Importance of Leads in MLM business
The information containing details of the sale, provided by the
MLM business owner, to contact people interested in the business
and vice-versa is called leads. The leads can be fresh and
stale. People who show interest in your business most recently
form fresh leads whereas, those that have shown interest in your
business few weeks ago or not that recently form stale leads. It
might be possible that people who had shown interest in the past
might not be interested any longer due to any reason. They might
have got some better deal or may have any other personal reason.
The fresh leads are the potential leads. You must concentrate on
them.
Generating leads is not a big deal. You can either find them or
buy them. There are flip sides to both these conditions apart
from the benefits. For finding leads on your own you need to
advertise, create websites, write articles and some how get more
and more people to come to you for information. If you want
leads in short span of time you can buy them. This would give
you as many number of leads as you have thought of. The only
point here is that you will have to part with some of your
money. Do not forget that buying leads is cheaper than creating
websites and getting people to visit that site. Buying enables
you to concentrate completely on your business since you already
have the clients. The best option is to buy some and get some on
your own.

leads are in the form of emails. Leads get stale and are of no
use if you delay in responding to them. In auto response the

your name, your contact address, telephone number and a message
that you would get back to him or her as soon as possible.
