Success in Any MLM - The 3 Basic Tools For Success

Most network marketers have all kinds of specialized "tools" to help them be more productive. When it comes down to life, everyone needs food and water, clothing and shelter. When it comes down to network marketing there are also 3 basics needs.Computer and Internet Service:If you're going to be a truck driver, you need a reliable truck. If you're going to be a network marketer, you need a reliable computer and internet service. You don't need to spend thousands of dollars on a computer will all the bells and whistles. An average expense of $1,000 to $1,500 will, in 99% of the time, give you more computer "power" than you will ever use.The internet, however, is another story. The faster, the better! If you have ANY opportunity to get the internet via your cable service, take it! Most cable companies will offer a "digital plan" with your cable programming, and the time savings, (waiting for those web pages to load), is worth the money.You don't have cable yet... Keep reading. You may decide on that installation tomorrow.Telephone:All marketers need a telephone, and most have unlimited local and long distance service. Those people in the US will need US and Canada, while those outside the US will include their local country, and if they are marking in the US, US and Canadian service.Ask you telephone supplier what an unlimited plan will cost, and then look to your internet provider for a quote. Most internet providers have a VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) package. This is where you phone is hooked up to the internet and 98% of the transmission is via the internet. Don't worry about how it works. It just works, and the cost savings can be substantial when compared to traditional telephone plans.Now that "digital" plan with your cable company, including high speed internet service and unlimited local and long distance is looking very attractive. Even if you don't watch TV, it may be worth the price.Training:You need some professional training, not only on the mechanics of network marketing, but the psychology of network marketing. Find a company who will help you set up that web site and host it for you. You don't need to have a PhD in computers to be successful. Today's new technology is no more difficult that writing an email.You will need some assistance with prospecting, basically learning how to approach those target leads and learning what to say. Then you need assistance on how to present your products and service. This takes some time to master, so be sure your training company has a lot of help available in this area.In Conclusion:Every craftsman I have ever met has had a set of "tools" they use in their profession. As a network marketer, you need to make sure your "tools" are the best you can find. Remember a "poor craftsman blames his tools", even though he was the one who bought them.
