Financial Forecasting
Multilevel Marketing Financial Forecasting
A Multilevel Marketing (MLM) business plan depends on both words and numbers. You can’t describe a business in words alone, and the numbers don’t work without the words. Forecasting is more art than science, a combination of good research, logic, simple math, and educated guessing. It’s hard to forecast, but it’s harder to run a business without forecasting.
The financials aren’t as hard as you think, particularly if you have the patience to follow the steps. A good plan includes sales forecast, cash flow, profits, and related financials.
Think of your MLM sales forecast as an educated guess. Forecasting takes good working knowledge of your business, which is more important than advanced degrees or complex mathematics. It really is more art than science. Whether you have business training or not, don’t think you aren’t qualified to forecast. If you can run a business, then you can forecast its sales. Most people can guess their own business’s sales better than any expert device, statistical analysis, or mathematical routine. Experience and passion for your niche count more than any other factor.
Cash is king, and cash flow elements are critical for planning. You don’t want to be one of those MLM businesses that goes broke even while producing profits. The cash plan is vital, the most critical financial analysis in the MLM business plan. It has to manage the difference between cash and profits. The cash flow stands between income statement and balance sheet, and brings the two together. It is the forecast of the inflow and outflow of cash on a weekly and monthly basis.
Profits are what is left over after you start with sales, then subtract cost of sales, expenses and taxes. The income statement is the same as the Profit and Loss statement. They are also called ‘pro forma income’ or ‘pro forma profit and loss.’ The pro forma income is the same as a standard income statement except that the standard income statement shows real results form the past, while a pro forma statement is projecting the future.
The resulting related financials include balance sheet, business ratios, profitability ratios, activity ratios, debt ratios, liquidity ratios, and break-even analysis. With your financials completed, you can turn to strategy and tactics.

Marketing Plan Helps You Succeed
Your personal marketing plan outlines what you must do to successfully achieve your goals.
All successful real estate agents follow personal marketing plan. Everything they do focuses on achieving their goals.
A Goal Is A Dream That’s Been Written Down
Most people can dream. Unfortunately many of these people cannot convert their dreams to goals.
If you have trouble setting goals, the URL listed at the end of this article offers 2 resources that will guide you though setting goals that are right for you.
The best goal-setting starts with identifying what you believe in and what you value. Once you have identified these critical elements, you will be well prepared to develop goals that reflect your values.
Real Estate Agents Work Very Hard
Selling real estate is hard work. And it’s necessary to work long hours. Most high producers devote more than 60 or more hours each week to their work.
Unfortunately, simply working long hours does not always lead to success. It’s fairly simple to keep busy by doing random things like paper-shuffling, chatting with others, surfing the ‘net.
A personal marketing plan, helps keep you focused on doing what is necessary to achieve the results you seek. Instead of simply trying to work harder, the plan will help you work smarter. It will also help you manage your time more effectively.
What Results Do You Desire?
Crises are inevitable. Despite the best of intentions and efforts, they can’t be prevented.
Sound planning usually provides crisis management that tends to be more productive than trying to make the problem simply go away.
The best solution to any problem is the one that helps achieve goals as set out in the plan.
By looking only a solution to a problem, time and attention are taken away from productive business growth activities. With the added time and attention, problems often become bigger than than they really are.
However, a better approach is to try to resolve problems in a way that helps achieve long terms goals. This means that problems are solved as part of moving toward goals. As regards problems, ask yourself what resolution you desire that will help you achieve your long term goals.
Achieve Your Goals to Live What You Value
Successful people set goals that reflect the things they value most. As a result, when they bring about their desired results, they are living their values.
Maybe it’s time to reassess how well you are living your values. Perhaps your values have changed and you need new goals to reflect these changes. Setting new goals is much the same as your initial goals.
For many people, including real estate agents, goal-setting can be challenging.
Maybe you are not sure about what you now want to achieve. Or perhaps you have been really busy and haven’t had the luxury of thinking about your goals.
Whatever your reason is, it’s not important.
What is important matter is that you figure out the results that you want to achieve. And one you know this, develop a personal marketing plan that will help you bring about these results. That’s what success is all about.

The Home Improvement Marketing Plan
Marketing in this industry means finding ways to get people to respond, creating opportunities to make presentations and ultimately to sell a fair percentage of the respondents. A large successful home improvement company is usually a “lead factory”.
Leads, from advertising and those self-developed through canvassing or referrals are the lifeblood of a business. The successful home improvement retailer uses a variety of methods to consistently keep the lead pipeline full. The plan to do so is frequently regulated by the territory, economy, average contract size, the weather and even the news of the day. The marketing plan includes a budget. How much will be spent and where. It also includes projections to ensure sufficient leads to provide prospects for the salespeople. A key is the number of leads which are necessary to produce net good business. In a plan where the salesman sells a minimum of 2 contracts per week averaging 3 presentations to 1 sale and where there is a 30% of fall off from leads issued to actual presentations, the plan calls for 9 to 10 leads per salesperson per week. Since an issued lead many cost from $250 to $300, remaining within budget may require salespeople to self generate a percentage of their own leads.
How do you know the plan is working? Each week measure the number of leads which have been generated, those which are confirmed, presented to and sold, less those which cancel or are credit rejected. When some aspect of the plan is not working, adjust rapidly – eliminate low producing methods, reduce regularity, intensify methods to produce less costly leads (canvass, referral plan). Unsold leads or those not receiving presentations, have to be rehashed. Experimentation with new methods of lead getting requires concentration and control.
Ultimately, the measure of a successful marketing plan is the amount of net business (ready for installation) you have sold, measured against the cost of procuring the leads to sell that volume of business. If the cost of your marketing program when measured against this net business exceeds your budget – then the plan needs modification.
