The network marketing industry can be enormously rewarding, but it can also be very frustrating if you can't produce enough leads to build your business.
What are the two needs that we all share as network marketers? More money coming in, and more leads to talk to. Well, there are many free marketing techniques you can implement to get more prospects for your business.
However, you must be prepared to spend some time in order for these free techniques to work. As marketers, we need to understand that it takes either time or money to get prospects for our business. There are some great paid advertising techniques, but there are some great free strategies as well.
What Are Some Marketing strategies You Can Use To GetFree MLM Leads?
Article Marketing
You can write, right? One method that may be effective and keep brining results over the long-term is article marketing. These are three of the key points to consider when tackling this strategy.
1. What keywords will your article be targeting (what is your article going to be about)?
2. Where are you going to host your content?
3. How do you intend to distribute copies of your article all around the web?
Successful article marketing takes more than just putting up an article on a random topic and hoping for the best. Always have answers to the questions above to ensure you are getting the most out of the time you spend writing.
Video Marketing
This can be SUCH a powerful and effective way to market, but again, only if you know what you are doing. Most people think video marketing is making a handful of videos and putting them up on YouTube. If that's all you are doing, you're plainly not getting enough out of your video making efforts - and you are usually leaving a LOT of cash on the table!
Forum Marketing
Online forums are an outstanding place to develop prospects from one of the best niches available - other network marketers. It is very important though, that you do not join forums and just pitch your online business. That is the quickest way to ruin your reputation on that forum.
If you are going to make use of this marketing strategy, it is vital that you keep two or three things in mind:
1. Don't try and sell people on your business opportunity.
2. Take a moment to fill out whatever information you can in your profile. It helps people see you as an actual person, and as such believe you more.
3. Don't forget to upload an image.
4. Share your feelings and join the conversation.
5. Steer clear of posting links in the body of your post (unless that link is part of the point you're making). Affiliate/Capture page links ALWAYS go in your signature file.
6. Make sure you utilize your signature file to link to personally branded blogs or capture pages - people are on forums are generally interested in YOU, not your generic company page.
7. Be consistent and be patient.
8. Join forums that are active and get a good amount of traffic.
Social Media Marketing
When used properly, sites like Facebook, Twitter and other social media can be extremely powerful lead resources. Just like forums, don't make it a habit of pitching everyone you meet on your business. Establish relationships!
Imagine meeting someone for the very first time, and as soon as they've introduced themselves they start pushing some product or service on you. How likely do you think that you'd be to continue talking to that person, much less do business with them? I'm guessing the answer is not very likely at all.
This type of behavior doesn't work in face to face conversations, and it doesn't work in social media either. You've got to establish a relationship with people online by providing them with something valuable. Your friends will begin to view you as a leader and will search out whatever opportunity you have to offer when the time is right. Again: no links to generic company websites in your profile here!
These three tactics ought to be enough to get you started! Just bear in mind these important points:
1. Patience and consistent effort are the keys to success with these strategies.
2. Don't try to do them all at once. Pick one you are comfortable with, master it, and then move on to the next.
If you try to tackle them all at once, it will be overwhelming. It's better to devote more time to less tactics, than less time to more methods. Once you become proficient at each approach, you can add a new one into your marketing plan!
Okay...time to go get marketing! Good Luck :)
