MLM Business Tool Kit



MLM Business Tool Kit

Step 6: Create your mlm business tool kit early so that you enjoy life on top of your business and do not get buried in it.

Looking for the right mlm business tool for the right mlm job? Take a look through my tool kit and see what you can utilize. Remember the importance of having systems and tools is so that you do not create yourself a 24/7 home based JOB! If you have not read Michael Gerber’s E-Myth then this may be a great place to start. Michael teaches the importance of implementing systems in your business so that you can work ON your business instead of IN your business. And that is vitally important for MLM / Network Marketing home based businesses also; because the goal is financial FREEDOM isn’t it?

These are the systems and tools I use myself so if you have any questions about anything I mention here, please feel free to ask me (Re: MLM Business Tool Kit).

Below I have listed my top 10 must haves for my own MLM Business Tool Kit.

1) Success Mindset

Your own mindset (attitude) will make or break your success. I can not imagine how life would be if I had not studied the mind and attitudinal concepts long ago. I have spent many years and a small fortune in the study of personal development (That small fortune continually comes back multiplied). I think of life before self realization as walking around with a sack over my head and not even being aware that my vision and life experience was so blocked. Now you may not want to be as 'all consumed' with success mindset training as I was, but here are one or two key products that will catapult you towards developing a mindset that empowers, excites and deepens your life experiences and success.

2) Marketing Budget Funding System

Be sure to establish a monthly marketing budget, to promote your MLM opportunity, other than word of mouth. And I learned early that it was a good idea to have a way of FUNDING my marketing budget. Having a 'multiple streams of income' mindset is the key. Affiliate marketing is the doorway.

3) MLM Business Tools for Communications

Skype for Economic Telephony is my #1 most used mlm business tool. - Most local phone companies offer unlimited calling plans. I found companies range from $20-25 per month for unlimited calling. If you call internationally, check for discounts with certain plans (An example would be $2.95 per month and then 11 cents a minute, without the plan, you could pay approx $4 per minute). Another option would be VOIP (Voice Over Internet Protocol) - a lot of people like the free Skype service. Personally, I prefer to use a Skype Unlimited World subscription - With Skype ‘Unlimited World’, you can make calls any time of day, any day of the week to landlines in 34 countries worldwide without the need for a long term contract. All subscriptions contain online numbers that let your friends, family or business contacts reach you directly on Skype. Go to www.voip.simplyseen.com and look for their new subscriptions if you want to check that out.

InstantTeleSeminar for Online Seminars. Obviously, big hitters use teleseminars. I'm sure you've been on a few. Why do they bother? Because they work! Now you can short-cut the learning process.

Check it out via this link and you'll get access to InstantTeleseminar for a full 21 days for only $1!

4) Contact Management Software

Oprius is the contact management software I use! (And I no longer need the separate autoresponder account with aWeber I started out with) This is my 2nd most used mlm business tool.

You can reduce your learning curve with Oprius by setting aside an hour to enjoy the following training resources.

  • Register for an Oprius 101 Live Webinar (held weekly) and get all your questions answered on this live tour of Oprius

  • Watch the Oprius set up guide and see how easy it is to setup and customize your new Oprius account.

5) Auto Responders

aWeber is recognized as the best in stand alone autoresponders. I used the service up until Oprius came onto the market. But if you do not need the full Oprius kit with all the bells and whistles aWeber is an essential MLM business tool to have. Here is some free Autoresponder Training from aWeber

6) Postcard Marketing System

If you've been involved in business for any length of time you obviously understand the critical importance of follow-up in building a profitable home business. THIS Referral Technique is the Secret Business Weapon of my mlm business tool kit.

7) Copywriting

Stuck for words?An excellent A-Z copywriting guide specifically geared towards the internet is The Online Copywriter's Handbook : Everything You Need to Know to Write Electronic Copy That Sells. Or Words That Sell gives you 57 alternatives. How about "appealing?" Take your pick from 76 synonyms. You'll even find more than 100 variations on "exciting." Fully updated and expanded, this edition of the copywriting classic is packed with inspiration-on-demand for busy professionals who need to win customers--by mail, online, or in person. Read more about these and more great Copywriting books on Amazon

8) Web Sites

Owning an effective website is possible the single most important mlm business tool you can have. But you will need to be careful and build a network marketing website that stays compliant with your mlm company's policies

9) MLM Leads

Oh dear… BE VERY CAREFUL if you must opt for the quick fix and you decide to buy leads. I've run some test marketing campaigns to many different lead supply sources and have had dismal results. But I just had to get my own information first. Everybody (if they are honest) will tell you NOT to buy MLM leads but I'm one of those people who has to 'learn why' for himself – whatever the cost! The bottom line - don't BUY leads, generate your own! Read the Attraction Marketer Manifesto, (it is free!)

10) Pay Per Click – PPC - Google Adwords

Perry Marshall is the best when it comes to learning about Google AdWords PPC (Pay Per Click) marketing campaigns. If you know what you are doing PPC is a quick and inexpensive mlm business tool. If YOU DO NOT KNOW what you are doing PPC is an expensive and fruitless exercise!

You can overcome the Google AdWords learning-curve with this free cheat sheet and Perry's FREE 5-Day Course which will gives you the skinny on Google AdWords
