If you want to sign up a lot of people to your MLM, you need a lot traffic. If you want to get this traffic for free, you have to offer people something in return. Offering something of value, whether it be a review, a bonus or a how-to guide is always more effective than a direct sales pitch. Not only does it build credibility, but people are more likely to visit your site in the first place if they receive something.

Think who your audience is. What else are they interested in. What services or products they use. Build a page or a website targeted around that service. While you have their focus, introduce them to the MLM you are offering.

I have a very popular Squidoo page Send Files From Your Computer To Any Cell Phone. I figure people that use cell phones are a pretty good match for Zenofon telephone service. In this page I offer many ways, both free and paid to transfer files between your computer and your cell phone. It helps my readers create their own ringtones, wallpapers and screensavers. On that page I added a link to Zenofon with a short promotional offer. That is the most clicked on link on the page.

Zenofon is offering a great new rate to Kenya as a promotion. It's a short term rate to generate customers to Kenya. At 5 cents/minute its less than 50% of what other discount telephone companies are charging. There are no extra fees such as connection fees, monthly fees or expiration fees. What you pay for is what you get.

In order to motivate you to give this excellent feature a chance, Zenofon is giving all past and future customers who try Zenofon’s auto-recharge feature a free $10 credit. There is no purchase necessary to redeem this coupon, but you do have to create a credit card profile for your Zenofon account, so you do need a credit card to enroll.

The following steps are necessary to redeem this coupon:

Step 1) Create a credit card profile by storing your credit card with Zenofon.
step 2) Configure your auto-recharge settings. The how and when you want to be charged by Zenofon if you use up your free credit.
step 3) Activate the coupon.

As soon as you activate the coupon, your account will be credited $3 worth of free calling credit, and $1 week additional credit for the next seven weeks, as long as you leave the auto-recharge feature activated on your account. As long as you don’t go below your credit threshhold, you can try this $10 credit absolutely free.

Zenofon is starting a new promotion, and you win! Join Zenofon today using invitation code: http://www.zenofon.com/?bipbip and get up to 30 free minutes to make long distance calls with Zenofon without further obligation or having to share your credit card information.

Zenofon's 1st competition ended a few weeks ago, and they posted a video where they interviewed the winner, Ari, who brought in the most revenue in 30 days. I came in 7th in the same competition.
Watch the video and let's discuss his winning techniques:

420 Referrals, almost $200 in commissions. That calls for a special celebration, right? *wink* So I went to The Bukketshop to celebrate with some 420 goodies.

If you’re in a network marketing company or MLM and adding less than 50 people per month into your business, then you need to be subscribed to this blog.

Why is the failure rate in network marketing a staggering 96%? Is it because everyone is just flat out lazy or not willing to do anything to grow their business? With such an incredulous failure rate, it’s highly improbable that so many people are just lazy bums.

The reason for these depressing statistics is because people don’t know the right marketing techniques to grow a business. I'm not talking about some extra pocket change. I'm talking about a reliable source of income, that can even grow to a million dollars or year or more. I promise you that it's possible. You just need to know what to do, when to do it and how to do it! In the next posts I will elaborate on some mistakes you might be making that are draining your energy, your bank account and your time, and give you some solutions for growing your downline so you can be a huge success story!

Zenofon offers super cheap mobiles calls to the Philippines - starting at only 9 cents a minute. You also get $1 free to try out the service. That's a full 11 minutes to try the service with excellent sound quality. You can use Zenofon for making calls to anywhere in world, for low low rates. Especially in times like these, with Typhoon Ondoy leaving 100 dead & thousands homeless in the Philippines, you want to call your loved ones back at home give each other support.

If you can, make a donation to the Red Cross to help the survivors in Philippines.

Zenofon has great rates to call Russia. Do you know that using Zenofon you can call the Russian Federation and Kazakhstan for as low as 4 cents a minutes? You also get $1 free to try out the service. That's a full 25 minutes to try the service with excellent sound quality. But don't stop at Russia. You can use Zenofon for making calls to anywhere in world, for low low rates. Works well on mobile phones and landlines.

Have you all participated in Zenofon's first contest? The top 50 people that generated commissions all won prizes. Yours truly came in 7th and won a grand total of... $3.9. Ok, so maybe that isn't so impressive, but most contests only the top 3 guys win anything. I was very excited as this is the first time I placed in the top 10 in any affiliate competition, and I'm going to use the techniques I learned here to promoted other MLM programs. I hope you have been following me and have implemented at least some of my tactics. For the full results go to the Zenofon News Page.

A big congrats to the top 2 winners - who both happen to be my good friends from NY: Ari and Ofira.
Ofira came in 2nd generating lots of revenues just by referring Ari - which is rule #1 in MLM marketing: Recruit super affiliates.
Ari came in 1st by posting on popular forums - like FatWallet, and recruiting a couple of Indian and Chinese super affiliates who in turn referred a lot of people who actually use the service to place calls to their family back home. Which is rule #2 in MLM marketing: Recruit actual users.


The next MLM I am going to promote is Bob Proctor's "Six Minutes To Success". I will talk about it more in my upcoming posts, but it kept me motivated and aiming high during this competition. It is the closest you can get to a personal coach, for the low price of $39 a month, and the first 7 days are free.

I wholeheartedly recommend you try it out.
This is the link: Six Minutes To Success

If you have started promoting any MLM program, you know that if you work on building your downline, you can make more money sleeping than you can ever make while awake. I love waking up in the morning and smelling profits!

The Science of Getting Rich is a program with universal appeal - ever since the movie "The Secret" took the world by storm. It is a good product to promote since you don't have to purchase it in order to be an affiliate. Not only will you be making money off the sales of this program, but if you yourself register, you will be coached by Bob Proctor himself on how to reach your earning potential and secure your financial future.

Check this Youtube video out -- on Getting FREE affiliate INCOME http://cli.gs/2Xb7pv

90% of beginner multi level marketers fail to make their first dollar online for one simple reason: lack of action. I follow and post on many internet marketing forums and I see this all the time; people complaining how they spend thousands of dollars on courses, e-books, personal Internet Marketing coaches and even seminars, yet they can’t generate any MLM leads. Then they go on to explain how they had their cousin sign up as their first affiliate and... that's it.

Well, my friends, it takes more than one lead to make you rich. MLM is just like any other business, it’s not going to make you money if you don’t put any effort into it.

First of all, you need to get the word out. Advertising your product is the most important part of this business. If you post something - an article, a forum response, a Squidoo lens or a Yahoo answer, you have an extra chance to be seen. Take advantage of the fact that you can get most of this advertising for FREE. Using blogs, article marketing, social media such as Youtube, Facebook and Twitter helps a lot! Yes, it takes time and effort but it pays off! One single 300-word article in an article directory could bring thousands of people to a site and make hundreds of them sign up and purchase whatever you are selling - but you need to do the proper research and you need to write that article! It is THAT SIMPLE.

So next time you are about to complain about not making money, ask yourself if you have done enough action to deserve that money. If your fingers are not sore from all the typing (or your wallet empty from outsourcing all the typing) then you probably haven’t done enough!

Now go out there, take action and bring in your first lead. Just make sure to sign up under me so I get half of your commissions. Broo ha ha!

If you are an internet marketer and you use Twitter, this is one tool you absolutely need. It is also really fun to use ;) It is called Cli.gs, and it does so many things!

Most of you Tweeters probably use some sort of URL alias system to shorten your URLs, but can you use that service to track your links? No. Once you created your alias you can only use it. You can't change it, annotate it, track clicks and users, nothing.

With Cligs, you can do all the above and more. You create "cligs" which is a short URL redirect of your super long link, it lets you keep track of them, let's you name them for easy reference and the most fun part - you can see how many people clicked them and where your visitors came from.

This is so valuable in Internet Marketing, as any affiliate can tell you - tracking is the most important part of becoming a successful marketer. Now I know which of my links are popular, and which are duds, so I can keep posting only relevant tweets to my followers. There are many more advanced features and they have an API so you programmers can create applications with integrated analytics.

I am addicted :)

If you follow this blog from the beginning, you can see my progress as I took my Zenofon downline from 0 to 330 members in 2 months. To be honest, I have been selling online for a few years now, but I have never recruited so many people to an affiliate program before. Had you told me a few months ago that I would achieve these results, and be in the top 10 overall recruiters for a product, I would have barely believed you. There are super affiliates out there, and gurus. I am happy to make a few sales here and there. How did I suddenly, almost overnight, achieve this surprising success?

It started with a decision. To change my life. To achieve financial freedom. To get to the next level. Like in a video game, I knew all the tricks of my level, I was playing it for too many years, I was itching to unlock the secret to the next level, the level the experts play.

When I was already thinking these thoughts, something caught my eye on Facebook. It was a group called "Six Minutes To Success" and it was promoting a program by Bob Proctor that promised to bring me to where I wanted - the next level. He was offering to teach these secrets to anyone who was willing to learn, and he was so sure he could do it, he was offering a free 7 day trial. And he promises to continue coaching you until you become a millionaire.

I am sure I have already started the journey. And you can too. It takes work and determination to create your wealth, but if you stick with the program, you will start seeing results immediately.

Are you ready to get started? Six Minutes Can Change Your Life! Find Out How.

Only 10 days ago I was celebrating my 200th friend in my Zenofon downline, and today I have already 288 friends. I never thought the jump from 200 to 300 would happen so fast.

If you haven't heard yet, Zenofon is giving away $499.9999999 to the people who generate the most income in the next 30 days. You can check the top positions at the Zenofon news page and you can be sure I am there - currently placed #9 but steadily rising. Follow my tips in this blog and you can outpace me ;) you have until September 20th to try. So ready, set, go!

I am very happy to announce my 200th Zenophyte registered today under my downline! I signed up Dinesh who signed up Rick. Congratulations Dinesh and Rick and all the members in my downline. I hope you enjoy using Zenofon and saving money on long distance calls. There are still about 6 billion people in the world who haven't registered yet to Zenofon. I'm sure you can each sign up at least 200 people. Go get them!

Is Zenofon A Scam?

For those of you who have been following me for the past few weeks as I took my Zenofon downline from 0 to over 160, the above title probably comes as a big shock. So let me calm your fears:

7000 Zenophytes, 140 spawned by me. That's 2% of all Zenophytes referred by me. Pretty neat, huh? Most of my spawns are 1st and 2nd generation, but I have several 3rd and 4th generation as well. Waiting for the drill down deeper as well as wider. My best affiliate is Dinesh with 11 signups. Way to go, Dinesh!

Zenofon is brand spanking new, but already has 8780 appearances on Google. My main Zenofon page at http://www.squidoo.com/zenofon is ranked #2. I'm very proud!

If you joined Zenofon, or any MLM program, and you are not seeing the results you envisioned, ask yourself how much effort are you really putting into promoting your product. Most people after 1 or 2 steps just sit back passively and pray for the results to roll in on their own. Well guess what, that is usually not going to happen. If you are not lifting a finger, or if you are doing very little or close to nothing to promote your product - it will never take off. Not only that, but every time you will read about a success story related to the product you will get resentful and upset, thinking why is that person successful and you are not.

If you want to promote Zenofon, or any MLM for that matter, there are only 2 types of people you should be marketing to:

• Other network marketers
• People who will actually use the service

Wow! My efforts are definitely showing some good results. Yesterday was my best day ever, with 16 new people signing up directly under me. Way to go, Zenophytes! If you read this blog, do not forget to message me, I can give you an extra $5 in Zenofon credit to make phone calls.

If you sign up for Zenofon under my referral code, and write a post or an article about Zenofon (with YOUR referral code), send me a link to the article and I will link to it from here, thus giving you a nice dose of fresh free link juice!

Today's article was send in from GetDialing.com, a blog about saving money on phone calls, who wrote a review of Zenofon. Thanks Georgia, and good luck with your downline!

I now have a total of 95 Zenophytes in my downline!

The best thing that can happen to you when promoting an MLM product, is signing a super affiliate beneath you. You'll have a lot of dead ends - people that sign up but never use or promote the product, but every once in a while you'll sign a person that not only "gets" the product, but promotes it to a lot of people. When you hit that sweet spot, you'll get extra motivation to continue your efforts. Seeing other people try a product, and benefit from it - and being rewarded from contributing to those people's lives, is the biggest motivation I can get.

The $5 extra credit for those who sign up beneath me and mail me - you MUST mail me in order to get your credit - is still available, so hurry up and grab your 5 bucks!

We are growing by leaps and bounds!

Think of the different type of people who can benefit from Zenofon - either from using the service or from promoting it, and address them directly.

Here is a small sample of people who will benefit most from using Zenofon:
People who spend a lot of money on long distance phone calls
Tourists
Immigrants
People with family / friends (ex-pats) abroad
Foreign workers
People with international businesses
Freelancers
Work from home moms / dads
Affiliate marketers
People who want a little extra passive income

I hope you get some ideas from this list. You are welcome to add to it!

Welcome this week's new Zenophytes:

Using your mobile phone for all your phone calls is the most natural option for most people. Our mobiles are such an integral part of our lives, we carry them everywhere with us. Calls can be placed on the go, whether we are in the comfort of our living room, or fishing in the middle of a lake. But we pay the price for this comfort in high prices we pay to the phone company.

Most people don't realize they don't have to use the service of their mobile provider for all their calls. You should use them only for the services for which their prices are the most competitive. For long distance calls, using your regular mobile carrier is probably NOT the best option. Some of you are probably already using Prepaid Phone Cards. Some Mobile phone contracts do not allow the use of alternate carriers like phonecards or dial around services, because it allows you to make cheap calls instead of wasting money on expensive roaming charges that benefit the mobile phone company.

Using callback is another option to reduce your mobile phone bill drastically. You call the callback number ans immediately hang up. The call triggers an alert at the phone company, which immediately calls you back on a line from within their service. When you pick up, you now have an open line to call whomever you want - on the callback company's private phone service. Using Zenofon's callback service, you can lower your mobile phone bill by as much as 97%.

When recruiting friends to Zenofon, tell them about the benefit of the service. Show them how they can drastically reduce their mobile phone bills. That's the best reasons to sign up with any service.

How important are social networks to your happiness? Perhaps even more important than you realized. A recent 20-year study of more than 4,000 people showed that happiness is influenced not just by your immediate friends and family. The happiness of a friend of a friend of a friend -- someone you’ve never even met -- can also influence your happiness. It turns out that happiness can spread through social networks, like a virus.

So today, spread a little happiness. Call a friend or relative you haven't spoken to in a while. Use Zenofon to call them cheaply, so you have money left over to buy yourself a cupcake. Cupcakes promote happiness too, I'm sure you know that already ;)

Get your friend to join Zenofon too. It will make them richer AND happier.

The first lucky Zenofon customers received free credit in varying amounts, from $15 to $1. After hitting the 5,000 customer milestone, Zenofon stopped giving away free credit, but I still managed to snag a few $5 vouchers which I will be giving away this week to new customers that sign up under my link and email me back with their username. Remember - this is not automatic - you HAVE to message me in order to claim your credit!

Congratulations to yesterday's new Zenophytes!

So you're using Zenofon and you're loving it, but not you want to start earning money off it! So how do you get people to sign up under you? I will give you some ideas:

First, you can do the obvious - start telling all your friends. There is nothing like word of mouth to get people excited about a service. It's actually the best way, hands down. Much better than an anonymous recommendation or an advertisement. Which is why Zenofon is viral only - because they believe that personal recommendation is the most trustworthy form of marketing.

An other thing I recommend doing is creating a Squidoo lens. For those of you who are not familiar with Squidoo, it's a must use tool to get a lot of web traffic. And best of all - it's free and Google LOVES it. So you are guaranteed to get the word out fast. You can check out my own Squidoo lens here: Zenofon - Slash Your Mobile Phone Bill. The lens has a lot of information how to use Zenofon, and a lot of reasons why it is a great service and why I recommend it.

If you want more information on what Squidoo is and what it can do for you, read this Introduction to Squidoo.

I have been asked by people living outside of the US why they should promote Zenofon if the service is not available in their country. There are a number of good reasons to promote Zenofon and I will explain:

1) The service is still new and will be rolled out in more and more countries depending on licensing in each country.
2) Even if you live outside of the US, you or your friends might travel to the US and would like to call back home. You might have family that live permanently in the United States and they call people in their homeland. You might have business associates calling you - why not give them a cheaper way to call?
3) You still earn commissions referring Zenophytes, even if you don't spend a cent on Zenofon calls.

http://www.squidoo.com/zenofon

Many of the signups under me originated from this page. Write your own Zenofon page, host it on wordpress, squidoo or a hubpage, and watch traffic pour in. Use your own angle. It can be a review, a comparison among voip services or just a list of features.

Do you want to live the lifestyle of your dreams? Financial freedom, being able to spend a lot of time with your family, the ability to take up hobbies you've been dreaming about for years? Even the really expensive ones, like flying? Why not join a Ponzi scheme? It's more fun that a barrel of monkeys, and it's very profitable. Just ask Bernie Madoff who changed his lifestyle dramatically - from swimming life guard to the Nasdaq chairman. Now that's some change!

Now you can be your own Madoff - with an ethical AND lucrative pyramid that will actually benefit you, and all the investors you bring in the game. Want more details? Get your free Zenofon account now and start making loads of cash now!
