The study of how to succeed at network marketing has changed drastically over the past 10 or so years. The reason for this change can be summed up in two simple worlds: the internet.

Of course the world wide web has completely changed the landscape for all types of businesses. But for the purposes of this article we’ll focus our attention specifically on MLM and the web’s impact on how to succeed in network marketing.

There are so many great resources available which can teach you how to leverage web technologies to build your home based network marketing business.

These resources will instruct you on the proper usage of social sites such as YouTube, Facebook and Twitter. How to use blogs to succeed at network marketing, the importance of having a marketing funnel in place, PPC efficiency and the list goes on and on.

What tends to get lost in the ocean of this technological training as it relates to growing a network marketing business is the personal nature of MLM.

At the core of Mike Dillard’s Magnetic Sponsoring training is the importance of positioning yourself as a leader. A leader that others will view as a valuable resources who can help them to build a successful network marketing business of their own.

Understand that success in network marketing is entirely about connecting with people. And this is the reason why the internet has had such a tremendous impact on how to succeed in network marketing. It provides us with an unlimited number of ways to connect with others.

Never before have we seen such powerful business building tools.

But never lose sight of the fact that behind every email you send and every video you post to YouTube and blog post you make there are people; real live human beings. And people want to do business with other people not technology.

Technology changes at such a blistering pace that you can never be too sure of what will be the next new, hottest technology to market and grow your MLM business. What’s hot and what’s working now could be completely different next year; even next month.

What has remained unchanged though for thousands of years and what will never change is human nature.

At the core we all have dreams, goals, desires and wants. When you can understand the dreams, goals, desires and wants of the people you’re talking with about your business you will have no choice but to succeed.

When you connect with people on a personal level and understand their motivations for wanting to start an MLM business then you will no doubt succeed at network marketing.

Although the internet provides every means imaginable to initiate contact with others, how do you take it to the next step? How do you then replace technology with the human touch even if a person is half way around the world?

With your eyes and ears, that’s how. Read the emails they send to you with care and really listen to what they say when speaking with them on the phone.

In order to connect with people on a personal level you’ve got to find out what motivates them. You need to uncover their dreams and goals. To do that, you should be spending most of your time looking and listening.

Ask them questions and let them tell you why they are worthy of your valuable time. Let them convince you that they are a good fit for your business not the other way around.

Finally, above all else, network marketing is a business. Make sure you get involved in a business which is true to your core. When you’re speaking with others they will be able to sense the belief and enthusiasm you have for your product.

Your belief and enthusiasm will come through which will result in a natural human connection with others.

I’m in the process of gathering notes for a new book I’ll be writing this year. One of the topics to be covered in the book is the importance of focus. And man oh man I can tell you how important it is for you stay focused on what you want.

Consider this – whether you realize it or not, you are getting bombarded with thousands of advertising and marketing messages every single day. Not to mention all the other things vying for your attention; the kids, the spouse, the boss, the clients. It’s no wonder you, or anybody else for that matter, has trouble staying focused on important objectives.

However, you owe it to yourself – to your long term success – to learn how to stay focused. And believe me this is something I know all too well. Like all of my most important lessons, it’s something I had to learn the hard way.

When I made the decision to market my business on the internet I needed to learn everything from the ground up. What I quickly discovered is there are a ton of different ways a product or service could be marketed online.

For a few months I tried every marketing method I came across; I tried to do everything and wound up doing nothing. The moment things began to change was the day I decided I needed to focus on a single method until I got it right. Then, and only then, could I try other methods.

May I pass this same idea on to you?

Is your life going the way you want it to? Are you looking for more success but just seem to be stuck in a rut? If so I can tell you with absolute certainty that you’re suffering from the same affliction I had: lack of focus.

A greater level of success will never fall into the lap of the person who suffers from a lack of focus. Success demands that you keep your mind and actions trained on specific objectives.

Many successful entrepreneurs manage multiple successful businesses and projects at once. But, you can be sure that they built a single business at a time. Each business is built with care and focus then the next project is taken on.

I recently read a book entitled The Go-Giver by Burg & Mann – in fact I’ve read it multiple times. I’m not necessarily endorsing the book but what I will say is it’s one of the best business books I’ve read recently.

The basic message of the book is one of reciprocity; that in order to receive anything in life you must first give. I’ve read tons of business books and the lessons taught in The Go-Giver – a seemingly simple little 130 page book – are essential for success in today’s economy.

The most important lesson is this: you must give freely without want in order to get.

This lesson holds particular importance especially in today’s economic climate. People today are very cautious about what they do with their money. They won’t want to do business with somebody if they do not first trust that person and see them as a valuable resource.

The days of a slick ad campaign or standing at the top of a mountain screaming that you’re the best are no longer effective vehicles for success. This new, emerging economy demands that you prove your value to others first before they’ll want to do business with you.

You can do this by freely giving value without expecting or asking for something in return. I’ve personally put this lesson into practice in my own life and business and it’s truly a miracle to see what has happened.

If you’re reading this newsletter then there’s a good chance you’ve read my book “A Plum In The Syrup”. When I first wrote the book my original plan was to put together a pretty, shiny web page and sell it for $47. In the end I decided to just give the book away for free with the hope that it would, in some way, help those who read it.

If you have not gotten my book, you can download it absolutely free:

Since making that decision the book has been downloaded and read in countries throughout the world. And now that I’m freely giving the book away there are tons more people out there who are reading it and who are interested in what I have to say.

I am dead serious about this, if you want to see better results show up in your life, stop asking what you can get from people and start asking what you can give to them to make their lives better. By making the lives of other people better you will, by the law of reciprocity, be making your own life better. This I can absolutely guarantee you.

Have you seen the free resources I’m giving away on this site? I’ve spent hundreds of dollars and collected tons of very valuable books over the years and now I’m giving them all to you completely free of charge.

There are no strings attached. Simply click on the “free resources” tab above and gain instant access to over 100 business and personal development books. All I ask in return is that you tell your friends, family and colleagues about this resource library. That’s a pretty reasonable request, is it not?
