It is undoubtedly one of my favorite marketing systems for home business owners and sales professionals (real estate, insurance, job recruiters). I have sites, profiles, blogs, etc with information about this portal and all of the tools it has to build your business. The reason it simple … Orange Leads rocks. It has been an excellent resource since it launched in October 2008 and Orange Leads works well for people that take the time to learn how to use it.

What is Orange Leads?

In it’s most basic form, Orange Leads is a free leads and online advertising resource. A more elaborate description of Orange Leads would include “virtual office” – “online recruiting system” – “business network” – “work at home opportunity” – “call center” – “marketing tools” and so on. There are many supportive features for opportunists that choose to delve in deeper than just getting “free leads” and “free advertising”.

It is a multi-faceted business network, therefore “the sky is the limit” for those who take the time to learn how to apply the features of Orange Leads to their business needs.

This particular one, Orange Leads, has become an online advertising / recruiting / networking system that is difficult to put into words because it is so robust. Regardless, I will try to make the benefits of Orange Leads clear for you in this one blog post. :)

There are 2 major functions that can help you whether you know how to use the website at all.

1. Get the free Orange Leads banner (like the one above) from the Affiliate links page of your account, and distribute it all over the Internet. Post your banner (or cloaked affiliate link) on Classifieds sites, Social Networks, Groups, Forms, Twitter, etc — you will develop a personal list by doing this.
2. You need to set up your account correctly. Go to the yellow Site Navigation menu and click the “Edit My Orange Leads Account”. Complete this section from top to bottom NO MATTER WHAT. If you are not a member of Alert Pay or a specific network that he has listed, save the changes you made in your Orange Leads account and GO TO THOSE RESOURCES and set them up correctly. Come back to your Orange Leads account to add the information and move on to the next. MAKE SURE to save every so often, so that your changes do not “time out”. Make sure to complete the About Me, and other more detailed sections, as completely as possible. These are your home pages / profile pages – sales pages per say – do you best and take your time to complete everything in your “Edit My Orange Leads Account” area. If you do this, it does not matter how often you use Orangeleads, you will start generating the exposure that the website is intended to provide for you. Of course, IT IS BEST to login to Orange Leads each day.

Check our the Orange Leads Comparison Chart to determine whether you should join as a free or paid member. I will post more tips as time permits, but the fact of the matter is that I am approaching 4000 in my downline just because I took that free Orange Leads banner and placed it everywhere over the course of a month. I then made sure my account was set up correctly. I marketed it a little bit each week.

As my internal networking was developing, I started “positioning” for additional marketing efforts, such as blogs, groups and helping my referrals do the same. I was able to market other programs and take trainings outside of the environment while my Orange Leads was growing. My Orangeleads continues to grow whether I am there or not, and there are plenty of helpful member to assist my new referrals whether I am available at a particular time or not.

Now, of course, there is much more to share about the amazing business network. I spent time posting ads, hanging out in the public chat room and other things that I will share later. This helped me make money with other programs that I wanted to market at Orange Leads.

Look, whether you call it “list building”, “affiliate marketing” or “Internet marketing”, online business is NOT for the LAZY (this is one of the worst 4 letter words). You cannot be an Orange Leader or own a business and let yourself become lazy. Now, if you are a bit shy or not confident about selling, Orange Leads, there is a recruiting page for just about every phobia we have in learning how to “sell” ourselves and network for business. It is up to you which will work best for where you are in the marketing process.

If you cannot market a banner that helps people get to the network for free leads, free advertising, free networking, free text ads, free link cloaker or free Twitter tool, OR even invite them to another program where you offer an incentive prior to presenting your business infomation …

If you are not going to take the time to make sure that your account is set up correctly and learn how to use ANY PROGRAM … It is going to be a long, long, long time before you start seeing the results that you expect to obtain. In other words, you could go broke before you make any money. If anything, you can use Orange Leads to help you accomplish this important facet of developing an online business and good Internet Marketing strategies.
