GDI Bonuses: The Leaderboard

The Leaderboard is where you can find some of GDI’s top performers each week. Those who make the Leader Board get recognition, credibility and of course a bonus. Do you want to make the Leader Board? Here’s how:

Leaderboards

The Leaderboards are made up of people in the lead for the current weekly bonus contest. For every five new accounts signed up by an affiliate during the indicated date range, these leaders potentially receive $100. But, this is to be used as a guide to see how top affiliates are performing. The amounts shown are not guaranteed. These Leaderboards are updated in real-time, so expect to see the amounts change. Only new signups that convert to paying customers on our first charge attempt on their 7th day when their free trial ends will be counted towards bonuses.

What this all means is that for you to make the Leaderboard and collect your bonus, you must sign up five new accounts during a one week date range. These accounts must convert to paying customers. For each five new accounts you sign up, you are eligible for a $100 bonus.

Getting Ahead as a New Affiliate Marketer

In many industries, the most successful people have been around for quite some time and for good reason. When one finds success in a business, it’s smart to stay and keep growing that success, which in turn attracts more business. This can be discouraging for anyone just starting out. Luckily as a GDI affiliate you don’t have to be the most experienced or with GDI the longest to build Income for Life. Take advantage of what you do well, whether it’s building relationships or building websites, to develop your business quickly as a beginner.

You Don’t Have to Be an Expert

There are many things you will learn about network marketing just from experience, so don’t worry about being an expert on everything right away. Instead take the time to focus on the relationships you build. Invest just as much time into your team and potential team members as you do into learning about GDI. Building and investing in relationships as you build your network with help people to feel comfortable with you and trust you. People will be more likely to do business with someone they trust.

Build Your Site

If you’re not the best with building personal relationships, you can still succeed with GDI. A well designed, functional site can make up for any issues you have relating to people. Let your site do the talking for you when it comes to building your team.

Take the time to create the best site possible based on your skill level. If you’ve never created any sort of site before, try out the GDI SiteBuilder. It offers great looking templates and can help you get a site up in no time. If you want a more customizable look, try our WordPress plugin. Though WordPress is most often used for blog you can build out your WordPress site to be just about anything you want depending on the theme, widgets and layout you use. We also offer hosting, giving you the ultimate power over what kind of site you create.

Create a Community

Don’t make communication a one way street. Encourage your downline to reach out to you and to each other. Opening these lines of communication can help people feel like they belong to a community, making them less likely to just walk away. Establish relationships across your team by creating groups on Facebook, and Google+ or even having a weekly email conversation or team webinar with everyone. Creating a community keeps people involved and investing in building Income for Life for all involved.

Longevity Builds Income for Life

Longevity means long life. In network marketing it refers to the long life of your team members. Team members who stay with you for a long time help you to Build Income for Life. While increasing sign ups and building your downline is important, it is equally important to keep those already on your team involved and successful. In many cases it is easier to keep someone on your team rather than to find a new sign up for your team. Your long lasting team members will also have a better understanding of GDI and a larger network. Here a three ways to work towards that long life with your team members.

Keep Lines of Communication Open

Getting new sign ups can be hard work, but this is no reason to ignore your current downline members. Be sure current members know how to contact you. When you get a new email address or phone number, keep them in the loop with this information. If you haven’t heard from a team member in a while and they seem inactive, it’s up to you to reach out to them. It is just as important to occasionally reach out to team members as it is for them to be able to contact you.

Get Inventive

The world of network marketing is always changing, so its important to change accordingly. If you and your team members have been with GDI for a long period of time, it’s important not to get into a rut. Doing the same things over and over again for marketing will get you the same results, if not diminishing results. To get bigger returns for you and your team, get inventive with marketing and team building strategies. Sharing these ideas with your team will keep them engaged and active.

Work Together

Working together combines the first two tips. What better way to get creative and keep in contact with your team members than working together. Your downline should feel like they are a part of a team, not just a cog in a wheel. Working together keeps them interested in GDI and their team and helps to give them more power over their success, success that will help to keep them on board.
