His latest creation is – The Trump Network… a multilevel marketing opportunity for you and me to market health and wellness products for what most believe to be the usual commissions and downline.
When I first saw this I for sure thought “The Donald” had finally just plain lost it. I was sure it was a joke the thought of it just sounds… wrong.
I mean c’mon, really, MLM? The name Donald Trump is the very definition of big business, why is he lending his name to a system like this? A system that many believe it to be a pyramid scheme. The entire MLM business is a small business opportunity, not something you’d expect Donald Trump to get behind.
Big business is a reality with MLM, of course. I’ve personally met and am friends with some of those MLM monsters (my ABF Kim & her husband are some of them). I can see exactly why the Trump Network exists.
You can find the occasional Trump Network reviews (haters, lovers, and skeptics) as you look around the web, for the most part they just keep repeating the same thing “I can’t believe it”, “Tell me it aint so”; people just can’t believe that Donald Trump’s Trump Network is even real. Trump Network distributors are out there already, of course, promoting, working hard and pushing the Trump Network business opportunity equipped with kick ass products and a slick website at TrumpNetwork, of course. I’d expect nothing less from “the Donald,” and neither should you.
But what I found when I started really paying attention was truly different. The Trump Network business opportunity actually does have something revolutionary in it, which changed my entire view of the Trump Network.
The Real Business Opportunity
What the Trump Network MLM business has that I have never seen before, anywhere, is a home testing kit that tells you EXACTLY what vitamins you really need. It’s not a matter of guesswork anymore. Yes you can stop relying on cravings, old wives tales or on the star alignments or whatever else you can think of. It tells you EXACTLY what you have and what you need. How cool is that? Oh and its in English so people like you and me can actually understand it….
So Donald Trump’s Trump Network has taken the guesswork out of the equation. Instead of trying to figure out what your body needs by self diagnosis or attending medical school – you can rely on state of the art medical technology to tell you exactly what you really need.
And that’s the USP (Unique Selling Proposition) here. It’s what makes the Trump Network business opportunity a serious opportunity, and not just another case of some overhyped one-size-fits-all vitamin pill that turns out to be no better than the multivitamins you get off the grocery store shelf.
Beyond The Product
This is where a lot of people get their panties caught up in a bunch, and give all their attention to the question of how much money they can make and how they’re going to get people to buy the product. Skipping over all the serious business aspects of the Trump Network, distributors occupy all their time and energy with the question of getting customers to buy.
But as customer and distributor, I must tell you that the product is only the beginning. It’s always best to have a great product – and the Trump Network has certainly come up with a fantastic one – but you’re only just beginning to tap into the Trump Network business opportunity if you concentrate on the product. There is another, more important aspect that deserves your focus and attention.
I’m talking about about YOUR business and YOUR branding. The dirty little secret of the Trump Network MLM business, and indeed of any MLM business, is that thousands of people are out there selling the exact same products you are. They’ve all got the same power and trust that Donald Trump’s Trump Network gives you, for the same reason you have it: they’re on the Trump Network team.
So if you want to be truly successful on that team… if you want the recognition, the accolades, and the awards when the Trump Network reviews your results… you have to distinguish yourself from that team, just like you would distinguish yourself with any other business.
You need to put forth the same marketing and self-promotion effort you would if you were starting your own brand-new business, without the benefit of the Trump Network team behind you, or Donald Trump’s Trump Network brand. It is precisely because you get that without building it that you need to push hard on your own branding efforts, so your customers don’t want to buy from other Trump Network distributors – they want to buy from you.
There Aint No Such Thing As A Free Meal Tix
A lot of people will not achieve success with the Trump Network. Complaints will inevitably be made, because people frequently forget that no matter how easy it is to start an MLM business, it is still a business – and it needs all the same things that any other business needs.
The Trump Network business opportunity is a great opportunity. It’s different, it’s new, it’s state of the art and poised to take the world by storm. A lot of people will want to buy these products, and distributors can make a shocking amount of money, particularly in the early days. But just like any small business, novelty isn’t a long-term growth opportunity. Your Trump Network MLM business needs to be treated like a business.
It needs to be marketed. It needs to be advertised. It needs to grow, constantly, to maintain the momentum that leads customers to buy from you – and nobody else – over and over again.
There is a saying in small business: “If it’s not growing, it’s dying.” Too many small business owners learn that the hard way. Don’t be one of them.
Fantabulous Opportunity
There’s nothing better in a partnership – and the Trump Network business opportunity is a partnership, make no mistake about that – than a well-known partner with an established reputation. Donald Trump and the Trump Network certainly qualify on that front.
The danger is only that you’ll rely exclusively on the strength of your partner, without bringing your own strength to the table. By marketing and promoting your own brand, your own unique and personal vision, you build your business.
And when you build your business, you become a well-known partner with an established reputation yourself. Even if your reputation doesn’t rival Donald Trump’s, Trump Network distributors are still better for the Trump Network when they’ve brought their own value to the table.
The fact is that in any MLM business even the Trump Network, there are only so many Trump Network team members available to provide the kind of personal attention and assistance that can drive a company to the top of the heap.
Those team members will put their time and effort into the companies and partners who have already distinguished themselves; it is there, and only there, that a massive multinational business like the Trump Network can get enough value to make the time and effort worthwhile.
So the best strategy you can have, when examining an opportunity like the Trump Network business opportunity, is to consider not only how you can sell your partner’s products… but what value you’re going to bring to the table yourself. How can you be one of the top Trump Network distributors RIGHT NOW, even before the products are available to ship?
That’s the crucial question. It’s all about your business, and your brand, and how well you market yourself – before you even have a product to ship. In the next couple of months, there will be a mad scramble to join Donald Trump’s Trump Network, and only a few people in that race will be in the lead. You can be one of them… if you put in the work, and make yourself a strong partner worthy of the Trump Network team’s attention.
Align yourself with a strong upline, make personal connections, and stop trying to beat the system. This entire business is about personal connections and dedication. In the end it is those connections that will bring you to the top and lacking them may crush you with the blink of an eye.
