Network Marketing Terms

Autoresponder:  A program such as Aweber that responds to an e-mail or other inquiry without human intervention.
Business Builder:  A team member who is actively gathering customers and building his own team.
Circle of Influence:  Friends and family.  People who are close to you and considered part of your warm market.  People who might be easily influenced by you because of your reputation.

Downline:  The people recruited as distributors into a network marketing company.

Saturation:  The theoretical point at which a network marketing company runs out of potential customers and recruits.
Sponsor:  A distributor in a Network Marketing company who recruits and trains another distributor.
Three-way or Three-way call:  A recruiting call between a new recruit, his sponsor, and a new prospect.  When a new recruit needs has a new prospect, he will three-way his sponsor or another experienced upline member into the call.  The sponsor will do the business presentation and the recruit listens and learns.
