If you are looking for a network marketing company that offers a unique service to it’s customers then you might want to take a look at Pre-paid legal services. Here’s why…Pre-Paid legal services offers legal expense plans that give middle and lower class Americans access to the justice system. If you look at the legal system today you will find a broken system. There are millions of lawsuits filed everyday from divorce, child custody, civil suits, criminal suits, etc. There is also a huge problem with identity theft nowadays. It is very easy for someone to commit drivers lisence fraud, social security fraud, and credit fraud.Pre-Paid Legal Services is a 35 yr. old New York Stock Exchange company and was founded by Harland Stonecipher. They offer a wide range of legal plans. The most common plan is the expanded family plan. The plan covers you and your entire household for $26.00 a month. The expanded family plan is broken down into five titles of coverage. 1) Preventive Legal Services2) Motor Vehicle Legal Expenses3) Trial Defense Services4) IRS audit services5) Preferred Member Discount on any additional legal matter.
A special membership called the Legal shield is added on with the expanded family plan. It allows a customer to contact their attorney immediately if they are arrested or detained. It doesn’t matter if they are detained at two in the morning, they can contact their attorney.
As far as a network marketing opportunity you have a couple of things going for you. The legal industry is hard to get access to, most people can’t afford the high price of attorneys. Also, a majority of legal problems can be prevented if people have access to legal advise. Another advantage to their opportunity is it’s highly affordable for the average consumer. Your talking about a $26.00 or less monthly expense. Their memberships are not a hard sale to make if explained right.I wouldn’t do this review justice if I didn’t mention the other popular membership that Pre-paid legal offers. It is the Identity theft shield. Pre-paid legal partnered with Kroll Background of America a number of years ago. Kroll specializes in Identity theft and has allowed prepaid legal associates to market the Identity theft shield service. For $12.95 a month or $9.95 a month added on to a Pre-paid legal membership customers have complete protection in regards to Identity theft. The service provides continuous credit monitoring and credit restoration. If a customers Identity is compromised they will be provided with an expert that will go to work to restore their name. The service provides 600 hours of the experts time with no additional charge.Today, we know that Identity theft is one of the fastest growing white collar crimes in America. We also know that most people use credit or debit cards to pay for purchases. This provides a huge opportunity for associates to cash in and help consumers.The compensation plan that Pre-paid legal offers is very generous. They pay out 1 yr advanced commissions on all their plans. For example, if an associate sells the expanded family plan for $26.00 + the Identity theft shield for $9.95 an associate will earn starting out $36.00 and it goes all the way to over $250.00 for marketing a $35.95 membership. Obviously I can’t explain the entire comp plan in detail in this article, that’s why I placed a link at the end for more information.In closing, I want to mention the last benefit of the network marketing opportunity that Pre-paid legal provides and that is they PAY DAILY. When a membership is process they pay their associates the next business day.I attempted to write a short overview of Pre-paid legal but now I want to talk specifically to the home business opportunity seeker. If you desire to learn how to be an ENTREPRENEUR and how to MARKET the Pre-paid legal service plans the easy way then you need to partner with leaders who can teach you how.

Top 10 Marketing Concepts for Small Business
Category Small Business
Over the past decade more and more people are getting fired, getting downsized, or getting fed up with their corporate jobs and embark on the journey as a small business owner. Unfortunately, most of the new small business owners fail to consider their marketing plans or strategy. There are many marketing concepts for small business marketing to consider and plan for, but here is our list of Top 10 Marketing Concepts For Small Business Marketing.
Marketing Concept # 1: Consistency
Consistency is the number one marketing concept for small business marketing only because it is left out of marketing concepts for so many businesses. I have worked with a long list of clients, big and small, that are extremely inconsistent in all areas of their marketing. Consistency helps lower the cost of marketing and increase the effectiveness of branding.
Marketing Concept # 2: Planning
Once small business owners decide to be consistent with their marketing, planning is the next major concept to engage. Planning is the most vital part of small business marketing or any level of marketing, for that matter, and so many owners, marketing managers, and even CMOs plan poorly. Put the time into planning your marketing strategy, budget, and other concepts presented here to ensure success.
Marketing Concept # 3: Strategy
Strategy immediately follows planning because your strategy is the foundation for the rest of your marketing activities. In the process of planning, you must develop your strategy: who you will target, how you will target them, and how will you keep them as a customer.
Marketing Concept # 4: Target Market
Target market is also another key concept for small business marketing. Defining exactly who you are targeting allows small business owners to focus on specific customers and reduce marketing waste. A well-defined target market will make every other marketing concept so much easier to implement successfully.
Marketing Concept # 5: Budget
Although it is listed at number 5, budgeting is important throughout the entire process. Creating a marketing budget is usually the hardest and most inaccurate part of small business marketing. Most small businesses owners lack a great deal of experience in marketing, so their budgets usually end up skewed. The most important part of this marketing concept is to actually establish a marketing budget. From there, you can worry about how to distribute your available funds.
Marketing Concept # 6: Marketing Mix
The marketing mix is usually defined as product, pricing, place, and promotion. As a small business owner, you must specifically decide on your products (or services), the appropriate pricing, where and how you will distribute your products, and how will you let everyone know about you and your products.
Marketing Concept # 7: Website
In today’s market, a business of any size must have a website. I hate when I see businesses that have a one page website with out-dated information. Customers, be it businesses or consumers, will search the web over 60% of the time before making any purchasing decisions. This marketing concept contains a slew of additional components, but you must at least develop a small web presence of some kind and keep it updated.
Marketing Concept # 8: Branding
Many small businesses owners also neglect this concept. Small business marketing must focus on this marketing concept just as much as large corporations do. Branding consists of the pictures, logo, design scheme, layout, make up, and image of your products and even your company. Branding is how your customers perceive (please place a lot of emphasis on that word!) your products and company. Make sure to pay special attention to what kind of brand you are building through each step of your planning and implementation.
Marketing Concept # 9: Promotion and Advertising
Promotion and advertising is a very complex marketing concept, but must be considered for any type of business and its products and services. Once you engage the previous 8 marketing concepts, you must finally let your target market know about you and your products. Proper promotion and advertising will result in effective brand recognition, and, ultimately, increased sales.
Marketing Concept # 10: Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
The concept of customer relationship management has become a huge industry in the marketing world. There are many types of software and services offered to help businesses of any size handle their customer relationship management. Since there is so much available, usually for a large sum of money, small business owners usually look at this concept as something they are not big enough for or have enough money to implement. Don’t be fooled by the massive industry that has evolved from this concept. Maintaining proper customer relationship management is essential to creating loyal and consistent customers.
This list of marketing concepts should be examined, researched, planned, and implemented, especially by small businesses, in order to be successful. Also, your marketing doesn’t stop here. Each business is unique and will have additional components that must be considered, but this list will jump-start any marketing plan.

How much should I spend on marketing?
This is a common question that marketing consultants gets asked on a regular basis.
The simple answer is that there is no hard a fast rule – it depends on the competitive environment, the stage of business development, the product or service category and the balance of advertising designed to promote the brand vs advertising designed to generate a specific response.
As a result of these factors, marketing budgets are best set based on careful analysis of a number of factors as part of a Marketing Strategy not via the often used % of sales method.
If you are looking to develop a deeper understanding of your marketing budget then there are two good places to start.
Brand awareness is a direct product of the Marketing Strategy – by identifying the key target markets and having an understanding of the competitive environment it is possible to establish a picture of the level and types of “brand” advertising required to generate awareness of the brand for new customers and reinforce the message with existing consumers.
Planning the elements of the campaign designed to generate a specific response is more closely aligned with the sales budgets and requires analysis of the response and conversion rates you are achieving from various forms of advertising.
Using response and conversion rates as a starting point allows MJH Group to determine the expected result for a particular level of spend in a particular area and plan the marketing strategy accordingly. This is correlated to the sales budget to help plan the necessary mix of advertising required to drive the response to deliver the sales result.
