The Get Paid First Alternative To The MLM Business Model



Read More: Prospecting  |  Sponsoring and Recruiting

Some MLM models end up being nothing more than ‘pyramid selling’ schemes leaving you floundering to make any money.
The first reaction of people trapped in such a situation is to either a) think it’s all their fault or, b) throw more money into Google Adwords or other forms of advertising breaking credit card limits. This is very frustrating and can lead to having less money than the original aim of a second income. Does any of this sound familiar? If so read on.
Firstly, the good news – it’s not your fault. The nature of traditional MLM mean that to make a residual income you have to keep recruiting prospects. At least 30% of these prospects has to convert into customers or affiliates. This is referred to as growing your downline.
The need to grow the downline means that Sponsors focus on recruiting more and more people. They usually don’t have time to train their team as a result people become disillusioned. People drop out of the team so recruiting becomes more frantic to cope with the attrition rate. Add to this many of the products don’t have intrinsic value it is little wonder the drop out rate is 97%.
So what should you look for in a good internet business opportunity? Note I said ‘business opportunity’. It is crucial that you adopt the mindset this opportunity is a business not a hobby. I will touch on mindset later in the series.
The key things to look for in an online business opportunity are:
•    Check the company you are affiliating with. What is their track record? How can you verify any projected income claims? If your potential Sponsor can’t or won’t answer these questions walk way.
•    Is there turn-key back office system that does most of the ‘donkey work’ so you can focus on marketing and getting more customers?
•    Does the company offer high quality training in a variety of formats. Will your Sponsor be accessible for assistance?
•    Is the product you are going to sell a quality product, meaning people would be prepared to pay the full price for the product even if you are discounting it?

Business Models Drive The Behavior In The Field

The way that these companies plan their business models will cause people to want to recruit, recruit and recruit. It's not the individual’s fault that they cannot make a successful living from their business. Why, because it was designed that way. This is not for all companies, but many.

The best way to get around all of this is to become knowledgeable of this industry. Some of the reasons why people fail are because they jump from affiliate to affiliate to affiliate, spending up all of their money, do not spend time to learn about the industry, are mislead or quit. These are surely just a few examples of why, but the key in preventing all of this is by gaining knowledge. With knowledge and a burning desire you can become successful, not just in this industry, anything.

Best wishes to you,
