Dawn’s Online MLM Toolbox
Marketing your MLM online takes work, but if you’re using the right tools you’ll save yourself a ton of time and energy. And time and energy is exactly what you’re going to need for calling all of your new prospects and coaching your new team members!
I have completely revamped my Online MLM Toolbox once again, to reflect what is working for me on my blog and in my business.
I only provide links to programs I use and have success with, so you can be sure they are worth the money (I am not interested in wasting money and I assume you aren’t either).
*** UPDATED October 2011***
Webhosting – I use Bluehost and recommend that you do to. I have used other hosting services, which I used to recommend but in my experience they have the best customer service and very little downtime. You can also host unlimited domains on one hosting account – amazing value for your money.
Autoresponder – I’ve tried all of the major autoresponder services and aWeber Communications is hands down the best, to the point that I’m not even suggesting any others. They have a $1 month-long trial so start building your list today, almost for free.
Autoresponder Add-On – I’ve recently added Pop-Up Domination to my arsenal and have seen a significant increase in subscribers to all of my lists. More subscribers means more money when you’re an internet marketer, so this is a very good tool if you’re seriously interested in reaching more people.
Search Engine Optimization – Market Samurai is an impressive piece of software that will help you get your websites ranked quickly on Google and other major search engines. I’ve used many paid and free applications, and none is near as good as Market Samurai… outside of webhosting and an autoresponder this has been my best investment into my business this year.
Article marketing is hands-down the fastest and most powerful way to create high-quality backlinks to your site. The problem is, it can be very time consuming to write unique content and then submit it to article directories, even if you’re a great writer. Article Marketing Robot can create hundreds of articles using your original, and then submit to those articles to more than 2000 article directories in under 10 minutes. This is a must-have tool if you’re serious about marketing on the internet – try it for free today!
Not really a writer? Instant Article Factorymakes writing an article quick and simple – at five minutes per article you can crank out original quality content fast. A great alternative to outsourcing when you’re just getting started.
MLM Lead System Pro (MLSP) – Hands down the best funded proposal marketing funnel on the market. You can create a fully branded lead capture campaign in under 20 minutes. There is no better (or more cost effective) way to capture leads.
WordPress Theme - Thesis is the best premium WordPress theme on the market right now, and it’s what I use to build all of my sites. Its highly customizable and easy to use, even for a beginner. I recommend purchasing the developer license – that way you can install the theme on as many sites as you wish and remove the Thesis link from the footer to add a more personal touch to your site.
Twitter Tools – this is the only place I’m torn. SocialOomph is WAY better, but it has a monthly subscription fee. But Tweet Adder is cheaper and is a one-time fee. SocialOomph has a free week-long trial so check it out first to determine what features you need most. You might find Tweet Adder is enough, but they don’t have a free trial. My preference though, if you can afford it is definitely for SocialOomph.
Traffic Travis – I use this tool to analyze all of my posts to ensure I’ve done everything to properly to get found by the search engines. An excellent tool for anyone new to Search Engine Optimization and the free version is more than enough for most people. It does have a number of other functions but I prefer to use Market Samurai (see above) for keyword research etc.
Live Chat – There are few things more powerful than having a live chat integrated into your website. Imagine knowing the moment a customer views your website and being able to interact directly with them. Do you think that could help your online business?! Zopim is an amazing software that intergrates seamlessly with any website… pick up your 14-day free trial and check it out for yourself!
The Best Spinner - Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know that Google has just changed their algorithym and slapped sites that were using duplicate content. So if you plan to use article marketing as one of your SEO strategies, you need to make sure you do not post duplicate content. Rather than spending thousands of hours writing and rewriting articles, get the Best Spinner and create hundreds of unique articles from just one! You need to see this product in action so click on the link to watch the video – nothing short of amazing!
SEO Pressor for WordPress – Super-effective WordPress Plugin that tells you exactly what you need to do to optimize each post you write, as you write it! Get over 80% with their on-page search engine optimization scoring system and you’ll rocket to the top of the search engines in no time… a must have if you’re rocking a WordPress site.
Todd Falcone’s Little Black Book of Scripts – Hands down the best guide for contacting leads as well as your warm market. Todd Falcone is known as one of the best in the network marketing industry and in this book + audio he provides scripts for every scenario, as well as letter and email templates you can use to skyrocket your MLM business.
