Online Network Marketing – Networkers Become Affiliate Marketers Overnight

Online Network Marketing has recently boomed throughout the web. However, I must warn you about the traps that lay along the path of creating a network marketing business online.

I have been building my list and promoting through the internet since late 2008, and have accumulated a list of network marketers that is over 6,000 currently and growing by the day at a rate of 30-40 people.

I noticed that many aren’t training themselves and learning the ropes of becoming a networker rather they’ve shifted to the funded proposal concept and try to sell the affiliate products. There surely is nothing wrong with selling affiliate products, but at the same time you must also learn to emphatize with your prospects.

They have come to your page, you pitch a message they have never heard about creating leads online, but then you sell them a million different affiliate products. Tell me how will this build your dream of network marketing succeess? I regretfully have to say that it isn’t building anything for you.

You are making the owners of the those affiliate programs a lot of money, so they will continue to promote through PPC and SEO etc.

A few adjustments I have made, because you see the internet gives you the ability to generate the “numbers” so you can sponsor people, but how are you going to keep them in the business? Network marketing is not about sponsoring millions of people that entire concept is absurd and misleading.

The process of network marketing is to develop and train individuals into leaders. How do you build a relationship with the 20 people you sponsored last month with online network marketing? How you insert them into company functions?

Would you rather sit behind your computer managing websites for the rest of your life and spend thousands so you can keep promoting affiliate products? That isn’t the reason I came online to generate leads nor it is what I wanted to do.

Now we are all different I get that, but I know 99% of you will fail with online network marketing because of the following reasons:

1. Based on my own experience, the learning curve is measured in months, even if you have the best training or webinars available under your belt.

2. Learning the art of copywriting helps you to become eloquent, inspiring people, as well as earning money for your online business. That’s why I prefer video marketing where I can project my message and feelings through video.

3. Everyone now promotes affiliate products for their funded proposal, but I have yet to meet a person who generated his/her residual income in the form of an actual online network marketing residual check than either a sales volume or an upfront commission from affiliate products.

You’re going to see people running “negative” ads about how they left their companies and made a huge amount of money in the net.

The whole GPT (Get Paid Today) concept is completely against MLM. If you noticed these are the same marketers who lure people into $8,000-$20,000 programs who market the concept.

Let me repeat my question: Are you a network marketer or an affiliate marketer?

I must make it clear that the internet does have a few certain strategies that gives you the ability to generate leads for your network marketing business, but your going to have to pick up the phone and communicate with these people.

There is no magic pill, autopilot downlines do not exist. These are myths to lure you for them to be able to sell useless information.

If you expect to build a network marketing business and truly create that legacy and residual income your going to have to change the way you are marketing on the web and begin to incorporate real world training, meetings, seminars, sit downs with your prospects.

Trust me when I say this, I am not the only one with this view point. I can show you 7-8 figure earners in the Network Marketing industry that never sold a single affliate product yet have the biggest checks and true residual income.
