There are over 500 sites on the Net where you can post free classified ads. To be effective, you must post at least ten ads each and every day on different sites.
If you have the time, inclination and skill, creating a newsletter is a very efficient way of prospecting. You can start a target email list going by adding a form to your web site where people can sign up for your newsletter, or by buying an opt-in mail list and offering a free subscription.
Hold a prize drawing or contest - people love anything that's free and you will get them to visit your web site if you publicize your contest widely.
AOL, ICQ, Internet Phone and other live chat functions offer the opportunity to chat live with strangers. Some of these functions, AOL for example, have a directory listing people's interests. From that you can select people who are involved in network marketing. Choose someone online at that moment and "IM" him, that is, send the person an Instant Message and start a chat. To do this effectively, first ask questions about his company and why he or she chose it. Don't start out talking about your company! As is true in message boards, first establish a relationship with the potential prospect before you pitch him or her on your business. Plan, persistence and patience!
Commitment to a plan and perseverance will reward you with success! The final objective of your Net campaign is product sales and new distributors. You want to attract qualified prospects, not droves of disinterested people.
Design your marketing campaign and materials carefully. Write out a plan listing those activities you have chosen, and include how many hours per week you can devote to promoting your business online. This is VERY important because no plan is a plan to fail. It is a good intention but poor execution. If you really want to market on the Net, your efforts will bear fruit only if they are consistent and repeated. This means a written plan of action, a daily and weekly time commitment and an advertising budget.
Commitment means carrying out your campaign on all levels. Just placing classifieds or simply listing your web site with the search engines won't get you tens of eager new customers or distributors. But the total of all activities will bring you an abundance of new prospects.
