Leads Are The Wheels That Make Your Business Move Forward – Do You Need a New Set?

Leads leads leads, that’s all I ever heard about when I came into the network marketing industry. Well it didn’t take me long to figure out why either. I soon realized real fast, that without a funnel of leads, you’re not going anywhere with your network marketing business, especially those trips to the bank. You won’t be making many of those.

Leads are the wheels that make your business move forward. Do you need a new set? If you do, I would like to introduce you to one that will not only take you forward, but will make the trip faster and so much smoother than you ever dreamed of before. It’s the luxury liner of business leads.

The first thing you need to understand is attraction marketing. I get a lot of questions from newbies that are just joining the network marketing arena, and the first thing they want to do is go out and hammer everyone and their uncle about the next best business that there in. After they’ve chased everyone away and they’re left there standing all alone, penniless, they come to the conclusion that network marketing is a scam and they quit. They pass this onto all their family and friends and that’s why network marketing has received such a bad name. Quitters never win and winners never quit.

Next is to get involved with a marketing system that will teach you how attraction marketing works and how you can generate leads, most of them free, when you implement the right strategies. Now I know that there are a lot of them out there and they vary in prices, and I’ve seen quite a few of them myself, but the best one is My Lead System Pro. MLSP will not only give you training from some of the top earners in this industry but, you will also be introduced and meet some of the up and coming stars. MLSP is by far the best marketing system on the planet.

You have to get the proper introduction and education as to what attraction marketing is all about, from the one who put it all together, Mike Dillard. If you’ve never heard of or seen his explanation of how this system works and how it’s made for him over 7 million dollars, and how it has revolutionized the network marketing industry, you need too as soon as possible. As a matter of fact get seven training videos from Mike Dillard on this subject, absolutely free right here, and start yourself on the right road to leads and prosperity. Listen to Mike himself explain it all to you.

The next step, after you’ve learned some of the basics to attraction marketing, is what I call the grand daddy of all lead system generating tools, LeadNetPro. This is the by far the best that I’ve ever seen in generating leads for any type of business you might have. Once you get your system set up you will never have to pay for a lead again.

Delivering 99% accurate data from some of the top search engines, Google, Yahoo, and more, your business will start to climb very rapidly. You will have more leads than you can handle.

They also have a voice broadcasting system that is just incredible. I’ve never seen anything like it and so easy to do. Once you set it, you can go about your other tasks and come back to leads that want you to call them back, because the system has done all the separating for you. If you’ve ever done cold calling, like I have, you won’t ever have to go through all those hang ups and nasty people again. This works!

Last, but certainly not least, is another favorite of mine and one that I use all the time, IMToolSuite. This is the one stop, has all the tools that every business needs. There is the capture page creator, voice and text messaging, video email, web conferencing, contact manager, fanpage creator, Face book greeter, and nine other tools that are all under one roof. No more having fifteen pages open trying to do everything, this is all at one page for you.

Some of these tools you may have already, like I did, and I was able to save over $100 per month when I could cancel them, because IMToolSuite already had them for me. Kenny Gregg, Cedrick Harris, and Jim Choa, know what it’s like being in the trenches all the time themselves, so who better to put together one of the best business tool boxes that every business owner should have, weather it’s internet or a brick and mortar business, this is a must have for all your business needs.

Leads are the life blood of any business, and without them your business will be heading south real quick. I hope I’ve given you a guide and a road that will help you, and maybe ease all the confusion that is out there.

I know lots of things get thrown at you all at once, but these are the ones that you can hook up too, and will get you to where you want your business to go, and that’s straight up.

God bless

Ever Feel Like Putting Up a “DO NOT DISTURB” Sign on Your Life?

The distractions are a part of life, but distractions in the your business can be devastating. They can come from very important people in your life, but one thing is certain, you cannot let them go unaddressed. They have got to be dealt with and should be dealt with right from the start of you entering into owing your own business.

Ever feel like putting up a “DO NOT DISTURB” sign on your life? I have and maybe you have as well.

I know this is going to be a rehash of something that I posted awhile back, but I think it ‘s that important. I know that it has been something that I have been continually fighting since I entered the network marketing industry with my own business. Every time I think I have it settled, it shows its ugly head again.

Why does everyone constantly tread on your valuable time? Is it because they don’t take you seriously and they don’t hold the same respect or value to your time as you do?

That’s the heart of it. Now I know that there may be some variations to that truth, but that is basically the bottom line. People are not going to take you seriously until you take you seriously.

An example is company events. I never thought that they were as important as they are, so therefore my wife and my family would place other events into my schedule, sometimes without my knowledge, and they just assumed that I would drop everything and rearrange my time to accommodate them, and that’s exactly what I did.

Now don’t get me wrong, I love my family and my family means a great deal to me, and most of the time I would deem the things they wanted me to attend as important, and I would put myself out for them, but I realized that there has to be a definite dividing line between my business and other things, and it’s up to me to keep and hold that line steady.

You should have a business plan and some type of guidelines set up for yourself to follow, and they should be for both short and long-term goals.

I do daily and monthly plans and I have set for myself yearly plans as well. You have to have this set in place and then comes the hard part. Learn to follow them. This learning process can be hard to do, but it’s a process you have to complete.

Leave room for adjustments, as they will come. I don’t mean that you should be so hard and staunch in your attitude, that you are just a drill Sargent and no one can approach you. Be flexible, as this should also be a part of your business plan too.

This past week is a great example of this.

In one week, my grand-daughter asked if I would go with her into court and support her in facing one of the worst nightmares anyone can face.

She is ten years old and has been approached in a sexual manner by someone who she knows. She finally confided in my wife and it has resulted in a court case. I love my grand-daughter and I would drop anything that I was doing to be with her, and her family, during this very difficult time.

In the same week, my daughter-in-law’s father took his own life and the funeral was in the same week. We spent a couple of days with her and her family during another extremely difficult time.

These are situations that you would move events around, and create time in your schedule for. Anyone of you would do the same thing, and these are the things I’m talking about, but the crazy friend of the family who is always calling you, or the daughter who is calling you because she is upset over breaking another nail, those are things that you just don’t have time for at all.

Remember to follow these simple steps.

You have to take your business seriously and you have to set yourself up for success, because no one else will.
Make a business plan and learn to follow it, and I do mean this is a learning process.
Make room for adjustments and only fill them with the important things in life.
Learn to say, “NO”, to the time and energy draining items and people that drain you of your time and energy.
Make sure you get the right amount of sleep and challenge yourself to get healthy.
Remember, It’s OK to put up the “DO NOT DISTURB” sign on your life.

This is what true leaders and successful businesses must do to survive and prosper. Your business will thank you and your family will thank you.

Time Costs Money – What’s the Value You Put on Your Clock?

tick tick - time is ticking away

Tick tick, time is ticking away. Doesn’t it seem just like it was yesterday, as we look back in time and see a younger you, your family, kids, and grand kids. Wow! It just seems to fly by so fast.

We all have the same amount of time. 24 hours in a day and 365 days a year. How many years will we live…well that’s not up for me or you to say, but even if we do take real good care of ourselves and eat right, and exercise, we are still just a tick of the clock away from entering through that door of death, and we will all walk through it one day, we just don’t know when.

With time at a premium, and the old phrase, “Time is money” – what’s the value you put on your clock of life?

I gave thirty-five years of my life to Ford Motor Company, in exchange for money. Some was given to me in straight forward green paper bills, that I exchanged for the necessities of life, and some of my time was exchanged for dental, vision, and healthcare benefits.

I thought it was a good exchange, and some would argue, even today, that I got paid way to much for my time. I guess I say the same thing about athletes and CEO’s of companies, that they get way to much money in exchange for their time, but we pay it anyways.

I think of all the mom’s out their, who are way under paid if you ask me, what would their time be valued in the open market? What would someone pay for their time and expertise in raising other’s children. Well, just check out what a working mom pays for someone to watch their kids, while they are exchanging their time for money, at their places of employment.

It can cost anywhere from 10 – 15,000 dollars a year for childcare in the US, and the price of raising a child in the US today, to age eighteen, is about 300,000 dollars. Are mom’s just a little bit underpaid today? That is the biggest under statement of the year.

What about your time? What kind of value do you put on your time? What is it worth to you? What would others be willing to pay for it?

97% of people work in the system of a 9 to 5 job. They exchange their time for money, as I did for 35 years at Ford Motor Company. I had to ask for permission to go to the bathroom, when I was going to get a vacation, (which was only four weeks a year), and I had to work the hours that they told me to work.

This system is a flawed system, as about 10% of the population in the US has figured out, because that’s the percent of the American population, that is out of work today. They are unemployed, meaning no income coming in. This system doesn’t work.

The government tried to bail this system out, but we’ve all seen the results of that.

I was introduced to a new system, and when I say new, it has been around for a long time, but it was new to me, by a friend of mine awhile back.

He had bought a gum ball machine, and that gum ball machine generated about $60 a month for him. When he had enough money, he went out and bought another gum ball machine, which cost him about $40.

After he had obtained ten gum ball machines he was generating about $600 a month. He had to put in about three hours a week to maintain the machines, so he was exchanging three hours of his time for $600. That’s $200 an hour. How much do you get for your time at your job?

If he had 100 gum ball machines generating $60 a month income, that’s $6000 a month. Let’s say it took him ten hours a week to main this many gum ball machines…that’s $600 an hour for his time. Not even a doctor or psychologist makes that kind of exchange for their time, and they had to go to school for ten years or more, and they are probably still paying those student loans off.

Now if one of the gum ball machines breaks or is out of commission for a while, he still has income coming in on all the rest. His lifestyle doesn’t change at all, because he has multiple streams of income working for him through the other gum ball machines, and that my friends, is what network marketing is all about.

In the old system, when you lose your one source of income, it’s all over. You lose everything. Unfortunately many people are experiencing that today in our country.

Doesn’t have to be that way for you. You can change systems today.

Now I know change is never an easy thing to do. We like our comfort and our easy chairs, but to make things better for the future, you have to climb out of the box of comfort today, so you can live the life of ease and comfort tomorrow, not just for you but for your entire family as well.

Robert Kiyosaki, famed author of the Rich Dad, Poor Dad book series, has two books, that I would highly recommend for you to get and read today.

The first one is called, “The Business of The 21st Century” In this book Robert Kiyosaki talks about how he believes that the network marketing industry affords the best change for anyone to get out of the old system, by starting their own business, through the vehicle of network marketing. He calls it the business of the 21st century. Excellent book.

The next one is called, “Cashflow Quadrant”. In this one Robert talks about the four different quadrants of cashflow and where we all fit in. Some of what I just explained with the story of my friend. Getting into the right quadrant is going to make the biggest change in your life. This is also a must read.

Robert Kiyosaki's Newest Book

To get either one of these books just click your mouse on the picture of the book you wish to have. I would definitely recommend both of them.

With these choices available to you, what would you rather do with your time, exchange it for a paycheck from a 9 to 5 job, or start buying gum ball machines?

Well maybe gum ball machines are not for you, but the network marketing industry has around 5000 companies that market an array of products for you to choose from.

Mine happens to be gold and silver. If your interested in starting your own gold and silver business and would like to work with me, please click on the words, “gold and silver“.

Your time is very valuable, and I think you’re worth it. Start getting paid what you deserve. Your time clock is ticking away.

Entrepreneur or Corporate Ladder

The entrepreneur or the dog eat dog world of the corporate ladder? Which is it going to be?

Entrepreneur or corporate ladder

How proud would you be of your son or daughter was climbing up the corporate ladder and getting to the top with success and wealth following close behind? I would be proud and I think anyone would be proud, because that road is long and gruelling and filled with many hard sleepless nights.

So is the entrepreneur’s road of network marketing. Many long and hard working, sleepless nights are what await the road to success for both avenues, but their is a couple of big differences between the two.

The climb up the corporate ladder is a dog fight. It’s eat or be eaten, step on people or have people step on you. You have to be very careful who your friends are because they are going after the same thing you are, and I guess this is true in any kind of job. You are fighting with your co-workers for that new position that’s opening up, and the big raise that goes along with it.

Not so in the network marketing industry. As I build my organization, I want them to succeed. I want to help them grow and climb the ladder of their success, because in so doing, I secure my prosperity and success also. We all win when we all win.

In network marketing, the only reason you fail is because you quit. I guess that’s true in anything in life. Winners never quit and quitters never win.

Perseverance is the key word in network marketing, because as others quit and fall by the wayside you continue to move on. The only people who get the prize are those who finish the race.

No matter what your reason is, a new career, extra income, or time freedom, you will never achieve these lofty goals working for someone else. Unless you get out of the box and follow your dreams and start your own business, you will always be enslaved to your job. You will always be exchanging your time for a paycheck. Asking permission when and how long you can take your next vacation. Not so when you’re your own boss.

Only network marketing affords you the possibility for this ever happening to you.

Example – Doug Wead. Doug Wead was involved in one of the oldest and largest MLM companies; Amway. He was extremely successful and made a lot of money, but that wasn’t why he was doing it. Network marketing gave him the ability to do what his heart always wanted to do, and that was help others.

He started an organization called, Mercy Corps International, which has distributed millions of dollars in medicine and famine relief to troubled areas around the world. This was where his heart was and this is what network marketing gave him the ability to do.

No mater what your reason why is, only your entrepreneurial mind and the vehicle called network marketing can give it to you.

Entrepreneur or Corporate ladder; I’ll leave that decision up to you, but I would like to close this post with a quote from Doug Wead.

” ‘Believe. You have to believe,’ They keep telling me. I didn’t have to do that. Two times two equals four. You don’t have to believe it. It is four anyway. And my business grew – in spite of myself.

“Tough?

“Emotionally, maybe. Spiritually, maybe. But those battles manifest themselves in failure as well as success. Poverty is no refuge for the war shocked, weary soul.

“And so I conquered. And with the money I co-founded Mercy Corps International. I found my why.” Doug Mead

What’s Your Why?

Two Keys To Your Success – Organization and Discipline

I am pretty much an organized individual, and I consider myself a disciplined person as well, when I put my mind to it. I attribute that to playing sports when I was younger. You had to train and focus on the task at hand. You cannot deviate in any way shape or form from what you wanted to accomplish.

These are lessons that I was taught a long time ago and I have carried them on into my business career. It’s very important to your success on and off the field.

I have always drilled into my children…the keys to your success are organization and discipline. If you don’t have them, you will struggle, no matter what you do.

I must admit, they were not easy to learn, but if you want to be better than the opposition, you have to start with the little things, and you have to work hard to refine these skills in you.

This comes easier to some and harder to others. I do have a tendency to drift off the main road on occasion, and I really had to work to get these qualities down.

When I came into the network marketing industry, I had no idea what I was doing or what direction to take. I was anxious to get started, but lacked the skills to succeed. I just needed someone to point me in the right direction and I was off.

I met up with some of the best network marketers on the planet, who had the success and the experience to show me the steps I had to take to be successful in this industry. My Lead System Pro was the system that they were using and everything that I’ve learned about internet marketing came from them and MLSP.

What do you do first? What is the very first step that you take?

1. Organization

Make a plan, because if you don’t, you will end up like me at the beginning of my network marketing experience. I was all over the map. Doing articles, making videos, and tweeting away a ton of time studying and researching everything under the sun. I had my hand on everything, but not building my business.

Don’t get distracted. You don’t need every new software program that comes out promising all these great leads. That’s what my network marketing friends from MLSP taught me, because I can get distracted.

Internet marketing, or any kind of marketing for that matter, can never take the place of talking to people and building relationships. This is what pays the bills and puts food on the table.

Now you will have to learn marketing skills and how to implement them, but don’t try to take them all in at one time. Rome wasn’t built in a day.

Take one and learn it, then use it, and finally share it with others. This will brand you with others and generate leads for your business. Then you will still have to get on the phone or meet people, and prospect. This is the heart of your business. You cannot push this off to the side, like I did for a long time.

2. Discipline

Now, that you have organized and have a plan, comes the hard part. Putting that plan into action.

They say if you do something for thirty days, it becomes a habit, and you will continue to do it without thinking. Just like breathing, but you have to do what Nike says…”just do it”. Quit thinking and contemplating, and making sure all your pencils are sharp…just do it!

It’s so easy to get side tracked, even for the best of us, but once you have organized a plan, all that’s left is putting it into action.

For me, once I get into the flow, ounce I get rolling….look out! Don’t get in my way! I hate interruptions, I hate getting pushed off the road, just point me in the right direction and I’m gone.

If you will learn how to organize yourself and your time, and discipline yourself to the task at hand, you will be successful.

I want to leave you with a final word from Art Williams. On February 10, 1977 Art Williams and 85 associates founded their own company, A.L. Williams & Associates, better known today as Primerica. A self made billionaire, Art spoke at a company convention. Listen to what he says.

The One Product That Everyone Wants and Needs

There are about 5000 MLM companies in the network marketing industry; 5000 different products or services that are being offered to people every day. To get involved in an MLM business today usually means a certain amount of cash up front to get the business started. Usually you are placed on an auto-ship for the product that you are marketing. If its juice then you are probably on an auto-ship to receive $100 0r $200 or it might even be $500 worth of juice being shipped to your house every single month. If its vitamins, then you are required to receive $100 or more in vitamins every month shipped to your house.

Vitamins are good. Taking care of you is good. I have been taking vitamins for most of my life.

There is only one problem. When you are done taking all your vitamins you have an empty bottle. When you’re done drinking all your juice, you have an empty bottle. Two empty bottles. What do you think you could get for those empty bottles? There isn’t even a deposit on them. You get nothing. You throw them in the trash. No value left. It’s all gone.

Numis Network has the one product that everyone wants and needs, and it carry’s an intrinsic value that nothing else has. This auto-ship has no expiration date on it. Like a fine wine, this product gets better with age. You can keep it and pass it down to your kids. They make wonderful gifts and people will love you for them. Not to many people complaining that they have too much gold and silver lying around.

You see the product that Numis has and the one that you will receive on your auto-ship every month is…Money! Who wouldn’t want to receive an ounce of silver every month in their mailbox? Not a silver bullion coin. One professionally graded numismatic collectible MS-70 silver coin shipped to your door every month, a perfect coin. This is an ounce of silver from one of the government mints around the world that specifically produce these coins for collectors.

A 100 billion dollar a year business; 11 million dollars is being spent every hour on these graded collectible coins. Yes, there are a lot of people that collect coins and Numis Network has positioned itself as the only company, using the vehicle of the network marketing industry, to market these beautiful magnificent coins.

What would you do if you collected a silver coin like this every month for the next five years? Do you think that your financial well being just might be a little bit better? What if you collected all those juice bottles for the next five years? Where would your financial well being be with them? Well you might be able to paint some fancy flowers on them and sell them at a garage sale.

A natural question many people have is “What will these coins be worth in 5 years?” Because we love coins so much and we believe they will become priceless treasures enjoyed by you and your family, we don’t want anything to hold you back from building your own valuable collection.

With our revolutionary Five Year 100% Buy Back Guarantee we’ve taken any fear or hesitation out of building your own personal collection of the World’s most beautiful graded silver coins through our exclusive Silver Coin of the Month Club.

Think about this.

Do you know of any other product or collectible that you can own, enjoy, use, share and display for 5 years, then return to the merchant for 100% of the original purchase price? That’s unheard of!

Seriously folks, the economy have created a perfect storm for Numis Network. Not only receive an ounce of silver every month, but create a business that helps others do the same and you could bring in another stream of income that would help your financial situation right now!

It’s your choice. If I drove up to your house with two trucks; one filled with juice and vitamins and the other with gold and silver collectible coins, and I gave you the choice to take all you could from only one truck, what would you choose?

4 Reasons Why I Joined Numis Network

Network marketing has been around for over one hundred years. Avon, the oldest network marketing company around, was started back in 1886. It’s in 140 countries and has 10 billion dollars in sales every year. And you thought network marketing was a pyramid scheme.

Most people join because a friend is in, or a family member has joined and they are looking for others to build their organization, and these are the people that will start out, maybe sign a couple of people, and after a couple of months, they will quit. These are the ones who give network marketing a bad name.

I am going to give you four reasons why I joined Numis Network. These are four reasons you must have when you are looking to start any network marketing business. When these ingredients are there, you will be giving yourself the best opportunity for success.

1. Product

The first thing that everyone is looking at is the product. What are you going to be marketing, is naturally a very big ingredient in the mix. There are a lot of choices out there, and a lot of different industries to choose from. Juice, and vitamins from the 700 billion dollar health and wellness industry, and soaps, oil, phones….. the list goes on and on.

Numis Network has one of the most talked about and popular products around today, gold and silver. It’s on TV, stores are sprouting everywhere saying, “we buy gold”. Not only that, but gold and silver graded collectible coins is in a 100 billion dollar marketing niche, and Numis Network is the only company, using the vehicle of network marketing, to market these collectible coins in this niche. This niche is almost as big as the entire 120 billion dollar network marketing industry put together.

Think about this, every hour, eleven million dollars is being spent on collectible coins. People collect a lot of different things, and a whole lot of them collect coins.

2. Leadership

When I got involved in network marketing, I didn’t really know a whole lot. I teamed up with some people that knew a lot more than me and had been doing it successfully for a whole lot longer as well. When they introduced me to take a look at Numis, I knew it was something that I needed to pay attention too, and it was.

Ian Cordell and Chris Kent have been friends since the third grade. They both established a company called, “International Direct Selling Technology Corporation”. Their company is the provider of technology and software services for almost 400 hundred direct selling companies. Think they might have a few good ideas on how to put together a great compensation plan?

Then there is Jake Kovorkian. He’s been around for more than twenty years, and in his last company, Vaxa International, he built a sales force of over $500,000 a month. Needless to say, they made him president of the company.

Last, but not least, is Mike Mezack. Maybe you’ve seen Mike on TV with the Home Shopping Network. He’s been selling modern issue gold and silver coins there for the past twenty years. He has produced sales in excess of one billion dollars, and is regarded as the greatest numismatic salesman in the world. He works for me now, (and everyone else at Numis), and is my numismatic expert on all sales and educational videos. Visit my website and you’ll see him at work.

3. Market

Do you think that there just might be a pretty good market right now for gold and silver collectible coins? The market couldn’t be better. Everybody loves talking about it and no one is ever offended by it. Nobody minds having it collect in their closets or bedroom shelves. There’s no expiration date on it, and it has an intrinsic value that no other product has. As a matter of fact, if I had been collecting these incredible coins for the past ten years, the ones that were the oldest would still have a value attached to them. Can you say that about a juice or a vitamin?

4. Training

Duplication is something that you have to have in your network marketing business or you’re going to be in a boat without a paddle. If you don’t have a system of training and duplication, you may start out good, but you will fizzle out rather quickly.

Numis Network has an incredible system of training and duplication in place. I just plug my people into it and now I have more time to go out and recruit. Not only does my organization grow, but it grows the right way, assuring me of a continued residual income that will last a long long time.

These are the reasons I choose Numis Network over the other five thousand companies in the network marketing industry and these are the ingredients that you must have when you are looking to start your business.

Is there a need for your product?
Is there the right leadership behind your company?
Is the market at the right temperature for your product?
Does your company have a system for training and duplicating to secure your success?

Answer these questions with a big yes, and I think you’ve found the right company.

10 Steps To Success In Network Marketing

When I left Ford Motor Company and decided to start my own business, the first place that I looked was the network marketing industry. I had put in thirty five successful years at Ford, and now I wanted to put in successful years at my own business.

I had dabbled in network marketing many years ago and found it to be very interesting, but I have learned a great deal since then and I wanted to do this the right way and give me the greatest opportunity for success that I could.

I am going to give you the ten steps to success in network marketing, that I learned the hard way and by implementing these into your business, you can bypass some of my mistakes.

1. Commit and Follow Through

Your decision to start, build and grow your business is a very serious one. Consider the commitment you are making. Treat it as a business and it will pay you like a business. Treat it as a hobby and it will pay you like a hobby.

2. Look For The Right Company

Find a company that has the right product for the right market. Products that are high in demand and have solid value. A strong compensation plan with solid and supportive leadership that will assist and train you with a long term vision of growth.

3. Duplication

Many people forget the first word in network marketing. Building a network of like minded people. Leveraging your products through your network is your business. Make sure your company has a system of duplication that you can plug your people into.

4. Surround Yourself With Success

Become a part of the company community. Success never travels alone. Hook into those people who are making it and become a sponge. Soak up what they are giving out. Listen and learn and watch what happens.

5. Keep Communication Lines Open

Stay in touch with the person who brought you in and keep in touch with those you bring in. Help them get started on the right foot. Building a solid infrastructure is going to be a huge key to your success.

6. Accountability

Find a mentor or somebody that you will be held accountable too. Someone who is successful and that you can connect with.

7. Have Patience

So many people will jump into a network marketing business because a friend told them about it and they don’t give it any thought at all. Studies show that after 63 days they will quit. This is your business. No one builds a successful business in 63 days. Give yourself a window of between 2-5 years.

8. Chart Your Success

Set some goals and map out a plan to reach those goals. Have a balance of internet marketing and offline marketing. Try different strategies and watch which ones are working for you and which ones that aren’t.

9. Make Good Business Decisions

If you’re in the network marketing industry, the bottom line is making money online. Turning traffic into online sales. It’s what every network marketer wants and builds the business for. How do you get more Internet sales from the traffic your currently getting to your website? Sales strategy.

This is the sticky part, because there are a lot of little things that can throw you off the right track. There are little things that are right under your nose and you might not see it, but it can sure keep you from getting those conversions.

Lets take a look at ten steps you can take today that could turn your ship in a completely different direction.

Does your service or product answer a problem or a need that people have? If your product has no appeal to a prospect, your done before to start. Make sure your in a business that has something people want.
DON”T PITCH YOUR BUSINESS! Don’t sound like every other fish in the ocean. Be friendly, personable, human, and informal. Don’t go and get your tux out of the cleaners. You’ll chase people away from you.
Identify with your prospect. Make them feel that you are just like them or were in the same place they were. Use a story to show how you solved this dilemma.
Give them some information that will build their trust in you. That can be achieved by sending them through a funnel of messages on an auto responder instead of a sales page.
Make sure you have “a call to action”. You have to clearly direct people into what to do next.
Make sure you spell everything out. Don’t assume anything. Describe your product or service in detail. Show pictures, video, whatever you need to do to make sure your prospect understands clearly.
Put a photo or a video on the sales page. People connect and buy from people, not a company. If they can see you they are more likely to trust you.
Have you moved the features of your product into a benefit for your customer? Remember, features are what your product or service does. Benefits are what your prospect gets out of it.
Are you targeting the right prospects or niche for your product? The people who not only want what you have, but are both able and willing to buy.
Make sure you have a compelling headline. Does it stop you and make you want to find out more? If read all by themselves, your headline and sub-headlines, should tell a story.

Network Marketing – What It Is and What It Isn’t

In my everyday conversations with people, I get a lot of people who ask me what I do. When I say that I am in network marketing, most of them will sneer and look at me with that same look, ” that’s one of those pyramid schemes”. Network marketing carries the wrong illusion of a pyramid scheme. When I ask them back, ” what is a pyramid scheme?” They cannot answer. I am going to tell you the truth about network marketing – what it is and what it isn’t.

What It Is

Network marketing is not a pyramid scheme. Network marketing is a business that leverages the efforts of many distributors or representatives of a company to produce sales of a product or service that this company represents. These efforts produce a residual income for both the company and the distributors of that company. It’s that simple.

I worked for Ford Motor Company for thirty five years. Through the combined effort of thousands of employees, all around the world, sales and the distribution of Ford Motor Company vehicles, produced a residual income for both Ford Motor Company and its employees. You could say that Ford Motor Company is a form of network marketing. This can be said of thousand of other companies all around the globe. You probably are or have been employed by one of them.

What most people don’t realize is that network marketing is the key that drives the entire worlds economy. In fact 95% of the worlds population work in some type of network marking and don’t even know it. If it is run as I described in the paragraph above, it is probably some sort of network marketing business.

What It Isn’t

I am approached, by network marketing representatives, every day about their particular company and the product or service that it represents. There are about 4800 network marketing companies out there, so there are a lot of fish in the ocean to choose from. When someone comes to me about a business opportunity that only has to do with the passing and exchanging of money from one person hands to the next persons hands, a big red flag goes up. When there is no mention of a product or service, and they can get cleaver in hiding this, be very careful.

There was a company that was out, and may still be out, that cost one hundred dollars to get in. With this they put your name on a grid. As you got people to join, your name moved up the grid. When you got to the top of the grid, you received a check for a certain amount of money, and your name went to the next grid. When you got to the top of that grid you received another check. With each grid, the check amount increased. The only way you moved up the grid was by how many people you brought in. This is a pyramid scheme. No product involved, and the only way you moved up was getting more people in, not selling anything.

Some people were making money, but it is illegal. This is against the law, and you want to be very careful. They can be very cleaver on how they present their opportunity. If you are seriously looking for a network marketing business, talk to someone that you know and understands the business. If you don’t know anybody, you can take a look at my website. I have plenty of information on the network marketing industry, or attend one of my training’s. I would be happy to assist you in what exactly network marketing is all about.

The network marketing industry has been around for over a hundred years. It produces 120 billion dollars a year of revenue. The oldest network marketing company is Avon, not Amway. Most people don’t know that. It has providing more millionaires than any other industry. For a small investment you can start your very own business. Work from home and build a nice residual income for you and your family. Work par-time or full-time. Work your business around your schedule. It is a strong and viable industry to get into. Do your homework.
