The Secret to Choosing the Right MLM
Due to the promise of amazing incomes and the flexibility of working from the comfort of one's own home, multi-level marketing programs, also known as MLM are in high demand. These programs offer their members the ability to create wealth by selling vitamins, vacation packages, long distance service, discount cards - you name it. By "bringing other people into the business" members are able to profit off their downline's sales, receive bonuses, and make "passive income".
So how do you choose the best one? Do you pick the product that is cheaper? Do you pick the supplement with the higher ORAC or the one that has every vitamin and mineral under the sun? Do you pick the newest product on the market with the unbelievable never done before compensation plan? Or do you pick the patented tech gadget?
With so many choices it's easy to lose sight of the goal - to create wealth. In selecting your MLM all that matters is that your product holds real value and provides a solution to the end consumer. Stop stressing about the features and price point. Select a product that you believe in and focus on one thing - MARKETING.
You could have the best Super Vitamin or newest never seen before Tech Gadget, but unless you know how to market it to the right people, you wouldn't make one red cent. The money is not in the product. It is in knowing how to market the product.
Most successful network marketers have bounced around form product to product until stumbling across a marketing system that provided them with the tools to make their product (whatever it may be) attractive to consumers. The secret to choosing the right MLM is not in the product but in the marketing system. Take the time to educate yourself about the business of MLM. Study. Read. Learn from successful marketers and you will be able to find success in just about any reputable MLM of your choosing.

Handling Objections, Part 2
By Randy Gage - February 22nd, 2009
Of all the comments posted on dealing with objections, not having enough money was brought up the most. And ironically, it may be the easiest objection to deal with.Here’s the important thing with this…
You must deal early on with the elephant in the room: namely the current economic crisis. This needs to be mentioned at the start of every presentation these days. And perhaps be a part of any invitation you do. Here’s why…
You prospects are watching TV, reading the papers, and listening to the radio. And all of these media outlets are broadcasting doom and gloom 24/7. These fear-based messages create uncertainty and hesitancy in most who are exposed to them. So even if you have an amazing, compelling presentation, it’s likely your prospect will be thinking that it all sounds great – but the prudent action right now is no action. Their fear mentality leads them to believe their best course of action is to hoard whatever few resources they have left.
But this reaction is very easy to short-circuit…
Simply make it clear in the invitation process or at the beginning of the presentation that you’re offering them a way to beat the recession, protect themselves against further erosion, and even leverage the current economic situation to springboard ahead.
This simple action will create a 180 degree difference in your results. Now during the presentation, your prospect is viewing the business as an opportunity to earn their way out of difficulty, not an expense threatening to make things possibly worse.
If you don’t address the economy, they think you’re out of touch with reality and assume you don’t realize that now is not the time for action. Deal with the issue up front and they have confidence that you have an idea of what they’re facing, and how to best deal with it.
I can tell you this: Most of you reading this are working programs requiring less upfront investment than mine. The business kit in my program is approximately US$1,000, and I also insist that they purchase some business tools raising that stake to about $1,500.
I always deal with the reason why it’s important for the prospect to invest in his future during times like these, and they always find a way. The truth is, if you show someone that they really can make the kind of incomes we have in this profession – they will always find the money. As my sponsor Eric Worre would say, it’s all about building trust, transferring belief.
We’ll look at some of the other objections in future posts. In the meantime remember the really good news: You get to choose whether to be the slum dog or the millionaire!

The Pyramid Objection
By Randy Gage - February 24th, 2009
Okay continuing with our series on handling objections, let’s deal with the pyramid one.Now I must say it seems shocking that this was even mentioned. Because I believe this has stopped being an issue some time ago. Let me tell you why I say that…
As most of you know, I got back in the biz as a distributor again over three years ago. And the first order of business was designing a presentation. So I did as I’ve always done in the past, and put in a section on the difference between a legitimate network marketing program and an illegal pyramid scheme.
And noticed that prospects seemed bored or even perplexed at that stage of the presentation…
So we took that section out. And enrollments actually went up. What happened?
The pyramid issue wasn’t an issue any more. Talking about it distracted from the natural flow of the presentation and the benefits of the business. With others, simply raising the subject probably seemed defensive and raised some doubts in their mind.
The reality is, our profession has really come into its own over the last ten years. We’ve become mainstream and the favorable press and public perception has followed.
So if you are getting this objection, the question to ask is, what are you doing to cause this? If you’re bringing it up in your presentation, drop it. If it’s not in your presentation and you’re still getting this, it means your presentation seems weak and uncertain. If this is the case, you need to be using 3rd party resources, so the opportunity is the focus, not you.
