Secrets of MLM Online Success-Use Pay-per-Click to get Prospects to a Seminar in your City.

Your MLM company is planning a big seminar or marketing
plan presentation in your area but you have no one to drag
out…you've approached everyone you know and lots you didn't
know. People cross the street when they see you coming.

How on earth can you find some new prospects to invite?

Find them online!

If you want to do it this way then your best online
prospecting option is to use Pay-per-Click.

Open your Google AdWords site (or enroll for one if you
don't have one already…it's free), write your ad etc. and
then go to "Edit Campaign Options" and go down to
"Countries and Territories" on the bottom right hand side
of the page and click on "Edit" .

Now you'll be at the "Location Targeting Options".

At the top of the page above the "Countries" box you'll
see a long green bar with this inside: "Your campaign's
location targeting option: Countries and Territories" and
following that will be a link that says: "Edit". Click this
link.

You can now choose whether you want your PPC ad to be
shown in a particular State or you can select a specific
city or several cities.

Now when your ad runs only people in the selected
geographic locations will be able to view it. And of course
you'll get a much smaller response, but your traffic will
be geographically targeted.

Now that you've limited the traffic to the location of your
seminar you can afford to increase the amount you're
willing to pay up per click for the most favorable keywords.

In other words; you'll get less traffic at your website,
it will cost you more per click but they'll be worth more
because you have targeted them to the location you want.

As well as your MLM efforts you'll need a Funded Proposal.
If you want to stay in the game long term you'll want to be
making some sideline money early on to fund your marketing
programs.

Secrets of MLM Online Success-Do you need a Squeeze Page to Recruit Online?

If you want to use your online prospecting campaigns to
build an MLM organization either in your City or State
(which you can do with "City Targeted" Pay-per-Click) or
even World Wide you are going to need a list to email.

There are two schools of thought here:

1.You send your prospects directly to your company's
website (or one created by yourself or your upline) where
they can immediately view your marketing material.
Hopefully this website has an autoresponder so the visitors
can be added to your list.

2.You build your own Squeeze Page and allow your visitors
to opt-in to your list from there. Then you expose them to
messages encouraging them to visit your presentation site.

There are advantages and disadvantages to both of these
options.

In "Option 1" your prospects get to immediately review
your marketing material and make a decision…so you get
recruits faster…maybe?

Your company or upline then forwards them a series of
follow up emails…usually 10 to 16.

There are 2 problems I find with this approach:

The first is that your company's or you upline's email
follow-up series are too generic and too focused on
attempting to "convince" your prospects that they should
join.

This becomes very annoying after a very short while and
you lose prospects who after all were interested enough to
review the offer.

The second problem I have found with this approach is that
your prospects are not "double opt-in" to your list and so
could get you or your company's email shut down for CanSpam
infringements. These infringements can carry very hefty
fines as well. You don't really want to go there.

When you take say 1000 prospects from the list you have
generated this way you now need to find an email provider
who is willing to allow you to work with a single opt-in
list. A challenge but it can be done.

As well as your MLM efforts you'll need a Funded Proposal.
If you want to stay in the game long term you'll want to be
making some sideline money early on to fund your marketing
programs.

Secrets Of MLM Online Success-A unique way to get Prospects to a Business Presentation

Here's the scenario we covered in our earlier article:

Your MLM company is planning a big seminar or marketing
plan presentation in your area and you've chosen to run a
Pay-per-Click campaign to generate some prospects to invite.

You're definitely going to need a "Squeeze Page" to make
this work but we'll get into that later. If you click on my
link at the bottom of this page I'll send you some free
software to build a Squeeze Page.

What's the best way to go about this?

To make your campaign cost effective you'll want to be
very specific in your ad about the fact that this is a
seminar. You don't want tire kickers. You want people who
like to go to free seminars.

You'll want to give yourself lots of lead time too if this
is your first campaign in this area. If it's for a
marketing plan presentation you may want to wait to see
what sort of traffic you can get and how long it takes to
show up, before booking the hotel room for your meeting.
This is a trial and error process until you find the
formula that works for you.

Your ad might say something like this:

Life Changing Seminar
Will be Held In "Your-City"-Free
The Secrets of Financial Freedom
http://www."your website goes here".com

You may hate this ad so write one of your own. Or use my
ad if you want. Chances are you'll be the only one in your
city doing this.

And make the ad non-specific. You don't have room in a PPC
ad to get into locations and topics etc.

Once you get this going to your liking you can use it
continuously, building a list of prospects in your area who
are interested in seminars.
You'll always have someone to invite!

As well as your MLM efforts you'll need a Funded Proposal.
If you want to stay in the game long term you'll want to be
making some sideline money early on to fund your marketing
programs.

Secrets of MLM Online Success--How does your Company's Compensation Plan Stack Up?

In earlier articles we've been talking about the
attributes of the "Ideal MLM Company" for Online promotion
of your MLM business, in terms of the ease with which a
prospect can be recruited online with no personal
interaction with you or the company except via the website.

Now let's look at another factor that comes into play big
time. What are the chances of you making any money?

How does your company's Compensation Plan work? Does it
require you to sponsor wide or can you make money by just
going deep on two legs?

If it's not a binary plan or a maximum of 3 on the front
line you'll struggle with retention. The average associate
sponsors 2.7 people…this is the long term industry average.
Most of your business associates will be average people who
aren't totally fired up to pursue the business and hate
rejection (as every sane person should); but they love and
use the product and would like to make a bit of extra money.

If your comp plan requires them to go wide and sponsor a
lot of people on the front line to be profitable, they wont
be able to do it, they won't make any money and they will
just fall away…industry averages tell us this. The facts
simply are that 99% or more of the people you sponsor will
not themselves be sponsoring machines. It's the high energy
salesman types who love to sponsor wide-and they're few and
far between.

And not everyone is going to want to recruit online
either. In fact in my experience most people still prefer
what is called the warm market: carrying the message to
family, friends and people we meet.

So the simple truth is that the ideal MLM Company will
have a comp plan that calls for a maximum of 3 on the front
line; if you want retention.

A case in point is that the binary plan of one of the
major health and wellness companies is year after year
voted the best in the industry.

If your company does not have these characteristics and
you have been struggling for some time then perhaps it's
time for you to re-evaluate your situation?

But if your company has none of the characteristics I have
listed and you are still doing amazing things then
absolutely ignore everything I have said and get on with it.

If it ain't broke-don't fix it!

As well as your MLM efforts you'll need a Funded Proposal.
You'll want to be making some sideline money to fund your
marketing.
