Network
marketing, also known as multi
level marketing (or MLM), comes
in many forms. One of the most
popular network marketing methods
is selling by brochure, and one
of the biggest companies using
this method is Avon, the worldwide
cosmetics company. The Avon rep
distributes her brochures around
the neighborhood, collects them
again in a few days together with
the orders, and, at the end of
the 3 week campaign, she passes
her orders to Avon. After a few
days the orders arrive, she (or
he!) delivers the orders, collects
her money and, after deducting
her commission, pays the remainder
of the money to Avon.
If you are distributing brochures
in this way there is a good
way to double the money you
make.
Around ninety five percent
of the time taken to sell through
brochures is spent traveling
from house to house. When you
get to the house, instead of
placing one brochure in the
postbox, try two different ones!
It takes very little extra work
and can result in double the
sales.
It seems so obvious yet so
few people do this, there are
certainly none in our area or
where my friends and family
live. Instead people deliver
just the one, maybe feeling
some sort of loyalty to the
company producing the brochure
- 'I'm an Avon Lady' or whatever.
That's OK, but how about loyalty
to you and your family? You
owe it to yourself and your
loved ones to maximize your
income.
Of course there is no point
delivering two brochures that
sell the same or similar things.
But there are different ones
available: Avon is well known
for its cosmetics, and there
are various other ones: vitamins,
household goods etc.
Two different brochures will
bring you more money, and don't
forget your down lines: your
team members will be happier
if their earnings increase and
they will be more likely to
stay in your team. Think double!
