MLM Network Marketing Training- Networking Your Way to a New Financial Future!

Networking Your Way to A New Financial Future!
By Beverly Nadler

The type of business that is currently creating a great deal of interest and excitement among people from all walks of life is Network Marketing or Multi-Level Marketing (MLM). Though the concept has been around for over 30 years, it's now attracting many people who never would have considered MLM before. Especially white collar workers and professionals. They're taking another look at this industry, because, after all, most of their businesses were built, and their financial bases created, by doing exactly what MLMers do - networking.
MLM may well be the "last frontier" for the entrepreneur with more moxie than money to start his or her own business. At the same time it gives the average person trying to "make it" on a salary, the opportunity to earn a second income in his or her own business, with relatively low risks. And now that we are facing massive lay-offs, firings, bankruptcies and unemployment, a low-cost, low-risk way to earn money is essential.

MLM/Networking Marketing has been evolving and changing continuously, and the 90s will be no exception. At one time, MLM was known as a "soap-selling" industry; then it evolved so that most consumables people buy in stores could be bought through MLM, especially nutrition and skin care products. In the 80s many non-consumables and major big-ticket items became available. Also in the 80s we saw services marketed through MLM. NOW something new has been added. There are several companies that are using Network Marketing to help charities accomplish their worthy goals - such as taking care of the homeless, helping to feed the poor, cleaning up the environment etc.

Your Sponsor and Your UplineOnce you've decided on your company, you want a sponsor who is actively involved in your company to give you the help you need. Sometimes your direct sponsor is new in the business, and that's fine as long as the person who sponsors him or her (called your "upline") will work with you. It's vital that you can get the marketing materials and training you need. Since most companies DON'T supply training (except in manuals most distributors don't read), your sponsor or upline must be willing to help you and train you, especially if you are new to MLM, or have not been successful in your other MLM efforts.

Your sponsor, or your upline, should be able to get you answers to your questions, and show you how to present your company's product or service, AND now to present the business opportunity. He or she should help you recruit new distributors form among your contacts, so you can build your downline organization. Since many companies do not have all the sales aids you are likely to need, it can be helpful to have a sponsor or upline who creates and/or duplicates necessary material for you to use with your people.

Some Additional ThoughtsThere are thousands of MLM companies to chose from. But only a few will be right for YOU. Once you've become a distributor, you are in business for yourself with all the advantages and risks of owning your own business. It may be a major undertaking where you will distribute a large line of products, or it may be a part-time involvement with a service company. It is still YOUR business. Perhaps you know that according to statistics, most small businesses fail (MLM and non-MLM alike). So what? As long as you live you're going to have to take risks if you want to move ahead. From the moment you wake up and decide to go out into the world, rather than stay in the relative safety of your home, you assume a risk.

Nothing great was ever accomplished without assuming risks. NO one ever changed his or her tomorrows by living life just as it was lived yesterday. If you have dreams of a better life - for yourself, your family, perhaps even for mankind - there is no better way to see them materialize than to commit yourself to taking that bold step forward. In the words of Goethe (who is much quoted these days): "Whatever you can do or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genious, power and magic in it. Begin it now!"

Some of the newer, simple inexpensive programs can help you "learn while you earn" (just don't confuse these programs with chain letters, where there are no centralized computers and no real product). This is an easy way to find out for yourself why so many millions of people are involved with MLM/Network Marketing, and find out for yourself if this industry is for you. With the right company and the right upline, it probably is!
