Once Again, The Topic Of Teamwork
Back to the topic of teambuilds!
Looking back over my earlier posts, at least 2 of
the teams I was working with are no more - 4u2earn
has closed its doors - they were forced to move
their server and didn't get a good enough response
from members to reactivate their accounts... end of
story.
The other, the BEST team, is still floundering in
the water - the main leaders have deserted the team,
but there are still some members, myself included,
who would like to resurrect this team - great concept,
large member base... who knows, it could still come
back to life.
Here are some of my general ramblings on teamwork,
and whether, in a network marketing community, it
is worth pursuing.
One of the big problems for network marketers is
recruiting people to fill a downline. Not many of
us are natural leaders capable of inspiring huge
numbers of people to join us in every business
opportunity we decide to promote. And most of us
shy away from harrassing our families and friends
until the point that they join our business just
to get us out of their houses (and cross us off
their birthday card list before leaving our 'best
business ever' before we've made any money out of
them!)
So what is the answer to this perennial problem?
One solution is to work with a team, where all
members join under one link so that there is even
distribution of members across the whole team.
But this also has its problems because some team
members will always take the easy way out and not
promote, in the belief that the team will do all
the work and they will reap the rewards. From my
experience though this is what a lot of so-called
marketers will do anyway - sign up and rely on
spillover from their upline to get them the sign-
ups they need. These people obviously don't take
their business seriously and are only along for
the ride, and will probably never make any real
money in business because they are not prepared
to work for it. Anyone who tells you it is
possible to make a lot of money without putting
in any effort is not telling the whole story!
Do I believe in working with teams then? Yes,
definitely, but be careful who you work with
(this is true in everything though!)
As you will know from earlier posts I work with
a team to build F5M-MC, and I also work with a
team called Wealth4Everyone, which is a community
of online marketers working to build residual
income in a number of programs. If you are
interested, you can join our community for free,
take a look around, and see if you like what we
are doing. There is no requirement to get in-
volved in all the programs, you can just sign
up for one or two of the cyclers to start with
(all low-cost one-off fees) and see if you like
the way we work.

Don't Pay Over The Odds For Your Autoresponder
Anyone marketing anything online, be it network marketing products, affiliate products, or a membership site, can't survive without an autoresponder - it should be one of the first things you get set up when you start an online business.
I tried a few different ones at the beginning, including a free script that nearly got my website taken offline because it was faulty and spammed thousands of people (BIG mistake!) I also tried a few that cost less than the industry standard (aweber) but they were just so complicated that I gave up with them after a while.
Then I had the good fortune to discover european safelist, when they were just starting out. As well as being a super responsive safelist (with, as the title suggests, a large European client base) they offer an autoresponder with their upgrades, which start at just $3/month for the silver, although I recommend at least going pro for $7 so you get the monthly mlm leads and free solo ad.
This has proved to be an excellent source of advertising for me - the text and banner ads get a high click through rate, as do the safelist emails. Membership has grown to over 5000 in a relatively short time, and continues to grow, thanks in large part to the good support offered by the site.
I won't try and kid you that the autoresponder is particularly easy to set up - like all online systems it takes a bit of getting used to (or is that just my age showing??!) After using it for several years though I now find it really easy, and there's a user guide (written by yours truly!) to help you get started. I highly recommend this one!

Instant Blog Subscribers - Just Launched
Instant Blog Subscribers launched this week to much fanfare,
and claims that people have already made money from using it.
I only signed up yesterday, so am yet to see the results, but
the claims of it being easy to use and set up are not exagger-
ated. As soon as you set up your blog (very simple to do) an
entry is automatically posted on your behalf (proclaiming how
wonderful IBS is!) so at least your blog isn't left blank
while you sort yourself out and write your first genuine post.
In addition there is a downline builder, and you can add your
own program to this. And if you upgrade you get loads of bonus
advertising, but free is good too.
So far so good - I'll keep you posted on how things work out
with this!
