Mlm Business Opportunity

MLM Business Opportunity- Is Your Upline A Recruiter or A Sponsor?

Tuesday, October 14th, 2008

James here again. While we all keep hearing about all the outlandish claims of how easy it is to may 1000s of dollars in an mlm business opportunity, the facts still remains that 95%-97% of the people who join mlms fail. It’s always show me the money time and nothing else with many mlm companies

In my first mlm business opportunity, i was told to get my list of 100 people, talk to all my family and friends and pitch my deal. Of course i had all the tapes of my upline that i could buy.I got on “training calls” that taught me what to say but never really ever trained me so that i could teach others.

In your mlm business opportunity, if all you have been taught is about what you can do and not how you can do it, you have a recruiter for an upline. If all you have been taught about your network marketing business is to “show the plan and show the money”, you have a recruiter for an upline. If you have an upline in which is all about the hype and not about the help, you have a recruiter for an upline.

A sponsor is different. It is a person who looks for ways to help you. A sponsor provides the training for you to develop the confidence, the determination, the credibility and commitment that it requires you to be successful as a network marketer. A sponsors teaches you how to be successful to the point that you can teach others how to be successful.

Success in your mlm business opportunity is really not so much about how great your product is or even how great of a compensation plan but it rests on if you have a recruiter or a sponsor.

MLM Opportunity-It’s So Easy!

Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

Hi, James again. I was looking through my email at all the offers for online business. Every MLM opportunity is so easy a 5th grader can do it! If MLMs are so easy, then why do we still have the 95% failure rate. Many people are ready to cry out scam because they have difficulty making any money.

An MLM opportunity is work. It’s not just any type of labor but it’s labor under correct knowledge. That was the first thing i learned about network marketing. It’s work using the correct methods in a consistent manner. So with that being said, it’s easy to work and it’s easy not to work your business.

One mistake many people make is following ”old school” marketing tactics. One which comes to mind is how some network marketing companies are still telling their people to make a list of names of family, friends and pitch their deal to them. The problem with that idea is that it has two things most people will have a problem with. 1) Most people hate to sell! Only 5% of the population are good at sales. 2) Most of our friends and family are not the targeted market. They are not looking to buy into a business proposition.

No matter how hard you work over your family and friends, the fact of the matter is that you have already failed even before you started because of the wrong strategy. Some people continue to jump from MLM to MLM with the wrong strategy or incorrect knowledge and finally give up because of bad (LUCK) . An MLM opportunity can be easy, it’s work but it’s easy when you Labor Under Correct Knowledge.(LUCK) Visit the link below if you want to change your LUCK.

MLM Business Opportunity- A Good Plan B For Your 401K

Friday, September 19th, 2008

ble It is frightening when we hear of large financial institutions failing like AIG, Lehman Bros. and others that send the stock market tumbling along with our 401ks. For many our 401k is the only plan we have for retirement on a residual income. But could an MLM business opportunity be a good plan B?

The answer to that question is yes, if you select the “right one baby”. Any business venture has a high rate of failure but to do nothing is not an option. You must become pro-active about your financial future and develop a plan b. Your plan b can not just be watch and wait on the stock market for things to get better. An MLM business opportunity can be a viable back up to a “shakey” stock market. Here are a few keys to finding a good plan B for your 401k.

1. For A good plan B, you must find an MLM business opportunity that is for the masses and not just the few experienced top network marketers. A company for the masses has a product for the masses. The product would be one of high demand. One where people are standing in line to get their hands on. Baby boomers have health issues and health would be a good place to start. Health problems brought on by the stress of our economy. Health is said to be a billion dollar industry.

2. You must find a MLM business opportunity with the right product price point. What i mean by that is the product must be affordable for the masses and not just the top 2-5 %. Travel is hot now but how many folk can afford to travel when their 401ks are dwindling? So find a company with a product that is in high demand and affordable to the masses.

3. You must find a company that has a compensation plan for the masses that is ethical, legal and fair to the masses. The compensation plan must pay good to the new marketer as well as the expert. It must have equal opportunity for all. Your residual income must be secure and not subject to radical changes in the company’s policy and procedures.

An MLM business opportunity can be a good plan B for your 401k if you diligently study the MLM company before you join. Visit this link to review an MLM company that is a good plan B:

MLM Opportunity- Don’t Let Spill-Over Bowl You Over!

Thursday, September 11th, 2008

James again, i know many networkers including myself have been influenced to join an MLM opportunity because of the “spillover”. It sounds so logical and by the numbers you can see that the sooner you joined that home business, the sooner you will have tons of money from others efforts. Well dear friend, don’t let “spillover” bowl you over.

In any mlm opportunity which claims that the faster you join the more “spillover” you’ll have is true but if you don’t pay attention to the pay plan, then you will find yourself losing money with people in your downline. Why is that possible. Many home business opportunities use a matrix as the center of their pay plan. This allows them to make claims that you will make thousands of dollars a month if you fill up your matrix that holds thousands of referrals. The sad fact is that in the network marketing industry, the average networker only sponsors 2.7 people. How could you and i without a list of 2 or 3 thousand people ever fill up a matrix with only a 1000 people.

Now with that in mind, an MLM opportunity may hype the “spillover” of referrals coming from your upline or your upline’s upline that you will assume you will make some money. But many MLM compensation plans are set up for the heavy hitters who bring 1000s of followers into the network marketing company and receive “FAT” bonus checks from the bonus pools plus fast start bonuses that you will never qualify for. So you got “spillover” but you didn’t get paid!
Well you may get paid but usually, it won’t cover your monthly auto-ship and you are in the hole from the get-go. You are going to have to bring a team or build a team of people you know, like and trust to ever make it in this the network marketing industry.

There is a FREE ebook; “How To Get Rich From Any MLM Program” that will assist you in making the right decisions and avoid being bowled over by the hype of spillover. Visit this link for the FREE ebook, http://www.iwantafreecopy.com/r/successmagic/rich1.html

Why The Best MLM Business Opportunity May Be Leading You Nowhere

Monday, August 25th, 2008

It seems as though everyone you talk to in network marketing has the best MLM opportunity but if that is true, why does 95%-98% of the people who start a business fail? Every time i talked to someone they always want to tell me about how good of deal they are in. I was in what i thought was a great mlm but it was leading me nowhere. Here are 3 reasons why that might happen.

1. Your upline may be sincere but could be using “OLD SCHOOL MLM tactics.

I had a great upline and he was a very sincere and caring person. We are still friends to this day. My upline told me to make a list of 100 names of people that i knew at sometime in my life and give them a call and tell them i was in the best mlm business opportunity they could imagine and would they come and join. The only thing i ended up with using this approach was less friends. When my friends said no to the business then i was taught to back-end sell them the product and get some sympathy sales. I had been taught to be a product expert and i love the product i was promoting. In fact i had many customers but not enough to keep from going deeper in credit card debt month after month. Yes, i had sales but was never in profit. Some people resorted to selling product on Ebay just to try and break even which was not legal with this company. I was in business with a great product going no where because i didn’t know how to market .

2. Your MLM company may not own the software.

You may be in the best mlm business opportunity possible but if the company dosn’t own the software, it may be leading you nowhere. One thing about MLM company software is that due to the high start-up costs and the uncertainty of success no matter how good the product might be, company owners cut costs by renting the software. When you rent software, you don’t have the means to alter it. This may lock your MLM company down. Have you notice that many companies have home pages for the affiliates that just show a page full of products and nothing else and the home pages are not customizable for your use. If the company wants the software modified for what ever reason, they usually have to change the compensation plan which means the average networker will take a hit. Many networkers have lost $1000s of dollars because of this sad fact.

3. Your MLM company may only have one product and don’t own the manufacturing rights to the product.
Many MLM companies don’t manufacture the product that they are promoting but are just wholesale distributors of a product under a particular name brand. I worked for a large company that made corn flakes. We not only made our name brand but also other lesser name brands that we shipped to them to sale and distribute under their name brand. The same thing can happen in the network marketing. Your company may be the best mlm business opportunity on the planet, but it may not be the sole manufacture of your favorite product. If the price your company pays for a product increases in a way it can no longer purchase the product in bulk and make a profit, then you lose. Your company no longer has a product to distribute. Is your mlm company a distributor or the manufacture and distributor of your favorite potion?

Conclusion: In order for you to make sure that you don’t end up with nothing but debt and lost time, prepare yourself to be a network marketer that is able to market any product and run any mlm business successfully. The greatest asset you have in order to make money online and not lose it is you. Work at becoming the best network marketer that you can possibly be and take control of your financial future. After all, why spend all that time and money that may lead to no where. Visit the link below to make sure:

MLM Business Opportunity-A Little Short On Cash Building Your Business?

Saturday, August 23rd, 2008

Building your home business can truly be a costly one.Each time you turn around you seem to spend every dollar you have on advertising and not getting ahead in your business. It basically will nickel and dime you to death.

You really can’t get ahead in your business if you have to spend a ton on advertising, especially when you are first starting out.Wouldn’t it be nice if someone could show you basically step by step how you can build your home business without spending a ton of money while doing it?

Well, there is some good news.

I recently came across something that I think will really help your business as it has mine.It is a videos series by a guy named Mike Dillard called “Building On A Budget”.
In these videos Mike shows you how to build any home business for $500 or less.

I took these free videos and purchased his ridiculously low priced book, and within two weeks of applying the techniques he teaches and am now getting as many as 10 new qualified prospects per day.

The best part is that I did not spend much money while doing it.
Now I have the tools to grow my business without getting nickel and dimed to death.
You can get free access to these videos by going here…

MLM Business…How To Stop Spinning Your Wheels In Your MLM Business

Tuesday, August 19th, 2008

MLM success has been shown to be very elusive as demonstrated by the 95%-98% failure rate of MLM distributors Research shows that in 80%-90% of cases, success in the network marketing business comes as the result of talking with a friend or family member. That surprises me, but it doesn’t blow my mind. People will readily follow the suggestions of someone know and trust. If it’s not a person they trust, chances of them following their recommendation is nada.

In order to find success in your MLM business and stop spinning your wheels, you really need a network people you know to talk to. If you don’t have a network to start,you’ll have create your network in order to have any chance of success in the network marketing business.One of the ways to meet like minded people is by interaction with other network marketers in forums or other social media networking Web 2.0 websites to develop meaning relationships through the power of attraction marketing

It’s just like when the NBA(National Basketball Association) holds a draft for teams to draft players to fill a need on their basketball teams. Wella player thats in the draft is a basketball prospect because they are proficient a basketball. But, before they draft the player, the organization not only looks at the basketball skills but they develop a relationship to see if the prospect “fits” the system or the culture of the team.

A prospect for a MLM business in the same way must be proficient in business and you must develop a relationship with your prospect that cultivates trust. You cultivate trust by offering the prospect something that brings value into their life. You then are able build your network with MLM prospects who value your friendship and will follow your system. Without a network. Network marketing success is impossible without a network of like minded people working as a team.

Best MLM Business Opportunity - No Opt-In Fee-No Fast Start Package

Friday, August 15th, 2008

Hey there. This is James Byrd from Kalamazoo, Michigan, and I wanted to show today that even if you have the so called best mlm business opportunity that you can start off losing money from day one by paying an opt-in fee to join and making a back-end purchase of a “fast start package

Sadly, most people that attempt a multi-level marketing program often end up losing money. Why does this happen? For the same reason that I did. I didn’t have enough mlm leads, I did not have enough training, I couldn’t keep my prospects inspired, My friends and family thought the whole idea of network marketing was insane. I had really bought in to the “hype” that I was in the best mlm business opportunity

Many, if not 99% of network marketing programs require that the user pay an up front fee. This fee is also known as an opt-in fee. People that have little or no knowledge about the network marketing business often pay front costs, and some even get back-ended with the “fast start” package that put’s them farther in the hole. Then after a little frustration due to a lack of a proven system to market their business, they quit like 98% of new prospects do. After all, the person that recruited them has already got paid and there is absolutely no incentive to help the prospect..

However, when there is no opt-in fee, your upline makes only gets paid when you are successful and making money as well. That means that they will have a genuine buy in you and your success. This removes the threat of having a sponsor that just takes your money and bails out on you quickly thereafter, which now happens at an alarming rate..

If the best MLM business opportunity is really the best, you ought to be able to give a network marketing business a shot without having to buy anything, pay an opt-in fee, get a “fast start package that really is a “fast exit” package or put yourself at any risk. The “fast start” package is a “kiss of death”, once an upline has that bonus, it’s lights out for you.

Thanks for reading. For more information on how i can help you increase your wealth, with no opt-in fee, no “fast start” visit www.jamesbell.ws.
