Don’t Buy MLM Leads Until You Know This One Thing

Friday, November 5th, 2010

MLM leads must be the easiest leads in the world to generate.

When I did a Google search for the keyword phrase buy mlm leads it produced over 1.6 million results. And there are some really good deals out there too such as:

Buy MLM Leads

But that got me thinking. Why are mlm leads so popular and why do so many people buy them. Here are a few things I came up with.

1. MLM leads when used right can increase your mlm business.

2. You can give the mlm leads you buy to your downline to help them build their business.

3. You can sponsor a contest and give the winner more leads.

4. Buying mlm leads is cheaper than many forms of advertising such as classfied ads or flyers.

5. When you buy mlm leads you can begin contacting them the minute you get them.

6. The mlm leads you buy saves you the time it would take to generate them yourself

You could go on and on with this type of a list. Any mlm business is only going to be as good as the distributors in it and those prospects have to come from somewhere. Going out and handing out business cards in restaurants, or on the subway, or whereever you are is hard work and the average person is to reserved to do that anyway.

So that brings us back to the title of this article “Don’t Buy MLM Leads Until You Know This One Thing.” And that one thing is how are you going to work them? What is your strategy once you have the leads. Are you going to phone them, mail them, email them, drive over to their house, or what.

Without a doubt how to work your leads once you have bought them is the number one thing distributors fail at. And to be truthful not contacting your mlm leads at all is alot of the problem as well. In an mlm business it has been said the fortune is in the follow-up and in reality that is going to take some work on an ongoing basis. This is going to take a skill that you can learn over a period of time. The mlm company you are involved with will provide training to you as will most mlm lead generationcompanies.

So before your buy any mlm leads be sure you are comitted to working thru them over and over and you know why you are buying them to begin with. Be sure that you are willing to do this on a consistent basis for a long period of time. Buying mlm leads and then doing nothing with them is a waste of your money and you would be better off doing nothing at all.

How to create leads for your GRN business via voice broadcasting

Wednesday, November 3rd, 2010

The summer is just flying by. I have really struck gold with Ibuzz Pro. Not only for creating leads for my main business GRN, but for allowing me a second income stream where the sale is so simple. People watch the webinar for Ibuzz Pro and they quickly understand that it is a tool that all successful sales pros must have. The past week I have been averaging a sale a day part time with this. When you tell people you can create leads on demand, that you have a free Do Not Call list scrubber, and there are over 15 million leads to call in the back office you have an amazing product. I have cut down my lead generation costs by 60% using this software. I can contact the masses, thousands of people in an hour if I want. The cost of actually making the calls is SO much cheaper than using voiceshot or vontoo. It really is amazing.

The other day I did a small blast to real estate agents about 300 of them. It cost me 6 bucks to broadcast. I have made 2 sales off of it, 1000 in profits, one guy just signed up without even speaking with him. It is crazy how simple it is. A one exposure and then close. Unlike other big ticket programs where it takes 4-6 exposures to close. Ibuzz Pro and the 500 dollar software costs is also the perfect feeder program for those that cannot afford the 2k-6k it costs to join many high ticket items. People get started here save up some money and then can join that big program.

For those that have no money Ibuzz Pro has what we call Plan B. If you have serious pre existing contacts that could use this software to create sales you can refer that person in and that will count as your buy in (you still have to pay the small corporate back office fee) but the 500 is waived. The only problem with coming in this way is you have no real website to market with ( people use mine, or you have to have people attend a live webinar), plus you lose that person for good. But it is possible if you have relationship capital.

Again in my five years working from home I have never seen a lead generation tool so simple and effective to use. Since everyone is any sales business whether it be mlm, networking, cash gifting, direct sales, real estate , insurance, mortgage , need this tool our marketplace is endless. Of course I love mentoring my new people as the compensation plan makes it worth my time to help them make sales. Again Ibuzz Pro is a must have tool, and now I am realizing a truly simple 6 figure a year cash flow oppty. Check out the webinar on demand page also, it has increased sales by 300%. Here is to all of you having great success in 2008!

Commercial Mortgage Leads Can Improve Your Business

Sunday, September 19th, 2010

If you are a commercial mortgage broker and want to increase your sales to grow you business, consider purchasing some commercial mortgage leads to get you where you need to be. Have a verified lead can help you get the advance that you need.

When you go online you will see web banners and web pages that are advertising free online mortgage loan quotes. The people that respond to these free banners and sites then become a mortgage loan lead. All they need to do is fill out a small online form and submit it and the lenders will be contacting them.

The information that a potential customer has to fill out is very basic and will only provide contact information for the most part. The rest of the information will be provided directly to the person that calls them back to provide a sales pitch for a mortgage loan. Because the person that is interested in getting the loan is the one that is asking for a free estimate, this is considered a verified business lead.

After the information that is provided online is compiled, it is then sold to one or more mortgage companies as a business Lead. The fees for these leads can be large or small depending on how exclusive it is.

If you want to purchase commercial mortgage leads that will only be sold to you and no one else, an exclusive lead, you will be paying a larger fee for it. The smaller fees to get a mortgage lead only guarantees that you get the information, not that it will only be sold to you. As a matter of fact, if you do not pay for an exclusive lead, the same lead that you pay a small fee for will probably be sold to at least eight other mortgage companies and then it becomes a race.

With nonexclusive commercial mortgage leads comes the pressure of competition. You will sure to be racing against other companies to get in touch with the person that filled out the request first and to get your proposal to them before the others. If you would prefer not to have to rush to work on the lead, you should consider paying the extra money for the exclusive lead.

How Purchased MLM Business Opportunity Leads Work

Sunday, September 5th, 2010

Purchasing MLM business opportunity leads is a great strategy for some people to build their team. There is a right way and a wrong way to buy leads. Most distributors use the wrong way and then they wonder why they aren’t having success.

The first mistake distributors make is people who really have no need to buy leads are the ones buying them. The very best person to prospect for your opportunity is someone you already know. The second best person to prospect is a referral from someone you know. The third best person is a lead that you personally generate. Buying leads should only be done after the previous three options have been exhausted.

The problem with relying exclusively on purchased MLM business opportunity leads is that you will have to go through a lot of them to get a good result. This is because of the method that the lead vendors use to generate the lead. In order to keep the leads price competitively, the company advertises a generic business opportunity mostly on the internet. Some of them may also advertise on the radio, on television or in a magazine. The prospect fills out some basic information and the lead is then distributed to distributors that purchase them.

The problem with this approach is that the person filling out the lead form has no idea what they are going to be looking at. As a result, you have no way of knowing how truly interested that person is. They might just be curious to know what the opportunity is, but really have no interest in starting a business. In fact, the overwhelming majority of the leads that you purchase will be in this category.

When buying business opportunity leads, consider the lead type and quality. The lowest quality leads cost lower than the highest quality leads. However, just because the quality is higher that doesn’t mean that the results are going to be better. That is why it is important that you try different lead types out and track your activity so that you can see which lead type gives you the best results for your time, energy and money.

As an example, a lead company may offer phone interviewed leads for $3 a lead. A phone interviewed lead is a person in which the lead company has called them on the telephone and verified that the person is interested in starting a business opportunity. You receive the lead as soon as the interview is completed.

That same company may also offer local area code older leads for 75 cents a lead. These leads are up to 30 days old but they are all within a specific area code that you choose. You may think that the $3 leads are better than the 75 cent leads. However, if you actually brought them and called them, you might find that you get a much better result from the 75 cent leads than you get from the $3 one.

On the other hand, you could also find that even though the 75 cent leads give you a better result, the $3 leads give you a result that you are satisfied with with a significant reduction in the amount of time that you have to spend. If a batch of leads that cost $150 nets you 2 recruits, you would have to call 200 of the 75 cent leads to get 2 recruits. However, you would only have to call 50 of the $3 leads to get the same 2 recruits.

One of the best ways to find a good lead provider is to see who in your upline or specific company is using as their lead provider. Chances are if you have distributors who are having success in your particular business opportunity, the leads are worth working. Ask the lead vendor if they can have you speak to distributors who are using those leads that are in your network marketing company. Then, if your company has some type of recognition program that is easy to quality for if you are active, look to see if that distributor is a part of that program. If they are, you know that the leads are truly working for them.

Of course, you also want to make sure you have a legitimate need to work leads to begin with. Otherwise you are just wasting your money. If you still have 300 people in your warm market (which refers to your friends, family and neighbors) that you haven’t exposed to your business opportunity, you really have no need at all to buy leads. MLM Business Opportunity Leads are not an excuse to avoid talking to people that you don’t feel comfortable talking to. They should be used as a tool to supplement your other prospecting efforts.

Calls Those Mlm Leads!

Sunday, April 11th, 2010

Are you calling your MLM leads? If you’re going to see any success in your MLM business, then you have to frequently communicate with some of those leads you’ve generated. Part of this involves picking up the phone and calling some of them.

Failing to do this, then you’re just lying to yourself, and you might as well say bye to those big dreams—the exotic cars, the big house, the overseas trips and lots of money.

You see, in a typical 9 to 5 job it’s possible for you to just show up in the morning, then pretend to be working, and still earn your normal bi-weekly paychecks. Of course you also have to find ways to keep your idleness away from your boss. And you always can!

How about displaying a similar attitude in network marketing? Forget it. It just isn’t possible. I mean, yes, you can pretend to your upline leader that you’re prospecting hard, show up at weekly opportunity meetings and product launchings.

But in the end, really, it’s either you’re working your MLM business or you’re not. Your results will reveal all! And you’re the boss here.

Working an MLM business is all about the results we turn in. And we can’t fake any of it. So if you’re not determined to set to work and be consistent in doing so, probably you’re not cut out for a MLM business after all!

Rather than trying to lie to yourself, which you can’t, it just may be that a different occupation, say a salary job, might suit you better.

You know, running a MLM business is somewhat like trying to lose weight. What if the person wanting to lose weight is secretly cheating on his diet? Will there be any drop in his weight as time passes?

Well no! So a lack of commitment to the weight loss program will hurt none other than the person himself. So should he be surprised if months or years later his weight remains the same, or worse?

It’s the same in MLM. Despite the fact that you can’t fake certain things to yourself, a lot people still try to do so. They sit in their home offices and do everything else but call their leads.

But know that if you’re not talking to prospects on a regular basis and consistently recruiting new distributors into your MLM business, then there’s no way you’re going to be creating residual income. It’s that simple.

By this I mean you should prepare yourself on ways to respond or react to what a prospect might say. Specifically you should know how to react to a “no” response. Some marketers see it as a “failure verdict,” sort of a proof that they can’t do network marketing.

Those are the sort of feelings you are to guard against as you call your leads on the phone. Two authors, Richard Fenton and Andrea Waltz have a book titled “Go for No.” The book believes that getting as many No’s as possible is actually helpful in sales.

I encourage everyone involved in sales, especially network marketers, to read it. Other books that might help prepare you as you call your leads include “The Slight Edge” by Jeff Olson, and “Eat That Frog” by the master motivator himself, Brian Tracy.

Do not content yourself with hiding behind the computer and doing Facebook or writing a blog or two as your sole method of reaching out to prospects. Internet resources do have their place, and it’s primarily to generate leads for you.

But you should take it up from there. By all means pick up the phone and call those leads. Some are actually expecting your call!

As a network Marketing Business Builder being able to attract daily targeted MLM leads to your business is the key to your MLM Success. How would you like to attract 50-100 leads to your MLM business daily?

MonaVie Leads – Why Buy Expensive MonaVie Leads When You Can Generate Your Own?

Sunday, April 4th, 2010

Wouldn’t you love to have an unlimited supply of MonaVie leads to use in your prospecting pursuits?

If you’re like the vast majority of MonaVie distributors, you joined the business with grand designs for making a quick fortune, saying goodbye to your boss and living the life of your dreams.

After a few weeks of going to hotel meetings, opp nights, talking to a few of your friends and family, and experiencing massive rejection, reality sets in…hey, this is actually going to take some work!

Next, you hear that others are buying leads they can call to prospect. You begin to think about that and it sounds like a pretty good idea.

I’m not going to speak about the cost of these leads. I’m assuming you came into the MonaVie opportunity with the knowledge and the ability to put some money into your business. You must think of your business as a “real” business, which means there is investment required.

However, I’m going to let you in on a little known secret inside the network marketing industry.

The most effective way to build it big in MLM is to brand “you”. Too many people hype up their company or their upline. You’ve got understand that people want to join a team where they see an effective leader who can help them have success.

Your MonaVie leads and prospects don’t care about how great MonaVie or your upline is. All they are asking is whether or not you are the person that can help them build a massive downline.

I suggest you forget about buying MonaVie leads someone else has generated and begin creating your own leads. Not because of the cost, but because you must brand “you”.

There are countless ways you can generate your own MLM leads. You could start a blog where you give training and advice to those struggling in network marketing or those thinking about joining.

Over time, these people come to see that you are a leader with real world knowledge of how to win in multi-level marketing. As they opt in to your free trainings, you now have qualified leads to recruit into your business.

You can duplicate this process over and over with other methods, too.

You can create Google AdWords campaigns that send people over to your opt in trainings. You can post articles at the various article directories and generate free traffic back to your website that is branding you as the MLM expert. You can use social media, such as YouTube or Facebook to generate more free MonaVie leads.

There are literally hundreds of marketing methods you can use to market your MonaVie opportunity. I would suggest picking one or two at the beginning. Work those techniques until you’re a master at them. As dozens of leads begin rolling in each and every day, you are well on your way to building a massive network marketing dynasty.

Matt Zavadil can show you that once you start generating your own MonaVie Leads, success is yours.

3 Tips to Help You Find Quality Life Insurance Leads

Wednesday, March 17th, 2010

If you are a life insurance agent, then you no doubt already know that the hardest part of an agent’s job is getting business. Some agents rely on the tried and true method of cold calling. Others take advantage of newer approaches like online lead generation. The truth is, there are any number of ways to increase business and get new life insurance leads. You need only to take the time to find yourself some new life insurance leads.

Here are three ways many insurance agents get new leads and make more sales. Many agents rely on one or more of these methods. Some agents prefer one method over all others, while others use them all equally. Regardless of what you currently do, if you need to increase the number of leads you have, trying one of these approaches is sure to help.

The first method you should consider trying is to exhaust your personal network. Networking is essential in the sales industry, and life insurance sales is no different. Talk to your family and friends and see if they can refer anyone to you. Next, talk to your current clients and past clients to see if they could make any referrals. Not only does this increase your number of leads, but it could lead to more sales with your current clients. You may also want to consider sending out mailers to clients, although a personal phone call offers many more advantages.

Another method that is becoming quite popular, is to let someone else find the leads for you. Indeed, there are several companies that specialize in collecting life insurance leads. They collect these leads specifically to sell them to agents like you. They can provide you with as many leads as you would like, and generally the cost is very reasonable. If you need a boost of leads, this is perhaps the fastest and most effective way to get them. Some of these online lead providers even offer free life insurance leads for you to try out before you purchase any leads from them.

One of the oldest methods of insurance lead generation is cold calling. This is an essential skill that any agent should have. It is true that cold calling isn’t the most efficient means for finding leads, but it can be effective, especially if you are out of other ideas. The key to effective cold calling is to know what you are going to say ahead of time. Take the time to write out a script to help you when you make a call. You only have a few seconds to make a first impression and get a person’s attention, so make it count.

With these three methods you are sure to boost your number of life insurance leads in no time. You might find you like one approach more than the others. If this is the case, then stick with it! You’ll have all the business you can handle in no time

Mlm Lead Generation: Generate Targeted, Quality, Free Leads For Your Mlm/network Marketing Business

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

Are you purchasing leads for your MLM business opportunity? Really? Did you know you can generate leads online for free?

Buying leads for your MLM business gains you no value at all. When you burn through them you have learned nothing and you have gained no valuable skill sets. A lot of MLM businesses would like their new distributors to buy leads so that they can get comfortable about prospecting and overcome any fear they might have about speaking to “prospects” on the phone. This is not the path that any serious network marketing entrepreneur goes about building their business.

Why?

Because you experienced first hand if you have ever purchased MLM leads that 99% of them are “tire kickers” and they are not serious about looking into any form of entrepreneurial venture or building a home based business opportunity. Now think how that new team member views the network marketing/MLM industry in the very little time they has been involved.

They’ve called perhaps 100–200 leads and 99% of them are tire kickers and not serious at all about building a business. So they’re out a couple hundred dollars and they’ve learned absolutely nothing, they’ve depleted wasted time with a bunch of clowns on the telephone, and now they’re going to be told by their sponsor to do it all over again. Really?

It’s not a surprise why a large amount of networkers can’t fabricate an empire!

Buying MLM leads is a quick way to go broke, and a quick way to make your brand new group member give up because who wants to speak to dead­beats who are flat broke all day long?

When I am networking on a few of the social sites I ask people all the time how they are generating leads for their MLM business? A majority of them are like “What? How can I generate leads?”

There are SO MANY ways to generate leads online but to start with, you are going to need a lead generation system in place. The reason so many folks struggle in this business is because they don’t have a sales funnel in place and a system set up. After you have your system in place, you then have to recognize how to maneuver traffic to your site, capture your prospects information (in which they are giving you consent and wanting you to contact them), then CLOSE!

There are two words in network marketing. The important word being MARKETING! YOU HAVE TO LEARN MARKETING! REAL MARKETING methods that will draw go getters and real entrepreneurs so that you will have quality conversations with individuals who WANT to talk to you. Individuals who are open to the proposal of creating cashflow with their own home based business opportunity and who have the drive and aspiration to follow up and take action?

Suckers purchase MLM leads. Be a leader and study some new skill sets. Get your generation system set up. Then train your downline how to do the same. ATTRACTION MARKETING at it’s finest folks!

League Leads By Example

Monday, March 8th, 2010

The Football League has approved draft regulations governing agents and the transfer market. The league is unhappy with the existing Football Association and Fifa regulation of middlemen, particularly on the issue of “dual representation”. This practice, whereby agents can act for more than one party in a transfer, will be banned in transfers between Football League clubs under rule changes approved at a clubs’ meeting yesterday.

The chairmen also supported the drawing up of two “registers of members’ interests” in which any potential conflicts of interest involving club officials will have to be declared. These would include members of club officials’ families being involved or having any financial stake in agencies.

The league will also draw up a framework for the payment of agents, but the chairmen stopped short of prohibiting clubs from directly paying representatives. Some club chairmen favored a complete ban on what has become a common and costly practice, but they were in a minority. If players actually had to pay agents themselves the amount of money going out of the game might reduce rapidly, but some league chairmen were reluctant to surrender their right to make payments that are often the difference between signing a player and missing out.

The league chairman Lord Mawhinney said the regulations, which should be formally adopted at the summer AGM, enhanced the body’s reputation for transparency. “We have led the way on the governance agenda and this is a further step towards greater openness,” he said.

The chairmen were also informed that the highly respected Andy Williamson has been appointed the chief operating officer of the league after 35 years at the organization.

Cherie picks her mentor

Cherie Blair this week bestowed her considerable patronage on a commercial venture launched by one of the architects of London’s successful Olympic bid. On Wednesday night the PM’s wife attended the official launch party of Vero, the communications consultancy founded by Mike Lee, the former communications director of the bid. Describing Lee as her “mentor” Blair gave a glowing speech in praise of his new venture, which already counts the England and Wales Cricket Board and the International Rugby Board among its clients. Shrewdly Lee has formed a partnership with the creative marketing house Live, the firm that produced much of London 2012’s promotional material. Whereas Lee can count on impeccable new Labour contacts, the Live chairman Michael Lockett was heavily involved in David Cameron’s campaign for the Tory leadership.

Changing the guard

England’s cricketers and 14-strong team of support staff are under the protection of three full-time security guards in India, but there are suspicions that the boys from Olive Security are under-employed. Since arriving in Nagpur the trio have been spotted bowling in the nets and helping out with the ice buckets in the changing room.

Big Sam saved by the bell

Sam Allardyce was saved from a grilling by MPs over his chances of landing the England job by the division bell during the All Party Football Group’s annual dinner at the House of Lords on Tuesday evening. The Bolton manager addressed MPs on the issue of home-grown players, but before questions turned to Sven-Goran Eriksson’s successor the assembled were called to the lobbies.

Public image problems

The PR firm Hill & Knowlton has won the dubious honor of handling media relations for the Beijing Olympic organizing committee. The account will attract considerable flak before 2008 but H&K has experience of Olympic crises, notably when it tackled the fallout from the Salt Lake City bribery scandal. H&K’s victory in a process that began in May 2005 has caused some disquiet among competing agencies who suspect senior International Olympic Committee members had a hand in the decision, but the IOC insists the appointment was a matter for the Beijing committee.

How Can I Generate My Own New Car Sales Leads?

Saturday, February 20th, 2010

Just started a new job at a popular dealership. Wanted to know how I could possibly generate my own car sales leads.


Write a letter to everyone and anyone you know. Just let them know you started at the dealership and if you can be of any help call. Once they know they will tell their friends if a conversation about new cars comes up.
Next, be on the lot at all times, I have seen so many people waiting at their desk for someone to come to them, if you are on the lot you can approach people as soon as they start looking.
Take some of your business cards and post them around on area bullitien boards, usually the grocery stores, corner stores, pizza places etc. have them.
If you have a little extra money for about $50.00 – $100.00 per month you can advertise on the placemats in diner or local resturants as well as the local auto trader.
Hope this helps.
