Donald Trump Network Marketing

Trump Network Review

When I first heard Donald Trump was starting a multi-level marketing company I thought, here we go again, Donald Trump is going to prey on a bunch of simple, naive people who will buy into all the hype and probably end up getting burned. We all know Mr. Trump likes to make money, money, money, money! So, Im thinking, what is his plan with this Trump Network launch? He must be just promoting this company, or letting them use the rights to his name for a certain period of time for a big pay check, or some type of royalties. Is he really entering the MLM world??

The answer is an astounding YES. Anybody that has read all of Donald Trump’s array of books or been to an event where he was a guest speaker, then you would probably know that he has always been a big admirer of network marketing. He was actually giving a speech 5 years ago and someone in the crowd asked him what he would do if he had to start all over, and he said I would get into network marketing. Of course that brought a few chuckles from the crowd. Then do you know what he said? A few of you might be laughing, but you know what? Thats why youre down there and Im up here! True story.

Donald Trump has never been politically correct, and he has also never been someone who gets to the show late. He has made many risky moves over the years that has had people cringing down at him thinking he was crazy. But in the end most of his moves have ended up making him look like a genius. He has literally helped transcend areas of New York City with some of his risky real estate moves, arguably the most powerful city in the world.

After hearing about Mr. Trump entering the MLM industry I did a little research and found out that the Direct Selling industry is a $32 Billion industry in the U.S., over $100 Billion worldwide, and not ONE company has more than 5% market share!! Not even Amway! What does this mean? This means that there is a serious opportunity for a company to come in and take over a large portion of the market. In almost every industry there is usually a few major players who dominate the market and build barriers to entry for its competition. Theres Ford, GM, and Chrysler. Theres Nike, Adidas. Theres General Mills, theres Proctor and Gamble, theres Microsoft, Dell, Apple. I could go on and on

The one thing there has never been in the network marketing world has been a brand name. Anyone that understands true marketing understands that branding is EVERYTHING. Once you build an influential brand, bringing new products to market is a completely different game than it is for the company that does not have that brand presence. That other company must spend MUCH MORE money and time promoting their new product or service in order to have a successful launch.

I dont think anyone in the world could mobilize the network marketing industry, give it the credibility and the exposure that Donald Trump could. The MLM industry is a very competitive industry and that is the main reason why there is so much bad press out there, but when you look closely at it, all the companies in MLM have different products or services, but they all have ONE thing in common: they are promoting an opportunity to earn an income building an organization of people selling that companys particular product or service. So who better than Donald Trump to be marketing a new business opportunity that anyone can get involved in and have unlimited earning potential? When you really think about it MLM companies are selling the ability to become an entrepreneur and own your own business. And Donald Trump is a worldwide icon of Capitalism and the poster child of an Entrepreneur.

I know that Donald Trump is VERY protective of his brand so I would be willing to bet that he did some serious investigation before taking the leap into the MLM world and putting that brand at risk. According to some executives over at the Trump Network, Mr. Trump and his team looked closely at 26 companies before they chose to partner with Ideal Health and re-launch as the Trump Network. Ideal Health is a twelve year old company that specialized in one main product line for ten years: customized nutracueticals based on metabolic functional testing. They use the premier metabolic functional testing lab in the world, Metametrix Labs, based in Atlanta, GA. Yes, they are another health and wellness company, BUT they have a unique line of products that are actually priced much lower than you would be able to get them through a natural path doctor or nutritional specialist. The master plan is to launch many best of breed products over the next few years that fall into the Trump criteria of quality.

The most compelling reason however, that I believe the Trump Network will end up taking up some significant market share is because of this new Wealth Creation System they are launching in the middle of May, 2010. They have created a system that I believe will transform the network marketing industry forever. This will not be an industry where the only people that can be successful are people with a huge power of influence and/or a huge database of people to tap into. The most difficult part about this business has always been getting enough people exposed to your opportunity, and being able to invite those people to take a proper look at the business so they can make a sound decision.

Donald Trump and the Trump Network have created a system called The Wealth Creation System that will give the average person, who may not have a huge network of people to talk to about the business, the ability to get massive exposure and funnel those exposures into a professional sales funnel that gives professional presentations and plugs new marketers and customers into a training and education platform seamlessly.

The reason I know this system will work and will explode peoples’ businesses is because of one thing and one thing only: The Trump Brand. Because of this new system, getting enrolled in the Trump Network will be more like buying into a franchise, instead of rolling the dice and spending your time and energy in a typical network marketing company with no brand recognition. I own multiple franchise locations with two separate successful franchises myself, and the reason we were able to be profitable right out of the gate was because we had a strong local brand already established, so when we opened our doors people recognized our name and came in. But more importantly, when we send out direct mail pieces and do radio and TV campaigns, our potential customers open the mail, or listen to our ads, because they know who we are. This is why several mom and pops have closed their doors around me over the past 6 years. They cannot compete.

Most people that are involved in the network marketing or direct sales industry do not understand the power of branding and marketing. Even if they have been successful and have huge organizations they have built these organizations with serious dedication, hard work, and a lot of time. The reasons I have outlined above are why this company will dominate the MLM world and become a powerhouse people will build organizations in one to two years that took several years to build in other MLMs. Do you realize how much time and money has been spent on opening up different countries as these other network marketing companies have gone international? MASSIVE AMOUNTS. As the Trump Network expands into other countries, the marketing strategies will be so simple compared to other MLMs it is almost laughable. Trump is heavily branded in 18 countries and he is revered as one of the greatest entrepreneurs of all time. When this company goes international toward the end of this year GAME OVER. I just hope all the people out there who are smart and savvy, but might not quite yet understand the power of branding and marketing, dont miss out.

Internet Marketing Negative Effects Of Not Managing Time

Posted on by

To become a successful internet marketer you will need to develop certain skills that are key to that success. One of the key skills that you will need to learn and use is time management. Managing your time the right way is a very important aspect of running a healthy online business. The truth of the matter is, if you are not managing your time correctly your internet business may encounter negative effects. In this article you will get to see what some of he negative effects are.

Falling behind in your work. Because there are so many different tasks and operations that have to be done to run a successful internet marketing campaign, from setting up your salespage, to driving targeted traffic to that site and much more. Without the proper management of your time it is easy for any individual to fall behind.

Loss of organization. Poor time manage management can often lead one into major organization problems, Being unorganized can cause you to lose track of what is that you should be doing at a particular time, or place, also loss of valuable and important information pertaining to your business. Wasting valuable time because you have to figure out what you did or didn’t do. Where you left off or where to start. This can be avoided by having a simple daily list of thing you want to do, this is a way to begin to keep track of what you have done and what you need to do.

Becoming overwhelmed. Another negative effect of not managing your time is the ability to become overwhelmed with the many tasks that must be done to operate your internet business. Operating a successful online business has many aspects and can take a lot of time. If you end up spending to much of that time on only one aspect of your business… say, your website graphics, or getting it perfect in your eyes, then you may run into the problem of neglecting other necessary task involved with your businesses success, like getting targeted traffic to that website, or optimizing that website to ensure top page rankings in the search engines. This approach can lead to you finding yourself overwhelmed with a lot of task not implemented or finished.

Playing the catch up game. Now that you have fallen behind, no organization, and having become overwhelmed, you can find yourself in the awkward position of attempting to play the “catch up game”, trying hard to get yourself back in a position where you are in control of what your next task will be, also when and how it will be completed. Playing this catch up game can move a individual to a point where they may even want to give up on their project. My advice to you is to take a little time to think it over, relax, and come up with a workable plan. Giving up will only lead to failure.

Loss of focus. Losing your focus and becoming vulnerable to distractions is another symptom of poor time management. Managing your time correctly should ensure that you have your workday scheduled out. Distractions are bound to pop up during the work day, how you handle them is what is crucial. Keeping focus on those tasks that you have scheduled out for your work day will help you resist the urges to fall prey to any distraction that may surface.

Because most internet marketers start their businesses from home it is easy for many distractions to pop up. I found it a very good idea to make sure that individuals in my life know when my work hours are and that during this time I do not want to be disturbed unless necessary. This works well because these are people pulling for your success also. Limit phone calls to business calls during your work hours. The important thing is you need to get the distraction time under control and to a minimum.

Loss of potential income. Now we come to the bottom line, that is that “time is money” especially when you are in your own internet marketing business. If you are wasting time and not getting the needed tasks done to promote your business the right way, you will not make money. Improper time management can lead to loss of income and eventual internet business failure.

I have made this list of negative effects to impress on the reader the importance of proper time management in their home online businesses. By incorporating a good work schedule for your daily work projects and task, you can avoid the negative effects mentioned above and help ensure a more positive result in your internet marketing efforts because of your time well spent.

Learning From Rolex’s Example How To Market Luxury Goods

Posted on by

Authenticity and Essentialism are Innate Desires
The world is filled with duplicity. Knock-off has become a term that means the same, but different in terms of quality and price. By nature humans want to be original since every human is an original creation that can not be duplicated in terms of thoughts, beliefs, and energy.

Consumers want to buy original products that present an image of uniqueness as well as quality and value and theres no better example than Rolex watches when it comes to proving that humans innately want to express their own quality, value, and uniqueness through the goods and services they purchase.

Rolex Watches entered the world of Horology in 1905 when Alfred James Davis and Hans Wilhelm Wilsdorf founded Wilsdorf and Davis Ltd. Wilsdorf created three watches that passed rigorous accuracy tests before the company was formed so it was a natural step to start a watch company with his English partner Davis who was his brother-in-law. The company became a family affair and they registered the name Rolex in Switzerland in 1908 even though that name had no real meaning other than it was easy to spell, easy to say in various languages, and easy to remember in all of them.

In 1915 the company was officially renamed the Rolex Watch Company and it finally became Rolex SA which is the driving force behind today’s successful marketing program.

By 1945 Rolex Had Established Its Manufacturing Prowess
During the 1920s and 1930s Rolex carved a luxury name for itself by receiving several awards for precision and quality from four renowned observatories: Geneva, Kew, Besancon and Neuchatel. A chain of internal events took place before the Second World War and they also had a significant impact on the evolution of luxury Rolex Watches.

The famous Crown or Coronet logo was trademarked in 1925 and the name Rolex began to appear on the dial in 1926. The company also changed the design of its case and began using hermetically sealed cases designed by the Swiss craftsman Francis Baumgartner. These new cases made Rolex Watches almost waterproof.

Wilsdorf also bought the patent for a new moisture-proof winding system in 1926, and that addition produced the Oyster, which was the first watch with a waterproof case. The oyster was worn by an English swimmer who swam the English Channel in 1927, and the impetus from that marketing campaign set the stage for future luxury marketing tactics.

Rolex watches were marketed and advertised as wonder watches. The company made improvements in the Oyster which increased its status. It was the first watch to be called waterproof at 100 feet under water. That feat made it a watch rock star almost overnight.

The pricey Prince was introduced in 1928 and it is still a popular style today for men who want to express their innate uniqueness and material success. New adjustable six position balances were also introduced in 1928 and in 1932 the company introduced the self-winding feature. In 1935 the Super Balance was introduced to improve the design of its Auto Rotor.

In 1935 Rolex acquired the exclusive rights to Aeglers movements and that was a strategic move that allowed the company to focus on the US market. In 1937 Rolex introduced the first chronograph wristwatch. British pilots wore the Rolex Oyster during the war to signify their excellence and success. After the war the company gave every British prisoner of war a new Rolex since they lost their originals to their captors. Those replacement watches didnt have to be paid for until after the war and that move turned out to be an incredible marketing tool.

Rolex Still Sets a High Marketing Bar
Rolex is still launching new watches and unique marketing campaigns that emphasize quality, prestige, and individuality. The company produces over 2,000 watches a day and is ranked in the top 100 global companies by Business Week Magazine. It holds the top spot for among all watch makers in terms of product recognition, perceived quality, and creative design features and functions.

Tradition meets innovation and Rolex uses that philosophy to create a luxury watch marketing campaign that continues to break price barriers. Their marketing campaign is rooted in authenticity and essentialism as well as the rich heritage of quality timepiece manufacturing.
