3 Things to Do Everyday for Online MLM Success

Succeeding with Online MLM can be a challenge. Many people dive into it only to discover that it is more work than they thought. One of the keys to making it work for you is to be consistent. However, it can be confusing to know what action steps to take. Here are three things to do every day to ensure your online MLM success.

1. Connect with at least three new people per day. These can be leads that you generate online and then call, or they can be people you chat with on facebook or people that you communicate with via email, skype or some other direct method. However the communication must go both ways. That is to say you can’t just send out a bunch of emails and count it.

2. Post at least one new piece of content per day. This can be a video, blog post, article or other content piece. It works best to create a large amount of content for a few hours each week and then post one piece per day. This avoids people being overwhelmed and still keeps you in their mind since they see new things from you every day.

3. Read and work on yourself every day. Believe that you can succeed and that the law of attraction will work for you. Part of online MLM success is not just taking the necessary actions but also believing that it works and that it will work for you.

The Five Most Important Things about Online MLM

1. It is not a magic pill. You must realize that you will still have to work your business even when doing it online. Taking your MLM business online will not solve all your problems or make an unsuccessful business successful. In fact, it may cause even more problems in your business and increase your failure rate, at least in the beginning.

2. You cannot market your Online MLM business exclusively for free. This is a myth that many people have and it simply is not true. You will have to invest in auto responders, web hosting and some advertising.

3. There is no one best method to Online MLM success. There are many methods that work well and the most successful business owners work a combination of methods and they are always improving and tweaking their plan.

4. Online MLM is not easier necessarily than offline MLM. Many people mistakenly think that running your business online is easier. The reality is that it simply is different but not necessarily less difficult. In fact, depending upon your personality type, it may be harder.

5. You cannot do both Online MLM and offline. This is another big myth. In fact, most Online MLMers also market off-line. An equal balance of both methods is a good idea for most people.

7 Reasons Why an Automated Online System Is Not the Best for Your Online MLM Business

Automated MLM systems that supposedly build your business for you, are all the rage right now. Many people sell you on the idea that you can purchase a plug in play system and then sit back and relax and watch the money roll in. However, while online MLM systems do get some results, they do not and will not ever build your business like your own website or blog. Here are seven reasons why:
1. It’s not unique.
Automated online MLM systems are not unique. In fact, they are in most cases an exact or almost exact copy of each other. While they may be well designed, websites that are copies of each other and where hundreds if not thousands of people use the same one or almost the same one do not work like websites that are unique.

2. Too many people are using them.
The more people who use the same website, the less that site will work. Many people will see many of these sites online and will become bored or immune to what they see.

3. SEO is nearly impossible.
Online MLM system based websites do not rank in the search engines because not only are they nearly all the same, but you cannot optimize them with keywords, descriptions, links and other aspects that are crucial to SEO.

4. They are costly to use.
Even though many of them offer affiliate programs, when you analyze the cost you will find that many of them are a lot more money than a basic website or blog, which in many cases will work less. When marketing online, one of the keys to success is to avoid spending more money on websites and tools than is absolutely necessary.

5. They offer limited personalization.
While I touched on this under they are not unique, the biggest issue is that not being able to include the information you want is a major drawback to online MLM systems. The very best website is one that you can completely personalize and make it yours.

6. You get better results with your own blog.
Wordpress blogs offer the ultimate in SEO, personalization and updated content. Plus they are a lot less expensive. There really is no reason why you should spend the extra money when wordpress will work just as well.

7. There is a lack of flexibility with them.
This is similar to number five. Not only are they not personalized but you really cannot for the most part change what is on them. Even those that do offer some personalization, generally do not allow you to make changes whenever you want.

That said, a company and product specific system is a good thing if it’s well written and well designed.

10 Ways to Monetize Your Online MLM Business

When starting an online MLM business it can take a while to start earning residual income. However, you do have to spend money on your web hosting, domains, autoresponder and other similar items in order to succeed with online MLM, so how do you monetize your online MLM business and make it so that you can afford to spend what you need to while you are working on building your downline which will eventually give you the desired residual income?

Here are 10 ways you can monetize your online MLM business while you are still working on creating a residual income:

1. Use a funded proposal. Mike Dillard’s Magnetic Sponsoring is one of the best for online MLM business owners, however there are others out there as well. These programs help you earn additional commissions that you can use to fund your business.

2. Put adsense on your blog. You want to be careful however, that you are not giving away your traffic and that the ads that appear do not compete directly with your company and business. The best way to make this work for you is to blog about something that is not about MLM or a home business and put your ads on that blog.

3. Find a few select products that are useful to people that you can sell as an affiliate. If you do this right, you can easily bring in anywhere from a couple hundred to a couple thousand dollars more to help fund your business.

4. Retail your products. Depending upon your company’s product line, this may or may not generate the kind of cash flow you need. If there is little or no money in retailing your products you may want to think twice about the opportunity you have chosen. In the long term, the best MLM companies have a product that you can retail and earn an income with.

5. Create your own information product and sell it. This works very well, however, you will need some online marketing experience before you can do this effectively.

6. Teach seminars or give speeches on any topic familiar to you and charge people to attend your event. These can be very effective at not only at generating cash flow, but also at getting the word out about your business.

7. Learn how to monetize your leads by using any of the above methods. Set up a sales funnel so that all of the leads you generate online are given the opportunity to not only join you in your business but to also purchase your products, or make some other kind of purchase that will give you an income.

8. When someone says no to the business, offer them the chance to purchase your products.

9. Ask for referrals from all of your leads. Learn to ask them who they know who might also be interested.

10. Always be looking for new ways to increase your online MLM business’s cash flow.

3. Embrace social media, however be careful not to spend too much time on it. One hour a day is enough. Focus on offering content and value and building relationships. Seek to make at least ten new contacts per day and to follow up to fifty new people on Twitter per day. If you are completely new to Social Media then you will want to start by registering on one site and to mastering that site before moving on to another one. Even then, you will need to limit your activities to no more than four sites.

4. Write at least ten high quality articles and get them published online in as many different locations as possible. Set a goal to write and publish at least five new articles per month for your first year in business. This will get you some great search engine rankings as well as help to establish your online credibility.

5. Develop a You brand online and focus on what you can offer to others and not on what the company can offer. This is crucial to help you distinguish yourself from the other distributors in your company who may also be online.

6. Focus on targeting your marketing of your network marketing internet business on a few select and specific niches. Even though anyone could be interested, you cannot target or market to everyone. You must choose who specifically you will market to.

7. Continue to refine your plan and marketing ever 90 days until you get it perfect and until you are attracting enough people to you.
