Multi-level marketing (MLM) is a marketing strategy in which the sales force is compensated not only for sales they personally generate, but also for the sales of the other salespeople that they recruit.
This strategy involves development of sales and business skills, as well as leadership skills in order to succeed. Since we live in an era where the Internet is the number one tool for most businesses, Internet marketing skills are also very important for long term success. Seven tips that are essential for building a successful network marketing business fast are listed below:
1. The first and the most important item is to determine your WHY. Why do you want to build this business? Where are you going to be in five years if you continue to do what you are doing now? Will you have a lifestyle of your dreams? Will you have enough time and money to do what you want to do?
2. Company - How to know which one to choose?
Thousands of new network marketing companies are established each year, but more than 90% of these companies are out of business in just one year. It means that even if one builds a successful business fast, the company will not be there to pay the promised "residual income". How to choose the right company?
2.1. Make sure that the company is financial stable
The company should be at least 18 months in business and preferably should be debt free.
2.2. Product should be consumable, unique and preferably patented that most people need and like.
This type of product can be easily sold to the end consumer and it will allow you to build a network of consumers very fast. The drop out rate will be very low thus you can build your business really fast.
2.3. Timing
There are four phases of growth of any business: formulation, concentration, momentum and stability. Richard Poe in his book entitled "Wave 3: The New Era in Network Marketing" wrote "...the phase with the most rapid growth is the momentum phase, which occurs after the company has exceeded $50 million in annual sales. This is the moment when exponential growth kicks in, when fortunes can be made... by these lucky few who got into the company before it went into momentum". This means that companies that are well established, like Amway, are already in saturation and while one can still make money, it is difficult to make a fortune.
3. Compensation
There are different compensation plans for different MLM companies. Make sure that your company is not promising to pay over 100% , because this company will not stay in business very long. Very few network marketing companies can afford to pay over 60% of their revenue. The best way is to determine how much would you like to make a month and find out what you need to do to achieve it. Then, with a help of your sponsor, create a feasible plan of action to achieve this goal.
4. Training
Training is essential and it should include 3 different levels:
4.1. Introducing your opportunity to your warm market locally and long distance. It is important to have a proven system that everybody is able to follow.
4.2. Working with a cold market. This is much more difficult, but it should be taught to distributors who already exhausted their warm market.
4.3. Implementation of the Internet marketing strategies. This is the highest level of network marketing strategy and it takes time to develop it, but it leads to the most lucrative and stable business.
