There are two streams of income derived from Network Marketing the products and the business opportunity.

• Marketing your products for the benefits of your consumer

• Marketing your business opportunity to grow a profitable team

Now you might ask what do you market first well lets make it clear you need to obviously market both, but  a good tip is to market your products first because if your products are of value and worthy of price then your business opportunity will be easier to sell.

Let me tell you my story so you can see the relevance of marketing then we will get into the good stuff.

When i came across my company i was passionate about the product. But and more importantly the products were of high value and appealed to literally millions of people, because it is a trillion $ industry.

So i knew with the right marketing our team would do well with this company. But here is a thought make sure you purchase the products taste the products be part of what the company sells and you will market your products better and with more response. You really need to be at one with the products.

Ok now what about the business opportunity well as i said before, once you sell the products many people which have purchased and are extremely happy will want to join your team knowing they can recommend what they have had experience with. So your opt in rate will be high for those that have a desire to earn extra income.

Get some really good offline marketing for your products like some ads and magazines this is a great way to get some interest and sales for your products. Get some cards and brochures made up. Tell people about it but don’t pitch it just mention it in a way to arouse interest.

Selling your opportunity to build residual income.

Your company will have a site for you and likely a capture page but!

• Get yourself a blog for info and branding more info on blog marketing below
  

• Produce a capture page for you own leads for future business as well as your mlm
  

• Show leadership teach what you know even if you are new you will still know more than the average person coming into the industry
  

• Do a launch for your MLM using webinars
  

• Advertise with PPC, Banner Ads and CPV (cost per view) this will cost but if done right can be a low cost per lead
  

• Consider a co-op within the company for leads but only if the co-op is within the company otherwise you will be wasting lots of money.
  

These are the fundamentals for really promoting the opportunity that will gain leads quickly and make you an income fast.

It is important to understand that people want their own problems solved first and it is up to you as a network marketer to help them achieve this, find out what they want first.

Once you have an understanding of their needs and wants you will be in a much better situation to help them.

Network marketing is as it says networking helping others building long lasting relationships that are successful not just as a business, but socially connecting with people who have desires and dreams to make their life more rewarding.
Network marketing is a lifelong commitment to rewarding you as an individual and team success, helping others in your team reach their goals and financial freedom. Once you have recognised or understood what it is that they are wanting or looking for then you can examine whether your opportunity is right for them or not.

It is important that your team are wanting the same thing as this will breed a succesful partnership increase wealth and happiness within your network business.

The most important aspect is connecting talking and understanding the needs and desires of other people.
when talking to an interested prospect looking for a home business it is important to remeber how you can help them and how they can help you.

A network marketer will have better success long term by establishing the needs of others and how those needs will help you and your team build a business that will create financial rewards and long term relationships.

I really believe that constant interaction with your team and helping is key to bringing achievements to each and everyone in a business. In my business i find it much more responsive to connect live and manage an understanding between me and my team that way we move forward and create life changing rewards.

In this article I am going to cover the 5 key things you need to know before joining a network marketing company some of the material will overlap from my article starting your home business. However, i will go into more depth on  a network marketing company.

The Myths

• The compensation plan is the most Important
• Your Upline will do it all for you
• The product sells it self
• The company is new so now is a good time to start

I do agree that a compensation plan or package is important but is not your No 1 concern, knowing what the plan will offer you and your downlines when you bring more prospects into the business and of course you are in business to make money, but you should be looking mainly at the benefit the products will offer your customers and how you can help them first and foremost.

If a company claims that your upline will do it all for you dismiss this straight away your upline is there to guide you and help you not to do everything for you.

If the product sells itself then why do they need you, a good product requires good information by you learning about the product and having faith in what you are offering, will build trust with your prospects and genuine valuable no hype information will get you sales providing the product is worthy and satisfies a need for the customer.

Be aware of new companies i am not saying they won’t be good but many companies come and go very quickly and unless you are completely satisfied with the product and how the company is progressing in its efforts to move forward be careful. Having said all that new companies with an experienced background and sound vision with good products can be a goldmine as you can have a good start on building a solid team.

Do your research here. As a rule of thumb a company that has been in business for five years is usually quite sound and more likely to continue but again really research to find out more.

Quite often a company that is new still has a lot of work still to be done, so you could have paid in but not really receiving the true benefit of your money until all the plans and structure have been approved and in place.

The Essential 5 key things

• Product Demand
• Network Marketing Model
• Upline your sponsor
• Company Resources
• Compensation Package

Product Demand The most important component of your network marketing company is the product or products, there must be a demand for what you are offering, now the company would have done there research and justified the reason for choosing the products. But it is a good idea to do some research too, to make sure there is a demand from your target market and that they want such a product and willing to buy this from you.

How much the products are going to cost and can you see the value for such a product for your customers what will be the benefits

Network Marketing Model will the company allow you to be different you want to eventually have your own capture page so you can brand you not the company and the leads you bring in will be your leads and prospects not just the companies you want too have access to all that hard work you are putting in to attract these leads. So when you decide to join a company it is important that you can differentiate from all the others in the company by branding you.

Upline your sponsor will play a big role in your success with the company you need to be happy and have confidence in a person that you will be in contact with and they are willing to give you enough time to help and guide you in the right direction it is important that you stay connected and discuss the methods on how you are going to promote the products. Receive feedback and advice.

Company Resources does the company have training, meetings, web site product conference calls and has the company been in business for at least 5 years. Now this does not mean that you should not join a new company but having 5 years experience and the company is still strong then it will be good bet if all the other things are in place. oh and make sure they don’t have to much hype in their advertising and feel comfortable in what they are using to promote.

Compensation Package bottom of the list but you want to know what are the benefits to you and your team is it easy and simple to understand.
