Success
Network Marketing Training- The Top 10 MLM Tools You will use in
Network Marketing
by Doug Firebaugh
We went over the reasons for using tools in an earlier article,
and this mlm training module will go over the 10 tools that you
will be using hopefully on a regular basis.
I have found over the years that the distributors who use the
mlm tools regularly and with mastery, have larger and more
powerful organizations for the most part.
Do you want a powerful group and a large number of people? Than
you need to learn the 10 tools and then choose 3 or 4 of them
and master them, but you must learn to be equipped to use what
we at PassionFire call the "Master Tool"--which is number one:
1)MLM Tools -The Telephone.
The telephone is the MLM Master tool that all millionaires in
this business use...they not only have mastered the use of the
phone, but teach their people to do the same thing.
The telephone is the most time EFFECTIVE tool there is.
INFERNO Secret:
The telephone will help you master your time and business, if
you master it.
Many people have "phone-phobia,"and I am amazed that they can
talk to anyone on the phone about most anything, but when it
comes to this network marketing business, they freeze up and
many cannot do it.
You need to find some good training for the phone, talk to your
sponsor and see what he/she recommends...and PassionFire will
have several modules on intense telephony...(training how to
master the phone).
2)MLM Tools-The Voice Mail
IN MLM, You need to set up a Voice mail system and utilize it to
catch and retrieve messages that you would have missed.
If you are doing this business right, than you will need a VM
system to stay on top of your business. The telephone company
has one available, and also check with your company to see if
they have a corporate sponsored system that you can use as many
mlm companies do, and I highly encourage companies to do so.
Put a short message on you VM, and make it no longer than a
minute. Mmany people leave the name of their company, many
don't, I never did, but do what you think is best for you and
your group.
Also, make sure you can retrieve VM messages from out of
town...this will become Important once your group starts to
grow....
3)MLM Tools-Three Way Calling.
This is the SECOND MASTER Tool. This is almost as important as
the telephone. What is 3 way calling?
It is put on your phone by the phone company, and it allows you
to call someone, put them on hold, dial another number, than
click the first call you made over, and you have 3 people on the
line at once! You, your first call, and your second call, like a
"Mini Conference Call."
This allows you to introduce your sponsor to your warm market
over the phone and let someone who is more experienced than you
to talk to your folks, and you learn at the same time.
You will learn how to do HOT 3 ways with PassionFire, and there
will be several trainings you can read on how to master the 3
way.
By the way, 3 way calling is one of the most wrongly used tools
in MLM, and you will learn how to use right and create a
magnetic phone call.
4)MLM Tools- Audios.
Audios, or cassettes and CDs, are a great tool that can help
introduce the concept and message of your company to the
marketplace. It is a very simple thing to use, and pretty
inexpensive usually.
The audio, will within a short time frame, will give enough
information to see if the prospect is interested either in your
products and services, or the business. It will help bridge the
gap between the new distributor, who is learning the business,
and the prospect, who wants a professional presentation, the
audio does that.
Interactive CDs have become very popular, and there are great
ones out there. Whatever you choose to use, just use it a lot!
Either way, use the audios all the time as they are
duplicatable, and they work the same everytime as you are
learning the network marketing business.
5)MLM Tools- Videos.
Videos are popular, but not as much as they were in the early
90s.....videos help to tell your story from a visual and audio
standpoint, but understand that videos are watched less than
audios are listened to.
There is an exception.
Streaming videos and audios are becoming VERY popular on the
internet, and many websites have them online, and the quality of
the videos online are improving daily it seems and you may want
to check it out.
Make sure your video you use, as audios too, are NOT boring. You
want a video that is hip, and moves, and is exciting.
6) MLM Tools-Self -Replicating Websites.
Many MLM companies today have what are called "Self Replicating
Websites," like you have probably with your company. it is a
website that allows you to have your own personal web page, and
usually you can put your picture and a note from you on it to
personalize it.
I highly recommend you get one, as they are very affordable
today, and it gives you a place where people can go online and
check out who you and your company are.
Make sure your website is professional looking. There is nothing
that will turn a prospect off quicker than a sloppy and
unprofessional web page.
7) MLM Tools-Brochures.
Brochures are a must in todays world. They not only visually
can tell your story, but also can tell it thousands of times
when you are not there.
You can give them out, mail them, and even use it as a
presentation. They normally are 4 color, and look professional,
and they usually can be purchased from your network marketing
company.
Make sure you use them, and use them often and train your folks
top do the same thing.
8) MLM Tools-Presentation Book.
This is a MUST for face to face presentations. I is simply a
"flip book" that you use and you flip pages to explain about the
MLM company, products, and Comp Plan.
You can make your own with the brochures your company has, and
put the pages in clear plastic sleeves, and then put it in a 3
ring binder.
What has become popular are "Mini Flip charts" that are about
the size of your hand, and can be fit in a pocketbook and pulled
out to do an 'instant" presentation anywhere. You simply flip
the pages as you read them. Most do about a 5 minute
presentation...
9) MLM Tools- Email.
This tool has become invaluable the last 5 years in ALL
businesses, including MLM. And most network marketing companies
today have their own email program, so check into it and see...
If not, you can get free email many places, including:
http://www.yahoo.com
http://www.msn.com
http://www.email.com
These are just a few. See what you can find and get you and
email account. It will become a source of incredible
communication for you and your business.
10) MLM Tools- Business Cards and Stationary.
You MUST have network marketing business cards if you are going
to be in any business today, especially in MLM. You must have
your name, your phone number, and email on it, as it is a COMMUN
ICATION tool. It lets people know how to get in touch with you.
Make your mlm cards professional looking, but don't over do the
info on it. A cluttered and "busy" card can look unprofessional.
See your upline to see if the company has their own cards, and
see how much they are. You can get free business cards on the
web as well. See your sponsor for that.
It is the same for stationary. Make it clean and professional
looking. Not a lot of stuff that makes it look cluttered. It
helps to also to match your business cards as that is what we
call "Coordinated Power."
If you want your picture on the cards and stationary...fine. It
will cost you a little more.
Those are the top 10 tools...are there more you can use?
SURE!
But these are the main ones you will use to build your netrwork
marketing business....
Learn to master 3 of them...make sure the Telephone and 3 Way
calling are 2 of them in your MLM and Network Marketing business!
