Well, in a nutshell…YES!

Actually, I ran across this in my emails and nearly deleted it. I have an itchy trigger finger and if emails don’t grab my attention in less than a second they get flushed!

Anyways, this email did and it’s funny because I thought exactly what I mentioned above…”oh no…”; but read it anyway. So I thought how do I publish this for you without just posting someone else’s email? Well, I found the original post and it was first publish just under a year ago.

It’s aimed at home business owners and one of the things I’ve found as an internet network marketer which I got on top of very early is that working alone from home might sound great, but very few people can do it. Why? Because they don’t have supervision; there’s no one to keep them honest and most will soon start to get slack and make excuses for why they can’t do something.

Folks, it’s not easy working from home alone and that’s why you need to keep reading these “oh no, not another how to stay on track with your home business” type articles.

If you have got off track then this will be the best five minutes you spend in front of your computer today. I guarantee it.

I can’t tell you how important this is. If you did the work to create a workable plan like I suggested, just follow it! For example, let’s say you decided that you would use article marketing to get free visitors for your site. Your plan was to write one new article every other day, so you could add a few new ones per week. You’d be surprised at how few people will actually stick to a plan like that.

It’s a reasonable plan, and when you think about it, it’s not so hard to get it done. But most people give up after a month (not sure why that’s such a common time period, but it is).Here’s a practical way to stick to your plan. There are two steps. The first step is deciding that you WILL do it.

I know that sounds insane, since your problem might be that you’re not doing it. But listen, you have to lay down the law for yourself. Tell yourself that your future depends on sticking to your plan. Then refuse to compromise on it.The next step is to kill the one thing that gets you off track the most…procrastination…..

If you said yes then welcome to the club. It’s one of the spin-offs of becoming an internet network marketer. In fact, It’s like a disease but the good news is, it’s not terminal. You can beat it and beat it easily.

Don’t worry, I’ve been there and gone through all the procrastination trials and tribulations. We recently asked…how do you make money in network marketing and the simple answer is through sponsoring and creating product volume.

But unless you can start to focus on the right things again then you will stay in this information overload rut and it will totally consume you.

I’ve got some tips to start breaking out and getting back to making money with MLM. Some of these may shock you and upset some of the guru types but believe me, it needs to be done.

1. First thing you need to do is unsubscribe from most of the marketing lists you are on. Yes, some of the gurus suggest signing onto these lists but they are on top of their game and can afford the time to spend going through this stuff. You don’t.

2. Think back to what it was that got you interested in internet network marketing and focus back on that. If it was the Renegade system them focus on it. If it was Ty Tribble’s MLM Blog Secrets course then focus on it. If you are writing articles for syndication then focus on it. You get the picture.

3. Once you have everything in order you need to start getting to work. Your business is at a delicate stage. You don’t have a big downline yet and things will fall apart if you start to neglect what’s important in it.

Okay, that was a little drastic wasn’t it but believe me, it needs to be done. Unless you have the courage to dump dead wood, stuff that is crippling your focus and preventing you from doing the real things that make money in MLM, then it will be a waste of time continuing.

In this article, we will briefly touch on those three success points and all I can say is, if you start implementing these attraction marketing principles in your business today then you will see results.

Marketing System

One of the biggest mistakes we see people make is spreading themselves thin. You see it in everyday life and yes, I’ve been guilty of it too. That is, trying to be a “jack of all trades.” Trying to be all things to all people.

The truth is, the human psyche is not really designed to be able to focus on several things at one time and what this causes things like paralysis analysis. It puts you in a place where you’re wasting time on unimportant tasks and letting the important tasks go unattended.

As an internet network marketer, concentrate on one or two areas of marketing. Either be the article marketer, the blogging person, the web 2 expert but avoid trying to be seen as the expert in all facets of marketing.

Your Message

Very important. Your message says a lot about you. If you are screaming in your marketing messages “sales pitch, sales pitch” then it may be time to re-think your strategy. If this is you then guess what…you are screaming the same message as 95% of internet network marketers.

Try to give value in your content. Forget the sales pitch for now. This is one of the keys to the attraction marketing formula. Give as much useful information away and watch the attraction process kick into gear.

Consistency

Another biggie! Be consistent in what you do everyday. Try and do something on a daily basis that will move your business forward no matter how small it may be.

Those who succeed work on the principle of cause and effect. What they do today may not pay off the next day but it will pay off eventually. Can you imagine the kind of leverage and momentum you can get going when all the little things you do start paying off.

It will be like facing a 50 foot torrent coming at you when it finally breaks it’s banks. Be consistent. Don’t do something today and then wait a month. This won’t get you results. The attraction marketing formula is a pretty simple one when broken down into chunks.

Don’t forget to grab Ann Sieg’s new blueprint The Attraction Marketer’s Manifesto. It’s free but packs another great punch and will teach you attraction marketing inside out.

Quite simply, with the economy going through a huge stutter at the moment the opportunity has never been better for those running a home business to prosper. Look back through history and recognize when fortunes have been made.  While most are crying lost jobs and bad times the truth is, this time around, the big factor at play is the internet.

Online Sales To Rise Despite The Recession

For those in a network marketing business for example, running an internet network marketing business makes good sense. Online sales is tipped to continue to grow during 2009 by more than 10 per cent. This means while people are tightening their belts offline, the internet is again proving it is an economy all on it’s own.

And for those of you looking for prospects now is the time to act. The Renegade Network Marketer, Ann Sieg has paved the way for network marketers to get online and re-invigorate their prospect lists. If you follow this classic blueprint then you’ll learn that by putting your opportunity in front of those searching for it then magic happens. And the internet is a perfect vehicle for you to be able to do this.

The other factor is the current recession where in the United States alone, more than 2.5 million people have lost their jobs just in the past 12 months. That’s massive but instead of joining the naysayers preaching doom and gloom, you should be rubbing your hands with glee because that equates to a huge injection of people looking for ways to make an income.

Remember, as an internet network marketer you are a solutions provider and believe me, people are going online looking for solutions to their current woes. If you don’t know how to apply the internet factor to your network marketing then you really need to take a look at Sieg’s Renegade system. It could be the best investment in your future and the future of those who join you in business in the coming months, that you’ll ever make.

Perhaps the question that needs to be asked is how can branding help you in your business? Well, in a nutshell, it will immediately set you apart from the majority of internet network marketers out there trying to establish some presence in the market and attracting prospects into their business funnel.

You see, those using company brands to push their message out to prospects are on the back foot from the start. Why? Because they are basically doing exactly the same thing as everyone else.

Same websites, same logos same message. Why would a prospect choose you over someone else delivering the same message? In other words, unless you are giving the prospect something different to everyone else then you will find it tough to add new people to your business downline.

Branding starts with you. Who are you and what can you do to help a prospect move forward in their quest to move their own business forward. As an example, if you are a content specialist then use this as your hook. You could promote yourself as “Joe Smith – Content Creator” and help your prospects to promote their businesses using the power of article marketing.

Internet network marketing is such that content is vital as a tool to attract prospects. Setting up a website or a blog for example and providing useful business building articles your prospects can use in their own business building efforts. By setting up your own web properties instead of company generated sites means you are well ahead of your competitors.

It’s a powerful branding tactic and instead of being seen as just another internet network marketer pushing the same message, you are giving prospects something different which means they will immediately concentrate on what it is you’re offering instead of what it is you’re selling.

The truth is, it’s not a new concept but it wasn’t until Ann Sieg emerged with her Renegade training system that it started to become a serious technique with network marketers and those who have embraced it are reaping the rewards. Those rewards center around a consistent flow of prospects in their business funnel and many report accelerated growth in their businesses.

Basically, attraction marketing dispenses with the old school methods of approaching anyone who is fair game to look at a business opportunity and instead, it works on the principle that prospects actually seek you out and ask you about your business.

If that’s a foreign concept to you then be rest assured it’s real and it can be achieved. Attraction marketing is based around placing your message in front of those people who actually want to hear it. In other words, you target prospects looking for a home business opportunity and with the use of the internet as a lead generation vehicle, this has become a reality.

Using the powerful reach and leverage of the internet, an internet network marketer can build a group of web properties offering educational and training material to readers, promote these web properties targeting a series of keywords and attracting traffic to these sites.

If the information is of enough value to visitors there’s every chance they will opt in to a webmaster’s list and by offering them something of value and free such as a free report with information they can immediately use, suddenly the pre-sell process begins to kick in and instead of people being attracted to an opportunity, you become the center of their attention.

And that’s when the magic will begin to happen because it’s you and your message they are viewing as valuable and it’s you they will likely want to join in business because they see you as the person that can give them the how to and reach their goals.

If this all sounds like “pie in the sky” thinking just ask yourself if you’re still using old prospecting methods whether you’re experiencing the kind of success you anticipated.
