I got into Network Marketing Profession to solve my own personal problem.
What was that problem?
1. I knew what a job or working for a corporation would be like. I had many examples of good people who worked 40 hours a week for 40 years produced.
I just wasn't someone who could do that. I have never bashed that concept, I just sat through the interviews and realized I'd be the guy jumping out the window on the news in a couple of years.
2. Traditional business did nothing but suck all the time and money out of you that you had. I went bankrupt trying to save my Father's printing business and I went bankrupt doing it on my own. Payroll taxes, overhead, inventory, equipment, competition, you name it, I experienced it. There is nothing like working at midnight in your own business trying to figure out how in the world you're ever going to have a life outside of delivering the product your customer wants, or risk losing them to your competition.
Network Marketing forces the company you represent to do all the heaving lifting.
They have to manufacture, store, pick, pack, ship and pay commissions for you.
You don't have to worry about employees, rent, overhead, inventory, returns, charge backs, taxes, competition.
You get to be FREE.
You talk, you point people to a website and you are free if you do that enough times.
That is what I do and will do until the day I die.
But, this Profession is not void of problems or "drama" of corporate America or traditional business.
Some people get "deals" to join a program and some people don't like that and think it's illegal and get on their soap box about how it gives our profession a bad name.
Nothing irritates me more than they phrase:
"It gives our profession/industry a bad name".
So many weak minded people live in this world.
Utopia is a concept and ideal, it does not exist in this world.
To believe Network Marketing is void of the same temptations and problems of Corporate America and traditional is naive at best.
It just allows you to be free.
You get to work from home in your pj's and t-shirt and call your own shots.
That's it.
That scares the hell out of most people, I on the other hand, embraced that.
Network Marketing is not perfect, but I believe it just a better way to live your life.
I get to stay home.
I don't spend 10 hours outside my home doing what someone else tells me to do every day.
I am not controlled by an outside force that makes me fear losing my job or income.
I'm in a very small percentage of the population, I understand that.
But, this is how I choose to live my life.
I will have no regrets on my death bed.
I "went for it" and I'm damn glad I did!
