If you’re in a place in your MLM business to start outsourcing for your downline building, you'll find that there are many different ways to do so. Here we will look at how to outsource your downline using autoresponders, using the leverage of SEO and PPC and hiring someone to personally contact affiliates.

Autoresponders to build your downline:

It has been reported that people need to consider a message as many as seven times before they will respond. Using auto-responders and a well put together email campaign for your mailing list will help your marketing and building your downline and is a form of outsourcing.

In your marketing remember to not use a ‘push’ technique, use a ‘pull’ technique. If you ‘push’ information, you will see less interest in your message. Using a ‘pull’ technique as a leader creating interest makes prospects more receptive to your business or product.

Autoresponders leverage your time also. Use automation for support, to send emails to your downline and prospects including motivational emails, marketing tips, and product updates or introductions.

SEO and PPC leverage:

Generating leads is a major issue for your MLM business and having a system that runs on autopilot is a sort of outsourcing.

Search engines are where your traffic comes from and they like a good SEO strategy. Search engines give your site more visibility according to your SEO practices including your content and keywords.

Using a PPC method directs pre-qualified leads to your site according to the bid amount you have placed for the keywords. PPC can generate revenue from your product as well as bring prospects to your site.

Many MLM businesses are using SEO but don’t know about leveraging SEO and PPC together. Using them together ensures qualified traffic for your site. The more skilled you become with your online marketing efforts, the easier it is to build your downline.
