If you are new to MLM my advise is try to start with the best books on network marketing in the industry and online.
Education and development is the key to success. It is if you are a business, a company or even a country. Consider for a minute countries such as Finland and the other Scandinavian countries, they all hold education and personal development in high standing. Taking Finland as an example, they have one of the most highly educated societies in the world as well as the happiest.
Of course, this has nothing to do the MLM, but does show that education has a big impact on our lives. Education is a stepping stone towards bigger things. So, if you are serious about becoming a big in the MLM industry the reading one of the best books on network marketing in the industry is key.
So, what does education and development do for us as individuals?
- It gives us choices.
- It allows us to choose our own destiny
- It allows us to be the best we can be
Network marketing if we look beyond the business aspect is a personal development program that allows us to learn while we earn. However, being able to educate and develop ourselves into a successful entrepreneur is sometimes a challenging journey.
Where could I find information before the internet?
In the early days of network marketing there wasn’t much to offer in regards to books about MLM. Of course there were a few mentors such as Tom “Big Al” Schreiter, which even today has a resonance among the faithful. The main issue for those new to MLM is that no-one seemed to be telling them what to do. And when I say “what to do” I mean the practical tasks needed to build a network marketing business from scratch.
Imagine for a minute. Someone offers you a business opportunity and for just a moment you see yourself as a business owner. The excitement kicks in and you say “Lets do it!”. As the weeks go by you have realized that you have no idea or skills on how to run any business let alone a home based business. The person who enrolled you promised to help and support you and in some way they have, but still you ask yourself, “what should I be doing today?”
The simple solution
You may have heard successful entrepreneur mention that to be successful we need to:
- Take action
- Set goals
- Make a plan
- Work on it everyday until we succeed
Now, this is a great solution, but in my opinion, it is still quite abstract.
- What action?
- What goal?
- What plan?
When it all comes down to it, nothing trumps execution

The skills and knowledge found in the top MLM books
The reality is, that if you are someone without any business skills or the knowledge of how network marketing works, it can be a very confusing time. However, one key strategy which never fails is to take action as I mentioned earlier. I know this sounds very simplistic and abstract but without action nothing will happen.
What does it mean to take action?
The concept of taking action can mean anything depending on what you are intending to achieve.
Such as:
- Learning new information about MLM
- Reading an eBook about building a MLM business online
- Creating your warm leads list
- Building a MLM blog
Regardless what actions you take, without action there is no chance of building a successful MLM business. To make taking action as easy as possible, read this eBook called, “Beginners guide to online prospecting in network marketing”. It is a task based workbook that takes you through the tasks you need to be doing everyday to achieve success in MLM.
Why is there a need for MLM beginner business books?
One complaint I have with some MLM leaders is that they seem to be holding back information about their marketing methods. Why they do this I do not know. Maybe the fear that you will use their marketing system better than they can. Or use it with another company different to the one they enrolled you in. This is not looking at the big picture. We should be in this together, everyone developing and gaining success.
For me sharing my system is the risk I take to be successful in MLM. So, sharing information with my downline is a two way street, with us both learning from each other.
My downlines success is also my success, financially, emotionally and with a sense of pride that I was able to change the life of an individual for the better.
MLM beginner business books to MLM eBooks
As the internet became more widely used the choice of MLM books has become more common. This has much to do with self publishing and eBook technologies online, but also the affordability of eBook selling platforms such as Lulu, Payhip and even Amazon.
However, with choice comes a lot of overrated and uninformative products that don’t really offer the reader anything new. So, that is when I decided to write my own MLM book that is simple, practical and accessible to everyone including the beginner. This eBook takes the reader through tasks with short assignments that finally will give them all the skills and knowledge needed for running a MLM business online.
Why run an MLM business online?
This is a comment I received on LinkedIn when someone read a review of my eBook and later purchased my eBook.
I love this article Steven, thank you for posting this. I feel as if I’ve gone through all of my “warm list” of friends and families who know me and I sold the product that I truly believe in to only 1 person who later because of a few outside influences had stopped buying it. It’s been failure after failure for me and so I’m searching for a new way to talk and reach out to people. I’ve come to the conclusion that online prospecting might be a good fit for me. So again I really appreciate your article.

I believe she has said it all.
The days of the hard sale and annoying family and friends is a thing of the past. The internet has allowed us to create a more passive way of building a network marketing business. Personally, if your family and friends want to join your business they will see what you are doing and ask. I have never asked anyone who had not asked me first, because they are well aware of what I am doing. Finally, press-ganging anyone into buying your products or joining your business is not a sustainable way of building a business. While someone who has searched for what you have to offer. Then subscribes to your mailing list or sends you an email has the right motivation to succeed. In addition, qualifies to become a partner in your network marketing business.
