Introduction If you have <ust started" or are thin#ing of starting your own ,ome -ased -usiness" within the .etwor# Mar#eting Industry I a!!laud you. It is very rare for someone $ust starting in our business" to be dynamic enough to be loo#ing for ways to build their business ( outside of those methods taught by their sponsor and up(line. /ou undoubtedly can see the incredible potential of this booming business model" and are probably loo#ing for ways you can ma#e the opportunity wor# best for you. If on the other hand" you have been with your .etwor# Mar#eting company for a while" have not seen any real success yet" but are still determined to ma#e it wor# I a!!laud you e)en more. Statistics show the vast ma$ority of networ# mar#eters will give up or 0uit" within $ust % mont9s of starting their business. 1hat really is a tragedy" because there are now so many ways of achieving success in our industry that almost any8ody can find a way in which they can be con2ident and com2orta8le enough to succeed. )ll the trends and latest indications are suggesting that our business could be about to e'perience e7!onential gro't9. .ot $ust for now" but for the foreseeable future. 20 Proven Strategies to Sponsor Motivated Prospects. 2conomically the world is changing the days of a =<o8 2or li2e> and the =security> from wor#ing for a large corporation which was once ta#en for granted" is disappearing fast. )s a society our values are changing we aspire to spend less time commuting and at wor#" and more time with our family and friends. Most people would lo)e the opportunity to wor# from home and %earn an income& for themselves ( rather than have %$ob& and wor# for someone else. If we accept this is the case for many people" what are the options3 4ell" establishing and ma#ing a success of your own traditional" small business is not that easy and can be ris#y ( with as many as +/? 2ailing within the first 5 years. Starting your own franchise business does offer greater support and a much higher possibility of success. -ut with minimum start up fees around the 670# mar# and the average probably around 620#8 ( this option is beyond reach for most people. )s you are already aware" a .etwor# Mar#eting business can really be considered as a =,o' Cost Franc9ise 8usiness>. /ou have very similar levels of brand awareness" product development and training and support ( but with a minimal entry fee. So why do so many .etwor# Mar#eters not go on to ma#e a success of their business3 4ell" one reason could be 8ecause it is so ine'pensive to get involved. 20 Proven Strategies to Sponsor Motivated Prospects. Probably in the past" most people did not appreciate that it 'as a proper business they were getting involved with" or did not treat it seriously enough if they did. )lso in the past" our industry may have not had the level of credibility it is now developing. In recent years" many influential businessmen and entrepreneurs have spo#en out about how =genuine and )ia8le> the .etwor# Mar#eting business model is today. Some" such as 4arren -uffett" 9onald 1rump and :ichard -ranson have gone much further than that and invested in t9eir o'n .etwor# Mar#eting companies. ;or these" and many other reasons" it loo#s li#ely that the .etwor# Mar#eting Industry is on the brin# of a massi)e 8oom all around the world. -ut hey" you probably already #now this don@t youA /ou have already done your due diligence and understand this business presents an incredible opportunity but you want to #now how you are going to be able to grow and succeed in your business. 1he fantastic news is that there are now so many 'ays many more than the 20 that I tal# about here that anyone should be able find at least one they are confident to wor# with" and build their business. 20 Proven Strategies to Sponsor Motivated Prospects.

Indeed some smart internet mar#eters use both methods in tandem ( to very good effect. 1he trouble with direct mailing is that you really need to #now what you are doing" or you can end up spending a lot of money for very little results. /ou need to have either a version of a proven sales letterKliterature which your company can provide or a very good personal understanding of effective copywriting. 1here is a lot of free information online about how to write good sales letters or <copy= ( but as with any s#ill" it can ta#e a while to master. 1here are t'o important things you are loo#ing to achieve in any direct mailing. ;irstly you need to =gra8> your reader&s attention straight away so that they are curious enough to read the whole of your sales letter. 20 Proven Strategies to Sponsor Motivated Prospects.
