Why The Traditional MLM’s And Their Downlines Are Shrinking At An Alarming Pace
This message is to all traditional MLM network marketers…Wake up and realize that times and marketing have changed!! The sooner you realize this fact, the more home business wealth you will start to see roll in to your bank account.
Now, if you are reading this information, I am assuming that you are either presently considering a home based business franchise or you might have pursued a home based business franchise in the past. What I am going to talk about with you on the following pages will be critical to your home business wealth and financial success. Please pay attention as I highlight the changes that have been going on in the direct marketing world. At the end of the report you will realize the differences of the traditional MLM direct marketing business plan and the new way of Direct Marketing that is destined to bring you more money to your bottom line.
Let’s first take a look at some of the facts that has been studied in traditional MLM direct selling industry over the last 10 or so years:
- Full page ads in an industry magazine that cost $500 around 10 years ago; now cost at least $3,000..in fact just this past week I received advertising quotes of over 6,000k for a one time full page advertisement Ouch!!
- Email marketing is dead, and the ability to advertise in this massive, targeted and affordable way died right along with it.
- You will be forced to recruit everyday for the life of your business just to combat the constant turn over that infects most MLM organizations.
- The MLM industry is holding less and less appeal to the white collar professional who has a hard time seeing how they will quickly replace a six figure income selling weight loss and “Green” cleaning products for a few hundred dollars a sale.
- The MLM industry is holding less and less appeal to the professional because they don’t want to have to bug their warm markets to join them in their venture. They don’t want to have to do home meetings or use the three foot rule and talk to every single person they come in contact with.
- Concrete, duplicatable systems have been hard to find, making it difficult for the new person to really plug into and have success in the MLM game, right from the beginning.
- Rather than focusing on the development of marketing skills, sales skills and personal skills that is needed for true long term success and home business wealth, there is now the get rich quick without doing any of the work website and it has now taken over.
- Your livelihood is built completely on your down line and the residuals that you receive from this down line. Because of the rising attrition rate in traditional MLM’s if one of your leaders leave…you only have your retail sales to live on, and you know that you aren’t making a lot of money from them. The traditional MLM compensation plan was just not built for you to survive on your personal efforts alone, therefore you must rely on down lines that you may or may not have relationships with.
Face it: MLM as we all have known it in the past is dead and the ability to mass educate on the Internet is what put the MLM industry six feet under.
Your down line can find literally anything they want on the Internet to include the newest and the best home based franchise opportunity around. When this happens, doubt about what they are currently doing is now filtrated into the brain and the promise of more money, more wealth and a better lifestyle awaits them all within weeks - not months or years…and poof...they are gone, ending one of your most lucrative down line income streams. Does any of this ring a bell?
So, what is the answer for a direct marketing professional? Stop looking at the traditional MLM opportunities and Start to look at “Top Tier” Opportunities.
Let’s now take a look at the facts of a Top Tier Direct Marketing Opportunity.
- 1) Most Top Tier opportunities have beginning commissions from just one sale of $1,000K and can go as high as around $7,500K. I have even seen as high as $10,000K in some companies.
- Most Top Tier opportunities have what is called a Two-Up compensation plan. What this means is you only get your residual income from your immediate downline; the person you personally sponsored. You do not rely on building your downline hundreds of people thick. You don’t have to worry about the turn over and attrition that typically happens in traditional MLM formats. The typical residual income from just one sale from just one down line member starts at around $400 and can go into the several thousands of dollars. This is just from one sale from one down line member. Can you see the power of this type of direct marketing opportunity versus the traditional MLM?
- Because of the structure of a Top Tier compensation plan, if you have team members who produce for you month in and month out you don’t need to build your immediate down line to thousands but to only 10 or 20 to have the opportunity to make massive amounts of residual income.
- Because of the structure of a typical Top Tier compensation plan, you don’t necessarily have to build any down line at all to realize a multiple six figure income. Since the compensation package starts at around $1000K per sale and goes up from there, you can do the math on how little you actually have to sell to get to the realistic income of six figures and beyond. At that point it is all about how much you actually want to make.
I’ve been in sales a long time, and what I have always done is decide how much I want to make in any given year. I take that figure and divide it by what my commissions are for each sale and then I know how much product and or service I have to sell in a year, month or week to get to where I want to be financially. This simple exercise is my initial business plan in hand and then I do the marketing activity to get the results I am looking for. Straight forward stuff, wouldn’t you say??
I know that your question at this point is; which costs more to start up: A Top Tier opportunity or the traditional MLM opportunity? The answer to this important question will surprise you.
The Top Tier business opportunity is actually much less expensive when you take a serious look at what is needed to be fairly profitable with the traditional MLM opportunity.
The average start-up cost and monthly auto-ship order for the retail products that you will be selling for a traditional MLM is about $200, which comes to about $2,400 per year.
With a Top Tier opportunity and program there is usually a onetime expense. One time and you are done. Most Top Tier business opportunities start just under the $2000K range. So let’s do the math...with a traditional MLM opportunity, by the time year three rolls around you have spent about $7,200 on diet shakes and “Green” household products, all the while fighting the uphill battle of talking to people on why they should buy these products from you rather than going to their local store and be able to buy similar products for less money.
Now I have a couple of important questions for you…if you are currently participating in an MLM opportunity...are you having fun? What is your turn over rate in your team? Have you calculated what you are really making from your residuals or do you have to constantly market your retail products and services to make ends meet? Are you surrounding yourself with the people that you enjoy and are your leader’s people that you can mentor after? Are the people that initially join you action takers? Do they go out and do the revenue generating activity that is needed to create leads and sales that result in income or do they just sign up, use the generic URL your company gives to them, do little to no marketing and expect to be rich in a month?
I would like to talk to you about one more difference between traditional MLM opportunities and Top Tier Business opportunities. Top Tier business opportunities typically attract top business professionals. Typically the individuals that are attracted to the Top Tier opportunity are your peers, they are professional and they are action takers. They know what they want out of life and they are willing to do what it takes to make it happen. They have the persistence and the tenacity to make it to the top.
Most Top Tier opportunity seekers are true entrepreneurs. They realize that there is going to be an up-front cost and they are OK with that. They realize that they are starting a business and that they can write that business expense off. They realize that this is a true business opportunity with a huge financial upside if time and effort are invested to it. The bottom line, these people are typically top business people.
Wouldn’t you love to finally have the opportunity to work with experienced entrepreneurs and professional business people? And remember, you don’t have to work with thousands of them - only a hand full of professional entrepreneurs just like yourself. Sounds refreshing, doesn’t it?
We all have the same amount of hours in one day...its how we choose to spend that 24 hour period of time. If you are establishing your direct marketing business, wouldn’t you rather be making $20,000K, $30,000K or even $50,000K per month that a Top Tier Home Based Franchise Opportunity brings to you? The same amount of effort and the same amount of marketing is going to be put into any opportunity that you choose if you are going to be successful. It would seem to me if the same amount of dedication, work and persistence is needed for success in any home based franchise opportunity, making more money and being surrounded by true professionals might be the most profitable solution.
Are you ready to find a business that will allow you to make $10,000K to $50,000K per month within weeks or months instead of years without the risks or headaches of a dwindling down line, then I’d like to invite you to continue to the next page where you'll have an opportunity to meet one of the fastest growing teams in the Premier Top Tier business who can show you how you can make at least $15,000 per month in a matter of months and not years without having to dial for dollars, call a list of your friends and family, use the three foot rule, or place cards on every car you ever see…EVER AGAIN

"I am an accountant by trade who used to run an office. I had to be able to secure accounts, data entries, balance accounts, and file all the taxes. All of these work with very little income left me with no time for my family.
It became too overwhelming to sustain this kind of lifestyle, I decided to explore the internet in the search engine to see what kind of franchise were available, I was able to view quite a number of them, but after spending some time reading, I click on this company just as I did with the rest of names that were on web page, I started to read as much as I could about as many as 40-50 companies.
I was very impressed with the Wealth Masters International site, based on the structures of the business and the way it was presented on the page. It got me thinking about the power of network marketing and how much of an asset the internet would be to carry this message of how to truly become a successful business person by simply following some instructions of a system that has already been proven. Based on my past experience along with multitudes of business structures that I have seen and have read about, I would say that if someone could exert half the energy they would put into any conventional business into this business, that they will see results much faster and they would be able to attain their goals in ways that will be unbelievable."
