Network Marketing: Is It Right for You?

Over 90% of all Network Marketers spend more money than they make. Of the remaining ten percent, 60%-70% make less than $500 per month.

Those are terrible odds! Did you sign up in your business so you could make less than $500 per month? I doubt it!

you probably didn't sign up to make $500 per month. More likely, you were attracted by the possibility of becoming financially independent. So what can you do to enhance your chances?

Since the majority of networkers don't make much money, the chances are pretty good that your sponsor is making less than $500 per month. Unless he or she is really savvy, they probably won't know what to say when you tell them, "I'm not interested in knocking on doors or calling family members. I want to use the internet to build my business."

Internet use has been widespread for 15 years or so, but it's just recently become a viable recruiting tool. Most MLMers are still in the Dark Ages when it comes to recruiting and technology. The majority of networkers get into an opportunity because the product they're selling had an impact on their health, their weight, or some other tangible benefit.

You sponsor might be under the impression that the way to success in your business is to "sell a lot of product". Nothing could be farther from the truth. Don't misunderstand me: you NEED to represent a good product and a reputable company. Otherwise you're going to spend a lot of time explaining why your product really doesn't work very well.

If you want a clear conscience, you need to have a product you're proud of and a company you can stand behind. The last thing you want is to discover--after you've devoted time and money to your business--that the product doesn't work and the company is a bunch of shysters.You might find yourself uninvited to family get-togethers.

In fact, I'll say something here that's almost heresy: "Your Product Is Not Important To Your Success!" Well, it's important, but it's not the be-all and end-all of your business.

People will be attracted to you as a sponsor for one of two reasons. First, you can effectively help them envision a future of financial independence rather than financial bondage and debt, and secondly, you can prove to them that you have a system they can duplicate quickly and easily.

The primary reason for new distributors failing is that they don't have a system to fall back on. The instructions they're most often given didn't work 50 years ago and they don't work now. This is the age of the Internet, but not 1 in 100 know how to use it to build a network.

Yuck! Who wants to do that? (Actually, I know someone who LOVES to do that. Thank God for Caller ID. I can avoid his calls and not hurt his feelings!)

The internet would be a perfect tool for building a downline if there was a tool that was easy to implement, affordable, and duplicatable. The truth is, that's out of the reach and skill level of the vast majority of people.

(If you're a computer pro and you also have marketing skills I hope you WILL think about creating an automated downline building system. Let me know because there's a huge market for a prospecting/recruiting system that non-techie types can use, and I'll be the first!)

The best system I've found is a two-part system. Part one is Mike Dillard's Magnetic Sponsoring. Mike's specialty is teaching the networker marketers MINDSET. Unless you have the right mindset, you're going to approach prospects the wring way. Not one MLMer in a hundred knows this vital piece.

Part Two is called MLM Lead system Pro, or "MLSP". The first part, Magnetic Sponsoring, is all about adjusting and improving your thinking so that you have the right concepts and ideas firmly in place as you begin your business. MLSP is the actual "recruiting machine" that walks you through the buiding process, step-by-step.

I've been involved in networking for quite some time. I really, truly wish I'd had Magnetic Sponsoring when I got started. I would be far ahead of where I am right now. Nonetheless, with this new knowledge and MLSP, I'm confident my business will skyrocket this year.
