Let's Be Honest

So you're tired and fed up and you finally break down and take a look at network marketing. You think it is a good business model and you decide to give it a try. I'm not sure what the person who spoke to you about this industry told you, but there are some things that must be said.

I believe you must come into this business with an open mind and an understanding that this is not a get rich quick scheme. No matter what anyone tells you, getting rich fast is not the norm in this industry. The people who do make money quickly are people that are already in network marketing and have a team in place. However, the majority of people that get into this business work very hard  to get to a pay level that we all hear about and those are the people who never give up.

This is a simple business to get into, but a hard one in that it takes time to build. I love these posts on facebook and other social media when they tell you,  It's the fastest growing income producing opportunity ever! You won't have to talk to anyone and you can make a lot of money." If you see any of these posts or ads run for the hills. The truth is there is nothing on planet earth that is going to build your business for you. There are Internet gurus out there who will tell you they have created the easiest system in the world, but they don't have a huge track record to back it up. I'm sure people have success with them, but it costs time and money.

The "old style" of network marketing will never go out of style. That includes face to face meetings, 3-way calls, events and the one on one presentations. Internet marketing is one piece of the puzzle, but not the whole puzzle. There still needs to be a mix of many different marketing techniques to build your business, but one thing is for sure...THIS IS NOT A GET RICH QUICK BUSINESS. If you know that going into the business then you won't be disappointed when your not rich after one month.

I'm curious, if you invested $250,000 in your own business and weren't profitable for three years, what you would do? Would you give up? What if you invested $40 dollars in a business and weren't profitable for three years? Would you give up on that business because you don't have a lot invested? Each business provides the same opportunity for wealth, but because you invested a quarter of a million dollars I would say you have a lot more to lose if you quit. The good news is that for a $40.00 investment you could make a serious 6 figure income and possibly a 7 figure income.

That is only possible if you leverage your time, but most people tell me that they have no time to do another business. The reason you have no time is because you are not LEVERAGING your time. If you took that minimal investment and treated it like it was $250.000, you would have all the time in the world!! Contact me to learn how to leverage your time.
