Success in Selling for MLM Companies and Distributors
The following article was written, rather quickly, following continued conversation by individuals seeking Succes, but going about it the wrong way.
Success in Selling for MLM Companies and Distributors
Success comes down to Sales of Real Products/Services to Real People.
The challenge is that many people have an imaginable desire of Success, with no real Passion for a particular Product or Service.
Take the MLM Company.
MLM Company A sells Nutritional Products.
MLM Company B sells Candles.
MLM Company C sells Pearl Jewelry.
MLM Company D sells Voip Service
...You think, "These are limited markets." "People are not impressed by any one single product."
So, you set out to have 50,000 products, including Satellite TV Service, Mobile Phones, Cosmetics, Purses, and T Shirts. You want to mirror existing MLM Companies, that you believe have established this pattern and seen success.
...You think, "I can be the Walmart or Cosco to the world!!!!"
No need in drawing the picture any farther.
It may be you that I am writing about. An old-time preacher would say I am "Plowing up your Corn Row!"
Six months go by and you've taken on inventory, minimum order relationships with suppliers, print/marketing material, websites, MLM Software, conference call services, merchant accounts, office space, warehouse space, employees... and you've registered 200+ distributors with the largest commission check on sales performance of a mere $28.95.
What happened?
You selected Great Products that everyone "Needs".
You established yourself as a potential Multi-Billion Dollar MLM Company.
There seems to be no excitement among your people. They say, they are excited, but sales tell a different story.
Answer: You took a Shot-Gun approach to your Product Line. That often leads to a Shot-Gun approach to other areas of your business, including Marketing.
With no single focus, your new distributors... your sales force has no focus. They show up to meetings, they smile, they go home... The sell almost nothing.
Had you chosen to launch on 1-2 products, of a common theme, you would have better sales and a growing sales force of independent distributors. Six months into business, make an announcement of a product release, to eager distributors, and an existing customer base. Carefully released with White Papers, Press Releases, YouTube Video, Conference Calls, and possibly an initial discount on the first orders, your product line just expanded with success!
Every 3-6 months, you introduce another product, appropriate to your company's vision, current product line, and market demands.
Even if you are a nutritional supplement company with 200 products. Launch with 1-2 products and follow this formula of product releases. Then, you will see success.
As a Distributor, if your MLM Company has taken a Shot-Gun approach to their product line, don't loose hope.
Follow the same path I just laid out with the MLM Companies.
Select 1-2 products that You can be Passionate about. Remember, the best way to reach success in sales, is to have a personal testimony of what the product/service has done for YOU! Focus on those 1-2 products that you can be passionate about, that you use, and that you have a personal testimony about.
Then, and only then, are sales as simple as Sharing with Others.
After 3-6 months, announce through your personal customers and your personal sales team, a new product of the company for which you can now say you are passionate and WHY!
Keep the momentum going and show consumers your enthusiasm for Real sales of Real products/services that benefit Real People!!!
Those who choose to follow the mass recruit path... This article is not intended for you.
There are real companies, with real opportunities, selling real products/services to real people.
I highly recommend you associate yourself with such companies.
If you are tired of following the wrong people and would like to step out on your own, call me.
I want to see you in the Winner's Circle!
Sincerely,
Scott H Leonard

This site, MLM Software Central, is one of many sites I utilize to promote Software and Consulting Solutions for Business, with a focus on the Network Marketing, MultiLevel Marketing, Direct Selling, or MLM Industries. No matter what you tag your business model with, if you are developing a sales force of independent representatives who may earn a revenue, based upon their own sales and possibly upon the sales of others in their team, your Software and Business needs are unique.
Other business models, such as Real Estate, Insurance, or even Car Dealers may be considered 'Traditional' business models on the front end, while their sales department is often structured similar to Network or MultiLevel Marketing.
Then you have Church organizations. While not a business model for the purpose of generating income for members, the networking element is very similar. Often times Christian religious organizations follow the method of inviting others to join their membership. Those that join are often encouraged to do the same... invite others.
Beginning in Spain, during the 1800's, then in the USA... a term 'Affinity Group' came in to use. It's original meaning seemed to be more of a group or organization of individuals with similar goals, but with no non-hierarchical management. In that sense, Affinity Group would not normally be utilized in the Network Marketing, Real Estate, Insurance, or Religious group definitions, but several years ago, the term began to be used a bit, as we actually view the members or independent representatives as dictating their own time. While the business model and benefits may be defined by a hierarchical management, the individual members or sales representatives are autonomous, thus leading to Affinity Group being a generalized term for these group models. I do not choose to use this term often, but wanted to take a moment to mention it for you to have a better understanding of the similarities of organizations.
