In this case, I'd have to say getting involved with this pre-launch might not have been the best choice for you.

First you say that you were convinced to join because you know your sponsor, which I'm assuming means you know him personally. Do you know how long he's been in business, whether or not he's been successful, and how much he'll be able to help you succeed?

It sounds like he's not providing much training and that you are not in a position to train your team. It doesn't matter how big your "line" is, or who is in your upline... if no one is producing, no one is succeeding. You and your team need a plan.

And what about the product? Have you had a chance to try it? Do you know enough about it to know that you will be able to wholeheartedly use and endorse it? Will there be sufficient production to fill the first orders? How is the pricing compared to similar products?

I think there's often many unknowns in a pre-launch that make it more risky than joining an established business. But others think that the potential benefit of getting in early is worth the risk. It's up to you to decide how much risk you're willing to take.

Of course all of that is not to say that you can't learn quickly and make a go of it. It's a great start that you recognize that you need some training and that you are looking for help.

I strongly recommend that you learn how to generate your own leads. My expertise is with the more traditional party plan type direct sales opportunities, but some of my material may be applicable. However, the person I would go to for training if I ever joined an MLM is Paul Cooley. Find him at http://www.paulcooleymarketing.com

Hi,

Multi-level marketing is rapidly gaining ground and most businesses are operating purely through this method. This way, they are able to expand their market to include those who have no access to the mainstream media. In order to record success, you need to give it seriousness, dedication and planning, as you would any other business.

Well,

Multilevel marketing is a skill that takes time to learn. If you have spent years perfecting your business offline it can be scary to learn the new skill of conducting business online. There is no need for you to feel alone in this venture though. If you want to make money from home these days the internet can make it much easier than it ever was in the past.

Turning your business into an online business is just the smart thing to do. Doing business off line is becoming less popular every day. You have to keep up with the changing times.

Hi,

Network marketing is a multi-billion dollar industry involving millions of independent business people around the globe. Network marketing is a 'BIG' small business, which offers everyone, with or without business experience, the opportunity to start and run a home-based business that works.
