The Biggest Struggle Is MLM Lead Generation – Part 2 of 6

February 25, 2010 By 13 Comments

This blog post series, “How To Create Online Income”, has been created to lay out a foundational blue print for nearly any entrepreneur trying to market a product or service online.

If you are like I was nearly 4 years ago, you are grasping for straws trying to figure out why your not bringing in significant profits from your internet business.

(If you haven’t already, review part 1 of 6 of this series)

Now on to part 2 of 6.  This will encompass MLM lead generation or really any form of lead generation for that matter. Lead generation is the “life blood” of your business which results in a niche list builder effect.

If you are on the internet, you absolutely must be a niche list builder.

Meaning you need to be collecting names and emails of interested people when they go to your mlm lead capture page.

This is very fundamental and necessary!

NO LEADS = NO BUSINESS

Some of these people(leads) are going to become customers and/or business associates.  Then you would build a relationship with these people which will be explained in part 3 of 6.

In order to get people to your website you must understand marketing and how to drive traffic to you mlm lead capture page.

**This is the single biggest struggle for internet marketers**

Get a quick summarization of my MLM lead generation video below
As you will see in the video above, advertising effectively and collecting  contact information with the right kind of lead capture page is vital.

As an internet marketer there are multiple ways to generate traffic to your lead capture page to build your list of subsribers.

Here are my 6 Lead Generation strategies:

1. Making videos about you(video marketing), your product or service and syndicating them everywhere.

2. Becoming known on the social media networks like Facebook, Twitter, Linked In, Youtube, etc…..

3. Article marketing like crazy(which can be outsourced)

4. Making your blog the center of your marketing web which is huge in the realm of branding yourself and you service

5. Posting all this content to the social bookmarking sites.(Onlywire.com is a great tool for simplyfying this)

6. Google Adwords or Pay Per Click marketing is very powerful, but has an expensive learning curve so do your homework first.

7.  Have a properly designed mlm lead capture page with a bonus or offer to entice the visitor to opt into the page cannot be overstated enough.

**When starting out I highly recommend learning just one strategy before adding a 2nd or 3rd**

If you understand these forms of MLM lead generation and how to apply them correctly online, you are one step closer to learning how to generate online income.

Are You In The Bottom Of The 9th, It’s 2 Outs, Down By A Run, & Your Injured In Your Network Marketing Business?

February 20, 2010 By 20 Comments

I am going to talk about a historical home run in baseball history that will relate to your struggling network marketing business.  Frankly, this will apply to any life challenge that you may be contemplating quitting.

If you know anything about baseball, you have probably heard or actually seen the Kirk Gibson home run in the 1988 World Series.  If you haven’t heard of this, DON’T STOP reading this post, because you will be inspired.  If you know of this, watch it again.

Here is the scenario:

It was the Los Angeles Dodgers vs. The Oakland Athletics Game 1 of the 1988
World Series.  It was the bottom of the 9th, 2 outs and the Dodgers were
down 3 to 4 in this game.  LA was not favored to win.

The star player of L.A. Kirk Gibson had to leg injuries and had not played in this game AT ALL.
Well, needless to say he decided to step up to the plate in the 9th inning
with no warm up.  He was determined and used his mindset to overcome the
injury and the odds.  He could barely walk, let alone perform.

Well, see for yourself  in the actual historical video footage below
The Greatest Moment In Sports History

Here is the big screen version of the “Mind Over Matter” video of Kirk Gibson

So if your struggling in your online business and your family and friend think your nuts and want you to “throw in the towel”, THINK AGAIN.

I have been in this position and wanted to quit my network marketing business many times.  I have been beaten up, demoralized, and frowned upon by my piers for sticking it out so long.  But little did I know, that I was a “home run” away from turning it around.

So keep in mind that the home run Kirk hit was in Game 1 of 7 of the World Series.  That win set the stage for the L.A. Dodgers to win the entire series.  A momentum “thing” maybe?

So keep “swinging the bat” and taking action, because sooner or later your going to hit a home run that will set the satge for your personal “World Series”.

Spouse Freaking Out? Here’s How To Create Online Income – Part 1 Of 6

February 10, 2010 By 14 Comments

This blog post series, “How To Create Online Income”, is designed to lay out a foundational blue print for nearly any entrepreneur trying to market a product or service online.

If you are I like I was nearly 4 years ago, you are grasping for straws trying to figure out why your not bringing in profits from your online business.  And what makes this even more stressful is that your significant other may be questioning all the time and money your investing because you can’t show them the money!

Never fear my friends, I am going to hand you a proven universal “formula for success” that is applicable for most online businesses.  This is going to be like a link in the chain, so make sure your links are strong or the chain will fail.

Let’s start with a video summary of Part 1 to this formula

How To Create Online Income Part 1 (big screen version)

As you will see in this video, advertising effectively is probably the were most entrepreneurs fall short.  Either the person isn’t trained correctly on how to do this or they don’t apply themselves enough and quit before results start to come in.

Keep in mind that 95% of your advertising efforts will be ineffective.  This is an industry average and therefore we must understand this.

The main form of advertising we are accustomed to experiencing is what I call “interruption advertising”.  This is when a t.v. commercial comes on or a radio ad hits us in the face when we are actually tuned into something else.  It interrupts us and does work for the larger companies.

As an internet marketer there are 3 other forms of advertising we should be focusing on.

1.  Direct response marketing -  This is when we are trying to get a consumer/prospect to take a direct action from an ad we have exposed them too.  An example of direct response marketing is having a web page direct the viewer to either click on a link or fill out an opt in form.

2.  Permission Marketing – I really like this one.  In this case we are asking permission to market to this person.  So when we are asking for a person to enter their name and email into our web page form to get on our email list, we are asking their permission to send them more ongoing information(aka marketing).  So with permission marketing we are allowing the prospect to decide if they want us to advertise to them.

3.  Attraction Marketing – This is the ultimate form of advertising in my opinion.  This catch phrase was invented by Mike Dillard and is the foundation for thousands of online business owner’s success.  This is the art of positioning yourself in such a way that people are attracted to you and contact you for more information.  This is achieved by taking a leadership role, giving value, and solving people’s problems with solutions.

If you understand these forms of marketing and how to apply them correctly online, you are one step closer learning how to generate online income.
