A US Based Network Marketing company recently established in the UK is launching a new product into both the US & UK markets and is crossing the business model boundaries of MLM by offering its distributors access to leads from an infomercial that will air to a guaranteed audience of close to 70 million viewers in the US market.The move is seen as ground breaking in the changing face of network marketing and never before have UK distributors had the chance to benefit on such a scale in the US market.

The product, called inForce is a potent extract of the Coriolus Versicolor mushroom . Whilst not commonly known, Coriolus has been studied widely in Japan and its use dates back thousands of years in Chinese medicine.

Coriolus extracts, PSK & PSP have been shown in numerous clinical trials to have anti-cancer properties as well immune system boosting properties.

inLife LLC, the Californian based network marketing company launched in the UK in January with a range of electronic cigarettes and is expanding its product range to include inForce. The move to use a informercial in its business model strategy is the first time (known to author) that a MLM saleforce will benefit from such a wide exposure to a new product launch.

Not only that, but for UK  distributors of the company to be able to benefit from a 70 million views advertising campaign, (something they could never achieve in the UK alone) will be a first for Network Marketing in the UK.

The infomercial is not widely used in the Euro markets. It basically consists of a 15 or 30 minute television commercial aired to provide an in depth look at a product or service.

The founders of inLife are well versed in the informercial world being responsible for one of the longest  running informercial on US television.

A big part of Multi Level Marketing is building a team. The paul getty quote that he would 2rather earn 1% from the efforts of 100 people than 100% from the efforts of 1″ sums up the MLM ethos.

When it comes to building a team though, your primary objective is find 5 partners to work with.

Now this may not sound like a lot, but the fact is that the more thought you put into building your team of 5, the more successful your business will be. Of course you will pick up more than five frontline distributors along the way, but it is these core 5 who will make the foundation of your business.

Making a list of potential partners needs to be attacked like any corporation would search for business partners.

The general principle in MLM is to make a list of everyone you know and whittle the list down. I like to be a little more circumspect.

Take some time thinking about who you know, family, friends, business contacts. Try to analyse who you think would be best suited to tasks needed to be successful.

1. are they ‘people persons’

2. Do they have a wide network of friends and contacts.

3. Are they respected in their business field

4. are they ‘open’ to new ideas.

These are some of the questions to need to ask of yourself about your list of people.

Get the list down to about 10-15 who you think may be suitable. Then contact them and present the business opportunity.

With a mid-Spetember date pencilled in for the launch of Inlife UK, the multi level marketing opportunity for the leading brand of electronic cigarettes in the US, pre-registered distributors will need to start their planning to get up to full speed in time for launch.

The pre-registration form (see below) means that you will be the first to be notified of the full launch details and will be able to reserve your ticket to the founding meeting. Also pre-purchased stock will mean you will be first into the market place to start demostrating this exclusive line of products.

The founding meeting is likely to be held in the south of England but will be followed up with a series of meetings around the country.

The Inlife MLM opportunity is the only one available to take advantage of the rapidly expanding electronic cigarette industry, giving people to share in an industry that is forecast to produce $50 Billion in sales over the next five years.

Electronic or electric or e-cigs, as they are sometimes referred to, are a battery charged device that simulates the smoking experience including the inhalation and delivery of nicotine. The devices, however produce no ‘smoke’ and contain none of the carcinogens associated with tabacco, leaving them to be used in all those places where smoking regular tabacco is banned.

Seen as a major step forward for the pub industry, it is expected that the launch of Inlife Elite, Prestige and Regal brands will help licencees attract back some of its regular smoking clientelle. Pub attendances which have dropped by some 35% since smoking bans were enacted much of which is attributable to smokers choosing to stay at home and enjoy a beverage from tescos and a smoke rather that go down the pub for a pint.

As a new Independent Distributor, one of my first adventures was to enroll a local tobacco shop.  The thought was that a tobacco store was a perfect place to show and sell these amazing devices.  The potential sales of units and cartridges could be significant, I thought.  But, as it turned out, network marketing and trying to sell through a traditional retail process are not a good fit.

There are several inherent problems with enrolling a local retailer:

1.    Most retailers don’t want to be bothered with the process enrolling customers that come in.  And customers usually don’t want to spend the time to have all their information put into the computer (assuming the retailer even has one in the store) so they can go on line themselves and order products.  That’s why they’re going to a retailer in the first place.  Their objective is to stop in, pay, and take home.

2.    Most retailers don’t have the knowledge or the time to explain to a customer about the incredible financial opportunity of being an Independent Distributor.  More importantly, the retailer doesn’t want to “lose his customers” and have them go out and sell to other potential customers that might otherwise have come into their store.  Retailers are retailers, and they really don’t understand the power of network marketing.

3.    Having a local retailer that sells the inLife products, even at a mark up over suggested retail, makes it difficult for Independent Distributors working that area.  A prospect can be lost because they say, “Why go through all this, when I can just go down to the store and buy what I need?”

4.    Retailers are used to dealing with company sales representatives that offer the retailer discounts and “free stuff” to put their products on the shelf.  As an independent distributor, we’re not able to provide product discounts, advertising dollars or incentives to retailers.

5.    Retailers look to the company sales representative to take back defective products or trade out items that are not moving.  Even though the retailer ordered the products just as we do, they still have that mindset that the “sales representative” (us) should take care of their problems.  After all, that’s what all the other company sales reps do.

Having said all that, there can be opportunities enrolling retailers as new IDs, but only if they manage this part of their business through the network marketing process, exactly as outlined by inLife.  It’s a process that works.  If you choose to enroll a retailer, it’ll be your job to convince them of the incredible opportunity by doing it our way and instruct them how to integrate the inLife business into their current retail outlet.

Here are some suggestions:

1.    The retailer needs to decide which devices they want to carry and be sure they have an ample supply of units, cartridges, batteries, chargers, and atomizers on hand.  To cut down on the inventory cost, they may want to carry only 2 of the devices; say the Regal and the Royale.

2.    When a customer first comes in, the retailer must be knowledgeable enough to demonstrate and sell the inLife device.  Tell the customer to go home, charge the unit, try out the different nicotine levels in the kit, and come back when they know what cartridges they like best.

3.    When the customer returns for cartridges, explain the value of enrolling with inLife as a “Customer” so they can go on line and order everything and have it shipped direct.  Be sure the retailer has computer up and running at the checkout area all the time.  Just leave it logged into their back office.  Then, all they’ll have to do is enter the password and start to sign people up.

·         Have the retailer develop a simple signup sheet for customers to fill out with all the information needed to enroll.  Be sure it has a place to insert their new user name and password.  The retailer can then take that sheet and set up their new replicated website.  Give the customer back the sheet so they’ll have something to remember their username & password.

·         The retailer should develop an information sheet that tells new customers how to access their replicated website, how to get on autoship, and how order things and check their orders through their back office.  Also, include an “Information Package” which should include a copy of the inLife pamphlet, the opportunity CD, and an opportunity meeting invitation flyer with each kit sold.

·         The retailer should offer weekly opportunity meetings to customers with meeting times and dates that should be included in the information flyer.  Call each customer that received the information package and invite them to one of the meetings.  The rest is routine.

Retailers already have a great venue for distributing inLife products and an existing customer base.  Many have a strong advertising program that can easily be modified to include the inLife products.  But, the key to their success, and yours, will come when they stop thinking like a retailer and start thinking like a network marketer.  And, they must understand that you are not a company sales representative that is there to solve all their problems and give them incentives.
