Networking Systems or Networking Failure

MLM with No Proven System Equals No Money.         OUCH!

People building a network marketing income often analyze products and they analyze companies they might join, but they don’t really ask what is maybe the most important question: Does my sponsor have a tested, proven system that I can plug into to build my business? You need to talk to the person recruiting you and find out exactly what they are doing, step-by-step, to build their business.

If they’ve just started, that is OK. But what is THEIR sponsor doing? You need a proven system you can just plug into. If there is no successful system in place, then go somewhere else, because that means you will have to develop your own reliable lead-generation system. And that makes your opportunity for success very, very small. When you analyze a system, one important aspect is … does it make sense?

A good system has to feed you leads of people who are real actual targeted prospects for your business. There are plenty of systems around – most of them – who will give you contact information of lots of people who have no interest whatsoever in your offer. You will not succeed in your own business of ANY kind if you have to become a salesperson. The correct solution is a lead generator that gives you real warriors, people who are determined to succeed in network marketing, but who haven’t gotten there yet. THOSE are people you can build with.

To have a successful, serious, stable network marketing income go on autoship. Autoship means that they automatically get product each month, charged to their credit card. Autoship means that you have customers you can count on ordering each month, which means you start each month with a certain income base, and it increases from there. When you explain to your people that autoship is what gives the business stability, they’ll see the light, because they are also serious about building an income they can depend on.

You can tell them that there are good reasons for autoship. These reasons will vary from program to program, but here are 4 possibilities. Your autoship products make perfect prospect samples. That means that your autoship expense is 100% tax deductible, because it is a business expense. For tax purposes, keep a record of the free samples you give. Also, some companies provide you a free product when you have 100 points of autoship of autoship. Third, being on autoship qualifies you to receive the company car bonus. Also, some companies offer a special bulk purchase for those on autoship on autoship, you get X amount of free product in that Super Pack. And you can use that for yourself, or use it again as samples with your prospects. You’ll find good reasons for autoship with any company.

Learn your comp plan so you understand your company’s autoship reasons, and share them with your prospects.

The ebook “Success in 10 Steps” by Michael Dlouhy details these ideas and many more. It’s a free download describing the pitfalls of MLM and how to be successful anyway. The plan described in the book is focused on how to build a strong team through long-term relationships. The book itself is free, and it is also part of a very inexpensive lead-generation system offered by the author, Michael Dlouhy. The reason it has such a strong impact is that so many people want the benefits of MLM, but they’ve just never had the real-life success that they want. Dlouhy shows exactly why that is, and exactly what you need to do to achieve long-term success.

The opportunity to then turn around and use the book as your own lead generator is a real bonus.
