In the next few minutes,  Brock Blohm will be showing you how to be successful and the blog will answer all the questions going on in your mind 

Hey there! The system detects that this may be your first time here. Cool! If you have any questions: I'm here to help!

Key To Multi Level Marketing Success

You want to learn how to be successful in multi level marketing? Awesome! I want to help you. To be successful in this industry, you must learn quite a bit. You must learn your company, you must learn your market, you must learn how to market to them, and you must grow in to a well-rounded person through personal development. This is not an overnight success in general, though it has happened to some. Below, I would like to list the thoughts and concepts that you should have in mind in order to create success within your multi level marketing opportunity.

Successful In Multi Level Marketing – Right Company

When you know what you are doing, you can be successful in almost any company out there. Most of your success will come down to you, as an individual – and what you are capable of doing. But what you must realize is that your company is as strong as its weakest link – and I’m not talking about the distributors. There are may factors that contribute to making a ‘great company’. If you are in the process of choosing a company or think you may have partnered with the wrong company, you should learn what these factors are. This is step #1 to your success – if this is skipped, say goodbye to your long-term success.

 Successful In Multi Level Marketing – Join A Leader

When partnering with the company that has your interest – you can literally partner with anybody that is already part of the company. You must join through a preexisting member. But choose wisely. The majority of people in any network marketing opportunity don’t know how to make it work – that’s just fact. You can either join a leader, someone who is already succeeding, and knows how to make it work – guiding you to the success you are looking for at no additional cost. Or, you can join just anybody. Sure, your company products will be shipped to you no matter who you join, but the difference is training and motivation. They will help you get to where you are looking to go! If you haven’t already, be sure to read this article about an MLM Coach.

 Successful In Multi Level Marketing – Recruit Friends & Family

As long as you aren’t partnered with an ‘adult opportunity’, then I highly recommend sharing it with your friends and family. Not to say that you can’t share adult material with your close ones – just be selective – you don’t want to offend anyone. I always recommend sharing your opportunity with all of your friends, family, and every single person that you know. This will obviously increase your chases of success. But understand that friends and family are in a different category than the rest of the world. You need to know how to approach them in a certain way. Remember, friend are always more important than business.

“The greatest leader is the one who sponsors the most leaders…”

 Successful In Multi Level Marketing – Generating Leads

You will go on to share this with all of your friends and family. Some will join. Some will not. When you have gone through your list, then what? You must be generating more leads – people to talk to. You must constantly be on a mission to share this with more people. In order to be able to share it with more people, you must find people to share it with – or generate a lead as some of us call it. You need to be a master at generating more leads.  

Successful In Multi Level Marketing – Build/Maintain Your Downline

Once you have started to place people in your business and have people on your team, it is now time to help them. Their success is your success. You help enough people get what they want, and you will, in turn, get what you want. You need to be an active leader. Someone who takes control and connects with their downline. Someone who helps to guide them and steer them in the right direction. You need share with them the exact tips and techniques that I listed above. Why? Because a team with knowledge is a team of success. You want them to know everything about the company and the industry, and be confident when they are out sharing this with others. Leadership is critical.  Here you will learn just how to help grow your organization through others.

 Successful In Multi Level Marketing – Personal Development

There is no ‘order’ for this topic. Personal development is something that is learned over time. It is one of the most critical pieces of your business. You must learn how to listen. You must learn how to communicate. And you must learn how to learn! I once read an article that stated that around 90%+ contribute their success, not to college, but simply personal development. Learn how to become the person that you would like to become. Simple as that. Read, learn, grow!

“Keep applying the same old network marketing strategies, and keep getting what you’ve always gotten…”

How to Make Money With Twitter Quickly

If you thought using Twitter was only for social networking, think again. People are starting to tap in to the concept of making money with their Twitter website. You can make money with Twitter, but there are certain things you have to do in order to make a profit.

Of course, you must have a Twitter account in order to make money with Twitter. Signing up for a Twitter account does not cost you anything. When you get your Twitter site set up, you will want to start posting tweets to your site. Posting tweets will help you get followers. When followers tweet posts to you, you should respond in kind.

It is not necessary to have a gigantic following in order to make money with Twitter. It's better to have followers that have the same interests than hundreds of followers that are not interested in cultivating a relationship with you on your Twitter site.

You don't want to be too quick about promoting things in the very beginning. It's better to get to know the followers on your site. You should want to establish a trust with them. They should also want to establish a trust with you. When it's time for you to make money with Twitter, it will be easier for you because the relationship has been established.

When you are ready to make money with Twitter, don't blatantly promote your products or services. Some people could think that you are trying to spam them. It's not a good idea to mention your product to your followers every time you send a tweet.

However, when the time is right, here are some ways that you can make money with Twitter:

o Product recommendation - You could write a recommendation of a product to your followers. Encourage them to check it out and take action. It's a good idea if you actually tried out the product yourself before you recommend it to them. It will make you the expert on it, and they will be more inclined to purchase.

o Affiliate marketing - If you are recommending a product on behalf of someone else, you can place your affiliate link in your tweet post.

o Your product - You can promote your own product and sell it from your sales page.

Any of these ideas are ways that you can make money from Twitter. The key to doing it is not to constantly throw it in their face every time you tweet. Your followers will be turned off because they will start thinking that your main motive for being on Twitter is to sell your product. The easier way to lead up to this is to provide quality and meaningful content to your followers.

Four Ways to Build a List with No Money

You’ve heard it before – if you want to succeed online you must have a list of your own.

Every guru says it. Ever wonder why?

Because it’s true!

With a list of your own you can advertise anything you want any time you want as often as you want … all FREE!

There is no more powerful weapon in any marketing arsenal than a well-developed mailing list.

And email marketing is by far the most powerful form of marketing online. It’s been proven again and again.

With a list you have marketing power and can even participate in joint ventures.

Without a list you have to buy advertising or do other forms of free marketing to get the word out.

Those work, and they work well, but they are much harder. So why not take the easy route?

The reason for list building is economic, plain and simple. If you want a real freedom the best way is to have a list of your own. In 2006 I made a full time living with a mailing list of only 12,000 people. This can be done!

You can do it too!

There is no doubt that the single most valuable asset I own online – more valuable even than owning the Directory of Ezines - are my mailing lists.

With them I can build, or rebuild, a business. Without them I’m back at square one.

But what if you have a list yet?

First things first – everyone who has a list now was in your shoes at one point.We all started with zero subscribers and had to learn the fine art of list building.

The good news here is that it’s not as hard as you think if you are willing to usethe “slow and steady” approach instead of they hyped up “go from 0 to 100,000 in 90 days” approach.

One word about “slow and steady”. While I am not advocating taking any longer than needed to build your list I am saying that putting time on your side matters … a lot.

Think about how long you have been trying to make money online. Now thing about this – what if you had added only 200 people a week to your list every week of that time? How many people would be on your list today?

For many the answer is thousands and thousands.

There are many ways to begin building your list – too many to cover here. So today let’s look at four free ways that really work. 

Full disclosure: I used each of these when starting to build my list and still use each one of them today. They work!

Here are four simple ideas you can use today to start building a list of your own even if you don’t have any money to spend, a website of your own or any traffic!

But first, what do you need to get started?

It goes without saying that you will need a landing page and an autoresponder before you begin building a list of your own. You will also need messages to send to your new list.

These things are much easier than they used to be and both are covered in other articles on this blog.

Suffice to say that if you have Aweber you are good to go from a technology standpoint.

With Aweber you can build unlimited lists and they will even host a basic lead capture page for you free. 

Many people don’t know that Aweber will host your form for you but they will. This means you do NOT need a landing page other than the one they provide if you do it right. What they provide is basic, but it works and is included in your service so there is no cost.

That makes life so much easier!

Now to the four ideas for today. These tactics work for me and have for years. I hope they will work for you too.

Idea 1 – Your Email Signature Line

Go to your “sent email” folder right now and just scan the email you sent in the last month. If you are like most of us its hundreds of emails. Maybe thousands.

But does your email does include an offer for someone to join your mailing list?

It should!

Here’s why …

If you send only 20 emails a day (including replies) then you are sending over seven thousand emails a year!

What if only 1 in 7 people saw your link and joined your list?

That’s over 1000 subscribers to your list … free!

You may be thinking that many of the emails you send are to friends and family. Or that you send many emails to the same person. I thought that too.

But one thing to consider is this – if you add an offer to join your list to your signature those who are interested will take it up and those who are not will ignore it. This is perfect because people are self-selecting, which is the essence of permission-based marketing. 

You will find, as I did, that people will occasionally forward your email as well. When that happens an entirely new audience gets to see your list building offer. It’s a win-win.

And it costs nothing!

Idea 2 – Forums and Blogs

Ever visit a forum and ask a question? How about making comments on the blogs you follow and love?

Many people have done one or both but don’t leverage the experience in their favor.

Just about every forum out there offers a signature line feature, yet we see thousands of posts with no signature.

Almost all blogs encourage you to enter a URL when you comment but many comments contain no URL at all, when they could easily include the URL of your squeeze page or Aweber hosted form.

Don’t make this mistake!

If you post on the Warrior Forum or Michael Green’s How To Forum or any other, make sure to include a link where people can join your list.

The same thing goes for commenting on your favorite blog like Copyblogger orChris Brogan’s blog.

Again, free and very effective. Put time on your side with this one!

Idea 3 – Twitter

Ah, Twitter – friend or foe? Great marketing tool or total time waster?

Great marketing tool!

Here’s how you can use Twitter today to begin building your list with no money. 

Start following people you know of and replying to their Tweets.

Make sure your reply makes sense and won’t waste people’s time.

Post fan Tweets – replying to a Tweet with something like “loved your book about ___” are 100% okay and often much appreciated.

Once you have been following for a while you will get followers too, and become a recognizable name in your circles.

When that happens, send a short Tweet about your new mailing list and where people can join it.

If you want you can even automate this process by using a service likeHootsuite or a software like TweetAdder.

The key here is to create curiosity which creates the click and that leads new visitors to your squeeze page.

And it can all be automated! 

Of course you can use other social media to accomplish this as well. Other articles will cover those methods. But I find that Twitter is the easiest way to start for someone just starting out, hence the specific suggestion here.

Idea 4 – Your Blog

If you don’t have a website you might be thinking “sounds good Charlie but where do I send them to sign up?”

Fair question.

The best answer is your blog.

If you don’t have a blog there is simply no reason to wait any longer. Go to Blogger.com and get one now. It’s free, they have templates you can use that look professional.

If you don’t like Blogger you can use a service like TypePad to host your blog.

Another option, if you have hosting, is to use an excellent theme from Studio Press (that’s what I do) or use Optimize Press or the Socrates Theme. The last two are highly optimized for online marketers.

The advantage of having a blog is that you can use it as a landing page only OR publish a full-on blog and build your audience even faster. 

Options are a beautiful thing! With one hosting account you can have an almost limitless number of blogs in various niches. You can create virtually any number of squeeze pages too.

If you can type, you can blog. And you should. Once you get a blog just put a form on it for your list and you are good to go!

So there you have it, four ways to begin building a real list of your own with no money and no traffic!

1. Your email signature line
2. Forums and blogs
3. Twitter
4. Your own blog

Begin using these methods today and you will put time on your side. Sooner than you think, you will have a mailing list of your own.

Once you have a list of your own the possibilities become endless. You can take polls to uncover needs, offer recommendations, warn them of online scams and so much more. All free!

And having a powerful mailing list is a beautiful thing indeed!
