Funded Proposals - The Secret to Making Real Income in MLM

Most people are going about their online marketing all wrong...

And that's why they never make any real income from what they do.
Most network, affiliate and Internet marketers don't know how to really succeed.The basic problem is that they don't know what they don't know.
Yes, I had it all wrong to begin with, too.
I floundered around with talking to my immediate friends and family and wondering why no one really wanted to hear all about the amazing opportunity I'd found. Meanwhile, I kept buying and trying these products, and doing all of their online courses I could. I figured that if I kept searching around the company website, I'd find the answer.
No, I never did. (But I was meanwhile going more and more broke...)
The answer came when I was just about to give up on the whole company. My uplines was out of town and not available. Nothing I was doing in all these months of work was even getting a prospect in front of me, much less someone who wanted just to buy some of this product. So I sat down, dejected, in front of my computer and started surfing - seeing if anyone else had this problem.
Somehow, I stumbled upon Magnetic Sponsoring and that author's free video bootcamp.

The Secret was hidden in plain sight.

Mike Dillard now devotes his energy to helping others achieve real wealth.People are mostly mis-trained about marketing and "making money". 
As a herd animal, humankind is trained to always follow, to not stand out. Yet it's the real leaders, the entrepreneurs, who take the risks and attract the following.
Mike Dillard found this out - and became a millionaire before he turned 27.  All the clues were right in front of him, yet he was still poor and struggling - because neither he nor anyone else had put them together into a pattern that made sense. 
And when he did, he was able to build his business rapidly and became a name in the marketing world on his own - a "phenomenon". 
His turning point what when he simply decided to sit down and just study what worked, instead of continuing to do what everyone else did.

Simply: you make marketing pay for itself.

Money is tight when you're starting, so the best way to start is the funded proposal.People starting out in online marketing, weather it's multi-level-marketing or anything else, can fall into the trap of thinking they have to spend a lot of money - that they don't have - in order to "drive traffic to them". Great sums are spent on advertising in the hopes that the numbers will turn in their favor. 
But for the vast majority of people doing this, they never  accomplish anything that  is close to their dreams. Because they are following the wrong example.
Leaders lead. And that's the point. When you narrow down what works and focus on applying only what works - it's then you start making progress.
And people start following you because of your success.
Dillard discovered and perfected the "funded proposal", which is simply a system where interested people are attracted to an opportunity and then lead to their own success by giving them low-cost, high-value educational and training materials that they already want, need, and have been looking for.
And after that discovery, Mike Dillard tested these results and made his millions within his own company. Other people were easily able to duplicate what he did and so built a fast-growing team of people using this system. That team grew and grew - because his system was easily duplicated and taught. But while he could have kept this only to himself and his team, he knew that he had to get it out to the world. So...

...he gave it away as a free series of online videos and an inexpensive book.

Mark Hall studied the funded proposal and came up with his unique backend - you can start today!That's where it all started to turn around for Mark Hall. He had been working around his MLM company for literally a decade. When he came across Dillard's work, he was able to quickly get 4 people sponsored on his own and saw how this fantastic system would work for anyone. 
He'd already tried all these solutions being sold online to "get leads" and found that they were too expensive for the average person to get started. Again, they had set the bar too high for someone just starting out. So Hall took his expertise as a web developer and programmer to build a back-end which anyone could afford - so people could learn these basics and apply them, while their incoming prospects funded the simple marketing costs.
So Hall's success again proved Dillard's system could be applied by anyone in anysituation.
And Mark named his backend: "MLM Rock Stars".

You may be asking yourself - so which should I chose?

The answer is "both".
And you can start for nothing but free.
In both cases, Dillard and Hall give away the key principles right off the bat. They tell you immediately what you need to know to succeed - and become outrageously profitable "overnight." 
Once you know how to succeed, it's easy to make your fortune online.The rest of it is providing the additional needed tools and training to streamline what you are now doing to quickly build and lead your own team of marketers. Which means you can duplicate Mike Dillard's success and become a millionaire in a few years or less.
It is, of course, up to you. It's your choice.

A New Book Release - A Review of Mike Dillard's Elevation Income

How to Build A Million-Dollar Company From Your Own Home in Just 90 Days ...Really?!?

Mike Dillard's Elevation Income Review - How to Build a Million-Dollar Company from Your Own Home in Just 90 Days - Really?!?
(click for larger size)
To begin with, I was caught by surprise.

I was doing my usual, which was working at the daily grind of my slow, but steady home business (of publishing books) when I got this email about a new release coming out.

But it said nothing more than “Dillard was releasing something new, and did I want to be part of it?”

I knew of Mike Dillard from his days in Magnetic Sponsoring. This is where he “almost single-handedly revolutionized the Network Marketing industry” – simply by introducing them to Attraction Marketing, and the Self-Liquidating Offer (“Funded Proposal”)

After that, he'd gone on to build something called the Elevation Group which I hadn't paid much attention to, since it was beyond my price range.

Then I got another email saying how to login to the affiliate members area – and once I got in, I started reviewing his descriptions about what was being offered...

The reason I'm finally publishing this - is so you can learn from someone who's been there, drunk the Kool-Aid, and survived.

Don't Sweat the Cost: Even cheaper ways to build a membership

You get what you pay for in building a membership site - even if it's your own sweat-equity

(photocredit: jonkeegan)

I was just about to wrap this up review of Mike Dillard's Elevation Income and publish it as a book (after being distracted by various other subjects and projects) when I found a solution to other problems which fit here.

That makes this a footnote or postscript of sorts.

As you recall, the secret to his millions was a membership site pushed by affiliates.

The trick to pulling this off is to figure out how to do it without the expensive solutions he was pushing in his video's.

A little research found this:

You can actually set up a membership on a Blogger blog.

This means your costs are already covered. No additional expense. Except your own time.

There are really just two ways -

  1. password protect the entire blog, make it private and by invite only. 
  2. add a script which password protects any whole page/post or just part of it. 

This password function has been built-in to Wordpress for years. My point with Blogger is that you can get it hosted on their servers for free, and being part of the Google+ scene will probably make your site and content rank better. (Wordpress.com has numerous fees for hosting your blog there - and simply won't let you put affiliate or sales links on their free blogs.)

I first ran across building a Blogger membership site in Blogs by Heather. She said you could either protect the whole blog, or use a script to protect a whole post or page.

However, I searched wider to see what else was available and find if anyone came up with the same conclusions.

This post from Silly Girl gives a very nice script that's found on vincentcheung.ca and is able to selectively block just some parts of the text. (With another, shorter tutorial on that script at Simple Blogger Tips.) That's probably your best bet overall, since the non-member could become enticed to see what they were missing - and you don't have to have "Pro" and "Free" sections delineated as much. (Again, they get what they pay for.)

The whole page method would give you links to pages that don't show up. (Harder to do this with posts.) However, it would be good for ecourse delivery.

Drawbacks
The drawbacks to this overall is that you can't easily run your own affiliate program, that you can't do split-testing.

The other point is that you can't drip content and then have it disappear. (One way to get people to buy the book based on the content is to have their original content go by-by after several weeks. Should have downloaded it when they had the chance. Now they have to buy the book to get your hard-won content. Of course, that has the benefit of now being readily available on their tablet or smartphone in one package...)

And finally, all these solutions have only one password. Meaning that eventually your hard-coded password will find its way onto forums. You'll need to reset it at least once a year or earlier.

That leaves our best solution being a plug-in-based Membership site built on a Linux-based Wordpress self-hosted as the best bet overall. (And you should host it on Amazon's scalable cloud, which is yet another research job I won't hold up the book for.)

Pluses
The pluses are that you can start immediately with nothing but the autoresponder and domain name you already have. External affiliate sites (as already covered) can provide you with the recurring payments you need, and will handle the refunds for you. Meaning costs are next to nothing, just a lot of work figuring out how to get it running. See the tutorials.

A side note is that even if you post on Blogger, the point is to give it a CNAME so it's not [YourNiche].blogspot.com, but rather [YourNiche].[YourOwnDomain].com - this should tell Google's bots that it's a "real" blog, not a cheapo.

The bottom line, is of course the value of the content, regardless of what hosting you use.

That's the un-stated real sweat equity in any site you put up. I've seen some otherwise well-marketed memberships fall apart when you saw how cheap the content really was. (They called it "underground." I called it "amateur.")
