Downline Building - Start Each Month With an Income Base

 

Are you having difficulty downline building? People get some screwy ideas about products when they decide to do an MLM business. You often hear, "I can't sell any product unless I love it!" Actually, the truth is, you can't sell a product unless there is a market who want it. And for a professional, that is always their number 1 consideration. To have a lifetime of success in MLM, you need to provide one or more products that people really want, and which are consumable, so they get ordered over and over and over. It's surprising how many businesses which call themselves network marketing, actually sell products which offer no month after month after month recurring income. Instead, it's a one-time sale.

 The great advantage of a true MLM business is that as you build, your income is cumulative each month. That's what they call residual income. Most people do not really understand the difference until they actually build residual income and then they take off for 2 months to go to the Galapagos Islands or something and when they come back, they have 2 checks waiting for them, and the 2nd check is bigger than the first. THAT is residual income, and it's pretty exciting and pretty life-changing.

 You'll never have a strong stable MLM income unless your new guys go on autoship. Autoship means that they automatically get product each month, charged to their credit card. Autoship means that you have customers you can count on ordering each month, which means you start each month with a certain income base, and it increases from there. If you explain the autoship to your team, they will sign up for it, because they are also serious about building an income they can depend on. You can tell them that there are good reasons for autoship. The exact reasons will vary from one company to another, but here are 3 possibilities:






  • First, use those products you get as samples with your prospects. That means that your autoship expense is 100% tax deductible, because it is a business expense. For tax purposes, keep a record of the free samples you give.





  • Second, the company gives a free product each month to anyone with a certain amount of autoship.





  • Third, being on autoship qualifies you to receive the company car bonus. Also, some companies offer a special bulk purchase for those on autoship on autoship, you get X amount of free product in that Super Pack. Use that bonus yourself, or use it again as samples with your prospects.




 

You'll find good reasons for autoship with any company. Learn your comp plan so you understand your company's autoship reasons, and share them with your prospects.
