MLM Truth - A GREAT MLM Presentation Helps!
May 15th, 2004Link: http://www.internetnextstep.com/training
While not being absolutely necessary for success in an MLM company, a GREAT MLM Presentation can sure help you and your team more than you can imagine.
I have built downlines in companies both with a good presentation and without a good presentation and I have to tell you it is SOOOOOOO much easier to build a huge team when your company has a good MLM Presentation.
If you company doesn't have a Powerpoint MLM Presentation or a Flash MLM Presentation for you to use, you should take the initiative and learn how to do powerpoint and see if you can't get them to work with you on it! Better yet, if you can, just get them to build one so their company can do better overall!
A good Corporately designed MLM Presentation can help the duplication of our efforts go so much more easily than if you don't have a great proven track to run on with an MLM Presentation.
Flash MLM Presentations can be great to share with people over the Internet, or burn them to a CD and play them for the people from your laptop, or even their computer. Don't have a computer, take your CD to the local Internet Cafe and you can show it there, Flash MLM Presentations are nice an simple as long as you have Flash installed in your browser. Flash MLM Presentations can go so far as to even include voice so they can take the place of showing a video.
Powerpoint MLM Presentations can be excellent for you as well, not as well suited to viewing on the Internet, but still good.
Powerpoint MLM Presentations are great for your company as they can actually burn slides and sell them to you as a sales aid so you can do perfect corporate approved Hotel presentations with just a simple Slide Projector.
If you company is interested in doing an MLM Presentation but doesn't know where to start, our company can help.

MLM Truth - Product or Business?
May 14th, 2004Link: http://www.internetnextstep.com/training
You will have greater success approaching people on how to make money rather than how to save money with the benefits of your products. Product moves as a result of showing the business.
Most Distributors belief is strongest in the product and weakest in themselves and the industry of Network Marketing, therefore they attempt to build a network quickly by approaching prospects with the Product rather than showing the concept of leverage and the sales compensation plan.
Be honest with yourself, the first time you saw network marketing, did you obtain that excited insomnia from thinking about the wonderful product, service or membership you were buying?
Or, Like most, did you get excited about the possibilities of having a few friends join you in purchasing the product that could grow to many purchasing the product and create a residual income?
If that’s what you lost sleep over, then why do you spend your time attempting to grow your network by selling the benefits of the products? Talk to people about making money rather than saving money.
Here is a little about why the philosophy of showing the product can actually result in less product sales than showing the business. If you show the product first, and your friend is absolutely terrified and negative about the MLM industry, he will be afraid to be honest with you about the products. You see if he knows this is one of those pyramid things, his thinking is, if he tells you the products are great you are going to try to sign him up in one of those pyramid deals, and he hates those!
So you see, he has to tell you the products are not any good. And that.....chips another chip at your belief.
If on the other hand, you present the business to him properly, you will also do a good job of showing the products. Then if he tells you he is not interested in the business, he is likely to buy the products without the above concern. If he really really loves the products after that, he may just come around to the business concept. You see, you have nothing to lose and everything to gain, by showing the business first.
Also understand that this issue is another of those issues that is widely debated in the industry. I have to tell you that of the money earners I have met, and I mean over $100,000 per year, all of them so far tell me they lead with the business. Of the many many people who argue with me to lead with the product, so far none of them are big money earners.

MLM Truth - Website Traffic
May 13th, 2004Link: http://www.internetnextstep.com/training
Wow! I have to tell you, since writing a few short articles about Amway / Quickstar on my blogs, my site traffic has tripled.
Don't know if it is people looking for support or mudslinging, but sure know a lot of traffic has been found due to those articles in my Blogs.
Truth about MLM, START YOUR OWN BLOG!! They are powerful methods of communicating with your groups or potential partners.
Don't fill them with useless prospecting hype though or it will be a futile effort. Give good solid honest information or fun stuff you did in your life and develop a relationship with your readers.
I am sure if anyone is intersted in your opportunity, they will ask you!
As a side note, I am not affiliated with any MLM's as a distributor so please don't ask me what one I am in. I only am involved corporately through software and automated systems and MLM Consulting.
Make it a GREAT day!
MLM Truth - Retailing Products
May 12th, 2004Link: http://www.internetnextstep.com/training
Do you need to retail products? It seems MLM companies are doing their best to ensure you don't ever have to retail. Well here is a HUGE UGLY TRUTH OF MLM! If you don't have to retail products or somehow have product move to end users instead of just business builders, you are probably in a company that will have the regulators shut it down.
Melelauca seems to the closest company to not requiring retailing on first glance, but I think the way they get around this is that a lot of their members have stated their interest in just being customers in the paper work. I think possibly this is what keeps them legal without causing people to buy bottles of stuff they don't need and sell it to others. Instead they just sign up the new person as a customer and have that person buy direct.
A good model as it seems to be tried and true.
Companies who openly write that you never need to retail a product are likely to be attacked by the regulators just about the time they get big enough to be paying you a big paycheck.. Tread very carefully when you are being approached with a company that openly promotes on not needing to retail any products.
Be even more afraid of companies who don't have any autoship or purchase requirement at all as they will go nowhere!
Another method that our MLM Software allows is that you can use your replicated website to sell products to people and have them shipped direct to them. Your account is credited with the retail markup and your customer gets the products shipped directly to them. When you have retailed enough products that it exceeds your autoship point requirement, the system can be set by you to cancel your autoship for any months that you are qualified through retail sales.
The best part is, your retail customers can also set themselves up on an autoship. Retail enough, and you will never need to purchase yourself if you don't want to. Though we recommend that if you are not committed enough to your company and their products to use them regularly, you probably won't meet with any success in the business, so USE THE PRODUCTS and SERVICES of your company!
Your testimonial is the best testimonial!
Retailing or selling of products and services to the end user is a requirement of law for your company to not be a pyramid. Don't get excited by companies who promote how you don't need to do it if you want a company that will last and you can actually earn a residual income on.
