Added for You - MLM Training - Why Your Prospects or Downline Won’t Do What You Ask Them To
Generally speaking, marketing inefficiencies are due to one or more of three reasons: 1. Lack of interest in – or understanding of – the sometimes fickle customer. 2. Improper blending of the four Ps – caused in part by overemphasis on internal problems as contrasted with a customer orientation. 3. Lack of understanding of – or adjustment to – the marketing environment, especially what competitors do.Perhaps, lack of concern for the customer is most noticeable in the ways the four Ps are sometimes combined – or forced – into a marketing mix. This can happen in many ways. Too many firms develop a new product to satisfy some manager’s pet idea – not to meet the needs of certain target customers. Or they see ano
Now, that doesn't mean you can't promote your product truthfully. You simply say something like, "The active ingredient (vitamin C) in Potent-C (an example of your company's product) has demonstrated to increase/decrease ________ by X amount." That way you're not claiming your product does anything.
Telling stories of your success or others' success with the product or the MLM business is also common. I'm not saying don't do it. Nor am I saying to do it. Just keep in mind that the common way people get in trouble is from questionable claims reported by the media after coming in with hidden recording devices and capturing what you say. So, make sure you are not claiming anything that isn't the truth.
If a friend went on your company's product and stopped having migraine headaches, you honestly wouldn't know if the reason was the product or the fact that she increased her water intake to take your product! You can't determine what really helped her - so be very careful what you
The Content GameThe success or failure of an online enterprise in today’s world is largely determined by the content of it’s website. When the search engine results formula were initially made public it became clear that the biggest concerns to getting websites ranked well were the number of links pointing to the website as well as the on-page keyword density within the website itself. These are both important factors and the number of links still contribute the majority of the weight as far as search engine rankings go. But now the actual page content matters as well.In order to be successful in today’s internet world, it is important for a website to have original content. Websites that use duplicate
If you do not tell the truth, your downline may be friendly to you...but they probably won't follow you.
Truth means: that which is factual based on observable data.
There has been much written about truth, a lot having to do with philosophy and religion. I don't wish to go there in this conversation. My only interest in the subject (as it pertains to the MLM industry) is that we, as a group, stop destroying our income and our reputation by not telling the truth.
I know telling the truth should go without saying, but I have to discuss it because it is one of the Ten Communication Qualities that make up a great communicator; yet also a major problem in the network marketing community that needs to be corrected for the MLM industry to grow to its fullest potential.
In 1991 my income dropped - like a brick falling from the top of a building - from a monthly gross of $68,000 to $16,000 - just because people were not telling the truth.
A member of the media sneaked into my colleague's business meeting and recorded the dialogue that occurred. Although it was a painful experience for me, the biggest loss stems from the CONSTANT number of people we repel because of not telling the truth.
Not only that, but every time we (I'm talking about me and you) don't tell the truth, we feel icky inside. Observe a dog that has done something wrong - do they come strutting into the room? Not at all! They actually hide under the couch. Their ears and tail hang low. They don't feel worthy. The same is true for us. That icky-ness actually causes us to not feel worthy that others follow our advice...and so they don't.
Five broad categories of not telling the truth have gotten individuals and/or companies in trouble and have stopped them from growing to their fullest potential. They are listed below.
1. False income representation or suggesting others can earn a stated level of income.
2. Stating that a product or service can do something that has not been substantiated.
3. Promising someone (or yourself) something and not doing it.
4. Gossiping about others. Passing information to another that does not add value.
5. Building the business in a way that is not truthful...such as suggesting distributors create fictitious accounts or positions.
As per category one above (false income representation), if you don't know what your upline earns don't say what you think it is. If through the grapevine you've heard it's "X" amount, and you feel you must state it, say: "The rumor is that she earns ___ amount; although I've not verified it."
Say nothing you don't know is absolutely true. This gives you tremendous credibility!
When you discuss income, discuss what the prospect wants - NOT what someone else is earning. If prospects state an income they want, tell them it's doable here (provided it is). Then state, "Some people go to school and become the President. Some become billionaires, some sell illegal drugs and some draw a welfare check. It would be impossible to know what you're going to do with what I teach you, but there is the potential to earn a substantial income if you choose to fully apply what you're taught."
Category two from above is unsubstantiated product claims; which have also gotten the network marketing industry into trouble in the past. If you market a nutrition product, the current law (in the USA) is the DSHEA Act (Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act), which states you can discuss what a product does, provided THAT PRODUCT is what has been proven to get results.
Most often an INGREDIENT has had some studies done on it (such as vitamin C) but your company's product (that contains that ingredient) has NOT. Therefore, it is against the law to claim your product does ANYTHING!

I think it is necessary to clarify for mortgage prospects the characteristics of the 1% mortgage advertised in almost every mortgage advertising material. It is also referred to as a negative amortization loan.The 1% mortgage is a feature that allows borrowers to pay less that the required monthly payment. The real rate of the loan can be between 5 and 8%.How does it work?This type of loan is commonly called an Option ARM loan. By Option ARM, they mean that they give you many options. In the mortgage statement, there are four payment optionsTo illustrate the scenario, we will take an example of the following loanLoan amount: $100,000, Note rate: 6%Option 1: Minimum Payment (1% or more)Th

I applied for the Stress Management site and lost but my experience may help you become familiar with the process.At the bottom of their homepage, you'll find a link to available websites. The guide prep is 17 days with four deadlines. You'll be in competition with up to five other guides that have applied. They start guide prep every week. I started late on a Friday afternoon with the deadline for the final eval occurring on a Monday. It could be a few weeks until you hear whether you've been accepted. My acceptance letter was received approximately three weeks before

With the accordance of strategy by expanding R&D in Eastern and Western Europe is a large scientific and technical center with good engineering and science centers. It was important that with qualified and educated professionals there is another reason for Ukraine to become more convenient for foreign customers with a simplified visa regime by American and European residents.

Category three is to keep your word once given. If you say you will be at a meeting at 6:45 - be there at 6:45. No excuses, just be there. If you say you're going to help someone - help them. Keep your word. If for some reason you're unable to keep your word, make it up to the person. Do something that shows you want to help.
But the most important person you must keep your word with is yourself. If you say you are going to bed at 11pm - go to bed at 11pm. If you say you will call five prospects a day, call five prospects a day!
When you're honest with yourself and with others, people will trust you. This trust is what helps your MLM business to grow and be successful. My experience is that people will not follow someone they can not trust.
Tell the truth always and you will be on your way to experiencing passive income and time freedom in your MLM business.
