Network Marketing: Is It For You?

Have you ever wondered to yourself, "I'm no good at selling, so this isn't for me." Did you know that you're already doing it. The problem is, you're not getting paid for it! "What?" you say. "How can I already be doing it? I haven't joined anything. I don't even have my own business." Most prospects i talk to are blind to this reality so here is a fact you need to know...you sell something every day! Every time you have a conversation with someone and you suggest a book, movie, restaurant, etc, you're selling your ideas or opinions. This is called word-of-mouth. Imagine using this same concept in business? Word-of-mouth now takes on a more poignant and broader meaning. Why not get paid for something you're already an expert at?


"Expert?" you ask. Yes, you are an expert. Take this for example. You paid to see the movie. The people you recommended the movie to also paid to see it, right? And the people they recommended it to... and so on. Now, did you get paid for referring this movie? NO. Did anyone you recommended it to get paid for recommending this movie to others? NO. The only person who got paid was the person who owned the theater. Wouldn't it be nice if you got paid too?

This is why Network Marketing is so popular and lucrative. You and everyone you refer and everyone they refer gets paid. Network Marketing is the fairest system by far because the success or non-success you attain correlates directly to the contribution and effort you've applied, personally. It's not based upon your position within the organization. It comes as no surprise that more and more people are flocking to them as a source for a residual income. 


What is Residual Income? 


It's income that you receive, month after month, due to a one-time effort on you part, i.e investing in a product, referring people, building a team and sitting back to reap the rewards. 

Once you've made your decision to take advantage of the opportunity Network Marketing has to offer, you have to push, give it all you've got until you crest that hill and your group starts to experience sustained growth on its own. It requires selling your products and referring as many people as possible until you find the ones who will duplicate your efforts and become leaders. Network Marketing is all about leadership. Once you find those who will inspire and lead in your organization, the momentum will become impossible to stop.

This is why Network Marketing works so well. You are basically earning an income from the work of everyone in your whole organization, whether you sponsor them or not. If each person in your own personal organization duplicates what you do, you have a situation where everyone has the same amount to gain. It's the fairest structure because everyone has the same opportunity to create the same situation. They can even surpass you! But, their efforts benefit you too. So it's a win-win situation. So if you have an interest in making money on your own terms and making your own hours, but don't have the necessary capital to get started, this industry might be exactly what you are looking for.
