The Network Marketing Business Journal, the international publication for network and multi-level marketing, is published by Money Maker's Monthly and you can access a free online copy here http://www.nmbj.com if you want to check it out for yourself.
The journal is targeting anyone interested in income opportunites, home-based businesses, direct sales, vendors, suppliers and consulting.
I'd like to give you a quick review so you can decide whether or not you'd like to subscribe (1-year subscription - 12 issues - costs $15.00).
The Network Marketing Business Journal has several regular features:
1) The MLM Industry News and Updates. For any online network marketer, news that pertains to the industry is very important. Why? Because you can leverage off of it to create content that people are interested in. If you create interesting content about the industry news, you will get traffic to this content and this traffic converts to leads and customers for your business.
One major news item in the lastest issue that affects anyone in the network marketing industry is that the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is now debating whether or not they will be requiring every network marketer in America to disclose to every prospective distributor the names and addresses of existing distributors, an economic analysis of likely financial returns from the opportunity, and the names and addresses of those who sought refund of their investment for the opportunity, among other requirements. There seems to be somewhat of an uproar by network marketers towards the FTC about this and you can read more about it in the latest issue.
2) The New Kid on the Block. This section features a new network marketing company. Many people like new companies because there is the (false) impression that you can earn more if you get started with a company that's just starting out.
3) The Publisher's Perspective: Dr. Keith B. Laggos is the publisher of the Network Marketing Business Journal and he airs his viewpoint about a certain topic in each issue. This in itself is very valuable information. Dr. Laggos has been involved in direct sales for 36-years and discusses hot industry topics.
4) The Legal Section: This offers help about legal issues such as how to distinguish between illegal ponzi schemes and legal network marketing, mlm or multi-level marketing companies.
5) This journal also hosts its fair share of advertisements. In fact, a great deal of the magazine is made up of advertisements. If you are more interested in content, you could argue that there is too much advertising but it's worth checking out the magazine's media pack and ad reach statistics if you have some money to invest in advertising.
If for nothing else, I would recommend the Network Marketing Business Journal just because of the network marketing-relevant news and updates - great resources to keep abreast of what is going on in the network marketing industry.
