Using Systems in MLM

Most of us have been through the excitement of starting up a MLM business. The extra income can really make a difference in your life. Once you get down to the nitty gritty details of actually building the business, you realize you still have some important decisions to make.

At the very core of MLM is duplication. Ten people using the same successful marketing tactics are much more powerful than one alone. It is also very beneficial if you can develop or become a part of a system to sell your MLM company's primary product. Doing this leads to more money quicker since most MLM's pay on the volume of sales. It can also bring in very dedicated distributors since they were first a customer and now become passionate about the product.

In regard to product sales an example is made here. Suppose you had 100 distributors each purchasing $50 a month. Another organization in the same company has only 30 people, but they average around $300 a month each in product sales. The 1st group moved only $5000 in a month while the 2nd group with only 30 distributors managed to move $9000 in product. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to know who made the most money.

What you want to find starting out in the MLM business is a duplicatable system anyone can use. This may take the form of lead capture pages, autoresponders and the messages preloaded in them, and of course, a reliable source of good leads. Hopefully you can get all these "tools" from your upline, since company created material is not the best available.

It is not a new thing to use a system to promote your MLM business. Practically every MLM company and line of sponsorship have systems available. What you do with the system is what will make your opportunity the special one everyone wants to get involved with.

Let me give you an example of what one MLMer does to make over $1,000,000 a year. He uses the systems available; but he calls them and mails a postcard to his prospects. He only calls when he knows the prospect won't be home and just leaves a generic message on their answering service introducing himself and his company. He signs up more people than you can imagine! He stands out because he uses 3 different modes of contact: the Internet (using a lead capture page along with many followup autoresponder messages), the telephone and snail mail.

Since most people are ONLY using the Internet these days, why not consider standing out from the crowd yourself. Also use postcards and the telephone answering machine method. Teach your downline to do what you do, and you will see your downline grow tremendously.

To really be a success, you must add the personal touch to any "cold" and impersonal system.
