Mailing List Magic – How to Get More Leads for Your MLM Business
November 4, 2008
Would you like to get more quality leads for your MLM and network marketing business? Of course, what a silly question! Good leads are the life and energy of your business. Everybody in MLM and network marketing wants more leads.
Building a mailing list is one of the most effective ways to promote yourself and your business. Many of your future downline associates will be people you contact and follow up with consistently over time. Some of your prospects won’t be ready to roll right away. Keeping in touch is vital.
There are different ways you can build a mailing list.
- create a free report or ebook that offers valuable information about succeeding in MLM. For example, “How to Get Free Leads” or “How to Build a Profitable MLM Business on a Low Budget” might be popular
- offer a free mini-course that shows ways to build a bigger, stronger, better business and make more money
Once you have an idea in place, set up an autoresponder account. An autoresponder collects your prospect’s name and email address, and then sends them your free report and subscribes them to your [tag-tec]mailing list[/tag-tec]. I set up a series of mini-articles on “25 Proven Ways to Achieve Greater Success and Make More Money in Network Marketing”. When a prospect signs up, they receive an email with one of the 25 ways every three days.

Advertise your free report or mini-course on your web site. If your personal site isn’t up yet, you can use paid advertising, or put something in your signature and work message boards.
Once you have a mailing list going with some subscribers, you can start sending email messages to your list whenever you want. Always offer something valuable in each email you send, in addition to any promotion you do for your [tag-tec]MLM business[/tag-tec]. Tips and useful information related to the subject of your free report or mini-course will be welcomed.
I use Aweber to maintain my mailing lists, but Get Response also gets good reviews. Visit both sites to get an idea of what they offer.
The purpose of your mailing list is to provide value and build relationships with people who will be good prospects for your MLM business opportunity. This technique won’t work miracles for you overnight – it is a slow, steady process that takes time to develop. It is well worth the time. The pros in online MLM and network marketing use mailing lists to great advantage.
