subject: Mlm Software: Out-of-the-box Vs. Custom [print this page] If youre the owner or manager of a direct sales business, then youre likely using or thinking of using multi level marketing software to managing the daily operating activities. Sometimes it can be hard to choose between the different types of software, but for the purpose of this argument, were comparing the differences between out-of-the-box solutions versus those that are highly customizable.
An out-of-the-box MLM software solution is better than nothing at all. However, it can be limiting in the activities that you perform. After all, no two businesses are alike, so why should you settle for a cookie-cutter product? Custom MLM software programs allow you the freedom to customize the face of your business. From self-replicating websites to marketing materials, theres a level of consistency, and also room for you to put your own stamp on collateral. For example, distributors websites can show design and layout uniformity, but also have a section for region or time specific promotions and incentives.
MLM software also gives you the freedom to run different types of reporting. From sales history to inventory tracking, you can do it all with just a few clicks of a mouse. And best of all, most MLM software solutions are web based, meaning no technical programming on your end.
