Business
In this episode, I talk about an often-overlooked "bridge" that the top network marketers use to grow their business online. I first got started selling online back in college when a buddy and I spent a semester doing affiliate marketing. The same principles of affiliate marketing apply to network marketers. In fact, these are very simple principles that every other industry on the planet is using online. For some reason, in a lot of network marketing or MLM, there's this negative connotation to using the Internet. I just set these systems up there in the back and my teams are constantly growing and buying and auto-shipping and selling to more customers and they're finding people. And I'm building, I've got some pre-built funnels for them and they just go download them, use them and install them. And you have to understand that's why this game is so powerful. Understand what you can control, understand what your role is in this business. To me, it's not worth it to be continually saying the sales message over and over again, not knowing if they'll do anything and not knowing if they have a pre-existing desire to buy. I'm going to let them self-select. I'm going to let them click on my page. I'm going to let them watch it. I'm going to let them reach out and ask to join my team. And that's how we do it. And that's what I want to teach you guys how to do as well. The leverage is strong, so much so that I don't have to pitch thousands of people. A page is going to do it for me. I'm just going to say my sales message once, and I'm going to follow scripts that I know work. It's like a fill-in-the-blanks template, and then, I'm simply going to drive traffic to it. Stay tuned to bypass the years of trial and error I went through to figure things out.
