Internet Network Marketing

"You're wasting your time..."



"Don't buck the system..."

"Just plug into our simple duplicatable system and you'll have success. Don't waste your time with that internet junk..."

Does any of these statements sound familiar?
They probably do if you've asked your upline what their opinion is regarding internet network marketing.

In fact, depending on the company you are with, there is a possibility that you aren't even allowed to market your opportunity on the internet.

Many companies are firm on their approach to building the business using traditional network marketing techniques.

If you try to suggest anything else, you will be accused as a rebel.

Why would your upline and your network marketing company tell you internet network marketing is a complete waste of time?

Besides lack of understanding, which is usually the most common reason, unfortunately there are two other reasons why your upline and your network marketing company might not be as supportive about your desires to build the business online.

From the company standpoint prospecting online is extremely difficult to regulate.

Information travels so fast there's no way the company can effectively monitor what is being said in marketing messages.

Network marketing itself is a highly regulated industry and many of the product industries that our companies participate in are also highly regulated industries.

If a network marketing distributor begins making claims that violate regulatory guidelines, the entire company can be negatively affected by this.

This is why many of our network marketing companies frown upon internet network marketing.

Another reason unfortunately is a conflict of interest.

For some network marketing companies and even some top ranking distributors in these network marketing companies, the marketing system and the tools used for marketing is a huge profit stream for the company.

In these network marketing companies, the meetings, the trainings, the marketing tools and the conventions serve as a huge profit stream.

In some cases the money made from this system exceeds the money made from the actual business itself.

Think about it...

If you were making a six or seven figure business off meetings, trainings, tools and events, would you want your distributors to plug into a system that could theoretically eliminate the need for them to go to meetings, trainings, plug into tools and events?

Unless you are truly concerned about your distributor's success, the answer is absolutely not!

Even if those distributors have success with this system, you are going to take a huge cut in income from the organization not supporting the system.

The fact of the matter is internet network marketing isn't a waste of time at all.

There are numerous success stories of distributors who struggled in the industry having little to no success at all following the traditional system of network marketing.

However, once they learned the strategies and techniques of internet network marketing, they were able to turn it all around.

You could be the next success story!

To be fair to some of the leaders, there are some legitimate concerns about internet network marketing.

For instance, many people mistakenly believe that with internet network marketing you will never have to talk to another prospect again and your internet system will recruit everyone for you.

This is a false misconception.

You will still have to talk to prospects and you will still have to work the numbers.

The difference is that you will be dealing with more serious prospects because your internet network marketing system will pre-qualify the prospects for you.

The other concern you need to watch out for as well is that prospecting on the internet can be a big waste of time if you don't know what you are doing.

Too many distributors work on low payoff activities on the internet like playing with their web site background and arguing on message boards all day.

If you want to be successful in internet network marketing, you need to spend the majority of your time actually getting your marketing message in as many locations and formats as possible and calling the prospects your system qualifies for you to gauge their interest level.

Otherwise, you will prove your upline and company right if they are currently unsupportive of the internet network marketing method.
