Network Marketing Business Opportunity A Powerful Model For Extra Income

Posted on June 29, 2011 by Clint

Networking marketing is still a fantastic business model to provide you with an additional income stream should business slow down. With the emergence of internet based network marketing opportunities the chances of you finding a business that compliments your business activity is even more likely.

Years ago just the thought of network marketing was enough to scare people away (and it still is even now but not as much!) Rumors of lost income and pyramid schemes saw innocent people robbed and disillusioned but it doesn’t have to be that way.

A little due diligence can go a long way towards ensuring that you find a reputable company that will support you in your efforts of building a profitable network marketing business. It’s really easy to be sucked in by a flash presentation and big income promises but the real work comes from researching the company, it’s management and it’s financial position before you sign the dotted line.

Your sponsor should also be an important determining factor and their ability to keep you motivated and on track.

It’s also important to remember that it’s not all income and glamour, there is a scary statistic that I read recently which shows only a very small percentage (2-3%) actually make a huge six figure income through network marketing with many more leaving before they really get started.

But many people still enjoy a regular ongoing income if they stick with their business for a few years and keep working at it.

Running a network marketing business takes work and commitment. It is no different to running your own business and if you happen to be doing both then it’s easy to see why people give up. So it’s always good to remember when you are considering taking on an extra business that it’s going to take your time, energy and extra money in promotion if you want it to succeed.

For that reason it is important to find a company that you really like, either because of their product or their work ethic. If you can promote your network marketing business to your current clients that can make it even more worthwhile.

It makes it easier when you are feeling like you are tired of promoting or if you have had yet another person say no!

I know a yoga teacher who promotes Herbal Life, a therapist who promotes Tahitain Noni Juice, quite a few Life Coaches who promote Success University and because these businesses fit in well with their current business they are able to enjoy the extra income and even recruit new distributors.

I run 2 network marketing businesses providing different topics but both of them fit into my love of personal development and internet marketing. HelloWorld provides me with an opportunity to promote the work that I do and publish events that I record (all be it briefly) as well as fulfilling my love of streaming digital media (I am becoming quite the geek!) and Success University is an alternative to coaching for people who can’t afford it, or for people who just need a “maintenance” program to keep them focused. But I don’t only promote these products I use them too.

There are many benefits to running your own network marketing internet based business and I will be talking alot about them over the coming weeks because I believe in it’s power as a business model. It has certainly kept my head above water over the last few months as I gave up coaching to focus on building my online business Women Internet Marketers.

Ultimately I want to be known for developing my own business but as I believe in the power of developing income streams from many sources network marketing is still a powerful source to consider.

Success in Network Marketing

Posted on January 15, 2011 by Clint

Success in network marketing is a Matter of Skill . It can only be achieved by hard work dedication and a number of other factor too. It is all about the right mindset. If you are going to be a success in network marketing you must understand right from the beginning that this is a job, not some idle pastime or hobby. Aside from the company and market prognosis, your success in network marketing will boil down to your marketing abilities. The first thing people need to realize is that in order to have success in network marketing on the internet, is that it isn’t get rich quick. Anyone selling you on the idea that for a fifty dollar start up cost and a great website already set up for you is all you need and 60 days from now you will be rolling in the dough with a paycheck, is probably making money for sponsoring you, which falls into some illegal pyramid laws that we won’t get into here. The unique structure of the success in network marketing industry is such that your success depends largely on the mentorship of the MLM experts in your company. Mindfulness is a key mental skill that can potentially enhance all other acquired skills. Hopefully, these ideas will jumpstart your success in network marketing.

Blog Hop For Free Traffic

Posted on January 5, 2011 by Clint

Getting traffic to your blog and interacting with your visitors is something I am getting a lot of questions about.

Here is a simple solution that will address both problems. Let’s discuss blog hopping or simply visiting another related blog and leave a valuable comment. That’s going serve three purposes.

1. Backlinks
First, leave a comment on blogs that are “do-follow” so as to provide a link back to your site.
2. Relationship building
By leaving a comment on a person’s blog you open the door to building a relationship with them, which can lead to the possibility of you guest posting on their blog in the future or perhaps a joint venture partnership which is mutually beneficial for you both.

You will also begin to build relationships with the other readers of their blog too.

Once they see your valuable comment, they will no doubt hop over and visit your blog too, where you can further interact and build relationships with them.

3. The final reason blog hopping is beneficial is exposure of your own blog content. There is a highly popular WordPress plugin named Comment Luv, this will allow you to display a link back to your last blog post. But not only can you link back to your last blog post, you are given access to a drop down menu containing your last ten blog posts. This means you can select which blog post is most relevant to the blog post you are commenting on and increase the chance of the author or reader visiting your post.

Blog hopping is highly effective in generating traffic, backlinks and building relationships, if you are a blogger, spend the time to visit at least 10 blogs a day to fully benefit.

Now you know why you should blog hop, search on Google for related niche blogs, leave valuable comments on the blogs and watch the traffic pour in.

Is a Home-Based Business Right For You?

Posted on December 26, 2010 by Clint

While working from home sounds like the ideal set of circumstances, it truthfully isn’t for everyone. It works for many parents who want to save on the costs of commuting and childcare expenses allowing them to establish a work-life balance. But if someone told you it was easy and for everyone, they are wrong. It is work, often times harder in the sense of trying to strike a balance between home life and business success.

Here are some questions to ask yourself before considering working from home or revamping your work at home business plan if you are struggling. Be it your own home-based business, a home-based job where you work as an independent contractor for someone else, or freelancing and working for several entities at once, working from home requires certain characteristics and disciplines. When you work for yourself, only you can evaluate your performance as in many cases there will be no boss or job review. Therefore, you must access yourself honestly.

If you are considering a new work at home venture or are in an existing one and not feeling as productive as you would like to be, take a look at these questions and pointers to see if you are headed in the right direction:

Are you an independent thinker and do-er? Working from home requires that and often times you feel shut-off from the outside world. While there is social interaction involved in home-based business, it’s not the same as the social interaction one would get say from working in an office environment on a daily basis. Working from home requires you to be independent enough to not need the camaraderie of others to get your work done. Are you up for the task?

Are you willing to have a fluctuating income? Often times that is true with home-based jobs when you work for another and your hours vary from week to week or project to project. If you are in a home-based business, your income depends on either work you complete or products you deliver to your customers or clients. Every month, your income will vary and that could be true for a long time. Do you have the budgeting skills to handle this? Are you willing to accept that in order to get your business off the ground?

Are you a go-getter? You will have to be because you are the CEO and Manager of your own firm as an independent contractor. For many, it means you will have to find ways to get business – be it product sales or projects to complete. You must think like the CEO of your own company and not a parent who is trying to “make a living on the side” as that thinking can easily defeat you.

Do you have a work-friendly environment in your home? While it might seem like that isn’t so important, it really is! Where you will be working will indicate how productive you can be. So, take a look at your home office space. Do you have a workspace to call your own? Is it well-lit? Is your computer area comfortable enough to work long hours, easily accessible and free of distracting clutter?

Are you able to adhere to a schedule? While working from home sounds like a dream come true in that you can work your own hours, you will still have to schedule blocks of work time or something else will always get in the way. You will need to create a somewhat structured routine. While there is always some room for flexibility, especially where family is concerned, you must be willing to put in hours to make money in your business. Can you strike that balance?

Are you disciplined? If you work from home, would you sleep in late or get up, shower and get dressed and “show up” for work just as if you worked outside the home? How about distractions? What will happen when your favorite television program comes on during a block of time you have scheduled for work? Discipline will be key to your success, so you must be honest with yourself and stay focused.

Working for yourself means you have no boss to pat you on the shoulder and give you kudos. Therefore, you have to do so yourself when you have accomplished a job well done. But it’s equally important to be sure you have what it takes to work from home … the ability to overcome the obstacles that could stand in your way of your highest success.

Are you Communicating?

Posted on December 26, 2010 by Clint

One of the things that I often hear from people frustrated in work or personal relationships, is that there is a lack of quality communication in the relationship. If we want to develop stronger relationships with others then it’s good to check out how we are communicating. Good communication is:

CLEAR: Do people have a puzzled look on their faces when you speak to them? One big source of unnecessary stress is communication that isn’t clear, or is it?!

CONSISTENT: It’s great to keep people in the loop on a continual basis. Don’t save it all up for the monthly report: communicate to people regularly and naturally.

CONCISE: People will switch off if you waffle on and on. Get to the point and keep others engaged in what you are saying.

HONEST: Good news is easy to share, whereas when things are not so good, leaders can find that there is a pressure and expectation on them to keep it positive. Just be honest and real. People will appreciate it and respect you for it. Also, if you stretch or distort the truth, people won’t really know when you are being honest or just spinning another yarn. Mistrust derails communication.

OPEN: Communication involves more than a transfer of information, as it should also contain our feelings, thoughts and responses. Even if you are not really into “warm and fuzzies” the others around you may be and may need to hear how you are feeling and for you to take on board how they are feeling.

APPROPRIATE: Some people never disclose personal information, whereas others will give all the sordid details to anyone willing to listen. The level of disclosure should be related to the type of relationship we have with the other person. Be sensitive to their needs.

INFLUENCING BUT NOT MANIPULATIVE: There is a big difference between communicating something passionately with the view of influencing others and using communication as a tool for manipulating them.

“H. U.A.” – Heard, Understood and Acknowledged. It’s great to get some feedback that what you have been saying has actually registered with others. Don’t assume that people have heard and understood what you said or even read the email or report that you sent them.

Are you communicating effectively with:

family and friends?

work colleagues?

your staff and organization?

Go for it. It will be appreciated.

The Rewards of Having A Network Marketing Business

Posted on December 17, 2010 by Clint

There are loads of constructive aspects to having a network marketing business. People that do not have the ability to advance themselves in a professional field that requires a degree can be successful in this business model. People can put as much time as they want to into the business itself.

This business model also allows individuals the opportunity to work at their own pace. It gives them a chance to determine how much money they are going to make with the business itself. This is very beneficial for individuals that need a little bit of extra income. The majority of these companies have a good support system for people that are getting started.

The support system is usually comprised of individuals that have had success in the business. This means the team aspect is very important to the overall success of each representative. This should provide individuals with a chance to ask questions and advance through the company at a rapid rate.

This is helpful for individuals who are not necessarily sure how to step forward. Residual income is also another great aspect of being involved in this kind of company. Once someone has established themselves they should not have any difficulty trying to gain financial prosperity in the future.

The opportunity to interact with a great number of people is also something that most people appreciate. Connecting with various types of people will help the social skills of any representative. This is beneficial because people will advance themselves in other areas of their life as well.

Many of these companies do not require a person to have inventory. The Internet has made finding potential business partners significantly easier. Advertising can be done in a variety of ways so that a person can maximize the profitability. The majority of these business models are successful within a very short period of time.

It is clear to see that there are many positive aspects to becoming involved in a network marketing business. Anyone connected with this type of business arrangement will have unlimited financial earnings potential. This is something that can benefit every person because the economy is so uncertain these days. Having extra money is something that almost every person can benefit from. Making the decision about when to work is left up to the individual executives who are trying to build their business. This means that a person must be self-motivated in order to be successful.

Finding The Right Network Marketing Opportunity

Posted on December 10, 2010 by Clint

The right network marketing opportunity is going to afford you with the capability to make as much money as you could possibly dream. However, this is only going to happen if you find the right type of opportunity. There are a few things you should consider during this process.

The first thing that you have to do is to consider the type of industry that you actually have an interest in. Do you have a specific interest in the health and fitness niche? Perhaps you like cosmetics? Maybe electronic goods are more up your street? Whatever your interest you should find a suitable opportunity within that particular niche market.

Make sure that you can relate specifically to the products that the company sells. At the end of the day it is going to be used selling these products and therefore if you wouldn’t be willing to purchase them yourself then how can you convince others to do so?

Training is going to be absolutely fundamental. This is particularly important if you haven’t yet started up with any other network marketing opportunity. As with any other type of job you will need training in order to give yourself the tools to get the job done. While some companies will offer excellent training programs, others won’t. You will need to identify a company who will take you through the process step-by-step give you everything you will need to get yourself going.

The main reason why people start up with these opportunities is to obviously earn money. The way in which you earn money through a network marketing opportunity is via a commission structure. It is, therefore, important for you to identify the details of the commission structure of any company that you come across. Ask yourself questions based upon the sale price and commission you will make, the commission you make when your team member makes a sale, and how far the commission structure goes down.

How much are you prepared to invest? Some opportunities will only require a very limited amount of investment while others will require a great deal more. Consider where you stand and try to find a suitable company that will provide you with what you need.

One final consideration will be the company itself and its reputation. If you really want to get started quickly then try to find an established brand with a good reputation.
