Is Network Marketing for You?

Seriously folks, is this business for everyone?
Of course not
If you are happy with your job
If you are happy with your salary
If you are happy with your business
If you are happy with the hours you work
If you are happy with your house
If you have money for travel, and time for your kids
If you don’t want anything more than what you already have
Then this business may not be for you.

But if you aren’t where you want to be, if you don’t have what you want to have,
If you can’t spend as much time with your kids as you would like
If you have some sort of discontent with your lot in life
Then this business may be able to help you.

But maybe you are too busy
Maybe you have too much to do
Maybe you have other interests
Maybe you are too old
Maybe you are too young
Maybe you have no education
Maybe you are black, white, yellow, purple…
Maybe, maybe, maybe…
The Network Marketing business model is designed for the busy, the broke, the professional, the novice, the young, the old, the housewife, the executive, the…
Hey, Network Marketing is the equalizer, the chance for anyone and everyone to make it all the way to the top.

But sadly, it is not for everyone
Sadly, most people just don’t see it, because…
They are blinded by that disease called jobism
They buy into the 45 year plan, which means they work for 45 years and retire broke
Ah, but you do see it.
And you want to start
Well, I’m your man
I can help you find the right company…

THE STRUCTURE OF A NETWORK MARKETING COMPANY
When searching for a Network Marketing opportunity, it is generally considered that you examine three things – the company, the product and the compensation plan

The company
• The company, and especially the founders, should have a track record of success in Network Marketing
• The company should have a strong financial base
• The company should have been in the business long enough to outgrow the dreaded start-up phase, during which 90% of all companies go under.
There are two lines of thought here.
1 - The company should be financially secure
2 - The opportunity should be “ground floor”
Ideally you should have both, but of course it is not always possible. Ground floor opportunities are rarely financially secure, while companies that have become financially secure, are no longer ground floor opportunities
But sometimes you can swing it.
If you find a well established company that has just brought out a brand new, winning product, you can have both financial strength and a new burst of momentum.
Likewise if the company enters a new country, the momentum can start all over again.
But the winning move, if you can find it, is the start-up company that partners with a billion dollar giant, thus achieving both financial stability and start-up momentum. It takes a bit of searching, but it’s worth it…you can have it both ways.

The product
From the point of view of Network Marketing, not all products are equal. The ideal product should be what is called “consumable”. That is, it should be consumed regularly and often, which results in regular and lasting residual income (residual income is money you get for repeat orders).
Nutritional products, skin care products, household products and telephone services are excellent because they are used almost on a daily basis. Not surprisingly, the majority of Network Marketing companies market nutritional products.

Other features to look for: the product should be of high quality, something you feel good about using yourself and recommending to others. It should be unique, or at least presented in a way that sets it apart, and of course it should offer good value for money.
Bottom line: you should genuinely love your product. How can you expect others to like it, if you don’t!?

The compensation plan
Some people base their choice of companies on compensation plans.
This is unfortunate because Network Marketing compensation plans are invariably complicated and difficult to understand, and unless you have experience, you can go seriously astray in trying to decipher them.
Furthermore a good comp plan is only a part of it. Far better to look for a product that sells like crazy. What good is an 80% payout on a product that doesn’t sell. Far better a 40% payout on one that sells like hell.
You should also factor good support and good training into the decision making process.

Still not sure?
Let me ask you a question…
What is the difference between a doctor who earns $1000 per day, and a Networker who earns $1000 per day?
The difference is…the doctor has to show up to get paid.
On the other hand, the Networker continues to get paid even if he/she is on a beach in Hawaii, sipping coconut juice – which is why we call this kind of money “coconut money”.

And that is not the only difference. Doctors have large overhead expenses; Networkers have almost none. Moreover Networkers get to keep a higher proportion of their money, because they have many more tax write-offs; being a home-based business, almost any expense can be a legitimate business expense.
