How many shows have you joined and promoted, only to end up with almost no referrals? Why did this happened?
Let’s take a look at some of the options you have when a referral signs
up under you You:
– contact that person, offering to help? – not bothering to email them and assuming they know what to do? – email them immediately with your latest program offer?
If you don’t know what to do, you are not alone.
I’ve found that with multi-tier referral programs, no matter what they are, it’s always best to start by trying to get their first 3 referrals, then work with THEM to get THEIR first 3, and also teach them to do the same. This is known in some circles as duplication.
It’s always hard to start building downlines, but do it, be useful. Helping your referrals means that you are ultimately helping yourself too.
depth vs. width
What does that mean? Most programs have multiple levels of reference, building just your first level means you’re building wide, building down through levels means you’re building deep
For starters, work on the depth, rather than the width, of your downline. After that “leg” of your downline is happily working without too much intervention on your part, start with another leg, doing exactly the same thing.
Gold rules
Never use hype when promoting any program. Trust me, it doesn’t work in reality. People get disappointed if they don’t get what they were promised within the promised timeframe.
Be honest in your promotional efforts. Tell people what worked and what didn’t work for you. If people ask you how much you’ve earned over a period of time, tell them. Let them know that online marketing is NOT the easiest thing in the world.
Let’s face it, if you want to make a lot of money from online marketing, you should
You HAVE to treat it like a business, not a hobby, and yes, it does require a
lots of hard work and self discipline. But taking all these things
in consideration, you will be able to work hard and have
something to show 🙂
