Network Marketing Tools

Tools in network marketing can be a variety of things from useful to not worth the time to bother with them. One of the things that is essential in network marketing is after you have exhausted your warm market, you move to the cold market.

This requires the generation of network marketing leads or prospects as you’ll learn to call them. Here we’ll give you some recommendations on the ones we personally use.

Once you have the leads then you need to have a way to keep them organized. We have several recommendations here also.

Essential tools I recommend.

Email system

Just about every computer has a program called Outlook Express, or you may have the full version of Outlook.

There are many reasons we want to have this information on our desktop rather then on the web.

If your still using the old copy and paste method through a web based email system STOP NOW. You really need to have your emails on your desktop or laptop.

 

One of the important reasons to have your marketing system setup this way is so that you can use a professional contact management program. The days of 2 who just get 2 are over, are you pretending to build a business or really working to build your business.

Contact Management Program.

The program that we recommend is the program called ACT. There are many different versions of ACT since the come out with a new version each year. ACT 2000, 2004, 2005, 2006 or the newest at this time 2007.

 

ACT! by Sage 2007 organizes all your customer / prospects information in one place.

Autoresponder System

   The third tool you must have for your marketing is a auto responder system. Not the typical free ones that are out there all over the place. If your going to be a professional, use professional tools. In today's climate you really do have to be careful with your email marketing. Do it wrong and it can land you in a lot of trouble. Most professional auto responder companies will not let you up load a list of leads, that is not their purpose.

   Ideally you will have your prospects requesting information from you via collateral marketing. If you don't know what I'm talking about, then you need the CD that's on this page. Speak with one of our marketing consultants they will be able to help you.
