Do You Have A Plan B?

Do you feel this black cloud over the United States economy? If you listen to the main stream media the economy is on the way back and coming out of a recession. Even though unemployment is not getting better and is hovering around 9%, the real estate market is floundering and food and gas prices soaring. If this is really true it sure doesn't feel like things are getting better.

Do you have to work twice as hard to make the same money you used to? Do you have a second job? I guess the question is do you have a job let alone a second job? If you could find a job or even a second job what will you be making for the time invested? Minimum wage? Straight commission? If you are not making enough money to live then the question is, "Do you have a Plan B?"

Let me tell you what wealthy people do that is not publicized very often. What the wealthy people do is to leverage their time. They look for ways to make residual income and turn it into passive income. If you think about stocks, real estate or writing a book and getting money every month from rents or royalties then that is one form of residual income. There is another way to leverage your time without having to buy real estate or write a book and that is called Network Marketing. Two words that most people cringe when they hear.

The people who cringe when they hear Network Marketing are the same people that either don't understand the industry or tried it, but were not successful. You have to look at why someone wasn't successful in this industry because there are many people who are making money. If you have been in Network Marketing and you haven't made any money I would ask one question, " Did you quit"? So many people get in with the highest hopes of making $50,000 a month and after talking to 5 or 10 people that give a negative reaction they quit and always say, "This doesn't work". This tells me a couple of things about that person. They don't have belief in the products and they lack belief in themselves.

For the people that are open to the industry and don't know much about it, I would suggest you find the passion for something first instead of trying to make money in something you don't believe in. Secondly, find a company that has a track record with an experienced management team. So often people get into a company blindly without looking at the executives leading the company. I can't stress this enough because you want a team of people who have done it before and know how to grow the company even in a down economy. Thirdly, you want to find a culture that you can relate to. When you find that culture you will know it as it will resonate throughout your entire body. You'll know you are there because of the vibrations you are feeling inside. Internally you will say, "This feels right". You must also be a product of the product. I often ask a life insurance agent if they have life insurance. A lot of times they don't, so how can you share something that you're passionate about if you don't believe in the product enough to take it or buy it?

Network Marketing is an excellent Plan B if you have the desire to put in the effort needed to succeed. Nothing happens overnight in any industry that you venture into, but if you give this enough time the rewards will be worth it. You can either listen to people tell you this doesn't work or you can do your own research and make your own decision. Either way you better start working on Plan B!
