You must learn what\u2019s new, what\u2019s working, what has now become outdated and where the future of multi level marketing is headed. It\u2019s good to learn from <a href=\"https:\/\/empowernetwork.com\/courses\/team-building-formula\/\">network marketing<\/a> books that have everything laid out for you.<\/p>\n<p>You have to stay tuned in to the latest tools in order to stay at the top of your game. The best way to learn what works in network marketing and what doesn\u2019t is to go straight to the professionals \u2013 those who can show you how to do what they\u2019ve done. Some do this in webinars, and some write network marketing books.<\/p>\n<p>There are plenty of network marketing books, e-books and audio books that you can buy to give you tricks and tips on how to become a successful marketer, but you want to learn from those who know it best. The following list of books are brought to you by experts in the field.<\/p>\n<p>Here Are My Top 10 Network Marketing Books (they may not be yours):<\/p>\n<p>1. Networking is a Contact Sport: How Staying Connected and Serving Others Will Help You Grow Your Business, Expand Your Influence \u2014 or Even Land Your Next Job by Joe Sweeney and Mike Yorkey. Joe Sweeney understands the art of persuasion and he gets that network marketing is about seeing the needs people have and doing your best to meet those needs in a network society. This is one of the greatest network marketing books, as Joe tells many great stories about how he successfully connected with star athletes and captains of industry by using a simple philosophy: <em><em><strong>Networking is about giving, not getting<\/strong><\/em><\/em><\/p>\n<p>2. The Business of the 21st Century by Robert T. Kiyosaki, John Fleming, and Kim Kiyosaki. This is one of my favourite network marketing books. Having successfully seen more than one business reach the multimillion dollar mark, Kiyosaki knows what he\u2019s talking about. With his practical advice, he can show even the least experienced network marketer how to build a successful business. Here is a quote from his website: \u201cLike billionaires Donald Trump and Warren Buffet, Robert is sold on network marketing. He wants to share his insights with you on why he believes it is the business model of the 21st century\u2014and why now is the perfect time to take advantage of the opportunities it offers!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>3. Inbound Marketing: Get Found Using Google, Social Media, and Blogs (New Rules Social Media Series) by Brian Halligan, Dharmesh Shah, and David Meerman Scott. In order to thrive in an online world, especially in network marketing, people have to know your business exists. This is one of the network marketing books (well it\u2019s not really, but very relevant) that will show you the importance of using an online strategy to reach your goals. \u201cIf you\u2019ve been looking for a trustworthy primer on getting found online, here\u2019s a great place to start. Buy one for your clueless colleague too.\u201d\u2014Seth Godin<\/p>\n<p>4. The Zen of Social Media Marketing: An Easier Way to Build Credibility, Generate Buzz, and Increase Revenue by Shama Kabani and Chris Brogan. \u201cIt\u2019s time to take action. Your customers (and perhaps your competitors) already rely on social media when they make buying decisions of all kinds. Waiting is a risk most businesses can\u2019t afford \u2013 but doing it wrong is an even bigger risk.\u201d One of the 7 reasons to get this book.<\/p>\n<p>5. The System: The 3 Steps to Building a Large, Successful Network Marketing Organization by Don &amp; Nancy Failla. This should be one of the required network marketing books that every new recruit is given. Even though this is one of the network marketing books written in the 1980s, the guiding principles of success in this business still hold as true now as they did when the book was written. Don &amp; Nancy\u2019s system has built their organization to over 200,000 and it\u2019s still growing.<\/p>\n<p>6. Your First Year in Network Marketing: Overcome Your Fears, Experience Success, and Achieve Your Dreams! by Mark Yarnell and Rene Reid Yarnell. Mark shares his experiences about what worked for him and what didn\u2019t. In case you don\u2019t already know this, Mark Yarnell is a member of the Network Marketing Hall of Fame. At one time, he had more than <strong>700,000 downline distributors<\/strong> in his Nu Skin business. I think this qualifies him to write on of the leading network marketing books of the last decade.<\/p>\n<p>7. Trust Agents: Using the Web to Build Influence, Improve Reputation, and Earn Trust by Chris Brogan and Julien Smith \u2013 This is not classified as one of the network marketing books, but this book focus on showing individuals have to build networks of influence through social media tools. It explores the concept of using trust as a means for creating positive online reputations. The book also includes actionable steps and case studies that showcase the positive impact social media can have on your business. For more great information from the authors be sure to check out Chris Brogan\u2019s and Julien Smiths\u2019 blog.<\/p>\n<p>8. Be a Recruiting Superstar: The Fast Track to Network Marketing Millions by Mary Christensen. From creating a list of top prospects to overcoming objections and closing with confidence you will learn exactly what to do and say to turn prospects into recruits. Mary Christensen has written many network marketing books that all have value.<\/p>\n<p>9. Endless Referrals, Third Edition by Bob Burg. Not intended to be in the network marketing books section, this is, in my opinion, the definitive guide to turning casual contacts into solid sales opportunities which teaches marketers the importance of building relationships versus pressing in for a quick sale.<\/p>\n<p>10. Guerrilla Social Media Marketing: 100+ Weapons to Grow Your Online Influence, Attract Customers, and Drive Profits by Jay Conrad Levinson and Shane Gibson. Is this one of the network marketing books I like? Yup \u2013 but again, it\u2019s not about MLM! Guerrilla Marketing is about achieving conventional goals by unconventional means. Instead of using large investments of money or time the guerrilla marketer uses imagination, creativity, knowledge and community to get results.<\/p>\n<div>Do you see that most of the network marketing books on my list are actually just pure MARKETING books? This is because the network marketing business, is all about MARKETING! Whether you read network marketing books, or listen to network marketing books on your iPod (like I do), you need to stay educated and motivated. I listen to Anthony Robbins in the car. Right now I\u2019m doing the Get The Edge program. I find that listening to positive, motivating, inspirational, and content that allows me to improve from a personal level, I can attack my business with vitality and an unwavering commitment.<\/div>\n<h2><strong><span>I challenge you to do the same.<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>So there are my Top 10 Network Marketing Books.
