MLM Blog – Network Marketing Blog

While I was in Ixtapa, Mexico last week, Mike Dillard released his Magnetic Sponsoring 3.0 System. I haven't had a ton of time to go through the new site and information but I will fill you in on a couple of things that caught my eye...

1. A complete system to track the leads that you create with Magnetic Sponsoring 3.0.
2. 7 New Videos have replaced the original 10 email Boot Camp.  The videos are free and you can download them here: Mike Dillard's 7 Free Magnetic Sponsoring 3.0 Videos.
3. The MagneticSponsoring.com forum is loaded with helpful and knowledgeable marketers, some of them earning Millions a year...and they are willing to answer your questions!

For those of you who have no idea what in the world I am talking about, let me give you a little bit of history.  Mike Dillard was involved in Network Marketing for several years and really struggled.  Then he discovered the world of Internet Marketing and was one of the first Networkers to put together a system known as a "funded proposal".

The idea is simple.  Give something away of value, (like 7 free training videos) but ask for some contact information in return.  Once you gain the contact information you can then offer a low cost (usually information based) product that will help you fund your proposal.

You take the money you make from the sales of the information product and fund your advertising.  It's a bit like having your leads pay you to be your prospects.

I used this type of system to create nearly 3,000 leads and over $9,000 over the last few months.

Your proposal is generally going to involve the Network Marketing company you are involved with, keeping in mind that not everyone who requests the information or buys the information product will be a potential business partner for you. 

There are a handful of categories that people fall into:

• Happy With A Good Company
• Happy With A Bad Company
• Unhappy With A Good Company
• Unhappy With A Bad Company
• No Company

I'll let you consider which ones would be good prospects for you to discuss your business with.

The 7 Magnetic Sponsoring 3.0 Videos will give you a great overview of Network Marketing on the Internet.  Again, you can get access to the free videos here: Mike Dillard's 7 Free Videos.

MLM Software Guru:

A little while ago the MuilitLeveler ran an article about providing a blog on a MLM replicated website. They talked about the legal issues, pro's and con's. I wanted to expound on this idea, thinking it is a wonderful idea and the problems that might arise from it. Also I wanted to talk about how this can help an individual distributor and corporate make more money.

The biggest problem with replicated websites is flexibility. Most replicated websites look the same and have the same content. There are a few providers out there trying to push the boundaries on that, Ti4 Technologies is one of those companies. But the problem is with the same content, what sets one distributor apart from another. The answers is nothing. So if you are looking to become a distributor in a specific company doing a search in Google will return the same website owned by a thousand users. So how do you pick?

If the corporate company let you put a blog on that site, by reading what they have to say and how they say it, you could get a good idea on who that person was. Also tying that blog to your site lets you do additional search engine optimization on your site to set you apart from all the other distributors.

The biggest problems with this, for corporate would be to make sure that no claimes where made on those blogs that where against corporate policiy. The software provider would need to provide a way to make sure this didn't happen. As the Internet grows and blogs become more prevalent, network marketing companies are going to have to find ways to regulate and use them.

I'll bet you didn't know that we have an MLM Software Guru as our friend, did you?
