Why Are You Looking For The Top MLM Companies?
Author : Lynne and Chad Eribourne
MLM, Multi-Level Marketing, or Network Marketing is an incredible industry, and yet it is also one of the most misunderstood and misrepresented industries.
You're searching for top MLM companies. Why?
Are you looking for a good company to join? Unfortunately, looking for the top MLM companies may not be the best way to decide what company you should join.
First, let’s talk about Network Marketing. What’s it all about?
The concept is simple. A company has a product or service they wish to sell, but doesn't want to make the costly investment of setting up retail stores around the city/country/world. Instead, they have consultants or distributors market and sell their products or services.
Paying for retail space as well as utilities, employees and insurance can be expensive so this eliminates those expenses. Having to spend money on marketing to gather customers can also put a dent in the budget.
This is where the network marketer comes in. We, as network marketers are in charge of acquiring our own leads and customers for the products or services we are selling. Then we are compensated by the MLM or network marketing company we have a contract with. This is the money they would have otherwise spent on retail space, utilities, advertising etc.
We find prospects through means of effective marketing strategies and then turn them into customers. Quite often, many of these customers decide to become consultants because it appears to be a wonderful opportunity.
Here’s the problem. It is a wonderful opportunity, but running a succcessful MLM or network marketing business doesn't have a whole lot to do with joining the top MLM company.
Taking responsibility and ownership over your business is how you have success in network marketing. Taking that responsibility is important because after all, you are starting your own business when you join a network marketing company.
Is Looking For Top MLM Companies A Bad Idea?
No. I’m not saying it’s a bad idea. It's just that there are many other factors to think over when you are making the decision to get started in the network marketing industry.
Here are some examples:
Are you passionate about the product line? This isn’t a retail job where you just sell what you are told to sell. Your customers will see right through you if you are not passionate about the product because if you don't believe in it, why should they? Hint: You want a product that you care about and believe in. You want to be marketing a product you'd want to sell (and be able to), even if there wasn't a business opportunity attached to it.
Does the company provide you with the proper leadership, tools and training? Quite possibly this might be the first time you have started your own business. You want to be sure that you will be provided with the necessary tools to be successful. Hint: This is as much for you as it is for your future team members. If there isn't any training in place, you are going to be solely responsible for training your new members as they get started.
How are the orders processed? Will you be responsible for any monthly costs or overhead? Will you have to take the orders or will they go directly through the company? Hint: You are going to want as much of this automated and handled by your company as possible to save you a lot of potential headaches and time!
How does the compensation plan work? Will you be paid for your efforts directly or will you only make money once you have thousands of distributors beneath you? This can be a big one and is one of the reasons that we are involved in the company we are in. Hint: making a bunch of small ticket sales isn't necessarily easier than selling just a few big ticket items.
Who will your sponsor be? In all network marketing companies, you sign up under another distributor who becomes your sponsor. Make sure that you find a good sponsor. Someone who is invested in this industry and in your success. Hint: You want to join someone who will be there to help you with questions, and share their experiences and successes.
At the end of the day, you are the one who is ultimately responsible for your success, but having a good sponsor can help take months or even years off of your learning curve.
What are the leaders of the company like? Do they represent nothing but integrity and high morals or do you even know anything about them? Are they just pictures on the company websites or are they invested in the success of their business? Hint: You want to be involved in a company that has the kind of leadership you can look up to - people who you could almost see as your friends, people who you can trust and respect.
So, you see, being a “top MLM company” isn’t the end-all be-all to making your decision – remember, just because a company is at the top, doesn’t necessarily mean they are anything more than a passing fad.
These are just a few things to think about when it’s time to make this important decision. Just keep in mind that you are starting your own business which is very exciting, but there is work involved.
However, if you are willing to work as hard on your business and yourself as you do on your day job, that day job will soon be just a memory!
Welcome to this great community and good luck with your decision!
