Mike Dillard knows his stuff when it comes to making money online. And his approach is fairly simple. Not easy, but simple. It only consists of three steps:
Generate a list
Create a relationship with your list
Monetize your list
If you noticed, I repeated 3 times the word “list” as it is, for sure, the most important part of all your marketing process. It looks simple but each of those steps are huge goals by themselves. You need to break tem down. Check out some details after the jump.
Generating a list
You can’t wake up one morning and say “ok, today I am building my list!” No, the “building a list” step will have to be dissected into several sub-steps. This is for me the most difficult part of all three in my opinion and because it is the first one
When you ask yourself “How do I build that list?“, many answers should come to your mind. If you have no clue whatsoever, I recommend that you get plugged into a program that is going to teach you what it is all about. I recommend all of Mike Dillard products such as Magnetic Sponsoring and MLM Traffic Formula 2.0. They are all great and in reach for the beginners. Unfortunately, MLM Traffic Formula 2.0 is currently close for new registration so what I recommend is that you click on the RSS feed button on the top right corner so you won’t miss it when it opens again. Another option is to click on the link just above and get your free 36 minutes video on how Mike became successfull in his MLM.
If you already have clues on how to build your list the most important decision you can make it to get started!
Another ressource that I have been using in the past months to help me get started for good with a new blog is the Affiliatenaire class by one of the best Internet marketer out there, Jimmy D. Brown. The Affiliatenaire program was designed for Affiliate Marketers who want step by step instruction on how to sell other people stuff online. However I find it extremely good for Network Marketing as it describes exactly how to get started, how to set up your own blog, how to get traffic and how to create your list, the first step in generating massive amount of leads for you MLM or Network Marketing Business.
Here are the key steps to creating a list of people who will to read from you and listen to what you have to say about your Network Marketing products or opportunity:
- Create a website or blog around your market (either products or opportunity)
- Get a free product to give away in exchange of your visitors information
- Get an autorespondeur and have a series of emails ready to populate it (AWeber and iContact)
Those three steps are still big and it can be quite overwhelming. The problem with that is that it makes you freeze and you won’t start anything. So my advice, stop trying to find free stuff in small pieces here and there (I know I did for so long because I didn’t want to spend on this) and get plugged into something that is worth it and that will tell you exactly what to do. It can be Mike Dillard’s Magnetic Sponsoring or Jimmy D. Brown Affiliatenaire. Or it can be any other system that fits you. Don’t worry about what it cost, this is an investment. I am talking by experience here. If you don’t stick with one system you’ll wonder forever and for sure you won’t make any money nor create any lead for your Network marketing business. By applying the techniques from both courses, in a few months (taking it easy), I already started to get back what I paid for those courses. Both are similar and complementary so if you have the budget and if you are motivated, get both like I do and for sure you WILL succeed. And it no rocket science, if you are motivated and know how to follow instructions, you’ll see results.
Creating a relationship with your list
This is a fairly simple part. The key to creating a good relationship with your list is to always, always provide good content and bring value. To bring value to the list there is one skill you will have to learn. [intlink id="512" type="post"]Copywriting[/intlink]. The art or writing a good copy is what will bring prospects ready to buy either your product or your oportunity.
Keeping in touch with your list is done through your autorespondeur. You will be able to reach all of them with some new content that you can put together or that you can get from other sources. It can be everyday, everyweek, every month as long as you have a regular schedule you will build this relationship. People buy from people they trust so you have to gain that trust.
Monetizing your list
When you are rolling with your newletter and your readers start to have your trust through the value you bring to them, you have the possibility to “promote” times to times some of your products or your opportunity. By doing this you do what’s called monetizing your list. You create a daily cash flow for your online or offline Network Marketing or MLM business and you can invest this cash flow toward whatever you want. It can be more advertising, itcan be more training. It gives you the freedom to create momentum.

monetizing a list is very important but buying a list is not the good thing to do. You have to build your own list because to be able to monetize this list you have to have the trust of the list. You can’t get the trust from a list that you bought.
