MLM (Multi Level Marketing) - The reasons that 95% fail to succeed in this business

It's been interesting watching the MLM industry try to figure out how to work the internet ... in fact it has been comical on the whole, with only very few (<5%) doing it the right way online!!

You would think that the internet would have been the ultimate recruitment tool... Oh no, not at all ! There are valid reasons why it has not been the case... the online world is very different to that off-line.

The crucial pit-falls and mistaken ideas about HOW to run an online Network Marketing business

• Companies tell their affiliates that they 'do not have to sell'. You will not ever get your business working by selling ONLY to friends and family !


• Old 'leaflet dropping', 'word of mouth' techniques do not work on the internet. There are thousands of other 'businesses' being offered daily on the internet so you need to Market yourself FIRST before even suggesting your networking business to others ... they will not care about your opportunity until they have convinced themselves through your assistance and valued help that your opportunity is the one they want.


• The only 'sales techniques' suggested by network marketing companies are akin to those used by 'used car salesman'. This is a business so treat it and work like one !


• "Anyone can do the business, we build it for you." ... absolute rubbish! This business requires work ... it is no different to any other one.


• Why being motivated is NOT enough - it is no good being motivated if you do not know what and how to start getting your business off the ground.


• Your product or compensation plan is NOT the reason people will sign-up for your opportunity - the only way they will join your business is because they want to work with YOU!
