MLM Sponsoring Made Easy With These Magic Words
- by Rober
{Are you stressed out with MLM sponsoring~Does MLM sponsoring make you crazy~Can’t figure out the secret to MLM sponsoring}? Are your skills not where they should be? Have trouble with the “hard sell?”
You are not alone. Most people have a hard time sponsoring. The main reason being they think they have to SELL when in fact they should be SORTING. MLM sponsoring becomes easy once you A) have confidence, and B) learn the correct approach. It’s easy to try using third party invites…and explode your MLM sponsoring efforts.
People naturally want to help. Ask someone in a gas station for driving directions and most times they’ll tell you. It’s no different with MLM sponsoring.
By now you’ve probably made a list of all the people you want to contact about your new business opportunity (if you haven’t, do it now). WAIT Go back to your list and separate it into two columns: A & B. In your A column list those prospects you think have a vast network of contacts. Use the B column to list those contacts that don’t have a strong network.
When it’s time to make that initial call start with column A.
Here’s a sample of how the conversation should go, “Hey Tom! Wondering if you could help me with something. I just started a new business and I’m looking to expand. Do you have any friends that are looking to change professions?”
Tom is now thinking two things:
1) Who can I refer?
2) If this is so important why can’t I do it?
You’ve just planted an MLM sponsoring seed. Tom is now in your pipeline because you didn’t try to force your opportunity on him. He now wants to find out what you have. Call him back after a day or two and see if he has any referrals for you. After that, follow up again and present your opportunity to him. If he gives you even one lead, you’ve just doubled your chances! Can you make MLM sponsoring any easier?
A Man’s Home Is Still His Castle
- by Rober
Someone making their living working in others’ homes develops a certain insight into people’s natures. This isn’t so much true for someone who, for example, comes in to fix the furnace or wash the windows, since these jobs don’t involve a great deal of verbal communication. But for an in-home salesman or saleswoman, a visit may last for several hours and much of this time may include conversation. When in their own home, a prospect is likely to feel comfortably at ease. This is, after all, their home turf.
This feeling of ease on the homeowner’s part gives an astute salesman or woman a distinct advantage. The object of his or her visit is to make a sale. For this to occur, it’s best that the prospect feel comfortable and at ease. There are definite methods to accomplish this, but for a salesman to be sitting with the prospect in armchairs near the fire or at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee is a big first step.
A sincere compliment about something you admire in the house can work wonders. Something as simple as, ‘Boy, that’s a nice quilt set you’ve made there… I’ll bet that took awhile, ‘ can go far in breaking down buyer/seller barriers that exist. Sincerity is important here.
If your product line includes bedding it might be appropriate to mention that one of your best moving items is the ‘king quilt‘ but that, compared to the hand-made version previously mentioned, your’s seems inferior. The prospect will be struck by your honesty and, most likely, open to your suggestions about possibly purchasing other items you’re currently offering. Making a friend can often equate to making a sale.
Sometimes people may have negative preconceptions of salespeople, especially the in-home type. They may consider them ‘door-to-door peddlers’. These predispositions can be overcome with friendliness, honesty and sincerity. Remember, any favorable sales process should benefit both sides involved in the deal.
For many years (in the not too distant past) in-home sales was quite common. ‘Traveling salesmen’ could be found plying everything from brushes and magazines to cookware, encyclopedias and Bibles. Today, with the explosion of multi-level marketing outfits in the marketplace, salespeople (called distributors) are once again closing sales at the kitchen table, selling in the homes of their relatives, neighbors and friends.
The Internet has brought significant changes in the way people purchase goods and services. What used to require person-to-person communication can now often be accomplished with a few keystrokes and mouse clicks. Technology has certainly altered our world. But you know that!

Opportunity Seekers Advice
- by Rober
Choosing a home business online can be a bit of a jungle. There are many of them around and also you need to watch out for scammers who just want to make some fast money out of you. You will need to be careful!
You cant dispute that there is money to be made on the internet, there are countless individuals across the world making large amounts that more than equal full time wages. It is important though that you know what you are doing and are willing to put in the effort required.
Direct sales and Network Marketing are the two main business models I would recommend you look at. You might also want to look at being an affiliate marketer where you sell a product that someone else has created, they do the work of creating it and you just sell it for a onetime commission.
With an MLM business you will be developing a team of distributors under you. You earn money for their activity, they make a sale, you get paid, even though you didn’t do anything. There’s no doubt this is an extremely good business model, get enough people under you and your residual cheques will be coming in for work that you did just once. I would recommend you consider this business model.
With a top tier business you will earn large commissions on the front end when you make a sale of the product or service, often there won’t be much passive income as you won’t get paid several levels deep. Most of these business opportunities are high ticket, therefore more costly to join, but pay out more commission, so more profit for less sales, although it may be tougher to get a sale due to the cost. Of course higher profits has its advantages, you have a much better margin of profit and will probably be able to invest more into promotional activity.
It’s no good spending $500 to make 5 sales on a $100 product, but with a high ticket business paying a commission of £2,000, it’s very worth it.
When choosing any opportunity, you want to check out their history and see if you can dig up any dirt before joining. With most of the businesses you will be partnering with someone, so choose wisely. Its a fact of the industry that there are people around who don’t deliver on their promises of support and coaching. Once you have joined some will magically disappear or become difficult to contact!
So my advice would be to check out anyone you consider partnering with and please make sure you at least speak to them on the phone, before paying out any money.
Look into the time the company has been around. First mover advantage can be massive and put you at the top of the chain, but you also need to consider if the products will be in demand and stick around for a few years to come, or will it be a flash in the pan. Recruiting momentum can be vast with a new start company, everyone loves the next new thing. When looking at any business I like to look at the products and consider if there is a market for them, also I ask myself if the products would still be bought even if there was not a network marketing compensation plan attached to them.
Whatever the business that you look at and sign up with, there are several concepts that you must be aware of, miss one out and is could be devastating to you future prosperity.

Determining Your Virtual Assistant Rates- What You Must Consider
- by Rober
How to determine you Virtual Assistant Rates.
I know it was a very hard decision for me when I first started my Virtual Assistant business. If I charge too much will I scare away potential clients? What if I charge too little and clients assume my quality is not the best? Do you have tough competition? Should I try to get clients by charging less than other virtual assistants?
If these questions have been going through your mind, you are in good company. Rest assured most self-employed professionals struggle with the question of how much to charge.
You can make the process of determining your rates easier if you just simplify things. Don’t worry about every little thing and become confused with all of the questions you have when determining your rates.
Start with simply researching the rates of other virtual assistants that have similar credentials and are offering the same services you would like to offer. When you begin your research, take advantage of the many forums and Virtual Assistant Associations available to you.
Rates will varying according to the particular industry you want to target…and some industries pay more than others. Another key factor to consider when determining your rates is the skill set you have and your level of proficiency. You can charge more if you have many skills and years of experience.
Should you start your business charging less and raise your rates once you have found a few clients?
This is a tricky question with no correct answer; however, here are some things to consider:
If you start out with rates that are well below the standard for your services, it can be difficult to raise them later. Clients do not want to see the costs of their services go up…including services. On the other hand, if you start a little low, you certainly can raise your rates down the road as your skills improve and you build an impressive portfolio.
Another factor to consider when determining your virtual assistant rates is your target market. What will your target niche be? What types of clients will you work with and how much will they be able and willing to pay? For instance, a highly skilled virtual assistant certified to specialize in assisting real estate agents, legal or financial professionals will be able to charge more than a VA who works with entrepreneurs and new business start-ups that only need help with basic administrative tasks.
While I don’t believe your rates should be determined by and virtual assistant certifications you have, you do need to consider your level of training and experience in the services you provide. If you are highly skilled with many years of experience, you will be able to provide an extremely high level of quality and you can charge a higher rate than someone just starting out with little experience or training.
Learning to value yourself is one of the biggest challenges you face when starting a home based business. Smart business owners know you get what you pay for and are will to pay for quality work. You must charge what you are worth.
Along with these factors, when determining your virtual assistant rates, you need to remember you are a business owner now and you must charge enough to make a profit.
Learn more about becoming a virtual assistant and how to run a successful home based business. Being your own boss and a business owner can be one of the biggest accomplishments in your life.

SEO – Link Building – What You MUST Know
- by Rober
Lots of web marketers who want to take advantage of the many benefits deriving from article marketing, don’t know where to start and how to submit articles with a SEO link building service . The explanation for business failure can be identified in the inadequate application of marketing strategies or the lack of knowledge in the field of activity. Make sure you have neither of these problems. Even if article marketing has the reputation of being little challenging, a deep understanding of the Internet mechanisms will maximize results. Here are some strong and weak points you could keep in mind when designing your strategies.
Content quality could be a a problem or an advantage. You should submit articles with a link building service that fully correspond to the activity of your business. Make the materials useful, new, fresh and easy to read. Here are the common mistakes that mar article writing:
-improper keyword density, either too low or too high;
-low quality articles that are created by copy-pasting from other Internet sources;
-too long paragraphs that are difficult to follow;
-the presence of some special characters specific to certain text editors like Microsoft Word or OpenOffice may render some words illegible;
-faulty spelling and poor grammar;
-lack of accuracy;
The next stage after content writing is the choice of the best places to submit articles with a SEO link building service and then the submission as such. When you are still in the early stages of online business growth, submit articles with the best known directories. The suggestions below may serve as guidelines:
-find out which article directories enjoy the best online reputation;
-determine where you can submit articles for free and where the service is charged monthly;
-read the terms and conditions and see what is required for content approval;
-submit articles .
The steps described above should help you start with online business promotion, even if article marketing requires ongoing management. With article marketing, you constantly have to come up with new and fresh content so as to keep on an ascending business path. And the number of articles that you submit matters a lot here. Besides content, the most valuable element in an article is the link included in the author info box that leads the reader to your business website.
And you’ll see that the number of links boosts up traffic. You will enhance the number of relevant visitors if your articles are informative and interesting. More visitors also turn into more prospects for your business. Sales and profit go hand in hand, and they are certainly what you are after!
Why You Don’t Know How To Use One Way Link Building
- by Rober
Reaching a numerous audience without breaking your advertising budget, one way link building makes a great system of business promotion on the Internet. People search for information online, and only a small percentage of the overall number of web surfers actually perform commercial transactions. Nevertheless, over the last years, the number of online transactions has reached incredible levels, and there is no sign that this trend will decline in the near future. Article marketing has the merit of targeting those Internet users that are directly interested in your services and products.
Write the articles to stir the reader’s curiosity, to provide some practical information and persuade the reader to click on one of the incorporated links. Start writing for one particular keyword: that is your topic! Let’s assume you have a website about cats, you can write about ‘pet grooming’, to give just an example of a relevant keyword here. In order for the effective link building strategies to have an impact on readers you also need to take into consideration other aspects.
The keyword density should range between 1.5% and 4%. You should only focus on one keyword in particular because you may otherwise confuse the reader about the topic. Provide high quality information, and make the title enticing enough to get the reader’s eye. On the average, a 450-500 article should include between four and six paragraphs. While you make the articles reader-friendly, you should also follow the rules or the guidelines of the article directories where you submit them.
One major article marketing issue here is that of one way links and the way you may use them within the content or the author box. Anchor text links are the most profitable: they can be incorporated in the content and in the resource box. You can use up to three such links per article. When clicking on any of these the reader will be re-directed to your business web page. Yet, most article directories use simple links or URLs instead of anchor text links, which is why you should check their terms and conditions first.
It is a rarity for article directories to accept anchor text links although there are exceptions here too: consider working with www.myarticlenetwork.com, and you will indeed see how profitable such links can be. One or two links in the author resource box are enough. Then, other article marketing problems that you need to pay attention to before submission is the content originality. Directories check all the materials to prevent duplication. Thus, if you submit an article to a directory, you cannot use it on your website or with other submission services.
