This is why most people today want to start an online business. Like the internet, MLM or network marketing and they want to get rich overnight or press a magic button and the money will appear. Get real and know that all of these marketing positions outlined work, given time, focus, and dedication, just like any other job or job you can find.
Network and Internet marketing is related to MLM. In the sense that you must use internet and networking skills to find potential prospects through social media, blogs, and forums. You can earn a lot of money once you get into network marketing alongside MLM. As they say “it takes money to make money” Your marketing budget will largely determine how many and the quality of leads you start to attract. Hence the term attraction marketing.
As your awareness begins to grow along with the number of times your followers see you, certain places like social media sites, blogs, and other public events will determine your reputation and credibility. As you continue to grow through the ropes, you can monetize your sites and blogs while funneling potential prospects to your business. Hence the term affiliate marketing.
Affiliate marketing is used a lot in the initial stages of people’s MLM businesses and websites. It’s so easy that you don’t have to market or manufacture your own product, you can simply market someone else’s product or service. This tactic helped me generate over $ 1800 in less than a month promoting The Tweet Tank when it first came out. (Twitter Automator Software).
The tactics I used during that 24 day period were as follows.
1. The Tweet Tank – The same software that I was promoting and used to generate leads through Twitter.
2. I messed up my list: I destroyed my list twice a week by showing you the results I was getting with this software.
3. Article Writing – The Information Mine is a revenue sharing site and you can post articles there and you used to be able to refer to your site but not anymore. But it still pays pretty well with AdSense.
4. Blogging – Blogging is becoming a very powerful tool and it has been so powerful that now more people are taking notice. Google loves new content and if you provide it, it will send the traffic.
5. PPC- Of course, without Facebook and AdWords my number would not have been possible, but keep in mind that I only spent around $ 80 to market this product and got over 67 leads. Yes, I had AdWords until I got the slap from Google. But okay Google, I still love you. Well, something like that.
