What is a Top Tier Program?
I have heard of Top Tier Programs as an alternative to traditional Network Marketing or MLM programs. What is the difference?
Network, or Multi-Level Marketing, is an approach to marketing whereby the salespeople, or distributors, are compensated not only for their own sales, but also for the sales of others whom they recruit. In addition to the person actually making the sale, in MLM the available profit margin is split between the company and the upline. In other words, the distributor is paid a commission based on the amount of product they sell, and also the amount their downline (those they have recruited) sells. MLM has been in existence for over 50 years, and is still the most common form of network marketing.
Top Tier Programs on the other hand, are relatively recent additions to the Network Marketing industry. In a Top Tier Program, the person making the sale is paid immediately, even before the company. This is more similar to a direct sales or affiliate marketing program than MLM. Whereas an MLM program typically sells lower end consumable products such as vitamins, beauty products, heath juices, and diet products, a Top Tier Program typically sells much more expensive products such as wealth education, personal development, and travel programs. The [url=http://www.achbanker.com/home.php]hollister france[/url] cost of these programs can be anywhere from $500 to $15,000. These are usually one time purchases.
What are the advantages of Top Tier Programs?
The main advantage of a Top Tier Program is that the distributor is paid a large commission immediately up front. This commission is much larger than in MLM, typically 50% or more. Therefore you can recoup your investment much more quickly. MLM on the other hand requires a high volume of sales and a large downline organization to be built before making significant amounts of money.
Another advantage of [url=http://www.rtnagel.com/louboutin.php]louboutin pas cher[/url] Top Tier Programs is that it can be more amenable to online marketing methods. MLM programs have traditionally utilized offline methods. Many traditional MLM companies discourage online methods, although today this is rapidly changing.
A third advantage is that Top Tier Programs are not as demanding of unswerving loyalty to the company. In any business it is advisable to diversify one's sources of income. Top Tier programs tend to be comfortable with their distributors having relationships with other companies.
Lastly, because of the high cost [url=http://www.mansmanifesto.com]doudoune moncler[/url] of getting on board a Top Tier Program, these programs usually provide their new distributors much better marketing training.
What are the disadvantages of Top Tier Programs?
The main disadvantage of Top Tier Programs is the much higher start up costs, which can [url=http://www.vivid-host.com/barbour.htm]barbour uk[/url] be many times that of MLM. This hefty price tag can often be prohibitive for many seeking to enter a Top Tier Program. It must be kept in mind however, that this is a one time fee which can often be recouped more quickly.
Another disadvantage of Top Tier Programs is that you give up the [url=http://www.orlando-apts.com/nfljerseys/]cheap nfl jerseys[/url] benefits of the residual income which can be obtained with MLM. Each sale is a one time deal. Although proponents of Top Tier Programs will point out that the majority of those who enter MLM programs will [url=http://www.gotprintsigns.com/jordanpascher/]jordan pas cher[/url] never end up making significant money, it is a fact that some individuals who work hard over a long period of time will succeed in MLM. The attraction of continuing to make money in the future for work done today is undeniable.
A third disadvantage of Top Tier Programs is that there are a few which require you to give back your first two [url=http://www.gotprintsigns.com/jordanpascher/]air jordan pas cher[/url] commissions to a sponsor. In my opinion those are scams and you should avoid these.
How are Top Tier Programs Marketed?
As mentioned earlier, Top Tier Programs are typically marketed using online methods. These online methods can include content marketing techniques such as blogging, article marketing, and video marketing. They can also include paid marketing techniques such as ezine ads, banner ads, solo ads, pay-per-click, and list builders, or social marketing techniques such as Facebook, Youtube, and Twitter.
Okay, so which program is best for me- Top Tier or MLM?
That depends upon your personal financial situation and personality. If you are [url=http://www.gotprintsigns.com/abercrombiepascher/]abercrombie pas cher[/url] someone of limited financial means who likes working with a team, enjoys building relationships, and doesn't mind working hard today for a potential financial reward which can continue indefinitely into the future, you should probably start out with traditional Network Marketing.
On the other hand, if you are someone who can afford the higher initial startup cost of a Top Tier Program, wants to see your investment in time and money pay off sooner rather than later, and loves diving into the intricacies of computers and [url=http://www.vivid-host.com/barbour.htm]barbour uk outlet[/url] the internet, a Top Tier Program is probably for you.
Some people eventually get involved in both programs. It is possible to start [url=http://www.mansmanifesto.com]www.mansmanifesto.com[/url] out with one program, and end up combining the quick cash of a Top Tier Program with the long term residual income of MLM.
One final note- whichever program you choose, your success will depend upon hard work and perseverance. You should give up the notion that you are going to get rich quickly with either one. We have all [url=http://www.orlando-apts.com/nfljerseys/]nfl jerseys[/url] heard the statistics about the high drop-out [url=http://www.seattlesoycandles.com]hollister france[/url] rate for people who begin these types of programs, and in all honesty, those statistics are probably true. The sad fact is that most people will join a program based on the emotional appeal of an effective sales pitch. They love the concept, but eventually drop out when faced with the discouraging reality of the hard work and the inevitable initial failures. Success is possible, but realistic expectations are a must.
However, if you have realistic expectations, perseverance, and the determination to succeed, then do your homework, find a program and company which meets your needs, and go for it.
Whatever you decide, good luck!
