GPT Get Paid Today - Mark Taylor explains the business model changing the game of network marketing.

The GPT business model is the answer to the biggest challenges facing network marketers/ MLM distributors today. With the increasing use of the internet information has never been easier to find! Just bring up any search engine today and do a search for any business opportunity by name and you will bring up hundreds of other competing opportunities.

Making money online has become hugely popular and outside of the obvious casino secrets and other dubious business systems there lies an underbelly of multi level marketers looking to promote their brand, their products, their services and their opportunity online. In the mix are another rich seam of information marketers looking to serve you information that will help you in your journey, all good stuff.

Before I explain the GPT business model let's examine the biggest obstacles facing Network Marketers today:-

  • Very High Attrition Rate 
  • Small Commisions
  •  Other Opportunities

Very High Attrition Rate

The author believes that it all starts in the beginning, an obvious statement, but let me explain. When network marketers start out many, if not most, will start to build a list of "warm market" contacts,  consisting of friends, family and work colleagues. Once this list has been approached ( usually badly) the distributor will go on to the system favoured by their upline or sponsor. Most will have a 'Rods In The Pond' type training promoting techniques and strategy's to generate leads for their opportunity. Many of these techniques will be offline but increasingly network marketers are turning to the internet.

Now it's a common view born from statistics that 97% will fail in their opportunity. Theres no argument that the failure rate is huge!. The truth is that many of those prospects were never really looking to be in business in the first place. They may have been sold a get rich mentality that feeds their mistaken belief that riches can come quickly and easily  by joining a network marketing opportunity. As soon as the going gets tough they quit or they start looking for an easier. bigger and better opportunity, either way ultimately they are gone!.

The constant attrition of people in a network marketing business means that you as a distributor will be constantly placing people into your pipeline always looking to put more in than leave, if more leave than you put in then your business is shrinking, full stop.

Small Commissions

The promise of royalty bonus's for many is just that a promise! Most will never actually experience a true royalty based income that is walk away!. ie the money keeps on rolling in year after year. The facts are that most commision cheques are very small and the market tends to have a fake it till you make it mentality. Most distributors will work their business or opportunity part time and if they have a strong retail income it will just about cover the expense's incurred running their business. Most do not! and actually support their mlm business from their full time job!.

It takes a strong vision of future success to drive a distributor through this phase of their business growth, most will quit at this point.

Other Opportunities

It's only natural for a distributor, once they have been sold the concept of networking, to look for tools, training and coaching to help them build their opportunity. The internet has become the worlds number 1 depository of information, and as more network marketers seek out information they quickly realise that they are not alone!

Do a quick search on any major search engine for any business opportunity and you will find millions of results. Adverts competing for space, new opportunities, free information, reports etc. A minefield of information that can inform and add value just as it can misguide and detract from your business efforts.

Most network marketers have been in more than one opportunity, and most will be in another at some time in the future. Fact!

G.P.T. (Get Paid Today)

GPT is not a business opportunity, it's a business model. It centre's around top tier opportunities typically costing between £1000 and £2000 to get started. The commission made on a top tier opportunity is around 50% resulting in a much larger commission per customer in this example £1000.

Network marketers would need to build a large downline of around 100 to 300 (active) distributors in order to generate a sizeable income of £5000 per month. This would take around 2 to 5 years in a good program. With GPT the same income would be generated for only 5 sales.

Top Tier Opportunities attract Top Tier Prospects!. This is the authors favourite concept in the GPT model. A higher financial threshhold to getting involved separates the wheat from the chaff. Tyre kickers and time wasters run a mile when they realise they have to make a financial committment. This for me anyway is a great thing, ask any successfull network marketer what their number 1 waste of time is and they will tell you it was working with the wrong people!.

Serious Money attracts serious people, and for those looking to make £50K+ within 12 months it really is the only serious honest sell. For those who want the big MLM business,  who are struggling with attrition, increasing costs, disappearing downline the GPT model can be used to put money into your pocket in weeks and months as opposed to years. That money can be used to increase advertising, support other business ventures or invested into real fixed assets like property.
