3 Sources Of Network Marketing Leads You’ll Never Hear About From Your Upline
If you are like most in the home business industry, you join very excitedly…eager and anxious to be a success and one of the first things you are told is to go out and get network marketing leads to present your business opportunity or product information to.
Typically, most uplines will you you to write down a list of 100 friends and family and start calling them, go hang out at coffee shops, or perhaps even purchase network marketing leads from a company and start calling them.
However, it today’s day and age it isn’t necessary to use those antiquated methods. Instead, the internet provides a literally limitless opportunity to generate leads, strictly from the internet.
Here are 3 ways to generate free network marketing leads from the comfort of your own home and the Internet that your upline will never tell you about:
#1- The first MLM Lead Generation method is to pay for traffic and capture a prospect’s information using something known as a lead capture page. Some typical ways to do this are through pay per click advertising through places like Google, Yahoo, and Bing search engines. You can also purchase advertising on another person’s email list, commonly referred to as ezine advertising.
#2 – Another much-talked about method for network marketing lead generation is through social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, or YouTube. This method has especially come into vogue the last few years as the popularity of those sites, and the amount of time prospects spend on them has increased.
However, when you are generating free network marketing leads from social media sources, you need to think more in terms of presenting valuable information to a specific audience and entice them to research what you have to offer on another sites where you can capture their information.
#3- Finally, another excellent technique is to harness the immense amount of people who spend time searching for solutions on the search engines like Google and Yahoo.
This is commonly referred to as search engine optimization and it is a process by which you get your website in front of specific searchers looking for certain types of information, also known as keywords.
These are just 3 general ways to harness the Internet as a source of leads for your MLM business or product. The internet is still virtually an untapped resource in the network marketing community and you would be well served to learn how to use it.

Free Traffic System For Network Marketers
As a network marketer, I am always on the lookout for the best types of traffic systems to use, but always with an eye towards which ones best fit into my funded proposals.
There are a lot of free traffic system courses and services out there, but hardly any have an MLM component to them. IF you’re a team leader building or looking to add an income stream to your funded proposal, it always makes sense to incorporate something that has an MLM component to it.
With network marketing business models, the power of this business model is in the leveraging of your efforts and other’s too. Therefore, whatever traffic system you recommend should have built-in leveraging components to it.
In other words, if you recommend a free traffic system to someone in your downline or on your list, you want to ensure that there’s multi-layered benefits to getting people into that system.
- You want to make sure you get more than just an affiliate commission
- You want to ensure that the people who join under you benefit your funded proposals and overall bottom line with added traffic, backlinks, lower-tiered commissions etc…
- You want to leverage your recommendations to the fullest, which is why you should recommend traffic generation systems and/or services that do all of these aforementioned things.
- finally, you want to make sure that these free traffic systems actually do work for getting traffic for yourself and the people who signed up under you.
I’ve come across 2 Traffic Systems with MLM components to them.
- The first one didn’t even have a free option, and their service was questionable.
- The other service I came across does have a free option that has all the MLM components and benefits listed in the bullet points above.
The system I recommend adding into your funded proposal is called Free Traffic System:
For a quick look on the differences between FREE and PRO membership – look at this table I scraped from their site.
Pro Membership PricePrice Option #1 – Pay $47 Monthly
Price Option #2 – Pay $497 LIFETIME Access
(Lifetime = NO Monthly Payments)
Once again, you are not obliged to become a PRO member, you can stay FREE as long as you want. But if you are ready for a real fight and want to build backlinks like no one from your competitors – then PRO membership is your real helper in that case.
Right after you register in Free Traffic System, you become a FREE member by default. And those who want to become PRO members can do that from inside the members area (you will find more details about it on the Upgrade to PRO page of your members area) or by accepting our special proposition that you will see right after the registration.
NOTE:
Look at the BOLDED MAROON section in the table above. If you recommend people to use the service and they only become free members, you still benefit via additional backlinks.
That’s what the power of funded proposals is all about! This is a perfect fit and addition for any network marketer’s funded proposal: you get more backlinks, traffic, and income from recommending this service to others.
Internet Network Marketing Lead Generation Pt 2.
In the first post in the Internet Network Marketing Lead Generation series, we discussed how lead generation can be boiled down to simple website traffic generation.
In order to get website traffic you want to target certain keywords developed from a keywords list and also to write about topics of interest that are not easily divulged by keyword tools (keyword tools don’t know what your niche is all about!)
So, once you have a general idea of what to write about, what’s the method for writing in such a way that you get the desired traffic?
1- Article marketing
2- Blogging
3- Press Releases
4- Forums
5- Video Marketing
1- Article marketing:
It’s very important that you incorporate article marketing into your portoflio of traffic generation methods because there’s a ton of valuable information to be gleaned from just one article directory.
If you’re not sure what to write about, go to the network marketing category of EzineArticles.com and see what’s being published there, and take special note of the Most Viewed in Last 90 days section for this category, then go to any article and scroll down until you see how many views that page received so far, and when it was published.
Free Keyword ResearchSo, if an article was published one month ago and got 30 page views, then that PAGE gets 1 visitor a day on average. If the article was really highly ranked, like position 1-3 then you pretty much know how many daily searches there are for that keyword.
This is the reality of keyword research as it boils down to your main concern, which is,
“how many visitors a day will I receive by being highly ranked for this keyword?”
THEN…
Go to the RSS Feed or author profile for the authors who wrote thos earticles and see if they write a lot of articles. If these are prolific article publishers in the network marketing niche, get their RSS feed fo rthe eZA articles sent to you so you know what they’re writing about.
THEN…
Write article son the same topic. There’s a reason they’re writing those articles; they’re prolific article writers who are “in the know” about this niche and you can glom off their knowledge this way to have ready-made topics to write about.
What I do is once a month I go look at the Most Viewed Articles in Last 90 days for the network marketing category and usually 85% of those articles there are something I can write articles for or outsource to someone.
2- Blogging:
I prefer blogging because it’s an easy publishing platform to use especially WordPress. This is where my best content is written by my own hand and where I have more control over how I write and what I link to (other post son site or affiliate links or squeeze pages).
Your self-hosted blog is where you get a chance to showcase yourself (You Inc.) and over time it will be your #1 network marketing asset for your business. As time goes on, you could even stop the article writing and just spend all your time blogging if you do the proper SEO practices for your site/blog.
3- Press Releases:
Press releases are easier to get done that article marketing because their approval process is almost instaneous and in most cases it’s free to do. As my friend Alan Turnquist is fond of saying,
“You should write a press release whenever anything noteworthy or positive happens in your business”
Forums:
There are network marketing forums like BetterNetworker where you can write articles. Since BN is an established authoritative site and a lot of pre-existing traffic coming going to it, your articles here will get ready by other network marketers. It’s also a great place to network with other like-minded people, which is what this is all about, right?
Video marketing:
Do the same thing here as you do for blogging and article marketing; review other programs, products, tools and share your network marketing tips.
Internet Network Marketing Lead Generation
Since SEO Networker came out and it’s so expensive, I figured I’d show you how to get some leads generated via internet network marketing.
Sometimes people make things seem more difficult than they are.
“How Do I get network marketing leads?”… Many people ask
“Same as you would in any other niche”, I answer…
If you have any experience at all with internet marketing and niche marketing then you should treat network marketing just like any other niche you are entering into.
First off STOP thinking of everything in terms of leads and prospects.
START thinking of things in terms of subscribers, website traffic visitors, RSS readers of your blog etc…
What gets you network marketing leads via the internet is website traffic, and the more traffic you get the more subscribers, potential customers and team-mates you acquire…
So how to get traffic to a site about network marketing?
- Write about the generic stuff that related to your niche (network marketing) based off a keywords list.
- Write about stuff that doesn’t show up in keyword tools, like
- new program launches,
- inspirational stuff to motivate readers,
- reviews on MLM and Network marketing business opportunities
- reviews on any of the 50 or so funded proposal programs out there
How does on to keyword research for the network marketing “niche”?
Here, I’ve done some research for you using Google Keyword Tool and the Google Toolbar suggestion feature.
You just type in keywords and it auto suggests other keywords and they correlate to what the keyword tool itself shows for high volume related keywords.
This is all right at your finger tips, yes!

Network marketing keywords list
Now, this list and all those related sub-keywords are based off only the 1 “seed” keyword you started with, so if/when you dig down and find other keywords to target you’ll quickly have a list of things to write about.
However, I have always found that doing keyword research is great, but it has ALWAYS worked out better for me when I just “knew” my niche, knew what they wanted to talk about, what their concerns were, what’s happening now etc… and then just writing naturally about it.
So, I find it best to just write for the people/visitors and not just target keywords because there’s supposedly some large numbers of traffic that should come when I target those phrases.
And since you should know your niche if you want to be successful at it, write about less generic terms like Offline Leads Generation, Drop Cards, Free Robert Kiyosaki CD, etc…
