Turnkey Systems For Internet MLM/Affiliate Companies
No matter how great an MLM companies products are, or how great it compensation plan is or how great the founder of the company is; there is still one main underlying question in every prospects mind. That is, “can I do it”? In a bid to make the answer to this question “yes”, many companies are putting in place a high degree of automation. This includes things like data capture of visitor details, autoresponder to follow up and send messages automatically, ways to generate traffic to your website. In other words; a system that the prospect can “plug into”.A popular buzzword in adverts for Internet MLM/Affiliate businesses that provide such a highly automated system is to call it a “turnkey” opportunity. The suggestion is that you join up, put in your details (turn the metaphoric key) and off you go making lots of money.
It is the advantage of the Internet that many systems can be highly automated. This is an attraction of the Internet over conventional MLM businesses, which rely much more on the human factor. People skills like communication, presenting, dress sense, closing the sale, time from last shower; are always much more inconsistent and less duplicatable.
MLM companies often liken themselves to a vehicle, taking you down the road to success. My car (the real one) is a turnkey system. I turn on the ignition and I can drive anywhere I want to go. However, I need to know how to drive, how to use the steering wheel, the pedals and (probably most importantly) the brakes.
So it is with internet turnkey systems, you still need to know how to drive them. You need detailed instructions how to turn the key and make your on-line vehicle drive. Before going too deeply into any on-line business, check out the back office and make sure that you have instructions and guidance. However good or automated an online system is, you still need to attract traffic to it. Make sure that the on-line guide clearly tells you how to do this.
Many companies will let you have a free trial period where you can check them out first. Check these out first before you commit yourself. See what level of instruction and support is available. Maybe ask a question of the support desk to test out the response.
If it all checks out, then you can feel safe to turn the key of your new business and drive it down the Internet highways to wherever you want it to go.
I wish you all every success with your chosen vehicle (at least you won’t have to worry about speed cameras).

Hi Charlie,
Came across your blog from article you submitted to my site www.computerincome.net. What MLM do you work? I am part of M2CGlobal and Enliven and love them both but any advice on building teams would be great, although not the dreaded magnetic marketing system please....! Do traffic oasis leads work?

Hi Rachel
Thanks for your comment. I use serval affiliates under the Umbrella of Pay-It-Forward-4-Profits. This includes, Global Domains International (GDI), Traffic Oasis, Traffic Swarm and my favourite, Success University.
The Traffic Oasis I like because I have loaded the autoresponder to give out information on GDI, which is a cheap low key entry into MLM.
If somebody joins GDI, I will tell them once they have settled in that they joined via Traffic Oasis and gently prompt them in that direction, so the 2 cross fertilise each other (multiple streams of income).
As for Magnetic Sponsoring, I thought it was good for explaining the principles of attracting prospects, but not so good for working on the Internet.
I take it you don't like the system?
Charlie
