We all dream of making it rich on the Internet, but it isn't as
easy as it looks and there's a lot of hype out there. Becoming a
certified Preventive Healthcare and EQ coach can position you
uniquely. Help people, enhance your online marketing, have your
own business and line of products, be financially independent,
and make a difference in people's lives.
Combine coaching and health products with your current specialty
for a dynamite combination. Here are 10 tips on how to get your
MLM launched to a new level:
1. Choose a quality company with a range of excellent products,
research and sales-records to back it up.
The shopper will gain confidence in a company, and you, and have
a selection to choose from. You can take turns promoting first
one product, then the next. This makes you a person who meets
needs, not someone who sells a widget.
2. Choose something people use every day and that everyone
needs.
How can you lose when you sell something people use every day
and need, like shaving cream, cosmetics, anti-aging skincare, or
nutraceuticals?
3. Choose a product or service aimed at the future - something
people in their 20s and 30s need, because you want customers who
will stay with you for years.
Arbonne (http://tinyurl.com/9jzsf ) is an example of a company
that meets all these specifications. It offers baby care
products, for instance, and anti-aging skincare. You must start
taking care of your skin in your 20s and 30s, and that's
baby-time as well. If you get a customer interested when they're
young, their years with you and your products will be longer.
They also offer a shaving cream with pure, natural ingredients.
And with Bird flu, nutraceuticals are on everyone's minds now.
4. Position yourself optimally by investing in coach
certification. Become an EQ Coach - a Wellness Coach. EQ covers
everything, mot of all, health. This gives you clout. EQ is so
hot right now. "Health" encompasses a large number of the things
people want to buy -- nutraceuticals, cosmetics, clothing,
ebooks, Internet courses, baby products, cleaning products,
further education, music, and books, are just a few. The bottom
line on Emotional Intelligence (EQ) is health, because emotions
directly influence our immune system which is our health. There
are no antibiotics for viruses, like the Bird flu. The money you
invest in this coach certification will be more than paid back.
You will stand out in the crowd and join a new and growing
field. Establish yourself as a coach, and expert in your area.
5. Write articles about your product on the net. Website, ezine
and blog owners will choose your fantastic articles for their
websites, giving you free publicity and many links back to your
website. This establishes you as an expert (add the coaching
certification!), and, if well-written, will train people to look
to you as a resource. Be careful of the quality, as you are
establishing your reputation. You want ezine and blog editors to
see your name and anticipation grammatically correct,
well-written, informative articles for their clientele, not just
adverts.
6. Establish a blog. Make sure it changes daily and is rich in
resources. If it's just an advert, no one will return.
Blogger.com (http://www.blogger.com is one source where you can
set up a free one.
5. Ping your blog additions. Here's one site where you can ping:

7. Make your website more than a shell for one product. The more
information and resources you offer, on a continual basis, the
more people will come back. You want to position yourself as
someone who gives valuable information and meets needs. Always
follow the bread crumb trail. A person will buy a product and it
will suggest another, or someone will tell them, "That's fine
but you need--" Be thinking of things down the line. For
instance, I teach emotional intelligence, which deals with
stress. Anyone wanting to learn EQ to manage stress, will also
need a good nutraceutical (arbonne), perhaps fitness equipment,
I'll be recommending books (amazon.com affiliate), they will
need an image makeover
(www.thecloser.cc/arbonne_makeover_susan.html ), and so forth.
The idea is never to turn away business. Either provide it, or
send them to someone who does. As a coach, you can refer to
other coaches and get a referral fee.
8. Give free teleclasses. You probably won't make much money if
you charge for the course, while if you give it free, you will
reap many benefits. Do it through a place like www.teleclass.com
and you'll (1) get exposure by being listing on their website
and being on their mailing list which can be tens of thousands;
(2) (2) establish yourself as an expert (coach certification
credentials help), (3) feel good and make others feel good by
giving away information.
Example? I coach emotional intelligence and preventive
healthcare. I give seminars on stress management and EQ for
health. From there I can offer Arbonne nutraceuticals, like
Defense Builder, scientifically proven to support the immune
system. It's a natural.
9. Gather email addresses and start an ezine. Analyze data. An
attractive, brief, informative ezine is everyone's favorite.
Constant Contact
(http://cjaffiliate.constantcontact.com/?AID=2832190&PID=1371869
) offers an easy-to-use, affordable, attractive format. You can
create ezines months in advance and have them automatically
sent. This is great when you're on vacation, sick, etc. Constant
Contact provides data you can analyze, i.e., you want to see
which ezines do best and then figure out why. If you aren't good
at analyzing data, a one-hour session with a marketing coach can
be invaluable.
9. Don't ever say "Sorry, I don't sell that" more than one time.
If one customer wants it, they aren't alone. If your customer
asks for something you don't currently provide, don't sit there
like a bump on a log. Take the hint the universe is sending you!
Business is about recognizing opportunity, and your clients
teach your. Either affiliate it, or find someone who does and
partner with them. Don't ever let business get away. 10. Get
coaching. A marketing coach can put you light year's ahead in
the learning curve. The Internet moves fast and you have to be
set to go. If you can't write, they can generate articles for
you.
