Well firstly let me say that most of the gurus with big lists have been building their lists for a long time. I have often read Ann Sieg stating that her message is going out to several hundred thousand people. Now that would be nice wouldn’t it but you have to remember, she has been building her list for several years.

This email will be split into two parts because it’s important to describe the benefits of building an opt in list firstly and why you need to build one. We’ll also give you the main thing subscribers want from you to get on your list. The second email will be about creating a product…what you need to entice people with to get on you list in the first place.

Why You Need To Create An Opt In List?

It’s very simple, with a list you could get all your sites de-listed by Google yet while it would affect some of your income stream, with an opt in list, you have a resource that will continue to make you money. It’s like working for a company and having your own band of loyal subscribers; if you left that company your salary would stop but you still have your subscriber list to market to.

Now don’t get the idea that just because you have a subscriber list that you can inundate them with marketing offers. Do that and they’ll quickly unsubscribe. You need to give them what they want. They obviously opted in to your list because of the value they saw in what you were giving away. You were potentially or had potentially the solution to their problem.

Can you see where we are heading here?

Give people what they want and they will be loyal to you for as long as you maintain an opt in list.

Let’s take Ann Sieg and the Renegade system as an example. Ann has continued provided value to her readers and it started with her classic free report The 7 Great Lies Of Network Marketing. That report was easily a $39 value but it was given away free and in exchange, people gave Ann their email address.

But she didn’t stop there. More free training coupled with paid products and her growing list soon came to trust her. That’s how it works. When people trust you and you develop a strong relationship with them you can “write your own ticket.”

But what do you give people in the first place if you are new to internet network marketing and don’t have a product? We’ll take a look at this in our second part of this series, how to create opt in lists.

The majority of people I speak with on a daily basis understand the power of both systems to attract people into their prospect funnel but many simply get stuck when they are there and how to go to the next step. Do you simply contact them and ask them to join your opportunity? No you don’t.

Think how they got there in the first place. Something attracted them and it’s more than likely the message they read, saw or heard. You more than likely gave them something of value. Those who are successful at internet network marketing think outside the box and get it right away. The following four approaches to your list about your primary business will make a huge difference to how quickly you develop the relationship you want with your list prospects.

#1.. Give or sell your prospects something but don’t leave them high and dry. In other words, thinking outside the box means following up with them soon after to offer your help in applying what you gave them or sold them. You always want to look for ways to connect with your list.

#2.. At least two thirds of the people you sign up through Renegade and Ty Tribble’s blog training will have a primary opportunity. One third won’t. Let your list know these numbers. You don’t want to drag people away from their main business. You want to appeal to those still looking for a business. Offer them something. When I first started with Renegade I was offered a one on one call with my sponsor. It impressed me greatly.

#3.. Be honest with your prospects. Let them know up front you don’t want to be dragging them away from their primary business. Tell them the reason you are so accessible is that you obviously want to attract people into your business but only those looking. You are putting yourself out there to help anyone ready to commit to help them achieve their goals.

#4.. Thinking further out the box, offer to work with three people one-on-one. Let your list know this is “in the trenches” stuff and you want serious people only. Also point out it’s just for those looking for primary business opportunity. This is a great way to connect with prospects on your list who need guidance those who take you up on your offer will be a strong chance of joining your primary business.

MLM Blog Secrets - Step-By-Step Training On How To Generate Unlimited MLM Leads With A Blog.

It’s a plague that’s filtered through the MLM online world in the past 18 months. It’s the #1 problem for MLM bloggers. Using free blogging services and then seeing your good work washed down the drain.

How do I know? Well, I get emails every day from readers who are almost in tears because Blogger, WordPress or Squidoo, just to name three, shut down their accounts because they violated their policies. What are their policies? Basically MLM is grouped into that despicable category of spam that includes illegal activities.

MLM? An illegal activity? Are you serious? Hasn’t MLM been around since the mid fifties as a legitimate business that does over nine figures a year?

So, the #1 problem for MLMers getting a foothold in the blogging world is using these services, putting in a ton of hard work providing legitimate quality content and then without any notice most times, having their good work flushed down the drain.

While many consider me as a successful blogger, I have been slapped silly with these policies too and it didn’t take me long to learn that unless you are creating your own real estate on your own domain in your own hosting account you don’t stand a “chance in hades” of seeing your work stand the test of time.

For example, I had a Squidoo lens called Network Marketing Lead. It was used as an example of how to promote and brand yourself online in many Renegade Professional webinars back in the early days. It was pure information. Well, Squidoo wielded the axe last year and after three years of dominating it’s keyword terms with several page one rankings, it disappeared.

So if you are thinking of going down the free blogging route then think again. If you talk MLM then you are going to cop the wrath of their administrators at some stage. It’s only a matter of when.

The good news is, creating your own piece of real estate that you own and can include whatever you want is not that difficult once you know.

Ty Tribble has been doing it for years and walking the talk. He’s extremely successful at it. Why not learn from the best and watch over his shoulder as he takes you through the A to Z of MLM blogging with his MLM Blog Secrets course. It will be the best investment in your business you make this year.

Now please note that this is a review so click here if you want to visit the MLM Blog Secrets website.

What many don’t realize is that Ty is basically a network marketer and network marketers don’t prospect online. Try telling Ty Tribble that! To actually make the top 100 list when there are millions upon millions of blogs filtering through the internet and growing in numbers every day is an extraordinary achievement. But consider this…he’s a network marketer and network marketers don’t have a clue when it comes to prospecting online.

Did I just mention that?

So how does he do it? How does he manage to get his blog so widely read that it’s like a prospecting magnet on steroids? What does he do and know that the majority of MLMers trying to attract qualified leads online don’t? Here’s what you need to know. Ty Tribble has worked out the two most important elements of creating a successful blog. Apply these today and you will suddenly put yourself ahead of 95% of MLMers out there trying to figure out the blogging for prospects puzzle.

What Are the two MLM blog secrets? Value and Trust.

Add value to your blog and you will develop a trusting audience. And as you know if you’ve done any training with the Renegade system, is that a trusting audience is like “fish jumping into a boat” or prospects lining up to join your primary business. It’s the ultimate in lead generation where rejection becomes a thing of the past. Isn’t that what all network marketers want?

Ty Tribble has created the most anticipated training course of 2010 in MLM Blog Secrets and it doesn’t matter if you’re a novice online or an expert – learning from the best and most successful people in any given niche is the only way to break through limitations and move forward. Click here and get some of the best blog success training you’ll ever get from Ty and start attracting qualified leads to your primary business in droves.

Download The 7 Great Lies Of Network Marketing For Free

There’s little doubt The 7 Great Lies Of Network Marketing is the most controversial book written in network marketing. Ann Sieg must have been having a few doubts when she sat down and penned it.

Surely she would have realized that she would upset some high profile folks within the industry. Upset is really an understatement. You see, The 7 Great Lies exposed a problem within network marketing too many were afraid to admit.

Even as a seasoned network marketer, I cringe when I see the title because like it or not, I will defend it as the best opportunity still available to people to achieve some financial stability in their lives and yes, even in today’s tough economic climate.

Sieg doesn’t mince words in The 7 Great Lies. Don’t worry, she’s not anti-network marketing, she’s just anti the way prospecting has been done and is still being done in the industry. The old school methods such as the three foot rule come in for some particular attention.

Sieg says she needed to write the book after becoming fed up with the way her business was progressing. You’ve got to realize we are talking about a very seasoned network marketer here who has gone through the mill as far as rejection is concerned yet she still loves the industry.

She wrote the book for those network marketers trying hard to get their business “off the batting plate.” And you know, that’s more than 95% of people running an MLM business. Does that shock you?

Was Ann Sieg On Angry Pills?

Ann Sieg must have been on some angry pills at the time because when you’re reading the 7 Great Lies Of Network Marketing you can almost feel her frustration. You immediately identify yourself as the person in the story. Can you identify with setting up appointments after appointments, meeting after meeting and being told by your upline “don’t worry, it will happen soon?”

But after a couple of years of struggling to add to the one person you sponsored, you are still in debt and making no impression. This is the story for the majority of people in network marketing. And don’t get me wrong, I love the industry and what it’s done for me but I know there is something drastically wrong when more than 90% of people are not making it even to first base.

The 7 Great Lies Of Network Marketing was written for a reason…Sieg needed to get some frustration off her chest. But more importantly, she needed to get the attention of the network marketers out there being lied too.

Why?

Well, in a nutshell, The Renegade Network Marketer, the most important book ever written in network marketing. Sieg need to get people’s attention that there is a better alternative to the 3 foot rule and the constant harassing of family and friends.

The 7 Great Lies Of Network Marketing is a free report which will shock and challenge your beliefs about MLM. Click here to get your copy.

Nothing new there. It’s part of growing an at home business 101.

So what am I getting at? Here it is in a nutshell. Many would be network marketers sabotage their chances of success because they “fall in love” with the superstars. It doesn’t matter what company you’re in, there are those who are held up high on a pedestal and revered and that’s okay, but to succeed in any home business, one must be able to use this as inspiration to move their business forward.

Are You In Love With Your Upline?

The truth is, many don’t and virtually become groupies in a sense to a successful network marketer. We could sit here for hours reeling off a list of stars, heck, in my business alone we have some of the most successful networkers of all time. But do I worship them? No. Do I respect them. Yes.

With all due respect, the Renegade Network Marketer Ann Sieg is often revered more than respected and while the adulation is great, I’m sure Sieg would rather people focus on their own business goals rather than herself.

Legendary network marketer Randy Gage once said…”I will not be anybody’s guru.” He explained in a prosperity series he created that too many networkers focus on the achievements of the individual and get caught up in trance like state rather than using this person’s achievements as a source of inspiration to grow their business.

And this is where you need to draw the line if you fall in this category. The superstars achieved success because of a number of reasons with perseverance high on the list. The reason companies use them is as motivation for their reps. When you listen to these people speak you are looking for the gold nuggets that helped them grow their business. After they’re finished, let them go.

Always remember, the company you’re with is the vehicle you’re using to create the type of financial security you want. When you started your network marketing home business, you started with an end goal. Use the “gurus” for inspiration but don’t worship them.

The reality is, they simply followed the core principles of growing a home business and stuck at it to become successful. Always remember this piece of at home business advice…grow the business for you, not the gurus.

Today’s network marketing tip will focus on what real action really is. If you get anything out of today’s post it’s that action can often come disguised in several forms but there really is only one type of action which counts – that which directly affects the bottom line in your business.

So my question to you is – are you a network marketer yet? You see, simply joining a business and then tip toeing around what really counts and that’s putting people in your business, does not mean you have a home business.

In other words, there is a difference between being a consumer of information and a real, honest to goodness business builder. And the truth is, most people fall into the category of being consumers of information.

Network Marketing Tip

This problem has become particularly evident in the internet network marketing arena. Too many people are losing focus and going after the so called quick fix solutions. When you come online for the first time it’s almost like traveling than the famous Vegas strip for the first time. The bright lights and the opportunities are everywhere.

There are so many make money fast promises and latest lead generation tactics screaming at you that it’s at first like being a kid in a candy store…you want it all. But the truth is, it’s just a distraction and most fall for it. The result is, several months down the track their credit cards are looking bruised and battered with nothing to show for the money they’ve spent. Don’t worry, I’ve been there.

The key is focus. We’ve spoken about it many times on this site. Find a learning vehicle and stick to it. What happens when you start buying every solution-laded promise that is being offered is you end up with a hard drive full of stuff you never use. It just sits there because when you’ve bought one, another surfaces the next day and you buy that too. It’s a vicious cycle and you need to get off it.

So after going online looking for solutions to building your network marketing business you end up becoming a consumer – a consumer of products you don’t need. And it’s easy to get caught up in a false impression that you’re taking action. But it’s false action.

The solution?

Find an environment you can focus your energy on such as Renegade Professional. Get back to the basics of what it really takes to build a network marketing business…creating relationships. If your struggling with focus then go back and read this post on a book which helped me get it back when I was on the “Vegas syndrome” treadmill.

We’ll talk more on focus issues and solutions in upcoming posts.

But if you are still thinking long and hard about it especially during these first seven days of launch and wondering whether it’s for you then the answer is simply…”I don’t know.”

This is part of being in business for yourself. Deciding what’s good for you and your business and what’s not. As a mentor in several forums, one thing that continually amazes is seeing the number of people who come to the forum during a major product launch and ask…”Should I buy this product.”

The response is “Will the product help you move forward in your business or will it just sit on your hard drive and never to see the light of day.”

Renegade Breakthrough Is Not For You

It’s the same with Renegade Breakthrough. You need to decide what it is you want with your business. If you don’t mind moving along slowly or are not really a business builder, then the Breakthrough Mentoring program is not for you. Shelling out a couple of grand for a program and not using it is crazy.

Where are you at in your business? Are you just beginning…have you been trying for some time to build it yet it’s still pretty stagnant, or have you hit a level of success yet can’t seem to take it to the next level? Each one of these scenarios is familiar in network marketing.

This is the time you need to choose the appropriate tools and material that will either bust through the initial learning curve, teach you how to attract serious prospects and generate the type of JV partners and help that will take a business from doing okay to doing extraordinarily well.

In other words the decision to choose tools and training material should relate to your level of commitment and the stage of your learning curve.

Mike Klingler summed it up best when he said…”Renegade Professional gets you set up in your marketing to generate leads, start monetizing and to get a business up and running online to brand yourself and attract business.  Adding Renegade Breakthrough Mentoring to this will accelerate everything you have going on and that you move into by increasing your Influence Factor, which attracts others to you who have a higher Influence Factor.”

Okay, that may be too colorful a description but here’s the fact – Renegade Breakthrough Mentoring is the brainchild of that dynamic duo, Ann Sieg and Mike Klingler. It was born out of need to take Renegade Professional members to another level in their training.

Renegade Professional Test Group

Renegade Professional launched in April and it’s available membership offerings sold out in a couple of days. Sieg and Klingler spent months preparing for the launch but they didn’t just want a basic attraction marketing training base. They wanted to offer something more.

Do you ever wonder how some of the big companies are able to produce so much profit despite an ailing economy? Why are some companies prospering in tough times? For example, did you know McDonalds has made nearly ten figures in profit for the first quarter of this year?

The secret lies in an “under the radar” sales tactic that very few know or even understand. It has nothing to do with food. It’s all about leveraging. But yes, you know about network marketing and leveraging. It’s one of the first things we are told when serenaded about a business.

Well Sieg and Klingler have isolated this tactic and bundled it up into a training course and you now have the opportunity to learn how to apply it to your business. Here’s a clue…Sieg and Klingler are living proof of just how powerful this is.

This Renegade Breakthrough Mentoring link will go live Monday May 18th. It’s currently password protected but after Monday, you won’t need a password.

Does this mean it lacks quality? Believe that at your own risk. Ann sent me a copy of the book in physical form recently and after reading it my first question was how much will this cost and will you make it affordable enough for network marketers to afford it.

I was thinking after I read it that we would be looking at somewhere around the $100 mark. Do you think I was floored when she announced that it was going to be made available for free. You heard right…free.

Ann felt the new Attraction Marketing Manifesto needed to be written simply because she felt there were some missing pieces to the attraction marketing blueprint she outlaid in The Renegade Network Marketer.

There were many inexperienced networkers to the online vehicle who embraced the blueprint but really didn’t have the marketing or technical know how to implement it. Well, that’s going to change.

Sieg is working on a new training project which is just about ready to release to the network marketing world and is being described as the online network marketing event of the year.

The video below highlights some of the gems in the new book and be sure to get on the earlybird notification list to grab a free copy of the Attraction Marketing Manifesto download when it’s released.
