Recruiting 101 - 5 Steps to a Tidal Wave of New Distributors

How are your recruiting efforts going in your Network Marketing business?If you're frustrated with your recruiting efforts, then getting back to the basics are more than likely missing in your business. After researching several top leaders with 20+ distributors in their organization, each one recall a time when their recruiting efforts started paying off was when they got back to the basics Recruiting 101.Many people never see results in network marketing when it comes to adding new team members on their team for several reasons. One of the main reason for so many none successful network marketers are they focus so much on the new and improved way to recruit that they forget about the basics.In this article you will learn the basic steps you need to master in order to stop continuously struggling in your network marketing business. It doesn't matter what business you're in, there are 5 steps that must be implemented at all times.Lets get right into it....1. ExposeMany networkers get this step wrong and as a result recruit minimum amounts of new distributors in their business. Many marketers make the mistake of presenting there business to quickly. Your exposure should be the sizzle for your opportunity so less is more.A very effective way is to have a message that gives people a brief look at a possible problem they might be facing your company can fix. You want to connect with your prospect on an emotional level from a challenge they have in their life now.2. PresentAt this point your prospect is ready to see the solution to their problems and how your company will solve it. Another key point in this step is you must always use 3rd party to present your opportunity. I heard from many top leaders that if your mouth is moving it better be pointing to something. Here are a few examples website, meeting, webinar or conference call done by leaders on your team.3.ValidateNetwork marketers miss this very important step in their business because they discount the power of 3rd party. Validation is the key to recruiting people who make more money then you and especially your friends and family.4.EnrollBy this time your sponsor has already got them in the business for you and it's time to get your new distributor started right. Yay, you mad some commission.5. SupportThis is the key step to keeping your new team member actively on your team productive and moving with you. Many network marketers switch companies because they don't have the support they need from their sponsor. Your business should have a system in place that is so simple anyone in your organization can plug into and create what ever income level their looking for.The first 30days are crucial when you recruit a new distributor on your team and guided action must be taken everyday for maximum results. Having the right leader to guide you in your new venture showing you step by step is vital to the success you have.These 5 steps have created organization's bigger than ever and are missed by so many because networkers are always looking for whats the real way to recruit and its staring them in the face.

Does One Bad Apple Spoil the Whole Bunch?

I will readily admit, there are lots of bad companies in MLM. Just today I got another message on Facebook about a reverse 2-up scheme, where you pay $25 to get in (and get nothing for your money!) and they promise to pay you $25 for every person who joins after you, to infinity, no matter who sponsors them. The person pays $25 to join and everyone above them gets $25? Right. You do the math!But not all MLM companies are unethical. And let's face it, there are plenty of other nasty schemes in life! Have you seen these?
Email from supposed attorneys overseas with unclaimed millions they want you to have
Email with your bank's logo asking you to verify information
Impersonators on Facebook trying to sell you something
Messages on Facebook that you know this friend didn't send
Fraudulent charges on your credit or debit card
Charges to your credit card for a product that is on backorder
Computer viruses
The first one is such an obvious scam I can't believe anyone falls for it. These people ask for some information they can use to steal your identity and of course you never get the millions of bucks! The second one is much scarier, because if someone uses a company log that you trust and it seems to come from their company's email address, you may think it is legitimate. One of my banks constantly warns us not to respond to such information requests but I have received them, supposedly from other companies, who never sent a warning to their customers. But my point is, do you stop using email because of these things?There was someone impersonating Robert Kiyosaki on Facebook in December, trying to get people to send checks made out to another name (supposedly his accountant) to a street address (no company name) in return for an ebook. And he sent several messages, as well as live chats, trying to get me to send money. One time it was 5 AM Eastern time and he was claiming to be in Hawaii! One of my friends also had her Facebook account hacked and the person was sending chat messages about some colon cleanse product which I knew she would never endorse. But I didn't stop using Facebook because of these incidents!I have had several fraudulent credit card charges over the years. The worst one however, was a charge to a debit card which my former MLM company used to pay commissions. The card issuer refused to reverse the charges for nearly two months until my company intervened. I will never join a company again that pays commissions to an ecard, but I still use my credit card daily.In some states it is illegal to charge a customer's credit card for merchandise that hasn't shipped, but apparently it is not illegal everywhere because it has happened to both me and my husband. It's unethical of course!And finally, who hasn't been affected by a computer virus? But we still use computers!There will always be criminals in the world. I wish it weren't true, but it is. And there will always be unethical behaviour that isn't technically illegal. But I truly wish people would stop claiming that all MLM companies are unethical. And I truly wish that video websites would recognize this as well (several have banned all information on MLM including information about free training that helps people avoid the bad companies!) Not only are there legitimate companies selling great products and making people wealthy, but in today's economy I truly believe MLM is going to save many people from going broke!

Essante Review - Is Mike Wenniger's Vision of Organic Products the Wave of the Future?

This Essante review is designed to offer a clear vision of what kind of opportunity this company presents to any home business owner that's really looking for a better way to not only make money, but a better way to live as well.It all starts with Michael Wenniger the CEO and founder of Essante Worldwide who is really a business visionary and has many extraordinary accomplishments to his resume. Essante translated from French means, "The essence of total health" and health doesn't just stop at the physical with Michael. It relates to the financial, physical, emotional and spiritual well being. This isn't something he's committed to, it's something he's absolutely passionate about.My encounter with Michael was by coincidence. Upon returning the call of a lead I had generated it was Michael on the other end of the phone, so this review comes more from personal experience than anything else. This man being committed to his cause and his company is an understatement to the highest degree. Never, and I mean never, have I spoken to a company leader who has more passion and vision for his company, products and people than Michael. If you've spoken to him personally, you know exactly what I mean.The PhilosophyThe company philosophy is to create and provide true green healthy living alternatives to the chemically filled products that people use every day. From what we ingest to what we put on our body, the vision of providing the first and best truly organic and wildcrafted products to be distributed on a world wide basis is Mr. Wenniger's vision and frankly, this is a man that says what he means and does what he says.The ProductsThe company first came on the scene with power pops. Touted as an all natural weight loss product that was easy to consume, all you had to do was to suck on a lollipop and lose weight. By attacking the huge weight loss market, the company made a name for itself with these all natural synergistic herbal blended pops that made losing weight possible for the masses by suppressing your appetite in a simple and convenient way.Since then, the product line has expanded greatly through products that alkalize your system, organic skin care, organic spa products, superfood protein products and more. Again, the commitment is to provide all organic alternatives for your body inside and out. Pretty challenging if you consider what's required to research and test these claims.The OpportunityThe pay structure is a binary pay plan. This is where you have two legs under you that you need to build. If you're fortunate enough to have business builders above you, you may receive spillover on one leg and just need to build the other cutting your organizational growth job in half.While binary programs have tremendous income producing potential to build income to infinity, they also have the same challenges as many other pay structures. On the plus side your income isn't limited to the size of some matrix pay structure. On the downside, you still need to be a business builder. Nothing happens without action.My ConclusionEssante worldwide has the products, the leadership and the global scope to be a business that any forward thinking networker should take a look at. With all of the marginal opportunities on the scene, this one is ahead of the pack in many, many ways and is extremely well funded to stand the test of time.That being said, taking action is the biggest hurdle for any networker. Your target market is other network marketers and building an organization in the fastest way possible is your goal. How do you go about it?The SystemAny networker in today's market that wants to be successful knows that you can't go out and do old school sponsoring of doing home parties and talking to friends or family to build a business. This business has evolved way beyond that concept. If you think that's fun, by all means keep it up, but you're missing the boat on how you can take a program like Essante and really build a huge income using the leverage of the internet.Your goal, no your mission, should be getting acquainted with all of the online tools to become a master at lead generation and affiliate marketing so that you have multiple sources of income while building your business that generates leads for your business at the same time.A lead generating funnel system takes time to learn and put into place, but the few months of learning will provide you with a lifetime of income for any opportunity you pursue. It allows you to build credibility in the marketplace and to position yourself as a leader instead of a follower in the networking business and that's your ultimate goal.

Focus on the Important and Explode Your MLM Business

Recently I went to watch my son play in a tennis tournament. He had a pulled muscle and lost (to a guy he had alwaysbeaten), but only just. Not a worry.As I was watching, I got to thinking. There he was- just a notch below professional level. How did he get SO good?Was it persistence? That's part of the story. Was it hard work? That's another part. Was it talent? Yep, that one too.What else?What about focus? Over the last 9 years, I have lost track of the number of times Nathan had another plan. Such as taking up soccer. Or martial arts. Or any old idea that came to mind.I held firm. I said 'toe the line,boy!' And he did.And there he is - after 9 grinding years - playing his heart out and looking like a hero.So focus (and persistence) is imperative. It's the thing. But it is difficult. Particularly, if you want to get your network marketing business up and running.It takes plenty of focus (and persistence). And it is S-O easy to get the wobbles and go off track. So many temptations - sometimes I feel like a kid in a candy superstore. This internet marketing thing IS addictive. We're spoilt for choice, really.So you have to focus - like a laser beam. You have to avoid all the temptations and counter productive thoughts that will drop in front of you.Above all you have to focus on what is central to you.Last week I read a great article by author Everett Bogue. His article titled The Stunning Truth About Focusing on the Important' showcases some important points. Here are some quotes from his article."Being minimalist trumps all of the little stuff. Minimalists don't have to figure out how to do more stuff quickly, because they have no interest in doing more stuff.""The average person has lots of things to do every day. This leads to stress pain, anger and frustration, because they can't possibly get it all done. Then they go shopping to make themselves feel better."Kapow! He hits the nail on the head doesn't he?So what is important to you? Have you got it figured yet? Once you have, you can then employ the Prosperity Law of Vacuum and eliminate all distractions. Simplify your life and focus 100% on your business. Watch it zoom!

Herbalife Reviews - My Story

When I started looking online for a business that I could work at from home, I came across Herbalife. It was a banner ad that asked if I wanted to make $500-$1000 working from home and naturally I clicked on it filled out the form and I waited. About 1 day later I started to get calls that I just let go to voice mail never picking them up.This went on about 2 weeks and finally I answered. I listened to the closing pitch got involved and at that time I was overweight for my height and needed to lose weight desperately. I ordered the products, which started with the Quick start pack which consisted of, the multivitamin, cell activator and herbal tea. I started to lose inches first then actually weight and I felt great, I was sold.I then went to a friend of mine who was extremely overweight and got her on the products, oh my gosh she lost so much weight I wish she could have been a spokes person for Herbalife. We took a before and after picture it was truly amazing.I then began to sell it to people that I worked with, that came into my place of business and I did in fact make money selling the products, I even wore the button "LOSE WEIGHT NOW ASK ME HOW!" until my boss made me take it off. I can honestly say that the products do work!I then decided to try to build a business, I did what my upline told me to do and that was to buy leads. Well, this is what happened, out of 100 leads that I purchased I got 1 distributor and the rest of the people told me they were not interested, they did not request any information, they hung up on me and I got frustrated and quit trying to recruit into the business.Well zest for selling the product left me then also because of those rejections that I could not handle and did not know how to handle. My goal was to lose weight, stay a home and make money, well I lost the weight and the money was not enough to stay at home, so I quit Herbalife.I shared my story with you as a testimony to the great product if you are looking to lose weight and feel great then definitely try Herbalife today, the company is a great company to build if you know how and I just did not at the time. Luckily for me I found out that you can build a successful business no matter what it is if you know how to generate leads that are actually interested in starting a business.Even though I am no longer in Herbalife, for those of you that are, it is an awesome company if you learn how to market it properly you will find huge success health along the way!

How to Have Multiple Income Streams and Endless MLM Leads

This is the most valuable post I have made yet, so pay attention to this one! As any Network Marketer comprehends, if you do not have any leads to talk to, you do not have a business. What I want to talk to you about today is a way to acquire more leads than you can possibly handle, and in the process, create for yourself MULTIPLE Income Streams to keep your wallet full.Do I have your attention now?Lets start with having multiple income streams. What exactly do I mean by that anyway? Well, you have your network marketing company (or you are about to). In that company, you will surely have a bonus system set up that will pay you for getting someone into your company. That is one income stream. The next is the residual income you gain by having a big downline. That is a second income stream. Now, the residual income will take some time, usually a few years to be considered a sufficient, monthly income, which really only leaves you with one stream right now.If you do not have at least 5-10 streams of income, then you are truly leaving a lot of money on the table, and get this: it is simple to set up! Right now, I have my two streams of income with my network marketing company. On top of that, I am set up with a lead generating system that provides me an additional 16 available streams of income in the form of affiliates! How would you like to take part in up to 18 different ways of making money each and every month?! If you say no, then you need to have your head checked!Pay close attention to this next segment. I mentioned that I am part of a system. I bet you are wondering what that system is, and what it does. The system I am referring to is called MLM Lead System Pro, and what it does is:Sets you up with a complete online lead generating systemGive you access to a library of training to get your business booming fast.Gives you weekly support from the leaders through webinarsSets you up with affiliate programs, that once set up, makes you money WITHOUT having to constantly spend time with it!Sets you up as the leader, and brands you to others, not a company.Lets you have access to me, my team, and my trainingsand much, much more!In a nutshell, what I am putting in front of you today is an opportunity to multiply your income streams and your capability to get leads online all put together for you in one package, and if that is not enough for you, you will have a step by step guide on how to make it work for you!Let me touch, just for a moment, on the leads you will get, with this system. Building a business offline requires you to talk to people one-on-one, or have a meeting. It works, but the problem is that you are limited to the number of people you can talk to at a time, and the time constraint you have to show the presentation. Having a system like I am talking about is so important in this day and age, because you can have a website doing the exact same thing for you, and having it work for you 24/7. What if, instead of being able to have 3 or 4 leads a day offline, you could have 50 or 60 leads going to your website everyday. Do you see how that could forever change your business and your financial situation?Now that you have the knowledge of this system to get endless leads, and have multiple streams of income, are you ready to act on what you know? Are you ready to make some money? Great! What you need to do now is merely go to my blog,and enter your information in the box at the top right of the page, and experience this life changing system first hand!

How to Overcome Objections in Your MLM Business - Pain Free

First let's get your head straight...The first step to success for a new network marketer is getting over being rejected, it's easier said than done.I can speak from experience, and honestly say that being rejected is painful. The truth is that by choosing to be an entrepreneur you've signed up to hear more people say no to you than yes.If you let remain determined and focused a few no's wont get in your way.No one ever died from prospecting and dealing with objections!Guess what? Neither will you. But, what I've been able to turn painful prospecting into fun, non-threatening, conversation.If you follow these 5 strategies you're gonna love prospecting, you'll wake up every morning excited to listen to anyone who's willing to talk! Did you get that?Strategy 1:Always LISTENThis is not about YOU, move it!It's all about, who can be helped today!Helping is LISTENING. Therefore prospecting is LISTENING. Prospecting starts in your head, you have to change your mindset, and your own internal belief system before you can attempt to reach out and connect with people. Your intention should always be to see if there's a need and if you have a way to fill it. If on the other hand your objection is to sign someone up, right off the bat, you've lost. You've closed yourself off from truly having a meaningful conversation. We are in the business of solving problems, listen for one you can solve, then offer it as a solution... SIMPLE!Tip 2:Find Common GroundAsk important questions and keep the ball in your court. If you're asking questions, you're winning! Always have the ball in your court. Open with building RAPPORT.If you get stuck, I recommend using F.O.R.M.F - Family: "How are the kids, wife, grandma, dog... etc" (LISTEN and take notes if you have a bad memory)O stands for Occupation: "What are you doing to pay the bills?"R stands for Recreation: "What do you do in your spare time?"M - Motivation: "Besides money, what are you looking for in a home based business?" (My favorite question!)Strategy 3:Confront Objections Head OnThis tip helped me produce over $60,000 worth of sales in only 2 months! After building rapport you want to get right into the meat and potatoes. Start to qualify, by asking questions that will also have the prospect deciding to sign up all on his own.Here are four powerful questions that address: I have no Time or This isn't the right timing/I'm not ready to Commit/I don't have any Support/Can you really make Money doing this or I don't have any money.1. "If given the opportunity to collaborate with our team, how much TIME are you willing to commit?"2. "Commitment is very important to our teams structure, it's one of the reasons we've seen individual and collective success, how committed are you to your own dreams, and can you commit to a team?" "How long will you give yourself to work towards your dream?"3. "Do you have a support system?" "How do they feel?"4. "Do you have working capitol to get started with your network marketing business?"Strategy 4:RINSE and REPEATIf your prospect failed to qualify get off the phone! If they passed it's now your turn to offer a solution.Repeat back the answers your prospect had to your questions, in a positive way. This is called a U-turn.For example: "Mrs. Prospect you said that your husband is very excited for you, that's great to have such awesome support, your finances are in order, and your time commitment is awesome, I've been able to see amazing results with my company, my husband and I work together, and I'm just as committed to my team as I am to my own success, let me explain how our company can help you and your husband put your kids through college... Now you can explain what your business is, keep it simple and sexy.Tip 5:Show Your Prospect You're A Leader!Always give your prospect a task to complete. At this point Mr Prospect will be hanging on your every word. It's now or never. Give them two options, "I'd like to have you as my guest on a private webcast at 5pm Today or 5pm Tomorrow, which will work better for you?" Always try to send them to a live presentation first, if that's not available then use a scheduled webcast, and if you don't have either send them to your replicated website as a last resort.Then schedule your follow up. After a prospect has seen a presentation, always open with, "What was your favorite part?"Everyone has a little anxiety about getting started, sometimes a prospect just needs to be reminded about his answers to T/C/S/M to make a final decision, but never be pushy!Then confidently say, "Mr. Prospect, it seems like your ready to get started!" Then SHUT UP! The first person to talk is the loser!

How to Look After Your Customer List, and Profit From it For Years

It is a fact that Internet marketers concentrate so much on making a sale. The very best Internet marketers will maintain a customer database, and will make sure they look after their customers to the best of their ability. They recognize that their customers are their greatest asset.It has been proven many times that existing customers are the best customers for any new product or service. This means that looking after your customer database should be top priority. One of the strange failings among many who use the internet to sell products and services is the failure to carry out research into the needs and wants of customers by asking them directly. So often, a customer is signed up to an email list as part of the process of making a purchase, and all that happens is that they receive automated emails which try to sell them other products. Often, the quality of these lists is so poor that the majority of the emails are not even opened, and in other cases there will be a huge unsubscription rate.It really doesn't make a lot of sense. Customers are the best prospects for further purchases, and yet they are effectively thrown away by lazy marketing. If you can supply some quality content to your subscribers, you will have a far better chance of keeping them on your list. Why not go even further, and integrate with the customer to find out exactly what it is they want?Sending out surveys as part of your interactive marketing is one way to collect information, and could give you an insight into, for example, why a competitor's product has sold better than yours. To get a large percentage of your list to take part in the survey, offer a free bonus upon completion. Now, it is possible to produce audio and video products for virtually no charge, so there should be no shortage of interesting products you can offer to your list in exchange for their opinions.This free product could even contain information relating to an upsell, or some links to affiliate products in order to cover you for your time in setting up the survey. This type of online survey is usually better supported than many surveys in the physical world. One of the reasons for this is the ease of completing an online survey and submitting it. Another is the fact that the person filling in the survey gets a free gift for their effort. Thirdly, the online environment lends itself to the sharing of information.Your customer list is the greatest asset you have in your business. Treat this list well, and you can profit from it for years.

Real CieAura Review - Will CieAura Be Your Health Company in the 21st Century?

What is CieAura?CieAura is a network marketing company that produces and distributes transparent holographic chips that are purported to improve health and promote good balance that's integral to the body's systems.CieAura's entry into the marketplace is well-timed in that the need for better healthcare products is on the rise. Coupled with technology, theirs could revolutionize the way people keep themselves healthy.Succeeding with CieAuraProbably the main complaint about CieAura is not in its product but in its training. To recruit others into the system, members are encouraged to tap their 'warm' leads - family members and friends - and introduce them to the system through a home-brewed presentation. And here's where CieAura doesn't deliver.What the company hasn't realized is that using warm leads is not a guarantee of success for their members. After all, not every member of your family or circle of friends is an entrepreneur at heart or even in the making. CieAura's member training needs some serious overhaul if they want their members to perform and actually start making money. Otherwise, they will simply be discouraged and join another opportunity they find more worthwhile.A good way for CieAura to fully realize its potential is to fortify its training and promotions by attracting some of the industry's big and influential distributors. By boosting their marketing and using innovative ways to promote both offline and off, CieAura will be able to build a solid foundation for its market. In the end, this will not only benefit CieAura's members and distributors but the company itself.In order to succeed with CieAura, a new member must:Consider the opportunity very carefully. The product relies on technology in order to deliver results. Will you be able to market it effectively and sell it to others?Assess their ability to market, promote and recruit. Not every person who finds this opportunity interesting is capable of effectively selling it to others.Do away with the old MLM way of tapping warm leads and use new, more effective ways to promote, sell and recruit.
