Let's look at 8 useless techniques companies teach their distributors, and why they

It's highly unlikely that 96% of all people who start a home based business in Network
Marketing fail because they are lazy or not willing to work. Sure, some people sign up
and throw their distributor kit under the bed, never to open it again and wonder why
they never got rich. Some people even earn some money and then give up when they learn
that it takes hard work and dedication to get up to where the top earners are. But
96%??? That number is just too high to blame on laziness.
The reason these statistics exist is because people don't know true marketing
techniques and principles to grow a business. It's a simple process and anyone can do
it. You just need to know how, and what it is you need to do. Just as there are
countless things that work, there are just as many things that don't work when it
comes to growing a home based business.
Let's look at 8 useless techniques companies teach their distributors, and why they
don't work.
1. Building A List Of Your Friends And Family.
This technique only works for the company as a whole, not for the individual
distributor. If 100,000 people build a list of friends and each gets 2, the company
triples its profits. You, on the other hand, will only earn a whopping check for $3.50
for your efforts. Not to mention being black-listed from the next family reunion
picnic.
2. Passing out business cards, brochures, audios and DVD's.
Companies love teaching this because it is any easy way to get them started without
teaching them the proper marketing techniques. Also they make money off every piece of
literature you purchase from them to give out for FREE! This has you paying for the
company’s advertising, not them, not to mention the one person out of 100 they will
make money from after they sign up from your efforts. Again, for them it's about
numbers.
3. 3-Way Calling.
This is one of the most counter-productive methods to grow a business. if you’re doing
3-way calls to your upline…STOP! Think about this for just a minute. You have a
prospect that has a few questions about the compensation plan and you tell them to
hang on a second while you get Ralph (your upline) on the phone. Who are you working
for at this point, and who becomes the expert in their field? You got it…Ralph is now
the expert and you just acted as the cog in the wheel to help grow your upline’s
organization, but what have you done for your credibility as a business owner. You
COMPLETELY destroyed it.
4. Hotel Meetings and driving all over town.
Doesn't this defeat the purpose having a "home based business?" Time and gas are
costly, and just because you drive a half hour to meet someone for lunch and pay the
tab doesn't mean you will sign them up into your business. Hotel meetings are great
for inspiration, but getting a whole team of people to consistently forfeit a whole
day off to attend is like pulling teeth.
5. The Product Sells Itself.
If this was true, why would the company need you? Products do not sell themselves.
They need advertising and promotion, no matter if they are sold in stores, on
television, or through a network of people. It sounds good, but don't fall for it.
6. Get 3 Who Get 3 To Get Rich.
Have you ever seen a person actually use this approach and become successful because
of it? Probably not. It's a mythical and unrealistic way of growing a business. A
perfect example of "too good to be true."
7. Put Up A Fancy Website And People Will Go To It.
There is an art and science to how a home-based business website should be
constructed, what needs to go on it and getting targeted visitors that truly have a
desire for what you are offering. How useful is a convenience store located out in the
middle of the desert without any directions to get to it? Then, what if someone
actually found it and it wasn't full of anything useful to them? Just having a fancy
website means nothing.
8. Holding Home Parties
How many millionaires do you know that hold house parties? This technique does work if
you want to build a business at a snail's pace. There are easier and faster ways to
making money than inviting a bunch of strangers into your home every week. In today’s
world you just don’t know who you are inviting into your home… do you?
If you want to be successful in Network Marketing, you need to be properly trained on
how to be a marketer, not a distributor. Unfortunately, companies focus on teaching
you how to play the numbers game and it's usually in their favor. If 96% of people
quit but each one gets a few customers ordering products every month, the company as a
whole will keep doing well. You, unfortunately, will never become rich. I know this
from personal experience. I spent over ten years trying everything under the sun. When
I stopped using these techniques and learned the basics of how to be a marketer, my
business finally began to grow enough to stop worrying about money.
Don't give up. Just change your way of thinking.

Things To Watch Out For From A Home Internet Based Business Opportunity

There are so many opportunities on the internet offering to set people up in their own home based internet business that it can be difficult to separate the real, legitimate opportunities from the ones that only want your money. Knowing what to look for hidden within the offers can mean the difference between finding a legitimate business to operate and ending up helping someone else make money while losing your own.
With most fraudulent offers for in internet business there are four red flags that need to be thoroughly investigated before signing up to work for the website. Understand that not all of the companies that make these claims are out to take your money, but these are four things that many less than honest companies have in common:
1. Large upfront investment 2. The chance to make big money with little work 3. Do not clearly state what you will be selling 4. Lack of available contact information
While it is not uncommon for business to want a fee to become a representative for their business, you have to consider the amount demanded from you before you can start selling their product or service. You should also have a clear picture of what you will get in return for your investment. It is common for the term training to be listed, but many times the training consists of links to other sites where you are expected to learn about the company’s business model.
The training may also focus on how to recruit others into the business, offering to pay a “bounty” for bringing in new people. A company that focuses on bringing in more people instead of selling the product may be on the border of being illegal.
Anyone who has ever been involved in a business knows it takes work. One of the most common pitches is the promise of a big payday without having to work more than an hour or two a day…or even a week. There is no such thing as a free lunch and those who try to convince you otherwise and not being totally honest. That disclaimer about income may not a representative of the potential earnings, should beg the question about why even bother to list it.
If you have been reading an online based business opportunity for several minutes and have no idea about the product or service you are being asked to sell, it could be an indication of a scam. Many keep it a secret until you have spent your money and find out there is no way you can sell this to others with a clear conscious. Know what the product is, and how much it will cost, before considering the offer any further.
Look for contact information. If the only means of contacting the company is through an email address, it could be they don’t plan to be around long enough to answer any questions or complaints. Money back guarantees are also only about as good as the contact information. Email addresses and post office boxes are not good contacts.
