People sponsored into a MLM network marketing company are commonly faced with two minor problems.
1. They have no idea how to generate leads or sponsor others into the MLM network marketing opportunity they have joined, and...
2. Even if they make lots of sales and sponsor a few others into their downline, they probably have no idea how they did it and therefore have no knowledge to pass on to those they recruit.
Without knowing HOW they did what they did, they cannot teach it to their downline. This means each new downline member they sponsor is faced with two minor problems...
Sound familiar?
Two minor problems make a bigger problem, and this is why MOST new network marketing entrepreneurs fail. Their upline sponsored them into this MLM program by luck or accident. Their upline, being as ignorant as the new business owner they just sponsored, has no way to train that new business owner on how to sponsor individuals into THEIR downline. The new business owner now has to also rely on luck and accident to build his or her downline. Sometimes diligence and patience, which are rare commodities in someone who has invested money in a network marketing program, will overcome the lack of a system or training program. Sheer persistence DOES pay off in the long run, but most people will drop out long before the law of averages kicks in.
Throw into the mix that EVEN WITH a good MLM sponsoring system in place, network marketing empires and MLM downlines are not built overnight. Many who sign up for a network marketing program start having doubts about their decision as soon as they realize nobody is going to beg to join their program or hand them money.
This is usually about day two of any serious attempt to get the business off the ground.
OKAY, THAT'S THE PROBLEM. WHAT'S THE SOLUTION?
First, anyone who wishes to be successful in MLM network marketing has to either create or learn an effective MLM sponsoring system.
For most of us, the single most effective way to sell a network marketing product or service is through...you guessed it...networking. Most products sold through MLM network marketing programs are not that much better than what can be found at a store or local office. The key reason most people buy is because they know and like the individual involved. Let's face it; do all those people buy Avon lipstick because it is great, or because the distributor is a friend of theirs?
Of course, there are examples of extraordinary products and almost obsessive brand loyalty, but, even so, most people bought the product in the first place because they knew and trusted the person marketing it or were referred by someone who knows them...hence, the term "network marketing".
The most effective way to "network" is to give something of value to a group or community without asking for sales. As people in that group come to know and trust you, they also begin to know about you, including the product or service you are selling. This has three benefits.
