This is Tip 2 in the article series asking what are The MLM Basics For Marketing Online’. The first tip was that you need a system in order to market your business online. You could manage without a system, but having one will save you lots of time, energy and money. The next MLM Basics For Marketing Online Tip is also a biggy! Once you have a system in place, you need to get some training! This is the biggest problem in Network Marketing. Although it is called ‘marketing’, no-one give you any marketing training. Online, however, marketing is key!
How can I get training? If, of course, you now have a system, you will have a ton of training at your fingertips. If you still do not have a system you may have to search for a mentor, and hope that they can give you enough training. Otherwise you would have to learn from your mistakes, just like a huge number of people do online. The trouble with this is that you will probably do what you were taught offline and constantly spew out your information about your business. The people who do this are not professional marketers. It leads to people removing you from their lists of friends, because they are fed up of being sold to.
Getting some form of training online is extremely important. Think how long it would take to be trained in a new job; its the same with internet marketing. You are very unlikely to know exactly what to do on your first day online. If you have been taught out-dated methods, you need to un-learn those first! On the internet we use Attraction Marketing to generate leads. We do not chase prospects around, we do not cold call anyone and we do not pester people as they go about their work. Prospects come to us, because they are attracted to us, not the other way round
The system I use, Lead System Pro, has an unbelievable amount of training in the back office. One particular training attracts people everyday to sign up for it. It is about how to market your business on Facebook. Because marketing on Facebook is so popular, and so many people are joining Facebook everyday, anyone with a business wants to find out how to market there. Our training about writing articles is also very popular.
You will need to be trained in Attraction marketing, as well as some of the different paid methods you can use. When you understand how to market, you will be able to attract leads into your business. First of all you should just train in one or two methods of lead generation. You should only add extra methods once you have the first methods generating a regular amount of leads.
Within a few months you could have a steady stream of leads coming into your business. However, this is not instant. You need to understand that it will take time to get to this position. You may feel that you are doing everything you have been taught, but you are not getting the results you hoped for. It could just be one little tweak that makes all the difference. Just go over the training again, and see if you can pick up something you may have missed the first time. Don’t give up too easily!
