MLM Business | Advertising
Can you advertise in your MLM business? I can’t tell you how many people I have spoken to recently that are not allowed to advertise their MLM business! Not advertise their mlm products, not advertise their mlm opportunity, nothing!
How Are You Going to Get Business?
When I’m told this, the first thought that enters my mind is; these poor people! How are they going to reach their dreams, goals and desires?! They are excited, everything is within their reach, or so they are led to believe.
Then they are hit with the “write down 100 names” thing, and they start to get that “sinking” feeling. It hits way down, in the pit of your stomach, you wonder, can I really “sell” my friends and family?
Oh, don’t worry they say, you’re not really “selling” you’re “sharing”…yeah, right! You know what it is, and more importantly, you know what it feels like and it feels like you’re selling. So you ask, well what about advertising, that makes sense to you and, now here’s the best part, in your MLM business they say you can’t advertise, it’s all work of mouth. Now you’re really getting that Uh oh feeling…you’re thinking, how is this supposed to work? Can I really do this without advertising?
Without Advertising MLM Doesn’t Work
Why doesn’t it work? Because 92% of the population is sales resistant and they don’t like to sell or be sold, only a small few like to sell and be sold, they’re the Red personalities. Those 8% are the ones telling the rest of us to make those 100 name lists. We want to be successful, so we make that list, and it doesn’t work!
Ok, let’s just say that you dig in there and MAKE yourself do it. You make your list; you white knuckle it and just get it done. Now you’re stuck with this dilemma, how duplicatable is it?
Can the people you’ve brought in do it? There in lies the problem. Maybe you can do it, but you know how hard it really is, how hard the rejection is to take. See, you have a conscious, you know what these people are going to be running into and in the back of your mind, because you are caring person, it’s hard for you to subject anyone else to that kind of rejection.
Unless you’re a diehard Red personality, it’s totally against your nature. You care about people and don’t want them to have to deal with all that rejection too.
Advertising Is the Answer!
You see, non MLM businesses have known this all along. Why, because it works!
Even better, target your advertising. Only talk to the people who’ve raised their hands and say I want to hear about what you have. That’s rejection free advertising. Not everyone will want what you have, and that’s perfectly OK, don’t talk to them and you won’t be rejected. Anyone can do that! When you take rejection out of the equation it’s duplicatable for everyone. That’s what you want.
There are so many companies out there tying their distributor’s hands, telling them you can’t advertise here, or you can’t advertise there or you can’t advertise at all. It’s strictly belly to belly “word of mouth” advertising they say, “Because it’s the most effective form of advertising”.
OK, if it’s so effective how come it’s so hard to do? After all it is called Network Marketing not Network beat your friends and family over the head until they buy or join!
Remember 92% of the population doesn’t like to sell or be sold, so don’t do it! Advertising is the answer and if your company doesn’t allow it, then your company is tying your hands and you need to find a company who will untie them and let you build it the right way for you!
