What is the Best Network Marketing Software?

August 17, 2010  

The best network marketing software would include several functions.  Ideally they would all be interconnected for the most efficient use.  It would include a contact management system as well as an autoresponder and POP3 account as well as live, interactive communications ability. 

While you can easily find all of these components separately, you really have to search to find a system that includes at least most of them together.  The idea here would be to have a ‘relational database’.  A relational database is one that has all the information in one place so that there is no duplication necessary.  The same information can be used in multiple ways and always accessed from one place only.

For example you should only have the name and contact information in one time. This might include name, email and phone – much like a Rolodex. The autoresponder would access the email address in order to send pre-written messages.  This is set up on a schedule that is tied to a series of messages that are sent automatically – typically daily or weekly.

The client could then respond back to you via email if a POP3 account was attached to this. Autoresponders usually only send mail and have no ability to receive mail other than to set up an ‘email alias’ or a mail forwarder that is used as the ‘return’ or ‘reply to’ address on your outgoing message.  In this case, you would receive your mail in your regular email account – apart from your database.

The best network marketing software would include a contact management system, so that on the client’s record you would have a place to record your contact dates, comments about your conversation and future appointments with the client. You may be able to see why having everything in one place would be ideal, as there are quite a few details that would always be linked back to the client’s record and plenty of room for confusion if not.

Other functions that would be part of the best network marketing software but that doesn’t necessarily need to be interconnected to your database would be an interactive communication environment. Ideally a web conference room or VoIP group voice/text chat could serve this purpose.
