MLM Marketing is a marketing structure that is used by some companies. The structure is designed to create a marketing and sales force by paying promoters for both the sales of the companies products they make and for new distributors they bring into the business that will go on to promote the companies product as well.

Anyone who joins the MLM business and promotes the product is known as a distributor, they do not earn a salary but instead they are awarded a commission dependant on how many sales they make themselves and the sales of their down line. The process is similar to a franchise.

A downline is the people that have bought into the company via you. You will get paid for them joining and earn a percentage of any future sales they make.

So here’s a few examples of MLM businesses; Quick and easy to get set up, Can start straight away if you like, if you join near the top of the MLM business line you can stand to make a lot of money by building a large downline and earning lots of commissions.

Here are the Disadvantages of MLM; Methods of selling are outdated, this is because most MLM models encourage you to sell to your firends and family, pick up the phone and tell people about your product. These aren’t exactly cutting edge and many people will not be interested in sales calls! Another disadvantage is if you join near the bottom of the line most of the market will be saturated and you’re competing with experienced marketers. Now you will not be able to compete with these as nearly all MLM’s do not provide training on Internet Marketing.

So overall I think MLM’s are outdated as the marketing techniques they teach are no longer effective. Nearly every MLM will not provide you with the real training you need on Internet Marketing if you are to make money online and set up a successful home business.

Now there of course there are people making money from MLM’s and I’m not by any means trying to say they cannot make you money, but there is a very high failure rate as there’s a lack of training and support!

One of the main reasons people join an MLM is because of the lifestyle that is portrayed however at the beginning you will spend most of your time calling people on the phone and more often than not getting negative responses. This doesn’t sound like fun to me!

However if you still think MLM is the way to go make sure you join near the top of a line otherwise the market will be saturated and you will most likely not make many sales.

Cash Gifting is the weirdest and most stupid thing I have seen become popular on the Internet. The whole system is flawed.

So the idea behind cash gifting is that by giving money to each other some how we end up with more than we started, ermm well that doesn’t make sense! If everybody is giving everybody else the same amount then we’d end up with the same amount! That’s correct but isn’t what happens, what does happen is the “founder” of the company (that will be around no longer than a couple of months) starts the idea so more and more people give them the cash and he creates a downline. And in order for the downline to sell the “opportunity” they learn basic skills on getting traffic on the Internet.

What happens then is that the business will run out of money, this is because only so many people will believe in the idea of cash gifting. So then what happens to the people that join near the bottom of the downline, well they never make their money back! If you do not believe me go to YouTube and you will see loads of videos from people that have lost their money with these cash gifting scams.

If you really want to drive traffic to a site you can buy an ebook on how to for around 40, seems a lot cheaper than $10,000 to me! However this time you actually have a product on the website that will benefit someone rather than a false opportunity.

Here’s another flaw in the system, why do you have to send cash? Wouldn’t a cheque make sense because if for whatever reason the package goes missing you can always cancel it.

What if your “sponsor” says the next day that the package didn’t have any money in it!? There’s no proof it was, so it would be your word against theirs. Fed Ex do not provide compensation for actual money so you will be in a tricky situation!

So Cash Gifting is good for people that set up the “business” or are at the top of the downline as they can make (receive) a lot of money from people that are looking for a way to earn more money themselves!

On the other hand nearly all people will pay their money and never receive anything in return! Please make sure you are not oen of those people! I have read a couple of peoples articles promoting cash gifting where they say you do not have to do a lot of work or have knowledge to receive a cash gift! So what does that mean you just sit around and a package comes to your door with thousands of dollars in it!?

I want to make it clear, cash gifting is NOT a business opportunity!

One of the major factors in becoming a successful home business owner is to surround yourself with other like minded individuals that share the same ambitions and goals. You want to be part of a team that is willing to help you and share their knowledge. Then in return you too can do the same for them.

In the Internet Marketing Industry this is especially important as no one person can know it all…fact! There is just far too many techniques and information to know as well as the fact that the internet is developing each day. By becoming part of a supporting team you can share your knowledge and this will enable you to develop skills quicker rather than trawling through loads of articles,videos etc to only learn one or two key points!

Here’s an example of how teamwork can really progress your business far quicker than going it alone; you’re trying to use as many ways to promote your business/product as possible but there’s one problem…you are hopeless at article writing, now without a team you will either spend hours with writers block struggling and may have to miss out article marketing all together. However within a team you can ask and find people that are really good at article marketing, they could then teach you techniques on how to write articles effectively or maybe even write some articles for you and in return you can help them out on another Internet Marketing technique you’re particularly strong on such as Pay Per Click Advertising etc.

You can set up your team members social networking sites and show them how to target people that will be interested in their product and they in return can write you 10 articles. There you have it, rather than spending hours and hours struggling to write articles when you are not comfortable doing so your team member is writing high quality articles for you! How beneficial is that!

I would of not had such a successful Internet Marketing business so soon if it were not for my mentor and team members sharing tips and information with me! Every successful Internet Marketer you see out there such as Frank Kern would of had to learn from somebody before they became a success too!

Now I myself mentor others on the art of Internet Marketing and there are many other mentors out there too! By having a team around your ideas can be bounced off each other and 2 heads are better than 1, especially if those 2 heads are in fact 50! Teams allow people with ranging experience levels in Internet Marketing to connect which is especially helpful for newbies as they are getting first class knowledge from experienced Internet Marketers who have been there, done that and got the T-shirt!

So after you have seen a business you are interested in, make sure you research other members of the team and that there is a healthy amount of support around.

If you see a potential mentor that is very successful in Internet Marketing then great but do not rush into things, do your research. Just because the guy has made a lot of money himself and drives a Porsche does not mean he will be the best mentor as he may be too busy making himself money to give you the time and support you need. Make sure there will be plenty of support!

A lack of support from a mentor or no team is the key reason why so many people fail in the Internet Marketing Indsutry! They buy into an opportunity because of the claims of wealth an Internet Marketing business can bring but then never receive any support; they then fail to progress their business and therefore lose belief and eventually give up!

Unfortunately there are some pathetic people out there that sell hype products that are a waste of time, but for the majority that fail it’s down to themselves and not the product/opportunity. If they had the support they would have been more motivated and spurred on, therefore they would have stuck at it and inevitably made money online with Internet Marketing.

Video marketing is one of the most popular Internet Marketing techniques and has become massively popular within the past couple of years. This is mainly down to the surge of videos appearing on the internet (YouTube).

The main reason it is so popular and profitable is because it is the next best thing to meeting your prospect/viewer face to face. Video enables you to connect to people all around the world and is a great way to build relationships.

You HAVE to be yourself when you are making a video. Do not “act” by pretending to be somebody you’re not, this “act” will eventually drop and people will notice. Of course take pride in your appearance but if you normally wear casual clothes don’t shoot a video in a suit etc. People will warm to the fact that you are an actual human being with a genuine product/business opportuity rather than some robot spammer! Add personal stories so people can relate to you as well, they are more than likely in the position you were before you started Internet Marketing so want to hear your story; it will inspire them and they’ll want to hear more from you!

Picture the viewer you are sending the message in your video to and keep eye contact with the camera constantly, do not look around or at the floor. Think about what the viewer is likely to be feeling when they watch your video and try to connect with them on some level.

A really important thing to remember when on camera is to have presence, deliver your message with knowledge and power. People are looking for leaders, they want to look up to you so be confident and provide the viewer with great content about your business. This will make you look knowledgeable and give you authority which is a major factor in why people will buy from you.

Give somebody a call to action at the end of your video; this could point them in the direction of your website or contact details. If you have delivered a great video with a great message most people will want to get in contact or hear more from you so make it easy for them.

So the main things to consider when video marketing are: Be yourself, Connect with the viewer, Have authority/presence, Give good content and have a call to action and the end of your video so you can build you list.

If you do this people are more than likely to see you as a leader, they’ll then join your list and inevitably go into business or buy from you. This is simple but I see so many Internet Marketers out there that do not execute these techniques; make sure you do and you can use video marketing to your advantage.

This article came from the laptop of Jonathan Pitts, one of the best rated and most influencial Internet Marketing Mentors out there. He teaches people both the art of attraction marketing and the proven Internet Marketing strategies he has used to become a successful entrepreneur. His aim is to give real value to anyone that is considering joining the Internet Marketing industry so has created a Truth Report.

If you want to build a list and become successful at Internet Marketing you have to give valuable information. Otherwise why would anyone join your list in order to hear more from you.

Providing others with valuable information gives you status, this is because other will look up to yu as a leader. After that they will want to hear more so join your list.

You could know all the Internet Marketing techniques in the world but unless you provide people with valuable information it is useless. Do not just bang on about your product and how good it is; instead brand yourself and help people.

Unfortunately nowadays there are so many people/businesses that simply spam and try to con people out of their money! This has caused nearly everyone being sceptical when it comes to buying into business opportunities or products over the internet.

This can make the process of letting people know that we (I and you) have a legitimate product/business opportunity harder.

Although there is an advantage to this; you can stand out from the crowd of hypesters by providing valuable knowledge that will help a person. For example if a person were to look into Internet Marketing they would see the business I am involved with and most likely view my competitors. Now if I were to brand myself and help the viewer out by giving them free, valuable information they would prefer me over my competitor who is only banging on about how much money you can make etc etc.

Give helpful information and brad yourself, it really will make you stand out from the crowd. People buy from people, not some automated marketing system!

This may sound incredibly easy but it really works! I bought into my first Internet Marketing business because of my mentor, it didn’t matter what business he was a part of I wanted to join him and him only in business!

So now you know how to dominate the competition by doing the exact opposite of them. Brand yourself and give valuable information.

You see the more people you help the more you get in return, if someone had said that to me at when I first started internet marketing I probably would not of believed them but now I know it is 100% fact! You don’t have to take my word for it…. You can have EVERYTHING in life you want, if you will just HELP others get what THEY want. – Zig Ziglar

If you want to become successful at Internet Marketing and make serious money online you have to find a way of driving targeted traffic to your website.

So this brings me on to Pay Per Click advertising which is one of the most popular methods to drive targeted traffic to your website. In this article I am going to give a simple breakdown of exactly what it is and some useful tips to make sure you don’t end up wasting your marketing budget.

A Pay Per Click (PPC for short) campaign is where you pay a certain amount of money every time someone clicks on your adverts. There are a number of types of PPC adverts but the most common are the links (normally on the right hand side) of search engine results. For example every time you do a Google search you will see adverts on the right hand side, these are Pay Per Click adverts.

Pay Per Click ad campaigns can be very cost effective; this is because you only pay when your ad is clicked on, this means if a person has clicked on your ad they must be interested in your offer. Therefore only targeted traffic should click on your ad; but say you do get your market terribly wrong it doesn’t have to cost you a bomb because people that are not interested in your offer will not likely click on your ad so you will not spend any money.

However as with anything there is a “but”. This is because you can stand to spend more money than you make with Pay Per Click advertising; this normally happens if you target a large niche such as Home Business or Internet Marketing. If you do your click rate will become higher ($2-4 a click) as there’s a lot of competition. Therefore if your site is not a high converting one you will be charged for viewers visiting your site but then you will not get anything in return because they do not submit their details meaning you will not build a list and not make much money.

When running PPC adverts you will need to increase the effectiveness of your ads. The best method of doing this is creating a number of different ads and run them alongside each other (split testing). Then you can analyse each site and see which of the two was the highest converting, in future you will want to use the higher converting site.

Here are a number of different elements you can change around to enable you to find out which layout/desgin works best, this gives you a high converting site. Change the headline of your advert and site by making one positive and the other negative. For example; “Make Tonnes Of Money Here For Free” which is a positive headline or use “Don’t Be A Sucker And Go Anywhere Else For Internet Marketing Techniques” which is a negative headline. You can also consider changing the layout of your site, changing the style and size of font, length of text, with or without video and picture etc.

When you have found out which ads are the worst converting discard them and stick with the one you know is/are the highest converting. This will make your PPC ads cost effective as a large percentage of people that click on your ad will submit their details to you. This will build your list and inevitably make you money if you advertise to your list effectively. Keep your costs low and profits high…simple!

Another tip to making your PPC ads cost effective is by the use of Keywords. As mentioned before the more popular the keyword/niche you target the more it will cost you. Therefore when you first start out using PPC ads it’s a good idea to pick a smaller niche within your market. For example within Internet Marketing Business Opportunities the two most popular keywords “Make Money Online” and “Home Business”. A way to find out smaller niches within your industry is to type your keyword “Internet Marketing” into Google Keywords and it will give you other popular keywords that you can target.

A top tip is if you are in a Internet Marketing business such as YourNetBiz you can choose the name of one of the top performing marketers as you keyword then put a “?” after their name as your headline. For example; Joe Bloggs? Find out the REAL FACTS about internet marketing here No holds barred FREE internet marketing report….This can take some of the traffic the higher performing marketer is creating and give it to you.

Creating an ad offering something for free will be popular; it doesn’t have to be the best product in the world just something that will help the viewer. For example I am involved with mentoring Internet Marketing newbies so I offer a free 30 page report on my business and some useful tips on how to market on the internet effectively. The key to using PPC ads effectively it to test different ads against each other and find out which are the best converting.

For an Internet Marketing newbie I suggest using free methods of internet marketing such as social networking before venturing in the world of PPC because you will not have as large a marketing budget. After you have earned money from free advertising you can afford to test multiples of ads to find out which are the highest converting. After you do start using PPC ads effectively though your list can grow very quickly and you can stand to make a lot of money.

A very large majority of people that enter the world of Internet Marketing fail; I will share with you the main reason behind this and how you can avoid failure by building a list you can sell to.

People tend to fail because they are new to Internet Marketing and have only learnt the Internet Marketing basic techniques, not how to present themselves and how to sell. This leads to them using in your face tactics which put people off from buying from them as they come across as a spammer.

If all you do is bang on at people about why your product is the best thing since sliced bread and come over as desperate people will NOT buy from you…FACT. Now why is this, well it is because you look completely unprofessional for starters and most importantly if your product/home business opportunity was so good then you wouldn’t have to shout about it from the rooftops to generate leads…surely the product would do that itself!

So you’re probably now wandering how do you go from desperate Dan….to having prospects call you up wanting to join your business or buy your product…well here you go:

Firstly ditch the idea of chasing people because you need their money, even if you do need money because you’re broke do not let it show!

This is done by branding yourself as a leader within your market by giving valuable information relating to your market, this comes in the form of articles, blog posts, videos etc. You do not have to of been involved with your market for years to have valuable knowledge that can help somebody who has no experience.

By teaching people about your market you gain status amongst the people who are interested in also joining your market (prospects). If you do a video on Social Networking Tips anyone who is interested in Internet Marketing that sees your video will look up to you as you’ve done a video so must know your stuff.

By branding yourself you will have prospects wanting to know more about you and your product/business opportunity before they even know what it is and without you having to use SELL, SELL, SELL tactics. You might not think that is true but I can tell you from my own experiences it is! I myself called my mentor up after seeing a couple of his videos and reading his bio page that gave a great insight into internet marketing.

It’s human nature for everyone that’s seeking help (prospects) to turn to a leader (you) that can provide them with advice and direction. The main reason I have such experience in this Industry is because my mentor was a highly successful Internet Marketer that shared his knowledge with me.

Give people valuable information, deliver it with confidence, give yourself value and people will really want to hear more from you! They will join your list and this is how you become a success online, this is tip that so many supposed mentors do not share! I hope now knowing this that you action it and become a leader!

This article came from the laptop of Jonathan Pitts. Jonathan is a highly respected Internet Marketing Mentor who is enabling people without any previous experience in this Industry to become successful Internet Marketers too! He does this by teaching them the same techniques he has used to make money online. Sick of the Smoke out there he has produced a Jonathan Pitts to give the facts on Internet Marketing.

To be successful in anything in life (not just Internet Marketing) you have to have the right mindset. Any successful person out there you see on TV such as sportman or actors have the right mindset. The below information is NOT some get rich quick scheme, instead it is information that has enabled me to become a successful entrepreneur and can do the same for YOU.

1) Belief – Believe in yourself 100%. If you do not believe in yourself then who will believe in your product or whatever you are promoting. Say out aloud that you WILL achieve success and your sub conscious will take note of this. Soon it will be second nature to believe in yourself.

2) Desire – You have to have a burning hunger to achieve whatever your goals are no matter what stands in your way. That DESIRE will drive you where others can’t go (the 97% of people). The human mind can produce amazing results when you are determined, every successful person, entrepreneur had a burning desire to be a success – a lump of cash didn’t just fall out of the sky!

3) Persistence – This ties in with desire. Desiring something to the extent you cannot see yourself living without it will make you persist. The reason why so many people fail in Internet Marketing is because they fall at the first hurdle, however if you persist at some point you WILL achieve success.

4) Passion – Be passionate about what you do. Internet Marketing can provide you with a really good lifestyle so be passionate about that; this will make you put the effort in and get you excited about your work. Your mind will come up with new ideas that will help your business if you are excited by it.

5) Planning – Internet Marketing is all about using your time efficiently. You have to have direction in where you are going to take your business so each day draw out what you want to achieve. Also give yourself a monthly plan and yearly plan. It doesn’t have to be exact but just an idea of where you want your business and yourself to be in a years time.

6) Team – Even the most successful people have a team supporting them. You must surround yourself with a team of people that share your vision and the ambition to reach your goals. You can share your knowledge with each other and can all benefit by this as you can learn from others that are stronger in one field that you’re not and vice versa. This is so important in internet home business because there is so much to learn, a perfect example of having a team is the Turn-Key Marketing Group.

7) Goals and Vision – Set yourself clear goals, this way your mind can work towards achieving these goals. It doesn’t just have to be a personal goal, if you’re in a team you can set a team goal and all work together to achieve it. With Internet Marketing if there are 10 people promoting a product/business opportunity rather than just one person the product will become more widely known and recognized.
8) Decision making – Make important decisions and act upon them. If you see an opportunity take ACTION. So many people out there do not take opportunitues; if you want to be successful you will have to take them! Succesful Internet Marketing entrepreneurs didn’t just wake up to a pile of cash, they saw an opportunity and actioned it!

Now I’m not saying you have to spend all your money on a home business opportunity but if one presents itself TAKE it! Of course make sure the business if legitimate but if it is take action and go for it!

9) Positivity – The most important factor is positivity! Positive attitude is the foundation of a successful home business. Go into the online world without it and you are certain to fail. You have to stay positive through the bad times as well as good. When you start reaching your success you will believe even more is achievable and this will become an endless cycle of more success = more belief. This is the reason the rich get richer and the poor get poorer because on the other scale for the poor the less success they reach= even less belief in themselves.

If you really go out and create a positive mindset you will be a SUCCESS!
