How Network Marketing Thrives

Keep it simple

Ask any of the more seasoned and successful Network marketers and they will tell you that the key factor in Network Marketing is simplicity. Network Marketing is a very simple business, but keeping it simple does not mean that hard work is not involved. One of the common mistakes found in this type of home business is that some people try to make it complicated.

Even if a complex system achieved great results for you, others will find it difficult to copy. If you are a network marketer, personal success is not your greatest asset. Your greatest asset is a system that guarantees the success of everyone using it, which simply means that if you and fellow members are thriving within such a system you must embrace that system and show your new members how to teach it to others. The success of others, and your success, is dependent upon their ability to do the same things you do (duplicate your efforts). Keep the least experienced of your network group in mind when you set up a system of doing things for your organization to follow.

Everything you do must be simple enough so that everyone can quickly duplicate your efforts and achieve the same phenomenal results as you. In Network Marketing, you should not do things that require special skills or resources which are available only to you or to a limited number of people. Open up your business to a much larger pool of people who can become successful.

Build quickly

You need to build your network as quickly as possible. You can only meet with a few people each day and can personally close even fewer sales; but using a Network Marketing strategy, you can help others quickly learn to do the same simple things as you. When they do, they multiply your efforts.

Helping them to achieve for the same phenomenal results is quality duplication. Each person in your Network Marketing group, from top to bottom, must be able to exactly duplicate what you are doing and be able to teach others to do exactly the same thing. How large a sales team you are going to build ultimately depends on how well the strategy is duplicated.

To ensure duplication, you need a system or processes that anybody and everybody can follow and teach. You cannot duplicate a person but you can duplicate a system. Therefore, in building a successful and long-term network, the Network Marketing system must rule. Remember, a system is only as good as the ease with which it can be duplicated.

The more complex a system, the less likely will quality duplication be achieved, and to make sure you duplicate well, follow the System you are provided with religiously. Understanding that there is no perfect system, your time is better spent perfecting your ability to duplicate a good workable rather than trying to perfect one and end up making it overly complicated, or too complicated for others to follow and teach.

Simplicity by design

Here is another way of putting it in the form of this example. Ray Krocs, the founder of MacDonald’s, cannot be duplicated but the MacDonald franchise system he devised can be, and is, to almost 100% perfection in 18,000 outlets worldwide. Keeping it simple is meant to ensure that you do things which your distributor can learn from and duplicate.

Can what I am doing be easily duplicated? Is it simple enough to be interpreted, processed and repeated? Keep asking yourself these same questions and if your answer is “yes” at least 75 % of the time, you are on the right track. Keep in mind that the most successful people in Network Marketing understand that everything must be kept simple in order to grow their business.

The most important reason for creating and adhering to a simple strategy is to achieve success for yourself and those who you share the business with. Show others how simple it is to do what you do, because they need to see you do it, and then believe it is simple enough for them to quickly duplicate your actions in order for them to achieve the same positive results in their Network Marketing business thereby enhancing your your Network Marketing growth and success. It’s really that simple!

Home Based Web Business – A Network Marketing Affair


If you have been in the eCommerce market for at least 6 months, you are already receiving offers from many companies promoting their products/services to you, and this will continue as businesses offer you the opportunity to become a distributor of those products and/or services. While many of these businesses offer the opportunity free of charge, others may require you to pay a fee similar to that of a franchise, based on their willingness to set up a website with your name on it and provide instructions on how to make it a success.

Regardless of the motives behind their willingness to share knowledge, techniques and strategies, you’re still able to share in the wealth of their business operations. Where many people make the mistake, is in getting involved with a home-based Web business and then believing – mistakenly – that just by filling out the online forms and paying the required fees, they will immediately start on a money-making journey to riches, wealth and the realization of their dreams.

This could not be farther from the reality of what actually happens after getting involved with a home-based web business. Failure to think long enough about how you came to be involved in this type of business, and the fact that someone was marketing this plan to you, can often lead to failure to grow your new business by marketing it to others; as many “others” as you possibly can during the early years of the new venture.

So the time to relax is not in the beginning of your new business but after you put in the required time (10 to 18 hour days and 7 day weeks, for as long as it takes) to make your business a success. The major portion of your time, work and and money will be spent – or should be spent – promoting and advertising your new business.

There are numerous ways to promote your home-based Web business, such as old-fashion advertising, handing out business cards or even putting you web address on the side of your vehicle to be seen while you drive to the grocery store or around town. All that may be good to draw a half dozen people or so to your new business venture, but to help it really grow and ultimately succeed, it may be necessary to rely more on the network marketing strategy.

NAVAN Global, the REAL SEAL!

Oil millionaire J. Paul Getty is often quoted as saying, he would rather have one percent of the efforts of 100 people, than 100 percent of his own efforts; and that is the basis of network marketing. The Kirby vacuum cleaner company devised its own form of network marketing as far back as 1935 before the phrase was coined and the concept totally understood.

The KVC company knew that in order to sell their sweepers, a sit-down presentation was needed. They had a few dealers with whom they shared the profits of their sales and using their proven methods they taught others to sell the sweepers and each person who was brought in as a sales representative could also share in the profits off the efforts of others once s/he followed the proven success plan.

While a few people may make a lot of money in a short period of time with network marketing, most must grow their business slowly, because of the learning curve, as well as the marketing tests (or test marketing as the case may be) that must take place if your home-based Web business is to be a success. Test marketing is a time-consuming activity which cannot be rushed.

You owe it to your business and yourself (and family, if applicable) to devote the number of hours every day, week and month to learn all you need to know from and about the sponsoring company (if your business is network marketing or milti-level marketing in nature), and anything else you need to know about how to market the product or service you are selling.

Once you educate yourself, you can train others to be successful by teaching them to market the product or service and make money from their sales as well. The more people they have working under them, the more money they can make; And since you devoted valuable time, money and resources to train them, you will also make more money which you would deserve.
