New Age Internet MLM (the lazy way) - Part 3 : MLM

Example #2: Targeted Market Hideouts

Another way of finding prospects is to hunt them down at their on-line hideouts. This means finding ways to advertise on highly targeted web sites. Typically, you’ll want to search for forums, bulletin boards or groups dedicated to your target market.

For example, if you wanted to target prospects for a music-related MLM opportunity, you could go to several types of forums:

º A general business opportunity or MLM forum.

º Most any kind of music-related forum, depending on the nature of the MLM product.

Here’s something off the top of my head, but let’s say you’re in a MLM business that sells guitar strings. The best place to go would be forums centered on the subject of guitars or guitar players.

You’d first join the forum and fill out your profile. You’ll have a spot in your profile where you can type in what’s known as a "signature file". Signature files can include most anything favorite quotes, links to other sites and, yes, even advertising.

These signature files are appended to the bottom of every post you make. This is where you’d put your advertisement. You might have something like this:

"You know you’ve gotta buy new strings anyways...
so, why not make some money selling them, too?"

That’s it! You don’t have to pitch the program directly. In fact, you’ll want to avoid doing so. The best way to get people interested in clicking on your advertisement is by participating in the forum as a regular member. Talk about your favorite guitar players, or help someone learn how to play the Blues.

Of course, you aren’t limited just to forums. In a strong market, you’ll find plenty of content-focused web sites with opportunities for text-link and banner advertising.

The overall point I want you to take away from this is that you have an almost endless supply of leads available to you on-line, and just as many creative ways of luring those leads to your web site, and onto your list.
