FTHM Needs to Explain the Retention Numbers it Posts and How Does This Effect Your Business

FHTM is dealing with the Commissioner of Securities and Insurance of the Office of the State Auditor of Montana. It is said that there are three other Attorney Generals dealing with distributors in FHTM are operating outside the policy and procedures of the company. Not a lot of data to what the reps did, but for the attorney generals to be going after the company, they must have a basis for some unethical practices.Now, if you are in FHTM, this can derail your business. It may prevent some people from joining your business, because they may be worried that it could be shutdown. Now, I would say, that most likely, the distributors will be reprimanded and may lose their fortune.I have seen in the past where reps that are scrambling to survive, start to make income claims and tell people that they can achieve the same, even when the claims are unfounded. This is where I will tell you that if you are looking at Fortune Hi-tech or another MLM company, you can not make promises or count on anything that people say on how much money they made.You do not know what that person had to do to make the incomes they said and how fast. I will tell you that if you know, no matter what the people say, who cares, that money is not in your account. At that point it does not matter. If that is why you got into a company, then that was the wrong reason and you will most likely be disappointed. However, here is what you have to do to be successful, no matter if it is this company or another company, you must get people to pay for and consume products. If no one is consuming, then why would anyone be paying for the product. Now, with Fortune Hi-tech, you have four areas, and 17 areas of products customers may want. Now, what product are you using and what is solving a problem for you. Now in the 17 areas, they have many products, so you want to get specific on the product that you are keying on.As an example, maybe you are excited by a product that gives you energy. This is where you may know people that have complained to you, that they feel worn down and need energy. It could be caused by a medical issue, and if you say that you are not sure if it will help them, but it gave you more energy, it may open up some marketing channels. Then, if that person uses it and it works, you can tell people with the same medical condition, that you are not sure if it will help them, but someone you know has told you that it helped them and they have the medical condition. This is where I tell people, target your market, find customers and make them happy. When they have a belief in the products, then tell them that you can save them money. This is the way master marketers build their businesses. Now, if these concepts are new, or you want to be taught how to market, when a marketer is successful, they will share secrets with you. Find a marketer willing to teach you and share information with you. I will tell you that I joined EzineArticles so I could help marketers like you and help so that you do not get into trouble building your business.

How to Start a Home Business

The first thing you must do is define the criteria you have for a successful home based business. So many people start looking at opportunities before they get clear on what their criteria is for home business success.There are many businesses available which label themselves as a home based business when in fact they require you to be on the road doing presentations, demonstrations, and hotel meetings. In reality they are pretty much a second shift job.Some businesses require you to stock pile products at your home, while others require you to spend time ordering products, receiving those products, sorting the products, and then there is the arduous task of delivering the products to all your customers. Some even require you to deal with returns from the end customer as well. All this takes time and your income can only grow to the extent you can speed up your ordering, receiving, sorting, and delivering processes. Where is the leverage in this type of business? You must ask yourself, is that really what you want to spend your time doing?You must really understand what is required to be successful in the business (before you start the business) and compare that to your criteria which you have clearly documented. Only when there is a good match between what is required and your predetermined checklist should you continue with your due diligence.Also make sure you understand how you get paid. Some companies hold your money for a month or more while others pay you in vouchers and expect you to sell the vouchers to get your money. You are in business to make money, so make sure you understand how and when you get paid. Make sure there is significant leverage in your compensation plan, otherwise you are just trading time for money which is also known as a job. Also understand the company charge back policy. Some companies will take money back from you (charge back) even after a year or more.Another area to focus on, is it an easy to start home business. The ease with which you can start your business, have it up and running, and talking with customers is important. This will give you a good look at the tools and support the company will provide to you and is a good measuring stick for quality as well.

What Does it Mean to Be Coachable?

What does it mean to be "coachable" in MLM, and why is it important?One of the many disagreements I had with my sponsor in a former MLM business involved duplication and being coachable. He was telling me about the approach of a very successful person in our company, and one of the things she would do is call her new distributors daily to check in with them. I told him I could never call people that often unless they asked me to, because I consider that to be harassment!I have always been a self-starter and a hard worker, and in my former career I was both a team leader and a supervisor. I was accustomed to being left alone to do my job, and in truth most of my supervisors could not have told me how to do my job even if they wanted to! When I wanted to learn how to do something new, I would enroll in a seminar or read a book or manual. If something did not work as I understood it to, or if I needed help, I would ask. It never occurred to me until recently that some people don't operate the same way!My sponsor said that since he wanted to be just as successful as this other person, he thought he needed to do exactly what she was doing (and suggested I follow suit!) But that didn't sit well with me so I continued doing things my own way. Then my sponsor won a contest and went on a cruise with many leaders in the company (that lady included) and there were several educational presentations given. To his amazement, he heard several different approaches. This confused him! He truly thought all of the leaders must be doing the same things.What I now know, is that I could not duplicate what this woman was doing because of my personality type. As I observe more and more people with this understanding, I see that most people tend to assume that in order to duplicate their success anyone they coach must exactly mirror their actions. Yet each of the four personality types has definite strengths and weaknesses. While it is good to try to improve upon your weaknesses when possible, it is really much easier to figure out how to achieve the same result using your strengths!What I now think being coachable means is:
Learn about the personality types and identify yours
Find several people who have achieved what you want
Learn their strategies and understand why it works for their personality type
Pick the strategies that will work for YOU!
Everyone is actually a blend of all four personality types. Just because you are a "green" that doesn't mean you can't use some of the strategies a "blue" would use. If a particular strategy doesn't feel "wrong" to you, try it. Constant personal growth is something we should all strive for. But do not think for one minute that you must do everything exactly the same way as your sponsor or mentor in order to succeed! Do NOT believe them if they tell you that!There are certain traits that anyone who wants to be really successful should develop and certain weaknesses they should overcome. Napoleon Hill does a great job of discussing this in chapter 7 of "Think And Grow Rich." And there are certain things everyone who desires success in MLM should do, such as:
Find a mastermind group of mentors
Attend company events
Dial in to conference calls and participate (speak up!)
Work on your business consistently
Work on self development consistently
Use third-party validation
Point people to resources, don't be the expert all of the time
Some of these will be outside the comfort zone of some people, so they need to work up to doing it! If you do it, guess what, your team members will too! But in some cases they will need a different approach and it may take them longer to grow into certain behaviours.Whenever you want to accomplish something new, it is advisable to coached and mentored. Just recognize that not everyone gets to the top by the same road!Wouldn't the world be boring if we were all the same?

Agel? A Solid Income Opportunity Or Just More Hype?

Agel shipped it's first products in May of 2005 with hopes of shaking up the entire MLM industry with it's first to market suspension gel technology nutritional products. Right out of the gate they had a product that was very unique, as a matter of fact, it had never been seen before in the network marketing industry. There are 3 key factors that have the BIGGEST influence on whether a company like Agel will be or is a solid income opportunity for you, or just hype. This Agel review is dedicated to giving you those facts.Factor #1. Leadership. With over 18 years in network marketing, visionary CEO and the brains behind Agel, Glen Jensen was able to secure Financial Backing from Alan Ashton, multi-billionaire and the creator of "Word Perfect." Glen was also able to attract MLM legends Randy Gage and Eric Worre To Agel as part of the field leadership team. Agel has the leadership.Factor #2. A UNIQUE and Consumable Product. Having a Unique and Consumable product is vital to the success of any network marketing company. Does Agel have a Unique and Consumable Product? Lets take a look. Agel is the first MLM company to market suspension gel nutritional products. In other words, they are the first to offer vitamins and nutrients that are suspended in a gel. They are also portable (Gel Packs) and they require no water to be taken. A few of Agel's products are EXO, FIT, GLO, OHM, UMI, MIN, HRT, CAL, PRO and FLX. I think it's safe to say, Agel has unique products to offer to the market place but is it something people would want and buy?Factor #3. Timing. World renowned and respected economist and author, Paul Zane Pilzer predicts that the health and wellness industry will reach 1 TRILLION dollars in 2010. Despite the tough economic climate in 2007, Health and Nutritional Sales in the US grew 10.7% to $93.9 billion.As I write this Agel review the unemployment rate is still at a record high 10%. Employers are now finding ways to get more done with less employees. Now more than ever people are looking for ways to supplement their incomes, replace their incomes and then you have the millions who have lost jobs and have to start over. There has never been a better time to offer people an opportunity like Agel to take care of their Health and Finances. Based on the information above, I think we can safely say that Agel, is in fact a solid income opportunity. So what does that mean for you? Not Much! Let me explain.At the end of the day, Agel is just a company, companies don't build themselves, and products don't sell themselves. People fall on their faces in MLM, regardless of their products, companies, or compensation plan because they simply do not KNOW how to market, or build their businesses FIRST. As a matter of fact I fell flat on my face when first getting started in network marketing but I didn't quit. As an entrepreneur, it is imperative that you EDUCATE yourself first and foremost, to develop yourself, and to ALWAYS be learning and growing.In closing, I'd like to leave you with this final thought. Your company can have the most revolutionary products, top notch Leadership and the most innovative compensation plan, they are not the reason you succeed or fail in this industry, "YOU ARE". So if you want to have true success in Agel, work harder on your Mindset (personal growth), develop your Marketing Skills and you will and you will be light-years ahead of most Agel reps.

iLearningGlobal Dumps MLM or Network Marketing Model

It's difficult to understand why a company would eliminate a portion of its business model - potentially losing thousands of distributors & hundreds of thousands of dollars. However, that's exactly what iLearningGlobal has done. It has shut down its network marketing division - presumably due to it not being a profitable marketing arm.iLearningGlobal.tv opened for pre-launch in July of 2008 and shut down its network marketing division in March of 2010. Capitalizing on the trend of continuing adult education via the internet made iLG appear to be an excellent opportunity with a lucrative compensation plan.iLG is not the first & will certainly not be the last network marketing company to open its doors with the best of intentions, only to be forced to shut down. No matter how good a new MLM or "start up" business may sound; there is an increased level of risk to the distributor who chooses to join a "ground floor" opportunity.The announcement that the company was disbanding their MLM division has left many distributors upset and wondering what to do next. Before you jump headlong into another network marketing company, first take the time to learn what it is you need to know to decide which company you should affiliate you good name with.Harvard Business School says you should look at these 5 things when evaluating a business opportunityThe Company - is it solid, established, likely to remain in business?
The Product - is the product going to deliver what it promises, is it good quality, can the consumer depend on it? Is the VALUE of the product greater than the cost? Are people who are NOT involved in the business, buying & using the product who are not distributors? How about retention? What are the company statistics regarding how long the average consumer (not just distributors) continues to use the product?
The Need - is there a need in the market place for the product being offered? Is there a unique market niche or is the product just one of hundreds of different supplements that can be found at the local health food store - another brand of cosmetics to compete with Revlon, L'Oreal or Estee Lauder?
The Compensation - if you're going to put your time & effort into something are you going to be paid a fair amount? How much product would you have to sell personally to recoup your investment & get into profit mode? If you're building a sales organization, how many new distributors would you need to join your team to get you "into the black"?
The Timing - now would NOT be a good time to start selling cassette tapes or vinyl records, so how does the timing look for the product or service you're considering? Are you ahead of a trend, at the wrong end of a trend or just one of lots of other companies marketing similar products?Ok, that's all fine & good for a traditional type business - what about MLM??My internet network marketing mentor says that a Successful network marketing business needs these 5 things.A product with an untapped, wide open market.
The business needs to be based on powerful, current trends.
Retention rate needs to be high if ongoing residuals are going to be strong.
The start up cost needs to be low so that the business will continue to grow.
And the comp plan better be good - it should reward not only the experienced associates, but the NEW rep as well so they can make money quickly.If the company you're considering can answer "Yes" to all of these criteria, you've probably got a real winner on your hands.

LYF Brands Review - A Review of the LYF Brands Home Business Opportunity

LYF Brands is a new network marketing company launching VERY soon that is already starting to get some serious attention from industry leaders. There are several different factors that have the biggest influence on whether a company like LYF will be able to gain some serious traction, or whether they will fail. Does LYF offer a UNIQUE product in a unique marketing position? Does the company have the right LEADERSHIP standing behind them? And more importantly do YOU have what it takes to be successful in LYF? My intention for you today is to get a BIG piece of the puzzle, so you can make an educated decision for yourself about joining LYF Brands.Once in a blue moon do you see a network marketing company come along and offer what LYF Brands is offering. Backed by a strong leadership team, big funding, scientific research development and quality products. Is it all to good to be true? LYF Brands boasts an irresistible range of nutritional and personal care products that enhance individual wellbeing. The focus is on GREEN, NATURAL, healthy living products that are not only far safer and superior, but will give other everyday household products a run for their money. Our love for environmentally safe products has become an ever increasingly popular idea that we've seen coming to market in recent times.LYF is a forward-looking company, committed to innovation, action and international expansion. Currently in the U.S and intending to make a strong global presence in 23 countries over the next 6 to 12 months. Founder and CEO, Michael Han, veteran business leader is committed to the highest standards of business ethics. Surrounding himself with top industry talent. Michael Kelly is the Chief LYF coach as an example. With 18 strong members in the leadership team they will surely have a commanding influence on the SUCCESS of the company. LYF offers leadership programmes and mentoring to help you really explode your business. These programmes are ESSENTIAL to the success of anyone starting out in the network marketing business.I think there is tremendous potential for LYF Brands. LYF Brands provide a legitimate opportunity for you to earn a solid income in the home based business industry and I believe LYF is a name that is going to be known in every household around the globe. LYF Brands appears to have all the right ingredients to be a successful network marketing company.However... I will say one more thing... and that is... that just joining LYF is not going to make you money. This is by far the biggest mistake that most people make in the network marketing industry. Any business, LYF included, is literally USELESS to the new network marketer... unless you KNOW how to market, how to generate leads, and the principals behind succeeding in this industry first.What you need to know when marketing your LYF Brands Business is how to use TECHNOLOGY to get your opportunity out to thousands of new prospects searching for LYF and your LYF opportunity. You can literally be creating HUNDREDS of fresh leads a day if you know what your doing and you have the right SYSTEMS in place. Traditional marketing methods are almost useless for 99% of the population. No one likes hassling friends or family. No more chasing Nanna to make a sale...The bottom line is, the people who are learning how to use TECHNOLOGY to grow their business, will have advantage over 99.9% of the other network marketers out there that have no idea this stuff even exists. My advice is to start using TECHNOLOGY to generate endless LYF leads and truly build your LYF business to a massive success. If you are serious about being a top earner in network marketing and truly learning how to LEVERAGE your time and energy then you need to have a system that will BLOW your business out of the ball park.

Network Marketing Tools

Network Marketing is no different. When this type of Marketing first became popular back in the 1960's, times were different. And you didn't need sophisticated tools. In today's market they are absolutely essential.The Network Marketing Tools I would recommend are:1. Web Design software: like Dreamweaver, FrontPage, or if you're on a budget, you can get a free HTML Editor software called CoffeeCup.2. Squeeze Page or Lead Capture Page: Building a network marketing business in the internet age is all about capturing the contact information of interested prospects and have them directly loaded into your autoresponder so you can follow up with them.3. Autoresponder: This is one tool that you do not want to scrimp on. Two of the top autoresponder services today are Awebber and GetResponse. This tool will allow you to stay in contact with your prospects.4. Blog: The biggest thing in this business is your creditability. The best way to build your creditability is to have your own web site or blog. In my opinion a blog is the best option. Buy your own domain name from Godaddy or any other company that sells domains and set up a WordPress Blog.5. Video Camera: Now you don't need a real expensive video camera. You could use a WebCam, FlipCam and even some digital cameras come with a video option. If you are going to use a WebCam, buy a quality one from Logitech. You camnget one of there best WebCams for around $100. The reason I am listing this as one of my necessary Network Marketing Tools because video is a major player on the Internet and if you are not using video, believe me your competition is.These Network Marketing Tools will allow you to build a powerful lead attraction marketing system.

You Need to Pick a Good Network Marketing Company to Make It - Find Out What to Look For

Let's talk about what to look for in a trustworthy company. When looking for a company or legitimate business opportunities you need to look at a company's track record. How long has it been in business?Any business that's been around for under 5 years is a risk, and any under 2 years is what I like to refer to as high risk. When we're talking about the time, effort, and even money most companies ask you to invest, why even bother with high risk investments. You will more than likely end up even more disillusioned and poorer than you are now having wasted time and effort.How much has the company grown, especially in recent years in this economic climate? This is very important because a company that has lost money could soon evaporate into thin air along with your hopes and dreams of a new start. And finally, what are the reviews. How do employees or people who are actually working in a company saying about it? Are they happy? Is it everything they thought it was going to be?Does the company have a bad history of abusing it's employees? Get on the ground level and really do your homework before investing time and money into anything you do. Don't let these economic times force you into something you know isn't a good fit for you. You are the one that is going to be doing the work everyday, make it something you know is worth your time.Find the right company and you will make yourself a ton of rapid cash, for you and your organization. Rapid cash is great when it comes because when it comes in comes in large chunks.

Choosing an MLM - 4 Simple Ideas Help You Decide the Best For You

If you are considering a home based business, you will uncover literally thousands of possible opportunities. Making the right choice can be an overwhelming task, but if you "target" your search with these 4 simple ideas, this challenge will be a lot easier.Use the product:As you are talking with new prospects, they will ask you about you own testimonial about the product or service. If, for whatever reason, you are not using the product, how can you "convince" your prospect to use it. Just imagine never owning a dog, and working with a company that markets dog food.! You may be a dog lover, but you will never have the experience and "bonding" that dog owners get with the beloved pets, and you prospect will see right through you. You need to personally use the product.Understand the product:Having an PhD in Electrical Engineering is not a requirement for marketing electronics or communications, but being able to field simple questions, especially in usage and cost about your product is a must. Good marketers don't try to have all the answers, but are not afraid to search out answers. Where can you get your questions answered quickly about your company's product when the need arises?Marketing the product:You may have a great product, but is it great in the eyes of you prospect? If you product is something that is on the minds a many people (ie cell phone service or weight loss), then the world is open to you. If this product is a "niche market" type product (ie healthy dog food), your product has a very limited scope of people. If, however, you own a boarding kennel, and your spouse is a Veterinarian, then you hold a very formidable position in the "niche" market. You need to know you potential market.Training:You absolutely need to research the amount of, and quality of the training your company has to offer. Too often these companies give you the bare minimum, relying on you inviting your friends and family. If you think you can build a business on the backs of you friends and family, you need to take a reality check. Put aside some of that startup capital and get some professional training.In Conclusion:There are just 4 very simple ideas that if you embellish them, your new marketing venture will start off on the right foot. Enjoy the trip, as a network marketing business can be very rewarding both personally and financially.

Xyngular Review - A Solid Network Marketing Business Or Just Another Watered Down Juice by Xyngular?

Xyngular. What kind of fool names a network marketing opportunity after a woodwind instrument? Okay, joking aside; what is this thing called Xyngular, and is it worth your time, effort and energy when looking for a network marketing MLM home business opportunity (a mouthful, I know, but so is Xyngular, so I'm keeping in tune with the instrument - sorry, product - itself)? Here we go on our journey to find the truth about the Xyngular MLM opportunity...Based in American Fork, Utah and brought into the world of MLM in 2009, Xyngular is the latest rising star to come from Marc Walker, founder of Xango. Marc Walker holds the honor of being one who can bring strong results with well over 15 years of Multi Level Marketing strategies under his belt.Xyngular Super Fruit X Global Blend packs a list of antioxidants, amino acids and adaptogens into one neat package with a palatable taste. The term "adaptogen" is one of the new buzzwords in the field. The job of an adaptogen is to enable your body to 'adapt' faster to stress and changes in your dietary intake of nutrients. It's obvious this product has some good grey matter used in its development. A good product is a good base to build a business on so let's see if Xyngular can pull it together in that department.Marc Walker has applied a good combination of commission matrixes to tie in the advantages of both multi-leg and single-leg styles so you have a better chance at success. In other words, if you're a good salesperson, you win. If you're a strong team builder, you win. Marc is definitely sharing his experience.I would expect Xyngular to have a few tics and twitches in their back- office because of the newness of the company. It turns out that's not the case though; Marc has tied Xyngular to its parent company which has everything you need such as various payment methods and warehousing. I've said it before and I'll say it again; a back-office makes your life a lot easier.To help you get some good momentum in the beginning, Xyngular passes on a $100 "Quick Start Bonus" and beef it up with an extra $24 for each case sold in your downline. Take advantage of this because you only have those bonuses for a month. Your commissions are broken down into individual product sales and sales by the case. Add in the 42% all the way down to 8 levels deep for a repeat client and you could clear a fairly healthy paycheck on this income stream.Becoming a leader in Xyngular has some serious opportunities in the bonus arena too. As you work your way up the ladder you have 12 separate bonus pools to access, each one being 1% of all monthly revenues. For anyone not familiar in this industry's regular bonuses, that pretty much puts the rest of the opportunities to shame! Of course, you're not going to get there over night, but with a little concentrated effort it won't take you long.Xyngular seems to be built on the concept of a helping hand. You may have the thought running through the back of your mind, "Don't they all say that"? As a matter of fact, yes they do. This time though, you're hearing it from a company (Xango) that has a proven track record. There are a multitude of products in the form of nutritional supplements; in my opinion, you're never going to know which one is the best health wise. I would put my money on a strong leader and solid but innovative practices any day of the week.

Goal Setting Strategies For the Home Based Business Owner

Goal setting is a powerful tool that is used by every successful home based business owner. Simply put, in its most basic form goal setting is an organized personal planning process. It is defined as establishing specific, measurable and time targeted objectives. Effective goal setting can separate you from the crowd who simply wander from task to task. Earl Nightingale said it best, "people with goals achieve because they know where they are going. It's as simple as that."Not only are business owners encouraged to set goals but individuals would do themselves well to practice it as well. Goal setting helps us determine our priorities and get organized. These 5 keys will help the home based business owner to avoid the pitfalls that happen to 97% of all who fail in their ventures.1) Define the Goal - The goal should be specific enough so that we know exactly what we are aiming for. If we continue to aim at nothing we will undoubtedly hit our target.2) We must outline the steps necessary to achieve the goal. The steps will help give direction to follow to achieve the goal.3) The Goals must be realistic - It makes no sense to set a goal of going to Mars when you have no money. On the other hand a goal of going backpacking to Hawaii can be obtained on a relatively small budget.4) Set deadlines - If the goals are to be realistic so to must be the deadlines. We cannot expect to head off towards our destination without a set time as to our arrival.5) We must Review and Reassess frequently. The great thing about frequent review is that this will force us to re-examine our priorities. Be ever mindful for goals that we do not achieve on time."Goals give you more than a reason to get up in the morning; they are an incentive to keep you going all day. Goals tend to tap the deeper resources and draw the best out of life." Harvey Mackay.By using these criteria when setting your goals you will give yourself the best possible chance of achieving the desired result.

A List of MLM Companies - The Top 5 Reviews

There are a lot of hard working people in MLM Home Based Businesses that are being taught that the only reason they can't make it in this business is because they aren't working hard enough. This is as far from the truth as you can get. Times have changed and marketing has changed. The best way to make it in this industry is to educate yourself in the newest Internet Marketing strategies. You have to do this on your own because your company will not teach it to you. 1. AmwayRobert DeVos founded Amway Corp. in 1959 with his friend and business partner, The late Jay Van Andel. Amway now operates in more than 80 countries and territories around the world, enabling over 3 million people to own independent businesses.According to Amway their business model is based on the Amway Business Owner Compensation Plan - a low-risk, low-cost business opportunity that is open to everyone. With an AMWAY business you are rewarded for for selling their products and for sponsoring others who do the same. As your business grows, so do your rewards. They promote Amway parties that are very time consuming and costly compared to the income being generated, especially for beginners. 2. AvonIn 1886 David H. McConnel started a business called California Perfume Company. The company name was later changed to Avon. Avon, the company for women, is the world's leading direct seller of beauty products with over $10 billion in annual revenues.Avon product lines include such recognizable brand names as Avon Color, Anew, Skin-So-Soft, Avon Solutions, Advance Techniques Hair Care, Avon Naturals, Mark, and Avon Wellness. Avon also markets an extensive line of fashion jewelry and apparel. Avon appears to be one of the more difficult MLM companies to make money with. There is an Avon lady in every neighborhood, and they have to sell a ton of products to make any money. Because of this, it is getting more difficult for associates to recruit others into their business.3. Mary KayIn 1963 Mary Kay Ash, with help from her son, Richard, created Beauty by Mary Kay, the first company dedicated to making life more beautiful for women. Since opening its first international venture in Australia in 1971, Mary Kay Inc. has expanded to more than 30 markets on five continents, with over 1.8 million independent sales associates.For $100 dollars (plus shipping and tax) You can get a start up kit that includes how-to tips and enough products and samples to share with 30 of your friends at parties. The compensation and benefits sound good at 50% sales commission but very few consultants ever make it. To make it work you have to devote at least the equivalent time as you would a full time job.4. HerbalifeHerbalife was founded in 1980 by Mark Hughes. Mark launched his company by working as the first distributor selling the nutritional product. Their products promote living a healthy lifestyle by offering you vitamins. minerals, and the essential nutrients your body needs to stay healthy, along with fitness tips and recipes.Starting a home based business with Herbalife can be a pretty easy start up and does appear to offer a good compensation plan. Recruit! Recruit! Recruit! is the only way to make a living in this company. Once your at the top the money doesn't stop flowing, but getting there is the hard part. Herbalife promotes the old school marketing methods and you would be hard pressed to find an upline leader that teaches any of the new internet marketing strategies.5.Nu SkinNu Skin was "Founded in 1984 with a commitment to providing quality skin care that features only premium, wholesome ingredients, Nu Skin remains true to this "all of the good, none of the bad" heritage today, developing innovative products that support the health and longevity of skin and hair." -NuSkin web site.Over the years they have changed their name more than any other MLM company with new divisions: Pharmanex, Big Planet and Photomax.

Nu Skin Home Based Business opportunity offers two ways to generate income, direct sales and recruiting others into the business to build a team. There are those that have climbed to the top of this MLM company and are set for life financially,but it takes nothing short of 100% dedication to make it in this company.

A good marketing strategy could put you at the top of any of these companies in a short time. But without it you will probably never get it off the ground.

MLM Lead Generation Requires Focus and a Solid Network Marketing Foundation

The best MLM companies are ones that has been in business for 2 years old, have distributor friendly policies & procedures, have many quality products, and lastly have the right compensation plan. Once you have selected a network marketing company that provides the elements above and thereby creating a strong foundation for you and your downline it is time to consider lead generation.Lead generation is not a complex process if you focus on two or three methods. There are countless methods used by network marketers to generate leads. This fact make is difficult for new marketers to stick to any one method. Lead generation is like advertising, where you are always split testing your advertising message to continually improve on results.You always need to be working two or three lead generating methods to find the one that works best for you. Focus your efforts on two at a time until you master those methods. It could be social media marketing on Facebook or PPC advertising on Google. Either method will work but you need to focus on them to get the best results.This is especially true with paid advertising like PPC. You want to fine tune your message quickly so you can get your conversion rate low enough to continue. This will normally take you 60 to 90 days depending upon the time you spend on the process and your monthly advertising budget.Most people in network marketing prefer the free marketing methods but these do take a longer to master and the time you put into these methods daily in the first few months is substantial. Even if the marketing is FREE; focus is required to decrease the length of time to success.When doing lead generation you are advised not to directly promote your business opportunity because that is what every one else does. Provide valuable content to your potential lead to give them a reason to interact with you. Once you get them to interact with you, it is much easier to get them to listen to a message about your opportunity.Remember that most people do not like to be sold, so do not approach lead generation in the same way you would direct sales. Provide the potential lead with information and content that will show them the value of working with you before showing them the value of your business. In many cases these leads will end up selling themselves if left to their own devices. It will be much easier to show them the value of the business if the company you have selected is one built on a strong foundation.A quality MLM business should be designed to provide long term residue income for you and your family, so make sure you have that type of company before generating any leads.

What Attracts Your Prospects to You?

People join a network marketing company for one reason and one reason only. To make money! It's as simple as that. If anyone tells you they have other reasons for getting into the MLM industry then they probably don't need to be starting their own home based business in network marketing. But for those of us who are not afraid to admit that our main goal in MLM is to make money, what makes us decide to join one company rather than another? Is it the products that draws a prospect? Is it the compensation plan that brings someone in? Or could it be something else that draws a prospect to a particular company?Could that something else be you? Think about this for a moment. Most legitimate MLM companies have good products. And for the most part, all companies have compensation plans that certainly favor the company, but they are in business also to make money. So if a prospect is going to join your company, it will usually be the result of how the prospect perceives you. People join a networking company because of the people that introduce them to it. If they see you as someone who is honest and trustworthy, it will be a determining factor in their getting involved. Of course the product and pay plan are factors to be considered, but they are not as important as the role you play.People are looking for someone they can trust and that will help them build a business. They know that no matter how good the products are or how well the compensation plan is, to be successful they will need to partner with a leader. If you show leadership qualities it will attract prospects. Because of this you can see how important good communication plays in getting a prospect to join you in your network marketing company. If you are unable to convey the message that it will be a benefit for them to work with you, then you will have great difficulty in building an MLM business.It doesn't matter how good the company website is at explaining the products and the compensation plan, it will be how they perceive you that will determine if they join you. You have to know your product, know your compensation plan and know how to develop a business. If you are unable to show your prospects that you can help them build a business, they will move on to the next person. Then they will move on to the next, and the next, until they find the one that they feel will help them build a successful business.Remember that it is you that will determine if your prospects will join you in your network marketing company. Know your information and be able to communicate it effectively. Be a leader and you will attract prospects into your business.

MLM and M&Ms - The Fate of the First Network Marketer

There once was a boy named Johnny in a town called Slothville. A spoiled and undisciplined little kid was he. Johnny had a sweet tooth something fierce, and loved to stuff his mouth full of candy. He especially loved M&M's, and he especially, especially loved them when he didn't have to do chores or use his own pocket money to get his hands on them. He couldn't stand the sight of others eating them when his stash had run out. So Johnny spent hours and hours cooking up ways to get the largest possible amount of the candy, with the least possible amount of effort. One way or another he was intent on lining his pockets...even if it killed others (or if it killed him, rather, as he no doubt would've pointed out).So it came to be in the Spring of '76 that scheming little Johnny started a lawn-mowing business. He rounded up 3 of his pals, and recruited them to go around the neighborhood cutting grass. He'd contract out the workers, and the customers would pay him. For every job they did, Johnny was paid 10 M&M's. 8 of these he kept (I mean, come on...the business was his idea after all), and his friends were able to keep 2 for themselves. He hastened to inform his pals though that should they manage to recruit one of their pals to cut grass as well, that he would give them 2 M&M's back for every willing little employee they hired. Bonus! Before long, Johnny's pals were recruiting their pals, and Johnny was bathing in M&M's. He had M&M's for breakfast, sneaked them inside his lunch-box to snack on at school. He was in M&M heaven...living it large off of the sweat of others.It wasn't long before every yard in the neighborhood had at least 2 kids mowing, pulling and even eating grass. Salivating lawn-mowing recruiters could be found in every classroom, locker room and living room across the town. Johnny and his 3 pals would sit in his M&M tree-house and watch the neighborhood slowly turn into a semi-desert. There were fewer and fewer lawns to mow, more and more kids doing the mowing, earning less and less M&M's than the kids before. In the end, the bulk of the kids in the neighborhood could barely put together their own M&M doghouse between themselves, and they even started mowing pets out of desperation. I wish I could say that no animals were harmed in the telling of this story, but a few cats lost their whiskers, while the kids that were recruited into this venture towards the tail-end of the exercise resorted to recruiting anything with a pulse and mowing anything with a few hairs. The scene got ugly.Little is known of what actually became of Johnny in subsequent years. There was the odd rumor or two. Best as anyone could tell, he made his way to Desperado and started his own business. He was reportedly last seen on the porch of the big house overlooking the valley, surrounded by barbed wire and electric fencing...a '76 lawn-mower rammed through the windshield of his Porsche.

Numis Network Review - Make Money While Collecting Money

As soon as I heard the expression "Make money in the business of collecting money", I started wondering what that was about, given that collecting money - or stamps, or anything whatsoever, should certainly get money out of your pockets, not into your pockets....So can there be a business out there that boasts to have the capacity to turn this the other way round?Numis Network is apparently the one not merely to claim it, but to actually get it done. And soon after reading about the company, I concluded that the phrase above is pretty correct, absolutely no overstating, no hype.Christopher Kent, one of the three founders of the business, manages, during an interview, to summarize it all: this business makes it possible for any person to generate wealth and acquire assets as an alternative to creating debt and collecting liabilities. The distinctive product that helps make this business an attraction are the gold and silver numismatic coins - which signifies, not basic bullion coins, but graded and certified collector's coins. Numis Network is actually pioneering the promotion of the coins by means of multi-level marketing. This creates double momentum actually: the timing for silver and gold investment could not be more suitably chosen, and, next, as it is the sole multi level marketing company promoting numismatic coins, you'd be breaking brand new ground with this business. This is basically why Numis Network has been spreading like wildfire ever since its launch last year.Nevertheless, even if it managed to become top rated really quickly for both of these reasons, Numis didn't stop there - these people added to their success formula additional elements: the endorsement of a numismatic sector leader and top salesman, Mike Mezack, of whom you may have already learned, as well as a very profitable compensation strategy, which has recently grown to be even more rewarding for Numis representatives. All these along with the online marketing system which will make it simple for you to promote as well as develop your business all over the internet, once you make an effort to master proper internet marketing strategies.Naturally, I was just as curious to find out who's actually powering this company. The answer is: Ian Cordell, Christopher Kent and Jake Kevorkian, three people with comprehensive expertise in the multilevel marketing industry, at a management level.In any case, it seemed to be sufficient for me only to realize that this particular company signifies three things: 1 - saving or producing your own wealth through your monthly auto-ship of silver and gold coins, whilst (2) - protecting it as a result of the collector's worth that raises as time passes, and (3) - adding up to it as time goes by by means of sales commissions, enroller bonuses, leadership bonuses as well as the residual income the compensation plan permits. I looked at additional data merely because I always look for details.Since the product is about the only one I can think of that you just cannot have too much of, and also considering that it's a product that doesn't suffer a loss of value with time (again, about the only one I could think of), I personally view it as being a perfect product. The management of the business have done all they could to develop an ideal business system around it as well, and from my perspective, they have managed successfully to do so. Of course they wouldn't have done so without the perfect timing for this particular business, which they have seized so very well. So, in order to ensure your place as a leader in front of the people in this new opportunity, you need to make sure you do something about it while it is still a brand new opportunity.

Do the Evolve Health Compensation Plan and Its Products Matter?

Evolve Health seems to have a great product with a generous compensation plan. But with my experience in the network marketing industry, I can tell you that compensation plans and products don't really have anything to do with your success. Evolve Health gives each new member a company replicated website to help market the business. A Company replicated website is not the best way to promote a business. Sure it might give your prospects information about the product and opportunity. But at the end of the day, how is a company replicated website going to separate you from the thousands of distributors in Evolve Health?This is why so many people in the network marketing industry fail. Everyone is promoting their company, products and compensation plans. People need to be promoting themselves. Marketing requires that you position yourself as a leader. When you do that, people will be more inclined to want to join you and do business with you.Think about it for a second. Why do people join network marketing organizations? It is because they feel that a network marketing company will help someone reach their goals in life. This is why they will join. A company replicated website isn't going to persuade your prospects to join your network marketing business. People will not join a business because of unique products or compensation plans.Evolve Health has a product that is backed by the University of Texas. It's founder has grown many successful companies. At the end of the day, your success with this or any company comes down to you.

MonaVie Compensation Plan - Wow!

If you've ever had dreams of bringing home $400,000 per month, or driving a black Mercedes convertible sports sedan past the homes of all the people who laughed at you when you got into MLM, checking out the MonaVie compensation plan might be something you want to do.Why?Because in it's short 5 year history, MonaVie has shattered industry records, they've dominated the Forbes list of fastest growing companies in 3 separate categories and they've produced some of the biggest checks in MLM history."How has this been accomplished?" you might ask.With the MonaVie compensation plan my friend.In a word... Lucrative.Stars and golds and diamonds, oh my!The MonaVie compensation plan is really a nice mix of up front bonus money, customer commissions and long term residual income.Since so much money has been made and records have been broken with the MonaVie Compensation plan, there have been no shortage of MLM companies who have copied this plan, hoping that they could duplicate the phenomenal results of MonaVie.So what makes this plan so special or different from the traditional plans on the market?A BLENDED APPROACHTraditionally, MLM companies have used 1 of 3 pay plans to compensate distributors for business building activities.You've got the classic matrix plan, the dreaded balancing binary, and lastly the producers paradise of a uni-level.What if you could combine all the plans into one?That's what has happened with the MonaVie compensation plan.This millionaire maker of a comp plan is what I like to call a "next generation binary". Binary because you build 2 legs as a rep.A left and a right. This seems to be the comp plan of choice for startups.Why? You might ask?It has been shown that the average person will enroll about 2 people.The matrix plan typically require 5 to fill up the front line.The unilevels have unlimited width with little spillover.The binary, however, is based on the power of 2. Enroll 2, place 1 on the left, 1 on the right and then everything else spills over in you the downline.It's simple and it's based upon something that most people can do.This has an element of the matrix plan because you only have 2 spots on your first level. After that, anyone you enroll must be placed below someone in your downline. That's the attraction of a matrix plan.Ok, so far we've covered the binary and the matrix portion of the plan. What about the unilevel?In a unilevel, everyone you personally sponsor is placed on your first generation.In the MonaVie compensation plan, they computer keeps track of all your personal sponsors and places them on your first generation (in the background). This is called the Executive Check Match.What this means is that you can earn a check match (percentage match of the binary check) on not only your personal sponsors, but their personal sponsors, and theirs, so on and so forth for quite a few generations down. Hence, the uni-level element of the plan.So you see, the MonaVie compensation plan has mixed the best of the best from all the popular plans on the market. This is definitely a contributing factor to their incredible success.WARNING!Don't be lulled in by compensation plan bait alone.The best compensation plan in the world will not pay a dime if you are not able to fill it up.The most important thing you'll need, in MonaVie or any MLM company for that matter is good marketing.If you set up a killer marketing pipeline, where you have qualified prospects coming to you on a daily basis, ready to buy your products and join your business, you can make a fortune with most any comp plan on the market.It's the marketing that really matters my friend.

Internet Network Marketing - What Are Your Basic Expectations?

People enter the world of internet networking marketing with a myriad of different basic expectations. Those expectations may be based on life experiences, aspirations, circumstances, and necessity to name a few. I will review with you some of those expectations based my experience in this business. You may want to re-assess your core reasons for entering the internet marketing business after reading this article.Many potential entrepreneurs get involved with online business opportunities with the mindset of getting financially rich quickly. Very rarely does that occur. Online marketing can not be approached with a "lottery mentality". You may get financially wealthy in this business, but it's not going to happen instantaneously. If you are considering earning a mass sum of money quickly, to alleviate your money woes, you may want to reconsider other legitimate options. Internet marketing has much more to offer other than gaining financial wealth and material objects. It is about growing and developing as an entrepreneur and as a human being. Once again if your sole purpose is to earn a lot of money quickly, you will be only cheating yourself, and you may want to consider other legitimate alternative ways of being an entrepreneur. One added point I want to convey, is that internet networking offers countless intangibles that money simply can not buy, but that is a topic for another article.What are you anticipating regarding the time, effort, and diligence regarding your business venture? You should allocate a specific amount of time to your business preferably on a daily basis, and adhere to that schedule as much as humanly possible. Your effort and diligence need to be at a consistently high level. If you are expecting to work your business whenever the urge strikes you and be lackadaisical in your effort and diligence, I seriously doubt your business will prosper.Are you expecting to work your business on a full or part time basis? Based on my experience working your business full or part time depends on your employment status. If you are operating a business or a full time employee you most likely will enter your business opportunity on a part time basis due to time constraints. If you are unemployed or working part time you may want to enter your entrepreneurial endeavor on a full time basis. You can achieve great results working your online opportunity either full or part time.Are you expecting to face hurdles, challenges, and distractions? The path of least resistance does not exist in the world of internet marketing.You may fail more times than you succeed. You may have setbacks and disappointments you did not anticipate. Are you willing to overcome those roadblocks and continue to move forward? Or will you totally acquiescence after few feeble attempts remove those roadblocks from your path to success?What are your basic expectations regarding learning and fine tuning your craft? Learning how to market your opportunity online is indispensable for your continuing success and growth as an entrepreneur. There will be a learning curve you must experience in order for your business to prosper. Are you willing to be a permanent student and commit yourself to the learning process? Will you try to re-invent the wheel, which will inevitably lead to your ultimate failure?In summary you may want to change or modify some of you core expectations if you are planning on being a successful online entrepreneur. Let's review some key points. Getting financially rich quickly very seldom happens and is not realistic. Online marketing is exponentially more than gaining financial wealth; it is also about growing as a human being and as an entrepreneur. You can expect to devote your time, effort, and diligence to your business venture. You can anticipate obstacles distractions, and failures. Learning will be a constant in your online journey. Finally you owe to yourself to really examine your intentions before embarking on your journey as an online entrepreneur. Your home based internet business will require from you a great amount of substance and character, exponentially more than any shallow initial expectations.

Best Network Marketing MLM - Make the Best of It and Increase Your Income

When it comes to the best network marketing MLM, one of the most important aspects to consider is just what product or service you are going to be selling. You want to choose something which is suitable for you, something which you would use yourself.

You also need to consider timing when it comes to selling. For example, do people really want to purchase dieting advice during the festive season, or would they be more likely to purchase this type of product in the New Year? Even though here I am concentrating onto promotion and selling, it is just a small aspect of your best network marketing MLM opportunity.You should also keep a close eye on global expansion as well. Look at companies which are expanding, will your product or service sell well in other countries?

Are You Leaving Things Better Than You Found Them?

Starting with this quote today, it has touched my heart and changed my mindset forever."Showing a profit means touching something and leaving it better than you found it." Jim RohnWhen you first read this quote, lots of things can come to mind. What comes to mind if you are business for yourself might be quite different than what comes to mind if you work for someone else. No matter what business you're in, this quote should make you think about differently about the word profit.To be successful in multi-level marketing, it takes great products, persistence, and teamwork. The ultimate goal is to make money, or a profit. If you are a follower of the "go-giver" philosophy it is to make a profit by helping others. But does it really leave the people you come in contact better than when you found them? Can you really make sure that always happens?Making sure that a person is better than when you found them is not always easy, but it can be accomplished. Remember, it does not always mean that you leave them better off financially. Some people start off in multilevel marketing and find they are just not cut out for it. But did they profit in some other way from being involved? If they were trained properly and had good interactions with their upline, the answer should be yes. Maybe they learned how to be more confident. Maybe they learned how to run a business. At a minimum they learned something about themselves that they don't want to be a network marketer.In multilevel marketing is easy to get caught up in the process. It is also easy to overlook some individual needs, particularly as your team gets larger. By keeping this quote in mind when working throughout the day, it helps to bring you back to earth and remember that your ultimate purpose is to help people in some way. It will also help you remember that profit does not always mean money.It is also important to know how to help people leave. Convincing someone to stay in a business when, in spite of everyone's best effort, they are not being successful, is not helping anyone. In fact, severe damage can be done by trying to hang on too long. Leave them with something positive and something they can use later. Leave them with a positive feeling about the experience, about you, and about the company. After all, even if they are no longer selling products they certainly can be some of your best customers and everyone can profit!Copyright (c) 2010 Soaring Eagle Companies LLC

Entrepreneurs and opportunists all over the world have been looking for new and original methods to get money like the bigger industries and earn a larger share of the profits. At a time when many industries are shutting down, multi level marketing is growing faster than ever and is creating large volumes of money for people everywhere.Multi level marketing is a structure used by companies to create a marketing and sales force to promote their products, not only for sales they personally generate, but also for the sales of other people that they introduce to the company. This creates a downline of promoters and multiple levels of compensation for the people participating.The products and company are marketed directly to consumers and business partners by word of mouth, and marketed often to family and friends. The members make their money by the number of sales they have made; it also considers the sales of the members that they have recruited to join the business; the more people that you recruit who are producers the more money you make.Many people get multi level marketing confused with pyramid schemes, often mistaken one for the other. But one is a legitimated business and the other can be a host of things. However, in most cases, the pyramid or ponzi scheme has its victims buy expensive products with the promise of making lots of money from the sale of these products. It also involves an exchange of money for enrolling other people into the scheme, where you are to be compensated richly for doing so. However, with this type of business model only a very few at the top of the organization is making the big money promised to the downline.These schemes do not last long because most members are not going to stay around long spending their hard earned money on products that they can not easily move, as they watch themselves increasingly going broke. It is not long before they get frustrated and quit.Multi level marketing can be a lucrative and very rewarding enterprise if it is a legitimate organization, and if its members are willing to work hard and follow the system. On the other hand, if it is an illegal pyramid scheme, it can be a nightmare for many involved. The safest approach for anyone considering becoming a member of any multi level marketing organization is to do your homework on the company and its management; its compensation plan; its training; and its products. Its better to be safe than sorry.

The Five Pillars of Kindness - Frank Kern's Secret to Success

Have you ever heard of Frank Kern? He is probably the top earning internet marketer on the planet as well as one of the coolest, smoothest guys you'll ever encounter. Upon waking up this morning, I checked my email box to find an email from Frank Kern himself with an awesome video he put together that knocked my socks off.When Frank talks about marketing, I shut up, stop whatever I am doing and listen. I mean come on, the guy has made as much as $27 million in a year online and just last year he pulled in about $9 million in revenue on 1 product. Yep, just one!Do you think you and I could learn something from the guy? I am going to give you what Frank Kern shared with me so sit back, relax and take it all in.Pillar #1 - Know your list or audiences desired outcomeA lot of Internet Marketers have huge lists but make no money from that list. A true marketer will know it's niche market and what they want. To be successful in this game, you have to know exactly what people desire and help them get it.Pillar #2 - Overcome Their Skepticism With Shock and Awe KindnessOk, you are probably saying, "Josh, what the hell are you talking about"? Well, here it goes. When someone joins your list and opts in, they do so because they want to get one step closer to their desired outcome. It's your job to put your best foot forward and give them your best stuff for free. Don't hold back. It's all about developing trust with people and if you can deliver the goods, you're going to have that trust. Give them your "secret weapon" that you have used to produce the biggest results for yourself.Pillar #3 - Demonstrate That They Can Achieve Their Desired OutcomeYou want your list to know that they can do it. Doubt ruins ambition and when people are doubtful, they won't take another step further with you. You want to show them that other people are having the success that they desire. Show them testimonials and proof of what has happened for people in your program that have followed the system and have succeeded. Social proof is everything and the proof is in the pudding, per say.Pillar #4 - Give People The Tools UPFRONT that they need to get startedOffer people 5 FREE bonuses that will get them started in getting closer to their desired outcome. Depending on what your selling or trying to sell, this will be different in every instance. Give them something that they can walk away with and become successful even if they don't partner with you or buy anything from you. Once again, this goes a long way in earning peoples trust and giving them pure value. You want to be a value adder to peoples lives.Pillar #5 - Motivate People To Go FurtherYou want to make an offer to your list with their best interest in mind, not yours. If you follow the above steps and have created trust with your list, they will be motivated to go further because they see that you are someone of value and you have positioned yourself as an authority. When they see you have their best interest in mind, you will be able to do business with people for years to come, over and over again.In ClosingJust to recap the 5 pillars, you want to know peoples desired outcomes, help them overcome skepticism with coolness that blows them away, demonstrate that they can have success by using testimonials, give people the tools they need to get started and finally motivate people to take the next steps by keeping their interests in mind.This is the Iron-Clad process that Frank has used to create his empire and has now unselfishly shared it with me so that I in turn could in turn share it with you.Warm Regards,Joshua K.

MLM Lead Specialist Review - Are Their MLM Leads Any Good?

MLM Lead Specialist is a company that provides MLM leads to people involved with network marketing programs. They have an assortment of different lead options assist networkers in growing their businesses.With many MLM lead companies out there, how do they rate? Are they any good?First, we need to look at a couple of truths in this industry:1. All Leads StinkSeriously, it doesn't matter what type of cold-lead source you are using - the majority of those leads will never do business with you. It's not that leads don't work: they do. If you're in a home-business, you need to have tons of leads available to build your business, but no matter how targeted, "real-time", or triple-interviewed the leads may be, most will not do business with you.We can use this to our advantage by building a marketing system that weeds through that crowd and simply leaves you with the people that are truly interested in what you are offering. And that leads into the next point...2. Marketing Systems Are CriticalEven if you have 10,000 targeted, interested leads available, you still need a marketing system to put those leads through to get any results. That means they must be prospected, presented, and ultimately closed in order for you to see any return on those leads. Most networkers first start out with the wrong lead type (usually biz-op leads...which are simply a waste of time) and then try to put them through the wrong marketing system (usually whatever lame setup their company has given them - a sizzle call, replicated website, or some other ineffective tool).What MLM Lead Specialist cannot give you is the skill-set to turn those leads into cash. They may have targeted leads, but it's up to you to get the skills to monetize those leads and help them with your product, service, and opportunity.

Ovoro MLM Business - Now Here's an Interesting Fact About Ovoro MLM Businesses

Ovoro MLm business places their company in a good position by having a product line in the Health and Wellness niche. Quite a few MLMs put great stock in this industry and rightfully so; the Health and Wellness niche has turned into a heavy hitter over the last 5 or so years. In researching them, I found honest answers in regards to mark-ups in the supplement industry which led me to believe they have the best interests at heart and possibly a solid MLM business model behind it. That's a rarity I don't usually encounter in this industry and it seems to be reflected in their pricing as well. Interesting. Let's take a closer look...In an effort to set Ovoro apart from the majority of companies in this niche, they have taken the buzzword, "Superfood" and put it to good use by developing merchandise with that theme at their heart. They target three sub-niches that the global population has statistically proven are concerned about; weight loss is always a high priority, general health awareness is on the rise, and since everyone wants a radiant appearance they have covered this as well.The products in Ovoro's weight-loss category suggest a few strategies that are well known to be proper techniques for shedding the pounds such as Ovoro Detox and Ovoro X-treme. There is however, one detoxification pill I have some qualms about. The product is called a "72 hour Slimming Pill". The ingredient list reads like a health food shopping list with all the herbs that are commonly used to kick the toxins out of your body; I just have a problem with the name I guess and living in Ireland, as I do, the only two things that last 72 hours is a funeral and a drinking session (usually both at the same time). It seems reminiscent of the crash diet fad (which I'm not sure is over yet) but maybe it works, who knows.Acne could be viewed as one of the most devastating skin conditions and Ovoro seems to recognize this. They have spent much time and effort developing a front line of defense specifically for acne. So it comes as no shock that they have come up with a formula that is reported to work. You may also find yourself wanting to use it just for the smell; since the ingredients are all natural, that harsh chemical odor is left behind. You can choose which of their three products suit your needs or opt in for the whole system.In the final sub-niche, General Health and Wellness, Ovoro fits in a wide variety of products. You can find libido enhancing supplements, all natural fiber blends to aide in intestinal health and a combination of B-complexes to reduce the effects of stress. They also have sleep aides, mood enhancers and blood sugar regulators among other all natural supplements. Basically, if you need an all natural substitution, there's a good chance Ovoro will be able to help you out.You can purchase products one at a time or get one of their starter packs. You also have the option to become a preferred customer which gives you substantial discounts (anywhere from 50% to 75% off the retail price) and that is always worth it if the product is good. From all reports, Ovoro has products that deliver quality so being a preferred customer may be the way to go if being a business owner isn't for you.The bottom line is that's not a bad move either because as of September 2009, Ovoro has stopped offering the chance to become a distributor and only offers the products themselves. They claim the economy made them do it. Poor Ovoro (the recession sucks, right?).

If you set a goal of talking to 100 people a day you will get some people that will say yes and you will contact them at a later date for a follow up session.The second traditional MLM marketing method that will always work is utilizing home meetings. This is a strategy where you invite your friends, family and acquaintances over to your house after you have shared some information about your new business and have a more detailed presentation prepared for them to look at, preferably done by an experienced representative.These are just 2 techniques that you can use to build your network marketing business, I wanted to get into these because they have and will always stand the test of time.

What Are My Chances of Success in Network Marketing?

I have been asked, what are my chances to succeed in network marketing? The answer is 100%. Now, you will tell me I am a liar, because you may have read some of my websites that I talk about the industry rate of 95% of people fail in network marketing. Now, I would like to point out, if you feel you will fail so you do not take the actions, you do not plan, you do not find a way to overcome adversity, you will fail. However, if you came into network marketing with a plan to fail and you did, I will tell you that you succeeded.Where is your focus? If your plan is to succeed, then what should keep you away from your goal? Why don't you deserve it? What do you want to see accomplished in your business? Let me ask you, what is your motivation to starting a business? A lot of people will call this your unstoppable WHY! It may be to have financial security to be able to spend every second you can with your spouse. It may be your grandchildren, it may be a cause that is worthy like helping battered women and having a shelter for them. What ever it is, it is the reason that if you have a hard time and decide to give up, you can go to that person and tell them that you are giving up on them. How many wives would want their husbands to come in and say they were not important enough and that the husband said it was not worth it? You can change it up, and the results create a lump in your throat and you can not swallow it.Now, let me say that what you focus on you will definitely hit. I will say do not take this challenge literally. But could you drive from where you are today, and you pick a target 1000 miles away! You will tell me of course you can do that and you may have done that on a family vacation. Now, since we know you can do it, I want you to change your focus next time you do that trip. Have someone paint your windows on your doors and your windshield black. The only thing you can do is look in the rear view mirror. Do you think you would make it? Let me be clear, make it with out having an accident? Now, you are probably laughing, and you said you could make the trip because you had done it. I changed your focus and all of a sudden you find that you would not be successful, why? It was your focus. How many times do we think we could not make a career change and be successful especially if it is in a different industry. A lot of the time, this is because we are looking in the rear view mirror.Only you have the answer if you will succeed or fail. You pick. If you chose to fail, let me say please do not even start a network marketing business, because I want you to succeed.

iLearning Global Shut It's Doors I Was Shocked!

Yesterday evening I received an e-mail instructing me to get on an emergency webinar, not knowing what is was all about, I did and to my shock, I learned that iLearning Global had shut its doors on the network marketing side. I could not believe it; I sat there in total disbelief because I know people who had just made the decision to join the company and did.iLearning Global in my opinion was a company that people look for because its business model is personal development and if you are really into that this would have been perfect. We all know that in order for you to succeed in any business you have to develop yourself and this was the platform to do it.This has really saddened me because so many people who trusted their sponsors and believed in the company and the people who were making huge incomes like 5-6 figures a month have just had the rug pulled out from under them. Can you imagine, one day you have money coming in that you thought would keep coming and then next day it is all gone just like that?I do not know about you but I would be devastated as I am sure a lot of the reps in iLearning Global are today. Hopefully after the initial shock has worn off they can sit down and assess where they are and what they need to do. I hope that it does not put a bad taste in their mouth about the industry, because this truly is a great industry as a whole.What I would like to encourage the reps is to now, go out and do your due diligence, go research, talk to some top earners in other companies and find out what they recommend that you do. Look at other products and services that are proven in the industry, but do not rush into anything.See the problem is that a lot of people join companies that have just launched or that has only been around for no more than 18 months they do not look to see if the company has a strong foundation to survive and the hype that is surrounded by the momentum is what gets them involved. What happens is that the company shuts down because it can no longer pay out the money it promised with no warning and you are basically left out in the cold.I personally got caught up in the hype of another company that I am not going to name but luckily used what GOD gave me and came to my senses before I left my company that is one of the top companies in the industry. That company again that I will not name will fold very soon and I will be writing about that one as well.The main thing is that I want to convey is that there are a lot of great companies out there and a lot of not so great companies out there. Take your time, look at the comp plan, the management, the leadership and the niche of the company and ask yourself will this company be around it 2-5 years and possible longer, then decide to join.Lastly, it really does not matter what company you decide to get with in the end because you still have to recruit and sell the product or service and you need a system to help you get you new downline going if and when you start your new business.You need a system that can help you generate leads, help you learn how to market offline and online, help you leverage your time and to train your new reps the same way so that you all can make money. So if the rug ever gets pulled out from under you again, you will still be able to find another company and not worry about how you will build it all over again because you could not keep your downline intact.Stay the leader that your team trusted you in the first place and decided to join you by helping them generate as many leads and turn them into new recruits and customers immediately.
