Network marketing tip: Persuade not manipulate

Network Marketing Success Success mentor
Today network marketing tip is very crucial you get it from your mind to your heart.

I was recently in the Big Seminar in Los Angeles where I met Dave Lakhani. (The Seminar was a big rip off but I met some great people though)

I bought Dave Lakhani book “Persuasion the art of getting what you want” to see how it apply to network marketing. Man, it is a good book! The first 3 pages in chapter 1 has already impressed me.

In your network marketing business, there are two ways:

You can manipulate people to get them into your deal but they will disappear soon after.
You can persuade people to join you as a business partner and stay with you forever.

Obviously, if you are looking for recurring residual income, if you are looking to help people then you need to get to understand persuasion v/s manipulation.

Manipulation is basically the advertisement you see on TV. They manipulate you; they mess up with your mind until you buy. After you buy and receive the product, you discover that it is not what they promised you and you commit yourself of never buying from TV again. Does this seem familiar amigo?

At least that what happened to me and I believe it happened to all of us.

Would you like to manipulate or persuade your prospects for your network marketing company?

I am going to give you the four tactics in manipulating. Hopefully, you learn them to resist being manipulated instead of manipulating people. As I mentioned before, this network marketing tip is to help you grow a lasting business not a short lived one. No Cocaine here, ok.

A persuader uses these 4 tactics:

-they look for a hungry victim (you)
-they put deadlines (Call in the next 30 minute to get your discount…)
-they use fear of loss (Limited amount, hurry up…)
-they look like benevolent authority (I am the expert; I want to help you…)

Basically, they create “the urgency to buy”

A persuader in network marketing using purely direct marketing tactics succeeds in getting his bank account filled under the expenses of other people. A persuader is a vampire sucking other people’s blood.

A persuader doesn’t care what you think after you join, he got your money already.
These are exactly the tactics of recent network marketing training scams such as ... I am not going to piss anyone today, I will skip names.

In your network marketing business, you want to persuade people, so after they join, they feel even better and they stick forever. Are you looking for one night stand or a real long lasting marriage?

Our motto: build it once; build it to pay you a life time of income.

Stay posted, I will share with you my insight from the book as network marketing tips in future posts.

Persistence in Network Marketing





PERSISTENCE

In essence persistence is the power of the will. In Network Marketing this is a must or you will not succeed. Will-power and desire, when properly combined make an irresistible pair. Sometimes men of wealth are considered cold-blooded and ruthless because they have will power which is misjudged as greed. When will-power is paired with persistence and put with a persons deepest Desires, their objectives are usually attained.

The lack of persistence is very common in most people. However, it is a weakness which may be overcome with effort. Depending on our desire, which must be to the point of obsession; persistence may be dramatically helped. Desire must be utmost in our minds. Everyday our self-talk must be about our desired goals and they must be kindled with a passion of fire. We cannot let ourselves recognize failure. The very thoughts cannot occupy our conscious minds. We must learn by unfortunate failures, putting Persistence back in operation, and never loosing sight of our desired goals.

DO YOU WANT MONEY?

Fix in your mind the exact amount of money you desire. Next, determine what you will do in return for your desire. Third, establish a date when you want the money or desire to be fulfilled. Fourth, create a definite plan to carry our your desire. Fifth, write out your desire in a clear concise statement with all the details, the amount, date of achievement and what you will do in return for the money. Make a sign, put it on your bathroom mirror, on the office wall or on the refrig so you can see it each day. Sixth, read you statement out loud at least twice a day, once in the morning and before you retire at night. If you keenly desire you goal to the point of obsession, you will have no difficulty in acquiring your destination. You must become “money conscious.”

A STATE OF MIND

Persistence is a state of mind. It can be cultivated. It can only be accomplished by following this plan. Definiteness of purpose: Persist in what you want. Desire: Persist in your desire. Self Reliance: Belief in your ability to carry out your plan with Persistence. Definite Plans: Even though weak organize your plans. Co-operation: Learn to understand to be harmonious with others. It tends to develop Persistence. Will Power: Developing a habit of concentration leads to Persistence. And last Habit: Persistence is the direct result of habit. You cannot be spasmodic about your desire, you must apply rule number six to get a fixed habit, so your mind becomes “money conscious.” Without Persistence you will be defeated, even before you start. With Persistence you will WIN! There is no substitute for persistence. No matter how many times you are defeated, with persistence you will reach the top of the ladder. Then , all the failures will be changed to VICTORY in you Network Marketing organization!

Success in your Network Marketing,

Network Marketing Success – Are We Having Fun, Yet?


It’s called netWORK marketing, not netplay marketing. And you do have to work your business. But are you having fun doing it? Is it okay to have fun working it?

OF COURSE! And why not?

Isn’t it well known that people work better when they love what they do? And if they have fun and love what they do then don’t they hardly consider it work?

Part of network marketing success comes from being passionate about your company and products and services. Do you have fun with your associates in the company? Do you think that if you’re having fun you will attract more people to work with you? Since it’s not only about the destination but also about the journey, would you like to travel the distance with someone who is pessimistic, never laughs, and is anxious about what they do and finds the work disagreeable? Would you like to be that person or attract that person to you?

So, assuming your company has the 5 pillars in place for its distributors to achieve long term network marketing success (see: Network Marketing Success - How to Choose a Network Marketing Company, Episode 1, Episode 2, and Episode 3), and assuming you love the company and the products and services and the people, ARE YOU HAVING FUN, YET?

At all times and especially at this time of THANKSGIVING I am grateful for my fellow Network Marketing Success Team members of this web site and also for all my friends and associates at Mentoring for Free. Do we work hard? Absolutely. Do we laugh a lot and are we having fun, yet? YOU BET!

Network marketing prospecting mistakes

Network Marketing Success Success mentor

If you are looking for network marketing success, you need to stop repeating your mistakes and turning off your prospects:

Frequent mistakes in presenting the business:

There are five major statements that turn off 'real' people:

  • It is easy. Anyone can do it: now, ask yourself, are you trying to recruit lazy people who join only if it is easy. Even if they join you, how long do you think they are going to last before they quit? Are you lying to yourself or to your prospects? Do you think people are dumb to believe your statement?
  • My company is the best, fastest growing, best comp plan, bla bla bla: Remember network marketing is a relationship business, and not a sales business. When your prospect hear you, in his mind he is saying: sales talk, activate defense mechanism...
  • All you have to do is talk to your friends and family: that's the best one. You know this is not true. Anyone who has any experience in mlm will make fun of you, and in his mind he is going to say: yeah, right, I heard this before, I tried it, and now I don't get invited to thanks giving dinner anymore.
  • Everyone wants our products and services: You turn off again anyone who knows better, your prospect is going to say: yeah, you want me to buy bunch of stuff that I don't need so you can make more money from my back.
  • Spillover: This is the last fashion in network marketing! Ask yourself do you want to attract lazy people who are going to join and wait till they get the spillover?

SEVEN CORE VALUES TO SUCCESS







SEVEN CORE VALUES TO SUCCESS

To be successful in Network Marketing you must be a leader who gives to your organization skills and tips which are replicable. Every aspect of your company must be something a distributor can duplicate easily. Give them the essential core or “Key” values to make their organization grow. If you are a new-bee and have no idea about building an organization, you need to become familiar with the following steps. They will definitely save you years of failure and frustration.

1. COMPANY MUST HAVE 5 PILLARS
a. COMPANY MANAGEMENT - These are people who have been at the
bottom. They have started where you are right now. They remember what
it was to struggle and they now treat their distributors with integrity
and respect. They want a solid foundation for them, because without
the distributors, the company will be nothing.
b. TIMING IN THE INDUSTRY - You must do research on the company you
have chosen. Are they reputable? Are they over three years old? If
not give them time to make adjustments before you join. Make sure the
lead product is one everyone wants and along with other products which
compliment the lead product.
c.FLAGSHIP PRODUCT - The product cannot be over priced and must be
consumable. You want an outstanding “Purple Cow” product which stands
out and people will keep re-ordering.
d. COMPENSATION PLANS - Read, Read, Read! If you don’t understand
the compensation plan, get help from someone you can trust, because
your new company may not have a plan suited to you. There are 5 basic
comp plans, Binary, Unilevel, Matrix, Stairstep and Breakaway.
If you do not know the strong and weak points of these you may wake up
one morning with a
reduced monthly check of $1500 instead of $3000.
e. COMPANY HAS A REPICABLE SYSTEM WITH UPLINE TRAINING AND SUPPORT
You need an action plan. You need today’s plan, not a plan from 10
years ago. You need to learn Network Marketing is not a sales
business, it is a People Business. People join people not a business.
You need to learn the proper skills which will give you a solid base in
your organization. You want a recurring income which will pay your
children’s children.

2. YOU MUST KNOW HOW TO COMAPRE AND EVALUATE COMPENSATION PLANS
To put it simply, know your plan and how you get paid. Study all plans. Know the difference.

3. MUST UNDERSTAND THE COLORS TO SUCCESS - Red - Yellow - Blue - Green.
The knowledge you receive knowing your colors is one of the essentials to the success of your business. You cannot communicate with a Blue the same way you talk to a Red. The Blue will be gone. The same for the Green versus the Yellow. Greens want all the data. Yellows want to work with a team.

4. BUILD THE LIST
Forget friends and family. Forget the 100 No’s that are supposed produce one Yes! If a couple No’s hurt, why waste your time with 98 more No’s! Learn to advertise so customers or potential distributors seek your company.

5. BE A COLOR PROFILER
Be able to know a personality color by observing a persons clothes, by the way they order food at a restaurant, by the way they decorate their office. The quicker you can do this the quicker you can communicate with them and the way they receive information.

6. YOU MUST HAVE A HUGE WHY
If your WHY isn’t big enough, the first bump in the road is going to throw you for a loop. Ask yourself why you want to go into Network Marketing. Why do you want this business? Are you focused on your why? Is you Why so big it seems overwhelming? Do you see your dream so clearly there is nothing going to stop you from your goal? Does it scare you? Good! Your Why must be BIG.


7. YOU MUST BE A LEADER
Again, people do not join businesses, they join people. You have to know your target market to have a successful and strong Network Marketing Business. You need daily self talk, time each day to develop your skill thru C.D’s, books and research. NEVER STOP LEARNING! To be a great leader you must be teachable, have integrity, and learn how to build successful relationships. You must be able to follow instructions.
Randy Gage says this about the importance of the core values….you need all the cores, not just the ones you like. “It also takes a substantial investment in you. But you will discover that people who commit to going core reach dramatically higher levels of success than those who don’t. As a leader committed to empowering others, you have a responsibility to go core yourself, and create this culture throughout your organization.”

Communication Skills in Network Marketing


Communication Skills in Network Marketing

Good communication skills helps build relationships which is essential to Network Marketing.

How well do you communicate?

Network Marketing E-book

Communications experts tell us that only 10% of our communications is represented by what we say, 30% is represented by our sounds and 60% by our body language.

Communication is about our body language and facial expressions, how well we listen, respecting the opinion of others and knowing when to stop talking to let others speak.

What does it mean to really listen?

Real listening is an active process that involves hearing, understanding and judging. A good listener is not just a silent receptacle but also passively receiving the thoughts and feelings of others.

Did you know that thoughts move about four times as fast as your speech? To listen effectively requires that you maintain a considerable amount of self-control and concentration. This is special important for our Blue friends who want to tell us all their thoughts at once and in no particular order. Bless their hearts!

How often do you have to ask someone to repeat him or herself because you couldn't remember a point they had made earlier in the conversation?

Was there noise and verbal clutter in your mind?

Good listening requires the temporary suspension of all unrelated thoughts. In order to become an effective listener, you have to learn to manage what goes on in your own mind. Give your full attention on the person who is speaking. Make sure your mind is focused. Let the person finish before you begin to talk. Listen not only to the words but to the speakers tone and feelings.

Let’s say you are talking to a prospect and your prospect tells you "I'm just not interested." What do you say? I have heard some Network Marketers respond to people’s objection with what they call a ‘million dollar comeback’. It sounds something like this, “If I could show you a way to …..... would you be interested?” Are they really listening to what the prospect is saying? When someone says NO they mean NO. Everyone has a right to their own opinion and decision.

Instead communicate with no agenda. Don’t try to get them in your deal. Listen to understand their needs. Real listening will help you identify if they want help. They may not want help!

Want to know what a "No'' sounds like?

Let’s say you are promoting health products. You are in conversation with a person who is complaining about health issues. Ask them, ‘have you ever considered doing something about it?’ Most people speak in code. A "No" might sound like this:
“Well, I’m under Doctor’s care …”
or
“Maybe.”
or
“If I take this product and get better, I won’t have anything to complain about. My husband won’t love me and my kids won’t talk to me anymore.”

Your prospect has just told you they are not interested. Your prospect may need your product but they do not want it. Let them be. Do you want to become the pushy-aggressive sale person everyone run from? Save yourself from rejection. Be polite and courteous.

It has been said, people don’t care how much you know until they see how much you care.
Real listening involves caring for people. Listening is a precious gift. It builds friendships and ensures understanding. Having real listening skills is extremely valuable and often determines your level of success in n Network Marketing.

All the best in Network Marketing Success

Network Marketing Success – How to Choose a Company, Episode 3





REMARKABLE PRODUCT
Do you know what to look for in a network marketing company to give you the best opportunity for network marketing success?

According to longtime network marketer and student of the industry Michael Dlouhy, there are 5 pillars for success in network marketing: 1) Company Management Experience, 2) Timing in the Company, 3) A Remarkable Product, 4) Compensation plan, and 5) A system for success.

A COMPANY MUST HAVE ALL OF THESE IN PLACE for YOU to have network marketing success for the long term, to know that the company will pay your children and your grandchildren.

Assuming Pillar 1 is in place, without which the others do not matter (see Network Marketing Success – How to Choose a Company, Episode 1), the third pillar is A REMARKABLE PRODUCT.

What does that mean? Why is it important?

REMARKABLE means something STANDS OUT from the crowd of similar products or products in general. Remarkable means that the product or service works, makes people excited and curious and they tell their friends and family about it. Remarkable means that customers want to try it and want more of it and still want to tell others about it. Do you see a pattern here?

What do you think is easier to move in the marketplace – an ordinary product or a remarkable one?

Are we talking about hype? No. We’re talking about something that is different. You might want to check out The Purple Cow by Seth Godin. No one stops to see any of the millions of brown cows out there. But people will stop to see the purple one.

Do you have, did you find - a company with a remarkable product that you are passionate about? Are all the other pillars are in place? If so, GO FOR IT! If not, keep looking. Don't settle for less - don't you think you deserve network marketing success?

Network marketing advertising online: Pay per click

Network marketing advertising onlineNetwork Marketing Success tips publisher

If you are in any network marketing company, you are always looking for leads for your products or your opportunity.

The fastest way to get visitors to your website is what is called “Pay per click” advertising.

What is Pay per click advertising for internet marketing newbies?

When you visit any search engines looking for information, and you type for exmaples: network marketing tips. You get two types of results: organic and sponsored.

The sponsored results are usually either on the top of the page, or on the right side of the page. These are basically advertising similar to newspaper advertising, those people pay to search engines when they get a visitor to their website.

So you can register for an account with google adwords or overture for example, and you bid on how much you are willing to pay for a visitor.

Pay per click is the fastest way to get your network marketing advertising going. It is far cheaper from newspapers and other media, but remember if you do not know what are you doing correctly, it can get you into financial disasters.

Pay per click is getting very popular nowadays, and the bids are getting more and more expensive. You may have to pay 4-5$/lead. This is your specific targeted lead though, you know what did they see.

The effectiveness of pay per click depends on multiple issues:

-Your add: how attractive and compelling, how you type the add
-Your conversion rate

It is recommended if you are serious marketer to test, track your adds, track conversion rates. You need also to track your sponsoring and retention rate.

Obviously, if you are getting leads but you are not prospecting them effectively, and you do not have a system, then the leads may be worthless to you.

I will be sharing with you in the future some tips on writing a good add, which keywords to bid on, how to spy on your competition and other tips if you think pay per click may be appropriate for your network marketing business.

NETWORK MARKETING INCOME


Simply means over a given period of time you have done a service such as working for a cooperation in which you receive a restricted amount of money given to us by the company. Before you are paid however, Federal Taxes, Social Security, State and local taxes are taken from your check. You get what is left. You invest your time, you work for your money.

At 9 a.m you go to your J.O.B and you work until 5 p.m. You check out and go home only to do this again, day after day after day. This is called survival by most standards. Sometimes it takes not only you, but a spouse working to keep a household running. Either of you stop, and the money stops. You may have a few days of sick leave coming, but on the whole you are guaranteed nothing. With today’s unsteady economy linear income is like a yo-yo. You may go to work in the morning and leave in the evening with a pink slip. The money stops.

Life isn’t fair and a person ends up blaming their boss. This will not get your job back. So you go looking for another job because your small savings account will not last you for long. You find another job and do good for a couple years only to have the same scenario happens again. The money stops again. You feel like a slave to money. Linear income does run havoc with your emotions because there is no solid guarantee another paycheck will be coming. There is a possible solution. Take a look at another way to receive money.

RECURRING INCOME

The wonderful thing about recurring income, it is exactly what it says…..it is occurring again and again. Rich people know about this; the only way to have money is make it work for you. Most people who are rich are considered greedy. However, if you could go behind the scenes you would soon understand they have learned at a young age to make money work for you. Unfortunately we are not taught this in school, we are only taught to study hard so we can get a perfect job that pays lots of money. With recurring income your may go on vacation when you want, get up in the morning when you want, get sick, end up in the hospital and the income keeps coming in. Mr. Robert T. Kiyosaki states “It’s like planting a tree. You water it for years and then one day it doesn’t need you anymore. It’s roots have gone deep enough….”
With the right Network Marketing Business, the best Policy’s and Procedures along with a great Compensation Plan, you can build an organization which will last you and your children’s children. There are almost no boundary’s . Your time will become your time, you will be the boss. You can go to bed at night knowing your business will be there in the morning . If you work hard now with an MLM company, you will be able to set back and relax tomorrow because like a tree who has good roots, you will have a solid foundation under your organization and you will not have to worry about a substantial RECURRING INCOME for the rest of your life.

May Success be yours,

Network Marketing and Fear


Network Marketing and Fear

Image what your life would look like when you have broken the bondage of fear!

Fear is one of our basic emotions. It’s an unpleasant feeling of perceived risk or danger, real or imagined. Fear also can be described as a feeling of extreme dislike. Fear of public speaking is common. Let us now talk about how you feel giving a presentation in front potential business partners or product users.

Do you fear something awful, terrible, or publicly humiliating will happen? They almost never occur and even when they do, you can often use it to your advantage. Using humor can be very useful and it is well appreciated by many.

Does your audience expect perfection?

No. They want you to succeed. If you get nervous when you stand up to speak in front of a group ask your audience forgiveness. Be real and honest. Be yourself. Connect with your audience by sharing your own human mistakes and stories.


What if someone disapproves of you are or disagrees what you are saying. It’s Okay. Everyone has a right to their own opinions, judgments and values. You do not have control of their beliefs. You cannot please everyone.

What is the audience looking for?

All they want is two or three key points that will make a difference to them. They want to know how this information will benefit them. Prepared your thoughts and material, arrange for audio-visual aids as necessary and be responsible for the laid out of the room.

So remember, give your audience something of value. When you are talking to people, imagine handing out $100 bills worth of information to them. A few individuals in the group may reject the gift and many will be forever grateful. Speak with the purpose in mind to give or contribute rather than to get. Tell them what you are going to tell them and then tell them. Lastly summarize by telling them what you told them. Always remember synopsis, substance and summary. You cannot control the behavior of your audience but you change your own attitude.

All the best

Network Marketing Success – How to Choose a Company, Episode 2

Do you know what to look for in a network marketing company to give you the best opportunity for network marketing success?

According to longtime network marketer and student of the industry Michael Dlouhy, there are 5 pillars for success in network marketing: 1) Company Management Experience, 2) Timing in the Company, 3) A Remarkable Product, 4) Compensation plan, and 5) A System for Success.

A COMPANY MUST HAVE ALL OF THESE IN PLACE for YOU to have network marketing success for the long term, to know that the company will pay your children and your grandchildren.

Assuming Pillar 1 is in place, without which the others do not matter (see Network Marketing Success – How to Choose a Company, Episode 1), the next pillar is TIMING IN THE COMPANY, Timing in the INDUSTRY - both are extremely important.

Do you receive by snail mail, e-mail, faxes, flyers, phone messages, the person on the street, hype- invitations to join a fabulous, hot new start-up company? Have you been invited to start at the ground floor, the only way is up? There might be a basement! Do you think a tumble down the stairs is worth your recovery time? Michael Dlouhy tells us that 99.99% of start-up companies do not last 2 years.

What can happen with a start-up company in the first 2 years? Mistakes, lack of experience, no real FOUNDATION to the business, no groundwork for success in place, and plans not going as originally envisioned, among other things. What do you think happens when the product or service is not tested enough or just not desired by the public? The business goes nowhere, or has an initial flash and then has a burnout. And how would you feel if you had invested your time and money in this business only to lose your shirt? So much for network marketing success! And how would you feel if you became disenchanted and quit only to see the company flourish later with new people coming in?

Remember we talked about reading the company’s Policies and Procedures before joining a company? If the new company doesn’t have any yet, where’s your contract for doing business? What would happen if you joined the company because you really liked the format and the management changed it because it didn’t work or for whatever reason, and now you don’t like the new format?

Do you think that a better way would be to wait until a company has passed the critical stage – at least 2 years in business – for you and people you affiliate with to have network marketing success? At this point you would also have a good idea that the service or product is wanted by consumers and the timing in the industry for this product or service is not too late – or too early. How can you have network marketing success if no one wants what you have when you have it?

So, doesn’t it make sense to be aware of the timing in the company’s lifeline and timing in the industry before you commit YOUR valuable time and money to an opportunity?

Network marketing tip: how to eliminate your fear


Network marketing tip: how to eliminate your fear

What are you afraid from?

I will teach you in today’s network marketing tip how to eliminate fear forever.

Simply, change your intentions: You are calling your prospect to see if you can help him, to connect with another human being. That’s all…

When you are calling your prospect next time, think who is this person, not what is he going to say.

If you change your intentions, and start calling your prospect with no agenda in mind, it will be easier for you to talk, and your prospect will open up for you.

There are 2 innate fears: fall of falling, and fear of loud noises. The rest of fears are human made fears and should be eliminated.

The second tip to eliminate fear of calling is simply by doing it. When you start thinking and finding excuses, and getting yourself busy, your anxiety increases. Just call, forget about the money, and don’t worry about whether he signs up or not.

Sincerely,

Facing Giants in Network Marketing


Overcoming Obstacles in Network Marketing

Are you facing giants?

Giants have many faces and are unique to you.

They may be a lack of resources. You may not have the finances, connections, training or opportunities you need.

It may be an opposing individual, perhaps a significant other that actively works against you. It’s not easy to stand up against those we love and care about.

It may be intimidating circumstance, This is a situation that is beyond your control. For an example, you think you are too young or too old. Perhaps you stutter.

It may be that you out of your comfort zone. You have never done Network Marketing before. This is new adventure which requires different skills than your other occupation.

Perhaps you are encountering a series of unexpected trails, delays or setbacks and disappointment has set in.

The biggest obstacle of all is unbelief. Unbelief is much more dangerous to you than any other giant. The struggle is with yourself …..your own self- talk and your own set of beliefs.

Why do we have to face giants?

Giants are there as primary growing opportunities. The experience may be painful but it’s the result of the experience that counts. The experience has happened for an important reason: to reshape you from the inside out….. think of it as training for Greatness. It is an invaluable season of preparation. Don’t buy into the lie "it’s too hard" or "it takes too long" or "it’s not possible."

Do you know the single best way to develop into a leader is to take yourself out of your safety environment and away from the people you know and place yourself in a new area such as Network Marketing? If you feel you are in way over your head, have demanding challenges , tons of pressure and face risk of failure or loss….. then the more likely you will emerge a dynamic leader. Be encouraged, for every problem there is a solution, for every window that closes a door will open. Take courage … even when you feel afraid.

So Fellow Network Marketer is there a giant rising up in front of you right now? Mr , Mrs or Miss Warrior, isn’t it time to fight back? Reach for your destination now with all your heart. Make your crossing for a wonderful future is waiting.

WE at Network Marketing Success Team are dedicated to bring you training, mentoring, skills and encouragement

NETWORK MARKETING : COMPENSATION PLANS









COMPS GENERATE MONEY

Before choosing a Network Marketing Business you will want to know the compensation plan. You want the right plan, one that will generate a good income in reasonable time, one that you can build an organization as wide and deep as you want to go. You want a plan simple enough to explain to possible recruits. You want it to be replicable making it easy for your recruits to duplicate what you have done, thus setting up a great down line which will bring in reoccurring income not only for you but them also. Build it once, Build it Big, Build it for your children’s children. Never forget you want a company that also builds from great relationships, creating team work within your organization which will benefit everyone. So what are the major compensation plans and their differences? There is the Stairstep, Breakaway, Unilevel, Binary, and Matrix.

1. Stairstep: This plan is the oldest and is very simple. Each promotion you meet will advance you within a set structure made up of stair steps. Usually, the distributor works on volume, and the sponsor will receive a percentage of that volume. This compensation plan is sometimes combined with other plans.

2. Breakaway: Usually this plan is combined with the Stairstep plan. If you don’t mind building a team or company again and again, this plan could be a challenge. If you do not understand where the breakage is; at what level it is, or what volume amount it is, you can wake up one morning and find your commission check cut in half, making this plan very unpopular. You have to be alert where your down line is at all time. If you have a great distributor reaching whatever monetary limit or recruiting level close to the breakaway point, it drives the sponsor into discouraging any downline person from reaching the point of the breakaway.

3. Unilevel: You can build this plan as wide as you want on your first level. However building to wide can cause you to lose tract of your distributor. This plan will give you a percentage of the volume that is sold, but it leaves little to promotion or rank for yourself. The advantage of this plan is it is easy to explain to a potential distributor. Sometimes this plan can limit your depth of levels and in the payment plan which would discourage a deep sale organization.

4. Binary: Binary plans are limited to two on your first level. Everyone else goes below in depth. The drawback with this plan is you may get a recruit who works hard and you see the potential of a great team member, but because you have your first level filled, you have to place the hard working advancing recruit at a level which will give you little benefit. Sometimes the Binary is also combined with the Matrix in a so called 5 x 9 or 4 X 7 or 6 x 9. The first number being your first level, and the second the depth. This is the size of your organization, period. There is little chance of a great reoccurring income with this plan.

5. Matrix: This plan is sometimes called the “Game” plan. It is the most unsuccessful of all the plans because you are placed wherever the sponsor or the company wants to place you. The only way this plan works well is the products are used mainly by the distributors rather then to customers. Virtually there is not productivity.
There is a new Compensation plan on the horizon that has been out for a short time called the “Australian Two-up”. This plan is structured so that the first two people you recruit are given to your sponsor, everyone else you recruit is yours. Some have been known to keep the strong prospects for themselves giving the weaker recruits to the sponsor. Thus some companies have come up with something called an over-ride, or offering a bonus for the people you give up. Good luck if you can keep up with this one!

DO YOUR HOMEWORK

I have touched briefly on the basic compensation plans in the Network Marketing Industry. Some combinations have been successful. It goes without saying most of us would like a plan which works with our personality; one which will bring us a good reoccurring income without having to rebuild because of breakage, heavy front-end loading (high upfront money’s paid out to join), spillovers which usually do not come, or passing great recruits on to someone else.
There are some great Network Marketing companies with beneficial compensation plans. These companies know their distributors are their biggest asset, so they give them every advantage possible. They have small joining fees, have a lead product, pay out on volume as well as on level of GBP giving each person that works for them a fair and respectful piece of the pie. These companies are a joy to work for. So, before you sign on the dotted line, make sure of the compensation plan. If you don’t understand it, get in contact with us, or someone who can explain it to you. Do your homework first. Just because you like a product doesn’t mean you have to work for the company under a bad compensation plan. Buy the product, but join a Network Marketing company which will keep you in mind at all times during you climb to be successful. We can help you. Our team is working to make Network Marketing the best it can be.

Network Marketing Success – How to Choose a Network Marketing Company, Episode 1

Do you know what to look for in a network marketing company to give you the best opportunity for network marketing success?

According to longtime network marketer and student of the industry Michael Dlouhy, there are 5 pillars for success in network marketing: 1) Company Management Experience, 2) Timing in the Company, 3) A Remarkable Product, 4) Compensation plan, and 5) A system for success.

Without all five of the pillars in place, the chances of long term network marketing success, paying your children and grandchildren, are greatly diminished. However, without Pillar #1Company Management Experience, Michael says that you can forget about having walk-away residual income, and the rest of the pillars do not even matter.

Company management experience – The hallmark of company management experience is integrity. Who do you think has the distributor’s best interest at heart – a company manager who comes from a fortune 500 culture or a manager who has been a distributor in the trenches? Would you imagine that someone who has not been in the field, has not driven for hours to present at a meeting at which only one person or even no one shows up, would ever take away from the compensation plan? Would this person ever do something that would hurt the distributor? Yet this happens in many network marketing companies.

Does a company experience network marketing success and growth without the efforts of the distributor? The distributor makes the company. As a distributor or prospective distributor, do you know who makes the decisions and signs the checks?

How do you know if the company management has integrity? That’s easy. Just read the Policies and Procedures. This is the contract for how you do the business with the company. Distributors: did you ever read yours? Prospective distributors: Do you plan to read yours? Are they even made available to you before you join the company? If not – why would you want to join a company without knowing the terms of the contract? Would you make a large purchase without reading the contract?

Network marketing success depends on putting out effort and takes a significant time commitment. How would you feel if you put out a great deal of effort and spent your valuable time only to have the rules changed on you? How would you feel and how would you make ends meet if you made less money for the same work or even had the fruits of your effort, your own organization within the company and, by extension your paycheck, taken away from you and given to someone else in the company?

Can’t happen, you say? Won’t happen, you believe? It can and it does in many companies. How can you tell if this is possible? READ your company’s or prospective company’s Policies and Procedures.

So to insure you choose a company where you can find a home and have network marketing success, what are you looking for in these policies and procedures? Are they a novel, meaning, many pages? Do you need an attorney to interpret? These are red flags. As you go through them, look for words such as "ongoing sales, ongoing recruiting, ongoing training, " "continuous recruiting". What does that mean? You can’t retire. If you stop selling, recruiting, training – you can lose your paycheck. Didn't you sign up in the first place so that you could build your business and in a few years be able to retire?

Now, might you think that this couldn’t happen to you, perhaps that you’re not a big enough fish in the pond to be noticed? Do you trust that the company would never enforce such a policy? Let me ask you this: why would this clause be in the policies and procedures in the first place?

Also look out for the word "assign" – which can mean that distributors you sign up can be moved or "assigned" to another person. Look for language that says the company can move your distributors anywhere it wants at its discretion; words that say the company can terminate you for any reason with a 30 day notice.

Do you want to have network marketing success, build your business once and be paid over and over again? Do you want to find a home? Do your due diligence and READ the policies and procedures of any company you are with or are considering.

If you have any questions about any language in your policies and procedures or want to get hold of any for a company, please contact me at: mentor@wendyeweber.com.

Network Marketing Success tip: Just Quit!

You may be wondering what the heck is this network marketing success tip is about.

Everybody tells you never to quit. You have learned that leaders never quit and quitters are never leaders.

I agree, but I do believe in common sense also. Quit whatever you are doing that is not working, quit whatever is wasting your money.

Simple formula in network marketing and in any business: You test an advertising or lead generation campaign. If it works, and you make money or you get your money back, then you found a winning formula; keep doing it again and again.

If you start a lead generation campaign, either online or offline, and it wasted your money, QUIT! It is dumb to believe that doing the same mistake again will eventually leads to positive results.

Don't keep banging your head against the wall, guess what is going to break.

If your upline is recommending you to waste your money, stop listening to him. Your upline may be experimenting with your money, he may not be looking for your best interests and let me tell you there are plenty of these uplines.

During the mastermind IV in Houston, Randy Gage emphasized this point: critical way of thinking, never accept anything without analysis.

I hope that helped you open up your eyes,

NETWORK MARKETING BUILDING MOMENTUM







FROM DARK DAYS CAME NETWORK MARKETING
During the dark days of the depression Network Marketing began. In it’s humble beginning it started with one phone call at a time. Business men who understood change began to take note of this simple yet effective way to sell. It was not until the late 50’s when things begin to change. During these years some of the big names in the industry were formed such as Amway and Shaklee. Then during the 60’s giants like Avon, Tupperware, Fuller Brush and MaryKay emerged.
A pattern began to form as the Network Marketing came into being. It was noted when unemployment was up so was the Market. During the latter part of the 50’s when unemployment was 6.8 percent the Market industry flourished, but during the 80’s when unemployment was 9.7 percent the MLM Industry hit a slump. MLM hit a 30-year low at 4.2 percent in 1999. It is predicted that Network Marketing has no place to go but up now.

BABY BOOMERS ON THE MOVE
People born between 1946 and 1964 account for nearly one third of our nations population. Over time the Boomers have become dissatisfied with hype, false claims or business dealings, the way their parents were treated by physicians with overdosing and making addicts out of them. They wanted for themselves better health, straight answers and a good retirement. They also wanted a better life for their children.
Because of the precautions of the Boomers, they have given to their children a learning ability which has given both parents and offspring the insight to reach out for extra income. The Network Marketing Industry has become a possibility. They are becoming well educated with the computer and cyberspace. Statistics tell us some 41 million of these Boomer Offspring will turn 18 in the next seven years. They are obtaining the skills to afford them a better lifestyle then even their parents. There will not be a better time for those of us already in the Industry to have made the preparations, learned the skills and found the right business for us to be ready for this “New Blood” to enter the Network Marketing field.
There is another group with an exceptional number who are participating in network marketing. These 40 plus year olds are willing to invest in a residual income business venture. It is estimated this group will also rise over the next seven years.
Start-up companies are declining while the older more established companies who are changing with the time are in the forefront. Some companies fail to understand with the technology we have our retail sales should be sky-rocketing. Those visionary companies who have realized the awesome power of the Internet realize not only is it advantageous in having it do all the work for us, but is helping us present our products and opportunities faster, less expensive, and to far, far greater number of people. One writer states at the present time there are about seven million people involved in Network Marketing. What about the other 270 million?

NETWORKING GAINING MOMENTUM
Do we know exactly when the big momentum will take off? No! But we can look at the statistics and realize there is coming a major network marketing explosion. If you are involved in a company today, stay involved. Learn every technique, great presentations, be informed on your product because you will be here when the boom happens. Make your decision today. People are looking for leaders who are willing to hang in there when things get tough, people who are willing to put in long hours now so they can spend time with their family and friends tomorrow. If you think you are one of these special people then come along with us, strap yourself in and get ready for the ride of your life. It’s going to be exciting!

May Success be yours,
