I’m in a Network Marketing Business and want more Leads, How do I find them ?

www.networkmarketinghowto.info Network Marketing – How to succeed is a question that millions of distributors in MLM are asking. That’s because the vast majority aren’t earning any money! If you want to learn to be successful in network marketing then you will probably have to change…

My Internet Business is being equated as the most highly sought launch for a home internet business opportunity in the past decade and is being equated to the launch of Microsoft. Is it all BS or is there Truth to their Bold statements?

Passport to Wealth is doing it again and doing it in just a little over 12 months since it launched in February of 2007. What is he doing again? Building one of the most highly sought online Home Business Launches since itself was created a little over a 12 Months ago.

My Internet Business is allowing regular individuals to create a phenomenal income working from the comfort of their homes, with no previous internet business experience and they are doing it again with their latest creation called ‘My Internet Business’ which launched on April 1st 2008.

This launch is important because those who joined Passport to Wealth early in February of 2007, reaped huge income rewards due to its unique earning structure and the phenomenal membership sign-ups that occurred.

“My Internet Business” founder Darren Gaudry has done something very creative with this new Home Based Business and that is; he has given all current Passport To Wealth owners a Free Position within ‘My Internet Business’ who either become new paid members or who have already purchased a Passport To Wealth membership. Unfortunately for those who did not take advantage of this opportunity, the deadline for getting this free position was March 5th 2008, and now new members will have to pay their way into both “Passport To Wealth” and “My Internet Business” if they want to take advantage of both.

‘My Internet Business product line is going to be even more lucrative than P2W’s due to the fact that all the products are new, and can only be purchased through ‘My Internet Business’, putting its members in a exclusive position to earn from their highly in demand vacation packages, products and software lines.

Darren Gaudry has equated the launch of ‘My Internet Business’ to that of Google and Microsoft and reiterates that for those who bought into these businesses before they went public are prospering today and that ‘My Internet Business’ will literally do the same thing for its members. Due to the high success of Passport To Wealth which has paid out over 75 Million to its owners since it launched in February of last year, it’s very likely that Darren Gaudry’s statements are an accurate assessment.

The P2W and “My Internet Business Gold Team” is one of the most successful of the My Internet Business Teams, primarily due to their superior Mentoring and Marketing strategies, which have provided its members easy to follow, step by step instructions on how to succeed with this business. They truly care about their members success.

Darren Gaudry has also provided projections that the explosive growth of “My Internet Business” that is being forecast for the next year is, that it will out perform Passport To Wealth’s success by 2x to 4x. Based off of the fact that the majority of this businesses products will be exclusive to My Internet Business, and that consumers won’t be able to purchase their products anywhere else, I predict that Darren’s projections are a very good estimate of what its success will most likely reveal. Interestingly enough, right now My Internet Business is Blowing away the estimates and hundreds are flooding into this business on a daily basis, making the current owners very rich!

It is going to be very exciting to watch this business grow over the next year and those who are already members will be at the ground floor of what could be the most exciting growth of any home internet business opportunities to date.

Time will certainly tell, and in the meantime, I will be keeping my hand on the pulse of this business and reporting my findings over the next few months as new information is presented about this opportunity. My Internet Business is doing very well and if you are looking to start your own internet home business, then contact me below and I’ll be glad to answer any questions you might have about this exciting and profitable business.

Network marketing is one of the methods of marketing products and services. The organization marketing the products creates a network of individual entrepreneurs who assist the organization in securing orders for the product. The individual marketers in the network get commission for business conducted through their efforts. The enterprising network marketers grow their own marketing network and, depending upon the compensation scheme of the organization, the network marketers also get paid for the efforts of their team mates.

Though network marketing is an old concept it has got a real boost by the development of internet. Spreading information is one of the key elements of network marketing and internet provides just the medium to spread the message at staggering speed. For millions of individuals involved in network marketing it signifies a complete business. Most of them are looking for additional source of income. They are lured by the ease with which they can join network marketing and by the expectation of making some quick money.

But what happens? Most of the people are not able to earn from network marketing. Many of them get disgusted and either leave or become inactive. According to one study there is better chance of making profit in games of chance such as gambling than in network marketing by an average person. A person who is not serious about his network marketing business would stand a better chance to earn some profit in a gambling den than in the network marketing. The same study concludes that the top few involved in network marketing earn tremendous amount of wealth at the cost of thousands of network marketers who do not earn any profits.

While I do not question the authenticity of this study, I do feel that this is a wrong way of interpreting facts. When we send our children to school we do not say that the owners of the school are earning at the cost of the students. Even those who realize this fact still send their children to school.

Network marketing provides opportunity not only for earning but also for learning. Most of the people are drawn towards network marketing by unreasonable expectations. They are led to believe that they can earn without much efforts on their part. Those who try to learn go much further than those who don’t. The network marketer has to go through the learning process to find out how he or she can succeed in earning money.

Success is something which cannot be imposed. It has to be earned. Being successful is a habit and like every other habit it can be cultivated. Success is not a single event – it is a winning mindset. Network marketing is one of the best places where you can find the opportunity to develop a winning mindset. But only those who are willing to learn can hope to benefit from this opportunity.

All the good organizations involved in network marketing provide plenty of support to its sales force. They provide learning opportunity, promotional material, and even mentoring. It is up to the individual network marketers to learn and develop himself or herself. It is not correct to compare network marketing with a game of chance. The internet marketers who are the players in this game have a clear choice – those who learn will succeed.

One of the key elements of network marketing is the leverage. All successful network marketers use this technique to increase their effectiveness several folds. Leveraging means getting others to work for you. Now, why will others work for you. They will work only if they stand to gain for their efforts. Therefore it is in the interest of the team leader to see that his team members also learn to earn. Network marketing is really a team effort.

Network marketing provides tremendous opportunity for learning, earning and making new friends. For those who take initiative, success is just round the corner.

There are many reasons why people fail in network marketing.

However, instead of looking into each of these causes, the purpose of this article is to explain what people MUST know when they start their network marketing business so that they will have a better chance to succeed.

This is what you must know in order to succeed in your network marketing business:

1) What is your “job” scope?

2) What is expected of you in your “job”?

3) What you should expect in your “job”?

Network marketing is a business and not a job! In fact, in the network marketing or MLM circle, the acronym J.O.B. stands for:

- Just Obey Boss (Work on a job and take orders from the boss.)

- Just Over Broke (Work on a job, get paid, and after you pay all your bills, you’ll be just over broke.)

- Journey Of the Broke (Work on a job and you’ll likely end up broke after working their whole life!)

- Jump Out of Bed (Hit the alarm clock and jump out of bed each morning to get yourself ready for another day’s work.)

So, what am I talking about?

WHAT IS YOUR “JOB” SCOPE?

Say, you check out a job on a classified ad. You’ll be looking at the job title and then the job description. Some ads are so small that you really wonder what’s involved. So, you write that perfect job application letter, update your resume and secure your interview. And besides the salary that you’d most interested in, you’d be finding out the duties and responsibilities of the job.

Bottom line: You know the scope of your job when you get one.

Now, when you start out in your network marketing business, do you know your “job” scope?

As a network marketer, this is your “job” scope:

- Understand your product and offerings

> Learn about the products especially those that you want to focus on (if your company offers a wide range)

> Find out the unique selling proposition of your products. In other words, what are the benefits of your products?

> Be a product of your products so as to know their pros and cons and you’ll be able to share from first-hand experience.

- Understand the company, its mission and vision

> Find out when and how was the company started

> Find out who owns it and who’s who in the management team

> Find out where are the regional offices (if any) and visit some of them if possible

> Know the company’s mission and its vision

- Understand the compensation plan

> Study the compensation plan and know how to explain to others clearly

> Know the merits of your company’s compensation plan and how it compare with other compensation plans.

- Understand the network marketing industry

> Find out about the network marketing industry and how it started

> Study the difference between legitimate network marketing and illegal pyramids

- Build your network through duplication

> Realize that network marketing is not sales but a “people” business

> Build your network through your circle of influence and relationship, friendship, partnership and leadership

> Provide training and support to duplicate your downline business partners

> Multiply your efforts so as to grow your business exponentially through the power of LEVERAGE

WHAT IS EXPECTED OF YOU IN YOUR “JOB”?

Once you got that job and started working, you are expected to learn and pick up your skills from your seniors and your peers and even from your subordinates.

It is in fact not much different in network marketing. And these are the things that are expected of you:

- To get into a “business” mind set

> Realize that since this is a business, you must take responsibility as a business owner

> As you are your own boss, you owe it to no one except yourself whether you succeed or fail

> A business takes time to grow, so be patient with yourself

> Network marketing is a “get rich sure” and not a “get rich quick” business

- To practice the “success” mind set

> Set your goals and plan your strategy, then take action

> When you do not get the results you want, don’t give up easily but adjust your strategy and take action again

> Keep adjusting your strategy as necessary to achieve the results you want

> In this business, you cannot fail if you practice the “success” mind set

- To have the right attitudes

> In network marketing, you can only succeed if you help others succeed

> Use less of “I, me, myself” and think about how you can add value to your prospects and partners

> Be prepared to walk the extra mile and get busy once your network starts to grow

> How fast your network grows depends on you as you are the leader of your own network

> Whatever you DO, not whatever you say, is duplicated by your network

- To learn the “business” skills

> It’s not money that makes you rich, it’s business skills

> Learn the basic business skills that you need to make this business work

> These are essentially inter-personal and communication skills encompassing prospecting, inviting, presenting, closing, following up, training and support

- To share the business with others

> If you had started a traditional business with $100,000, would you open your door to do business everyday? Yes, of course.

> Network marketing is a word of mouth business. Thus, to do business means you simply tell others about your products or services.

> When you share your business everyday, you are in fact opening your door to do business everyday.

> Sharing your business is just making a referral. Do not confuse it with selling. A good example is to refer a friend to a restaurant because you thought the food was great. However, you most likely won’t know how they cook or what ingredients the chefs use. You just loved the taste of the food or perhaps the service there.

WHAT YOU SHOULD EXPECT IN YOUR “JOB”?

Once you got that job and started working, you are expected to learn and pick up your skills as soon as possible but not instantly. (Unless of course you already have relevant experience in a previous similar job.) So, you actually go through a probation period of 3, 6, 12 or even 24 months. And then, initially, there’s so much to learn and so exciting. However, this wears out as time goes by…

It is in fact not much different in network marketing. And these are the things that you should expect:

- There is a learning curve

> No matter how simple your product or compensation plan seems, there is simply a learning curve

> If you are starting network marketing from scratch, you need time to learn and develop the “business” and “success” mind sets as well as your “business” skills.

- Your initial excitement will not last long

> Your initial excitement when you join a network marketing company can only last for 1 to 2 months

> So, you need to maintain your enthusiasm by building your belief and commitment by attending meetings, training, reading or listening to audio, etc

- Replenishment is necessary

> People come and people will go whether in jobs or in network marketing

> As this is inevitable, you need to constantly replenish your network by sponsoring new people till you reach a critical mass whereby the growth in your network exceeds the attrition rate. I have written an article, “How To Create A Surefire Stream Of Prospects For Your Network Marketing Business” which you can download from http://www.rogerloh.com/mlmtips

- There will always be rejection

> No one has a 100% record in sponsoring no matter how good they are.

> Realize that rejection is part of the “job” and that they are rejecting the opportunity, not you

> Dismiss the rejection by chanting, “Some will, some won’t, so what, someone else is waiting”

> There are many reasons why people reject your business opportunity. It could be due to money, time, family or personal problems, fear of rejection, fear of failure, etc.

> There is a ratio like 1 in 10 will join you after you share your business with them. So, the key is to share with as many people as possible. And the good news is that your ratio will increase.

To recap, this is what you must know in order to succeed in your network marketing business:

1) What is your “job” scope?

2) What is expected of you in your “job”?

3) What you should expect in your “job”?

In summary, your job is to share your business through word of mouth with your family and friends. So, learn to share as much as you can and you will get better each time.

However, the decision to join you or not lies with them, not you

Getting visitors to come to your Internet site is the crux of the success of your home business online marketing promotion. You can build the greatest home business Internet site but if its marketing and promotion doesn’t bring users to the site it’s useless. Once those visitors are coming to your site your tracking software can let you know which pages they view and for how long and what brings them to the site and what page they are on when they exit the site. All this information helps you improve your site and the online sales process for your home business Internet marketing and promotion.

Your online marketing and promotion plan for your Internet home business should include the following goals:

* To get instant low cost traffic to your site so that these users can let you know if your Web sales copy works, if the order form is right, if the navigation is easy and if the opt-in e-mail offer is productive.

* To test whether the sales process you have set up online does the optimal job of converting your home Internet business Web traffic into the greatest number of sales.

* To bring the greatest number of consumers to your Web site in the least amount of time.

* And to assure that putting your Web traffic marketing and promotion campaign on autopilot successfully grows your Internet home business.

When it comes to testing your Internet site prior to home business online marketing promotion a lot of entrepreneurs don’t know how to test and what to test. The basics that you need to look at are the ordering process, the sales copy, the opt-in e-mail offer and the navigation of the site. The ordering process must be designed with the assumption that the consumer who buys from you has never done so online before. Make it so easy to navigate that the Web novice won’t give up in frustration.

When looking at the sales copy on your site you want to pay close attention to how captivating your headlines are, how clear and influential the benefits are spelled out, that the guarantee is prominent and clear and that there is a strong call to action.

The opt-in offer must be prominent and just about mouth-watering. The point of testing this is to make sure that you’re getting the contact information from that consumer. You know can lure them to your site time and time again until they say otherwise.

The most important thing to look at when testing your site’s navigation is to make sure that someone who wants to buy your product or service online can do it in two easy clicks. More than that and you start to lose the interest of this instant-gratification audience – especially if your market is under 35 years of age.
