Do MLM Marketing Systems Really Possess The Secrets To Your Online Business Success?

By Howe Russell


While your head probably tells you that you need to be ready for the long haul if you have ambitions to work for yourself one a full-time basis, the internet is full of temptation. Everywhere you look, from Empower Network to Visalus, you'll find marketing systems claiming to offer you a short cut to success, or teach you valuable secrets which the so-called guru's don't want you to discover.

As you have probably guessed, of course, your first instincts were right. There is no secret to overnight success and anybody claiming they can teach you it for a certain price is lying to you. If there was a secret, it certainly wouldn't be a secret any more.

If these 'fast track' systems are misleading, though, why are there so many of them and why do they each claim to be the solution to your online business frustrations?

The fact is most home businesses fail to succeed into the long-term. Over 80% of businesses go bust within the first three years. Of course, these statistics are lower than those in the real world, where over 90% of business start-ups fail to see out the first 3 years. But they are disturbing nonetheless.

When you add to this fact that over 90% of the affiliate marketers using home businesses fail to make any money, the future can look bleak. Such was the nature of online business in general, that it only took so long before some marketers began realizing there was a much bigger opportunity than simply working for an affiliate program. That opportunity lay in offering training to other affiliate marketers.

With most network marketers getting nowhere, there is definitely an opening in the market for those who have the knowledge to offer extensive training to those in need of help. After all, only a select few world leading sponsors are known to help their own teams, with most keeping their secrets to themselves. [

By providing a system to these struggling affiliates there is a huge opportunity to make money. Why work with an affiliate program when most of them fail? Why not cash in on the opportunity and work with every single struggling affiliate marketer, which is over 90% of the industry, surely this represents a bigger earning opportunity? This is the thinking behind these systems and, in theory, it does make a lot of sense.

Of course, this is the real world and you should expect that there are downfalls to any plan. There are so many of these systems available now that many of them have begun installing affiliate plans of their own. This is to allow their members to earn a commission for introducing other members. They do this, of course, because it means their members will promote their service for them in a bid to earn a slice of the pie each month. It's also down to the fact that they want to get themselves established as the top dogs in their niche,with so many other systems claiming to do the same thing. It doesn't take long for this marketing to get out of control, with many systems promising a seemingly easy ride.

Those who are successful in the home business industry know that it doesn't come cheap. There isn't a free ride or a 'fast track', but there are many people out there who are prepared to cash in if you continue to be nave. If you are in an affiliate program like Empower Network and are wondering which training system you need to buy, the first thing you should do is learn the principles of running an online businesses. That won't cost you any money and will teach you how to manage your time effectively.
