Home Business Training-The Three Focuses

October 11, 2009 by Doug Firebaugh 1 Comment

home business focus

Home business is a great profession.

Home Based business owners need many things.

They need time.

They need drive.

They need effort.

They need also FOCUS.

There are three focuses you can have on working this great business. Each one will bring you success, but only one will truly create momentum.

And in this Nugget, I want to share with you the way to ignite a fire of success in your business and drive it to the heights of any success you seek!!!!

The First MLM Focus is:

1) “RETAILERS”

This will create a steady paycheck for you and will move a lot of product. Retailing can be a slower way to work this business, but many people are happy with an extra $1,000.00 a month and want no more.

This group of folks are the majority of people who WORK MLM, not play with it. They are PRODUCT-focused, and that is what they take to the marketplace… products and a story to tell.

If you want a steady paycheck, make sure you have retailers and lots of them.

The Second MLM Focus is:

2) “BUILDERS”

These are the people in your group who “see” the big picture and know that it is BUILDING a business that will create volume and bigger paychecks.

Builders understand that recruiting is of HUGE importance, and they recruit retailers, as well as other builders. Builders also understand that with this focus, they are focused on the Business PROCESS… not just the PRODUCTS.

Builders see a longer term business as well… with big volume and big paychecks.

The Third MLM Focus is…

3) “DRIVERS”

This is the group that “gets it.” They understand that in order to create momentum, you must DRIVE the business, not just build it. They are not focused on products, nor process, but POWER. The Power that emerges from a clear vision of the future. And they focus on recruiting builders and other drivers.

Retailing and Building are ACTION focused.

Drivers are MINDSET focused… and go after the picture they hold in their mind of what they want out of life, and will not be denied in any way, shape or form.

The 3 Big Traits of Drivers are:

“Relentless pursuit.”
“Build people, not just a business.”
“Leadership… and it shows in all they do.”

Drivers are also focused on WEALTH creation, not just a paycheck.

It is the Dream of a larger lifestyle for themselves and their team that drives them. They understand one phrase… and have it engraved on their heart:

“Whatever it takes.”

The Million Dollar Network Marketing Question:

Retailer?

Builder?

Driver?

You decide what you want this business to give you… and you will find your focus in MLM and Network Marketing Home based business!

Blessings…

MLM Network Marketing Training- The MLM Secret of Getting the Decision and Closing the Prospect.

October 11, 2009 by Doug Firebaugh Leave a Comment

MLM Network Marketing Training- The MLM Secret of Getting the Decision and Closing the Prospect.

By Doug Firebaugh

This is where the rubber meets the road. This is where you MAKE YOUR MONEY!

Picture going through your prospect presentation. You’re really nailing the presentation — going through your series of “Next Moves” to keep your prospect involved and increase their knowledge and interest in your opportunity.

Then comes…

Decision TIME in MLM.

INFERNO Secret:

No Decision. No paycheck.

The last thing you want to hear at this point is a “Maybe.”

INFERNO Secret:

Maybes in this business will KILL YOU. You MUST get Prospects Off the Fence!

The Decision is where the Involvement is either crystallized or told goodbye. You cannot make money in this business without bringing them to a Decision.

INFERNO Secret:

On the Fence = Off the Pay Plan.

In Network Marketing- NEVER Close.

So you want to try to bring them to a decision. And the most common way to do that is through “CLOSING”…

NEVER CLOSE! You will lose out in the long run…

Why?

The last word in Close is Lose…and if you or your distributors don’t close your Prospect, you will think that you have LOST.

But in reality you have SUCCEEDED!

How?

You got a Decision. And you lead your prospect to the decision that was right for them.

INFERNO Secret:

This business is NOT for everyone. Your job is not to Close people, but to help navigate them to a decision that is right for them…

How?

By using what we call “Navigators”…

What are they?

Phrases to help LEAD people to the decision that is right for them.

Think about it…you don’t want people to sign up who will be a headache down the road. So sell them a product, get referrals, and Move Forward…

The Master MLM Navigator Questions.

Here are what we call the “Master Navigator Questions”…

Start with…

You know, all I want is what is best for you…and is right for you. This was for me, but you’re not me. I am not here to convince you of anything…only to see if this is right for you…

Then ask…

Does this make sense? (answer)
What is the one thing that really got your attention? Yeah…a lot of folks like that part…
I’ve got an idea…let’s do this…let’s get the paperwork out of the way so we can get you on your way…

What you have done is create an environment TO HELP THEM MAKE A DECISION!

Not CLOSE THEM!!!

People will appreciate this so much more than CLOSING them, online or offline…even though getting the decision online simply requires them taking action of some kind…

MLM Navigator 2

You know…I can tell you know whether this is right for you or not…I have a question…Can you see yourself being successful in this business???? (answer)

Well…I’ve got an idea. Let’s do this…

Now what happens if they say “

No…it’s not for me?”…you say…”GREAT! I am glad you took the time to make an informed decision that is right for you — I appreciate your honesty, but I hope you will be a cheerleader for me! I need your support! And I know you will continue using the Product.

Question — if you were me and you were new in this business, who would be the first 2 people you know you would call?

MLM Navigator 3

“Strength = Asset” Navigator…

Let me ask you a question? You have skills, assets and strengths that you can bring to the table to help any company succeed. Would you agree?

I have skills, assets and strengths, especially in this business, that I bring to the table that can help any company succeed…Let me ask you a question…

Combining YOUR strengths and assets with MY strengths and assets, what kind of business do you think we could build together?

Great…I have an idea…let’s do this…

There are a lot of other navigators, but these are a start…

INFERNO Secret:

Navigation is LEADING…People follow strength…Be a Leader with Navigators instead of just getting them to sign an application. If you’re a leader, you will get plenty of apps…

Best of all — the Decision is simple to get…

INFERNO Secret:

You MUST help and guide people to a decision that is right for them.

If they do not join you, they will REFER you to folks precisely because you didn’t try to pressure them to do something that was not for them. Get them as a customer…and get referrals…and you’ll achieve success in MLM and Network Marketing.

MLM Network Marketing Training- MLM’s – Are They a Viable Online Business?

October 11, 2009 by Doug Firebaugh Leave a Comment

MLM Network Marketing Training- MLM’s – Are They a Viable Online Business?

by Ann Rusnak

You’ve seen those ads “Make $10,000 instantly with a Business on the Internet” . Okay, that’s an exaggeration. Ads promising wealth on the Internet usually belong to people participating in Multi-Level Marketing/Networking (MLM/NM) programs. Trying to fulfill that promise of wealth and financial freedom. The focus of this series has been on how you can profit from the Internet Revolution. It is only appropriate that we devote an article to Multi-level marketing/Network marketing.

Three Things First before continuing.

We do not endorse or promote any Multi-level marketing opportunity on our site.
I know several l people using these programs with success and will be more than glad to refer you, if you think a MLM opportunity is for you.
There are low-lifes in any industry. MLM/NM is no acceptation.

MLM’s are being promoted as the best fit for an Internet business. The two were made for each other. Multi-level marketing programs are legitimate home business models. They are under the scrutiny of the Federal Trade Commission.

People make their money when products are sold. Sometimes they are confused with pyramid schemes. A pyramid scheme is when money is transferred from a lower level to a higher level. The people closest the top benefit from the people on the lower levels contributing money. The lower levels will never see the full benefits of the money the contributed to join. Some pyramid schemes will disguise themselves as MLM by selling some type of product or services but the price to join is way and above the actually value of that product. It’s not the selling of the product that brings in the money, it’s when the people join.

What are the Advantages of an MLM

A properly run MLM system is a win-win for both company and distributor. When you sign up with a Multi-level marketing company, you are considered an independent contractor. That makes you your own boss.

First advantage is you’re the boss of your business. You set the hours you want to work.

Other advantages include.

Low entry barriers. You don’t need a college education or any particular education to begin your business.
Start-up costs are low.
You can work out of your home.
You don’t need to quit your current job. You can build your MLM business until it can replace your current income.
Residual Income. You keep earning a percentage of your downline sales. As long as they are selling products.
You are rewarded in proportion to your efforts.
Multi-level marketing companies have pre-defined business and marketing plans.
They also manufacture the product and drop ship it to your customer.
Many of them handle the paper work.

What are the Disadvantages.

Alienating your friends and acquaintances.

These are the people your upline will have start marketing to first. Your upline will have you contact these people to try to “recruit” them into the business. I am sure all of us have been approached by somebody to join their program. The big emphasis is on financial freedom for joining. Some of these companies want you to use the so-called “Curiosity Approach”. This approach certainly puts my guard up.

A better approach would be to a call your friends and let them know you looking at MLM company to make some extra money. Ask if you could drop of some products from them to try and get their opinion on them. This will be a good indication of how well your products will sell.

You need to be a Self Starter and able to lead and motivate others.

To earn the residual income, you must recruit people. This is where you make the BIG money. You have to stay on top of your downline to make sure they are actively recruiting. You need train and motivate them. Your upline should provide you with the training you need. Don’t count on somebody to motivate you though.

Financial Commitment.

Some programs require you to buy a certain amount of products every month to stay active and eligible for the program. Make the company is offering products that you are going to use. If you don’t like the product, look for a company with products you do like.

WORDS OF WISDOM

MLM as an ideal type of Internet Business.

This is one of the biggest selling points in joining a Multi-level marketing company. You get to have your own Internet business. Check out the Rules and regulations very carefully. Some companies have very strict restrictions that your business is nothing more than a glorified online ordering form with no way for you build the business online. Many make it easy for their distributors to run their businesses online.

Some companies provide templates to set up a website. Others let you create your own web site. I haven’t come across one company that approves of spamming. The more flexibility you have to market online, the better the chances you have of someone finding your site and buying. Especially if you can optimize your web sites for the search engines

The URL or web address.

There are companies that make your name a part of their web address. For example. www.mymlmcompany.com/myownname.html. You can have a little print of this on your business cards as your web address. Some one visiting the site could bookmark and come back easily. You still get the credit for the sale. Others allow you to have your own domain. There are MLM companies that you just direct people to the main site. They usually require a passcode to enter or to purchase. Even if someone bookmarked the page, without the code they can’t enter. You could easily loose the sale. The Internet is about convenience.

One company I researched actually gave you three options to ensure the right person got credit in case you forgot the passcode number. You searched for their company id number by their name, email address or their business name.

The System

There are some MLM companies that say the have a proven system for success. Most of the time it is not the company but the distributors that have developed this system. A lot of them are nothing more than motivational systems with very little training on growing your business. There is big money in motivational materials. You may have to spend hundreds of dollars a month on these systems. How much product are you going to have to sell to afford the training system? Is there any emphasis on selling the products and obtaining customers or is it on recruiting people and getting them on the system. Does the Multi-level company produce their own business support materials? If so, why is emphasis on buying distributor produce business support materials?

I compared training programs of the #1 affiliate program for 1999 The 5 Pillar Program to the # 1 MLM company. What a shock. Both companies offer quality products. Joining the 5 Pillar Program is Free. Hundred for the other. The #1 MLM company systems cost about $225 a month for the basics including a passcode protect web page. That doesn’t include recruiting or showing the plan supplies. That is just the training/motivational system. You need to sell about $2000-$4000 in products a month to support the basics. This system is not put together by the company but by the distributors. All the training material, software, manuals are free in the 5 Pillar Program. You also get weekly coaching through a newsletter. There is also email support. The 5 Pillar program also offers lifetime customers and commissions. 5If you need a website, the 5 Pillar program offers the service to register your own domain name, build a site with unlimited pages and host it for the year for under $100 (US).

Multi-level marketing was once an alternative for people who wanted to start business but didn’t have the capital, knowledge, or time to start one. Franchises had become too expensive for the average person. Many have been able to obtain financial freedom through network marketing. You can still achieve this freedom today.

The Internet has opened up many other possibilities to own a business online with a low cost start-up. Multi-level marketing can be the best option for you to have an Internet based business. You just need to do some investigation. Ask lots of question. Don’t let anybody pressure you to join. There will be a lot of emphasis on recruiting. The Direct Marketing Association advises to take a balance approach. It’s important to have customers as well as downline. There must always be a legitimate product being sold and compensation on the sale of that product.

Customers will give you the immediate income and distributors will give you the residual long term income.://www.directselling.org/career.stm

MLM Network Marketing Training- Will Seminars Get You Clients?

October 11, 2009 by Doug Firebaugh Leave a Comment

MLM Network Marketing Training- Will Seminars Get You Clients?

More Articles by C.J. Hayden
I often suggest public speaking as a powerful way to show prospective Network Marketing clients what you can do. Many professionals and consultants have built successful practices by giving free presentations to associations, businesses, and educational institutions. But what about producing your own MLM seminar, where you arrange the logistics and invite the guests? Does this work as a strategy for landing clients?

Offering a Success Seminar can be an effective means to become more visible to your target market. If you are a good (or even fair) presenter, and the right people come to your seminar, you will definitely get new customers. But to use seminar marketing successfully, you need to be very clear on your goals, and plan each seminar carefully.

The MLM Purpose.

If the purpose of your seminar is primarily to get clients, you shouldn’t be expecting to make money on the seminar itself. You may wish merely to cover your expenses, or maybe even spend a little extra. For this type of Success Training seminar, the key to making it pay off is to attract people who are good prospects for your business in the first place, rather than just filling the room.

Instead of making your MLM Success Seminar free, it’s a good idea to charge a small fee. That way, your prospective clients will perceive you as offering something of value. The fee will also discourage attendance by people who can’t afford your product or service. It’s the quality of the participants that matters, not the quantity.

If what you really want is for your seminar to turn a profit, you must recognize that by offering full-fee seminars, you are adding another line of business to your company. Operating as a seminar producer will require the same kind of planning and ongoing management as your existing business does.

It can be as difficult to make a profit on your first seminar as it was to originally launch your business. Many people won’t sign up for a seminar the first time they see it; others would like to come but can’t make the date. You’ll have a better chance of making money if you plan at the outset to offer your seminar on a regular basis. You may find, though, that this takes away too much time from your core business.

Promotion in Network Marketing

Whether the seminar you are planning is promotional or for profit, estimate your projected income and expenses before making a commitment to proceed. Base the income you project solely on the fee you will charge per person multiplied by the number of attendees you expect. Don’t include any projected spinoff business in your income estimate. If you land new business, you will still have to work additional hours to earn that compensation.

Typical expenses include design and printing of a flyer or brochure, postage, posting a notice on your website, purchase of mailing lists (if you don’t have your own), print and Internet media ads (including calendar listings), facility rent, audiovisuals, handouts, and refreshments. You should also consider the cost of your own time to design promotional materials, compile lists, compose e-mails, and make phone calls, as noted below.

In designing a snail mail or e-mail campaign for your Success Seminar, keep in mind that it is quite typical to get only one registration for every 100 pieces you mail, even with a pre-qualified list.

Subtract your projected expenses from your income, then make a rational decision on whether to proceed. If the purpose of your seminar is to get business, estimate how much spinoff business is likely. Before going ahead, ask yourself if there might be an easier or cheaper way to get that many new clients or contracts.

Making Money in MLM.

If your purpose is to make money, divide your expected profit by the number of hours it will take you to design, market, and deliver your seminar. Is that amount a reasonable level of compensation for you?

If your best guess at the numbers tells you that producing a seminar makes good business sense for you, go for it! Because people do business with those they know, like, and trust, seminars can help you build a solid client base. And because repeat contacts raise awareness, mailings and ads about your seminar will generate more visibility for your core business.

MLM Network Marketing Training- 10 Ways To Indirectly Get To The Top Of Search Engines

October 9, 2009 by Doug Firebaugh Leave a Comment

MLM Network Marketing Training- 10 Ways To Indirectly Get To The Top Of Search Engines
By: Kim Beardsmore

There are millions of web sites trying to get listed in the top 20 spots of the major search engines. That amounts to a lot of competition! I say if you can’t get listed at the top, indirectly get to the top.

How do you do this? Look up the top 20 web sites on the major search engines under the keywords and phrases people would find your MLM web site. The key would be to then advertise on those web sites.

The most expensive way would be to buy ad space on those Network Marketing web sites. If you don’t want to spend any money, you could use the ten strategies below. These strategies may not apply to every web site.

1. Participate on their discussion boards. You could post questions, answer other peoples questions, and join in on conversations. Just include your signature file and link at the end of your messages.

2. Ask the web site owner if they would like a free ebook to giveaway to their visitors. You could have them link to your web site or include your ad in the free ebook.

3. Submit content to their MLM web site. You could write articles for their web site and include your resource box and link at the end of the article. If they publish it, you’ll indirectly be at the top of the search engines.

4. Write an excellent article review of their web site, products or services. Then publish the review on your web site. E-mail the web site owner and tell him or her about it. They may link to your web site so their visitors read it.

5. Ask the owner of the web site if they would want to trade advertising. If you don’t get as much traffic as they do, you could throw in some extra incentives.

6. Propose a cross promotion deal with the web site. You both could promote each others products or services together in one package deal. This means a mention and link back to your web site.

7. Give the web site a testimonial for their MLM product or service. Include a little text link for your web site with the testimonial. You never know; it could end up on their ad copy.

8. Post your advertisement on their free classified ad section on their Network Marketing web site. You want to be sure you have an attractive headline so they will read your ad.

9. Post your text link on their free-for-all links page. You want to go back and post your link regularly so it stays towards the top.

10. Sign their guest books. You could leave a short compliment about their web site on their guest book. Just include your signature file and link at the end of your message.

MLM Network Marketing Training- Perseverance is the Secret to MLM Success

October 9, 2009 by Doug Firebaugh Leave a Comment

MLM Network Marketing Training- Perseverance is the Secret to MLM Success

Helga’s first try at establishing her jewelry store failed. After re-evaluating her experience, she opened another jewelry store. Helga is now the proud owner of three successful stores.Helga didn’t fail in her first attempt. Failure occurs when we quit or stop trying. Especially in Network marketing.

Helga has perseverance – “stick-to-itiveness.”Perseverance is the key to success. After thousands of efforts to make the electric light bulb, Thomas Edison said, “I haven’t failed, I’ve identified 10,000 ways that it doesn’t work.” Mario Lemieux, Helen Keller, Abraham Lincoln, Marie Curie and an endless list of other great MLM achievers found that success inevitably arrives for everyone who perseveres.

Acquiring a desired job or promotion, or succeeding at business may present difficulties. But this is part of the learning process. Ultimately, people who persevere become successful. They learn from mistakes.Do you persevere? Or, after meeting rejection or difficulties, do you quit?

Test Your Perseverance Quotient

Rate yourself – on a scale of one to three, one being low and three being high – on each of the following:

I believe in myself. I have clear career goals. I address my limitations. I bounce back from disappointment. I have the stamina to persist. My family and friends support me in my pursuit of goals. I can adapt to change. I focus and complete projects. My goals are consistent with my purpose and values.
I can take unpopular actions when I believe I’m right.

Add your scores. The higher your score, the more perseverant you are.

Tips for Persevering

Clarify your goal. Base it on your mission/passion, needs and abilities. Know why you want your goal and how you and others will benefit.
State your goal in the present. Write desired outcomes, what you want to accomplish. Be detailed, specific, positive.

Intend to achieve you goal. Outline goal, strategies and timeline for your home business. Know resources that can help you attain your goal, such as people, associations and the Internet. Break the goal into small steps, working backward form your desired outcome and achievement date.

Develop support systems. Meet regularly with positive, encouraging people who support your goals and celebrate your achievements. Select other sources of positive reinforcement such as books or tapes with uplifting themes.

Choose productive attitudes and behaviors. Don’t dwell in the past, worry about what might happen or view yourself as a victim.

Maintain optimism. Reinforce the positive in yourself and others. Expect good things. Watch self-talk. Replace negative thoughts or statements with positive ones. Keep a diary of each day’s good experiences.

Focus on what you can do. Acknowledge your accomplishments. Judge your accomplishments against personal standards of self-improvements.

Have the courage of your convictions. Don’t change for others or compare yourself with others.

Develop the will to risk. Don’t fear mistakes. Ask: ‘What’s the worst that can happen?’ Decide whether you could live with the worst or take steps to reduce the chance of it happening.

Research your goal to reduce negative outcomes. For example, interview successful people who have achieved similar goals in MLM. Learn from their mistakes.

Live in the present. Don’t worry about what might happen. View mistakes as opportunities to grow in Network Marketing.

Let go of attachments. The more attached you are to something, the greater the fear of losing it.

Maintain a healthy lifestyle. Care for you mind, body, emotions and spirit. Schedule quiet times to think and reassess. Practice stress relievers such as deep breathing, exercise, meditation. Get sufficient sleep, eat healthy. Take time for fun and friends.

Practice imagery. Imagine yourself living your goal today. Hold your desired outcome firmly in your mind. See, smell, touch and hear aspects of your goal. Each morning upon rising, review your goal. Repeat the process at night.
Persist. Focus on goals daily. With every “no” of defeat you’re closer to a “yes” of success. If you learn from set-backs and stay on course, success will follow. Every day, at regular intervals, ask yourself whether your activities are helping you attain your goal.
Believe you’ll attain your goal. Persevere. When your mind, emotions and activities focus on your goal, you can achieve the extraordinary.

MLM Network Marketing Training- 7 Keys to Effective MLM Online Prospecting

October 9, 2009 by Doug Firebaugh Leave a Comment

MLM Network Marketing Training- 7 Keys to Effective MLM Online Prospecting

As a seven year student of Network Marketing I’ve had great success with online prospecting. After more than two years of trial and error I’ve come up with seven key points that’ll make your prospecting efforts more effective.

KEY #1 – USE A “GENERIC” PROSPECTING WEB SITE

Why a generic site and not your company’s site? Simply put, you can’t effectively offer your opportunity as a solution to a prospect’s problems until AFTER you know what those problems are. Let me explain… As Network Marketers we believe that our industry can offer financial freedom and time freedom to those with a great enough desire.

But, we also know that if a person doesn’t have strong and compelling reasons to get involved, they’re just not at the right time in their lives to have much chance of success. Look for and visit some generic MLM online prospecting sites.

Choose one that forces YOU to revisit the reasons you joined your company. Choose a site that you feel will pull a deep emotional response from a visitor. A good online prospecting site will do that and more. It will act as a “filter” causing those not yet ready to click out, and compel those who are to take action and inquire about what you have to offer.

KEY #2 – PROVIDE A FORM TO CONDUCT AN INTERVIEW

From my experience I have found that the greater the emotional response, the more information she will be willing to give you about herself. And the time to get that information is RIGHT NOW! Your prospect has just emotionally confronted the problems she is experiencing in her life. She hopes you can help her. Now is the time to ask her questions and LOTS of them. Her answers will show you exactly how to present your opportunity as a solution to her specific problems.

Therefore, the online prospecting web site you choose MUST have a response form that asks her questions that will provide you with the information you need. Preferably, this form should be set up in the form of an “interview” and ask PROBING questions. Aside from the basic information you’d always ask for (name, address, etc.), here’s a few examples:

–Does she have large credit card debt? How much? -What would an extra $500 per month mean to her? -What would she buy with the extra money? -How much time could she devote to a business? -What about her would make her a good candidate for owning and running a home business? -How would she feel to have more free time? -What would she do with it? -Does she have children? How many? -What is her current occupation? -Does she like it? -Has she ever owned a business before?

This kind of response form can be a further filter for sorting good prospects from bad, as well as good from great. A person willing to give every piece of information you ask for is a good prospect. The form should also provide text area for “Additional Comments”. The really great prospects (the ones for whom the time is exactly right) will use this area to share exactly what they want to change in their lives and WHY.

KEY #3 – YOU MUST MAKE PERSONAL CONTACT WITH HER

While the Internet is the perfect medium for online prospecting of potential Network Marketers, it’s also a very impersonal place. And we all know that our business is built on “personal relationships”. So, when someone fills out a response form from your site do yourself a great big favor – CALL HER! This ONE thing alone will separate you from EVERY other online prospecting web site she’s visited before. (And believe me, she’s visited many!).

And your call has another very positive effect on her. She’ll feel that what you have to offer may also be real and worth her consideration. The call should be very short, but friendly and courteous. Just introduce yourself and tell her you are following up on the “interview” she submitted at your web site. Use this call to verify that the email address she gave you is correct. While making this call DON’T try to recruit her or bombard her with your opportunity. And don’t answer questions about your opportunity. Now is not the time. You keep control of the conversation. DO inform her what the next step is….

KEY #4 – AUTOMATE A POWERFUL PRESENTATION

Your next step can be whatever you currently do with offline MLM prospects. Send her to a nearby opportunity meeting, company web site, etc. But, the true power of online prospecting is in the use of email. I use a “smart autoresponder” to automatically send out a series of emails to present my network marketing opportunity.

The emails are set up to go out at different intervals depending on what was presented in each email. All I have to do is enter the prospect’s name and email into the system. The KEY for these follow-up emails is that they be personalized. They must appear like you wrote each and every one of them specifically for her. You must use her name often and like she is an old friend.

KEY #5 – PERSONAL FOLLOW-UP

After there has been enough time for her to have reviewed the email presentation make a personal follow-up call. The follow-up call is the perfect time for a three-way with your upline or another mentor. The third-party lends credibility to you and your opportunity. It also let’s her know you’re serious, that you care, and are ready to help.

Pay special attention to the few MLM prospects who contact you DURING your presentation process. These people are showing you they’re motivated and are likely ready to join your program! Without exception, I have sponsored EVERY prospect who contacted me during my email series. And every one of these people are “a step ahead” of the rest of my downline. Call these people immediately and answer their questions. Then SPONSOR THEM!

KEY #6 – TIMING, TIMING, TIMING!

The personal contact phone call, the email presentation, and the follow-up call all need to happen quickly. Again, it is important to remember that your online prospecting web site caused an emotional response that got your prospect to fill out the response form. Don’t let that emotion die. The personal contact phone call should happen within 24 hours of receiving the prospect’s interview. Your MLM presentation needs to get into her hands immedi

ately. If you’re using an info-packet, send it overnight. If you’re using email start them immediately.

The follow-up is not quite as critical (unless she contacts you first). Your prospect needs ample time to get through the information. Since my email series takes about a week to be complete, I wait around 10 days. My sponsor and I make calls one evening a week. I follow up on my own with those we can’t reach on that night. When I get an answering machine I ALWAYS leave a message. You will be surprised how many people are screening their calls and pick up when you mention your online prospecting web site. If they actually aren’t at home I want them to know that I am trying to reach them.

KEY #7 – CONTINUE FOLLOWING UP

Don’t take anyone off of your list. If the timing wasn’t right for her now, it might be in the future. Put all your prospects into an email file and send them updates and information periodically. Keep an open eye for good information on Network Marketing, your company press releases, and your company’s new product launches.

Compose friendly and short emails and send them out to your list periodically. Every now and then someone on your list will stick their head up and join your program. Remember not to SPAM. If someone requests that you stop sending info remove her from your list immediately.

CONCLUSION — Network Marketing via the Internet provides a way for many people to overcome obstacles that have prevented their p

ast success in our industry. Prospecting, recruiting, and duplication has never been easier than with the automation made available via the Net.

By the way, are you wondering why I write in the female gender? My experience shows me that women out-number men about 4 to 1 when it comes to looking for home based business.

MLM Network Marketing Training-Killer Copy: Words That Are Like Magnets to Money in MLM

October 9, 2009 by Doug Firebaugh Leave a Comment

MLM Network Marketing Training-Killer Copy: Words That Are Like Magnets to Money in MLM

by David Garfinkel

I’ll never forget what my accountant said five years ago when he saw the ad I wrote for my services: “How much did you drink before you wrote this?”He was kidding. But he just couldn’t believe anyone in their right mind would write such a bold and outrageous ad for their own writing, consulting and speaking services, as I had.Well, I spent $300 on that ad — $200 to run it in a local trade association directory, and $100 to have it reprinted as a flyer.

The following year, that $300 ad turned into $12,341 in new business for me. And $12,341 was just a tiny fraction of my total business that year.Why did I make so much money myself while there were so many thousands of “starving writers” in the world of MLM?

The answer may surprise you. You see, it’s not because I’m a better writer. It’s not my schooling. Not my resume. Not any talent I was born with.It’s all because I learned how to write “killer copy.”

How do you write killer copy?You start your killer copy with an emotion-packed opening statement that will get the attention of your reader. This opening statement may be:* a headline * an opening sentence * a subject line on an email * the header on a Web page… or for that matter, the opening words in a telemarketing script, radio commercial, or TV spot.

What’s important is that you understand – your first words count for everything… because you must captivate peoples’ imagination with those words in order to keep their attention in Network Marketing.

Here are examples of opening statements from actual successful marketing pieces:

a) “Take the luxury vacation of your dreams at a reduced cost because of this special offer” (from a travel agency’s letter to business owners.)

b) “How to stop overwhelm before it stops you” (from a personal coach’s ad aimed at stressed-out overachievers)

c) “Why almost every financial statement in family court may not disclose the full net worth of the opposing spouse” (from an investigator’s sales letter to divorce lawyers.)

Then, after your emotion-packed opening statement, you just

a) Make a promise

b) Back it up with convincing proof and

c) Ask for action.

Let’s look at how you do each of those three techniques.

1. Make a promise. The letter about luxury vacations starts with these words:”Imagine taking your winter vacation knowing you aren’t spending a penny more than you have to-secure that you have a team of travel experts making sure every little detail of your vacation goes smoothly. “Here’s how you can have that vacation right now: Take advantage of an unusual promotion our company is doing. Let me explain.”Pretty exciting, right? Even if you don’t think so, the people who got the letter did – because the letter produced an amazing $5 million in sales for the travel agency.

2. Back it up with convincing proof. The personal coach’s ad for stressed-out overachievers, the one that begins “How to stop overwhelm before it stops you,” contains this proof:* 3 case studies, * 3 testimonials, * detailed credentials of the coach * and a money-back guarantee.Despite its stunningly bold claims, the ad comes across as very believable and has generated a record-breaking parade of new clients.

3. Ask for action. The investigator’s sales letter to divorce lawyers, beginning “Why almost every financial statement in family court may not disclose the full net worth of the opposing spouse,” ends this way:”I would like to meet with you at no charge to show you how I can be of service to you and your clients in future family law cases.”Please call me at your convenience so we can set up a meeting to discuss further how I can assist your clients recover their fair share of assets. Call me directly at xxx – xxx-xxxx.”

Killer copy in Network Marketing always asks for action in the most powerful way possible. Notice how the above words spell out exactly what to do, and even make a big promise – that the lawyer reading the letter will recover more money in court for their clients (and, therefore, get more money themselves).

As you can see, a few words of killer copy can lead to massive amounts of money. In fact, many people say writing killer copy is the single most valuable money-making skill in the world.And recently, writing copy was named as one of the top 10 emerging professions for the new century.It doesn’t surprise me.

In the age of the Internet, the old style of advertising copy — saying something clever, and hoping people remember – just doesn’t cut it anymore.Besides, these days, with business-to-business advertising growing so fast, the traditional advertising industry is feeling a lot of pressure for ads that really produce results.

Why? Because, old-style advertising that entertains, but does not sell, is not cost-effective enough for many companies in today’s hyper-competitive market.Recently I heard from my former accountant. (A few years ago, he left accounting to start a new business.)He asked me if I wouldn’t mind sharing some ideas on how he could write killer copy for his own business.I said sure. And now he’s on his way to doing the same thing that I do, for himself.

Funny thing about the conversation we had the other day. Maybe he finally realized that when it comes to increasing your income, killer copy is serious business in MLM.

David Garfinkel is widely recognized by many “marketing gurus” as their secret weapon. That is, he is known as “The World’s Greatest Copywriting Coach”; because, he can, like no other, teach you how to turn words into cash. David is also the author and narrator of Killer Copy Tactics, the Web’s first and only totally interactive audio/visual learning system for writing killer sales copy. http://www.roibot.com/kc.cgi?IM6502_bsn

MLM Network Marketing Training- The Ten Commandments of WILDFIRE MLM Recruiting

October 9, 2009 by Doug Firebaugh Leave a Comment

MLM Network Marketing Training- The Ten Commandments of WILDFIRE MLM Recruiting

What is an MLM “WildFire?

It is a Fire that is out of control, and consumes anything in it’s path. That is the type of recruiting you need….WildFire Recruiting. Blazing, Hot, and OnFIRE with Focus, Purpose, Passion, and Power. Ignite a WildFire in your group and watch your Recruiting go WILD! Here the “Ten Commandments for WildFire Recruiting!”

1)”Thou Shalt Make the Prospect Comfortable.” You must make the prospect comfortable quickly, and keep them in a comfortable state of mind. How do you do that?

Simple. You must be comfortable with what you are doing, and showing no pressure at all in your conversation, and keeping it warm and friendly in what you say and do. And keep talking about them, what interests them and what they are looking for. People are comfortable talking about what interests them, not you.

2)“Thou Shalt keep the Conversation Focused on the Prospect.” The prospect is listening to a particular radio station – KIA-AM. It is a VERY important radio station to the prospect.

It is radio “Keep It All About Me”.

You must keep the Network Marketing conversation focused on what they want to see happen in their life, and their future. Focus on them and them only, and continue to ask questions and keep a “TINY” focus- “Their Interests Not Yours!” It’s ALL about the prospect. Keep your focus on them.

3)“Thou Shalt Build Trust.” If the prospect does not trust you, than you will not recruit them. You MUST get them to trust you, as this is one of the cornerstones of recruiting. Come across as “agenda-less” and no motives, except to see if your business is something they would want to explore. And operate in total integrity.

If you don’t, it will catch up with you. Keep their life in focus, not yours. If you do, your business will become a greater focus to the prospect.

4)“Thou Shalt Hear the Prospect, not just Listen.” Many people listen to an MLM prospect, but few hear the prospect. The prospect will tell you all you need to know to recruit them, if you hear what they are saying. Listening is processing the words, but not the meaning and emotions. Most people are too busy thinking what they are going to say next, to ever hear a prospect.

“Would you please tell me what you meant by that? That was interesting…” or “Tell me what you are really are looking for in life…” are good statement for hearing. Those that listen with the ears have shallow listening…those that listen with the heart and to the emotions, have Success Listening, and actually hear the prospect with a depth that is Magnetic to Success.

5)“Thou Shalt Take the Pressure off the Prospect.” So many folks in this industry, have a tendency to put some form of pressure on the prospect thinking that will help motivate them. It doesn’t. Pressure is a sure way of pushing the prospect away, and their defenses going up.

Take the pressure off with a “Pressure Valve” phrase, like “I am not sure this is something that is right for you or not.” “Or, I am not sure this would be a fit for you….” These simply take the pressure off, and show the prospect that you “…only want what is best for you and your family”.

Secrets to Becoming a Recruiting Magnet”

6)“Thou Shalt Connect with the Prospect and They Must Connect with You.” Connection is the secret to getting the prospect moving towards you psychologically. It is the process of asking questions, and finding things that you have in common, you can relate to, you can share, you both agree with, etc.

The more that a prospect feels connected to you, the more that your recruiting magnetism is growing. “You and I have some things in common…” “I can relate to that!” “I totally agree with you…” are Connecting Phrases for Recruiting. It is a fact that who people feel connected to, they listen to closely, because they feel comfortable with them.

7)“Thou Shalt Paint Word Pictures in Full Color.” We think in pictures. When you think, you actually “see” an image in your mind, and that picture becomes a thought. Your prospect thinks that way too. And if you are giving them only details and facts, then it is not going to set their dreams in motion. You must “paint them there” in their dream,on the canvass of their mind with your words and emotions.

“Imagine the feeling of….” “Can you see yourself…?” “How would your family enjoy…” “What would happen if you really did achieve this..?” “I can see you living in that home…can you?” Find out what the prospect wants to happen in their life that is not happening, then “paint them there” in their mind with your words. Your words are the brush strokes on the canvass of their mind, and your emotions are the colors. Paint a picture of Success, in High Achievement Technicolor.

8)“Thou Shalt Pour Out Hope, not Hype.” “Pouring out” is an art that Successful people and MLM Leaders have mastered. It is simply taking the best of your emotions, and pouring them into a person with your words, caring and belief. Hope is the “Master Product” in Network Marketing. Many people are so focused on getting the prospect excited, they forget that Hope is more powerful than hype.

Hype comes from the head, and Hope comes from the heart. One is heard, and the other is felt. Pour out with your words and emotions the Power of Hope for a better future, income, and lifestyle. As your pour in, the prospect will begin to pour out their heart, and you will know the truth of what they are hoping for in life.

9)“Thou Shalt have Something FOR the Prospect, not want Something FROM the Prospect.” Many times, we come to the prospect, and we have a “dollar bill stuck on our foreheads.” We have our hands mentally reaching for their wallet, and also for their contact list. The prospect can feel this very quickly. You must not approach a prospect with your hand out mentally empty, as if asking for a crumb of bread. You must have your hand out filled with Hope, Dreams, Success, Fulfillment, and an Incredible Lifestyle, ready to give that to them.

If you do, you will have a radically different mind set. One is a “taking mindset” and the other is a “giving mindset.” The prospect will ALWAYS be drawn towards a GIVING mindset, not a taking one. Have the Gift of Success and Lifestyle ready to give your prospect, not the desire to take something from them. “For you” will always have more power than “From you” in recruiting.

10)“Thou Shalt Not Be Emotionally Attached to the Result.” So many times, we get discouraged, and down, when the results of our recruiting efforts do not align with what we want to happen. Our emotions kick in, we start doubting ourselves, and what we are doing, and fear starts to creep in…the Fear of Failure.

Then you get so discouraged, you end up giving up. This happens because your emotions were controlling you, not you controlling your emotions. You must step back from the results, as you must understand that many people are too busy living their life to ever put more life in their living. Timing may not be right.

They may be totally happy where they are in life. They are not saying no to you, but to themselves. Don’t get emotionally attached to the possibility of your prospect enrolling until they have given you reason to. Discouragement is a result of your emotions dominating reality.

Reality is, there are more people out in the world who are looking for you, then you could ever imagine. Go talk to them, and bless them with your MLM business, instead of being bound and imprisoned by the chains of negative emotions.

Blessings…
