How To Avoid The Agony Of Network Marketing Lead Generation And Put Yourself In Control!

Network marketing lead generation; it's the life blood of any MLM business and without leads, you're sunk.

I have to be honest with you, I am not a fan of purchasing network marketing leads at any price; never have been and never will be. Why? Because I am not in control.

So what do I mean by not being in control? Well, the simple fact is because I wasn't the one who generated the leads I have no idea of how fresh they are, what qualifying process was used to generate them and the biggest bugbear being how many other people are using the exact same leads I've got.

Network Marketing Lead List

It's one of the greatest lies in network marketing. When you join a business, most often you're told to head over to a network marketing lead generation outfit and purchase a bunch of leads.

You'll usually be given several options to choose from best qualified to least qualified but being ambitious and wanting to get away to a good start you'll more than likely purchase the top bracket leads which could set you back several hundred dollars.

Now it's okay to be thinking at this stage with such top quality leads building your MLM business will be a "piece of cake." So you set about calling people and one by one, they fall by the wayside. Most don't answer the phone, those who do can't remember requesting information about a business opportunity and then, you get those who like to dump on you in an uncomplimentary fashion.

How Fresh Are Your MLM Leads?

Maybe one or two will like more information but by this time, you are thinking maybe I just got a bad batch of leads. Fast forward several months down the track and with your bank balance a few thousand dollars lighter, you suddenly come to the realization maybe purchasing leads was not such a great idea.

Okay, so what if one or two people do join your business? Because MLM is based on downlines duplicating their upline's business building systems, do you really think the one or two distributors "you might catch in your net" are really going to duplicate your efforts. Will you tell them it cost you several thousand dollars and calling hundreds, possibly thousands of phone numbers of network marketing leads for very little success?

Network marketing lead generation can be successful but you need to be the one who is in control. Relying on second or third party leads can be a shortcut to the "poor house." Sure, buying leads works but it usually works best for those with big downlines who have hundreds of distributors calling acting on thousands and thousands of purchased MLM leads.
