Questions about MLM marketing

Hello,

I recently joined an mlm that seems to be pretty solid. I was hoping to
market the product and the business over the web but all the free marketing
programs seem to be full of cheap scams. It seems that all the marketers are
swarming ad exchange sites and ffa sites to no avail. I guess Ill follow
suit and promote my business like all the sheep, after all it is
free......But I would also like to promote through something that hasnt been
completely raped by marketers. I would greatly appreciate any advice. Even
if it requires alot or work or even a little money. I am very willing to
invest in either as long as I know I have something solid.

Dane,

TANSTAAFL - There aint no such thing as a free lunch. The reason you don't
feel good about the "services" you mention is your gut is telling you its
too good to be true.

If your MLM provides a quality product, and your agreement permits you to
advertise via the Web, then you proceed as any business:

1. What's my target audience? What are they like? What do they want?
What makes them want my product? What are their hot buttons /
sensitivities?

2. What makes my product good / better than the competition? What specific
benefits does it provide?

3. How much does my target audience know about my product? What do they
think about it?

4. What do I want to accomplish through my marketing? Make people aware of
the product? Make them aware of me? Have them prefer my product over the
competition? Have them try my product (trial)? Have them purchase my
product? Have them establish a relationship with me (newsletters, email
notices, etc.)?

Then, unlike the sheep, you don't look for something for nothing. You SPEND
SOME MONEY and have a good website designed, hosted, deployed, and promoted.

You can follow the same process in terms of gaining affiliates / downlines,
etc. for your business. But you have to think and act like a business
person, not someone chasing the end of the rainbow.

Good luck in your endeavors.
