<p>Before we answer that question, let&#8217;s think about the importance of prospecting. Many people in the MLM business know that a steady flow of prospects is the lifeblood of your MLM business. MLM prospecting system enables you to make the whole process of getting a constant or even an endless flow of prospects to show your business in auto-pilot mode once you understand how the MLM prospecting system works. The learning process may be rocky and takes some effort but the outcome will be very rewarding once you get it running smoothly.</p>
<p>With a good MLM prospecting system running well, you could save an invaluable asset and a commodity that most people fall short of - time. Besides saving time, it can sort your prospects into those that are serious to work with you and the tire-kickers.</p>
<p>I can promise you won’t want the tire-kickers in your MLM business at all costs because they are just curious, don’t want to do work and can even kill businesses. However, you can’t afford to close them so it’s a good idea to divide these kinds of people out so you do not waste your time entertaining the wrong crowd.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.dreateamformula.com">Dream Team Formula</a> automates the follow up system through the free tour page. So every new prospect is funneled through a series of pre-loaded autoresponder emails to ensure that you end up with only the most qualified prospects.</p>
<p>Lastly, a MLM prospecting system could be seen as insurance for your business and assurance for your prospects because it is easier for a new prospect to find success in MLM business if they have a successful and proven system to follow to gather their own prospects.</p>

MLM is a challenging business and requires lots of hard work. In order to build a profitable and steady downline you need to exhibit these leadership traits.</p>
<p><strong>Determination </strong>– It is an important ability especially to MLM business. If you keep at something long enough, it is definitely bound to work out and eventually succeed. You can apply this to your MLM team by continuing to come up with creative ways together of staying on the top of the competitions even though the competitors are tough.</p>
<p><strong>Positive Attitude</strong> – Keeping a positive attitude is the key to running a smooth and efficient MLM team. A good attitude can see you through the hard times and your team will be more motivated to work harder when they see a positive future which you can lead them to.</p>
<p><strong>Vision </strong>– Every leader needs to have vision regardless of which business they are in. This vision allows you to see what many others may not be able to – success. Besides imparting his vision to others through sheer enthusiasm, a good leader will be able to get everyone to work towards the vision.</p>
<p>I’m a strong believer that anyone can be a successful leader by going through the appropriate training and experience. If you are weak in some areas, continue to work on these areas. Remember to cultivate an environment where you teach these traits to those who follow you and you will become a respectful leader.</p>
<p>The Dream Team Formula system is the perfect system to provide you instant credibility as an MLM leader. By putting yourself in the position to give away your personal referrals to your downlines (in 1 line vertical spill-over),  you are proving yourself to your prospects and downlines that you are committed to help them succeed instead of earning quick bucks as a heavy hitter.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2351/2189885156_bb3ca336a4_m.jpg" alt="grabthatlead.com" class="left" height="240" width="231" />One of the ways to build a long term business is to have a good database of contact list and also to teach your downlines build a list as well.  I learnt from a personal mentoring workshop with Internet Super Affiliate Ewen Chia that the first thing is to put a form or squeeze page before the actual product/services that you are promoting.</p>
<p>When your website visitor submits the form then they are redirected to your business page ( in this case your MLM opportunity page). This way even if they don&#8217;t join you immediately, you would have gotten their email addresses which you can follow through.</p>
<p>In order to put this in place, you need the following:</p>
<ol>
<li>A form/pop up/video/audio in your squeeze page to encourgae visitors to key in their emails</li>
<li>An automatic email responder that will send a welcome letter immediately to your prospects</li>
<li>Redirection to your main business page</li>
<li>Instant notification to you that you have a lead</li>
</ol>
<p>The best way to set this up is to use an autoresponder. I recommend 2 of the best:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://bezurl.com/autoresponder" target="_blank">Aweber</a> : $19.9/month for 10,000 leads</li>
<li><a href="http://www.grabthatlead.com/join.php?id=29" target="_blank">Grab That Lead</a>: $9.97 for Platinum for unlimited leads.<br />
Free membership available too.</li>
</ul>
<p>If you already have an autoresponder membership, then check out this great report on how to maximize your profits with autoresponders.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.go2mylink.com/here/mautoresponder/">Click here to download &#8220;Making Money With Autoresponder&#8221;</a></p>
<p>I am giving away 3 free copies of the report in the link above.  All you need to do to get it is to write your comment and rate this post. I&#8217;ll select the best 3 comments to give the report too.</p>

<ol>
<li><strong>Exchange links with other website owners</strong> or  entrepreneurs that share the same target market as you, but are not your competitors. For example if you are promoting vitamins, you can find link partners from websites that market health equipment or fitness programs.</li>
<li><strong>Offer a <a href="http://www.go2mylink.com/here/FirstWebsite" target="_blank">free 7 day e-course</a></strong>. Educating your prospects is the best way of convincing them. If you can offer something that they are interested in or a solution that helps to solve their problem, they will gain more confidence in you.</li>
<li><strong>Establish a good rapport with your leads by by sending them a weekly newsletter</strong> for as long as 6 months. You may think that the 7 day short course is enough, it&#8217;s NOT! It is important to keep them informed about your business progress and offers regularly so that they will buy from you whenever they are ready.</li>
<li><strong>Use an </strong><a href="http://www.grabthatlead.com" target="_blank"><strong>autoresponder</strong> </a>to automate the delivery of your newsletter / e-course. This is a no brainer. How else are you going to send your emails on time and keep track of who has read what?</li>
<li><strong>Always use an email signature</strong>. You probably send out at least one email each day, your email signature is one of the best and free advertisement tool.</li>
<li><strong>Request for testimonials</strong> from your clients and downlines.  People need social proof before they commit to any group.  Testimonials from your downlines who can vouch for your dedication and leadership in the business are the quickest way to get people to join you.</li>
<li><strong>Start a blog or <a href="http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/395464/instant_website_traffic_with_social.html" target="_blank">write articles</a>.</strong>  The fastest way to be recognized as an MLM leader is to share your experience. Not only will you get free exposure from your writing, if you can give valuable information, most people will regard you as an expert in your field. This is where attraction marketing is at work, so instead of you going after prospects, they will come looking for you</li>
<li><strong>Submit your articles to <a href="http://www.ezinearticles.com" target="_blank">article directories</a> and social bookmarking sites.</strong>  With the rise of web 2.0, linking multiple sites to your main opportunity website becomes much easier. When you submit your articles to various directories or social bookmarks,  the search engine will index your main website much faster</li>
<li><strong>Conduct a webinar or teleclass</strong>. This is by far the fastest way to attract prospects to join your business.  Each attendee is a new lead and you can even leverage on them to bring in more people. If they have benefit from your online seminar, you can offer them a special discount or privilege pass for your next event on the condition that they bring a friend.</li>
<li><strong>P</strong><strong>articipate in active communities</strong>.  Join discussions in forums or <a href="http://www.facebook.com/people/Kerri_Tan/677348453" target="_blank">social networking sites</a> where your target market gathers.  Don&#8217;t be too eager to promote your opportunity. People don’t buy from people they don’t know, so position yourself as a solution provider and offer free consultation to gain trust.</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1412/1398070630_e7422b1934_m.jpg" alt="MLM Dream Team Formula" class="left" height="181" width="240" />Multilevel Marketing, or MLM, has huge potential for income. If you sell something, you make money. If you sell on behalf of a company, you stand to make a nice commission from that sale. For most sales plans, that is where the trail ends. But with MLM, the earning potential from a single sale is much more.</p>
<p><strong>Basics of MLM</strong><br />
In multilevel marketing, you earn not only from your own sales, but from the sales of those you’ve recruited to the program. For instance, if you have a friend or colleague sign up underneath you in an affiliate program, you have created a downline. Now, when your friend makes a sale, he will get a commission from that sale, but you also get a small commission simply for having recruited him in the first place.</p>
<p><strong>Passive Income</strong><br />
With enough referrals, you can generate a substantial amount of passive income. You stand to gain from each person you have signup downline. And if those people recruit a downline, you make a bit from those sales as well. The building pattern continues with each new recruit and branches out indefinitely. Over time, your initial recruiting efforts will have paid off in a big way.</p>
<p>Even if some of your downline is unsuccessful or decides not to continue with the program, you will have many others still generating you income without any additional effort on your part. Not only that, but you are still selling your own products and earning that commission as well. The income potential, both passive and active, is huge.</p>
<p><strong>Self-Employment</strong><br />
Perhaps the most enticing aspect of MLM is that it isn’t done from a cubicle somewhere. When you sign up to become a marketer with a MLM business, you are setting up your own business. You are, in essence, becoming self-employed.</p>
<p>Self-employment is not for the feint of heart, but leaving a steady paycheck behind opens up the door for unlimited earnings and unstructured work hours. In MLM, nobody cares if you work in your pajamas or slippers, and nobody is the wiser if you make all your major deals while sitting with your laptop at your local coffee shop. In fact, the only thing that matters in MLM is your bottom line. Did you make the sale?</p>
<p>In a traditional salaried job, you are working for someone else. The officers and upper management of any company stand to make huge amounts of money from your labor. You will be paid the same amount regardless of how much you actually bring the company and the people above you. The exception would be a career in sales, but even then, part of your commission is going to your boss.</p>
<p>If you are tired of working for someone else, MLM may be perfect for you. You’ll no longer be sitting in a cube all day listening to a droning boss. You’ll become your own boss, and maybe even be in charge of others. You set the hours and only your ambition and abilities set the limits.</p>

Often it is closely portrayed to pyramid schemes or other unethical business practices. The nature of a MLM business is sound, however. The darker aspects only appear when leaders are unethical or the business in wrongly presented.</p>
<p><strong>MLM Shortcomings</strong><br />
MLM has serious shortcomings in portrayal. The basis of multilevel marketing is to build on the success of others. A person promotes and sells a product. He recruits a friend to sell the same product and then gets a percentage of the friend’s earnings. The original marketer also gets a portion of any profits made by individuals his friend recruits.</p>
<p>The more affiliates signed up under a marketer, the more that marketer stands to make in residual income. Of course he is also still selling the original product and earning far more with those commissions than the small shares of downstream commissions.</p>
<p>The major sticking point for many MLM programs is that the business is not shown properly. MLM is based heavily on sales, and this is not always made clear to new representatives. You not only sell a product, but you also can sell the business idea to others. When a presenter claims that the product will sell itself or that you will be making money overnight simply by purchasing a starter kit, he’s selling a dream – not the MLM program.</p>
<p>There is money to be made in MLM programs, but the wrong program won’t ever work for you. A true MLM program focuses on product sales, not second tier sign-ups. If you happen to develop a large group of recruits, terrific, but the product sale is the goal – not the recruits. A program that focuses solely or too heavily on getting other recruits is a pyramid scheme and illegal.</p>
<p>Some MLM programs seem attractive because it seems all you have to do is get your friends and family to sign-up and you’ll be making money. Others require you to purchase a starter kit that has far more inventory than you feel comfortable selling. A quality MLM business isn’t pushy and doesn’t hide the truth. You are selling something which requires work and finesse. The harder you work, the more profit you’ll see – but it is still a job, not a dream vacation.</p>
<p><strong>MLM Structural Problems</strong><br />
One of the largest problems with some MLM businesses is the management is unethical or not effective. The higher ups in a business plan always stand the make the most money, whether they readily admit it or not. When a MLM program is hyped by a manager who assures you his income is the norm or that he doesn’t have to work more than a few hours a day to make a living, he’s playing with smoke and mirrors.</p>
<p>He might be high enough in the plan to have a large amount of passive revenue, but he didn’t start there. Anyone successful with MLM programs learned the ropes and fine-tuned their skills and abilities before climbing the financial ladder. The rate of the climb varies tremendously by person, but one person’s success is never a sure sign of your own. There is a great deal of room to be successful with a MLM business, but don’t be fooled into believing it will happen without you steadfastly coaxing it along.</p>
