If you want Free Leads for your MLM business online because you are building your business on a budget there is one thing that you will need alot of!

  And that is TIME!

Free Leads come at the price of your precious time; this is a fact.  To market online you need one of two things, time or money.  If you have money you can learn pay-per-click and pay for advertising, but for the majority of people this is not a viable option when they first market online.  Your time is valuable, but once you have set up and mastered the skills needed to create free leads, the process will be much quicker.

Article Marketing is probably one of the biggest ways of producing free leads.  At the beginning it may seem like a long-winded way of going about generating leads, but writing does get easier the more often you do it. When you publish your articles in directories on the web, you get the opportunity to put in your links to your blog or other page, so someone who reads your article and finds value in it will click on the link and arrive at your blog, where you can request their details in exchange for say a newsletter or a freebie.

Social media sites are another hot-bed for free leads.

Facebook, for instance, is the second most visited site on the internet at the moment!

So how many Network Marketers, or would be Network Marketers do you imagine log into Facebook regularly?  An enormous amount!  It is so easy to connect with people, put up your contact information and start to befriend them.  You can join groups and get involved with discussions about the MLM industry, but try to remember not to thrust your opportunity at everyone as soon as you connect with them.  Marketing on the internet is different from offline marketing.  It is more about Attraction Marketing, whereby you attract people into your business by showing value and giving respect.

MySpace and LinkedIn  are two other social media sites where it is easy to make contact with people and find free leads.  MySpace is often connected with young people, or with dating, but is now very well known for making good connections in the MLM industry.  LinkedIn is much more professionally based, and therefore more difficult to find leads, because you cannot just add friends the way you do on other social media sites.  Having said that, a number of people are getting good numbers of leads from LinkedIn, and the quality of these leads is much, much higher than other social sites as many high-ranking professionals use it.

Twitter is rising rapidly through the ranks of important websites, although totally different from other sites.  It is very easy to build up a following of thousands of people on Twitter and also to have several accounts.  Many Network Marketers are building up a loyal following and can broadcast as many 140 character comments or ‘tweets’ as they like.  The secret is to make sure you are adding targeted people to your list, either by searching for keywords, or by following the followers of famous networkers or authors in the industry.

Video Marketing is another way to generate free leads for your business.  YouTube ranks as the third most visited site on the internet.  It is free to open an account, so you can upload as many videos as you can make!  You then subscribe to other peoples videos, or add them as friends and you will find large numbers of people will then subscribe to your channel and watch your videos.  It is easy enough nowadays to record yourself; most modern digital cameras will record a short video easily enough.What you need to do is make your video of value and ensure you put a link to your blog in the description box when you upload it.

These are just some of the ways to create free leads.  As I said at the beginning of this article, what you need most with these methods is time.  And you need to stick to it!  Rome wasn’t built in a day, and leads are not going to come chasing you in a week or two.  When I said time, I meant time to do these methods of lead generation and time to see the results.  Just keep on keeping on and the results will come!!
