-Shelley Kimberly Professional Network Marketer, Author, Relationship Builder ShelleyKimberly.com Twitter: shelleytalk “Mark,
I just finished reading your eBook :)I have to say, at the beginning you set a very strong posture. It was short, fast, and to the point. It gave me the impression that you are a very intense person, and you're not looking for tire kickers or whiners. I can appreciate the fact that you cut all the bull, and went right into the details.
I've never spoken to you over the phone, but I get a sense of your personality, you come across as someone who has been through the MLM jungle, and came out on the other side victorious. You definitely know what you're talking about, and it shows that you implement everything that you mention in the eBook.
It's insane how much information you jammed into a 55 page eBook! Anyone who gets half way through this eBook will be able to set realistic expectations on what they will be able to achieve online based on their level of skills.
I really liked how you closed the eBook. Your call to action was really good. I'm not a newbie to this industry or the online marketing game, but I have never had a real coach or mentor. You clearly paint a portrait of the importance of having one from the start.
Keep the good stuff coming buddy”“A Beginner's Guide to Network Marketing Online has got it spot on. He has, with LASER PRECISION, dissected the common problems beginning network marketers encounter and has provided the TRIED and PROVEN solutions to their problems. This takes YEARS off of your learning curve. Read it, Take Action!”

Who is Mark Gubuan?
First of all I want to congratulate you for taking the time to educate yourself. This is the first step in your journey of 1,000 miles. I’m just a regular person. I’m married. I have a new son. And I have a 9 to 5 job.
You’re probably asking yourself, “ Why should I listen to what you have to say? What do you know that I don’t already?”
Well, you should listen to me because over the last two years I’ve been working NON-STOP working not one, but TWO jobs. The first job is accounting working 40 hours per week. The other was building my online network marketing business for at least 40 hours per week. I’ve worked pretty damn hard to get to this point and if you don’t take heed of my advice than you may be just as well be a fool.
I’ve been educating myself, connecting with millionaires and multiple 6 figure earners, marketing and training others to learn how to make a fortune with the least amount of pain possible.Quite frankly, I’ve been working my ass off because I don’t take my life for granted. I know that I will achieve whatever level of success I desire. And I’ll tell you right now I dream big.

Evaluating A Network Marketing Company
Here are the major pieces of the network marketing company that you’ll want to evaluate:
1. Leadership – Do these guys have any scandals surrounding them? Do they have a success track record? What relevant experience do they have that will help them run the company?
Lots of leaders have a lot of dirt surrounding them. And some can move past it, while others can’t. It’s important that you don’t believe everything you read on the internet and go to the most reliable sources as this is where the truth lies.
The success habits and history of a leader is important. VERY VERY important. This will show you what habits they have when building businesses.For example, if the leaders have built businesses in the past it is important to see how large the businesses grew. But also, of the businesses that failed, understanding WHY they failed gives you the right perspective.
Really take a look at the “leader of the leaders”. In other words, the CEO is an important factor in your decision. Are they company first or rep/distributor first?If they are company first, they may cut you down when you least expect it. However if they are distributor first, they could really make the situation the best it can ever be!
Make sure that the leaders have built network marketing companies before or have been in the industry for a while. OR if not, they need to have an EXCELLENT SALES RESUME. This will ensure that the marketing training you get is top notch.
2. Compensation Plan – What kind of behavior does their compensation plan promote? How many people do you personally have to enroll to make $1,000 per month in residuals?I cannot go into each individual compensation plan here, but what I will talk about is how the type of compensation plan drives behavior.
A compensation plan that pays you on as many different levels as humanly possible is the most ideal. But a compensation plan that pays you on INFINITE LEVELS is the holy grail of comp plans.
You know why? Because it promotes teamwork down to the depths of your downline. If someone 10 levels up makes money when YOU make money, they’ll want to do everything they can to help you. It’s a WIN-WIN.
Know your income goals and figure out how many people you have to recruit to get to your income goals. This will help you understand HOW HARD YOU HAVE TO WORK to make your dreams come true.
3. Sponsorship – Who’s your sponsor? Do they have any experience? If not, will your upline help you?This is like the dreaded question for a lot of network marketers starting out because they always ask the question, “but Mark, what if I’m brand new and I don’t have experience?” The answer is simple. Read on.
When you’re joining a newbie or someone that hasn’t recruited a bunch of people yet, you want to look at their overall support system.
Ultimately, you will be responsible for your own success, but having the right kind of resources around you gives you the absolute BEST chance for success.
So what you can say if people ask the dreaded question is to tell them about the items above. It’s a cycle you say that to your prospects and your prospects say that to others.
4. Marketing Training – What kind of marketing training does the company have? Does it facilitate making sales and signing reps up?
Most marketing training is actually laughable in network marketing companies because their training is focused on how to get their distributors to sell more for the benefit of the company.
It is not focused on how to get the distributors to sell more for the benefit of themselves.
REAL marketing training will teach you about target markets, demographics, advertising, branding and the difference between marketing the product and yourself.
Frankly, most network marketing companies don’t train you on that because it’s irrelevant to selling the product. However, you need to know this to sell yourself to recruit (which is where the money is).
But let’s not focus what they don’t have let’s focus on what they do have. Look for the start up guide, read through that and make sure it has clear defined action steps or a road map to the highest rank. Make sure that if the product is unique that the explanations on the product are clear and easy to understand.
Are you going to know how to start and what to do once you’ve started?There should be good video training, offline training and training from the leaders in the organization.
QUICK TIP: Want to become a leader in your MLM right away? Create marketing training specific for your MLM and give it to your downline.
5. Timing – Are you getting in during the ground floor (pre-launch)? Growth stage? Or mature stage?
The HYPE. Oh the hype. GET IN NOW GROUND FLOOR OPPORTUNITY. LOL. Check out the diagram below. This particular diagram shows the different stages.
Ground Floor (Pre-Launch) – This is normally the best time to join an MLM, however this can be VERY RISKY because the company is not established and could fail. With high-risk comes highreward.
The risk of joining however is mitigated with the right factors from above. But joining at the ground level allows you to experience the growth phase.Growth Stage – Notice how the graph shows a very steep curve. That is where teams will grow exponentially and with the least amount of effort. And all the money is made here.
You definitely can join at this stage and still make a ton of money, but it really depends on how hard you work. Obviously if you join at the end of the growth stage you will have to work even harder to experience the leverage you deserve in MLM.
Don’t confuse the growth stage with business growth. Business growth is where a business continues to make more and more money. This should never stop. The growth “stage” is where a business experiences exponential growth due to ramping up of marketing ands sales.
Maturity – This stage is where companies like Amway or Herbalife are. They’ve been around for decades and are fairly entrenched in their market position. Plus they’re not going anywhere and are very stable.
If you are just looking to retain and not to recruit, pick a company that’s in the maturity stage because it won’t matter if the company is in the growth stage or not.
In the end, I suggest going with your gut instinct or you can speak with other people in the industry. My recommendation is to speak directly to the competitors of the network marketing company.These people will give you unbiased, honest, critical opinions and if there’s any dirt on the company that you’re evaluating, they’ll most likely know all about it.

This is the part that totally sucks about going online with network marketing.
Why???
Because this is where you learn how hard not only the network marketing industry is, but you’ll realize that internet marketing isn’t a walk in the park either.
And guess what; before you make any money online, you’re gonna have to do offline marketing till your online business starts to see some results.
But don’t worry because there are short cuts to this and I’ll reveal every single one of them throughout this eBook.
Here’s what you do next.
What you need to do offline is burn through your warm market like it’s going out of style. Seriously. You need to make sure that everyone, including your mother, knows what your business is.
Plus, this will give you some practice telling people about the opportunity and the compensation plan.
Remember that guide that I told you to look for in your network marketing company? USE IT!! I’m not gonna go into anything more here because EVERY network marketing company trains you on offline methods to sell product.
Make no mistake selling product is how you make money. You MUST MASTER this SKILL to make money in network marketing. If you’re upline told you that you didn’t have to sell anything, that you just needed to tell people about it. They’re not giving you the truth.
You’re a salesman. PERIOD. Sorry if I just broke your heart, but I’m not here to make friends with you. I’m here to educate you and tell you the truth.

Check out this blog post where I go a little more in depth here.
http://markgubuan.com/online-network-marketing-business-model-explained
Basically, the online network marketing business model is centered around YOU. You are the product not your company. Why? Because if your company fails, you don’t have to go down with the ship.
How this works is that you will create ads, articles, videos, etc promoting yourself via FREE network marketing training. When people online find this training, they’ll see your name, your pictures and most importantly, they’ll see your websites.
Your websites, will be your lead capture pages. The lead capture page is a place where people will trade their name and email address for something of value, like an eBook, video training series, etc.Once you have their contact information, you’ll be able to successfully send emails to them on a periodic basis and you’ll have total control regarding your marketing message.
Your marketing message will be that YOU are a LEADER and can take them to the PROMISELAND.
The diagram below shows you graphically, how this works.
THE TWO MOST IMPORTANT CONCEPTS OF Online network marketing will only work if you understand the following two concepts. And by understanding these concepts you will actually make money throughout the entire process!
Adding Value to The Community – You must first give people value in the form of FREE network marketing training. Exactly like what you’re reading right now!
By adding value to the community you do a couple of things.
1. You position yourself as a leader
2. You build awareness for your brand and business
3. You train the people you want in your business
4. You attract only the people who you want
Follow Up and Building Relationships – This is the one and only piece that matters with online network marketing. In my opinion, this is where the online network marketing business model creates all of the residual income.
You do want residual income right? This is the income that you do the work once and get paid over and over again. (In case you were wondering)
Here’s what will happen when you follow up and build relationships the right way:
1. You will build trust
2. You will be more likable
3. You will convert more sales and sign ups
4. YOU WILL CONVERT MORE SALES and SIGN UPS
