CHAPTER 1

Traditional (Offline) Network Marketing V/S

Digital Network Marketing (Online) 



If your business is not on the internet then your business will be out of business."  

Bill Gates


Traditional Network Marketing

Traditional offline marketing is generally a more aggressive and intrusive approach. It's also more labor intensive. Three-foot rules, cold calling, hotel and home meetings can most certainly work for many network marketers. (How else would the industry have grown to what it is today.)

Digital Network Marketing

Network marketing online, when done right, gets prospects coming to YOU asking about your business. This is because you'll be using Attraction Marketing – versus having to constantly approach  prospects with interruption marketing. Social Media is the new word of mouth. 


Watch the video below where we explain 10 major differences between doing Network Marketing business in Traditional way V/S Digital way.

Smart network marketers now use social media for lead generation & prospecting and even for giving training & support to their team.

Fact

Attracting prospects to you creates an atmosphere where residual income becomes a reality.



Your business becomes much more automated, so leads and sales begin to flow in day and night. So you can soon start waking up to leads in your inbox. Which means you'll never run out people to talk to about your business.  Prospects chase you instead of the other way around.

You'll definitely enjoy the benefits of this way of marketing (if you do it right.)

So let's get to how to do network marketing online, and more importantly, how to do it right so YOU can achieve network marketing success. There are some critical skills you'll have to develop and use.

Let's start learning..

The 5 Skills for Effective Online Network Marketing

Network Marketing Skill #1: Branding

One of the biggest mistakes network marketers make when they get online is having the wrong approach to branding.

Most people get online, get excited, and immediately all of their marketing looks like an ad for their company. They constantly promote their business opportunity... or their products.

They proudly splash the name of the company all over the place.

There's nothing wrong with being proud of the company you're promoting. However, you may have already realized this doesn't work! So what does work?

Branding YOU!

Branding YOU and YOUR image online is one of the most important principles you must embrace if you want to grow your MLM business, ESPECIALLY with network marketing online.

Have you heard the saying “People Join People Not Businesses?”  This is absolutely a true statement.

What people are really looking for is the person that can help them succeed with a home business.  In other words, they're not looking for a business as much as they're looking for a leader.

So you have to put YOU in front of your business! You need to become the face for 'You Inc.'

When you make this shift, you really never have to even talk about your opportunity upfront. People start asking (practically begging) to know what it is so they can work with you!



We have a step-by-step system that shows you EXACTLY how to build your Personal Brand, create influence and become an expert in your niche from ZERO to HERO in just 30 days!

Network Marketing Skill #2: Content Creation.

So we've been talking about building the brand of YOU, and establishing yourself as an authority that people know, like and trust.

The way to do that and build your network marketing business online is by consistently providing valuable content to your marketplace. This will attract your target audience to YOU.

By selflessly providing value without them even asking, you build know, like, and trust! This is the way to make people want to connect with you and join your business, or purchase your products.


Content is the King.

What Kind of Content Can You Create?

Valuable and useful content. Content that answers the burning questions on your prospect's mind. Content that provides a solution, or the next step to take.

The internet is built on content. The more of it you have, the bigger your reach, and the more of a stake you can claim online.

Stories

Blog Posts

Live Feeds

Articles

Infographics

Emails

Messeges

All of the above are examples of content that attracts leads to you. The more consistent you are with your content marketing strategy, the faster and wider your business will grow. Period!

Do's & Don'ts of Content Marketing

What Your Content SHOULD Do for Your Prospects:

  • Show who you are and what you stand for!
  • Inform and arm prospects with solid solutions to move forward toward their goals!
  • Entertain
  • Leave them wanting more and ready for the next step!
  • Promote the options to move on to the next step. a.k.a. SALE! (Use sparingly)

What Your Content SHOULD NOT Do for Your Prospects:

  • Leave them wondering who YOU are and why should they care?
  • Confuse them even more
  • Provide no immediately useful solutions to move forward
  • Bore them
  • Leave them completely satiated with no need to carry on to the next step
  • Give them no options to carry on to the next step (Sales!)



Where to Start Publishing Your Content

If you're going to create content, you have to put it somewhere that your prospects can find it, consume it, and take the next step.

This step is critical and will take a little research on your part. You need to find out where your target market hangs out! YouTube? Facebook? Instagram? LinkedIn? Twitter? All of these are valuable online spaces you can post your content to build your audience.

What we advice to the new social networkers is to have their social presence on at least 3 social media platforms simultaneously, and check which one is performing the best. 



We have a step-by-step system that shows you EXACTLY how to build your content strategy, get an unlimited amount of leads, and attract laser-targeted buyers to you 24x7. If you want to apply Content Marketing Strategy instantly into YOUR business today...

Network Marketing Skill #3: Online Networking & Engagement

If you're going to build a network marketing business online, don't forget to network for heaven's sake.

YouTube allows video comments, an ability to like a video, share a video, and even a way to message other YouTube users. Twitter has much of the same.

Facebook of course has LIKES, comments, FB LIVE, FB Groups, and even a powerful Facebook Messenger platform! 

Which means that there's a demand (almost yearning) for engagement online.

The Golden Rule of Networking

Building Know, Like, and Trust!

When you interact with people online, and you do it often, eventually you become familiar face and name to them. They begin to “know” you.

Of course the more you like their posts, add value to their posts with helpful content, or share their content with your followers... the more they begin to “like” you.

Eventually you build enough of a connection and "trust" where they may feel like they want to know more about YOU, what kind of business you're involved in, or the products you sell. Attraction marketing at it’s finest.



DIGITAL NETWORKERS CLUB PRO TIP:

The Best Place to Start Networking and Engaging Online...

Success loves speed. Therefore you want to start building a targeted audience that you can engage with as quickly as possible.

The best place to start is most certainly Facebook, where there's the biggest pool of potential prospects for you to tap into.

In fact many of our top six-figure leaders and affiliates started at Facebook and never even had to expand because the audience is so vast.

Plus, Facebook alone provides many tools to easily find your best prospects, and engage directly with them. Once you start prospecting on Facebook, you may never look back!

Network Marketing Skill #4: Driving Online Traffic (Lead Generation)

Now that you understand the need for valuable content, you're going to want to get targeted visitors to it.

One of the toughest things new marketers struggle with is getting traffic to their content. In other words, you need to take people from the information highway, and steer them toward the valuable content that you create.

In a nutshell, Lead Generation is more about redirecting the flow of traffic toward your content and offers. The traffic is constantly flowing already!

The 2 Different Types of Traffic

For simplicity sake, there are 2 main types of online traffic. Each has their own more specific sources, but it all falls under either FREE or PAID traffic. Let's dive in the these below...


1. FREE TRAFFIC

Of course free is always nice. But nothing is actually free, it either takes time or money. Therefore free traffic will take longer to start flowing. However if you're just starting out and on a tight budget... it may be the way you want to go for now!

Here are a couple of effective sources of free traffic.. 

  • SEO (Search Engine Optimization)
  • You Tube Videos 
  • Social Media Posts
  • Blogs
  • Articles on Public Forums



2. PAID TRAFFIC

Paid traffic has many benefits. The main one of course being that it's much faster (sometimes even immediate!)  You can get traffic and results very quickly. It can cost you money as you test. However you can start with a small budget, test, and work your way up as your offers begin to convert.

Some Sources of Paid Traffic

  • Google Adwords
  • Bing Ads
  • Facebook Paid Ads
  • Instagram Paid Ads
  • Solo Ads
  • Etc.

Prospecting

After you've built your influence & trust among your target audience, and you've started conversation with them online; then is the time to start prospecting (actual networking starts here). 

Prospecting, when done right can bring you FREE Traffic and generate qualified leads asking you to give the business presentation! But most of the network marketers do it wrong and eventually ruin their own business due to lack of proper skills & knowledge.

Check out our step by step training on the right way to prospect on facebook to start building your audience immediately!

Network Marketing Skill #5: Follow Up & Closing

Creating content and sending traffic eventually means that you'll start getting leads. People who want more info from you, that give you permission to send that info. They’re the people most interested in YOU and what you have to offer.

Don't Blow All the Hard Work You've Done with Your Online Network Marketing!

Follow-Up and nurturing is essential or all the hard work you've done goes out the window. Many marketers get to this point and completely blow it. A huge mistake that costs money, and can cost you the successful business that you're trying to build!


Ways to Follow Up With Your Leads...

1. Voice Call / Video Call

Easiest and simple way to follow up with your prospects is by calling them over phone. Our recommended way to follow up is to have a 1 to 1 meeting over Zoom or any other online meeting app.

2. Facebook Messenger / WhatsApp Chat

Facebook Messenger Marketing is the newest revolution when it comes to following up with your leads. The FB Messenger app alone is powerful in many ways. If your prospect is connected on WhatsApp with you, this could be another option.

3. Email Marketing

Every top network marketer and business owner uses Email marketing to follow up and nurture their leads to convert them into sales finally. You can build automated email campaigns or simply broadcast  to your prospect list offering them with more value and information about your offers.


Building an Email list

Building a lead list is one of the most important things that you can when it comes to network marketing online. Your Email list is your digital asset that can give revenue over time and again. The larger your email list the stronger is your conversion ratio so keep it growing. But building your email list is a technical skill you need to learn first.

This involves creating a free offer (often called a lead magnet) that entices your prospects to leave their information (email, phone number) in order to get it.


This process is called a Marketing Funnel. 

  1. Offer a high value Lead Magnet, they can't resist to download!
  2. Capture your leads using a Landing Page 
  3. Engage and communicate with your leads through email, using an email marketing software. 
  4. Put your offer in front of your lead!
  5. Invite them to a 1 to 1 meeting where you can close the sale.
There are many types of Funnels, each has its own purpose and strategy. In our advanced training programs, we help you understand & build many types of MLM Funnel strategies 

Our Advanced training program SYSTEM SET UP CHALLENGE helps you understand & build many types of MLM Funnels that you can set up immediately and start converting high quality leads into paying customers.
