MLM traditionalists would argue that prospects come from our social circle, but has the internet and social media changed everything?
Nobody can really argue that the internet has not had a fundamental effect as well as a social shift in network marketing. We work online more than ever before and even myself have transferred a lot of my work online. However, with all the other social media platforms and forums:
- Is there any point in having a social media platform exclusively for network marketers?
- Are network marketers really looking for another business?
It is an interesting question, but after much thought it seems clear that having a forum that gives the network marketer an unfettered voice about their business is very empowering.
Of course if you are reading this article you already see the power of working on a MLM social media platform with MLM Social. This means that you have realized that once are MLM business is building well, we will be also considering second or even third income streams.
Having a social media MLM gateway will give you targeted business leads from the start.
For me the main issue when prospecting is trying to target individuals who are already interested in the concept of network marketing. Yes, many may tell you that they want to start a business from home, but that is a very different story to starting an MLM business. I am sure most of you who have been in network marketing for a while have realized that the same old question arises.
- Is this a scam?
- Is this a pyramid scheme?
- Are you trying to take my money?
So, to avoid these silly questions it would be great if there was a place that allowed network marketers to speak to others in the MLM industry.
Apart from MLM Social, are there any other MLM social media platforms worth considering?
Yes, one that I have found very useful as well as FREE is a platform called MLM gateway. It has been around for some years and from my experience works very well.
How does MLM gateway work?
So, everyone understands how this platform works. I will go through the process from joining to setting up everything and finally using the tool the site offers.
Setting up your account:
Setting up an account is very simple.
- Subscribe by using your best email address.
- Add your details.
- Add you social media pages
- Upload and image
Now you are ready to go.
Using MLM gateway:
Once you have joined you will notice that you have 5 points or credits in your account. These credits allow you to contact other network marketers on the platform. You can contact anyone on the platform and to allow you to target them better you can read their profile as well as what they are interested in and what they are not. It costs one credit to reach out to someone on the platform.
How do you get more credits?
There is a few ways of betting more credits such as:
- If you write a business announcement you will get 5 credit (A business announcement is an article)
- If you recruit others to MLM gateway you will get 10 credits.
- Alternatively you can upgrade to a premium or purchase credits.
Is there any benefit to recruiting others?
If you are active on this platform, such as writing content, it is very likely people will subscribe and join your team. The main benefits beyond being able to reach out to other members for free is being able to earn commissions from their sales. For example, you can earn anything between 35 to 50% commission.
Do I need to use a mailing or email service to reach out to prospects?
No, unless you already have a system set up.
The platform offers a very simple mailing tool. You just add the email address of people you think would be interested in getting free network marketing business leads.
Does MLM gateway pay?
Yes!
One you have set up your bank account, any commissions will be sent automatically at the end of the month once you have earned 100$ or more.
What type of people are on this platform?
The name would suggest that only people in MLM will be using this platform. Yes, of course, many from the MLM industry use this platform, but also affiliate and internet marketers. Also, anyone in online marketing as well as those interested in sales and cryptocurrency.
Are there other ways of contacting or reaching out to prospects on this platform?
Yes!
This platform offers a click based banner advertising system. You can decide how many credits you want to use per hit and on the whole the system works very well.
Can I upgrade my MLM gateway account at any time?
Yes, if you feel that after using the FREE account that you could benefit from opening the premium version go ahead. I don’t want to say that it is a must to upgrade, but if you feel it is going to benefit you, go ahead. However, many start off with a FREE account and continue to enjoy reaching out to prospects and creating content.
Note: the creation of content on business announcements also helps with recruitment. Once your content is indexed and online prospects can read them easily. In addition, they may find that they are interested in having targeted MLM prospects and join your team.
MLM gateway is a simple and powerful social media platform that works.
I have been using this platform for sometime and in the time I have:
- Recruited people into my main business.
- Recruited people into my secondary business.
- Been able to do free advertising.
- Built a large targeted MLM leads list for FREE.
- Been getting paid commissions.
Would I recommend this MLM social media platform?
Yes!
MLM gateway is a simple social media platform that works that will allow you to connect with high quality MLM leads. It is not pretending to be anything more than it is. So, if you are in any way a network marketer, online marketer or anything else in the home business world, this platform is for you.
