Getting free network marketing leads is a desire you and everyone else involved in network marketing has. Nowadays, most people are aware that web 2.0 (aka social network sites) such as O Jeez, Facebook, MySpace, Direct Matches, etc. are great place to network as well as build your business.
The problem that occurs is that most people fail to use social networking sites to their advantage. As Mike Lewis in his article entitled, ‘Social Networking. . . . . . and The Law of Rejection’ says:
“Surely there can’t be anyone who is involved in any social network who has yet to discover the law of attraction?

Then why is it that so many social networkers are so hung up on becoming experts at the Law of Rejection?

The Law of Attraction is all about creating an environment that position you as a very attractive person, it’s about becoming a very attractive person. It’s about showing up in a way that draws people toward you because of WHO your are, NOT what you do.”

Now, for some, those words were very painful to hear. The good news is that you can learn to use the Law of Attraction. If you learn how to do this right, you will not have any problems generating free networking marketing leads for your MLM.

Let me give you a few tips on how to use your membership in social networking sites as a way to attract others to you.

*Do NOT pitch. As a member of any social networking site, I am sure you have noticed things in people’s profiles such as how their biz is the greatest on the planet, how you will make thousands of dollars quickly, etc. When you create your profile, do not pitch like you see other people doing. All you need to do is share your story, give a few personal notes about yourself, and then offer networking and friendship to others. That’s it. Make sure you include your picture as most people want to see the person they are connecting with. You can put an eye catching signature file in your profile as a way to share in a non-sales way, what your biz is. People will respond to this approach much, much better and will desire to connect with you.

*Offer something of value. Give away your free report, a free ebook, a free something that can benefit people in their business. This can be a tool that introduces people to what you do in a non-threatening way; they won’t think you are trying to get them in on your deal.

*Ask questions as you invite people to connect with you. You can build up a friendship list pretty quickly in sites such as Adland Pro, Direct Matches, Myspace, Facebook, etc. . It is best to contact the people who have joined in the last 24 hours since they will be sure to get your message. For the people who have had memberships longer and use free accounts, many will not see your email since they are only allotted a few free messages when they first join.

After you ask the person to connect with you, also send them a brief email. In this email, tell a little about yourself, comment on their profile, welcome them, and then ask what are their two biggest challenges as they build a biz. You will find that people will respond to you. This is a great way to begin to network and develop friendships.

Using social networking sites are a great way to not only meet new people, but also find free networking marketing leads for your MLM home based business. The people who do ask questions will be the ones who are serious and trust you because you have a solid relationship with them.
What a great way to build a biz in a relaxed, fun, and stress free way!

Every professional networker desires to build an MLM leads list. For some, building an MLM local leads list is even more desirable. Now, some people will opt to buy leads. However, being a savvy networker, you know that it works much better if you generate your own leads. If you are one who falls into this category, here is how you can do this the easy way.

I’m sure you realize there are numerous restaurants in your town that attract a lunch crowd. You may even be part of a crowd that frequents a particular place. What you need to do is pick a deli or restaurant. It can be the place you frequent or another. Once you have done that, approach the owner or manager and ask if it is Ok for you to give away free lunches. Do you think he or she is going to turn this down? Hardly! Why? This method will increase traffic plus put more money into their pocket.

Once you get permission, create a sign that says “Win a Free Lunch”. Then, create entry forms that say “Win a free lunch. All you have to do is finish the sentence ‘I hate my job because. . .’.Make sure you leave your valid email address in case you win”.

Next, get a bowl, box, or whatever you want to use and get things set up at the restaurant. Now, how many people would love to get a free lunch? Everybody! How many people hate their job? Plenty! Do you think some would be interesting in hearing about how they can earn an extra paycheck per week and get out of the rat race? Of course! So, for everyone who fills out an entry form you will be building not only your MLM list, but also your MLM local leads list. Even better, this would be a list unique to you and targeted.

Each week, pull out a winner and notify them then by email or with a call that they won the free lunch and when the can cash it in. For everyone who didn’t win, you can send them an email that notifies them that though they are not the winner, they did win second place and will get a consolation prize. What to give them? It is up to you. Perhaps it can be a copy of Tom Schreiter’s book “How to Get Rich without Winning the Lottery”. Maybe it can be a brochure, a newsletter about the power of residual income, a free product sample from your company, etc. Make sure you also tell them to email you the contact information so they can get their free item and also so they can be entered in next week’s drawing. You then would send the free item to the people who respond to your email and only enter in the next week’s drawing those who respond. Continue to do this until everyone has received a free lunch.

As you can see, you can use this technique many times over. Even better, it is an inexpensive way to build a MLM leads list and local MLM leads list. Plus, you will come into contact with some great people.
