Throughout the last 70 years as America has grown so has the methods of distribution for all goods and services. I'm too young to remember the ice man and the milk man coming to my house to deliver our goods. I do however, remember my doctor making a house call when I was about 8 years old. That was in 1965 and the memory of that is still pretty vivid.
Over the years there have been many gains in the methods of distribution such as mega warehouses strategically placed throughout the US. Years ago companies like Sears had a huge business with their catalogues and many retailers followed their lead. How about the auto industry? When you walked into a car dealership you usually didn't drive a new car off the lot because you ordered it the way you wanted it. That's right, you would design the car you wanted and then the manufacturer would build it to your specifications.
All of these methods have gone through many years of redevelopment and now you find that the Internet has become an efficient way of distribution. The other way of distribution is through word of mouth. How many times have you heard the phrase, "Word of mouth is the most powerful form of advertising." The reason is because it is. When you tell a friend about a great movie you just saw that is powerful because you have credibility with your friend. So now the friend goes to see the movie and loves it and the next thing they do is to tell one of their friends. Now the distributor of that movie loves word of mouth because they don't have to pay anyone for referring the movie to anyone. The downside for the distributor is that they spend millions on advertising and unless they get good reviews no word of mouth on the planet is going to help them. So what just happened? They spent millions on advertising and did very little at the box office because the movie wasn't very good.
If word of mouth is the most powerful form of advertising then why does the Network Marketing industry get such a bad rap? After all, the company doesn't have to spend millions on advertising to people that have no interest in their product. They pay their distributors instead of paying for advertising and it is more targeted. They get more bang for their buck. Doesn't that make sense? Network Marketing is the future method of distribution in this country because it is efficient and it can provide more to an individual than money. It can help a person with entrepreneurial skills and real world business experience. This method can create individual economies so people are not dependent on the government or anyone for their survival.
Don't be left behind in this fast paced method of distribution. Find a company that you can get passionate about and then go to work. This business of Network Marketing is not easy or everyone would be doing it. Stay ahead of the curve and understand the trends that we are facing as a society. Wellness will be leading the way and that is why I chose Isagenix. If living healthier and longer is your passion then I would love to speak with you.
