Multi Level Marketing is a very popular type of internet marketing. The general idea with multi-level marketing is you sign up to act as an affiliate for MLM companies, and you market their services, or products. Every time you sell something you earn a commission. Another component is creating a team, or downline, and you recruit other marketers to join.
You'll also earn commissions from sales made from your team members, or downline members. Additionally, if extra downline members, that your recruit brings in, makes a sale, then you'll get a smaller part of that, too. The general goal for most is to build a large downline so it gets to the point where it's not necessary to actually work, anymore. Here are some tips for finding success with multi level marketing.
Teach your recruits, but never do their work for them. We all have to stand on our own, so that includes your downline, too. Your downline will never succeed if they can't do for themselves, and you'll be forever recruiting new people - until you decide to quit. You want to be a strong leader for them, encourage them to follow your examples as well. Anything different and you're just doing affiliate marketing with some extra duties associated with MLM. If you want to be a leader and prosper in MLM, then do your job as a leader. It may be tempting, but avoid thinking people will be lining up to buy from you just because you distributed some freebie product samples. It's possible that people will think well about you, but these free samples in no way will ever guarantee a sale. Before handing out the free offers, think about that person before doing it. You want those free samples to be what knocks them over the line from a maybe to a yes. Never offer any free samples immediately after meeting them and it's too soon. You can tell when someone is weighing something, and they're leaning one way or the other. But also only give them out when it's really necessary, so you can conserve funds.
Don't try to bully people into being a part of your down line. If anyone at all ever expresses the desire to leave your team, then be polite and say goodbye. Anything less than that and it just doesn't turn out well. If people think you're just a bully, then eventually you'll discover you're all alone. You may suffer severe business setbacks as a result. Be sure to just let people make-up their own minds, express their feelings, and make their own decisions. People will respect you much more if you do this. {You absolutely are able to make very serious money with MLM if it's done correctly and with the right perspective. So many people go into it thinking that it is a get rich quick scheme. It can appear to be like that, for sure. But by and large, it's a totally legal and legitimate business opportunity.
MLM is exactly like other businesses, if you do your part to learn, market, work hard, and persist - you can be just as successful as anyone else.
One common fallacy is all MLM's are pyramind schemes - not true.
They do have some things in common, though. One huge difference is an MLM company is a legitimate business plan and structure. So many people get duped from the belief they don't have to work to make money with MLM's. But interestingly, the one way to make money is through education, dedication, and working hard. You'll find that the more you contribute to your success, the more success you'll have.
