Thanks for stopping by my blog. This post will teach you how you can sponsor people on Facebook, Twitter and Myspace.

Max Steingart has been teaching people to sponsor online through social media since 1996, and to this date this is the ONLY online network marketing strategy I’ve ever seen that has the ability to create a long term, sustainable team in the Network Marketing industry

Building network marketing businesses is all about building relationships through COMMUNICATION. Many people on social media fail to build a relationship with their Facebook or Twitter friends and instantly pitch them about their business.

Not everyone on the social media sites is going to respond to you. Here are three main reasons:

1. They don’t like your profile photo.

2. They don’t like what you have on your profile.

3. You are talking to the wrong people.

This is an important law by Max Steingart: “The key to avoiding rejection is to NOT talk about your business opportunity until you’ve learned that your friend has a need or interest in your product or service.”

“Don’t focus on the sale. Focus on whether there is a sale to be made.”

People don’t like to get pitched period. Only mention your business when a person says somethting like: “What are you working on?” or “What business are you involved with?”

Here are 12 questions that you can start asking to anyone on social media sites: (They don’t  even have to be interested in network marketing. You can use these questions to anyone who isn’t a network marketer)

1. What do you do?
2. What does that entail?
3. How long have you done it?
4. What did you do before?
5. How are you being affected by what’s happening in the economy?
6. How do you like what you’re doing?
7. Have you ever thought about doing anything else?
8. Are you familiar with the network marketing industry?
9. What experience do you have?
10. Why do you think you weren’t successful?
11. Would you be open to looking at another company that didn’t have those obstacles?

First 7 questions will tell you if they have a NEED. If they don’t have a need, then they are not great prospects to keep talking to about your business.

The 12 Questions To Ask Other Network Marketers

1.Are you still active in your company?
2. Are you building a business or just using the products?
3. Are you doing the business full time or part time?
4.How long have you been doing it?
5. What was it that attracted you to the company?
6. Is this your first experience in network marketing?
7.If not, what was your first networking experience?
8. How many companies did you try?
9. How are you doing?
10 Are you happy with the money you are making?
11. Why do you think you couldn’t make money in the business?
12. Would you be open to looking at another company that didn’t have
those obstacles?

If they answer YES to the last question, you can introduce your business to them and talk about the benefits that your prospect will have if he/she decides to join you. It is best that you ask these questions through Facebook’s instant messaging feature. It is also recommended that you get on the phone and speak with your prospect. Say something like “My fingers are tired. What is your phone number? If they give you their number, give them a ring.

This strategy works so well because;

1. You will never get rejected because you only introduce your business to interested prospects.

2. The leads are FREE for crying out loud. Most advertising would cost $2-$6 a lead! You have hundreds of millions of free leads.

3. When you are instant messaging someone, they are right there in person. You can ask for their phone number and you don’t have to make an appointment because you can call them right then and there.

Implement these strategies and you will NEVER run out of people to talk to about your business.

Have fun, there are only 450,000,000 people you can start this conversation with.

From what I have learned in this industry in order to attract the best types of people into joining your business, you must display these 3 traits.

1. Become a confident leader. You must have the charisma and confidence that every leader possesses. The way you speak, how you present yourself to others are all very important. People pay attention to everything. The tone of your voice when you speak to your leads must send the right message.

2. Be unique in the market. There is only one you. So take advantage of it. You have to be unique on the internet whether that would be through writing, video and audio. When you are unique you will separate yourself from everyone else and erase the competition.

3. Create your own information product. How many home business owners out there have their own information product? Not too many. Having your own information product will brand you in your prospect’s eyes. Make an information product that teaches people how to do something in the home business world. Think about Twitter, Facebook, Youtube, PPC, SEO. There are so many topics to make an information product about.

The beauty about leadership, is that you can’t buy leadership. Anyone can become a leader. The first step of leadership is to stand out from your competition and get the proper attention. All you have to do then, is use that attention to grow into a successful business.

Here is what most people do when they learn how to market online and generate their own leads. They only offer them their business opportunity. This is a huge problem. Here is why:

1. 95% of the leads that you generate are not going to join your business. (This is an industry statistic) For whatever reason, whether that be financial or timing, most people are just not going to be ready to join your business.

2. If you are spending money to generate your own leads, you better be good at bringing new distributors into your business.Because if you don’t, you could be out of business very fast.

So what do you do with 95% of the people that don’t join your business? You offer them products/services that are going to benefit their lives. This is called the Funded Proposal. I remember when I was a complete newbie. When one of my mentors offered a product that was going to help me grow my business, I was more than happy to buy it. Let’s face it, if you are not willing to invest in your education, don’t expect to get anywhere in your business. You must always be developing yourself. This is after all, a competitive industry.

You don’t even need your to make your own product. You can promote other people’s products. There are lots of affordable products that you can promote in the home business arena. Products by Mike Dillard and Jonathan Budd have always delivered in value.  Products that you can earn a 50% commission on.

If you don’t want to promote digital products such as ebooks/video courses, you can always promote an attraction marketing system/coaching program. When you refer another member to one of these programs, you can earn a 50% commission every month a person that you refer stays with the system or coaching program.

I don’t encourage anyone to spam their list or Facebook/Twitter friends with products or services. I only introduce products or systems/coaching programs to people in a way that it makes sense for people to take action upon. You can promote a product by speaking about what you thought the product/service helped you with and how it can help your followers. People take action upon reason. They don’t buy a product because it is a good product. They buy it because they believe it is going to help them reach their goals in life. Isn’t this the primary reason we are in this industry anyway?

Another thing that you can do is offer your own consulting/coaching. You can charge an hourly rate and provide coaching to the leads who need help with learning how to market their business online. As soon as I started thinking like an Entrepreneur, not just a network marketer, I started making way more money in my business.

I hope you enjoyed the information. Feel free to leave me any comments/suggestions.

P.S. If you are currently generating your own leads, I hope you are offering them information products  that are going to help them in their business and lives.

As all network marketers already know, success does not come without struggle and defeat. Network marketing requires that you improve in your level of marketing and mindset. These fundamentals are crucial to bringing you the REAL results that you want in your business.

If you don’t see the type of results that you are looking for within your first few months, don’t give up. There are many people in the same boat as you. I am sure that 99.9% of network marketers are not properly trained and equipped to start building their business when they first get started. I know I wasn’t ready to join a business. But  what is so ironic, is the solution to building a business. The solution is to go out there and attempt to build your business while learning from the people who are already successful. I am sure you know that experience has been one of your best teachers. The only way to truly learn, is go out there a get your feet wet.

Here are some tips that I learned from a home business guru that generates over 1000 leads a day.

* Almost all network marketers believe that the company that they are promoting has the best compensation plan with the best products and services. You have to realize that every person is different. Just because you feel that you company has a great product and compensation plan doesn’t mean that others will agree. It is important that you discuss how your product will benefit the lives of others. Many network marketers forget to speak about the benefits.

* Start generating your own leads. Not only will you have a never-ending stream of people to talk to about your business when you know how to generate leads, you will have people who are already interested in what you are offering. When you have 10 new people to speak to about your business, you will not worry about anyone not joining your business you know that you will have another 10 people tomorrow to speak to.

* Choose to join a well known company or business in the pre-launch phase. It will be easier to build a downline in a company that has a strong reputation than a brand new company that no one has ever heard of before. People actually look at company founders and products.

* Another irony, is that once people see that your company has a great product with strong founders and compensation plan, they are going to look at you! (This is why so many people fail) You know what they are going to ask themselves? Why should I join him/her? The answer is actually quite simple. If you are not worth joining, people are not going to join you. It is as simple as that. So you better learn how to make yourself attractive to work with if you ever want people to do business with you.

I hope you enjoyed these tips that I learned from this “guru”.

Today I thought I would make a post about my top strategies that have allowed me to generate thousands of leads for my business. I know what you want in your business. You want a never ending stream of prospects to speak to about your business. The internet changes so fast that it can be really hard to keep up with the vast amount of ways to generate leads online. Just like everything else in life, we have to take things one step at a time. Here are my top lead generation strategies.

1. PPC (PayPer Click) marketing is by far one of the most powerful ways to generate leads. Why? Because you set up the ad and opt-in page once, and it continues to bring you in fresh new leads month after month year after year.

2. Article marketing is a hot lead generation strategy. You send in your article to an article directory and all the traffic that you get, you send it to your opt-in page. Best part, every article that you write brings you in fresh leads for the rest of time. Quick Tip: Write one article and send it to 200 article directories with an article submitter. It is a real time saver.

3. Facebook has become the second most visited website on our planet. There are millions of people at your fingertips. It’s a great place to meet other like minded people.

4. Twitter is a great because you can not only build relationships with thousands of people with the push of a button, but you also have the ability to send people directly to your opt-in page and generate an endless amount of free leads.

5. Youtube not only gets tons of traffic, it allows you to brand yourself as a leader. If you don’t like to get on camera, get a software like Camtasia or Jing to record your computer screen. In the description box, be sure to put your link to an opt-in page so that you can drive traffic to your website.

6. SEO (Search Engine Optimization) is an extremely powerful method. Ranking high in the search engines for keywords that people type on Google, Yahoo and MSN can do wonders for your business. The best part, is that you don’t need to have your own website to take advantage of search engine traffic. You can title articles, videos and other types of content that will rank high in the search engines. Google loves Youtube and EzineArticles. Title content with searched keywords and you will generate a never ending stream of leads.

If you are new to internet marketing, I know this is a mouthful. I learned these strategies one step at a time. If you can master just one strategy, you will never worry about running out of prospects to speak to about your business. That’s what makes internet marketing so powerful. I learned most of these strategies from forums and my mentors, Jonathan Budd and Mike Dillard. I went over the basics of these marketing strategies. If you want to learn each strategy in detail, I would suggest you purchase an information product that will teach you how to use these strategies in detail. You now have millions of people at your finger tips… Let’s get marketing!

With internet marketing you have the ability to generate thousands of leads. But what many people forget to ask themselves is: Do I still need to be speaking to my prospects?

The answer is YES. In my opinion, there are 3 core reasons why you must call your leads if you want to build your business. I remember thinking that it didn’t matter if I spoke to people about my business or not. I thought people only cared about picking the right company.

Now I can see why I struggled for so long in network marketing. I was NOT BRANDING MYSELF. What I have discovered, is that people don’t really care about products, compensation plans or companies. What people really care about is having someone that will show them how to BUILD businesses. People want mentoring. They want someone that is going to teach them how succeed. By sending someone to a company replicated website, what good is it going to make for you?

When you get into internet marketing and you start generating so many leads, it gets a little bit difficult to continue calling leads. It becomes very easy to stay behind your computer and expect people to simply join your business. But what happens when you call your leads, is you start to build a RELATIONSHIP with them. Isn’t network marketing a relationship business after all? Without trust, your business is dead.

Here are 3 reasons why you should continue to do MLM Prospecting.

1. People do Business with people. I don’t care what anybody says. If you don’t build trust, don’t expect others to join your business.

2. When you speak to your leads on the phone, there is a much better chance that they will work with you in the future. Why? Because you have built a stronger relationship with them. To the leads, you are no longer some person behind the computer screen.

3. It is all about the NETWORK. What happens when you speak to thousands of leads and you keep a constant relationship with them? It becomes much easier to build your network marketing business. It is all about having a network. When you have so many contacts that you have spoken to on your email list, it becomes much easier to bring new people into your business.

I hope you learned a thing or two today from these simple network marketing prospecting tips.

P.S. Leave a comment, I would love to learn what you thought of my post, even if you didn’t agree.

Hey, today I thought I would make a short post about the insane amount of money it costs to generate a lead with ppc marketing. On average, it costs around $2.50 to generate a lead with Google Adwords. So how do you get around paying that much? Well, there are a couple of things that you can do. The first thing is to go after brand new companies that don’t have as many advertisers. You will be surprised at how easy it is to get your ad on the first page of Google by being one of the first advertisers to bid on a brand new company. The second thing that you can do, is to do ppc marketing on Yahoo and MSN. The amount of traffic will be less, but you can still get a decent amount of traffic for  a fraction of the cost of Adwords. Remember to test every keyword that you bid on so that you will always get a good return on your investment.

Watch how online lead generation works…
