| There seems to be any number of appealing
Multi-Level Marketing programs available these days.
Our researchers haven't analyzed them all, but based
upon the appeal of those we have analyzed - their capabilities
of making money for the participants - most of them
look as though they could put money in your pockets.
However, don't ever delude yourself into thinking that
multi-level marketing won't cost you any thing nor require
much of your time, or work on your part. Indeed, successful
selling, and most assuredly, multi-level marketing,
will require an investment - dedication - and a lot
of hard work!
However, before you "sign-up" for any deal
or begin one of your own, it's going to pay you to do
a little bit of market research relative to the sales
potential of the whole deal. For instance, if you can
sell to a "waiting market," you'll make money.
But if the people you attempt to recruit as duplicates
of yourself feel that they are going to have a hard
time selling it to someone else, then you haven't got
much of a winning MLM program; regardless of how much
money you claim they can make, if only they'll get out
there and sell!
This specifically applies to MLM programs that offer
"limited appeal" products such as gourmet
recipes, health foods, household "knick-knacks,"
books on needlecraft or magazine subscriptions. Beware
also of deals that require you to purchase an inventory
or maintain a certain sales level. Look for the "bad
parts" of an offer, and then weigh these against
the ease with which you'll be able to make a sale. At
the bottom line, if you have a hard time selling it,
then the people you recruit to sell it for you will
find it even harder to sell, and that will be the end
of your "big money" multi-level program.
There are countless reports, manuals, books and other
publications that "supposedly" tell you how
to attain riches in mail order, party plan selling,
and even street-corner sales. The thing is, all of these
"how-to" publications try to instruct you
on how to put a mailing piece together, how often to
send your offers out, and even the importance of "neatness
& quality" within your offer, but very few
if any come right out and help you get your offer to
your most likely customers. As you know, unless an interested
buyer sees your offer, you're not going to make any
money.
What I'm saying is that most people thrash around,
waste time, spend hundreds of dollars, and never do
make any money simply because they don't know how to
get their offers to the people - without it costing
them an arm and a leg.
Here's how it's done: Regardless of what your offer
entails, put together the most dynamic and mass-appeal
"one-page" advertising circular you can come
up with. As I've so often stated in the past, the best-selling
and most-productive circular is one that "tells
the reader you have a solution to his money problems."
In other words, with your circular, promise him a way
to make himself rich, and he'll not only be interested,
he'll jump on your program.
Next make it as easy as possible for the people who
see your offer to respond. That is, in addition to an
order coupon at the bottom of the advertising circular
describing your offer, give him the chance to get involved
in your program for the least possible cost.
If you've put together a "winning offer,"
most people seeing it will want to know more about it,
but if you charge them $5 for registration or enrollment
fees, you'll lose about half of those "wanting
in," because they're afraid of being ripped off.
But if you charge them $2 or less, almost all of the
people seeing your offer will "take a chance,"
just to find out what kind of a deal it is you're offering.
In summary, you must have a one-page advertising circular
that really appeals to most of the people - YOUR CHANCE
TO SOLVE ALL YOUR MONEY PROBLEMS! It must include a
coupon the reader clips off and sends in to you for
enrollment or registration in your program. It has to
be priced at $2 or less to "get everybody"
to at least check it out. And, it must be complete on
one page to hold your printing costs in line.
Assuming you're with us, and organized thus far, take
this advertising circular you've made up in original
form, to a quick printer in your area. Ask him to print
up 10,000 of these one page advertising circulars for
you. This will cost you approximately $200.
If you don't have the money, you can either work an
arrangement with the printer to pay him in 30 days,
or include him in as a "silent partner" in
your program. Ask him to read over your offer, explain
how you intend to get it to the people, and about how
much money you expect to gross from it. Then, simply
offer to split the proceeds if he'll carry your printing
costs for you.
While the circulars are being printed, and the ink
is drying, line up your initial distribution efforts.
The first thing is to contact the Cub Scout and Brownie
organizations in your area. Arrange with the leaders
of these groups to pay them $10 per thousand if they'll
station people at the exits to all the shopping centers
in your area and pass out one of your circulars to everyone
as they leave the shopping center. Simply tell them
that you've got 10,000 of these circulars to hand out,
and that you'll pay them the $100 for handing them out,
on the first of the month.
The best kind of places to hand out your circulars
are those that feature discount stores, recycled clothing
stores, and inventory reduction sales. Next on your
list of places to hand out circulars should be Flea
Markets, Swap and Shop events, and even garage sales.
Anywhere there's a lot of people congregating or coming
going, is a good place to hand out your advertising
circulars - all in your own home town and without postage
costs.
Now comes the good part - while your "hired helpers"
are handing circulars out for you at strategic locations
throughout the area, you should be calling in person
on every shopkeeper and store owner or manager in the
area.
Show them each a copy o your circular. Explain your
program to them, and offer to cut them in on the profits
if they'll help you hand them out by dropping one in
with the purchases of each of their customers. The stores
won't want to become involved in extra bookkeeping nor
the handling of money for you, so you'll have to devise
a method of knowing where your orders come from - a
code for each of the stores handing out circulars for
you.
This is very simple. Just assign a different "department
number" to each store, and when you have the circulars
printed for each store, insert that department code
in the address the reader is supposed to send his order
to.
Generally speaking, you should offer to supply the
circulars without cost to the distributors, including
the "special coding" for each store. Thus,
the need for a good working relationship with a printer
in your area. The amount of commission per order received
that you allow to each store should range between 15
and 30 percent, but of course, always try to finalize
each deal for the least amount.
Be sure to keep good records of all your incoming
orders. It would be wise to have a separate record book
for each distributor. Thus, you can review the number
of orders received from each distributor's customers
with him when you pay him his commission at the end
of each month. At the same time, you should jot the
name, ad dress and phone number of each person sending
in an order, onto a 3 X 5 index card. Arrange these
cards in alphabetical and zip code order, and store
them in an old shoe box. When you have 10, 15, or 25
thousand of them, you'll be able to sell them at $l
per name to any number of mailing list brokers.
Another thing you'll want to do, each envelope you
receive - clip the stamp off and save these in still
another shoe box - stamp collectors will pay you $10
to $25 for each shoe box full of stamps you can collect.
After you've clipped the stamps off, place these envelopes
with your customer's return address in still another
storage box. Then you have several boxes full of these
envelopes from people who have spent money with you,
there are any number of "list buyers" who
will pay you for them.
Once you've got your town saturated with circular
distributors - be sure to leave a stack in all the barber
shops and beauty salons, as well as at the counter in
cafe restaurants, bowling centers, theaters, and the
"lodges" of all the fraternal as well as labor
unions in the area - your next move is simply to duplicate
these efforts in a neighboring town or city.
Basically, we're talking about multi-level marketing
and total advertising - recruiting efforts on your part.
Your main thrust should be to "pull in" as
many people as possible - show them the program, and
if they want it, let them get in on it - if not, forget
about them and move on to the next prospect This is
called "prospecting," and it's going to cost
you money and time, regardless of what you're trying
to sell.
So you put together an "invitation type announcement"
which is your initial $2 advertising circular, and you
get it to as many people as possible. They pay you a
"cover charge" of $2 to find out what your
program is all about. And before you get all upset and
throw this report in the waste basket, think about this:
Let's suppose there are 42,000 people in your town -
30,000 adults, and 18,000 separate families. If each
of these 18,000 families were to send you $2, how much
money would you have? $36,000 right? Now then, tell
me whether or not you'd like to have an extra $36,000.
The people send you $2 for a "look-see"
at your program for solving their money problems. You
send them back your multi-level program brochure which
describes how they can duplicate what you're doing and
make a bundle of money for themselves, and the cost
of supplies for them to get started. At the same time,
you send out an other one-page advertising circular
that offers business success reports. Just as an other
for in stance, let's say that 30% of the people receiving
your MLM Brochure en roll and send for a start-up kit
or supplies. You've expanded your MLM distributorship
and made money, right? And now, let's suppose that of
all the people who have sent in $2 to find out what
your program is all about, a total of 4 0% spend $5
with you for one of your business success reports -
$36,000 gross income for initial expenses of $600 -
then, let's say your MLM brochures cost you $100 per
thousand, for total expenses thus far of $2,400 - plus
another $600 for your business success reports circulars
- with another $11,250 as your commission from these
reports, for a total gross income thus far of $47,250
-then, 3rd class postage and envelope costs of $2,550...
Subtract your expenses from your gross income of $4
7,250 and you should end up taking $41,700 to your bank,
catching up on all your bills, or spending on a long
overdue vacation to Acapulco or Hawaii.
That's it! That's how easy and simple it is and it
actually works! Once you've covered your entire state
in this manner, simply start renting mailing lists of
people listed as Opportunity Seekers, and shotgun your
basic one-page, $2 offer to all of them. By following
these instructions and working according to this plan,
you should easily take in more than a million dollars
within the next twelve months.
We've been using the attached "$2 circular"
for some time now, and it's proven to be a fantastic
winner for us from the start. We had 10,000 printed
at a cost to us of $200 - paid a couple of cub scout
troops $100 to hand them out for us; and from that initial
10,000 circulars we handed out, we received 2,341 $2
inquiries = $4,682... And, an other 33 orders for the
MLM Manual offered on the same circular = $7,060 - Total
income from our initial $300 investment was $11,742...
Since that time, we've expanded our market, and we're
now putting out 10,000 of these circulars each and every
week.
You can do it too! All it takes is that first circular
and then, total distribution. If you'd like to make
some of this "big money" we've been talking
about - feel free to duplicate our circular with your
name/address on it, and get it out to the people in
your area.
