Two Crucial Steps to Success in Network Marketing

On December 28, 2011, in Network Marketing, by Jim

Chris Kent is having a new year’s party at his home.  It’s a “list building” party.  In network marketing Chris believes firmly in building a list of contacts.  Of course this is wise practice for anyone who is the the sales realm.Chris Kent Numis Networks Fouder

But in network marketing, the proprietor is truly a sole proprietor, although often backed by a multi million dollar (or in some cases billion dollar) enterprise.  In a recent meeting among distributors in his business (which is Numis Network), Chris asked how many attendees had actually made a list of at least 100 prospects to contact.  Only about 6 in attendance had actually completed this basic task.

Why is this the case (assuming it is true in many companies) for the vast number of network marketing distributors?  After all, the list is crucial to success in the industry.  In fact Chris refers to a network marketer’s list as their “proprietary capital,” meaning their most important asset, and something that is unique to each individual.

This factor is the key ingredient that separates network marketing from more traditional businesses.  Sure, it is possible to pour large sums of cash into a network marketing business through advertising, but it isn’t a necessity, as is more often the case with traditional business.  A network marketer’s “proprietary capital” is free, although it must be continually refined and developed.

But why don’t more distributors follow through on this crucial step that could spell the difference between failure and having moderate or even a level of success beyond their wildest dreams.  Perhaps failing to “dream” is why?  They possibly need to get back to the dreaming stage before attempting their list building exercise.  And if sufficiently energized by their dreams, list building would just “come naturally.”

Belief and desire must come first.  Chris suggests that network marketing distributors must first imagine, vividly what their eventual success would look like.  It is crucial to get a clear mental picture of success, by even rehearsing, if needed.  Some of the most successful distributors took painstaking, detailed steps in visualizing and “acting out” their eventual success, well before it became a reality.  Then, with a clear picture and belief in their eventual outcome, the seemingly more mundane tasks such as actually taking the time to build a list are more likely to be accomplished, if not automatic.

Is network marketing easy?  No.  Is any business venture easy?  Not usually.  The degree of internal fortitude needed in order to persist, often through multiple failures is significant in any case.  But if you’ve made the decision to think big, get a clear picture of your eventual outcome with the realization that you’ll need to hang onto it very tightly.  Maybe you won’t enjoy the ride, but if you persist to your destination, it will be worth it.  This is true whether you’re attempting a more traditional venture or the somewhat offbeat network marketing model.

Network Marketing Online Using Facebook Applications

Are Facebook applications destined to be the next big development in the realm of Internet marketing?  If you’re in the MLM/network marketing niche, particularly using the Internet to generate leads, you may find this to be the case.  Maverick network marketer David Wood is exerting his considerable influence in his most recent campaign and, incorporating many proven concepts in his next generation MLM recruiting system on Facebook.

Facebook applications provide a very powerful business tool, as well as a familiar interface to many that are used to Farmville and other popular Facebook games.  To date, the practice of using Facebook applications has been reserved for larger companies, due to the cost.  Affordable tools are starting to be made available, particularly in the local marketing realm.  David Wood may be the first to develop a Facebook application specifically for network marketing recruiting purposes.

David Wood pioneered the use of article marketing strategies for the network marketing community, when many believed it to not be possible.  What he did was merely demonstrate how a homeless person living in a van, could tap into the Internet, as a complete marketing newcomer, and develop a following of over 30,000 in under two years.  Now in taking his vision to the next level, he is using his new “Government-Approved” Facebook application as a viral presentation tool and driving massive traffic via his followers, many of whom have become rabid article marketing “machines,” under his leadership.  Here are the features included in the system he’s put together:

  • Use of Facebook application to generate leads as well make a presentation
  • Free MLM recruiting and lead generation training
  • Automated list building (leads) without the need for squeeze page, capture pages, etc.
  • Tracking of referrals to the Facebook application

Anyone who is serious about their MLM business should at least understand what their competition is up to.  If not, you’re sure to be left in the dust.  Need further proof of the effectiveness of this method?  Here are a couple of testimonials from using the system:

Just got a sign-up today!  Someone I haven’t even talked to…..Maybe it’s the 90-day challenge!!” Andie Petoskey

We’ve got an incredible amount of people through the presentation in a short time – over 1347 in 5 days!  Not bad. This is just the beginning – I’m working on cranking out the funnel, and soon – if we all just keep blogging and linking to the presentation – as a team we’ll have 1347 people watching the presentation EVERY five days!  (Then, every day…) David Wood

And, the following are some recent Alexa traffic rankings resulting from David’s team sharing content on the team website:

For comparison purposes, traffic is compared to Internet marketing “sensation” Jonathan Budd, as well as entire MLM companies, e.g., Herbalife.com and USANA.com.  Since starting this promotion, the results have been off the charts, literally.

To see for yourself what all this commotion is about, please visit the following Facebook application link and decide for yourself.  But I assure you that David Wood and company are putting up numbers the likes of which have never before been seen in network marketing, or the Internet itself.

Network Marketing Success Story – A Belly to Belly Approach

On March 22, 2011, in Network Marketing, by Jim

Robert Brewer, who is a builder, works his network marketing business part time.  In the last 60 days he has sold over $70,000 in product, recruited 20+ people and generated over 200 referrals for free.  Network marketing has provided a solution for a financial problem created in his life when the building industry in his area collapsed (going from 1600 home production to only 400).  Many of his co-workers have lost homes, cars, marriages, and more, due to the slowdown.  In his housing development, 32 of 54 homes are in foreclosure or soon to be.  Network marketing is allowing him to be the exception and overcome his situation.  To what does he attribute his network marketing success?

Everywhere he goes, he notices people that look sharp and finds a way to connect with them.  He recently noticed a person with a gold chain and complimented him, which led to a conversation about gold and silver (his networking business is in gold and silver).  He was able to not only begin the prospecting process, but qualify him as a prospect for his business.  Robert tries to see the good in people; and believes that there are hundreds of thousands who need to be told the message of his network marketing company.

Robert also met someone in a convenience store who knows the president of the American Numismatic Association, and was able to make an initial connection for his business.  And he recently met an owner of two BMW dealerships on an airplane who ended up becoming a representative so he could buy $67,000 in product.

Robert is a master of getting referrals and once received 157 referrals from a single person.  He doesn’t worry about people’s reaction when contacting them; rather just realizes that whatever happens, happens.   He always thanks people for their time regardless if they join him in business or not and keeps those who give him referrals informed of each outcome.

Robert completely avoids the Internet; completely relying on meeting people in a traditional “belly to belly” approach for his business.  He is proof that the time-tested methods of network marketing and relationship building are still effective.  He uses many traditional sources of training including Zig Zigler, Og Mandino, and others, in order to adapt to network marketing as efficiently as possible.  Robert’s watchwords are “adapt” and “overcome,” which have served him well in becoming an inspiring network marketing success story.

How to Create Full Time Income in Your First 30 to 60 Days in Network Marketing

On March 8, 2011, in Network Marketing, by Jim
0

Is it possible for anyone to earn a full time income in your network marketing business, within 60 days?  A full-time income can be defined as $30,000 to 50,000 per year, based on the current averages in North America.  Although this type of rapid success isn’t typical, there are many instances where it has been easily accomplished.

The people who understand why something is working always do better than those who don’t understand it.

Finding the “gold vein” in network marketing will define the point when a network marketer’s business starts to grow.  What generally happens at this point is that a network marketing business that is doing what it is supposed to will experience rapid growth.  Massive success comes quickly and usually suddenly.  The people who understand why their network marketing business is working always do better than those who doing know why.  Always be asking yourself why people who have great success do what they do.  Your main goal should be to personally earn what you need from your own efforts, e.g., if you earn a $100 bonus per recruit, then you need to personally recruit 25 per month in order to earn about $36,000 per year.  It isn’t rocket science, wouldn’t you agree?

Focus on enough production today to sustain your lifestyle.

With a good opportunity, you should be able to enroll about 1 out of 30 people with whom you connect.  Attraction marketing guru David Wood had 20 people looking at his business every day when he first started. Working 6 days a week, this would result in 480 exposures and, on average, earnings of 16x$100, or $1600.  Not quite enough, but you get the idea, and please realize that David became the Internet’s leading attraction marketing guru in the MLM niche using even this  level of effort. Similarly, you need to focus each day on what you need to do to make the income you need and want.  Focus on enough production today to sustain your lifestyle.  Do what you have to do.  If your personal sphere of influence isn’t big enough to sustain 20 or 30 daily connections, start working on generating leads, e.g., via using one of many possible attraction marketing strategies, meeting new people in your daily walk, or whatever it takes.

In network marketing, 99% of your own efforts dictate your earnings in the beginning.  Later on, you’ll have created the leverage by your initial efforts that will sustain your business.  Be inspired in order to accomplish the level of production needed to sustain your “needs.”  This won’t come naturally for most people in North America, since our culture has created a great amount of wealth.  Dig deep and find what will motivate you to make the efforts needed each day.

Can you create a full time income in 90 days?  The answer lies within, but if you know of a better alternative that can eventually lead to an unlimited residual income, go for it!  For assistance with both online and offline strategies, we suggest a trial membership in My Lead System Pro, the Internet’s leading attraction marketing system.  You may listen to a weekly training session, or contact me for further information.

Can the Internet Automate the Attraction Marketing Process for MLM?

On March 2, 2011, in Attraction Marketing, Network Marketing, by Jim
1

Although it sounds new, attraction marketing is nothing new, really.  Leaders in network marketing and many other industries have been using the methodology for years, even before the Internet’s existence. So why is it that many people these days seem to want to use the Internet to replace the relationship building process in sponsoring for their network marketing business?

Several leaders in My Lead System Pro, who have the results to be listened to closely, shared their experiences and advice pertaining to the use of the Internet’s “seductive” technologies vs.  older, tried-and-true methods.  Some of these leaders, as with the MLSP founders, have “come around” in their thinking.  This is why some of the, still existing, sales copy in MLSP “preaches” that you won’t have to approach your friends and family.

Rob Fore, like many before him initially tried to build a sales funnel that would directly sponsor people into his network marketing business.  What he discovered was this didn’t work.  He believes that people that don’t want to contact their “warm market” lack a core belief in some area.  It might be in the industry, company, or most likely in themself.  What he discovered was that his focus needed to be on using the Internet for leverage and then establishing relationships with people as the most important part of his strategy.

Don’t wish for the task to be easier, wish for you to be better.  Jim Rohn

Ray Higdon believes that the network marketing industry has been exploited (he uses a more colorful term) by “gurus” taking advantage of people’s hopes and dreams, selling them expensive courses related to Internet from a more technical perspective, without leading to tangible success.  At the same time, however, he believes that network marketing is the last bastion of free enterprise.  He had $300 in the bank and was broke when he started out on his fifth attempt in MLM, but is today his company’s top recruiter.  He makes extensive use of social media. But, if a new recruit tells him he doesn’t want to talk to people; but rather to just market online, he tells them to go sign up with someone else.   According to Ray, everyone hates prospecting, but leaders just buckle in and do it anyway.

Everyone hates prospecting, but leaders do it anyway.

What if someone on your team comes to you saying they’ve burned out their warm market?  Ray’s approach is to have them go through a “fun” exercise, to “get them out of the way first.”  Call them up and say “I just started a new enterprise and I know this isn’t for you, but I need to mark you off my list, so I can move on.”  Many will naturally ask what it is about, to which you can reply:  “I have this short video that you can watch about it; then just get back to me if you want additional information.”  Ray finds this actually results in sign-ups.

If not building an elaborate attraction marketing system, then for a new person who just signed up, what are the most important things that should be done immediately?  David Wood, the KING of attraction marketing, now starts every new person on very traditional methods.  Specifically,  if someone has been in 6 MLMs and failed every time, then home meetings will probably not work.  On the other hand, if it’s been awhile or a new person has never tried home meetings, then they will more likely work than not.  David suggests making a list of all the resources that you have available to you now vs. later.  What connections are the strongest in your life?  Leverage these first, and then work as hard as possible to expand beyond these, including building that attraction marketing system for maximum long term result.

Start with what you have vs. what you don’t have.

Answering a related question: “What would you do tonight to make money tomorrow?”  Rob Fore suggests getting with those you’re closest to and just tell them “from the heart” why you’re starting your enterprise and see if they wouldn’t want to join you.  What could be better than working on an awesome project with those closest to you?  Ray Higdon believes that speed ties in with those you’re closest to.  Make an agreement with yourself that you’re just an inviter in a time which more people than ever are “hurting.”  If you want something you’re never had, you have to be willing to do something you’ve never done.

David Wood had a change of opinion after 90 days online, when he realized that it wasn’t possible to solely depend on the Internet and automated sales funnels in building a big enterprise.  He began advising his team to entirely start with a “warm market” approach.  From a big picture perspective, how many people have sufficient background to immediately succeed in online attraction marketing?  In reality, most need to start with their “real world” resources first.

Have the MLSP founders and leaders changed course?  And can the Internet actually be used to automate attraction marketing (especially in the network marketing world)?  Although evidence suggests that it not only possible, but very viable, this isn’t a good strategy for brand new network marketers to completely rely on due to the complexity.  Long term, yes, but early on the tried and true methods reign, just like the “old-time” pros told us they would!

A Simple Online Attraction Marketing Blueprint – MLSP’s Revised Success Strategy

On February 24, 2011, in Attraction Marketing, Network Marketing, by Jim
1

Norbert Orlewicz and Brian Fanale recently put forth a simple strategy for members of their My Lead System Pro (MLSP) membership system.  Many of the attendees thought this to be a reversal of  MLSP’s previous teaching for at least two reasons.  First, Norbert and Brian highly stressed the fact that  although simple, a realistic plan for attraction marketing will take 6 to 12 months, perhaps to dispel any notion that their system would produce immediate or very short term success.   And second, they stressed that network marketers can’t really afford to “bypass” their friends and family.  Does this constitute a complete reversal of direction for MLSP?

Believing and knowing that you hold true value to other people gives you the confidence and abundance mentality you need in order to be an “alpha networker,” (or leader).  Mike Dillard

Norbert and Brian also made it clear that at some point in their “growth cycle,” the most successful marketers would develop their own custom systems vs. relying entirely on MLSP’s replicated system autoresponder follow-up campaigns,  squeeze pages and sales pages.  Not every marketer will follow the same path, but each will progress and make use of the Internet to varying degree according to their own capabilities, interests, and strategies.

MLSP continues to rely on the wisdom and example of Mike Dillard, who was one of the first to bring the disciplines of attraction marketing and network marketing together.  This despite the fact that they seem to have put some distance between themselves and Mike’s “traditional MLM is broke” approach.  Here are Norbert’s suggested  simple steps and blueprint for becoming successful in attraction marketing:

  1. Be a student of direct response marketing and attraction marketing.  Become more valuable in the process, as you’ll develop the ability to help others in their marketing plans and efforts.  This is the basis of Mike Dillard’s “funded proposal” concept.
  2. Provide solutions.  Begin using replicated websites that lead with value, training and feature solutions to your prospects’ problems.  Norbert suggests taking  a page from the playbook of the “father of attraction marketing,” Mike Dillard.  Mike’s genius was providing a simple solution for the problems being experienced by his prospects involving an upfront offer, an autoresponder, and funded proposal affiliate system.  Note that network marketing gurus have always sold their own “products,” which in some cases have become their primary income stream.
  3. Personalize.  At some point, you’ll be ready to customize your MLSP system.  Norbert suggests first customizing the email autoresponders by adding your own “voice.”  Later, you can add your own videos and customizations to your landing, sales, and welcome pages.
  4. Become a trainer.  Begin to teach and train others.  Create training videos, host webinars, and train your team.
  5. Leadership.  Create your own opt-in offers, capture pages, and individualized sales funnels.  You may consider your own products, e.g., an ebook, video training course, boot camp, etc.  But don’t fake this step, e.g., this is not the time to “fake it until you make it.”

    Why the Internet kills networkers

    The Internet Kills Networkers

The goal of the MLSP membership system is to develop master marketers and leaders in the network marketing community.  Their most notable success stories (beyond their own) include David Wood, Ray Higdon and others who are proof that Norbert and company have already succeeded in this aim.

Although some would perceive their strategy adjustments to mark a major shift, we believe that it is only a course correction.  The MLSP leadership merely underscores their position through a willingness to course correct when needed.  They will continue to lead the way for many to have extremely successful outcomes using the Internet and their own attraction marketing systems.

Numis Network Breaks the Mold – Announces First Ever 5 Year Product Buy-Back Offer

On February 21, 2011, in Network Marketing, Wealth Strategies, by Jim

Lincoln memorial cent, with the S mintmark of ...

Image via Wikipedia

When joining any network marketing or direct sales company, many people wonder if they “just might” be overpaying for products that they are buying.  Many direct sales companies, if reputable, offer a 30 day or 60 day “no questions asked” product return option, to help overcome this perception and to underscore the value of the products provided.   Last weekend, Numis Network went the extra mile,  offering a 5 year buy-back offer for any of their products purchased on a monthly auto-shipment.  This has never been done in network marketing, or possibly any other sales venue previously.

 

In network marketing many question whether or not the products are overpriced.

In the words of Ray Higdon, the top earner in Numis Network, all other companies in the network marketing “space” are too high risk now.  Certainly this has created considerable “buzz” in the Numis distributor community, many of whom experienced this announcement first-hand in Las Vegas.  But does this really amount to a huge game changer, as many of them now claim?

All other network marketing companies are now too high risk.Numis Network Gold and Silver Business Overview

To help answer that question, we turned to a “seasoned” coin collector with a large collection of modern issue coins, and is not involved as a Numis Network distributor.  Who better to ask?  Here is his reaction, after watching the live announcement, which was broadcast live on Ustream.tv:

I was able to watch the entire conference video. It was VERY obvious that Ian (Numis Networks founder) and the others were VERY tired (understatement) of answering the that same question, “WHAT’S IT GOING TO BE WORTH IN 5 YEARS”.  I applaud their effort and their willingness to buy back coins, a risk I myself would be afraid to promise.  With the minting of Numis members coins being extremely high and all of us ‘coin collectors’ being fully aware that scarcity is what really drives up a value, for Ian and company to be willing to buy back ANACS graded coins in only 5 years, and at the club cost, is a bold promise.  Those of us that are currently purchasing newly minted silver coins are putting our faith in the fact that the price of precious metals (silver) will continue to rise, or at least not decline. J. Whitt

Coin collectors, who are conservative by nature, and many of whom have a few “battle scars” from some of the previous fluctuations in precious metals valuation are impressed by the Numis Network offer.  With US federal debt continuing to mount and a scarcity of tangible, meaningful actions to reverse it, Numis Network is highly likely to be on solid footing for the foreseeable future, in making this offer, but in any case have taken the risk out of the equation for purchasers.  Historically, collectibles have proven to provide a good inflation hedge, over time.
Burke Hedges (no pun intended), author of “Who Stole the American Dream” and 23 year veteran network marketing distributor believes this to be one of those rare moments in history that will take Numis Network to a new level, and ultimately to one of the greatest success stories ever seen in the network marketing industry.  Burke has never seen a comparable announcement in the industry and believes this opportunity will provide a solution to many now experiencing financial difficulties.
We leave it to the reader to decide, but believe there is considerable credibility behind the assessment of these leading industry experts.  Those seeking a good opportunity for the first time, or possibly ready for a change, should consider the Numis Network opportunity, and see if it might be able to provide a solution for their own “Plan B” or even casual income needs.  Mad money anyone?

Network Marketing Lead Generation Tips – Leveraging Authority Sites

On February 16, 2011, in Network Marketing, Search Engine Optimization, by Jim
0

Rob Fore, recently shared his secrets in leveraging authority sites, in order to generate over 50 leads (his best day is now 61 leads) per day. Rob uses the My Lead System Pro marketing platform for his landing pages, sales, and welcome pages.

Rob has been involved with MLSP about six months.  He immediately recognized the power available in the system and began building his marketing system and campaigns.  His strategy involves leveraging search engines by creating relevant content on authority sites, such as Ezinearticles.com.  His strategy recognizes that the number of incoming links, or back links, and page rank are important in ranking these pages.  Rob finds that for each article on an authority site ranking on the first page of Google, he receives one lead per day.

In order to leverage top authority sites with existing Google ranking for the exact terms he wants to target, Rob suggests the following steps:

  1. Select a Target Market – For MLSP, this is frustrated network marketers and anyone looking to make extra money.
  2. Research the Market’s Needs and Wants – What terms are they entering in the search engines to solve their problems?  Find existing authority sites already ranking for terms that are related to the problem.
  3. Write Relevant Content – Post content on selected authority site and your MLSP page (or blog).
  4. Get Backlinks – Promote your content using automated tools.

Rob targets popular products that are being launched on the Internet.  He has written articles on MLM Launch Formula, as one prime example, where he now ranks #3 in Google.  He also uses company reviews to generate many leads.  Also, since many people are searching for marketing “gurus” online, he uses this to generate  many leads as well, leveraging searches for “experts” like Todd Falcone,  Brian Fanale, and others.

Rob’s secret technique, which he shared for MLSP members,  is based on  research using tools such as Market Samurai to discover keywords already ranking on authority sites.  Then he creates content on this keyword and submits to the same authority site.  Finally, he uses Article Marketing Robot to create massive backlinks to the article he posted on the site.  This knocks the current article off Google’s front page, replacing with his new article.  The magic of this technique completely changes the amount of traffic getting to his articles, e.g., instead of 20 views per month he gets usually 20 views per day.

This strategy is ingenious, and just one of many shared through the weekly training webinars available to MLSP members and guests.  The strategy takes consistent and persistent action for eventual and long term success.   But the traffic created will continue and build over time, creating an incredible online legacy for anyone using this strategy.   Most importantly, Rob’s strategy can be used by any internet marketer for any business that could benefit from top rankings on Google.  For more network marketing lead generation tips, please visit our MLSP landing pages and opt-in for a 30-day trial membership.

Network Marketing Tips – Keeping it Fun, Simple, and Duplicatable

On February 16, 2011, in Network Marketing, by Jim
0

Jake Kervorkian, founder of Numis Network, started in network marketing at age 21 and by age 25 was making more than most top earners in the world. In April of 1995, he took an entire month off, taking his family on a vacation and going to golf tournaments. When he got back, his check from his business had increased by over $3,000. What other than a network marketing business offers this kind of results?.

Join now here

When he returned from vacation, his weekly check had increased by over $3,000.

The two most important benefits of network marketing are time freedom and financial independence.   In order to achieve these benefits, it is critical that what you do can be easily duplicated.  Systems, tools, and events are the key to duplication in network marketing.  Successful people in network marketing attend all events and promote them to their team.  Although not a guarantee of success, Jake advises plugging into events.  This is  not only because it is what every six figure earner is doing, but to reinforce your own beliefs.

The main reason people fail in network marketing always comes down to belief.

The main reason people fail always comes down to belief.  The more plugged-in to events that you are, the stronger your belief will be.    If you (even subconsciously) hesitate or are timid about talking to people it will seriously detract from your desired level of success.  Therefore, it is Jake’s belief that although certain things in any business are negotiable, in network marketing, attending the major events isn’t.

The second non-negotiable item in network marketing is personal development.  Network marketers are 100% stock owners in “You Inc.”  Developing the needed skills comes from reading the right books, and attending events.  Jim Rohn has said that you have to work harder on yourself than on your business.

“You have to work harder on yourself than on your business.”  Jim Rohn

Burke Hedges, gives great credit for his success to a time he was visited by his sister-in-law, who brought him the book, The Greatest Salesman in the World, by Og Mandino.  This one book entirely changed his life at that point.  Burke believes, however, that reading a book isn’t enough, because personal development may also necessitate studying and putting information into practice.  If you “really want” to achieve something will do whatever it takes, often taking actions that are inconvenient, or you don’t “want” to do.

Could it be that your success in network marketing (or any other business endeavor which you happen to have chosen), is limited by these factors?  If so, now that you understand the importance of events and personal development what will you do about it?

Numis Network is a network marketing company which is attracting many top MLM leaders (e.g., Burke Hedges) as well as  others simply interested in the benefits of the industry.  As with other network marketing companies, Numis Network allows is distributors to start-up their own business for minimal investment in its toolset and without the need for the other usual business start up costs of franchise fees, employees, inventory, facilities, organizing costs, etc .

10 Prospecting Tricks That Will Produce 50 Leads Daily – MLSP Webinar Review

On February 9, 2011, in Attraction Marketing, Network Marketing, by Jim
2

Ray Higdon recently shared his “non-techie” tips that he has used to produce up to 50 leads daily in his business.   Ray is highly successful as a top leader in MLSP and the top income earner in his primary company.   Although these techniques are mostly offline, they should be viewed as a part of an overall marketing strategy, which also includes online marketing.  These techniques, are for “hustlers,” vs. “hopers” in the industry.  If you’re more about online content, consider making videos of YOU going around town doing these techniques.  That could be an awesome integration of online content for attraction marketing.  What a concept!

Although Ray’s methods are mainly offline methods, they could be easily incorporated into your daily attraction marketing campaigns, by making videos of YOU using these methods to generate low to no cost leads.

  1. Use the System (My Lead System Pro) – This method requires 10 minutes per day, using the copy/paste and existing pre-configured sales funnels.  The estimated leads produced is 5+ per day.  When prospecting, ask key questions such as “Are you generating many leads on Twitter today?”
  2. Work Events -This method requires 2-3 hours per week attending 2 events in your area per week.  This method will produce 50 leads minimum (7 leads per day).  Find good networking events and get as many business cards as possible without introducing what you do.  Then follow-up with them the next day on the phone.  This is magical, since no one is doing it; rather everyone is pitching their company, program, or product.  Here is Ray’s script “Would you be open to a side project that doesn’t interfere with what you are currently doing.”
  3. Contest Entry Boxes -  This method takes 2-3 hours per week.
  4. Post it Notes – This strategy takes 4-5 hours per week placing a stamped post-it note all around town.  The suggested text is as follows:  “Superstars Only – Make $50-$300K – Don’t Even Call Unless You Are a Producer and Can Prove It.”  Larry Beacham has used this method to generate 35 calls to his GoogleVoice mail from 100 notes.  The technique requires posture, and although it shouldn’t be stated as a job opportunity many will perceive it that way.  Larry suggests
  5. Realtor Signs – While driving around town, call 5-20 realtors, asking them “Would you be open to a way to making an income that has nothing to do with real estate?”  Today most real estate professionals are having trouble surviving.
  6. Free Seminar or Webinar – This method requires 4-5 hours weekly, using content from MLSP in your own webinars.  Prior to the seminar, ask attendees to describe their main issue or problem with online marketing, and then try to address their answers in the form of an advertisment for a second session which will address their main issues.
  7. Really Going for Referrals – This method although only taking 1-2 hours weekly will produce 5-50 leads per person.  For people who tell you “no,” ask “You have got to know someone who has been affected by the economy or lost their job; would you mind if we shared this with them?”  If still “no,” then say ” No? Really? No one you want to help?  Someone struggling?”  After you contact their referrals, call the person back for more.
  8. Card Grab – This method takes 1-2 hours weekly and can produce 10-30 leads per day.  Find places in your area that have corkboards where people place their business cards or advertising.  Call them and say “Not sure where I found your card, but would you be open to a side project that doesn’t interfere with what you are doing?”  These are people who want to make more money or they wouldn’t be advertising.
  9. Local Google Alerts – This method takes 1-2 hours weekly and can generate 5+ leads per day.  Google will alert you of news in cities you might want to develop a team.  Don’t watch the news, but let the news come to you if it will help you get more leads, e.g., learn about when a mortgage company closes in the area.  Contact people featured in the news and prospect them by building relationships vs. beating them over the head.
  10. People You Meet – This method takes 1-2 hours per week and can generate 5+ leads per day.  Don’t explain or present and keep it loose, oriented to family, occupation, recreation.  Be rushed and tell them “gotta run,” but as you are leaving ask “Just throwing it out there; would you be open to a side project…”  Ray finds that 9/10 will say “yes” or “what is it?”  Although Ray has done his company presentation over 900 times, he WILL NOT present now, because it is not duplicatable (the prospect will think this is what they have to do). Ray’s next statement is “Well, it may or not be for you, but check out the following information (website, audio CD, etc.) and I’ll follow-up afterwards.”  Get their information and try to set a follow-up appointment.

To be successful in MLM, you have to be willing to talk to people.

For every single prospect, and especially those that say “no,” Ray will ask the following:  “How are you doing generating leads online.”  Ray also advises not to forget your warm list; just don’t be addicted to the outcome, or expect sensational results!  Even Mike Dillard, the king of online attraction marketing, recently told an audience in Las Vegas, that he would go to the warm market “as long as he didn’t care if they responded or not.”  One person should not be able to bring you down, especially considering that a full-time residual income can be generated in 3 years or less in this industry (where else is this true?).  But, to be successful in MLM, you have to be willing to talk to people.  For further information and to access similar  attraction marketing leads generation training from MLSP’s leaders, please visit our MLSP Overview Page.
