The key to being highly successful in Multi Level Marketing is to have a highly duplicable marketing system that anyone can put into action with very little guess work involved. This is exactly what we teach to others.
Combined, my business partner and I have over 40 years experience in the home based business industry. There isn't much we haven't seen. Often we see people who could have been very successful if they would have followed a proven system.
We've seen it time and time again; a new distributor will join us after we told them all about our proven methods of promotion then turn right around and start reinventing the wheel. They think they have a better way to market, but 9 out 10 end of falling on their face.
New distributors are taught to approach people on their list and convince them to come to company meetings or listen in on a conference call. This couldn't be any more wrong! Using this method is a sure fire recipe for failure! Success doesn't happen this way.
If people only knew that the only real way to make money in an MLM is to follow a proven system, they would have far less failure and lots more success. Too many people try reinventing the wheel and find failure around every corner.
Another factor we deal with is that people seem to become emotionally attached to a company like it was a family member. These people seem to get into the battle of products and spend far too much time explaining why theirs is best.
What highly recommend using a good generic based postcard marketing system for many reasons. First of all, the price for printing and postage is the obvious answer. Envelopes have to entice prospects enough to open them. This is not the case when using postcards.
We know that people are hungry for money, but we also know that most people are just too lazy to do what really needs to be done. If you can tap into an almost passive way to market your business then you have a winner and people will find and join you.
People don't like to sell, they don't like to handle objections or deal with rejection. This is a deep seated fear many human beings tend to possess. So just what kind of passive marketing system do we suggest? Well, we believe a good passive postcard marketing system is best.
They rehash the same old garbage of hey talk to everyone you know, get on our Saturday training callsor "buy our t-shirts, hats, and coffee mugs. Folks, this is not what you should doing. This method will only make the company richer, not you.
Here's a scenario on how the postcard marketing system can work. First, you mail out the postcards then your prospect responds to the card and asks for more information. Then someone other than yourself does the selling for you while you relax and enjoy your day.
The last step is the best part- This is where you see that your prospect signed up under you and all you did was mail your postcards. This is what true passive residual income looks like and it happens everyday for people who don't reinvent the wheel.
