Flyers and cards won’t work, unless they are give to your target market. Not sure about your fundraising question, but here are a few things to consider.

(1) The answer is the same for network marketing or any other business. You need to a marketing system. There are many to choose and they work differently (i.e., funded proposal vs reverse funnel), but the idea is the same; target marketing, prequalify prospects automatically. This is usually done via some type of opt-in mechanism (i.e., single, double or even tripple opt-in). Each layer screens out non-prospects or rather lets the non-prospect filter themselves out. Those that are left are pre-qualified prospects. For example; 100 people find your landing page, website or whatever the marketing plan is. 60 opt-in at the first layer to receive whatever that layer offers (usually free information). Maybe 10 continue to the next opt-in layer, which may require the purchase of something such as the marketing system itself, ebook or product (this is usually called a funded proposal system). These 10 folks are your prequalified prospects. What that means is that you haven’t wasted any time talking to the 90 others.

(2) Network marketing is sales and that sales is a process (that takes time), not an event (i.e., just buying). See (1) for new business builders.

(3) You have to find a system or systems that work for you. I use a funded proposal system and augment that income with affiliate marketing. Often, it is a mix of marketing systems that are required to reach your goals.

Above all, the marketing system (or systems) is key.
