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.

Make Money In MLM – How?
MLM, which stands for multi level marketing, is also called network marketing in some circles. It is a strategy utilised by some companies that sets up a sales and a marketing force that the company will compensate those who sell their products, as well as those who bring in new people to the marketing team. Some people have been able to actually make money in MLM, while others have not. You have to be committed to your MLM business and put a lot of time in for it to work. Otherwise you will not see any significant results.
If you are only going to try to make money in MLM for a month, and then quit when you don’t see the big money results you were hoping for, you may as well not even try to begin with, as you will just be wasting your time. You will have to be committed to this for the long term and not just be thinking of making a quick buck, because that will just not happen. Most likely you will make money your first month, probably not a lot, but you have to have a positive attitude going in.
Also remember that, if you want to make money in MLM, you will need to listen to mentors who have achieved the same results you are looking for and follow any advice they give you. A lot of times, especially younger folks, will think that they know everything and don’t have to listen to someone else. This would be a good time to follow the example of someone who has been there and done that, knows what works and what doesn’t and has probably found a way to make it work in his favour, so he has probably made some mistakes along the way, and can teach you how to avoid them.
What Is The Difference Between MLM And Direct Sales?
Today, most home business opportunities are found in the MLM or Direct Sales industry as they are ideal for people looking to achieve financial freedom. So, what’s the difference between MLM and Direct Sales and which one should you choose? While they may have some similarities, the primary difference is the compensation model. The direct sales model is recommended if you want to generate a large income.
MLM is the old traditional business model which has always been based on working hard for 3-5 years to have freedom and better lifestyle as well as to build a life-long residual income for the future. Unfortunately very few network marketers achieve these goals. In this day and age of the internet, MLM distributors are still being taught the old marketing methods such as chasing family and friends, buying leads, cold-calling prospects, bugging strangers and so on. The distributors tend to work very hard around the clock for tiny commissions when they should be making more money for their efforts and watch their teams being depleted due to constant attrition.
At the moment, more and more network marketers quit their MLM businesses as fast as they join! In fact, there are also new MLM company launches coming up all the time and people keep jumping ships, looking for the next big thing. The new company would make promises to be the biggest and the best with their new fantastic products that will change the world. Before you know it, they are faced with the same problems they had in their previous company. Continue reading.
What To Look For In Choosing A Network Marketing Business?
Network marketing is extremely powerful because you can make lots of money, have complete freedom and live the life of your dreams! However, there are so many opportunities out there today and new ones are coming up all the time.
Most people when they join these opportunities, they get so excited and hyped up that they have the best products and they are going to take over the market. Well, in reality that’s not the case. Thousands and thousands of network marketers fail in this industry – they spend themselves out of business every single day!
So, it becomes difficult for new people to know exactly what to look for in a network marketing business and how to choose the best one. In order to be successful in this type of business, you need to do your due diligence – do your research and look out for the criteria HERE:

Are You GUILTY Of Committing These Deadly Sins?
If you’re looking to achieve financial freedom through network marketing and you’re still committing the 7 deadly sins below, then you’re in for a rude awakening my friend!… These deadly sins will kill your business in its infancy… That’s right, KILL it!
Sin #1: Purchasing expensive, dead-beat leads from your company’s lead vendors… when you SHOULD be generating your own, highly qualified leads completely FREE of charge…
Sin #2: Alienating your family and friends by constantly pitching your opportunity to them… when you SHOULD have qualified prospects contacting you on a daily basis, credit card in hand to buy your products or join your business…
How This Cool BMW Could Be Yours!!
How would you like to take home a brand new 2009 BMW 335i Coupe before the end of this year??? Who wouldn’t?!… So, how could this beautiful dream machine be yours?
Well, MLMLeadSystemPro can make that possible for you! This is hands down, the #1 rated, fastest growing, most successful attraction marketing system in the industry! It is one of its kind and you can use it to build any MLM or direct sales business. It’s smart and yet simple.
How Much Does Mindset Really Matter?
In order for your business to prosper, you must prosper both mentally and physically. You are not able to run your business if you’re physically ill and you can’t give your business all that it needs if you’re mentally negative. If you constantly think and hope for a mediocre business, then you’re likely to get that or less.
If you treat your home business like a business, it will make you money and if you treat your home business like a hobby, it will cost you money! Even if success doesn’t come to you in the manner in which you expect, your positive attitude can help you to put more faith in your business and new opportunities will present themselves.
Plan carefully, be patient, remain positive through everything and you will become a success!
