subject: How To Produce Network Marketing Leads With Linkined [print this page] Assuming you are in a situation similar to where we were initially, It was hard to generate MLM leads. Its not like we do not know how or where to obtain these leads. The price of these leads were high. We came online. In a short period of time, we started producing around 30 free MLM leads. Assuming you are talking to that many people daily, what difference do you think that will make in your primary business? One of the tools or website that we used was Linkedin.
Linkedin is a social network packed with professionals. This social media website is crammed with majority of working people. You have CEO, celebrities, teachers, recruiters, scientist all on Linkedin. From the professionalism stand point, these are the population that you want in your MLM Network Marketing business. The last people that you want in your business are the idle people. Otherwise, you would be running an Adult day care center.
Your credibility is enormously important on Linkedin when talking about using Linkedin to generate free of charge MLM leads. These are the "9- 5" fill with. They are the corporate people. You should at least appear that you are worthy of their time.
Don't operate Linkedin as a sales funnel. When you are on twitter, you can sell your business opportunity. On Facebook, you can sell your product or business opportunity. Doing this will yield you no result.. But on Linkedin, this is a "No No". Spend time in educating people on Linkedin.
Do not be in a hurry when you are completing your profile. The little stuff that do not matter on other social media site do matter on Linkedin. I would suggest that you stay away from words like "lol", "smh". You can use these abbreviations on Facebook , twitter, and Myspace. But they will no do you any good on Linkedin. Your picture is also very important.. Do no put up a picture of you dancing in a club. Use a well taken picture. Perception carries a lot of weight on Linkedin.
Make sure you join targeted groups. Look up business related groups. Join Targeted groups. Do not join a farmers' group. I know you get my point. That will not do you any good. Look up groups for business saggy people and join it. Join groups of other MLM companies there and educate them. You also want to join groups that has many members.
With more knowledge on the using Linkedin, you would have to join groups and place educating and enlightening contents on the groups' wall. Your verbal communication on these walls is very significant. Pay attention to your grammar as much as you can. Again, it goes back to the type of people that will be reading the content that you post on the walls. If you are wondering what you should write about; then you need to educate yourself. You should read books and listen to audio books. Use Google to educate yourself on important topics like MLM prospecting, MLM training etc. EDUCATE YOURSELF and teach whatever you have learned to others.
Recommendations is also significant on Linkedin. You need at least 3 to 5 recommendations on Linkedin. Ideally you would want the top earners of any MLM business to recommend you.But that would take forever to happen. Contact any person (they could be your downline) that would recommend you. This is about getting validated by a 3rd party, This is the same thing as the traditional three way call prospecting. The interesting part is as soon as people start benefiting from you posts, they will recommend you for others. So there is a viral effect here.
You should understand by now that this is about branding you as leader. People pitch their enterprise to me everytime on facebook and Twitter. I usually delete them as soon as I open them. STOP PITCHING YOUR BUSINESS TO OTHER PEOPLE. ADD VALUE TO PEOPLE. Educate them regularly and train them for free. They will join your primary business.
