Best Networking Analogy Ever!

I saw this poster today of this guy working out all sweaty and out of breath. The caption read " I worked out for an hour and a half today and I didn't lose any weight, it must be a scam!" I laugh at this because I hear from prospects all the time, "well I was in such and such company and I never made a dollar", "well I ask....how long were you with that company" I would always get the response oh...."a few months". People, like any good company, money does not just fall out of the sky beause you join a business and bought some business cards. You have to work, talk to people, learn your products, listen to your mentors, and put in some honest effort. I am tired if folks expecting money to magically appear because they signed with you, then went on vacation!

It is Not That Complicated

What I have found through years and years in the home based business industry is that most people make it way more complicated than it actually is. When you make the business sound complicated people don’t understand it and therefore they don’t want to be a part of it. MLM is really not that complicated and once you look at it in a simplified way it will make it much easier to make money doing it.

MLM, or network marketing, or direct sales or a home based business is just simply marketing a product or service. That’s IT! And as you marketing that product or service you bring other people on to your team who want to market that same product or service. As you build a bigger team you will make more money because one person selling 10 products a month is a little money but 50 people selling 10 products a month is big money.

As you build your team you make money from what you’re doing as well as making money off of what your team is doing.

Think of it this way. If you had a business where you sold t-shirts and you personally went door to door or store to store and sold and many t-shirts as you could in one day it would never be as much money as if you had 100 people out there doing the same thing and selling your t-shirts for you every day. That is all network marketing is, simple huh?

There is a misconception that in MLM you get paid JUST to bring people into the business not true. You bring people into the business but it is only when you get those people working and making money that you really start to make money. So when you help other people get rich you get rich in the process. Sound simple? It is!

MLM might be a lot of things but it’s not complicated.

How to Talk to Coworkers About Your Business

Of everyone that you know co-workers might be the hardest to talk to about your home based business. It can be frustrating to work along side people who would be great in your business but you aren’t sure how to approach them about it because you don’t want to get in trouble at work. So how exactly do you go about talking to the people you work with about your home based business without becoming a laughing stock or worse getting in trouble with your boss? Here are a few tips that should help you out when talking to co-workers.

1. Keep It Casual

Don’t come storming into your workplace talking about how your going to be out of there in a few months and go into a huge sales pitch. Try to keep everything as casual as possible. It’s totally fine to mention that you’re doing something part time from home and talk about it with your co-workers just as long as the boss doesn’t think you’re trying to take their entire office away. Keep any talk of your business light, fun and casual at work and most people won’t mind.

2. Don’t Pass Anything Out

It’s usually a good idea not to bring any flyers or brochures to work with you. Anything that could get passed around is generally not a good idea.

3. Make It Clear That You’re Not Leaving

Whenever you’re talking about your home based business try to make it clear that you’re doing it part time to make more money for yourself and your family. You don’t have to tell anyone that you’re thinking about leaving once you become more successful. You don’t want to get passed over for a promotion or a raise because your boss thinks your leaving the company in a month or two. It takes a while to build a business so don’t let everyone at work know you’re halfway out the door until you’re really ready to leave.

4. Do It Outside Of The Office

If you want to talk to someone in greater detail or you want to single someone out who you feel would be a really great fit for your business. Try doing it somewhere out of the office. For instance on a lunch break or after work over a few drinks. When you’re out of the four walls of your actual office building you’ll be able to speak much more freely and without the fear of consequences.

If you follow these four tips you should be able to speak to your co-workers in a way that is appropriate for the workplace.

Message Board and Forum Marketing Tips

If you are involved in a home based business and you want an endless supply of people to market to you may not find a better source than an online message board for forum. There are so many forums online and when you find the right ones you can generate an endless stream of prospects easily and for free.

Here are a few tips that will help you when marketing your home based business on an online forum or community.

1. Contribute before you ad a signature. If you make it clear that the only reason you’re on the forum is to get your website noticed people will get annoyed by you. You need to start out by posting answers to other peoples questions as well as starting your own threads BEFORE you ad a link to your website in your signature. This will show people that you want to be a legitimate part of the community and you’re not just looking for sign ups.

2. Use your picture as your avatar. This is a small thing that I have found to make a big difference. Internet marketing can be so impersonal. Let them see the real you. It will help them trust you more and give you instant credibility.

3. Don’t spam. There really isn’t very much that needs to be said about this. Spam is annoying and it won’t get you any sign ups. Just don’t do it. It’s not worth your time and it will ruin your reputation on the forum.

4. Try to be as friendly and helpful as possible. If you know the answer to a question answer it. Even if it doesn’t have anything to do with your business it doesn’t matter contribute as much as possible and make sure people know that you care about them.

5. Make sure you follow the forum rules. If it says right in the rules that you’re not allowed to promote your business don’t do it… end of story. Some forums are good places to get information about online marketing but they’re ad free for a reason. Don’t go against the rules or you’ll get banned. It’s just not worth it.

Put in the Time to be Rich

If you’re in a home based business you’ve probably asked yourself… what’s the key to huge results working from home?

There are a lot of things that contribute to a person’s success however, nothing can be better for your paycheck than good old fashioned hard work!

Hard work seems to be a concept that’s a little lost on home based business owners today. We want everything fast and easy. Why cook something in an oven when you can cook it in a microwave right?

Let me tell you something… there is no microwave equivalent to success in a home based business!

Companies that promise you huge money with zero or little effort are either lying to you or scamming you because nothing that is that good comes without effort.

It just amazes me how many people expect to make 6 figures overnight and without any effort at all! I don’ t mean to be rude but… how can you possibly think that?

Everything in life that is worth anything takes some time and effort, and the better it is there is a good chance the more effort it will take. I don’t want to get you down or discourage you. I just want to be honest with you.

If you want to make 6 figures in your home based business in the next couple of years I want to encourage you because it can happen! However the faster you want it the harder you’re probably going to have to work to achieve it.

Think about it this way… if home based business success was easy everyone would be working from home and filthy stinking rich!

Big time success and a huge income is always the result of hard work and consistent effort. No matter how silly your product is (and we hope you have a good one) or how little you know about business anything can be overcome with hard work!

So start putting in that much extra effort and your success will be one the way that much faster. No one can stop someone who has a goal in mind and is willing to work hard to achieve it!

Is it possible to grow my business with Article Marketing

If you are a home based business owner you’re probably always looking for new ways to market your business right?

 

            One of the most popular methods for marketing a home based business is through article marketing. If you are not familiar with the concept of article marketing, oh wait, you’re reading one right now… hmm so I guess you DO know what it is!

 

            Article marketing works for several different reasons. First of all it allows you to address certain issues that a prospect might be having trouble with. Like “is this one of those pyramid things” or “Can I really make money with Network Marketing?”

 

            All you have to do is write an article about that particular issue and it’s out there for all of cyber space to find and read.

 

            The other reason article marketing works is it makes you an instant expert on the issue.  There is a certain amount of credibility that goes along with being the author of an article even if it’s just on the internet and not a newspaper or a magazine.

 

            For these two reasons home business owners have been using article marketing to grow their business for years! Oh and just in case you are not yet convinced that it really is a great way to market check this out… it’s free!

 

            That might just be the best part about article marketing online. It doesn’t cost you a thing! While traditional methods of marketing in print say in magazine or newspaper ads can cost a ton online article marketing is absolutely free.

 

            Even if you aren’t a professional writer you can have lots and lots of success with article marketing. Of course if you don’t have the time or the will to write articles, and yes they can be fairly time consuming, there are plenty of PLR or private label rights article websites that will write your articles for you for a small fee. There really is no reason for any home business owner not to be doing this!

 

            Another great thing about article marketing is that it will get you in the search engines like yahoo, google or MSN pretty quickly and that means that when people are online looking for a home based business opportunity they can find your article and therefore find you!

 

            Article marketing is simply a great way to let even more people know about your home based business, and that means more money and success for you!
