Multi-level Marketing Products-Why Don’t Distributors Retail More?


Most Network marketing products are sold at the retail level with a pretty good profit margin. This brings up the question of why people do not retail more if there is so much money to be made?

Let’s analyze that a little bit closer.

1. They do not have a high belief level in the product they are selling. Depending on the product line many Network marketing distributors do not use their own products often enough.

The best way to develop a belief level in a product is to use it and understand everything about it. This makes it much easier to retail the product both online and face to face.

2. Many Multi-level marketing products are overpriced for what you get. One problem that network marketing companies face is justifying the prices they charge. This is especially true on a product line that a person can go down to a local retailer and purchase for half the price.

Of course the draw of an Multi-level marketing business is often times the compensation plan. To be able to a pay commissions on several levels deep there has to be profit built into each level. This can present a problem for people when it comes to retailing their products.

3. Many people work full time jobs and retailing products can be time consuming. Everyone knows that the real money to be made in multi-level marketing is through building a large downline.

Ultimately the dream is to create a walkaway income that will continue long after you quit working your business. That’s what drivews people to spend most of their time on sponsoring and not on selling the product.

4. Many Network marketing marketers are not Internet oriented and therefore do not take advantage of the opportunities Internet marketing offers. This is especially true on selling products that offer autoship.

Today you can earn very good money retailing products just by getting visitors to your company provided website. If you can get the visitors you stand a great chance of making a few sales and creating repeat retail profits.

This really makes it possible for more people to do retailing if they just learn basic internet traffic generation techniques. By doing this you can earn some healthy profits on the retail level without spending time talking to people, delivering products, or picking up checks.

5. Many people do not really understand how much money there is to be made in retailing MLM products. At the very least you could fund all of your Internet marketing efforts just on the profit you make selling some products.

It is a given that a lot of volume is created off of wholesale purchases. There certainly is nothing wrong with this as you want everyone in your group to be ordering products from themselves.

However there should be more emphasis put on retailing Network marketing products. This is both for the profit it creates for your business, and for the example it sets for your downline!

Network Marketing Downline-How Far Down Does Yours Pay You?

The ability to get paid on the efforts of people underneath you is one of the primary attractions of multi-level marketing network marketing. This is known as building a multi-level marketing downline and is literally the key to developing a long term walk away income.

As you look at your compensation plan one thing to consider is how far down does the pay plan go when you are building your network marketing downline?

I have never been one to spend a lot of time analyzing an MLM compensation plan. I do think there are advantageous and disadvantages to various plans.

I personally have fallen in love with the single leg concept which makes it possible to max out a compensation plan with one leg. Very few network programs offer this yet it is a very strong recruiting tool.

The key thing to building a downline is that you will get paid on the efforts of others even if they pass you up in the various qualification levels. You do not want to be totally shut out of an income when you’re building your downline distributorship.

The other important thing is what is the product line you have to sell?

If you have a product people will use everday, even if they are no building the businss, you stand an excellent chance of being successful. As your downline grows a good majority of the distributors will stay in it and you will get paid on their purchases and sales.

Many mlm programs are based on products people use everyday. This presents a problem because you can have a large group underneath you and no volume of products being moved through it.

In that instance you are not going to get paid very far down in your downline because it doesn’t matter. Nobody is purchasing any products or selling them on a consistent basis.

This also explains the high attrition rates network marketing companies face. When the opportunity is not paying off people tend to drop out quicker unless they are attached to the product which they may continue to use.

You are going to spend the majority of your time enrolling new distributors if your goal is to create a large Multi-level marketing income. Therefore you want to have a basic understanding of how far down your compensation plan pays you.

However the majority of your time should be spent using your product, and driving visitors to your network marketing website. If you do that you will build a large group and get paid accordingly.
