Network Marketing has been around for a while. Most of us know someone who has a friend or relative who became involved in off-line network marketing. We listened to their sales pitch with our mind already set on how we were going to say no and the best way to get out of the meeting as quickly and painlessly as possible.
Through out the sales pitch we thought to ourselves, what would drive someone to put this much effort into selling these products? Why would they spend all this time promoting their product to their friends and relatives? Would we ever be able to meet them again and look them in the face wondering if they were going to start into their sales pitch?
All in all, this kind of network marketing seemed rather painful to someone from the outside. Not only was it time consuming, but you needed to be a person with the ability to sell. Most people involved this way did not start out as professional sales people, but they knew they would need to learn these skills in order to succeed.
What our friends understood about network marketing is that the first customers are the hardest. Once these customers started recruiting their own customers things started getting easier. Over time, their income would grow faster. They were sold on the product they were selling and definitely the concept of network marketing. They were persistent and determined not to quit!
I could not help but think – could they really be on to something? It seemed impossible, but what if it worked? Our friends did eventually become successful. But I believe it was only because they were determined to make it work. Giving up was not an option for them.
Times have changed and off-line network marketing has turned into on-line network marketing. The concept remains the same:
- Sell someone else's products and make a commission on each product.
- Sell the opportunity to others so they do the same, while making a commission on their sales as well.
The second sale is what makes network marketing most rewarding and leads to “RESIDUAL INCOME”. This kind of income keeps coming without you yourself having to do the work.
Today, online network marketing has greatly simplified selling other companies' products. Not only do they generally do the selling for you, but THE WORLD IS NOW YOUR PROSPECT!
To become a network marketer all you need is a computer, internet connection and a good product with opportunity that can be sold. POINT AND CLICK IS THE METHOD OF SALES TODAY! Good companies offering affiliate programs for network marketing also provide many ways to learn the ropes and how to sell their products. Anyone can learn how to do it!
If online marketing is so easy, why isn't everyone doing it? It takes time and persistence. This is the hardest part. Our friends understood this and they were determined to succeed and persevere.
Is online network marketing easy? Yes. Does online network marketing take time and effort? Absolutely. Persistence and determination are the key skills needed for today's environment. The actual work is easy.

If you've tried promoting your network marketing or MLM business over the internet, at some point you have probably asked yourself, "Where's the network marketing money?" Can you really make money from your network marketing business on the internet? Definitely. There are many people who are successfully marketing their business opportunity on the web -- we know because we've done it for over six years on the internet and for many years more than that through traditional methods. So how do you go from a person who is looking to earn money on the internet to someone who has made money on the internet?
It doesn't take a genius to figure out that the first you thing you need to be successful on the internet is an abundance of traffic and qualified leads. It is all well and fine to have a great looking website out there on the web, but if you aren't driving plenty of traffic to that website then no one is going to see it. It's like that proverbial tree falling in the forest - if no one is there to hear the tree falling, does it even matter? The same thing is true for your website. If no one sees your website, then you won't have any traffic, you won't get any leads to work with, and you will not earn any network marketing money from your website. It's just simple math. This kind of simple math tells us that you will be much happier and much more likely to earn money on the internet if you have lead and traffic abundance rather than lead poverty, which, sadly, most people have to live with.
So how do you generate abundant traffic and leads from your website? We have three words for you: multiple traffic streams. Many people who are first learning how to promote their network marketing opportunities on the internet get focused in on a particular type of marketing such as article marketing, pay-per-click, newsletter marketing, or video marketing. It's all well and good to become an expert in one of these forms of marketing (in fact you should become an expert at any type of marketing you do on the internet) but make sure that you don't develop tunnel vision. Any single form of internet marketing is great to get you started but if you really want someone to show you the network marketing money via the internet you are going to have to pursue multiple streams of traffic. Start with one, say newsletter marketing, and get really good at it. Look at successful sites that do newsletter marketing and figure out what they are doing right. Then practice and experiment until your newsletters are generating a steady (even if small, to begin with) stream of traffic and leads for you. Once you've mastered that approach, learn the next one, all the while keeping up your original traffic stream.
