3 Simple Steps to Position Yourself As a Leader in Network Marketing

Mike — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 20:25:23 +0000

People are always looking for leaders that they can model themselves after. This is especially true in the network marketing industry. If you can position yourself as a leader, you’ll soon find that prospects will come in by the droves to your marketing system and will follow what you have to say and be much more likely to join your business. With the power of the Internet, positioning yourself as a leader is easier than ever and can really be done in 3 simple steps.

And the steps I’m going to talk about can literally be followed by anyone that’s reading this. You don’t have to be a scholar, a business tycoon, or even a celebrity to position yourself as a leader in the network marketing industry, or any industry for that matter. All it takes is a commitment to get out there, do the work that’s necessary, and soon you’ll find that people are now looking to you as a leader.

As a matter of fact, people will probably start to think of you as a leader before you really believe it yourself, if you just follow these 3 simple steps…

Step #1 – Create Valuable Content. All real leaders are providing some type of valuable content to their followers. Whether you’re sharing a new process that saves you 30 minutes a day in your business or if you’re teaching people about a new service that’s allowed you to grow your propsect list by 20% this week, provide content that’s valuable.

People can see through when you’re just giving out content that is not honest and genuine. Everything you create has to come directly from you and be directed to your core audience. People are attracted to valuable content and want content that they can immediately put into place in their own business and life. If you’re the one that’s providing this content, you’ll soon be looked upon as a leader and you’ll attract more people to yourself.

Step #2 – Be Yourself. I can’t stress this enough. If you’re not being true to who you are in your business, you’re only heading down a road of complete failure. People can see through to who you really are in everything that you do online. If you’re constantly promoting something that really has no benefit to your followers, they’re going to eventually get tired of you and leave you behind, following after someone else that is being true to their inner beliefs and values.

Step #3 – Be Acessible to Everyone. Now I don’t mean that you need to give out your personal information to everyone in the world that you want to join your business. That’s just asking for trouble. What I do mean is that you want to be available wherever your target audience is at.

It’s about more than having a blog. It’s about more than creating a couple of videos. It means being in every place possible on the Internet that you can be. Hang out on websites in your market. Forums are still a great place to show off what you know and attract people. Be involved on Facebook and Twitter, but don’t be spammy. Provide real value and real content that people can follow.

If you start following these 3 steps, I know that you’ll soon look around at all of the new followers you’ve picked up and wonder where they all came from. And they you’ll realize that you’ve become a network marketing leader and, suddenly, you’re having more success in your business than you ever thought was possible.

Now, if you’re ready to learn more about what it takes to become a leader in network marketing and start attracting leads to you from everywhere, I invite you to pick up your copy of Magnetic Sponsoring.

Network Marketing Success Tips – Leveraging Your Content to Attract More Leads to Your Business

Mike — Tue, 09 Mar 2010 12:05:24 +0000

If you’ve spent any time online at all and you’re wanting to build your network marketing business, you’ve probably learned that the key to growth is to create content.

And not just any content. To get the best results, you need to create high-quality original content that positions you as a leader and a go-to source of information that others can learn from. This is especially true in the network marketing industry. People are looking online every day to find a way, any way, that they can promote their opportunity to as many people as possible, since network marketing really is just a matter of numbers. The more people that you talk to, the more success you will have.

So, how to you get your content out there on the web? How can you leverage your work so that it provides the highest possible return for your investment of time?

It’s a good thing you’re reading this, because I’m about to show you how with another one of my patented 3-step processes that I use on a DAILY basis to grow my own business.

Step #1 – Create ONE Piece of Content. Now, how you create this content is entirely up to you. Everyone has their own favorite way of creating content. Some will record something in an audio format. Some will write an article. Some will create a video. How you choose to create your content is completely up to you and should reflect your personal style. Myself, I ALWAYS write out my content first. It just makes me feel better to see everything out on the page, then I create everything from there. The most important thing to do here is to GET THE CONTENT CREATED. No content, no leads, it’s as simple as that, folks. Get started, get moving, and start creating some content.

Step #2 – Repurpose that ONE piece of content. Now, here’s where we’re going to get some people out of their comfort zones. To really leverage your results, you’re going to need to have your content available in multiple forms on multiple sites. Here’s just a few things you can do with one piece of content, and I recommend you do ALL of them for maximum leverage of your work.

Blog Post
Article
Video
Audio Podcast
Email Newsletter
Press Release

There’s some more options available for you, but that’s enough to get you started. If you’re not creating any of these different types of content, you’re missing out. Even if you only repurpose your content in just ONE way, you will increase your results exponentially.

Step #3 – Get your content in as many places as possible. You’ve done the work of creating the content, now you’ve got to get it on the web. And I’m sure you’ve learned by now, there’s about a million places online that you can submit content to. You don’t have to submit to all of them, just the ones that will offer you the best leverage for your work. Now, you can go about it the “old school” way and submit each piece of content to one site at a time. Or, you can do it the new way with a submission service that posts to article, video, and audio directories online. Be careful choosing a service, however. Some are fantastic and provide a lot of return, but many just submit to junk directories that really get you nowhere.

Bonus Step (I love bonuses…) – If you want to get the best submission service out there and really start seeing your results EXPLODE quickly, I highly recommend Easy Push Button Traffic. With Easy PBT, you’ll be able to submit your articles, videos, audios, and even press releases (which totally ROCK!) to the biggest, highest powered directories out there. Simple to use, easy to understand, and incredibly powerful, Easy PBT is THE choice for content submission. Best of all, you can try it out for only $1. How’s that for some incredible deal goodness? Sign up for Easy Push Button Traffic now and start submitting your content!

Just to recap, it’s all just a simple 3-step process to start positioning yourself as a leader online and leverage your work for the highest return. Just follow the process of Create, Repurpose, and Submit, and you’ll soon find that you’ve got more leads coming into your business than you ever thought was humanly possible.

Frank Kern’s Core Influence – Do You Need It?

Mike — Tue, 02 Mar 2010 21:19:56 +0000

Frank Kern. A name that has become synonymous with big ticket sales, big launches, big videos, and big, outrageously huge sales days.

Like ridiculously big.

Seriously, I mean like HUGE.

I can’t even begin to describe to you the HUGENESS that is Frank Kern.

Not that I have any firsthand experience…

I’m telling you all this to get to my main point, which is about Frank’s Core Influence presentation. Now, let’s get some things out in the open right now. Core Influence is not something new from Frank. This presentation is roughly 2 years old. Given at one of Rich Schefren’s conferences, Frank sheds some light on his “Mass Control” launch and some of his other launches at that time and why they had done so well.

More importantly, Frank gives away the “keys to the kingdom” on how you can find the same success with your own sales.

Literally.

Now, I’ve got to admit, this was the first time I’ve ever seen this presentation. I’ve never bought Mass Control or any of Frank’s other products, but I’ve sat quietly back and watched…with amazement.

I’ve seen this guy that looks like a complete drifter sell millions of dollars worth of stuff without even having to break a sweat, twist anybody’s arm, or give away $10 million worth of free crap just to make a measly sale.

That ain’t how this guy works, folks.

And now, I know exactly why. I know why he’s able to do what he does.

I understand how he’s able to connect to something deep inside me and seemingly, inside each one of his customers.

And how he makes it all look so easy. And I also understand why I haven’t seen some of that same success in my own business and life. I’ve been going about things the completely wrong way.

I thought I knew what my target market was. Heck, I thought I knew who I was.

Completely wrong on both parts. And I’m willing to bet that you’re going to be completely wrong yourself, after you get done watching this amazing video.

Yes, it’s long. Nearly two hours. But, I will guarantee you it will change your life, if you’re willing to be open to what information is given and start putting things into action.

There’s some deep stuff in this video and you may not like what you see when you start taking a look at yourself, your life, and your business. But, be brave, dear marketer. There is truth in this information, life-changing truth.

Take a look for yourself and see what you find. You’ll be a better person, and a better marketer, once you’ve seen it and act.

3 Things Every Affiliate Marketer Needs to Grow Their Business

Affiliate Marketing is a great way for anyone to get started with an online business. However, far too many affiliate marketers concentrate on growing someone else’s business and not growing their own. Here are three essential tips that every aspiring affiliate marketer must follow to grow their own business and achieve real success online.

Starting your Online Business: A Series

Mike — Thu, 31 Dec 2009 13:00:25 +0000

It’s a new year and many of us are deep in that mode of setting goals and creating those “New Year’s Resolutions” that everyone does during January. We promise ourselves that we’re going to lose weight, eat healthier, get a better job, improve our relationships, love our spouses more, kick the dog less, go on a trip…and so on and so forth.

I’m hoping that many of you out there have decided that this year is the year you’re going to start your own online business. And that doesn’t mean you have to come up with the next Amazon, eBay, Facebook, Twitter, or anything else. It just means that you’re going to use the Internet to create either a supplemental or even a full-time income for yourself and your family.

Good for you, you’ve taken the first step on a fantastic and exciting journey.

But, where do you start? You’ve heard lots of people talk about how they make money online. And I’m sure you’ve seen more than your share of late-night infomercials blasting you in the face with the promise of pre-built websites that you just put on the Internet and the money starts rolling in.

I’m still waiting on the money to roll in from those myself. But that’s another story all together…

Starting an Online Business is quite possibly the best and easiest way for someone to start their own business, outside of a network marketing company. The start-up costs are very low, ongoing maintenance is very low, as well. Which has a lot to do with the allure of an online business. You don’t have to have a lot of money to get started, certainly nowhere near the money required to start a brick-and-mortar business with nowhere near the overhead.

But, there’s a lot more to it than just putting up a website. Unfortunately, it’s not as easy as, “If you build it, they will come.”

I wish it were true, because we’d all have a lot more money right now. And we might all have Shoeless Joe Jackson playing baseball in our backyards.

We’ve just talked about setting your goals for 2010 and an online business may be the cornerstone of those goals, at least some of them. And if one or more of your goals involve increasing your income or working from home full-time, I can’t think of a better way to get started than with your own online business.

Over the next days and weeks we’ll be talking a lot about your online business and how to get started. We’ll be covering a variety of topics, including but certainly not limited to…

Selecting what type of online business is right for you
Creating a website for your online business
Should you have a blog for your business?
How to promote your business
How to generate traffic to your website
Planning your online efforts
And more!

I’m certainly pumped about helping you in any and every way that I can to get you up and running. I’ll be rolling out some special events and training for those of you that are interested as we go along, but for now just get your mindset ready for great things.

I’m confident that this year is going to be your best year ever and I look forward to joining you on your journey.

To Your Success, World Changers,

Mike Paul
