We’ve all made foolish errors in our multi-level marketing businesses but focusing on them doesn’t do us any good. One of the best things we can do is to admit our legitimate MLM business sins and move on before they stop us from doing what we set out to accomplish forever!

So what is a home business sin? Something you do that keeps you from having fabulous success working-at-home. Here are a few examples of the top MLM network marketing business sins

Not Working Hard Enough
Giving up too soon
Keeping your business a secret from family and friends
Not attending yearling conventions
Treating your business like a hobby
Spending too much money on leads

The list really could go on and on but you get the idea. These are the biggest sins that are committed the most. So here’s the big question for you. What sins have you committed (or are committing) that are keeping you from reaching all of your goals and living the life of your dreams? It could be some of the ones listed above or they could be different.

Whatever they are it’s important that you know that they don’t have to pull you down forever. The first step in mending anything is accepting you’ve got a problem. So if you’re not taking your business seriously enough don’t beat yourself up or dwell on it forever. Just admit that what you re doing is misguided and go on with your life.

All too frequently we want to penalize ourselves for our old mistakes. The past is just the past, and it doesn’t have to mean anything unless you let it. Open your eyes and find the habits that are holding your business back, correct them and then forget them.

Nobody is perfect and even people who are now making millions have made some of the same foolish mistakes you’re making now, so don t let them slow you down.

Success can and will be yours when you confess your internet MLM business sins and learn to forgive yourself!

Rejection, nobody likes it, but if you’re going to be involved in a home based internet marketing business you better get used to it!

It doesn’t matter how good you are, people are going to reject your opportunity and some will blatantly reject you. If you want to succeed in any MLM network marketing opportunity, you better learn to live with rejection.

Your prospects will need to learn to trust you, and some of them just won’t take the time to get to know you so they can learn to trust you. That’s just the way it is and we’re not going to change people.

Trust is earned when prospects see you as a real person, not some automated robot that throws a bunch of stuff on the internet. People need to know that you scrambled just like they may have struggled in a home business. Of course you need to tell the truth, so if you didn’t struggle don’t act like you did!

We have no problem telling people that we were, facing bankrutcy and foreclosure, before we ever became successful in our home based business. We tried and failed at many home based businesses. That’s not something you tend to make up!

People are more likely to identify with you when you write to them in a conversational tenor. You have to write in a way that feels like you are writing to one person.

No matter how many people you are actually writing to, only one person is reading your email or blog post at a time so it’s important that it “sounds” like you’re writing to that one person. Your prospects are less likely to reject you if they feel like you understand them and care about them.

That doesn’t mean that you become wimpy in your writing. Trying to please everyone is a recipe for disaster. Let me give you a recent example.

A prospect called me and said he wanted to become successful working from home. But then he went on to say that he wasn;t going to do this and he wasn’t going to do that. He admitted that he had never been successful in any home based business.

It’s tempting to try to please every prospect just so they will like you and join your business, but this guy has no chance at becoming successful with his know-it-all attitude. I politely told him that I couldn’t work with him unless he was willing to do the very things he said he wasn’t going to do.

To make a long story very short he wasn’t happy with what I had to say and I ended the conversation rapidly. This guy wants to become successful but he isn’t willing to do what successful people do.

I’m not trying to become friends with everybody I talk to and you shouldn’t be either. I’m trying to help people change their lives forever.

Your #1 goal is to start a relationship with like-minded people who seek counsel on the way to their goals. Your job is to help them get to wherever they want to go. All prospects really care about is where they want to go and if you can help them get there.

You won’t find success in any multi-level marketing business until you focus on your prospects and what they want in their life!

If you already know what you want and you’d like to find out if I can help you, I’d love to talk.

You might think it’s impossible to build a home based business while you’re on a cruise, at a resort or a spa but it’s not. Build your home based business the right way and you really can build it while you’re on vacation!

The internet has made your multilevel marketing business so much easier. There are so many ways that you can automate your home based business now that will allow you to do less and still accomplish formidable outcomes.

Video marketing is one of the most efficient ways to grow your business on vacation. That’s because the internet never stops working for you. It is always open and hundreds of people are constantly searching through Youtube and other video sharing sites searching for opportunities just like yours.

That’s why so many people who market their business on the net have chosen to concentrate so hard on video marketing. You make a video, you put it on Youtube and it’s there forever. So whether you’re at home or in the Bahamas someone somewhere could be watching your video and wanting to find out more about your home based business.

Here are just a few of the hundreds of videos that we’ve shot around the world on vacation…

We shot this home based business video in Boston, St. Louis, New York, Niagara Falls and a lot of other places.

Here’s an unusual home based business video that we shot in Rocky Mountain National Park Colorado.

We’ve literally shot hundreds of videos all over the world and these videos are working for us 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year!

Article marketing and blog marketing are other strong methods that do the same exact thing that video marketing does. You do it ONCE and it s there forever! We have many blogs that drive traffic to different websites, that we use to grow our business all the time.

The next step in establishing your work-at-home business on vacation is to set up a website with an autoresponder. So when somebody sees your blog post, article or video they are motivated to go to your website and when they do, they fill in their name and email address.

Once the name and email address has been captured you will automatically be sending your prospects information about your home business. You can even set the emails up so that they give the prospect the place where they need to sign up. You could literally come home to more sign ups and you’ve done NOTHING!

So before you go on vacation next time you’ll want to think about all the things you have on the internet that could possibly be working for your while you’re away.

There is nothing in the world like coming home to a check in the mail that you didn t even have to work for!

A lot of teenagers want spending money, so they find jobs after school outside the home. They work at grocery or clothing stores or fast food restaurants. So I ask you, if your teenager is looking for a way to make some quick cash, why not have them help you with your home based MLM business? That way he or she gets some money and they’ll also help your business. That sure does make sense to me. Here are a few ways that your teenager can help you build your home base business.

Teenagers are extremely internet savvy, so doing things on-line can be a fantastic way for them to help you and make some extra money at the same time. Submitting articles can be a demoralizing task, so why not hand it over to your teenager? Give them your articles and a list of all the places you need them submitted and have them get it done. This is effortless work, it’s just not the most enjoyable thing you have ever done. Hey, at least it’s better than making french fries!

Another thing they can accomplish online is handle your Myspace or Facebook page. They can send out messages, keep everything up to date, add pictures and reply to inquiries. There’s a good chance they would be better at it than you ever will and it might also be fun for them.

You might also have them produce a blog or blogs for you. You should probably supply the content after they’ve set it up. You could even email them the blog posts and have them actually post them for you many times every week. Nobody has to know that you aren’t doing it.

Passing out flyers is another marketing concept that takes up a lot of time, but can easily be handled by your teenagers. Have some flyers or door hangers produced and have your teenager put them on cars or homes to drum up more business for you.

Ultimately, you can have your teenager help you with simple organizational matters around your home office. Things like filing or organizing your leads can be a immense help and allow you to do more business and less busy work.

There are many things that you and your teenager can do together to help your MLM network marketing business grow. Chances are, it will be good for you and good for them. Don’t limit their involvement to the things in this blog post. Observe the things that work best for you and your teenager and have a superb time making more money for the both of you!

Twitter has become extremely popular over the last year or so. It seems like every time you turn around somebody is talking about Twitter.. Everyone from high school kids, to big name celebrities, to the president are now on Twitter. This social networking site can also mean great things for your work at home internet business.

I’m just going to be going over the basics of what Twitter is and how to use it. Think of this blog post as the newbie guide to using Twitter.

Even if you’re someone who is a little afraid of the internet, you have nothing to fear here. Twitter is easy. Of all the social networking sites, Twitter is probably the easiest to use for someone who doesn’t know a lot about the internet.

Get going by registering at Twitter.com it’s fast and easy and should take you less than 10 minutes (probably less than 5). The way Twitter works is very simple. You communicate with people by posting quick tweets (that’s what it’s called when you use Twitter, you are tweeting) about you and want you’re doing. This is very much like the status updates on Facebook. If you are uncertain about what to tweet about just sign up and then see what other people are tweeting. This should give you a good idea of what it’s all about.

After you’re all signed up you will want to get people to start following you. If nobody is following you then the tweets are pointless so your goal is to get as many followers as possible.

It’s also a good idea to complete your Twitter profile and add your picture.

A good way to get started adding Twitter followers is to begin by following lots of other people. In most cases if you follow someone they will follow you back and this builds a pretty good list in the beginning.

The only thing to do after that is to continue to grow your list every day and of course to add more tweets! Twitter has become so popular because once you start doing it you’ll find it to be extremely addictive and fun. By posting things about your legitimate home based business, your new blog or a link to your newest YouTube video, you’ll also be gaining prospects!

Tip: Make sure you don’t just tweet about your internet network marketing business. You need a good mix of business as well as personal / fun stuff to get more potential prospects to continue to follow you on Twitter.

Ask almost anybody and I’m sure they will tell you that network marketing or MLM doesn’t have the best reputation. In fact, a rather large number of people despise multi-level marketing or network marketing. But the big question is…. why?

I’ve often pondered why so many people have such a negative knee jerk reaction to the network marketing industry, and I actually find it rather fascinating. Post a video on Youtube or Revver about MLM and it’s only a matter of minutes before someone posts an vehemently negative comment on it. Talk to your family and friends about what you’re doing and you’re bound to see them roll their eyes.

Why are people so negative? Fear, plain and simple. People always fear what they just do not understand. They also fear things that they aren’t used to. For many people working at home, without the guarantee of a steady paycheck is very, very different and that can scare the livin’ daylights out of a lot of people. Even if they cannot stand life the way it is.

Some people won’t do a thing because they are deathly afraid of even the possibility of falling for a scam or getting into an illegal business that they cannot stand. However, the reality is that most companies today are very inexpensive to start up.

Part of that is because almost all networking MLM businesses can be built on the internet. People don’t employ brochures or flip charts as much as they once did, and that means you can get going with your new home-based-business for considerably less because you wont have as much in your starter kit.

When you talk about the investment required to commence your network marketing business you’re ordinarily talking about a few hundred dollars. A good chunk of change sure, but not a king-size life modifying investment. Certainly nothing like the amount of money it would cost to start your own brick and mortar business which can cost $10,000.

However, it is the start up cost plus the incredible misunderstanding of exactly what an MLM business is that scares away so many individuals.

It also doesn’t help, that many people know a family member who has been in MLM and lost their shirt. Yet, you must remember that in numerous cases the cause someone bombed in the business isn t necessarily the fault of the business. Sometimes the person who joined the business is to blame because they didn’t invest the time necessary to become successful. A lot of people are looking for wealth without work and that never happens.That might not make people very happy to hear but it’s the truth.

Explain to me, how can one person join a company and claim that the business is a scam and another person can join the same company at the very same time with the same exact products and become a millionaire? Without a doubt, it can’t just be the company’s fault. The individual who didn’t make any money needs to look in the mirror to see who is to blame.

When you really stop to analyze it there are many reasons why people might be a little worried or leery about MLM however, when you really break it down there isn t much to be afraid of at all. Network marketing works for those who are willing to work for it. The negative stamp might always be there but MLM is helping people make more money, work from home and live a better life, no matter what anyone else imagines.

There has never been a marketing tool like YouTube for your work from home based business… and that’s an unmistakable fact!

YouTube is often referred to as “New Media” and boy is YouTube effective. If you’re not already using YouTube you are missing the boat.

Let me tell you why we LOVE YouTube…

#1 YouTube Is FREE

Can you imagine walking in to your local TV station and telling them that you have this video that you want them to run for FREE? Sounds ridiculous doesn’t it. But that’s exactly what you can do on YouTube and you don’t even have to ask.

You can put your video on YouTube and within minutes it’s there for the world to come across and you never paid a dime. The whole world can see it and it cost you nothing. You gotta love it!

#2 YouTube Is As Effective As Anything You Will Ever Use!

It’s as effective as it gets when it comes to marketing your Christian home based business on the internet. We’ve got hundreds of videos all over the internet on other websites but none of them get the number of views that we get on YouTube.

Heck we get more views on YouTube than we do from all the other sites on the internet combined. Do you want to know why? Because Google loves YouTube and Google puts YouTube videos higher in the search engines more consistently than any other website on the internet. Just in case you didn’t know, Google owns YouTube!

#3 YouTube Allows You To Connect And Relate To Your Prospects

Your legitimate home based internet business prospects can see you, they can hear you and in many cases they have already decided to join your business before they ever talk to you. You may find that hard to believe but it’s the truth.

Prospects who watch our videos on YouTube call us and in many cases they are in our home based business in less than twenty five. Name another prospecting method that has that kind of impact, I dare you to name one!

If you don’t have friends on FaceBook, being a part of a social networking site is quite senseless. You can be average or you can be a FaceBook superstar. Clearly, since you are using FaceBook for the purpose of marketing your work at home online business, you want to be a superstar. You can achieve that status in as little as 30 days, but it does take a time commitment on your part. But that shouldn’t be an issue because you want to be successful right?

First you should see that if you have fewer than 200 friends on FaceBook, this isn’t a bad thing. In fact, it’s an average thing. However, again, you want superstar status, so this will not do for you.

Once you have 500 friends, you are considered to be popular, and people will be pulled to you, and when you have between 800 and 1000 friends, you’re essentially a FaceBook celebrity. Eventually, that’s what you should be working towards, but for now, let’s concentrate on becoming popular, with 500 friends.

Resist the temptation to use automated software that adds friends to your FaceBook friends list. This defeats the purpose of social networking. Instead, do it the hard way. You will come to realize that the hard way really isn’t hard at all. Getting friends on FaceBook isn’t brain surgery.

The first thing to do is to join all of the Home Business groups that you can find. There are plenty of them out there. Each time you join a group, send a friend request to every single member of that group.

Certainly not all members will accept your request, but the bulk of them will. This can be a little time consuming, but it is well worth the effort in the end. This should easily net you 200 to 300 friends. Try to add at least 30 new friends each day, for the full 30 days. It’s a great idea to add friends regularly instead of trying to get 1,000 FaceBook friends in 4 days!

Once you’ve depleted the home business groups, find other groups that are related to your business.

Use your existing website to get more friends, as well as your blog. Post your FaceBook badge on your website and blog. Make a blog post and invite your readers to add you as a friend on Facebook. If you Twitter, tell your followers to add you on FaceBook. If you have a mailing list, send out a note and invite them to join you on FaceBook.

Again, it will take a concentrated effort on your part, but it is well worth it in the end, and if you are devoted, you absolutely will have more than 500 friends in less than 30 days, and if you want that superstar celebrity status at FaceBook, you can continue to add new friends for an additional 30 days to reach that goal.

FaceBook is a great tool to grow your business opportunity from home.

Make sure you remain consistent and develop long term relationships with your FaceBook friends!

Marketing your Multilevel Marketing business on the internet is the best thing you could ever do for your business. There are a variety of rewards to working online it’s incredible. However, the internet is also filled with a ton of things, that if you’re not careful, will suck you in, and slow down your progress. Here are a few pitfalls to stave off when working online.

1. Searching The Net

It’s simple to get interested in looking at all the unique websites out there. It’s also easy to sit down at your computer and 2 hours later look up and find that you haven’t completed squat. Since it’s so easy to do you’ll want to have a clear idea of what sites you want to visit when you get online.

If you don’t, you’ll find yourself going from site to site and not getting anything done on your business. If you’re like most people you don’t have a lot of free time anyway so the time you do have, needs to be used efficiently.

2. Research

It’s all-important to have knowledge about the things you’re doing and it’s beneficial to continue to learn. However, if all you’re doing on the net is researching HOW to work online, that’s not so acceptable.

Research should at most take up 20% of your time online. The other portion should be spent actually growing your business.

3. Writing

Writing for the internet isn’t exactly like writing for the Wall Street Journal. Yes, it should make sense, and yes it should be spell checked, but don’t spend too much time on a blog post or an article. Make it as solid as you can, but try to spend no more than an hour on an article and no more than fifteen to thirty minutes on a blog post.

4. Forums

Forums are a extraordinary place to gain data and study. All The Same, they can also be a place where individuals talk a lot about working but do very little of it. Don’t get absorbed into the silly chitchat of an online forum. Go there ask your question, maybe answer a a couple, and if there is an ad posting section post your ad… then exit!

5. Myspace/ Facebook

Very similar to the forum problem, social networking sites like Myspace, Facebook and Twitter allow you to connect with your family, friends and business associates. It’s also a most-valuable site to market your MLM internet marketing business. Simply make sure you are spending more time on the actual marketing than the social aspect of these fun and habit-forming sites.

6. Youtube

When you see a video on Youtube they automatically show you a few more that you might be interested in as well. That can lead to you watching video after video after video. It’s a lot of fun, but a huge waste of time and something that’s not making you any money, so be conscientious or you might end up wasting 3 hours of your life you’ll never get back!

If you quash these 6 major pitfalls you’ll be able to get a whole lot more done online and your business will grow a lot smoother.
