Is there anything a customer hates more than someone who tries to SELL them something? Whether it’s at the car dealership, the perfume counter or at your front door, we’ve all fallen victim to the overzealous salesperson in our lives. The thing they don’t seem to realize is that no one buys anything from such a salesperson! So, what do we who sell Global Resorts Network memberships to do? The good news is, there are a number of ways to avoid being avoided.
The difference between trying to sell a product and having interested parties come to you is in how you market your product, your business, and yourself. As the owner of an MLM or online home-based business you face a tough road, which makes effective marketing all the more important. By the end of this article, you’ll know exactly how to take your marketing to the next level without the necessity of the Reverse Funnel System.
For starters, let’s take a look at MLMs.
A Quickly Growing Market

The world of Multilevel Marketing (MLM) is a fiercely competitive field, as well as a difficult one. The reason why people like MLM home-based businesses is that you are in business for yourself but not by yourself. The objective is to build a network through which to move your products. Income comes through these retail sales as well as from sponsoring other distributors.
For a clearer picture of how to best market your MLM or home-based business, take a look at a stellar example of MLM - the Global Resorts Network business.
GRN offers goodies for members as well as distributors. For a one-time fee, members can travel to four and five star resorts of the unheard of price of about $298 a week. In addition, members receive steep discounts on airfares, cruises, and last-minute package deals. As an example of the savings, a family of six can book a vacation at a five star resort in Mazatlan using already-discounted Priceline for about $2369 per week. GRN members can book the same resort for $298 per week.
Benefits do not extend only to members. Affiliate distributors or MLM owners of Global Resorts Network businesses are taking part in the seven trillion dollar a year travel industry. For every membership they sell, they receive $1000 in commissions. In addition, they also receive $1000 if one of the distributors they’re sponsoring makes a sale. This way, Global Resorts Network business owners can doubly expand their income by actively selling as well as with “passive income.”
A great opportunity: But what about the actual “selling” – the job that so many people find so difficult and unappealing and which is time-consuming and ineffective? How can you effectively sell your product, GRN memberships for example, without having to resort to traditional (i.e. ineffective) sales tactics, cold-calling, and lead chasing? This is where your marketing platform or strategy comes in.
Understanding The Popular Reverse Funnel System

A marketing platform that is often associated with Global Resorts Network businesses is the Reverse Funnel System (RFS). This is not the only method of marketing your GRN business, but because it is often mentioned in the same circles, it’s worth mentioning here. The RFS is touted as being a “hands-free online home-based business program” that can earn you thousands of dollars a week. In the program, business owners try to build a network marketing organization and focusing on traffic generation to build income. The RFS takes bits and pieces of the Funded Proposal method (more on this below). Budding entrepreneurs are told that they are “buying into a real business.”
What, however, is this “real business”? It can be difficult to tell. RFS websites sing the praises of the system without ever telling prospective business owners exactly what the product or service actually is. The selling point that sells potential business owners on the RFS is that you can automate everything. It “takes you out of the equation; you can’t mess it up,” according to their campaign. Fully automated and free of the messiness of human interaction, it claims to ensure success.
The RFS is one way of marketing your Global Resorts Network business, but by no means is it the only way. Owning a business is nerve-racking under any circumstances, and it is especially so with MLMs. Remember, only about five percent of all home based businesses make it. Why not give yours the best chance at success?
Make A Better Choice For Your Brand
As the owner of a home-based business, you have to be very aware of marketing. You can do this through methods like RFS, but an alternative that you may find to be more effective for your Global Resorts Network business is self-branding - making your business unique and recognizable amongst all the others out there. As an MLM home-based business owner, you have to ask yourself - why are people going to buy from you as opposed to another site? The simple answer is YOU.
You are, literally, marketing you. This helps you develop a strong customer base founded on trust. You develop and build your brand – your business’s or your personal identity – and get noticed, which is key. Your brand is what separates you from the rest of the pack. This is not a one-size fits all approach, like turn-key businesses can be. This is personal. It is your business.
This is great in theory – and it is a very effective marketing strategy. But what do you do about cash flow as you are building your brand and your customer base, especially when you have a relatively expensive product? As a new or up and coming home-based business owner, advertising and marketing probably take huge chunks of your operating budget. You might even go over budget. The solution? Another form of marketing called Funded Proposals.
Funded Proposals: A Crash Course
It is very difficult to sell a $3000 product to someone with whom you have no relationship. With Funded Proposals, your $3000 product becomes secondary. Your primary product will be an inexpensively produced and distributed product line, such as ebooks, CDs and DVDs, newsletters, or email series. You can find many of these ebooks, CDs, DVDs, newsletters, and e-mail series for free. These, while inexpensive to your customers, provide information that’s important to them. Instead of trying and trying to sell expensive products to make ends meet, you sell little items to generate both income and interest. The people who land on your homepage and opt to sign up for the inexpensive product become your prospects. You can develop a relationship with them and sell them the more expensive actual product down the line.
A funded proposal creates interest in the product and interest in purchasing the product through you and your business – which is where self-branding plays into this effective marketing strategy. You are not cold calling or chasing down false leads to try to get uninterested people to buy. You’ve already got their interest and now you can take your time ensuring you ge the sale.
For GRN, a generic information-related product like an ebook also appeals to the MLM home-based business world as a whole, not just those only interested in GRN. This allows you to expand your customer base and encourage others to become Global Resorts Network business owners, which adds to your passive income.
The funded proposal system works smoothly with self-branding. You develop your customer base; you build relationships; you reap the rewards of your effort. There is no way to take the human element out of any business, let alone one as personally invested as GRN. What makes you stand out from the crowd is what makes shoppers want to buy from you as opposed to others. It is what keeps your customers loyal to you.
Being the owner of your home-based business means you must be actively working to build your business. The worst thing you can do is nothing; you must be proactive. There are many ways to market your business. Whether that means using the RFS platform, self-branding, funded proposals, or other methods, you can give your Global Resorts Network business the best chance of success.
