With Lena Bjorna at a marketing event - Oslo, Norway
Lena uses very effective lead generation strategies, which she also teaches her team to use. I am confident that you’re going to find today’s post very informative and helpful… And it’s entitled “Got Leads?”
Get A Flood Of Targeted Leads For Your Business!
Everyone’s always complaining that they aren’t generating enough leads for their online businesses…
So am I taking issue with that? Isn’t lead generation important?
Well, of course it is. Leads, as all of us marketers know, are the fuel for our marketing engines.
However…lead generation means nothing if you don’t know how to convert those leads into customers and sales for your MLM business!
The Two Skill Sets You Must Master To Succeed With Internet Marketing
Successful online marketing is about TWO things.
1. Generate leads.
2. Get the leads to convert into sales.
Miss one of the two, and you’re DONE. You’ll soon find yourself buried in the Internet graveyard, with wasted time and ad dollars left as your only legacy.
Okay. So how do you best go about each of the two? 1. Generating MLM leads, and 2. Getting the leads to convert into sales?
Well, in order to generate sufficient leads for your online business, you’ll want to use some form of direct response marketing.
Examples of direct response strategies would be pay-per-click — either on Google, Yahoo, Bing, or (the very latest) Facebook PPC.
Another example would be paid media. My favorite paid media method is banner ads, which by the way, you can do quite inexpensively and generate heaps of leads with very quickly.
How To Get A Flood Of Targeted Leads For Your MLM Business
We call the above methods “direct response” because you are simply responding to your prospective customers’ needs.
They are already out there actively looking for you. Not by name, obviously, but they are typing in actual keywords that pertain to your offer. Or at the very least they are on a web site reading about something pertinent to your offer.
And voila, there you are with your banner or text ad, announcing that “Here it is. Here is the answer to all your troubles.”
Do you see how powerful that is? You are simply placing yourself in front of those who are already looking for what you have to offer!
And the following you can write down in red, highlight and underline: As a new marketer, you must have some sort of direct response marketing strategy in place to produce sufficient leads for your internet marketing business.
Social media marketing or content advertising just ain’t gonna do it. You aren’t consistently going to generate 30+ leads a day for your online business writing articles or press releases, shooting videos, or interacting with people on Twitter.
(Sorry if I’m stepping on someone’s toes here, but I’m just saying it as it is.)
And 30 highly targeted MLM leads per day is the very least that you require in order to see consistent growth in your business.
Are You Just Wasting Your Time With Social Media? Here’s How To Do It Right…
So, then, is there any use at all in social media? In shooting videos, and writing articles and blog posts?
Much in every way. But it’s probably not what you have been led to believe.
What these strategies are primarily meant to do, is help convert your traffic into customers and reps/members for your MLM business.
When your prospects google your name (which people do, believe me!), you’ll want them to actually find something. Something of value. Some content that you have created (or outsourced), which helps builds trust and establish you as an expert. A leader.
Because – and this really is Attraction Marketing 101 – we all prefer to buy from and work with those that we like, trust, and whose opinions we value.
And your task is to make your prospects feel that way about you!
If You Don’t Want To Wait Months To Make Money In Your MLM…
The added benefit of content advertising and social media marketing (although not their main purpose) is that they, over time, also serve to generate quality traffic for your MLM or internet marketing business.
But yes, it does take time. “Time” as in, well…likely several months.
And my guess is that you probably don’t want to wait months to make money in network marketing!
Therefore, my advice to you is to pick a direct response marketing strategy that fits your budget and your overall marketing plan, so that you can get the lead flow you need from early on.
And at the same time, start to work on building trust and establishing credibility through your online presence by consistently publishing new content and making yourself known on the social networks.

It wasn’t long ago when I felt stuck. You see, I failed miserably in my MLM business. I had invested a lot of time, money and energy into my opportunity, however, it was nothing but an uphill battle.
I had a mounting credit card debt, a drained bank account, a pile of products in my living room and a dissolving downline. I was clearly getting nowhere.

Online Business Success – How Important Is Persistence?
The internet is now the most powerful business medium ever created, offering people countless online business opportunities and creating a huge global market. Just imagine having a direct access to a marketplace of over one billion people – incredible! So, by leveraging the internet you can market and sell your products or services to the largest and most lucrative marketplace, from the comfort of your own home or from wherever.
Now, too many times, the vast majority of people who end up starting an online business do so because they get all hyped-up about some “ground-floor” online business opportunity or some “super” new product that they think will over-take the market and make them millions in the process.
But why do most people fall into the 97% category and fail to realise their dreams and to achieve their goals?

Is Keyword Research Really Necessary?
Keyword research is one of the most important skills you need to learn and use if you want to become successful with your network marketing business. This process is highly important for video marketing, article marketing, blogging and Pay Per Click advertising.
In this article, I will focus on content marketing. And if you skip this step when creating your content, then your articles and videos may not be visible on the search engines and may be found by only a few people or none at all. Keywords are everything in internet marketing!
The internet is huge and you need to be mindful that your content will be isolated online, unless you learn how to rise above the noise so that people can find your information. There would be no point in posting your best articles and videos if people can’t read and watch them.
Attraction Marketing Tips: Get The Right Marketing System!
Attraction Marketing is the primary foundation for success in any home business. Marketing is no longer about your company or your products. People resist to be sold and don’t want to be convinced to buy or join a business opportunity. The old methods such as cold-calling prospects, chasing family and friends, pushing for sales are no longer effective.
In order to build a successful network marketing business, it is important that you should practice Attraction Marketing. It’s about you establishing yourself as a leader and the expert in the marketplace, providing great value freely and building long-term relationships with your prospects and customers-to-be. This process will earn you people’s trust and respect and they will eventually start selling themselves on to your products or services. Trust is a major factor as people buy from those they trust and like.
The other day I had a chat with someone who is also into network marketing. I asked her how she was marketing her business. She said she was building relationships with people as people buy from those they know, like and trust. I thought she was on the right track and then asked her how she was driving traffic to her business. She said that she was not focused on driving traffic but on building relationships…
Which Domain Name Should You Choose?
One of the questions I get from the new and aspiring internet marketers is, “which domain name should I choose?”. Choosing a name for your website may seem insignificant but it’s very important to have a good one as it should give people an idea of what’s behind it.
The internet is blitzed with a lot of advertising and anyone can put anything online. This has resulted in a high level of skepticism among searchers. Trust is a huge factor as people buy from those they like and trust.
People often make their decision to buy based on the ad, domain name, the website they are directed to and so on. If these are hypey and dodgy, then people will turn off to. First impressions are everything!
Home Based Internet Business – Focus On The Activities That Produce Results!
So you have started a new home based internet business and you discover that there are many different opportunities coming your way as you embark on your network marketing journey. There are endless new systems and tools coming out all the time and it can be difficult to resist the temptation to try new things coming into the market. You are also overwhelmed by the different marketing strategies available and find yourself wanting to learn and use them all.
Like most new internet marketers, with time you start feeling overwhelmed, frustrated and not seeing the results you were looking for.
So, what’s missing? There is one HUGE problem that plagues many internet marketers today, and that is the lack of FOCUS. Focus is a very important ingredient and can make a difference between success and failure in your home based internet business.
