Deciding to work from home is an easy decision for most people. Given the current state of our economy and the job market there are a lot of people looking for work from home employment opportunities. However, most people do not have the knowledge or skill set to have success in this demanding but rewarding industry.In the next few minutes I will discuss three simple steps, which are used by the elite, that will bring you success in a work from home employment setting. Most home businesses are network marketing or MLM opportunities. There are hundreds of companies from MaryKay to Amway to MonaVie. Almost every company out there is legit and will pay you for the efforts you put in towards building the business.The basic requirements for most network marketing or MLM companies are to sell the product/service and recruit others to do the same. Doing this correctly can create a snowball affect where you can sponsor hundreds of recruits and earn residual commissions on thousands of customers within your downline.This brings up the first step to creating a six and seven figure income with any work from home employment opportunity. Its simple really….you must build a list. Building a list will create an endless supply of prospects to you that will fuel your business. Without a fresh supply of leads your business will not and cannot grow.The second step is to to market to this list. If you want to make any sales or recruit others you must constantly communicate with your list in an effective manner. Traditionally, network marketers utilize phone skills to communicate with their prospects. However, new methods are being developed online that take advantage of email marketing technologies that automate this step. Using the internet to keep in contact and market to your prospects is a great tool to learn and use. There are many work from home employment opportunities but all require this step if you want to succeed.Finally, the last step practiced by the elite and top income earners in the industry is leadership. Being a leader is not easy. You must develop into someone that people look up to and will follow. The use of self-improvement books and educational material is a must. If you asked anyone in the work from home employment industry that makes over six figures they will all tell you that reading is a MUST. Reading leadership and personal development books will become self evident to anyone that you come in contact with. This is the hardest, but most rewarding step in the process to becoming a six or seven figure income earner in the work from home industry.
