Communication with your downline is very important in network marketing. Your downline is the lifeline to your business. Communicating with the very people who will build your business is essential.
In today's world there are so many options for keeping in touch with and communicating with your downline. I'd like to share some communication ideas with you:
1. Create either a message board or a yahoo group. Both of these allow you to post regular messages and keep your team updated. It's also a wonderful way for you to be able to speak to your entire group all at the same time. Information such as how to place an order or where to call for help can be stored. What I've done in the past is to create a favorite links sheet that I can give to new distributors. This favorite links sheet has the basics such as how to place an order and how to hold a fundraiser.

4. Put together a newsletter. My own upline sends out a once a week newsletter with both company information and also group recognition.

As your own team grows and they begin to branch out, they too can start a free message group or create a free account on a social network. I would absolutely encourage your team to stick with your group until such time they feel they are ready to branch out completely. Once they do branch out, it's my suggestion that you remain a member of any group they create.
I'm also a fan of conference calling. There are several conference call systems out there. Some are free and others charge a fee. You can use conference calling to share new company information, to offer group training and even to host prospective distributor question and answer sessions.
