Global Resorts Network and Web 2.0 Marketing
Representatives of Global Resorts Network – and Internet business opportunities in general – face any number of choices when figuring out how to market their business properly. Time, money, expertise - these are the three most important factors that make or break a business.
In this article, I'm going to show a way to get your Global Resorts Network marketing strategy up to speed - without wasting all your time on your PC or going through your budget.  But first, let's take a look at what's new in Internet marketing.
Web 2.0 – Blessing or Curse?

It's all about information, interaction, and interest. Web 2.0 owes its appeal to the fact that it's easy and usually free - just generate content and stick it on your site. But in the end, Internet marketing is all about numbers. Your marketing strategy starts to seem like a burden - building your sites and pages and profiles, going through hours of disheartening grunt work, and never seeing the results you know can be reached.  You've got a product, you've got a plan, and you've got the funds - now, you need the time, the experience and the know-how to make it a reality.

 Successful Marketers Go Virtual

 A full marketing pipeline is the only goal. When you call in the troops - a Virtual Assistant, an article writer, someone to set up and maintain all your sites, pages, content and such - you're spending your budget on generating sales instead of scattered attempts that have no cohesive plan connecting them all. 

 You simply monitor your traffic, and then get back to working toward your goals - answering phone calls, planning new strategies, making videos, and setting aside time to sit with pen in hand, doing some outside-the-box thinking.

 
With a Global Resorts Network business, you have a lot on your plate if you want to reach your business goals.

Global Resorts Network: Fun and profit!

Global Resorts Network combines making solid money, finding a great deal and going on vacation. How? The answer is simple:

1. For a one-time fee of $3,000, a lifetime membership allows you to stay at top four- and five-star resorts worldwide for a fraction of the price - as low as $300 per week.

2. You can bring others on board by becoming a Global Resorts Network Dstributor. You receive $1,000 each time you sell a membership as well as whenever one of your downline members sells a membership, your first sale excluded. This generates both active and passive incomes for you.

Reverse Funnel System: What is it?

Obviously, your success as a distributor depends on your marketing skills

Addressing this need is where the RFS cashes within the Global Resorts Network Opportunity. Just as distributors get overwhelmed by all of their tasks and follow ups and cold calls, "superhero" Ty Coughlin shows up to save the day with a promise of riches beyond your wildest dreams. For practically no work at all - "It's as easy as one two three" - he guarantees, "The Reverse Funnel System is a system that works." He seems like a wealthy guy .

The  System sounds mysterious - you "qualify" for the chance to pay $50 just to find out what it is! - but of course, since it is fully automated it can be used by anyone. So, which one is it?

Make no mistake: of course many people have made a lot of money with this system.  

However, let's not forget, there are other ways, and there is, of course self-branding. Instead of taking the person out of of the equation, put it back in. Simple, and why not? If you think you have personality, why hide. 

Using platfroms and all kinds of systems obviously CAN increas your revenue within the Global Resorts Network Opportunity (or any other opportunity, for that matter). can supposedly make your income increase by following a few simple instructions. But, like any MLM or home-based business, while you're free to be your own boss - you're the boss. Everything depends on you, and many distributors feel that the most vital part - the branding part - should not go towards branding someone else. In the end, it's a choice only you can make.

This is where self-branding YOU can be your secret to success. In a world of automated tasks, robotic voice prompts and useless call centers, you - your personality, your accessibility, your uniqueness, your marketing skills, your expertise - become the factor they are interested in.

Put it this way: If a stranger tried to sell you something that cost $3,000, you'd probably tell him to give you some of whatever he's drinking. But, what if your best friend told you about an unbelievable opportunity that cost only three grand? You'd definitely be more inclined to listen - and you'd also be more willing to part with your money. Your future downline members want a leader, not a "marketing platform." And more than ANYTHING else this is what they want: your expertise! They don't care at all about your looks, the way you pose, your religion or sex. Can you help them make money, yes or no?

It's what Mike Dillard calles Selleducation. I hope I spelled that right. The concept means, you sell by educating first. That is ultimately what people are looking for, a techer, a mentor, and once they learn from you they will also respect you. And most of them will buy from you.

Self-branding develops a relationship between you and your leads so that you become their ally and mentor. If you've done a solid job self-branding, when it's time to talk about purchasing a membership they'll not only jump at the chance to buy in - they'll want to deal only with you, even after having done the proper due diligence.

Self-branding makes the kind of marketing magic for your Global Resorts Network business that cannot be automated, like in the Reverse Funnel System - and that means consistent sales from confirmed leads, as well as downline members that you can rely on for new leads and great commissions.

Marketing for success....

Some like it, some don't, as I said before, the choice is really yours.

So let me follow with some general information for those of you that are interested in the product itself:  

Global Resors Network GRN) is an all-inclusive travel management company. Member benefits include:


    * Deeply discounted accommodations at luxury resorts.
    * Deals on airfares and cruises
    * Package deals
    * Full service travel agency

* Participation in the seven trillion dollar travel industry.
* A $1000 commission for every $3000 sale.
* $1000 for every $3000 sale (except the first).


Most people don’t like selling. What you sell, how you sell, and who you sell to: these are decisions that can paralyze any Global Resorts Network distributor. When so many MLMs fail, how can you ensure that yours will be one of the five percent that succeed? This is where your marketing platform proves its worth.

Because it is the nature of the MLM beast to be challenging, people look for easy answers, which is entirely understandable.

There are other options for marketing yourdistributorship, such as implementing the funded proposals method. This works hand-in-hand with self-branding, which is the marketing of you. It is what makes you unique and better than the myriad of other sources available. Self-branding focuses on the building of your reputation and name. So, one way to go:

Market a secondary product that is easily and inexpensively produced and distributed, such as an ebook, CD, DVD, newsletter, or email series.  Now, don't freak out, because I know you don't have a product like that. Help is on the way.

I very, very strongly suggest, that you familiarize yourself with the concept of "funded proposal". Would you say that there is a reason why most people spend themselves out of business? It's because they are not running their business like a business. The are getting broke! You need to market something that will appeal to everyone (and costs much less) in order to make the money which you can then use to pay for your .....google adwords ("pay-per-click") for example. How long can you afford throwing let's say 500 bucks a month out the window? Even within Global Resorts Network, it is  unfortunate, that this concept is not being taught more often.

Both banner-adds on this site basically represent funded proposal methods. One is by Mike Dillard (it's famous), the other one is newer but has the advantage of funneling you into the best training that I at least have ever seen, as the "7 Lies ebook" will ultimately try to upsell you into a program called Renegade University, which I am a part of myself, and I think there is no better training if you want to develop a massive web-presence (squidoo, blogs, hubpages.com, ezines etc) in absolute record-time. Except, of course, what I call the "secret ingredient" which you will learn about when you opt ito my squeeze page. The book itself is for free of course (the blue one at the bottom is not, but it's killer-stuff).  If neither one appeals to you, that's fine. But you gotta have your own game-plan then, your own product or some sort of idea, or chances are this is not going to work - whether you are marketing Global Resorts Network- or not.
