If you’ve never had the experience you’re very lucky….
You just joined a great new MLM company and are excited and ready to go, you e-mail your sponsor to find out what’s next.
Days pass…
No response.
You try again but still nothing.
So, how do you avoid this terrible fate?
I’m glad you asked, here are the 3 ways you can use to find your perfect MLM sponsor:
1. Find out if he’s active
Nothing drives me crazier then joining a company and finding out my sponsor isn’t doing anything to work the business.
If the company has a scoreboard or ranking site, see if he’s on it. Check out his websites in Google and see how they’re set up.
The important thing is to make sure he’s making an effort 
2. E-mail or Call him
Take a minute “before” you join up to e-mail or call him with questions.
Ask him whatever you like and see if he responds.
Don’t think you’re bothering your prospective mentor, if he’s the right person he won’t mind.
3. Find out how long he’s been with the company
Another thing you’ll run into is finding a sponsor that’s been with the company a week and has no clue.
Now don’t get me wrong, it’s okay to be new but the “blind leading the blind” isn’t going to help anyone.
When you’re sending him the e-mail from step 2 just ask him how long he’s been with the company and see what happens.
*Remember*
The relationship you’re forming will be lasting a really long time, you want to be sure he’s the right person to help you build your team.
Follow these steps and soon you’ll find a sponsor you’re happy with that will help you take your new MLM business to the next level.

So, you’ve joined that great money making scheme, and you’ve
even got a few members in your downline. So, now what? How do
you keep your sign-ups interested and working for you? And, yes,
I DO mean working for you. When you start out on a program, you
are effectively becoming the MD of your own organisation, and
all of those below you need your motivation, guidance and
assistance if they are to make money for themselves and, in
turn, make money for you.
The biggest mistake you can probably make is to think that once
you’ve got your sign-up, the hard work is over. You’ve got your
sign-up and you’ve made a couple of dollars, so why worry? Well,
as any experienced marketer will tell you, a sign-up commission
is fine, but the real bucks are made when your sign-ups start
signing up, and the residual bonuses start pouring in.
Therefore, when you’ve recruited someone into your program, the
work has only just begun.
One of the biggest problems you will find is that people join
your scheme, and then do nothing. It is surprising, but as much
as 90% of your downline will probably remain inactive. So, why
do these people join? Well, there can be many reasons. Some
people join programs out of curiosity, some to get the freebies
that were on offer, whilst others just don’t know what they’re
doing!
It’s up to you, therefore, to motivate your recruits into
action. Now, this is not necessarily as difficult as it may
seem, provided that you remember the 3 golden rules:
1. Communication. 2. Communication. 3. Communication.
There is nothing worse than joining a new program and being left
to it with no advice or help from anyone. So, it is important to
start off on the right footing, by communicating with your new
program member from the outset - and keep it going. Here are 5
ways that you can achieve this.
1. Send a welcoming letter to all new sign ups. If someone has
joined your program, thank them for doing so. Let them feel
welcome and a part of your team. Make sure that they are fully
aware of how the program works, and offer help and advice if
they need it.
2. Answer all queries quickly. If somebody DOES ask for help,
don’t ignore them, or it will be the last you’ll hear from them.
Even if you don’t know the answer immediately, a quick note back
to say, “I don’t know, but I’ll find out”, will be much
appreciated. But, do remember to get back to them as soon as you
can.
3. Don’t get frustrated with basic or idiotic questions. Bear in
mind that what appears to be a “stupid” question to you may not
be to somebody new to the Net - we are not all HTML/marketing
geniuses! Just remember, if they are contacting you, then at
least they are they are communicating with you.
4. If your program has a “Email your downline” facility - use
it! Email your people often. Tell them the latest news on your
program or give them hints and tips. If you haven’t got much to
say, then tell them a joke - tell them anything. Just remind
them you are there.
5. Don’t be afraid to repeat yourself. It’s always a good idea
to save some of your messages, and repeat them periodically.
Remember that your more recent recruits won’t have seen your
earlier messages, and it never does any harm for your long-time
downline members to re-read an earlier email. Conventional
wisdom states that a person needs to hear a message SEVEN times
before they will buy into it.
As stated, communication is the secret to managing your
downline. You Internet program is a business like any other.Like
all businesses, its most valuable resource is the people who
work for it. Therefore, since people like to talk, talk to them!

When you’re hiring a data projector for your presentation you will often come across a decision to be made - that is DLP or LCD projector. The differences are in many cases extremely technical, and the layman may end up more confused than ever! We have put together a very brief summary of what you need to know when hiring a projector.
DLP or Digital Light Processor is a new technology which allows a much smaller projector to be made. So if portability is important, for example if you are going on a plane with the projector, then it may pay to look at DLP. The DLP chips themselves are made by US company Texas Instruments, and they have been aggressively marketing the concept for some years. This gives them a perceived advantage over the LCD manufacturers who are all competing against each other.
The new breed of LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) projectors is however fighting back on the size front with the introduction of a new smaller panel, allowing manufacturers to create higher resolution portable projectors.
Both camps claim issues occur with the opposition:
DLP sometimes suffers from the ‘rainbow effect’ where the picture appears as a rainbow briefly noticeable when changing focus from one part of the screen to another. It appears as a secondary image that appears at the viewer’s peripheral vision and is generally noticeable when shifting focus from a high contrast area or bright object. This does not appear in “3 chip” DLP projectors, but these tend to be very high end projectors in terms of price.
LCD sometimes suffers from what is called “screen door” effect, meaning the picture is pixilated and appears as if you’re watching TV through a screen door. Again the newer LCD projectors have improved the aperture ratio to address this and it is much less of an issue than before. Similarly DLP projectors used to claim a much higher contrast ratio - i.e. blacks were much blacker than LCD; but some of the latest LCD models achieve a 6000:1 ratio, matching the best DLP ones.
Both types are going through constant changes and improvements, to the point where one cannot be said to have an overwhelming advantage over the other. So, unless you have a very specialized need for your presentation, go with the projector model that fits in terms of weight, size, brightness and price.
