Don't Give Up!
I know the feeling but building a business online doesn't have to be this way.
Find out how to truly enjoy building your own business, under a palm tree if you like!
How To Move Your Office To The Beach!
How To Build A Multi-Level Marketing Machine Online
First, You Will Need To Build A Blog (Nickname for Web Log)
The blog you are reading now is generic. What I mean is, this blog is not directly related to my Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) business.
You are inside one of my blogs that will train you to build your own MLM online. Internet MLM Now will help you with internet MLM training.
Network Marketing Online
Building a network marketing business on the internet does not happen overnight so don't let the name Internet MLM Now fool you.
It takes work and it takes time but I can tell you it is soooo much more fun than the work and time you are taking now to build your business offline.
Think of internet MLM business-building as not just a home-based business because with Internet MLM Now your "home" office can be anywhere!
When you build an internet MLM, your business office is virtual - all you need is the internet. A laptop, a PC or Mac and your are in your office, whether you are at home, at a coffee shop or at the beach!
Blogging For Business
The reason the first thing you will need to build is a blog is because it's basically your "home" office. When you are in business for yourself, it's really nice to have a great office where you can invite people in. It needs to be attractive, a nice place to visit with you about your business.
So your blog should be very inviting, very comfortable, where people can get to know you.
For me, I love the idea of having my office on a beach under a palm tree or on a ship, sailing the ocean. So I want you to think about that - blogging for business should be as inviting as asking someone to go sailing with you. I have a quick video for you as you start to think about your blog as a boat...
This brief video will help you get a feel for the BIG picture of how blogging for business works. Internet MLM and attraction marketing techniques are described in the video as I explain how your blog is the hub of your marketing machine.
Said another way, your blog is the center of your internet multi-level marketing machine.
But remember, your blog is not where you sell your MLM. That's your "sales funnel."
Your blog is where you sell yourself...

Will the New FTC Rule Effect Your Marketing? Full Length Webinar Replay
7 CUSTOMER FRIENDLY TECHNIQUES
Whether your business is online or off, you are probably concerned about the new Federal Trade Commission (FTC) ruling on marketing and advertising effective December 1, 2009. This full length webinar replay is packed full of marketing techniques that will help you focus on the spirit of the law. Don't shrink back - grow your business!
The FTC sees their job as comsumer protector, right? So these customer friendly marketing tips are what I would guess the FTC would also consider friendly.
Many internet marketers are so afraid of doing the wrong thing that they are not doing the right thing!
- - and that is what exactly?? After watching this webinar, I believe the right thing is as it has always been - we should be taking care of business by taking good care of our customers.
So what should you know about the new FTC Rules? That is such a good question and not a question to leave unanswered. Here are some resources for you. If you click on the image below, it will take you to more information about these resource websites. 
Here's another one -
The FTC Update – In Plain English
But for now, let's be different...
Instead of freaking out, in a systematic way, start reading through your web of content - your sales pages, your landing pages, your blog posts, articles, and advertisements. Are you taking good care of your customers? Is there any hint of over-promising what you can not deliver? Is there any hint of what could be construed as false claims?
That's one thing to do over the next 6 months - comb through all your stuff to make sure it is truly customer friendly and not deceiving. But don't stop marketing. People need what you have to offer.
It's all about focus. It isn't all about the tons of changes that you might have to make (you will have to make some changes!) but it's more about "alternative solutions" that will improve your marketing, techniques that build deserved trust.
Customer Friendly Techniques That Build Trust
So do not loose your focus. So many marketers see the new FTC rules as a problem, focusing on how to "get around" this huge change. Instead, think about these customer friendly techniques from Ann Sieg and David Garfinkel, two highly respected people in the marketing industry. Here's what Ann Sieg had to say after the webinar:
"...we also gave some unique easy to use strategies to strengthen your marketing without worrying about the FTC so much."
Enjoy the webinar! Just click below...
- Values - give stories about how your affiliate program lines up with your values and your identity. For example, some people call me for information about my affiliate programs, or about my internet marketing business, etc. and the thing that some say is
"I know from what I see online that you confess to be a Christian. Me too!"
In other words, they identify with me and want to talk business with me.
Why? Because some of my online articles are places where I purpose to provide a snapshot into what my "value proposition" actually is. I am deliberately sharing my values. I might summarize the benefits of something I want people to buy and/or join, as it relates to my values or my identity. Stuff I care about...
Ann Sieg's example of picking a vacation spot in Eurika Springs is such a good example.
Another great example if my husband's love of world class cars.
Market with understanding, with compassion, with empathy. When you remember or can imagine how it feels to not know how to do something, focus on that without judgement, convey that your prospect is safe from judgement with you. There's no way to construe that type of understanding in marketing as anything that is fraud or misleading. It is powerful marketing and customer friendly marketing.
Charles Heflin has a 3 E's test for web content. Make sure your online content is at least worthy to be called one or more of these 3 E's:
Your Special Report Is Ready!
- educational
- enlightening
- entertaining
Ann Sieg quoted David Garfinkel, "Ann, in this way, we can help more people." The late Jim Rhon said "Service to many leads to greatness."
If you FOCUS on how to genuinely serve more and more people, and NOT back up because of these new rules, then your customers will benefit. There are many people who need what you have to offer. Move forward, taking more and more action toward helping people who need the products and services that you can provide for them. Go ahead and write your next sales letter, create your next lead capture page. Just remember the tips that David Garfinkel, a world class copywriter uses...
What Was David Garfinkel's Crash Course On Copywriting Like?
I took David's Garfinkel's crash course. I have the 99 templates, the special report, the 6 one hour long sessions, from a wonderful caring man that has had 20 years of successful copywriting in his career and he's really just getting started because he's still young, still coming up with sales letters that he is paid a huge amount of money for because the buyer knows how much money Garfinkel's words can make for the business.
At the very least, get this report...

Content Syndication SEO
Content Syndication SEO is what some call SMO - social media optimization. The theory is that search engines are now quite impressed with social proof, meaning:
- Real people are bookmarking your content
- Real people are making comments on your articles
- Real people are syndicating your online work
When search engines see the above, it's no longer a theory. It's the real deal. Google will favor SMO and put the article with social SEO ahead of those with just good technical SEO.
SEO 1.0 vs. SEO 2.0
Social Media SEO has been called the second generation of search engine optimization, or SEO 2.0 and it is super powerful - as it should be. Afterall, the search engines simply want to give us what we are looking for when we search online. What better proof is there than real people syndicating what they like for certain keyword phrases.
This content syndication strategy can even be purchased as a service, a "content syndication service" (CSS) providing a chance for your content to go viral. All you have to do is write great content. The service brings in the traffic, get comments posted to your blog posts and articles and videos, gets all of it bookmarked voila! In no time at all your videos, articles, etc. get placed on page one of Google in no time! If your stuff is good, it's given the launch you need to dominate.
So what if you were able to be part of a community of people, real people, 100s of them, who all agreed to syndicate each others work non-stop, 24/7 bookmarking, twittering, facebooking, Digging, commenting, on your stuff all day long. Sounds impossible and would be if it had to be all manually done.
But it doesn't.
Have you ever heard of SynndSEO? That's the name I picked out to show you on a new blog what can actually happen when 100s of people join a private community and use a new technology called SYNND, created be Charles Heflin and his research team.
I captured a 5 minute look at what happens, hands free, with the technology called synnd. And it happens all day long. Just watch a little of it. Move the slider forward and watch a little more. Unbelievable. And it happens quietly in the background. I just took it out of hiding so I could show you.
