Sales funnels are absolutely critical to the success of a Network Marketing or MLM business. They are the ONLY way to guarantee that you don’t go broke in this industry.
It took me a long time to learn this at a great expense not only my wallet but to my time and sanity as well.
I am going to lay out exactly what you need to have in a sales funnel and how you can get yours set up today.
If you haven’t already- watch this video first…
Now that you understand the reason for having a Sales Funnel in place, let’s get started building one…
STEP ONE: Your Business Needs A Home.
A place that you can send all of your traffic and leads.
I suggest a Nerve Center. If you are new to nerve centers, basically they are well crafted wordpress blogs customized just for you and your business.
You are on mine right now.

Step 2: Funded Proposal and Form
A funded proposal is usually generic information in the form of ebooks, training, videos, daily or weekly email series.
It is an offer that the people in your niche can’
t refuse. Something they really want and that offers amazing value, usually for free or a very low cost.
Combine that with an opt in form.
They must opt in before they get the offer!
This puts them into your email list and once they have confirmed they want to be there, they get whatever amazing offer you dangled in front of them.
Putting new leads into your list that you can market to later.
Step 3: Autorepsonders
These automated email messages will change your business!
I remember sending each email by hand to all the people I thought might be interested in my business. It took me AGES! Then I had to go back and do it all over again the next day.
With autoresponders, you put your email efforts on autopilot!
You write messages once and each person that opt ins to your list gets that message on a pre-determined day.
For example:
Sally opt ins and immediately gets your first message which is a welcome and an introduction to who you are and how you are going to help her get the results she is looking for.Then on her second day in your list, the autoresponder service sends her the next message in your series. A helpful message about a tool or service that has changed your business. You tell her how it works and then give her a link to check it out for herself.
On her 5th day in your list, she gets another pre-written message and so on.
Meanwhile, Tom has opted in as well. It’s his first day so he gets that same welcome message Sally did on her first day but it is personalized with his name instead of Sally’s.
And on it goes.
Every person that gets on your list gets the right message on the right day according the schedule you have set up in the autoresponder service. And they get them without you having to lift a finger! Oh YEAH!
Step 4: Affiliate Products, Services, Tools and Training
Earlier I mentioned a message that Sally was going to get about a product or service you liked to use in your business with a link to check it out.
Pay close attention because this is where the cash comes in…
That link takes Sally to YOUR personalized url for that product or service. When she buys it, you get a commission from that sale!
This is called affiliate marketing and it is a brilliant way for you to make money on the people who will never join your business.
The trick is finding the right products to promote and finding the right words to promote them.
First, I want to mention that this is not about “selling” something. This is about helping others find tools that will help them get what they want- a profitable online MLM business.
Always think give before you get and the “selling” will come naturally.
How do I use this tool to build my list?
How does this service help the people on my list?
What are the biggest wants, needs and fears of my list members?
What do I use or could recommend that would help them get past those issues?
Write your autoresponder emails as a series of helpful messages with the links to your personal affiliate links built in. If a person is interested in getting the same results you have with a certain product or service, they will click the link to check it out themselves. Then they are ‘selling themselves’ instead of you pitching and selling to them. Big difference!
There are some really cool benefits to this besides just the cash – and that is really cool!
Another is the fact that while someone learns more about you and what you offer through your messages you are also training them before they join your business. You are teaching them to use the products and services you will have them use if they do join you. And again, it’s all automated!
Choosing the right products to promote really depends on your niche and what they need. Always think of them first and product second.
Avoid too many products. That will only confuse your list members. Stick to things that you know and use so that you can give real results and good how to’s in your messages.
Step 5: Marketing
Once all of that is set up, you are ready to start driving traffic to your Nerve Center and into your sales funnel. And that is the easy part!
That way, every penny or minute you spend marketing your business won’t be lost if a person doesn’t join your primary business. Every new contact on your list becomes a potential lead not just for your primary business but for all the products, services and training in your sales funnel.
Allowing you to make money on not just the 5% that join your business but all 100% of them!
Here is how we have our sales funnel set up.
I know that you’re thinking “how the heck do I do all of this?”
There are 2 ways.
1 DIY – Do it yourself.
Start from scratch. Think about what you offer, what you want to offer, what products you use and like, find affiliate programs to join and then set up your blog or Nerve Center.
Learn copywriting (great skill to have – sales funnel or not!)
Write a series of at least 20- 25 messages to go out to your leads.
Learn to use your new autoresponder service and load your messages in.
Add your form to your Nerve Center
Start marketing.
OR
2 Use MLMMVP
This is by far the fastest, cheapest option. Having a professional team set it up makes a lot of sense.
Especially when it comes to this industry.
Consider the amount of time, money and energy it will take you to learn all of the option 1. Now think about the team you are working so hard to build. Will they do the same?
Duplication is the key to success in the MLM world and spending your time training someone to set up their own sales funnel is not time well spent!
We set up your entire sales funnel for you!
BUT this is NOT one of those duplicated – cookie cutter – same as everyone else – automated systems!
We build the entire thing from scratch for you!
We have the emails done. Professionally written and waiting for you to add your personal affiliate link to.
We have the affiliate products picked out. The ones that sell the best to the most people and have change the lives of thousands in this industry. The same tools and training the 6 and 7 figure earners use.
We have a Premium WordPress Theme ready to add to your domain.
We know all the right tools, plugins and widgets to make your site work and work well.
We set up the permalink structure so the search engines find you easier.
And then we give you all the training to use your Nerve Center AND all the training you’ll need to find a marketing strategy that will work for you.
We even give you a commission of up to 35% for recommending them! That means if you sell just 3 upgraded memberships – your sales funnel has been created for you for free!
All of this goes on your domain, your hosting package and uses your autoresponder service putting you in control of every part of your business.
Only you can take the site down, only you can change the information, only you can market to your list.
To get a MLMMVP Nerve Center, fill in the form below, get a free membership and then take the one time offer once you create your account.
