Do you know that if you have the knack of rearranging things around the house or making some good home designs, you can make good business with it? When everyone around the house is away at work or at school, there is nothing left for you to do but try to do some home staging for your lovely abode. Well, how about making good money being a home stager for other people’s houses? You can turn their humble shelter into one magical castle and they will gladly pay you for it. Not only that, if you can learn how to make your own home staging business plan, real estate investors might even avail your service to beautify up a house for sale so it can be pleasing to the eyes of his would-be buyers and you will earn a hefty amount for that. Some say for consultation alone, a home stager can earn $500 in a day. Sounds lucrative, right?

When you start an MLM Business, it is a time of great excitement. Thoughts of increased income flood your mind. When you come back down to earth you are faced with the difficulty of marketing your business in a very competitive marketplace.

Bringing your MLM Business to the attraction of potential prospects can be a daunting task. Using the Internet you must concern yourself with SEO Optimization, lead capture pages and autoresponders with prewritten sales messages

Most Mlm distributors today use only the Internet to bring prospects into their recruiting process. They tend to overlook Offline Advertising methods to their own detriment. The MLM Distributor of today loses many opportunities to expand and grow their business.

Marketing an MLM Business Online can be too easy sometimes.We live in a society of instant gratification. You can place an ad online and have it published immediately.

No one wants to wait for “snail mail” to work. It also seems to be much more expensive than email.. These are amongst the items you must consider in deciding between Offline or Online Marketing.

Email deliverability is at an all time low. I have requested info online and most times I only get 50% of my requests in my email box. Major email service providers have overdone their campaigns against spam and hurt the Mlmers use of “permission marketing”. It is ridiculous to spend money to aquire a prospect only to lose them because they don’t get your messages

Duplicating yourself and your marketing strategies is the key to a successful MLM Business. It is much easier to duplicate  a postcard campaign than an email campaign. A higher percentage of your postcards will be delivered and read than email messages. You can integrate a postcard campaign with a lead capture page and followup with both email and snail mail

The most successful MLM business owners will be those who use both Online and Offline Marketing. Use all marketing mediums at your disposal to overcome your competition.

Is Multi level Marketing Sponsoring Easy?

“Do I have to know and sponsor many people to be successful in MLM?” is a commonly asked question.

A common response you might hear from upline sponsors is…

“No, if you sponsor just one person every month or so, you can become quite successful in MLM, and build up a substantial residual income.

They go on to say that the people you sponsor do not have to come from the group of people you already know (commonly called your warn market).  They tell you to think about how many people you converse with in your everyday activities!

But then they turn around and tell you to make a list of everyone you know, even from a casual relationship.  They instruct you to list everyone you can think of for example, people you work with, go to church with, people you do business with, people you went to school with, people you knew before you moved to your present location, etc. and you will be amazed by the number of people that end up on your list.

But the question is, will all these people really join your MLM business if you ask them to?  Most probably not.  However, statistics show that if only one out of every one hundred contacts you make joins your program under you, it will be enough to make your car payment, another one will make your house payment, and one more will retire you!

That’s really not so bad.  Three out of every one hundred is achievable, but you have to make the contacts.  As the saying goes, “the more you tell, the more you sell.”  Additionally, all the people on your contact list know other people and although they might not be interested themselves, they might refer your to others who will be interested.

However, there is one flaw in this whole process and that is that you have to be willing to be rejected by 97 people.  That is a lot of rejection and most people will not last that long.  And initially these are people you at least know, so the rejection is even more difficult to accept.

Do you know a number of people who would be willing to approach one hundred people and get rejected by 97 of them over and over again?  If you do, terrific, go sign them up today.  However, most people will not continue trying to sell or recruit to a disinterested, unwilling or hostile market.

If you are fortunate enough to recruit someone who is currently a seccessful network marketer with requisite skills, who brings along his established downline with him and becomes a “heavy hitter” in your company, then technically the answer given above is true.  If your company’s compensation plan is supportive, then that single recruit may be able to carry you along.

It is highly unlikely that you will be able to enroll a “heavy hitter” who can rapidly go out and build a large downline below you if you are only signing up “one person every month or two.”

So what are your alternatives if you can’t recruit a “heavy hitter” early in you MLM recruiting efforts and you don’t look forward to the thought of being rejected by 97 out of every one hundred people you contact?

Instead of seeking out all your friends and family members and rapidly becoming a member of the NFL (No Friends Left) club, or bugging everyone within 30 feet of you as suggested by some sponsors, you need to narrow down your target market.  Everyone is not your target market.  Your target market is made up of people who are already looking to start a home business, to earn extra money on a part-time basis, are looking for a Multi Level Marketing business to join or are already a member of some other Network Marketing program.  You can even further narrow down your niche to only the latter group if you desire.  Then entice them to come to you and get them to join your company by employing a soft sell technique instead of the hard sell methods pushed by many MLM sponsors.

“And just how are you supposed to do that?”, you might ask.

You can achieve this by offering your target market a free report or funded proposal relevant to your niche and developing your mailing or emailing (preferable) list.  Then using this list, you develop a relationship with the members of your list by providing them useful information and becoming an authority figure in their eyes.  This is known as relationship marketing.

If your market has been correctly identified, you will soon find that prospects will contact you looking for guidance and asking how to become a member of your program.

An eCourse is a an automated emails that are sent out over a specifed perod of time. eCourses are an excellent product to earn extra money online with. An eCourse can bring you anywhere from $20 to $200 per course if not more depending on the quality and nature of the product.  

eCourses usually consist of a series of lessons, and they can cover any topic you’d like. If your site is about babies you could create an eCourse called “How to Get Your Baby to Sleep Through the Night in 7 Days” and set it so subscribers receive one email per day for 7 days.

The user remains on your mailing list, even after the initial series is complete, so you can continue sending future messages unless he manually unsubscribes. This is the crucial aspect of earning extra money from your website. Remember, the money is in the lists.

Every message you send is an opportunity to steer your subscribers back to your website (or to a merchant’s site via an affiliate link). Since they’ve already signed up for your eCourse, you know they’re already interested in exactly the kind of information or services you have to offer.

The real beauty of an eCourse is that once you set up the series of emails you want to send out, it’s completely automated. It can continue to bring you targeted traffic for years to come without ever doing another thing. Of course you can always go back and make changes any time you like. You can create an eCourse about anything to earn extra money online. Search some niche markets online. Most improtantly, find something you enjoy and are passionate about. The more you do this, most likely you will earn extra money from your site.

How do I create my own eCourse?

It’s easy to do. All you need is a tool called an autoresponder.

There are lots of autoresponders to choose from, but the two biggest are Aweber and Get Response. You definitely want to choose an autoresponder that is well-known and trusted. A big part of your business will rely on your autoresponder providing reliable service.

Once you sign up with an autoresponder, you’ll be given some code to paste into your site. The code will place a box on your web pages to collect names and emails to add to your mailing list.

VERY IMPORTANT – you want an autoresponder that uses a double opt-in subscription method to protect you from SPAM complaints by requiring subscribers to confirm they want to subscribe before they can begin receiving your eCourse.

The next step is to write your series of emails and choose the frequency at which they’ll be sent. From there on in, your eCourse can be left on autopilot while you work on other things. Once set up, an eCourse can continue to bring in fresh traffic indefinitely and ultimately earn extra money you’ve been needing.

Internet Treasure Chest is a program that claims to give its users a very profitable and inexpensive business opportunity using the internet.  Through this program, its promotions claim, one can easily set up a web site and start selling or operating your online business.  The product is being promoted through TV infomercials and through its web site.  It claims to “give you everything you need to start your very own exciting internet business, including your own worldwide web site for an unbelievable price of only US$39.95”.

 

If you go to the web site of Internet Treasure Chest, testimonials abound with people claiming to have earned from their businesses anywhere from US$1,000 to US$30,000 a month.  The program is being sold with a 60 day money back satisfaction guaranteed.  If you return the package within 60 days, you will get a full refund, excluding shipping and handling.  The site, ironically, however, does not explain anything and seems to be lacking in information necessary for an intelligent buy decision.  It does not fully explain how the system works which renders it as suspect.

 

In 2003, the Internet Treasure Chest (ITC) got into trouble with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) which ordered an asset freeze on the company and its principal because the FTC asserts that ITC’s claims are false and without any basis in fact.  This move and a restraining order was made by FTC after receiving complaints from a number of consumers complaints were received against ITC.  Consumers claim that they have been denied refunds by ITC, and that after purchasing the product, they were induced to make numerous additional purchases to activate their internet business.

 

Based on this and real consumer reviews, Internet Treasure Chest can be considered a scam.  It lures consumers into buying a really cheap package that does not hold to its promise.  Of course, one would be attracted to having an internet business web site for less than US$100.  Add to this are the promises of huge sales volume and income.  The basic package seems to get you only through setting up a simple basic web site.  If you want to enhance or add more functionality to your site, you would have to purchase upgrades and design services from the company.  Its claims of huge traffic and business being driven to your site are also doubtful.

 

Internet Treasure Chest is a program to stay away from in view of the complaints and bad reviews about it.  Still though, the company continues to promote the product in its web site and on TV infomercials.  If you want to save your precious money and time, then it would be better not to believe the program’s claims or you may become one of its victims.  If you are really looking for a really good internet business opportunity, perform due research first.  You may spend time researching and studying various products now but it would save you from a lot of trouble later on had you not done so and fell into one of those scams such as this.

 

Is it Spam…Or a Business Opportunity?

Please allow me the opportunity to get something off my chest which has been bothering me for some time now.

You see I operate in the Home Business Opportunity Market; More Specifically Network Marketing Home Business. Ever since I have been on the Internet, all you hear about is Spam this and Spam that and you better not spam me or I’m reporting you for Spam. Enough Already!

If the worst thing that happened to you is that you got an unsolicited email on a daily basis…..I would consider that a Good Day.

I do understand the main reason for attacking and legislating against all this Spam which is the increased bandwith necessary to carry all this spam across the Internet.

I want to ask all you spam cops out there if you considered this??

You can make money from your Spam.

I probably make more money from spam than anything else I do online.

In the Network Marketing Business, it has become prevalent…especially since the advent of instant Internet Technology for a new company to have a Launch day at a specific time and day. When the clock rolls to zero….everyone rushes to signup knowing that the person who signs up first has a better chance of making money than the thousandth person who signs up,

I have profited immensely using this tactic since I am on so many lists and I get a ton of email. I generally know when a new company is about to launch before anyone else and I am first in line. I also use all the spam for reverse marketing. Spam is probably the best Network Marketing Lead you can get. Since a person already emailed ME…I in turn hit the reply button and thank them for their email and by chance have they considered XYZ opportunity? These are the best leads because they are active and working distributors.

So let your mailbox fill up, join all the lists, and take advantage of the Spam. Let it work for YOU…not against you. The extra money could come in handy in these trying times.

The internet gives every one the ability to sell to the world.  It gives us the ability to reach a wider market.  To make money selling online has become easy and readily accessible for everyone.  Selling online is now as easy as creating an account with an online selling or auction site such as E-bay, taking a picture of the product you want to sell, typing a description, setting a price for your product, posting it on the site and instantly, your product can be viewed online by people around the globe.  Anyone who is interested with what you are selling can contact you and make a deal with you.  Thus you can make money selling online in no time at all.

If you are an individual and would like to make money selling online to provide for extra cash, online auction and selling sites would be a good venue for your products.  Some people are able to earn extra money from items they already have at home.  Others engage in buying and selling.  They find and search for products that they already like or goods that they think would have good profit potential and sell them on the internet.  It is a great way to earn money with very little effort and investment required.

 

Make money selling online requires a little bit of planning and organization.  It pays to have a little strategy in place before you embark on it.  For instance, you may want to define your products and your market.  It is ideal that you carry a product that you yourself enjoy and have a passion for.  This way, you can sustain the business and be credible to your customers.  You would want to do some research on your market as well.  You should know how many other sellers sell the same product, what are the needs of your market, what do they want, etc.  Treat online selling as you would a brick-and-mortar business that you are setting up.  It should be properly planned and organized to ensure your success.

Knowing that articles have the ability to create an endless stream of prospects into your business funnel is one thing but constructing them in a manner which will appeal to readers is another.

The construction of an article is almost like building a house. It needs to be created with a strong foundation but it’s cosmetic look is just as important as it’s structural and content appeal.

Your title, content and resource box are all major factors in making them appealing to those looking for solutions to a lack of quality leads coming into their business but did you know that simply providing excellent content may not quite be enough.

If they look like a chore to read then people won’t read them. And remember, you’ve only got a reader’s attention for a few seconds so you need to put the odds of them planting their eyes on your content in your favor.
