Internet Network Marketing Success

It has been said many times before, the money is in your list. But today I would like to talk about what that really means and how it effects your success online.

How many of you have seen headlines, like “Make $1200 in 24 hours at a push of a button” ? Sounds good on paper and there is more than likely some truth in those types of claims. Of course the person making the claim forgets to mention how big their list is or how long it took for them to build it..

If you want to find real success online you must master the skill of email marketing.

It is not enough to grab someone’s autoresponder messages and hope someone signs up to your business.  Although autoresponder messages are helpful You need to personally inneract with your subscribers. I have yet to meet someone who is  making money in the internet network marketing industry that does not have a list…

There are thousands of programs out there that get opt-ins, this is not the same thing as building your own in house email list..

You need your own autoresponder system to build your own list, the other alternative is to build your list through your web hosting company (which is more complicated to set up and not as practical for most newbies.)

It cost around $20 dollars a month to use an autoresponder service , you have to spend this money, you must have your own autoresponder.. I am telling you right now that the only reason why I make money online is because I have and continue to build my list.  It is an on-goining process every year I am in business my list gets bigger.

It can take months before a person on your email list decides to buy your products.

The one question as a marketer that annoys me most is when a person says to me I got 20 opt-ins and nobody signed up, what gives is this a scam? I have news for these people, getting opt-ins is only 1 part of the equation , and to tell you the the truth its the easy part. The hard part is convincing them that YOU are the person they should be networking with.

My advice–> Get started using an autoresponder, use lead capture pages. The first step to success online is realizing YOU are the product. Once you do that you can begin building your foundation. You will sell products based on your subscribers trusting you.

Tip: Create a blog and attach the rss feed to  your autoresponder this will go along way in establishing credibility with your audiance.

I was asked recently why I market Success University.  I banged my head against the wall for years trying to figure out how to make money online. To tell you the truth not many people are really willing to help a person out. The internet marketing world is cold and it is very hard to get real help. I joined success university because I thought it would help me become a better internet marketer… What I didn’t realize is the road it would lead me down. I was never really interested in network marketing.  Do you know what the #1 most valuable lesson is that I have learned?

If you really want to make money online, network marketing is the quickest way to learn. It enables YOU to personally work with someone who knows how to make money online.

As soon as I joined success university I started talking to people who where very friendly and willing to share what they know about marketing online. Many times these people spent thousands of dollars to learn themselves…

If you are not careful you could easily spend 10 or 12 thousand dollars and not make a dime online. So don’t think you need a lot of money to actually start making money online, but you will need some help and guidance along the way.

It is helpful to leverage another persons success to create your own, but do learn how to effectively brand yourself.

Success University offers value on many levels… Its up to you to take advantage of your membership.

Network marketing is not like it was in the 80’s. However, certain principles never change in the networking marketing niche.

For Example:
•    Giving your prospect value
•    Uplines, downlines  and sidelines working together
•    Working with a well organized team
•    Branding yourself and reputation by helping others

These things will always remain the same. Of course, with today’s technology the face of network marketing has changed forever.

Short Term Money In Network Marketing.

Making fast money in network marketing- there are pro’s and con’s to this line of thinking. Some people are very good salesmen. They have no problem building relationships with prospects, clients and customers. People believe what they say and trust that what they are selling is a good product. They might sell the product or they may focus on the business opportunity part of it. Do YOU think you are this kind of person?

Making quick money is not impossible, but making quick sales is only temporary. 80-90% of the people in the world are not equipped for sales. The real question is if a salesman recruits a non-salesman would the non-salesman make any sales? Does that mean that I should  spend most my time looking for the 10-20% of salesman that are out there?

Long Term Money Making In Network Marketing.

At the heart of network marketing is building a network organization.
The key to building a large organization as quoted by Zig Ziglar, “You will get whatever you want in life if you will just help enough other people get what they want.” In other words, if you will help enough downlines get enough downlines, you are on the road to network marketing success. The key is to help others.

Personal Growth And Self-Improvement

One of the bigger reasons why I recommend getting involved with network marketing is because you can open your mind to positive thinking and really strive to reach your full potential. Finding a company that dedicates its training to this area is not a bad idea. People from all walks of life could use the encouragement. We all could use a fire lit under us from time to time. This is the stuff that takes your business to the next level.
Remember that growth is a journey and not a destination.

Sales Versus Marketing

We are living in the internet age, network marketing has changed.

Network marketing is still very profitable as it was years ago, but the same old school techniques that worked in the 80’s and 90’s don’t get the same type of results today.

The Ironic part of this – When the term ‘network marketing’ was coined, most people would focus on the first word rather than the second. In other words, they go around networking instead of marketing!

Most people who are in network marketing do not have a CLUE what marketing is all about! They go about recruiting friends and family on their name list while deluding themselves into thinking that they are ‘sharing’ or ‘marketing’ their products to people.

MYTH: Network marketers are not in sales, they are merely sharing products with other people

TRUTH: Network marketers who do not have a marketing system in place are actually in SALES.

What they are actually doing is that they are SELLING an idea to someone else. Whether they are selling the product or the opportunity, they are trying to convince someone to change their mind about what they have to offer.

Remember – Sharing is different from selling. It is totally different. If you are my friend and you are having a conversation with me right now, I would share with you about my passion for eating exotic food.

When I’m sharing with you, I’ve no intention to SELL you exotic food (unless I am getting commissions the restaurant that cooks exotic food).

Get the idea? Selling is different from sharing.

So the question is: How do I generate business without ‘SELLING’?

I’m not saying that you do not sell any products. But what I’m saying is that the approach when it comes to marketing versus selling is totally different!

Take a doctor for example.

A doctor sells his or her services. But they don’t go around recruiting patients or sending out flyers and advertisements saying that they are the best gynecologist in town!

When people go to the doctor, they seek the doctor’s EXPERT advice. They listen intensively to every word they have to say and they will take whatever medicine they recommend. (So much different compared to network marketing recruitment, don’t you think?)

The same principle applies to marketing!

Marketers sell products, but not in the way sales people do. A person who markets their business effectively is a LEADER. They are EXPERTS. They don’t go around peddling their wares like a sleazy salesman. They are good at marketing themselves in such a way that they will always:

•    Find the right target market
•    Find the right people to join their downline (and their downlines will listen to them and do what they say)
•    NOT waste their time on the wrong people
•    Attract the right people to them.

Special note to my subscribers: I got this from a private label right product , there is a ton of information out there you just have to look!
