Build Your Advertising Budget with a (flash website designs) Funded Proposal
By Ben Needles
If youre reading this you are definitely someone who is determined to grow, stretch out of your comfort zone and train yourself to succeed in Network Marketing.
You know that 97% of home businesses fail and you wont be a part of that. There are several reasons the majority of people who start a Network Marketing or M.L.M. business fail. However, the major reason most fail is due to the lack of an advertising budget and having very little to no cash flow.
Most Network Marketers overspend and use ineffective marketing techniques like speaking to everyone within three feet (the 3 foot rule), cold calling and buying business opportunity seeker leads. Oftentimes we cant get into profit mode fast enough to keep afloat.
To add insult to injury, statistically, 97% of our prospects or leads will never join our business.
However, there IS a way we can capitalize on that 97% that never join us in our primary business and monetize to build our advertising budget.
The way we do this is by offering high quality information that will assist our prospects. But what information are our prospects seeking?
If we are looking to find other Network Marketers to partner with, we can surely offer a solution to create a bigger and better advertising budget while we build our Network Marketing business.
The way we do this is by marketing a low-end retail product that will assist others with this particular problem. Offering a low-end retail product to monetize while growing a business is known as a funded proposal. This will allow you to build an advertising budget while you are growing your Network Marketing business.
Now before we go into talking about which funded proposal concepts are worth looking into lets talk about building a list.
You should have your very own lead capture page and offer a freebie in exchange for a prospects contact information, such as a free e-book or business tips. This will enable you to build a relationship with your prospects - very different from what you can do with prospects generated from those very generic lead companies and your company-replicated websites.
Many network marketing companies have their own capture pages, but they dont brand you as a leader, so it is important for you to eventually market yourself first by creating your very own capture page. This topic is beyond the scope of this article, but worth mentioning.
There are many products you can retail as a funded proposal. And there are several that are well-suited for Network Marketers.
The primary funded proposal I use is a training system that teaches Network Marketers how to attract business partners and product customers using social media/web 2.0 sites, such as YouTube, MySpace, and Facebook, as well as the Internet. This is also known as internet attraction marketing.
Internet Attraction Marketers build relationships with their own leads - instead of recruit - by offering high quality internet marketing and web 2.0 training. This way your prospects are being educated before they even join your business. And even if they dont join your business, you have retailed a product thats helpful to them and have increased your advertising budget!
The Renegade University teaches:
— Step-by-step video tutorials on how to create a web of internet content that point to you so that you attract high quality prospects.
— How to use YouTube and other video sites to your advantage to attract others to you.
— How to use internet articles like this one to build your lead list.
— How to use press releases to build your lead list.
— How to build internet traffic to your primary network marketing company and to your Renegade University site.
Renegade University was founded after the release of The Renegade Network Marketer by Ann Sieg. The Renegade Network Marketer sets the groundwork for the importance of building relationships and becoming a true marketing expert so that you can truly succeed in Network Marketing.
The neat thing about using The Renegade University as a funded proposal is that you can build your advertising budget several ways.
First, in order for your prospects to get the real expert training at Renegade University, they must purchase the book, The Renegade Network Marketer, which they can buy from your website. You also monetize when the network marketer upgrades their Renegade University account to the professional level. Thirdly, having members at the professional level allows you to monetize every month as long as they are active in the program.
The Renegade University is not the only funded proposal out there that caters to Network Marketers, but it is a great generic training program that will help you monetize, build a nice advertising budget and even team build too.

Writing An Attention Getting Press Release
By Chris Simpson
Whether you are writing it for yourself or for someone else, a press release is not written like an ordinary article. The format is different and the tone can’t sound like a hyped up sales pitch. It should read more like a news item. Since you are likely to submit it to a press release web site, you want to be sure it meets their guidelines. To do this, avoid using exclamation points as these are considered hype tags.
To prepare yourself mentally to write a press release, it can help to imagine yourself as a news reporter covering the opening of a new store. This helps you get in the right mood and that can help you to write it the way it should be.
Like a news reporter, think in terms of writing the who, what, when, where and why of the press release’s topic. Also keep it in the third person. The writing should be objective, not subjective, so avoid using the pronoun ‘I’ and ‘we’ and don’t make it too personal with the over use of ‘you’.
No matter where you are going to submit the press release, the same basic format is used. Once you are familiar with it, it is easy to follow. Below are the different components of the format you will need to use.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Any press release you write should have this at the top of the page. It can be done without it but press releases that begin with this header tend to be more effective than those without it.
Contact Information
The contact information can go at either the beginning of the press release right after FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE or at the very end. It will depend on whether it is for publishing online or in print.
Headline
The headline basically tells what the press release is about in a nutshell. To make it more effective, bold it and keep it at about 80 characters.
Date and Info
People reading the press release will want to know the source, so include the name of the city and the date of the release.
Lead-in Paragraph
This is the most crucial paragraph of the entire press release. This is where you must grab the reader’s attention in order for the press release to be successful. The key information of the press release will be in this paragraph and the rest of the piece will expand on it. Remember the who, what, when, where and why that was mentioned earlier? This is where you want to incorporate it.
The body of the press release
This part of the press release may be several paragraphs and will expand on what you covered in the lead-in paragraph. Whenever possible, it is helpful to include quotes in the body. This helps to draw the reader’s attention and hold it.
Recap and conclusion
In this last part of the press release, you will want to summarize the press release and give something to make the reader think. This can be the date of the press release or something of interest about product, service, website or store.
These are the basics of writing a good press release. Just remember that you want to catch the attention and interest of the reader in what the press release is announcing or promoting. With a little practice, you will soon be writing effective, interesting press releases.
