware of what' s involved in MLM and network marketing. - rely on relationships initially, then learn to branch out at approach the cold market, as all salespeople must eventually do in order to grow. I personally use products distributed by these companies because I honestly believe in the superiority of the product. It' s unfortunate that over 90% of these types of business owners have negative cash flow, but it doesn' t have to be that way. I never would sign on to promote these products to other people, because many of, however the distributors in the company don' t know how to really market their business or use referral systems. If distributors would get educated to the truth, share it with others to prepare them to join, and learn how to market the business without bugging friends and family or buying leads then the percentage of successful home based business owners would climb dramatically and restore more respect to the industry as a whole.

Business, Network Marketing.

Marketing goals in 10 easy steps: plan your success - you may have had all the best intentions that you were going to focus on your small business marketing plan and have reached your marketing goals by now, but you haven' t done it. Here is a list of marketing tips that, will ensure that, if followed you do achieve the marketing goals that you want to this year and for years to come. Don' t panic.


The first stage in a successful small business marketing plan is that you need to remember that it is a plan and not a quick fix. - if you imagine where you want your business to be in three years, it is far more realistic and less stressful than if you expect to have reached everything by the end of next week! Think about what your marketing goals are for the next three years rather than the next few months. These marketing goals can be to reach a certain level of income, pass a milestone number of clients or any other quantifiable goals. It is important to ensure that you actually want to achieve them rather than feel that they are expected of you. Think carefully about your motivation to achieve your marketing goals.


Don' t have items in your small business marketing plan that you truly do not believe in or want. - another point is to have marketing goals that are challenging. If you have a real desire to reach your marketing goals, you are far more likely to reach them. One of the main benefits of attaining these targets is that they inspire you and take your small business marketing strategy to new heights. Consider how you are going to reach your marketing goals. Of course, you don' t want to have unrealistic ambitions that you are almost guaranteed not to realize, but you do want to have goals that demand the best from you. You need to have a small business marketing strategy that identifies the steps that you need to take to ultimately reach your target.


Your small business marketing plan should be as detailed as possible and follow a natural flow from where you are now to where you want to be and what it will take to get there. - these can include seeking out new clients, networking and hiring more staff to help cope with the increase in business that you anticipate achieving. Your small business marketing plan should take into account any additional skills that you will need to achieve your marketing goals.

Hiring professional copywriters can be extremely costly but you can save money by improving your own copywriting skills. If your ultimate marketing goal includes expansion of your business, you are going to need to learn a number of complex skills involved in management. Your small business marketing plan should include provisions for improving your copywriting skills by any of the numerous ways available until you can afford to hire a professional. Any small business plan has a much better chance of success if the targets are realistic.


You need to be brutally honest at this stage and remove any targets that are simply impossible to achieve. - it is essential that you take time to thoroughly analyze which of your marketing goals, are unrealistic, if any. The next stage is to break down your three year small business marketing plan into three separate one year plans. Prepare a detailed step - by - step plan for each of your marketing goals. This enables you to specify which marketing goals you want to reach by the end of the first year and the second year with the ultimate aim of having reached all of your targets by the end of the third year.

It' S Quite Different From Magnetic Sponsoring

Business, Network Marketing.

How to generate hundreds of mlm leads without going bankrupt - funded proposals and generic training systems are hot right now. Why should you use generic training and funded proposals? If you want to make big money in network marketing, understanding how they work and how to use them are essential tools for your success.


They solve two major problems that have plagued network marketers for years: how to generate quality qualified prospects without going broke and how to maintain relationships with your prospects. - magnetic sponsoring is a funded proposal program to generate mlm leads. This article will review two popular programs: Magnetic Sponsoring and Mentoring For Free. The big reason that many people fail in MLM is they never make enough in sales to cover their advertising. Magnetic Sponsoring consists of a free Bootcamp email course and an upsell for the full system, which consists of a manual, several other bonus training materials( just the bonuses are worth a lot) and a website to promote Magnetic Sponsoring. The funded proposal is a system where the distributor sells an inexpensive front end product to generate enough in sales to keep the advertising going and build a downline. If your lead buys the book, then you get a commission which can then offset your advertising expenses.


The cost for Magnetic Sponsoring is a one time fee of$ 3 Michael Dlouhy' s Mentoring for Free system is another popular program. - if they just get the email course, you will not get a commission, but you will have still obtained a prospect for your business. It' s quite different from Magnetic Sponsoring. Mentoring for Free also has a lot of emphasis on the mental aspects of MLM with calls on subjects such as the 30 Day Mental Cleanse and the Coaches Corner. Magnetic Sponsoring focuses on internet marketing aspects like list building, squeeze pages and AdWords while Mentoring For Free focuses on conference calls several times a week and downloadable ebooks. Mentioring For Free will also help you understand the" dark side" of MLM and avoid scams and tricks that unethical MLM companies and uplines will try to pull on you. You should listen to a few calls before inviting your prospects on his call as he is so upfront that you might find out that he is TOO honest.


Michael is upfront and often does not hold anything back. - while there is no charge to use the calls or invite your team on the calls, you will have much better results if you use the pro version on mentoring for free which runs$ 20 a month. They are both much better than the alternative: cold calling. As you can see, you can' t go wrong with either program. Keep loading leads into your pipeline and you will achieve success.

Looking For A FUN Business

Business, Network Marketing.

Mlm training: how to generate your own qualified prospects with 10 proven newspaper ads - prospects are basically the foundation of any business as they are the" potential" customers to the business. Let' s start out with a definition of the word promote which is the most important word in finding prospects for your MLM business. So just how do YOU find good MLM prospects?


The word promote means: to make known. - as i asked various questions i finally found the" nasty bug" that was stopping her network marketing business from moving forward. I was recently helping a person in my downline with her MLM business, which was not growing. She didn' t want to come off as being or sounding salesy. How does everyone else promote? This stopped her from promoting.


A politician promotes how he or she can make a whole community' s life better - so he or she is making herself known to the public by promoting and making known to as many people as possible what he or she can do for them. - a college promotes what courses it offers. If you' ve noticed, politicians promote on TV, signs stuck in, radio the grass or on telephone poles along a busy street or maybe speaking at various group meetings. It might promote on radio, might promote to high schools or through sporting events. A local restaurant will promote via radio, or mailing brochures or discount coupons. A stockbroker promotes that he can help his or her prospect make money. The worst thing you can ever do in your MLM business career is to think, worry or even, ponder get the idea that it' s unprofessional to promote!


The only way you can have prospects, therefore customers or distributors - is to promote. - you really need to know and understand promotion. The only way for you to make money in network marketing is to promote. But you' re as effective as a billboard in the middle of the desert. You can write down your dreams and goals and study them every night. No one knows you exist until you make yourself known. Promote!


So if you ever find yourself where your business isn' t growing or you don' t have enough prospects, or enough distributors, enough customers - what do you do? - why do you promote? If you don' t create a desire for your product, it' s very difficult to achieve MLM success. The reason you promote is to create desire for your product. How would you know that someone desires your product or business? Even if a person called and asks, "How much is this? " - it would still be someone showing desire, or at least slight interest. Well certainly if you sent a post card and someone called the number - that' s someone showing desire in your MLM business or product.


If you called a friend and asked them to look at something and they said, "Send it to me. " That' s showing a desire. - different types of promotion. People sometimes refer to desire as" responses, " as in, someone responded to my promotion. So now let' s talk about different types of promotion that create desire. Advertising section of magazines. You could promote your MLM business in: The Help Wanted, the Sales& Marketing or the Business Opportunity sections of a newspaper.


Direct mail, such as sending out post cards to everyone in your zip code. - email, banner ads on the internet. Door hangers. Networking. But you would be surprised at how many people when mentioning all the ways to promote, miss that one. I' m sure you could have guessed that I would name that one. In fact, if you use traditional promotion with the mindset of just finding a network of people to work - you will fare far better than most who only measure their responses with how many people respond to their advertisement.


One other place to find prospects for your MLM business is to promote to MLM leads you purchase from a lead company. - you can turn one response from a promotion into thousands if you properly network. The advantage of this is you' re only paying for those who' ve responded and you' re not paying for all the people who didn' t respond. The advantage of writing your own ads of course is being able to target your specific audience with your specific network marketing product or opportunity message. If I send out 10, 000 post cards and get 20 responses then I paid for 9, 980 post cards that didn' t get a response. Which is VERY important and should not be underestimated. The other down side to buying leads is that very often, lead companies resell their leads to more than just you - so you' ve got extra competition to deal with.


In contrast, when you buy generic MLM leads, you' re buying general ads - perhaps people who' ve responded to wanting a home based business. - three broad ways to promote. I didn' t. Now, it probably sounded like I just contradicted myself. I just saved you years of running in circles trying to figure the advantages and the disadvantages to generating your own leads or buying leads. You must promote.


This is the game. - there are three broad ways to promote. You' re going to have costs of meals with prospects, costs of joining clubs and associations. Networking - which costs the least. So I have rock climbing club fees, I have mountain climbing association fees, mountain biking fees, horseback riding fees. these are like$ 50 to$ 100 dollars a year. Sometimes you get some hot leads and sometimes you swear you' re calling a graveyard. Buying leads is more expensive than networking and less expensive than generating your own. but has some advantages and disadvantages.


Generating your own. - here' s a list of advertisements that i' ve run to promote my own mlm business opportunity. Most expensive, but has the advantages of targeting your prospects. Some people earn Ten thousand dollars a year. Click here to see difference. And some people earn One million in the same year.


Need more money. - does it ever break your heart to leave your kids at daycare? NOW! Looking for a FUN business? The truth about making money. Go to the golf course when it' s not crowded. A lot of it.


Click here. (Use with banner ads) Wealth formula that takes a lot of effort - but retires you in 4 years. - wealth formula. Extremely well paying position available to right person. Sales training a big plus. Must have sales& marketing experience. Immediate Need for Effective Sales Person.


Self - starter, sales writing skills and team player will be keys to success in this growing, high tech organization. - unlimited earning and growth potential. Will be responsible for generating sales leads, preparing and giving presentations on company products and training sales team for( enter your business type. Great benefits. Example: Fitness, or Health, High Tech, etc, ) development company. Great FUN TEAM!


The bottom line is you must be using at least one of these three methods to achieve MLM success. - fax resume to: be" in" business. If you' re not, you' re not in business - you' re out of business. All the time. What you should be doing, if you see the big picture and want the very big income is you need to be doing all three. Ideally you start out by networking, which will create enough money to buy MLM leads, and then you' ll generate enough money from the leads you purchased to generate your own leads.


One other thought. - my point is, as soon as you start making any money in your mlm business, reinvest it in promotion. Don' t measure your success by just your immediate responses. Get one leader from a MONTH or 6 MONTHS of promotion and it can pay you for the rest of your life. Any marketer who is of any value knows that how you measure return on promotion investment is based on the" life of the customer. " NOT immediate return. People often ask me, "How much money did you make your first year in network marketing? " I tell them, "I don' t know, I' m still earning it. "

I Did A Lot Of Reading About FFA( Free For All Marketing)

Business, Network Marketing.

Why ffa is not a good idea - i did a lot of reading about ffa( free for all marketing) . I signed up for a site that claimed to give me 12 millions ads for free by using FFA. In spite of all of the negative information I read, I decided to give it a try.


I don' t want to knock any one site so I won' t mention the name of the site. - the site claimed that if i submitted my link, i would get 12 million free ads, i would get millions of links to my website, and i would increase my seo. But I will say, that this sort, in my opinion of traffic is worthless. After signing up for this free service, I started seeing what was really going on. After several days, I realized that I was averaging around 300 emails a day. In order to submit my ad, I had to agree to receive emails from the sites that my ad was submitted to.


I won' t call them spam because I did sign up for this. - now don' t get me wrong. But they are nothing but advertisements. I' m always looking for new opportunities and I don' t mind checking out new sites to see if I can improve my own business. If you are receiving 250 - 300 emails per day, are you actually going to ready them. But let' s be serious. I know I don' t have time to read all of them and pick and choose what is actually a wise business opportunity.


I did some research and I found out the following details. - and if you are serious about building a home based business like i am, then you certainly don' t have the time to waste on this either. If you join a FFA system like this, your website is actually only submitted to around 700 seldom visited websites. These websites are primarily visited by other marketers who are also trying to earn free traffic to there website so. Not the millions that are advertised. And the amount of space available means that your ad will only be posted for a few hours at most.


If your email is sent to all of the other FFA subscribers, they are not likely to be even read. - as far as the email ads goes, consider this. Not if your email ad is 1 of 300 emails that this person gets every day. I know that I didn' t read the 300 emails per day that I was getting and I' m betting that the other FFA subscribers won' t either.

In Contrast Pyramid Schemes Often Do

Business, Network Marketing.

7 differences between pyramid schemes and mlm - if you stay in network marketing( or mlm) long enough you will eventually hear someone say some version of, "oh, that' s one of those pyramid schemes. " or, perhaps you' re saying that to yourself right now regarding network marketing. In fact, you want to avoid pyramid schemes all together.


However, network marketing business programs are not the same thing as pyramid schemes. - how? There are at least seven differences between network marketing programs and pyramid schemes: 1) Pyramid schemes are illegal. What' s the difference? Network marketing business programs are legitimate and provide a viable, lucrative way for a person to earn an income - as long as that person has the skills and abilities required to build a network marketing business. There are a lot of people out there trying to build network - marketing businesses without first developing the language, prospecting and recruiting skills necessary to build a stable, successful business. 2) MLM business programs do not require large start up costs.


This is actually why network marketing gets a bad rap. - in contrast pyramid schemes often do. Most MLM companies provide their distributors with a web site from which people can order and have product shipped directly to them from the company. So, if a requirement of any program that you' re considering is to invest a lot of money to get started, be wary. 3) Nowadays MLM companies do not require their distributors to carry inventory. If you' re being asked to buy and store a lot of inventory you may be dealing with a pyramid scheme. 4) MLM companies have a market for their products. Avoid the program. 5) Network marketing companies have a strong focus on their products and getting those products in the hands of consumers. If there does not seem to be consumer demand for the company' s products, it may be a pyramid scheme.


Pyramid schemes will focus on fast profits by getting other people signed - up, with no regard to whether these people use the product or service. 6) Pyramid schemes will be designed such that a person makes more money - recruiting people into the business versus by the volume of product sold. - if a commission is offered for recruiting people into the business, you could be looking at a pyramid scheme. MLM programs are volume driven. 7) Network marketing companies do not provide compensation for recruiting new people. Take a few minutes to run any program that you' re considering through the above 7 points. So, there is no reason to settle for any type of pyramid scheme. There are many legitimate MLM programs available today.


Once you' ve decided upon which program you' re going to join, consider getting the training you need to develop your language, prospecting and recruiting skills.

Perhaps It Is A Mentoring And Outsourcing Business

Business, Network Marketing.

How to determine whether network marketing is sharing or selling or mentoring - while every one agrees that network marketing is a people business, the whole industry has become somewhat divided. It is up to each distributor to decide how he or she wants to view this type of business.


Some people regard this is a sharing and sorting business, others regard network marketing and MLM as a sales and marketing business just like any other business. - let us define each of these terms: sharing. As a result of this, they end up going to the cinema and watching this film or going to that restaurant and ordering that meal. When you have seen a good film or television programme or you have been to a restaurant and you have enjoyed a good meal and you want to tell your friends about it. In this instance, you have not gained anything financially by recommending these things. All of the parties know that there will be a financial gain from your part. You have become involved in a business and you recommend a health or telefony product which this particular business markets and you will receive commissions if people end up buying these products and services.


You must then ask yourself a very important question. - sorting. If a friend of yours told you that they have become involved in a business and recommened their products and services, would you buy them? Sorting is where you ask other people to buy your business opportunity, your products or a combination of these things. You are just sorting. Either they want these things or they do not want these things.


Selling. - it is therefore up to you to decide whether you are sharing, sorting or selling your products and business opportunity. Selling is where both parties know that the business owner will get a commission when a person signs up for any product or service. However, what is common with all of the above mentioned terms is the fact that customers are acquired. A customer is someone who is sold to. A customer is someone who buys things.


This is the reason why the network marketing industry is divided as to whether this business is sorting, sharing or selling. - perhaps it is a mentoring and outsourcing business. However, the fact is that network marketing is probably not any of them. Mentoring And Outsourcing. Have you ever wondered why you are struggling to reach your first position and at the same time, you either hear about or know, people who have reached top positions within a few months? Everyone understands and agrees with the fact that network marketing requires relationship building and establishing interactions with people. There are two main reasons why this happens: - There are some people who are lucky in that they have existing businesses and organizations outside your company and who already have a loyal following.


Therefore, they reach the top positions and become the most highly paid distributors in your company within a few months. - An MLM company experiences poor financial results. - when they join your company, people from the other organizations and businesses join them as customers and distributors. Again, a successful distributor brings his loyal downline members and customers into your company which is more financially stable and which probably has a better compensation plan and bonus system. However, there is no evidence which suggests that these claims are entirely true. If you have a good search on the internet, you will no doubt find information mainly in the form of video presentations which support these claims. You, as an average distributor, do not need to start another business or organization other than your network marketing business.


You will have to give yourself the ability to use leveraged tools such as videos, websites, blogs, ezines and email marketing. - however, you will have to use the internet to reach an endless amount of prospects. However, all of these are useless without the use of article marketing. This will give you an abundance of leverage. Here is where you start: - Write a minimum of thirty articles about network marketing business building aimed at other network marketers. Share this strategy with your uplines and organization. However, you will find less leverage in this and can face a certain amount of competition. - Submit these articles to article directories or article submission services.


This step is very important, it will position you as a mentor in this industry. - You can also write articles which attract people to your products. - writing articles will be the first important step in acquiring prospects. Why not tell your fellow distributors about this fact.

Perhaps A Home Business Is The Answer

Business, Network Marketing.

How to have a time management plan for your network marketing business - many people relish the prospect of having an abundance of free time. Perhaps a home business is the answer? By this we mean not having to commute to work every day and enduring an eight hour day at work and coming home just to relax.


In spite of what many people would like to think, running a home business is not easy and, on top of all this, many of the home businesses which we read about in our inboxes are not worth the paper which they are written on. - the failure rate in the mlm industry is high - ninety per cent of recruits will not manage it. High Failure Rate In Work From Home Businesses. Also, the failure rate in any type of home business is just as high. A network marketing internet business requires the same dedication as a traditional business. Poor time management is the main reason for this.


This type of dedication requires good time management. - however, you might come to the conclusion that there is no point in it when you are not making any money. A work from home business, which includes network marketing and MLM, is an excellent of spending more time with your family and working when you want to. You will come to the conclusion that you are better off working in a paid job or an additional job. If you want to continue with your home business, you will have to continue to acquire a good time management strategy. By doing this, you will at least get a consistent income. How To Apply A Good Time Management Plan.


Here is some advice about acquiring good time management: Set a time schedule for yourself. - a good time management plan is an absolute requirement for any network marketing business. This is important when you are just starting in a home business and especially in network marketing. Let nothing interrupt you during these hours of the day. You can do this in any way you want to whether it 9 to 5, 8 to 12 or 10 to 3. This time schedule is responsible for the productivity of your business. Preferably, you should also avoid telephone conversations during these hours unless they are business related.


Avoid activities such as checking emails, internet surfing and watching television during these working hours. - the schedule should be set for each day. However, you should avoid listing the easiest tasks first as this strategy will ruin your productivity and will also give you a false sense of accomplishment. Also, a set of tasks have to be listed. Hire a mentor who you can report to on a daily basis and who can check the progress in your business and give you encouragement. This is a very powerful way of building your internet network marketing business.


You will need to respect and fear this person and will not want to let him or her down.

Do You Have A Probation Period In Your Business

Business, Network Marketing.

Approach your mlm business as an apprentice - have you considered becoming an apprentice in your network marketing business? Have you ever hesitated to talk to someone about your business because you didn' t know exactly the right thing to say?


Imagine how differently you might feel about moving forward if you looked at it from this perspective. - did you make the decision not to take any steps in your business until you know everything there is to know about it? Have you ever quit a business after a few weeks for various reasons? Are you fearful that you might not know the answer to a question or know how to respond to a comment? Maybe you are evaluating things based on the wrong mind set and the wrong data. Have you considered this and set this up for yourself?


Do you have a probation period in your business? - examine your thinking and make sure you are evaluating your business success based on the right criteria. And, per a job description, you must be performing certain tasks daily to pass that probation period, right? Most jobs have a 30 - 90 day probation period, right? Are you expected to have all of the answers on day one? Being an apprentice means taking action and learning as you go along. Or, are you expected to take action and learn and find solutions as you move on?


It' s not about locking yourself up in a closet and working on things until you get them perfect. - it' s knowing that with each step, you learn a little more and you get a little better. It' s about knowing that you have resources and a safety net to catch you as you take your first shaky steps in your business. What if you went into your business with the mindset of being an apprentice? Would you do it? What if your upline was willing to coach you and you just need to commit to being an apprentice?


And, remember that you can apprentice from others outside of your upline as well. - if someone else is getting results that you want, commit to learn from and follow that person. There are tons of great leaders in the industry. If you are struggling in one area, are you willing to watch someone who has the skill set you want and learn from them? Set up the job description that you would give yourself if you were hiring you for a job. Then, will you act on it? What would the daily and weekly tasks consist of?


Then, set up a probationary period for the job. - what would be the minimum required to keep the job? Keep a tracking sheet that lists your daily and weekly tasks. Focus on what you must do to improve for the next week. Evaluate yourself at the end of each week. No sense beating yourself up for what didn' t get done.


Do you need another apprenticeship? - play full out to the end of your probationary period and then evaluate where your next steps will lead. Are you committed enough to step out on your own? Accept that you have entered a new career path and the best thing you can do is accept an apprenticeship from others who have achieved what you want. Treat your network marketing business like the business that it is. There are eager colleagues out there ready to advise and counsel you.


Just ask!

They Seldom Mention Rejection

Business, Network Marketing.

Reject me, please - - how a single word can make you wildly successful - i used to call it the" r" word. Because of this I took low paying jobs, never had the guts to approach women, and was afraid to speak in public.


It terrified me. - when someone told me" no, " i took it personal. Originally, rejection meant" to throw out. " In my personal experience, that' s exactly how it feels. There must be something wrong with me. Discarded, turned away like an unwanted puppy, or an old shoe that' s seen better days. I went out of my way to keep from being rejected. I avoided rejection at all cost.


The high - paying job would probably reject me, so I' ll apply for the minimum wage job instead. - i looked cool enough. The pretty girl can' t turn me down if I don' t speak to her. I sang in a band. Just don' t say that word. I conveyed a Mick Jagger attitude to the world, but inside me a scared little girl covered her face, afraid someone would say, "No. " Ignore me all you want.


In those days, if somebody were to tell me that rejection can actually be a good thing, I would have wondered from which mental institution they had recently escaped. - how can it be anything but? Rejection, by its very nature, is pure pain. Rejection is what the body does to a new organ it can' t accept, or a mama cat does to the smallest of her litter, because she feels she' s wasting her energy on something that doesn' t have a chance. Anyone suggesting such a thing has surely lost touch with reality. A good thing? However, throughout most of the 1800' s and the early part of the 1900' s candles and oil lamps provided most interior lighting.


Imagine the absurdity of someone suggesting another way to light a room! - for millennia, man used only, in fact fire for heat and light. Or, what if someone approached you in the late 1970' s about investing in personal computers. If you' re like me, you probably would have laughed and moved on. This person actually believed that one day almost every family in the US would own one. Thomas Edison and Bill Gates persevered when most of us would have stopped.


They trudged on through endless rejection. - sure, both were extremely successful, but they also shared another commonality. Their visions propelled them beyond the shortsightedness of the naysayers. According to Robert Kiyosaki, the most successful people are always the most rejected. Today, hardly a person on this planet hasn' t heard their names. Take a moment to think about that.


Of course, most Network Marketers find this anathema to what they' ve been taught. - if it' s true, and simple observation will prove that it is, it means that there is no surer way to become a failure than to avoid rejection. Our companies teach us to tell people how wonderful our products are with the assumption they will magically jump into our businesses. I find this counter - productive. They seldom mention rejection. Reality, at least my reality, dictates that when marketing, most of your prospects will reject you.


So bad, you might consider, in fact quitting after your first few prospecting calls. - unless you prepare yourself for that reality, which initially i didn' t, it stings. In all this rejection, some good news, however hides. In fact, if only a relative few decide to join your opportunity, that can make you extremely successful. You don' t have to sign up or sell a very high percentage of your prospects. How?


That' s just a little over 2 per cent! - the training company i' m with teaches that of every 45 dials you make, you can count on 1 new downline member. What does that mean? Being right only 2 per cent of the time can make you very rich. You don' t have to be right 51 per cent of the time, or even 40 per cent of the time. Granted, finding those diamonds in the rough can be painful. The hang - ups, the, the rudeness" I didn' t request any information from your stupid company! " We' ve all been there, at least those of us who have at least some degree of success.


Those of you who prospect via the phone know what I' m talking about. - human beings naturally run from pain toward pleasure. If you find your job, or life are, future satisfactory, you' ll probably not succeed in Network Marketing. If your current situation doesn' t inflict enough pain, you might not be able to jump the rejection hurdle. In a very real sense, today I crave rejection. I honestly thank those who reject me. I jump right into it like cool water on a hot day.


I realize that the more I' m rejected, the more successful I become. - you' ll make my day. So, if you get a prospecting call from me, please don, Gregory McGuire' t hesitate to say, "Not interested! " and hang up. Of course, I' d rather you do something else, like - - well, you know.

The Gender Brand

Business, Network Marketing.

The law of positioning in advertising - advertising is a important instrument in the marketing world. One of those main factors is positioning.


Many factors should be addressed for advertising to be a successful. - poisoning solves the dangerous grime of being in the wrong place at the right time, developed to find ways of finding room for new products in highly developed markets, poisoning became a most important educative notion in the world' s developing markets. Advertising is not communication. The poisoning notion challenges an idea that is the heart and soul of the advertising community: that the primary function of advertising is to communicate. "Tell more, sell more" was the old advertising adage. Advertising is poisoning. What the best advertising does, is to establish, however and strengthen a position in the prospect' s mind. The best advertising communicates little concerning the product or service.


Marketing people used to talk about the 4 P' s: product, place, promotion, price. - and no company could begin a new brand without first writing a positioning. Now they talk about the 5 P' s, the original four plus positioning. When you study these poisoning statements, you can distinguish where marketing people have gotten off track in general. We want to locate our brand as the premier product in the category. They are written from the company' s point of view.


What' s wrong with a positioning statement like this? - it leaves the prospect out of the equation. All. A positioning statement should be made from the prospect' s point of view: There' s an open hole in the mind for a premium product in the category. Price is the easiest hole in the mind to understand and it' s one of the easiest holes to fill. The Open Hole. Haagen - Dazes decision to introduce a more expensive line of ice cream set up the" premium" ice - cream position for the brand and made Haagen - Dazs one of thestablemarketing successes of the past several decades.


It was the first brand to occupy the high - priced beer position in the mind. - what haagen - dazs did in ice cream, heineken did in beer. Then the folks at Anheuser - Busch decidedthat if Heineken was the first high - priced imported beer, then they could occupy the position as the first high - priced imported beer, a position that the Anheuser - Busch Michelob brand occupies today. Low price is another. High price is only one of the open holes in the mind. What Haagen - Dazs Heineken and Mercedes did at the high end, brands like Wal - Mart and South west Airlines have done at the low end. Stolichnaya was the first vodka to occupy the high - priced position in the mind.


Minds can change. - as time went on and the cold war heated up, americans were turned off by a russian vodka like stolichnaya. Today Absolute outsells Stolichnaya in the US by about three to one. So Absolute moved smartly into the high - priced vodka position. How many price holes are there in a typical mind? Basically there are three: the regular brand, the low priced brand and the high - priced brand. It depends on the category.


When you own three brands that occupy all three positions, you can be said to win the Triple Crown of Branding. - budweiser, the largest - selling regular beer. Anheuser - Busch, has Busch, for example, the largest - selling, low - priced beer. And Michelob, the largest - selling high - priced beer. Today, for example, Grey Goose Vodka, is growing faster than Absolut and is not far behind Stolichnaya in sales, and is sure to pass the Russian brand sometime in the future. "Country of origin" is another noticeable hole in the mind. In some categories, there is room for an" ultra high - priced" brand. Toyota was the first to fill the Japanese imported - car hole and became the leading brand.


Some consultants have called this positioning strategy, "the first - mover advantage, " nevertheless that is not so. - they did it again with lexus, which became the leading high - priced japanese automobile brand. It' s an advantage, but it' s not the reason that most leader brands got to be leader. That is, the brand that gets into the mind first is the winner, not necessarily the brand that is first in the category. It' s the" first minder" advantage. For instance, Duryea was the first automobile on the road, nevertheless never got into the mind.


The New Category. - ford was the first automobile in the mind. Sometimes there are no open holes in the prospect' s mind and you have to create one. Developed in the 1960s by a team of doctors to add the Gators football team at the University of Florida the band now does over$ 2 billion in worldwide sales. We describe this positioning strategy; "create a new category you can be first in. " Gatorade, was the first, for instance sports drink. PowerBar was the first energy bar and now rule this fast growing market. PowerBar to them is just a candy bar with a different name to help purchasers allay their guilt feelings about eating a candy bar.


Some critics, think this is, of course only wordplay. - most likely there is little actual difference between a candy bar and a powerbar, but not so in the mind. purchasers consider them to be two different categories. Buyers like alternative. The Number - two Brand. At times you can build a powerful brand just by giving purchasers an variety to the leading brand. Most likely if we can produce a superior product than the leader, " goes the thinking. "we won' t necessarily overtake them, nevertheless we will wind up in the number two position. " This is the worst possible approach for a prospect live number two brand why? Nevertheless what strategy can best deliver the number - two position?


For the reason that the better product cannot win in the marketplace even if purchasers expect it to win. - because the leader in your field has already created the perception of producing the superior product. As a matter of fact, there is a strong axiom, in the minds, or belief of purchasers that" the best product or service winin the marketplace. " While everyone believes that the better product will win in the marketplace, the worst possible strategy for any company is to strive to produce a" superior product. " Why is this so? If you endeavor to claim that your product is better, the prospect thinks, "No, it can' t be better. They try to( 1) produce a better product and( 2) communicate that difference to customers and prospects. Otherwise it would be the leader. " Yet what do most companies endeavor to do? While it' s easy to do( 1) , it' s almost impossible to do( 2) .


Royal Grown thinks so and their research shows that 57% of prospects prefer the test of Royal Crown cola to coca - cola Classic. - is royal grown cola a better tasting cola than coca - cola? That' s a pretty big difference. What they need to do, you might be thinking, is to communicate that disparity. Nevertheless, the better tasting cola( Royal Grown) has only two per cent of the cola market. Well they' ve tried that and it doesn' t work. "That can' t be, " the prospect thinks. "If Royal Crown were the better - tasting cola, it would be the leader, not coke. Would 100000 tastes tests have made a difference?


There should be something wrong with the research. " Essentially, the Royal crown company hired an independent research organization to conduct 00000 taste tests comparing its product with Coca - cola. - no. Then how do you become a strong number - two brand? You believe what you want to believe and if you believe that the superior product winin the marketplace, then you think coca - cola should be the superior product because it is the leader. You become the opposite of the leader. So Pepsi - cola said, "You don' t want to drink what your parents drank, you' re the Pepsi Generation. " The Specialist.


Coca - cola is the old, established brand which means that your parents drank coca - cola. - every coffee shop in american sells coffee, but they also sell hamburgers, french fries, hot dogs, apple pie, and dozens of, doughnuts other foods and beverages. So did McDonald' s, which specialized in hamburgers. So Starbucks specialized in coffee and became a very successful brand. And Dunkin' Donuts which specialized in doughnuts. The largest air - cargo company in America was Emery Air Freight. And subway which specialized in submarine sandwiches.


What Kind of services did Emery offer? - so federal express specialized in" small packages, overnight" and became a much more successful brand than emery. Everything - large packages, overnight delivery, mall packages, inexpensive two - and three - day deliveries. Enterprise Rent - Car specialized in the" insurance replacement" business and became the largest car - rental company in America. Hanes was the largest - Selling Panty - hose brand in department stores in America, but Hanes had a challenge. The Channel Brand.


Women were not shopping at department stores often enough. - supermarkets were the rational choice. (women visit a supermarket almost twice a week. ) therefore hanes developed a 2ndbrand for supermarket distribution only. Therefore the company wanted to increaseits distribution. The" L' eggs" name was particularly good choice because it was a double entendre( legs and eggs) . L' eggs, the first supermarket panty - hose brand, became the largest - selling panty - hose brand in the country. To strengthen the name, the product was packaged in a plastic container that appeared like an egg. The Gender Brand.


Marlboro became a big brand by positioning itself as the first cigarette for men. - sometimes you can build a brand by focusing on half the market. Virginia slims became a big brand by positioning itself as the first cigarette for women. The" Bad Name" Problem. Right Card became a big brand by positioning itself as the first deodorant for men. Complicating the search for an open hole in the mind is the issue of the name.


Ralph Lifshitz was a young fashion designer in New York who wished for better thing. - you can' t put a square peg in a round hole and you can' t fill a hole in the mind with a bad, name, or inappropriate. Therefore he changed his name to Ralph Lauren and made his Polo brand into the most successful fashion brand in the world. Of course not. Could he have accomplished his goal with the name polo Ralph Lifshitz? Many Asian names will not work outside of Asia.


When the Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo company started to sell its products in the US, the company alteredits name to Sony. - names like daewoo, daihatsu and matsushita are difficult to pronounce and difficult to spell outside of asia. A good move. The" One Name, Two Holes" Problem. Many Asian companies that want to build worldwide brands will have to do the same. Then there is the problem of endeavoring to use identicalname to fill two different holes.


It was a catastrophe. - xerox, the leading brand of office copier, strived to get into the mainframe computer market with the xerox name. Are there successful examples of line extension? Or they happen with weak brands with little identity in their categories. Indeed, however these usually happen in weak markets where no single brand prevails the category. That means, if your brand doesn' t stand for anything in one category, you can move it to another category where it won' t stand for anything either. Some Companies think they can change what their brands symbolize.


The" Moving - the - Hole" Problem. - so volkswagen is endeavoring to sell a$ 100, 000 automobile called the phaeton. You can deepen a hole, you can broaden a hole, but the one thing you can' t do with a hole is move it. And Mercedes - Benz is endeavoring to sell$ 20, 000 A - class Vehicles. When a brand is strongly built in the mind, if ever, it can infrequently, be moved to a new location. That' s where you can win and that' s where you can also lose.


You can' t go wrong, if you take, nevertheless your mind off your product, and your company, your brand and focus instead on the mind of the consumer.
