3 Key Skills Required to Running a Successful Internet MLM Business

October 29, 2008 at 7:29 am · Filed under Running

An internet mlm business is very different from an offline business. Your promotions if done well would mean that you only need to work entirely online. This means no more calling on the phone if you do not want to. This article identifies internet mlm success as personified in three qualities that any internet mlm business owner must have.

Internet savvy basics

This is a basic skill needed to run an internet mlm business. I do not mean you need to be able to program or anything like that but a good internet mlm business owner must be conversant at least to be able to amend simple html code on his website. You should spend time reading up on the latest marketing and Search Engine optimization techniques online. You also must be able to answer emails online as a minimum as the downlines that you hope to attract must also be somewhat internet savvy otherwise it would not have been possible for them to signup with your internet mlm business.

Existing system to follow up on leads

Many people get signups to their internet mlm business opportunity online but the problem is that there is no followup system to work with your leads. Most people only make a purchase when they see an offer seven times. Thus in this case your followup system should have an autoresponder so that your offer can be sent to your potential customer’s email inbox more than once. You also get to build a loyal list where you can introduce other business ideas to them as you start making money in one internet mlm business.

Article writing or the willingness to learn
The best way to make money with home business and to promote an internet mlm business is to write articles and submit them. Doing so will yield two benefits. You will learn all you can about doing well in an internet mlm business and improve your personal knowledge and in addition you will be seen as an expert in the area of internet mlm business. Submitting articles represents one of the best free publicity any aspiring mlm business owner could use. The signature line in your article will bring you much needed website traffic and help you generate more internet mlm leads.

In conclusion, the three minimum requirements to making money online include as a minimum being internet savvy, a followup system for your leads and also a willingness to learn how to write and publish internet mlm articles. By doing all three steps on a consistent basis, you will start seeing some internet mlm success in any business that you start.

Develop Alliances and Achieve More

October 28, 2008 at 2:11 am · Filed under Running

The curse of the small business owner and consultant: the “Lone Ranger Syndrome”. This affliction causes struggles and limits growth and opportunity simply because of a need to “go it alone”.

So what can you do to rid yourself of this affliction? Well one way is to develop joint ventures or alliances and by that I mean…

“A partnership/partnerships that create or add value to the vision and goals of all parties that also adds or creates value for their current or potential customers. The value created would not have been possible if either party had solely operated on their own.”

Wars have been won and lost by the strength of alliances. Communities have grown or perished through the collaboration of neighbourhoods. People have used the concept of many can offer more than one for a variety of different means for a long time. In today’s business environment alliances of all shapes and sizes are everywhere.

In a report by Atos Origin in May of this year they said

“After years of transformation in consolidation, globalisation and outsourcing, companies who create, manufacture, distribute & retail consumer products need to unearth a new way to improve their businesses. …new forms of collaboration between these companies can achieve greater product innovation and consumer intimacy, leading to competitive advantage for the future. … collaboration across the value chain, from R&D through to manufacturing, distribution and information technology, as a path to top-line revenue growth and higher profit margins,…”

2 main reasons why you would consider an alliance of some kind are Leverage and Profit and there are 6 key areas where this can apply.

Talent - Businesses only succeed through their people. This applies equally whether you are a one person company or a global organisation. People make businesses what they are. Therefore to be able to leverage talent is critical.

Knowledge - Information is held within the brains of people and spread across companies in many shapes and forms. Documents, processes, research methods and online. If that information is to serve a valuable purpose it needs to be leveraged. It then becomes knowledge that is useful and applicable in many situations.

Capacity - This is an area that many SMEs struggle with when they are looking to grow. Capacity in many formats can be a limiter to growth and is therefore a key area for an alliance.

Access - Expansion into new markets using different channels giving access to new clients is one strategy for growth and partnering with someone to gain this access can be one way to leverage a partnership.

Resources - Access to money and equipment for expansion or development are another area where a partnership can be beneficial.

Future Fun - The value of simply getting together with a few people to share ideas, think through new opportunities and to exchange knowledge and experiences is often overlooked and yet can add real business and personal value especially if you work for your self - it can also be a sanity check!

So where can you see opportunities for leverage in your business?

And

Who could you be looking for to create a future alliance for future increased profit?

Running Man

Yeah, that’s right. I’m throwing my hat in the ring.

And because I have no political acumen, I’m going to tell you right now exactly what I believe and what I’ll do once elected.

Disease Research

From bird flu to disco fever, it’s time to find cures for the epidemics that threaten to wipe us out. We do this by better using our country’s intellectual capital, for example, taking the R&D team that brought us the automatic feed paper towel dispenser at restaurants and repurposing them. We pull them aside and simply say ‘fellas, congratulations. You have reached the zenith in the field of public restroom paper towel distribution. Now your country needs you for another important task.’

Border Security

I have a solution that will hermetically seal our Mexican border for mere pennies. We simply take the material they use to seal new DVDs and CDs and wrap that stuff across the border, from Tijuana to Brownsville. As you well know, it’s absolutely impossible to get into. Problem solved.

Humanitarian Aid

I believe third world countries are held down, not by lack of international compassion or generosity, but by corruption within their governments. That’s why my blueprint for relief goes like this: a meal for every child, a house for every family, and a bullet for every despot. Seriously, the bullet part will only cost a few cents. For the cost-to-benefit ratio, it can’t be beat.

Terror

There is a real evil at work in our world today. These sub-humans take what little power they have and leverage it to instill fear and inflict suffering on honest, hardworking Americans.

But enough about homeowners’ associations.

When it comes to terrorists, I firmly support using torture to extract vital information. We start simple, then slowly work our way up as needed to the more brutal torture techniques like ‘Spin The Bottle with Rosie O’Donnell.’

Patriotism

Under my administration, in addition to our pledge of allegiance, we will adopt a national gang sign. There’s nothing like throwing up a gang sign to one of your homies as you pass, maybe tossing in a little upward head nod as if to say ‘Wassup, playa.’ Now every citizen will be able to enjoy this instant connection and camaraderie.

Minorities

Now, you might be thinking ‘Matthew, you’re a quasi-middle class white male. What can you know of the plight of minorities?’ My friends, I was a virgin until my wedding day, so I know full well about the hardships of growing up as a minority.

So on Election Day, when you step into the booth, I want you to look at your ballot. You read those names, and you find the one that, in your heart of hearts, you know can truly effect positive change for our country. Then, just below that candidate’s name, write in ‘Matthew Porter.’

Goodnight, and may God bless America.
