Written by Michael Klimek


Aloha !!

I'm lucky to live in Maui, Hawaii. Surrounded byrepparttar "mighty blue", it's difficult not to think of waves! Will you spotrepparttar 121722 next Real Internet Tidal Wave? You can't afford not to! Read on ;-)

Did you know that many colleges and high schools in Hawaii and California offer an elective course on surfing? It's true! The classes offer tuition inrepparttar 121723 following areas:

..How to select a good surf board ..How to waxrepparttar 121724 surf board ..How to spot a great wave ..How to mountrepparttar 121725 wave ..How to getrepparttar 121726 best ride

The one thing thatrepparttar 121727 class can't teach, however, is how to CREATE A WAVE.

I wish somebody would tell this to many ofrepparttar 121728 Network Marketing companies that keep trying to recruit me into their business. Many of them intent on CREATING WAVES.

They employ all sorts of fads that actually result in little more than a ripple inrepparttar 121729 water. True WAVES are much bigger and offer an overwhelming deluge of support for certain qualities that distributors want and need fromrepparttar 121730 companies they represent.

Where arerepparttar 121731 WAVES that people are wanting and looking for in Network Marketing?

----------------------------------------- Wave 1 - Company Longevity -----------------------------------------

The newest crop of individuals exploring Network Marketing are rather astute - people who understandrepparttar 121732 need to engage in "due diligence" before making a decision to invest themselves in a particular business.

This beingrepparttar 121733 case, one ofrepparttar 121734 most pronounced waves in Network Marketing isrepparttar 121735 movement toward established companies - companies that have lasted and prospered into their fifth year and beyond.

Why this focus on company longevity? Two significant reasons immediately come to mind. First, people are fed up with losing their hard earned $, time and credibility with start ups. Second, company longevity is and indication of strong management. Few businesses in any field last four or fives years without strong management. This gives you peace of mind-security!

------------------------------------------------- Wave 2 - Consumable Product Line -------------------------------------------------

Don't let anyone tell you that products aren't important! How many times have you been directed to MLM web sites only to search in vain forrepparttar 121736 mention of any products? Click away from that site immediately. Network Marketing is a business model based onrepparttar 121737 distribution of products - so products matter. Big time.

THERE IS A GOLDMINE IN THE FOLLOW UP!

Written by Michael Taylor


Internet marketers often run into a unique challenge on their way to "leavingrepparttar rat race" for their own successful cyber-businesses.

Once their online marketing machines are running fairly smoothly, generating a healthy flow of leads generally isn't a problem. The challenge lies in generatingrepparttar 121721 most profit fromrepparttar 121722 existing flow of leads.

What's one crucial key to generating maximum profit per lead? Yes, there is a goldmine in follow up contact.

WHY WE SOMETIMES NEGLECT FOLLOW UP

The typical marketer may send one follow up email, mail out a single brochure or catalog, make one follow up call, or send out one fax, and then sit back and wait... Wait forrepparttar 121723 prospect to visit their web site, place an order, email with further questions, or take another desired action. Even seasoned marketers that are keenly aware ofrepparttar 121724 value of follow up sometimes neglect this crucial activity. I've been guilty of it at times myself.

Offline follow-up, of course, is more time-consuming and expensive than online follow up, consideringrepparttar 121725 time and expense involved in long distance phone and fax calls, mailing or shipping of marketing materials, and so forth. Due to its speed and extremely low cost, email could be consideredrepparttar 121726 ideal follow up marketing tool. However, without an efficient system for implementing email follow up, problems can still arise.

WHY THE NEED FOR FOLLOW UP?

It's a fact that most people typically don't buy (or take other desired action) as a result of an initial marketing contact, even if they are perfectly targeted, prime candidates forrepparttar 121727 offer.

What's more, it's not unusual for some follow up marketing contacts to generate approximatelyrepparttar 121728 same percentage of sales or other desired action asrepparttar 121729 initial contact. There are a variety of things that can prevent prospects from taking desired action as a result of initial marketing contact.

For instance, they may.... *have forgotten about your offer; *simply be procrastinating for one reason or another; *have misplaced your offer, or inrepparttar 121730 case of email, accidentally deleted it; *be swamped with so many other things to do that they haven't yet found enough time to act; *be distracted by "information overload" or other things in their very busy lives that they either missed your first contact entirely, or haven't had time to act on it yet; *not yet have enough information to decide what to do about your offer; *not have enough money to buy at this time; *haven't yet developed enough trust in you.... or any number of other reasons.
