Let me pose a question?
Would you give me $1 if you knew that you would get $4 back in return?
If you have any type of common sense, you would be stupid not to say yes. But yet most network marketers, when faced with this situation in real life almost all the time do the opposite�"Let me tell you what I'm talking about.
It amazes me how average people join MLM companies for as small as $10 a month, to as much as $10,000 for some, but when suggest to put aside some money to actually advertise their opportunities, they run for the hills, what i can't understand, are that these same people are the ones who want to scream that MLM does not work or drag guru's names through the soil because they failed to do what was necessary to expand their opportunity.
And what’s completely mad are that a short time after, these guys join another MLM company and repeat the process they did before… And the cycle continues.
They say, try as they might, they just can’t find the key of success online.
You wanna know how to succeed in online businesses? Do you really actually want to know how to become a success?
Well here is the answer– find a good automated system, and advertise it to the correct marketing sources. You keep a record of marketing, toss what doesn’t, and keep what works. It’s that straight forward.
But you can’t succeed without following the automated programme. Without all the components, you will fail. So, once, again, to succeed in online marketing you will need an automated system that converts sign-ups and enables you to communicate with your downline on autopilot and you need to ADVERTISE, ADVERTISE, ADVERTISE!!
Now why do I stress advertising all the time?
You have probably heard time and time again, that the people are the backbone of your MLM opportunity. The more people you speak to, the better your chances of success. This is true for all business. MLM is not special.
Now the great thing about being online) is that it can put you in front of as many people as you can handle, and it can do a lot more. It can put you in front of contacts who really want to become part of your company. How about that for an advantage?
So where do you start?
Well, for any opportunity you are going to have to spend some time and/or money. If you don’t have a lot of cash, then you will have to spend more time getting the results you desire. If you have cash, you can get the results in a shorter time because you can leverage your time by paying someone to do your work for you. Online MLM is not special.
So, in order for you to succeed in online MLM marketing you have to either…
1. Use the free system: Spend 20-60 hours per week with SEO, blogging, Web 2.0, forum marketing, and article marketing to get people to visit your capture page.
2. Use the paid method: Pay for advertising and spend 1-4 hours per week tracking your results and twiquing your campaign.
3. Spend about 10-15 hours per week doing some of both.
Now, I’m more in the 3rd option and if you want to be a leader you should be too, but if I had 1 to pick for excellent responses in the quickest amount of time, I would definitely choose use the paid system. I admire paid advertising because it’s like working on autopilot. I don't have to do anything much to get it, and it gives me a opportunity to extensively test my Ad copy before I spend a long time on SEO out it won’t work.
Now, I’m not speaking to those of you who are in fact working hard with no effort, and you don't know where to go next because there is no one who can help you. For those guys, I hope this article will be able to arm you with what you need. I am talking to those who just join because they are seeking for the next great thing�"even though they may have everything they need to succeed in MLM marketing.
So if you’re in a exceptional opportunity with a great automated system, but you’re not doing much to promote your opportunity, here’s my advice. Stop making excuses and start advertising. If you can converse with your upline, ask them what they did to succeed and do it. You will be alarmed at the results you can achieve.
