How To Establish Yourself As A Top Sponsor Within Any Affiliate Program

By Howe Russell


If you've ever looked at a company like Vitel or Empower Network, you have probably wondered why some affiliates are able to make money online far easier than others. Today we'll show you how to establish yourself as a top sponsor in any home business this year.

Before you can get anywhere, you need to start embracing the truth. Over 95% of people who try to earn a living via their computer do not succeed. That's a fact.

So if a small percentage of individuals are succeeding, how are they doing it? What 'secret' do they know that the majority of others don't?

There are a number of things you should be doing if you are looking to establish yourself as a top sponsor within any affiliate program, all of which we will run through today. The first thing a top internet marketer must do is realize that there are no guarantees. Nothing is going to change your life for you. Every top sponsor in every home business realizes this, and they aren't afraid to work hard on their business. The common trend among people who complain about a lack of results is a lack of action.

Most folks overlook the first and most important step to becoming your own boss.

If you were starting a business in your local high street, what is the first thing you would do? You would put together a business plan to get your idea down on paper and lay out some long-term goals. That is exactly what you should do with your online business, too. The problem with the MLM industry is that it plays on the idea of treating your business as a casual, part-time hobby. Those who are successful do not do this.

One of the biggest issues in home business is that people don't work consistently enough. Setting out a plan at the beginning will help you break that bad habit and treat your goals seriously.

But with potentially thousands of other people working as affiliates in the same company you choose, how on Earth are you supposed to get noticed? Look at the most common problem and use it to your own advantage. In MLM and home business, the biggest problem in the industry is poor sponsors. People simply do not help others to succeed. By providing useful tips and friendly, helpful content you will not find it difficult to attract new customers and also build a large following of existing affiliates who will begin to wish they had connected with you when they first joined.

You don't need to get too technical, a simple blog would be a good start so people can find you in search engines. Use free marketing resources to establish your brand. Everybody has access to tools like Facebook, Twitter and Youtube yet very few affiliate marketers make the most of them.

Notice how some folks are able to build great social media followings and enhance their reputation, whereas other people really struggle with the concept. That's because a lot of people have no structure or plan to their business. They spend hours trying to multi-task and there is no connection between the things they are doing, leaving them feeling flustered and lost. Social media needs to work as one big, powerful tool in order to succeed. Make your blog your central point. All social media resources lead people back to your blog, which not only keeps things nice and simple but also increases the reputation of your blog as a reliable source of information. [

Also, by spreading your wings into territory most marketers don't understand how to use you'll be able to reach previously untapped markets. While your blog will allow your content to be found in Google, a Youtube channel will allow you to feature videos in your posts and also have content that can be found on Youtube itself. Youtube is the internet's 2nd biggest search engine, so it's power is not to be underestimated. Fan pages on Facebook and Twitter allow for personal connection with people looking to ask questions, as well as providing you with a ready-made audience each time you want to share new content.

The trick is tying it all together. Featuring a video in your blog content not only makes it more engaging for the reader, it also increases the rank of that particular video in Youtube's own search engine so you'll reach more viewers, too. Featuring prominent buttons which allow readers to follow you on Facebook and Twitter will allow anyone who found your content helpful to easily follow you elsewhere. People spend far more time on social networks that they'd honestly care to admit, so don't underestimate the power of a nicely timed 'share' on your fan page.

So while you'll often hear stories of people who spend all day online and struggle to get anywhere, the truth is you don't necessarily need to work harder. You may just need to work a little smarter.

So the key to standing out in any home based business isn't skill, knowledge or technical ability. It's people skills, just like in the real world. By helping others, you'll notice how much easier it is for you to make money online regardless of whether you work with an affiliate plan like Empower Network or a home based plan like Avon. The easiest way to get to where you want to be in life is to help others get to where they want to be, too.
