If you are in an MLM company struggling to make money and looking for a quick way to get cash flowing in fast and steady, this article will show you how to accomplish it.
Listen to this:
Not long ago I got a consulting call from someone who was in an MLM company. He was having a hard time making any money at all—much less recouping his initial $1,800 investment.
He did not know where to go or who to turn to. All of the ideas and literature his company gave him weren't working but he still believed in the product.
Here is what I advised him to do:
I told him, first of all, forget about selling any product or sponsoring anyone for the time being.
He can still do all that, but for now, he needs to do something a bit different if he wants to make any money in his MLM business.
I told him that there were two things he could do:
1.) He can call and interview the top ten or so distributors at his company and ask them how they are making so much money.
In other words, what are they doing? How are they sponsoring or selling so much? Are they doing what their home company says? Or are they doing something different?
And what I told him he could do is take these interviews and do mini "joint ventures" with each person he interviews, selling that product to their downlines and splitting the profits.
That is the first idea I suggested.
2.) The second idea is to do the same thing, except make it more generic. Take out all the company specific stuff and sell it to all MLM people in general.
In other words, you are selling all the best sponsoring and product sales techniques and showing all MLM people—not just those in your business—how to do them.
And that's all there is to it.
The idea here is to merge your network marketing business with an "information" marketing business. Get the best of both worlds.
There are a ton of hungry prospects out there wanting to make it big in MLM. If you can be the person with the secrets—whether you are selling to people in your own company or people in all MLM companies—you can make a fortune selling this kind of information.

Response to: The Golden Age of Digital Marketing - 23 July 2008

89N The Golden Age of Digital Marketing - 23 July 2008
It was with much interest that I read the report on the Netimperative Directors? Dinner discussing the golden age of digital marketing.
I completely agree that the marketing profession faces many challenges in its ambition to be taken seriously at the highest levels of business. As the various speakers highlighted, one of the key challenges is the perception of what marketing is.
Recent research carried out for The Chartered Institute of Marketing by Ipsos MORI revealed that 73 per cent of working marketers surveyed believed there was a large gap between the reality of what marketing does and how it is seen by other parts of the business.
Until marketing is recognised as a key driver of value in organisations, it will struggle to gain the respect of other professional business colleagues. However, marketing must earn that respect.
As highlighted by several speakers, marketers must reach out to colleagues in other functions and those at a senior level, and communicate clearly with them the value they create for the organisation, in terms they understand ? which in boardrooms is predominantly financial.
The Institute continues to promote the profession and attempt to change attitudes towards marketing in the wider business community. It has established links with various government departments to promote professional marketing, and has developed professional marketing standards that employers can benchmark their employees against.
The drive towards proper recognition and respect for the vital role marketing has to play in today?s organisations has to start with greater accountability and clearly demonstrating the value marketers create.
I am in no doubt that digital marketing, with its greater measurability, will be in the vanguard of marketers? increasing acceptance at the top table.

Small Scale Affiliate Marketing
By: Shikina | 22-07-2008
I'm looking to establish a direct affiliate relationship between myself (the affiliate) and one specific retailer that I deal with regularly. They're not looking for any other affiliates other than myself, but I need this to be a software-based solution. Anybody know of any generic code out there that I could modify and pass off to the partner? Are there any other solutions that don't involve paying huge upfront costs, or a recurring commission to a 3rd party network? Your help is greatly appreciated!
