#2 spot for an MLM product name. What would you do?

by Brad Gosse

2 years ago I bought into a chocolate MLM product (I know, I know) but I thought I could make it work online (I know, I know).

Anyway we did some serious SEO and we are #2 under the company itself and getting leads which nobody wants.

Any ideas on monetizing the site? Or should I just flip it?

    Hi Brad,

    Not sure if this is relevent to your question, but I have a website that sells high end chocolate and guess what...you can't ship chocolate during the summer months. In fact, the distributors won't even ship it to us.

    It melts on the way...

      I guess the chocolate industry hasn't yet heard about refrigerated trucks or for smaller shipments those cooler packs

        No, actually they have.

        It's a function of cost.

    Brad you asked for an opinion.
    here it is.

    Flip it right now!

    I just HATE MLM.....
    I have experience in it and made much money with it, but in the end it goes wrong somehow.

    Why not cash in now when you have a great spot?
    You have too much to do, too many businesses to run.

    Dump it

    regards,

    Mike

    Find someone who would work the leads and sign them up under you and put their link on the site. Grab a rotator and do this for multiple people depending on how many leads you get.

    Sign up as an affiliate for some leads programs and run some
    banners on it or something.

    Mostly you'll likely get traffic from people already promoting
    the Chocolate mlm... and most of them will be coming to
    your site to try to figure out the secret to getting some
    decent leads.

    ...or flip it, or whatever.
