Are You an Alpha, Pre-Alpha Or Beta Personality? Your MLM-Network Marketing Business Depends on It

Now this is some good stuff. One of the best things that you can do if you are in or about to participate in a Multi Level or lead driven business, is to analyze why some people seem to sponsor people effortlessly, while the majority struggle.

Prior to becoming a fulltime online network marketer and mentor, I would sit in meetings watching my successful up-line and do my best to duplicate everything they did; I always knew there was something different about them; it was something I could feel, but never put my finger on.

Well I finally came across an alternative type Network Marketing leader, his name is Mike Dillard. I have to tell you, the sponsoring/lead building portion of my business has been completely transformed with this new knowledge.

Not Knowing These Personality Traits Can Kill Your MLM Business:

How? First let's define an Alpha, Pre-Alpha, and a Beta personality:

Alpha: An alpha is that guy or girl that is automatically one of the leaders in every situation. People flock to them on a sub-conscious level. They exude value and confidence at all times.

Pre-Alpha: A pre-alpha is someone aware of all the tools and knowledge to become a alpha. They are aware that they are on the way to a dominate leadership role; they may be starting to conduct their own meetings and asking for help only for absolutely necessary.

Beta: They typically have very little confidence or business value to offer (at least on the surface). This group is unsure in most situations. They typically live reactionary lives, where others dictate how it is so to speak. Complaining is always in season for these folks.

The good news is that wherever you are you can change it! I consider myself an alpha on my way to super-alpha! Even before I learned of this new way of conducting a successful MLM/Network marketing business, I had pretty good success with leadership and sponsoring.

Don't make the mistake of thinking that you can't do it. There is no one more deserving of a thriving MLM business than you. I mean that. You see, even though some people have alpha or automatic leadership karma, they revel in the fact that others don't have it!

Well, I am here to tell that even if you don't have it, you can get it, you deserve it, and you should not let any one deprive you of the benefits of leading. Think of all the people you can help. Ok off the soap box I go. Get further information and I will see down the road.

Listen, people will do Muliti Level Marketing if you can show them a way to succeed with the sponsoring/recruiting aspect of the business. Stop the madness! Get more information at the link below and build a great business. Good Luck.

MLMs? This is the Only Way I Would Do MLMs Again!

I am going to start with a short story that may sound familiar to you if you have any experience with MLMs or Multi Level Marketing companies. I have had a few MLM businesses including a Amway/Quickstar business, webtv and a couple more; and I was actually pretty good at all them. I am an consistent truth worthy guy so I am told and so I was able to sponsor quite a few people in a short period of time in all of these businesses.

However, on every occasion as I began to get through my list of prospects things would slow down a little and I would be left struggling to motivate my group and continue to sponsor more people for both me and them. Sounds like a lot of work right? It is!

In every case I would be left with a few very nice people in my MLM business and plenty of motivational stories about the guy making the real money at the top of the MLM business. (my upline) Well I started to notice a pattern after a while, I really didn't have a business, I was just in my up-lines group and the system was designed to keep me hungry for the dream by attending weekly meetings full of success stories. (see update below)

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against those who got in early and did the work to have an awesome residual income lifestyle. I did realize one thing however, the number one thing you have to do to be successful in MLMs is to sponsor/help as many people as you can over a fairly short amount of time. How many, 20, 30, 100 it really doesn't matter, the more the better.

The question is do you have the ability or vehicle to do this? If you don't, read the above story again and get ready to live it in most cases. Unless you are a person with considerable influence where people are hanging on your every word and will follow you into whatever you suggest; you probably are going to struggle with getting enough people. For instance, I know a guy that was pretty successful in one MLM and took his whole group and dropped them into a new program at the ground level, all at once. He is a millionaire now.

Now, if you notice, I have not said MLMs are all bad. There are some very solid companies out there that are helping large numbers of people live there dreams. But there has to be a better way to sponsor the large number of people over a few months time that will springboard your business.

The ideal business in my mind would look something like this. The company's financials would be top notch to insure the checks keep coming.

The sign-up would be free. The company would use or allow me to use every online marketing tool I could find. (legal of course) With all the online networking going on sites like Squidoo, MySpace, blogger, email, YouTube, and so on, it seems to me that all you would need to do is briefly explain that if you get in (for free) and spread the word to all that you can, everyone that gets in after you will serve to fatten your monthly check! (see update below)

In today's economy not knowing about something like this would have to be the only reason for not getting in. The company would have to have a product that everybody needs and can be benefit from. (at a affordable price) And preferably the product would be pretty new offering ground level entry to the business.

Even if you are in another business with a large contact/email list or whatever kind of network list, you could use the above example and inform and then drop your list into the business. Wow!

I think the term is to go viral with it! Promote it online until it is literally beyond anything you could imagine. That is the way a modern day MLM business should work! No meetings (except maybe a periodic webinar) No phone calls! Viral, viral, viral! This is the only way I would do MLM again!

Wow man, (UPDATE) I wrote this article sometime ago about my previous experience and detailed the conditions under which I would go for MLM/Network Marketing again. I have found the answer to all of the above recently.

I was way off considering the company too much. I was dead on when I spoke of the out dated sponsoring techniques. The above text of this article are proof of the before and after of knowing and not knowing the latest MLM/Network marketing techniques. Don't wait any longer get the right info and get going! Wow! this article is a good example of the saying "be careful what you ask for, you might get it"

Listen, people will do Multi Level Marketing if you can show them a way to succeed with the sponsoring/recruiting aspect of the business. Stop the madness! Get more information at the link below and build a great business. Good Luck.

4 Benefits of Using Self-Liquidating Offers in Your MLM-Network Marketing Business

In recent months the use of SLO's in network marking is being revealed as one of the top tools used by some of the biggest online MLM/Network marketers around. Many of us have been funneled through an online marketing/sales site that employs the use of SLO's without even knowing it.

What Is A SLO?

An SLO or Self-Liquidating-Offer is a low cost high-volume retail product sold as a how to product in most cases, that will fund the marketers advertising and provide them with a endless number of leads for future business offers.

Here are 4 of the many benefits of using a SLO to market your business:

Depending on the content of your SLO, you can position yourself as an expert in your field. You can provide value at a very low cost, and not be viewed as a peddler of just another MLM opportunity.

(Read carefully here) You are able to get your fragile new reps into almost immediate positive cash flow with your low-priced fast selling SLO. This will create momentum for them and drastically reduce business failures.

Sponsoring an existing customer is much easier than sponsoring a stranger. You will have taken the time to build trust and show them that you provide real value in everything you do; therefore they will be more open to your main opportunity.

Last but certainly not least; your fast selling SLO increases your cash flow right away! Taking your advertising cost down to $0 and you will in all probability make a good profit from just the sale of your SLO. This is a big deal considering the fact the over 95% of your leads will NEVER join your main MLM/Network Marketing business.

Let The Old School Go; Build Your MLM/Network Marketing Business The New Way:

I hope this article peaks your interest and propels you into action. I will never go back to the hard work of old school network marketing. In my first few weeks of using the latest techniques, I was able to accomplish more in the way of leads and sponsoring than I had in years of the old way.

Listen, people will do Muliti Level Marketing if you can show them a way to succeed with the sponsoring/recruiting aspect of the business. Stop the madness! Get more information at the link below and build a great business. Good Luck.

How I Helped to Create 20 MLM-Network Marketing Failures

Boy, it seems like a long time ago my first years in the MLM/Network marketing. I was raised to get a high-school education and get a good job. Only one of my siblings had gone to college in my family. During this time the late eighties, a high school graduate could still get a so called good job. Although looking back on it this time period was the beginning of the end of good paying long-term employment for a high-school graduate.

What Made Me Want More

I personally knew one guy who took full advantage of the American way. He was a sports agent and my brother in law. I truly didn't know anybody else doing anything but working a pretty regular job. This brother in law was an optimistic energetic sort, who seemed to want to pull others along in his realization of the American dream.

He started an Amway distributorship, and I was one of his first distributors. His business took off really fast locally because of his popularity. You see, he was an athletic star in high school and college in the area; that with his success as a sports agent, open personality, and hard work, made his business take off at a record pace.

My First MLM/Network Marketing Experience

When I think back on it, I was so excited and ready to change my circumstances. I took delivery of my kit and I was on my way. I was taught all the basic techniques. Make a list of everyone I knew, make X number of cold phone calls every day, talk to your friends and family first, be sure to attend weekly meeting bringing any guest you can.

I was given scripts on what to say to strangers in public. I was so ready to win that it didn't really matter what they, I was going to do it. My excitement paid off pretty fast. I sponsored approximately 20 new distributors was recognized by my up-line and even made some money.

How I Created 20 MLM/Network Marketing Doubters

All was well on my front line as it is called. But when I started to try to duplicate my efforts I found out that the above techniques were very difficult for my people. My down-line was full of very nice people, but like most new MLMers they were new to the excess rejection inherent in sponsoring with these techniques, and over time they began to fall off; joining the ranks of the 95% that fail at MLM.

My MLM/Network Marketing Happy Ending

I continued on working in the airline industry while continuing my MLM business efforts part time. I made part-time money. I tried a couple of different opportunities also; always making some income without really breaking through.

Throughout all this time I never forgot how difficult it was for my business partners to build thriving MLM businesses; this frustrated me to no end because I am very much aware of the financial and lifestyle benefits that MLM holds. As the internet became more and more popular, I would wonder how it could be used to solve the MLM sponsoring problem.

Then one day I was on the net and came across a video that claimed to understand every aspect of this problem. The guy on the video was a regular guy that pretty much told the short version of the story in this article. I put my information in, clicked on the link, got the free training promised, and I was amazed.

If you have been or are in MLM/Network marketing can you imagine not chasing people anymore! Having 50-100 leads come your way via the web after showing interest in business. Making money along the way, prior to sponsoring anyone; money that will pay for all of your sponsoring/recruiting efforts, and position you has a leader and legitimate business owner.

Just Want To Spread The Word

Ok this article is getting too long, but I just want to tell everyone out there that thinks they can not have a MLM business because of the sponsoring/recruiting requirement that if you get with the right people using modern day internet marketing techniques you can do it.

I have done it both ways. This way, I think my original 20 could have a thriving MLM business. I hope they find this article and give it a try the new way. Oh yeah, I am full-time now!

Listen, people will do Muliti Level Marketing if you can show them a way to succeed with the sponsoring/recruiting aspect of the business. Stop the madness! Get more information at the link below and build a great business. Good Luck.

MLM-Network Marketing Success Vs Job Success

These days there are a lot of people questioning there participation in the American economic system. The Tried and true 40-40-40 plan has failed scores of very good hard working people. You know the drill, work 40 hours a day for 40 years to take a 40 percent pay-cut in retirement.

The two main problems with the above mentioned plan are that companies no longer want tenured employees and the fact the your retirement funds, if they are not lost in the stock market, are worth very little against inflation, therefore your lifestyle will have to decrease sharply.

Some of the younger people I know have accepted the fact that they will probably change jobs multiple times during their careers. This is about the best you can hope for on the job scene these days if you have at least a bachelor's degree in a high paying field.

On the job side you can expect to be paid a consistent amount of money every pay period, this fact pretty much clenches it for most people seeking security over wealth. In my opinion, it is a crap shoot. I hope my industry doesn't fold, I hope my boss likes me, I hope I have a pension plan at the end of all this.

MLM/Network Marketing is Now A Doable Option

In past years the MLM/Network marketing industry has done a terrible job of putting their independent business owner in the best possible position to succeed. Every one I know understands the power and financial benefits of a real MLM business with a strong compensation plan.

The Problem is In The Sponsoring/Prospecting Piece

With even the best MLM companies the failure rate is around 95% because getting your business started is low cost and easy; growing your business, which requires that you sponsor or bring others into your business, has been a total nightmare for most people, because they are being taught old tired marketing techniques like.

Making a list of all the people you know (you have no idea if any of them want a business)

Trying to sponsor your family and friends (what makes you think they want what you want)

Buying leads and making cold calls (this is expensive and most of the leads are old)

Printing and leaving flyer on cars (this is just crazy)

Trying to prospect on your free time in the mall or other social setting (you can never relax)

There Is A Better Way

MLM/Network marketing can generate the best kind of income possible; that is income earned without you trading hours for it. You do the work once and it pays for years down the line. I won't go on and on about the lifestyles of successful MLMer's compared to successful job holders just slow down and listen to me clearly.

I am a veteran MLM business owner. I am pretty good at sponsoring people into my business the old way; so I made moderate amounts of money every month for years; but I always knew that their had to be away to put MLM on the internet on auto-pilot.

Well I finally found a system that I am duplicating and I am finally full-time with MLM. So if you are one of those people that understand the potential of MLM but you also know how hard it is to sponsor and truly duplicate your efforts, you need to get more information and refresh your marketing techniques by bringing them up to date.

MLM/Network Marketing was always a better option if you could pull it off. Well, now you can! With the right knowledge and attitude, you can generate 50-100 leads online and get paid during the process. Good luck and don't let anyone tell you that you can't have a good business. You just need the right marketing tools.

Can New-School MLM-Network Marketing Help Build a Sustainable Middle-Class?

America and most of the world is going through a major economic challenge right now. One of the things that feeds these things called recessions is a reduction in spending on things other than bare necessities. It is amazing how little we really need; anyway, that's another article.

People feel compelled to stop spending for one reason or another ranging from job loss to basic caution because of the news reports. While watching one of these report it occurred to me that if more people had larger and more secure incomes, we would be less likely to see these downturns.

But wages have been stagnate in most industries for about 20years in America; and now more than ever we know that job security is lacking.

Legitimate MLM/Network Marketing Could Really Help

During economic conditions such as these you would think people would be rushing to sign-up for the low cost independent business opportunities that a good number of MLM/Network marketing companies offer. So why aren't they?

Most People are Spooked By MLM/Networking The Old Way

Well, I am sure that you have heard if not told some the stories about the MLM nightmares of so people. These tales range from shady company stories to sponsoring/prospecting burn-out. I can see why many people simply take their chances with a job.]

The failure rate of MLM/Networking the old way is 95-97%. In my opinion the great potential of this industry has yet to be seen; and has been tainted by old out dated marketing tactics that effectively kill the business ownership dreams of way too many good capable people.

We Need Revolutionary (Webbased) MLM/Network Marketing-No More Old School

If you were involved in the network marketing industry in the past or currently have a business, you really need to stop and take a look at how you are marketing your opportunity. Basically you need an endless supply of leads and cash along the way to run your business.

There are people that have put the business owner in the drivers seat with cutting edge techniques designed get rid of all the issues involved with sponsoring/recruiting. You will no longer bother your friends and family, make a list of everyone know or any of that old tired failure ridden stuff.

If you get with the right system/people you can build a great business and help the economy by providing a strong income for those in business with you.

The benefits of a large thriving MLM/Network marketing community are many; but there are a lot of people out there still thinking of MLM the old way! I am spreading the word on the new way as fast as I can; it has changed everything for me. I am now full time with MLM after years of part time money the old way.

Take another look at MLM/Network marketing the new way. Put it all on auto-pilot.

With Modern MLM-Network Marketing You Can Overcome Blood From a Turnip Financial Advice

I must admit that I am sort of a TV nerd. I love shows like sixty minutes and the News Hour on PBS. I flip through CNN news and other informational programming all the time. One of the reoccurring themes that I see now days is so called experts giving advice on personal finances.

Just a day or two ago, I saw another expert giving what I consider minimalist advice. I believe in being smart with your money, but after a while it just doesn't add up for a lot of people. Most of the repeated advice goes something like this.

You need to save an emergency fund (6 months living expenses) in case of a lay off or other emergency. You need to pay yourself first by saving a percentage of your salary before paying for or buying anything. You need to contribute the maximum to your 401k. You need to save a college fund for the kids; and on and on and on; and I haven't even mentioned enjoying life!

This is Blood From A Turnip Advice For Most People

The Problem I have with the above advice that I hear given over and over again is where is the money for all this good advice gonna come from? The average American could possibly achieve some of these things if they buy only the things they need in life; which creates another little problem since our economy is based on people buying over and above what they need. When Americans buy only what they need in life, the economy goes into recession. Salaries are stagnate at best for most people and the middle class is being squeeze more and more every day. Before I left the airline industry my salary/benefits were slashed by 35%.

Why Not MLM/Network Marketing

When I hear the advice of these experts, I sit there waiting for someone to state what I think is the obvious; people need more income. I know that if you are bad with money, more of it won't help you; but I am talking straight numbers here. There is just not enough money coming in for most families. Now I know the reputation that old school tactics have caused in MLM/Network Marketing, but you have to know the benefits that MLM offers can enable families to make large enough incomes to accomplish the above mentioned goals and have more time together as a family.

Now, I know what you are thinking, MLM/Network marketing would be great if I could build it without chasing people around! bugging my family and friends, printing flyers and so on. Well, if you were paying close attention, in the previous paragraph when I mentioned MLM/Network marketing I said old school MLM/Network marketing.

The MLM/Network Marketing Game Has Been Modernized

Read carefully here, if you are or ever have been involved with MLM and you had a hard time with the sponsoring/recruiting part of the business; you need to restart your efforts with modern day internet based recruiting methods that not only put you in the position of the hunted and not the hunter; but will delivery 50-100 leads on a daily basis while making money along the way! Such is the power of correct internet marketing. I am an full time MLM/Network marketing now after years of marginal success doing it the old way. The methods I speak of are not part of an Multi Level program. This is a lead/recruiting/profit system that will put the building of any MLM program on auto-pilot.

A 3-Step Action Plan For Laid-Off Workers

For the last year or so I have been watching more news programs than ever with the run-up to the recent election; and as you all know the layoffs are being reported in droves. Sitting there watching the daily reports made me think back on the time when I was laid off myself; and the attitude and actions that I took.

So I decided to write this article in hopes of help others come out on the other side of being laid off in a better financial position than ever.

Step One: Managing the Emotional Aspect of Being Laid Off Is Critical

Fortunately prior to my being laid off I was exposed to a lot of information concerning self esteem, self value and so on. I in other words was well on my way to believing in myself. The type of literature that I was reading simply validated a lot of the individual human values that I was taught as a child in church. Basically, what the creator thinks of you is the absolute truth; and in his eyes, you are magnificent!

In short the first thing you need to do is realize your value! Take it from a very shy and low key guy; the power is within you to change your own circumstances no matter how the world seems to say the opposite.

Your biggest enemy right now is fear and anxiety! I know you are extremely concerned about losing your income; but you have to find a way to direct your energy towards positive out comes.

Step Two: Rethink Your Income Potential. Consider Opportunities That Are Lay-off Proof.

I am a high school graduate, but even if you have a degree or several degrees, it would serve you well to consider alternative incomes that do not depend on the whims of your boss or the seemingly natural flow of many businesses of grow and then cut back. I always hated that the first ones to go were the people that actually do the work. Anyway, that's another article.

What I did, and you can do also is find a legitimate low cost online business to start. I am not saying that you should not follow the career advice of all the people on TV. I am just telling you from experience that you should try to participate in a small business that rewards you for your efforts!

That way you can build an income that will be there no matter what happens on the job. I also know that there are plenty of false promises, scams and so on online. I was ripped off over and over again before becoming a full time online marketer; and I promise you that anything that I suggest is tried and true! You can contact me on that! As you can see the sting of being ripped off is still with me.

Step Three: Carefully Gather Information On Operating an Business Online.

Yes I said carefully. There are a lot of people out their that have no problem taking advantage of the situation that you are in. A good rule of thumb is; if you can contact the person behind the opportunity personally, the opportunity is probably legit. Even if its a email address that gives you a response within a day or 2, that is way better than nothing.

I took this route in and I am so glad that I did. I am now a full-time online marketer and I know that most people, especially over 40 years old, don't think that they know enough about the Internet to succeed. Well I am 47 and I admit, you do have to be open minded in order to succeed; but it can be done. Most of the technical things you need to know have been simplified. Everything from building websites to publishing articles like this can be done by anyone willing to take the time.

Just don't let fear stop you! No one is more deserving of financial success than you. You have to know that!

Why Building a List is Much Better Than Making a List For Your MLM-Network Marketing Business

In this article I will outline the major differences between making a list and building a list. I know that these two concepts sound very similar, but stay with me here and I will explain.

If you have a MLM/Network marketing business you are familiar with being told to MAKE a list of everyone you know as a tool for marketing your business; friends, family, Plummer, dentist, everybody. Now there are a few things about performing this old school network marketing task.

First of all your up-line or MLM Company means well by requesting that you MAKE this list. However, the problem with MAKING a list is that the people on the list are not qualified or vetted to use a modern term. In other words you have no idea whether or not these people are even interested in having business.

Another problem with MAKING a list is that most MLM/Network marketers are making their first attempt at owning a business. So the rejection inherent with prospecting individuals who have shown no interest in having a business kills their spirit rather quickly in most cases.

BUILDING A List Is The Way To Go:

Lately, MLM/Network Marketing has undergone a massive marketing/sponsoring/recruiting change. All of this is being done over the internet. BUILDING a list for your business goes something like this. Over the internet you put advertisements out using both free and paid sources. You provide useful content and or training in return for the names and email addresses of people that are INTERESTED in having a business.

Even with this list most of them will not join your MLM/Network Marketing business, at least not right away. However, they will be interested in more information and products to help them with whatever business they do choose. (Did you catch that?)

With the right marketing funnel you can BUILD a list of prospects for sponsoring, make money with those that do not join your opportunity and stop the revolving door in and out of your business by teaching your business partners how to use this system.

There are relatively few MLM/Network marketers that have knowledge of such a system. I recently discovered this system and my sponsoring/recruiting efforts are all online now.

The system generates 50-100 leads per day on auto pilot. That is a Godsend for any MLM/Network marketer. I hope this article helps you with your business. Take the time to rethink/modernize your sponsoring strategies; this is one area that you do not want to use old school practices in.
