Royal Cruise Matrix – The Benefits Of Connections
New MLM programs come along every day. I would probably not be wrong in saying they are a dime a dozen. And being in this business often gets my email
box literally FLOODED with offers of instant riches.
I have been a business person long enough to know that most of these programs,
lotions, and potions are pure junk. An MLM opportunity or product has to meet certain specifications for me to even consider giving it a second look. Since much
of the success of my business is built upon my reputation as an honest and long-term entrepreneur, Any business I consider joining has to be something I believe in, #1 and trust the sources, #2. Income and payplan, of course, play a very large
part, but there are different ways to earn a paycheck. Big ticket items that provide a large commission are just as viable to me as being an affiliate for a one time product launch or educational marketing system.
As a big supporter of Multiple income streams, I am always open to new ideas, depending on where they come from. However, Like I said, criteria must be met.
While no company is perfect, I have found that by keeping a keen eye on the newest marketing trends, along with balancing the importance of longevity, I can quickly discard 95% of offers I get in my inbox every day. Others I will look at more closely, and then make an informed decision.
There are also programs and systems that I will look at and sign up 5 minutes later because I immediately see the potential for either a very quick couple of bucks, or an opportunity to add a long-term business to my portfolio.
The other day I contacted a collegue on a completely un-related matter, and she got back to me with some pleasant conversation, and then asked me to look at a new company she had just joined. I can’t lie, I half winced at first, because I felt like I was being pitched. But that only lasted a minute, until I stopped and thought about the person who was sending this to me. She wasn’t at all “pitching” me her opportunity. In fact, I owe her a huge “thank you” (and I will) for bringing it to my attention. (Another sign that this was genuine “sharing” was that she specifically asked me if I had another connection to join with that person instead. Turns out I did, and I joined with another partner). But had she not let me in on this when she did, I would have found out about it a day later when my other contact sent out a message to his list. This allowed me to be the first in my sponsor’s downline, which is a desireable position.
Timing plays a big part in online marketing, and I am not exaggerating when I tell you that I am incredibly excited to have been asked to be a part of something so early on. In fact, I have been able to speak to the man who is the #1 affliliate, and get inside information straight from the top. No guessing or heresay. All facts, all up to the minute.
So why am I telling you this? There are a couple of schools of thought when it comes to promoting business online. Many people (rightly) feel that you should never lead with your business. You should promote “you” and then have others ask about your business after they get to know you.
However, don’t confuse that with “Don’t ever market your business”.
I am in business to make money, but I also love what I do because I can help other people. Part of helping them is to let them know when something I feel is worthwhile comes along. As was the case with my friend who showed me this, we had built up a trust so that she was not afraid to share with me, and was clearly giving me an advantage of being one of the founding members. She could have waited until I read one of her blog posts, or got a mass email from her to her list, but because we have a friendship, she offered to help me, and I was grateful.
So if you learn of a business, book, or system that you think is useful, and (gasp!) profitable, by all means, get the word out! don’t keep it to yourself. I don’t mean that you should put your affiliate link into all your correspondence with friends and aquaintances, but if you know someone who could benefit from your business opportunity, it is ok to offer it to be helpful. If they decline, no biggie, you are still friends. They may know someone else who is looking and would be perfect. They don’t call it “Network Marketing” for nothing. It is ok to be proud of your business and use it as a way to help others. This is a perfect combination.
With all that said, My New business that I added to my portfolio is called Royal Cruise Matrix. I will share the link here for you to look at, and if it sparks an interest, you can contact me (info on website) to get your questions answered. If not, you may know someone who would find this information helpful to them.
Royal Cruise Matrix
I will tell you just a couple of things not found on the website. This is brand new, and will be going international after the first of the year. Projected membership is in the millions. Right now, only about 5700 members. Hardcopy real paper paychecks are mailed to you within one business day of request. No bank wire transfers or fees. Also, this program is hot right now, and I have teamed with movers and shakers, so we will be cycling quickly right at the start. I felt confident enough with the company, leadership and payplan to show it to my college age son, who has been wanting to get started in business for himself. The cost to join is so low, he is going to share it with his campus buddies. And three days in, he already has several people in his downline. This is the FIRST time he has tried network marketing. He has NO experience. Imagine what someone with connections could do???
