Why You Should Use The Internet To Build Your Multilevel Marketing Business
There are many people online that will tell you that building your MLM online will solve ALL of your problems.
Whilst it will solve most of the problems, you can’t escape that Network Marketing is all about personal relationships. Personally I don’t think there can be a substitute for actually getting on the phone with a prospect or meeting them face to face. You couldn’t hide behind a computer and gain maximum success.
The internet does make a very good communication tool where you can communicate on mass. Email, videos, audios, webinars, conference calls, social networking sites are all great ways to contact your prospects and team members. Nothing is better than a telephone call or face to face meeting though. Unless you develop some good recruiting skills and relationships, I’d say you were going to have a tough time growing a sizable team whether you are using the internet or not. Of course you may get lucky and recruit an MLM superstar.
But let’s look at the 2 BIG problems the internet can help us with immediately 1) Lack of leads, 2) Lack of cash flow.
If you’re going to follow this route then you are going to need a scientific sales funnel, one that’s proven to work. You will find many different ones to choose from and not all are designed for network marketers, I think a lot are designed for affiliate marketers. If you can find a funnel that is designed by someone that who has experiential knowledge of how to sponsor in the MLM industry, then you are on to a winner.
You also want to make sure that you are able to set it up so that it advertises you. From the very first time someone lands on your page they need to start becoming familiar with YOU, not the guy that designed the system and not a company.
OK so you find a good system, what’s next? You need to master traffic generation The number one reason that people fail online is probably a lack of quality targeted traffic. Many can’t get any traffic at all. From my experience I’ve only found two ways to get traffic to my website, either pay for it or work hard for it. Personally I worked for traffic and started my own blog. It was hard work but well worth it.
Once you’ve mastered generating lots of traffic you should be getting some leads. Its then time to work on optimizing your sales funnels to increase and maximise your conversions.
Obviously the next step is to begin generating a cash flow from your sales funnel. This can be affiliate commissions for products you recommend to them, the good thing here is that you can actually make money even from people who don’t join your MLM. Of course you want to work hard to convert your leads into active distributors in your team.
To achieve this you are going to need personal relationship and recruiting skills.
If you want to build your MLM online, then it can be done. But you still need to be willing to put in the human effort required of personally connecting with people.
