When most distributors begin marketing their MLM business online, they frequently make the mistake of using numerous strategies when trying to get their business off the ground. This frequently leads to a much larger chance of failure, or dramatically increases the time it takes for them to start seeing good results.

Why?

When you begin using numerous different strategies to market your business, you are constantly putting your time and money into various areas. As a result there is not sufficient time to master one strategy. When this occurs, you only see tiny amounts of traffic from each strategy, instead of learning how to get some huge results from one in particular. This creates a massive amount of frustration and reduces your income, which often leads a new distributor to think MLM is too difficult and quits. However just like most things in life, MLM does take some time and energy to succeed. Once you comprehend how to do it, things quickly fall into place and the results are well and truly worth it.

How Many Strategies Should Be Used?

This is a matter of personal opinion, but when you begin to market your MLM business online, I personally think you should focus on only two separate strategies. This allows you to spend more time on each one and if your not achieving success with one strategy, you can continue to get results with the other. This also allows you to continue getting leads as you study your marketing strategies and learn how to master them. This is really effective when done correctly.

How To Choose The Right Marketing Strategy For Your MLM Business.

It’s very important to choose the proper strategies when starting out. This will be greatly influenced by your finances and the amount of time you have to build your business. If you are on a small budget it is best to look at free marketing techniques such as article marketing, forum marketing, free classified ads, blogging and social media sites like Facebook, Youtube, Twitter etc. If you have a bigger budget, I would still suggest one of the free marketing strategies but also consider a paid method such as ezines, Pay-per-click or list builders.

Often distributors believe they have a disadvantage in MLM just because they have a little budget, however is not the case. They simply need to approach MLM from a different direction. The truth is, it is only an issue if you start using paid techniques. Free marketing strategies can be just as successful, if not better than paid methods. This is frequently just used as an excuse to justify why they are not having success.

If you want steady results in this industry, choose two MLM strategies that appeal to you and stick with them. Research as much information as possible and begin marketing. Only consider a third strategy when you begin getting about 20 leads a day or more from each of your strategies. The key to producing quick results in your MLM business is simple. Have a plan and stick to it.
