In the “old days” of Network Marketing everyone was pretty much tied to their local area promoting meetings where people (prospects?) could hear about their opportunity. Cross country promoting, because of the costs involved, was pretty much out of the question except for the “heavy hitters” of the company.
Well, the Internet has leveled the playing field. You can live in San Diego and sponsor someone who lives in New York. With the internet you can train that person and help them to become very successful, and do it all without having to leave the comfort of your living room! Imagine that!
The Internet has changed the face of Network Marketing. The old “Three Foot Rule” has been changed forever. Remember that rule? Anyone who was within 3 foot of you was considered a prospect. Well, with the Internet the whole world is within 3 foot of you—it is called your monitor!
The Internet now has the capability, with text, audio, and video, to completely captivate that audience—If you know how. Think about it. With email you have no postage costs and no delivery charges. You can contact your entire downline with just the click of a mouse. With audio/video you can train your new distributors just like you were there in person, taking them by the hand and showing them exactly what they need to do!
Now we have covered the overall advantages of the Internet, let’s get into YOUR Internet advantage.Look at how most people promote their opportunity. First, they have to have a website. Now, these people probably do not know how to create a website, they know nothing about FTP, or any of the other aspects involved in the creation of their own website. So, what do they do? They pay for a website which someone in their upline provides—at a cost of usually between $19.95 and $47.00 a month.
You might have a similar site which you are promoting. Do you know what it is worth as a promotional site to send YOUR prospects to?
