If you've decided to go into network marketing, advertising
is very important!
And if you have not begun to create a website of your own, you should think about it now. Because hosting, promoting and adding good content to your own internet site
or blog is the best way to make a killer advertising, network marketing, lead
generation machine!
There are platforms and tools available today that make it a snap to create an online presence. I'm going to tell you a bit about my favorites.
The first, of course, is Blogger. If you are reading this, then you are acquainted with it because it is the platform that hosts this blog. I've been here since 2007. And trust me - back then I was about as technologically challenged as they come! I've gotten a bit better over the years - but I still like simple. If you do too, then Blogger is the platform for you. It is free, easy to use, and best of all - it is owned by Google. That helps with search engine ranking!
Blogger lets you share text, photos, or video. It has a gadget tool which makes it a breeze to add html code or simple apps to your blog. You can also create multiple pages. Blogs will be hosted by Google at heir subdomain of blogspot.com but you can also use a registered custom domain if you have one. Once you set up your account, you can have up to 100 blogs! Of course, then you have to consistently maintain 100 blogs...
Next is WordPress. WordPress was first created for the purposes of blogging, but many people
realized fast that a WordPress blog can be employed as a totally functional
website, on which you can include a blog capability or not. I do have a WordPress site at MelodieannOnline. You will notice, however, that it is woefully out of date. I personally find WordPress more difficult than Blogger. That does not mean you shouldn't check it out. It does have some amazing capabilities - which is why I have not completely abandoned it! You never know - I might just figure it out one day! WordPress has both free and paid options, depending on what functionality you are looking for.
Last we have SoloBuildIt. This is my platform of choice for may main websites, Boomer Business Ideas and MelodieannWhiteley.com. (If you check these out, you may have to be patient while navigating as I just hired someone to give them both a major overhaul!) I am not going to go indepth about SoloBuildIt here. I wrote a post about The BoomerBizCoach Tested and Approved Tool That Makes Online Business Success Doable.
These tools are easy to use to build your site. But it still has to be promoted
just like any website. It's never going to be found and get traffic if you don't get out onto the
web and publicize or promote it.
Forums and other Blogs for Advertising Network Marketing
Take part in forums that permit "do follow" links. This
implies that each time you post on a forum relevant to your service or product,
you can place a link to your website, and people can click thru and get more
info.
Social Media Sites for Advertising Multi-Level Marketing
Facebook lets you set up a page devoted to your business, and your
business actually should ideally be kept separate from your private page.
You can promote your products on Facebook thru paid advertising. The
facility Facebook offers for choosing the proper demographics for your network
marketing advertising makes it extraordinarily easy to reach your exact target market.
Video Advertising on YouTube
Though YouTube is a social media site, it is one of the finest places
for advertising your network marketing efforts.
All you need is a microphone and a camera, or these days just a quality smartphone, and you will quickly brand yourself and
your product and if you do it right, it's the best destination to gain a
following and make some sales.
By
showing your face, you are effectively branding yourself and if you do it properly
you may gain a large following. Many marketers make thousands of dollars a month from
YouTube.
Article Writing is Extremely Important
Write informative and helpful articles about your product and these
can be submitted to article sites. There are some sites that will submit your
articles to many article sites at the same time, and these will save everyone a
lot of time.
They are the best method to get your articles out onto the web. Each article
contains a link to your internet site, so you can get plenty of traffic from
them.
Thoroughly chosen keywords from your articles can get picked up by the major
search engines and come up in searches, so that they can be great exposure and
bring you good traffic.
Why you need to create an advertising network marketing
machine is to help generate leads.
Lots and lots of leads. Because leads are the name of the game. Without leads you do not have a business.
There are many different ways to publicize your business,
some much more effective than others. Here's the best advertising network marketing system I have used to
literally create leads on demand and build my groups fast.
If you have decided to enter the world of network marketing, advertising is critical. And if you have not yet created a website, you should start thinking about it now. Because hosting, promoting and adding quality content to your own web site or blog is the easiest way to create a killer advertising, network marketing, lead generation machine.
It's very easy to build a website today. There are many tools available to help. It can be as simple as a blog on Blogger or WordPress. Or you can do something bigger with tools such as SoloBuildIt. Yes, I know. Many companies offer free or very inexpensive replicated websites. Forget them! If you have one, think about it....so does every other rep! And unless you are a marketing whiz, it will be difficult to set your site apart from all the others that look just like it. That's why I recommend building your own unique site.
Of course, building your site is only half the battle. It may be easy to do and easy to use, but it will have to be promoted and advertised. You won't get traffic to your site if you don't get out there and promote it. If you are going to rely mainly on SEO, you may never get significant amounts of traffic. Unless, of course, you are and SEO genius!
There are a lots of places and plenty of strategies to promote your site:
1. Forums
Participate in forums that allow "do follow" links. This means that every time you post on a forum related to your product or service, you can place a link to your site, and can click through and get more information.
2. Social Media Advertising
Facebook is the current ruler of social media and if you aren't using to promote your business, you are missing out. Facebook allows you to set up a page for your business that is separate from your profile page. You can also promote your products on Facebook with Facebook ads. Once you know how to create a good Facebook ad, you can reach literally millions of prospects for a very reasonable amount of money. Facebook's ability to target the demographics best suited for your business are amazing. When I am promoting my skin care products, I can zero right in on middle-aged women. I can even further hone my targeting to those that are interested in all natural skin care products.
This is huge! Think about it! Instead of placing an ad just out there on the internet and hoping my target market finds it, I can actually ensure it gets right in front of them. So now I'm confident that the people I want to have eyes on my offer are actually the ones seeing it and not some teenager who thinks they will be young forever and doesn't care about skin care or a guy that thinks skin care isn't "manly".
3. YouTube/Video Advertising
Yes, YouTube is a social media site. But I'm mentioning it separately because it is one of the best places for advertising your business. And it is all about video and video is HOT right now.
You don't need much to get started. I do my videos right on my smartphone. If you want to get more sophisticated, you can get a microphone and a camera. But what's important is that with video, you can quickly brand yourself and your product. And if you do it properly, it is one of the best places to build a following and make some sales.
4. Article Marketing
Write informative and useful articles about your product, or about network marketing, or just marketing and business in general. Then submit these to article sites. My favorite is EZine Articles. Each article will contain a "bio box" which tells a bit about you AND contains a link to your website. So when search engines pick up the keywords in your articles, you can get tons of exposure which can result in plenty of traffic. So make sure you are carefully selecting your keywords to reach your target market.
You need to create a network marketing advertising machine to help generate leads. Lots and lots of leads. Because leads are the name of the game. These are just four ways to advertise your products or business. There are countless others. Some are more effective than others. So how do you possibly learn all there is to know to make the right choices and then use that method in the most effective way? You don't. You use a system that has already done all that for you. Take a look at the best marketing system I have ever seen. One that will help you create hundreds of leads on demand and help you build your downline fast!
You will have to invest a certain amount of cash into network marketing advertising. That is just a fact of business. But there aren't too many other ways of promoting a product without it. Many new network marketing specialists fail to realise this concept. Advertising is essentially an investment if it's working and they miss their chance at making a reasonable income.
You may not see advertising as an investment, but methods of advertising that are chosen sensibly and closely monitored, can make a large ROI. Bad advertising brings poor returns.
Just like any business, online and off, network marketing advertising is one of the keys to success. It can often be confusing online particularly with the other millions of internet sites, blogs and ads all competing against you. Unless your product is completely unique and new, you're going to need to learn where to put your advertising.
The very first thing you should do is figure out your advertising budget. Fortunately, this does not need to be a large amount. For example, you can advertise on Facebook for as little as $5.00/day. Put aside a specific amount each month, and be pragmatic. When you find the most successful style of advertising for your business, you can then raise your monthly budget.
Most people that are new to network marketing only have tiny budgets, but the good news is there are many different ways to publicize for free online. Some are effective. Some are downright pointless. Keep experimenting and find what works for you.
These are the results you will be looking for from your network marketing advertising:
1. It should be bringing you a flood of leads
2. It'll be a medium for you to advertise your product
3. It will be a technique for branding your company and growing brand recognition
4. It should be a route for you to effectively and efficiently close sales.
By far the best and least expensive form of advertising is recommendation by friends, and online generating a buzz about your product can pay enormous dividends, but it's going to be up to you how you go about this. Social networking sites, particularly YouTube, are glorious places for getting heaps of eyes on your product, but though this strategy might be free, you need to plan everything you do thoroughly or it can backfire.
Do not expect to go on Twitter and make 1 or 2 posts saying your brand is the best, or buy one of these, because you'll be un-Tweeted and ignored. Neither should you post on Twitter every minute or two. You wouldn't do it at a cocktail party, so do not do it on social media sites, blogs or forums either.
You must build a following before even mentioning what you are offering. Just like a party where almost everybody is a stranger to you, you have to build relationships and trust before you try and pitch your product.
You can also rely on others to offer you referrals, and again, this comes thru social interaction, both offline and online.
It is essential you build a relationship with that person first. Leads are valuable, and no one is going to reach in his pocket if he doesn't know anything about you!
Mailing programs are so yesterday, but if you're marketing off-line it's so unusual to get mail nowadays, this might be an effective way of marketing. especially if you have a local brick-and-mortar location.
List-building is one thing that many don't understand, especially off-line businesses. A large amount of information can be gathered by doing a direct mail-out, but the drawback is it is extraordinarily pricey and can frequently be ineffective.
The easiest way to build a list is online. If you can somehow get people to visit your capture page, and leave an email address when they come, you can then use this list for future marketing campaigns. The easiest way is to offer something of value in exchange for their e-mail address. This can be something as simple as a free report or eBook, product sample, or complimentary service.
It is difficult to run an efficient network marketing advertising campaign if you actually don't understand how it all works. There is an enormous amount of psychology behind selling effectively and if you do not understand the fundamentals of network marketing, now is a very good time to learn. Or tap into a marketing system that has already done all the learning and use it to do your marketing for you until you learn to do it yourself/
