Network Marketing – A Good Place to Begin Your Road to Financial Freedom?
This is an article that will be published on www.ezinearticles.com!
My name is Sara Abrams and I am a network marketing addict!! There, I’ve admitted it to the world. I’d like to share with you some of my adventures in the world of multi-level marketing and hopefully spare you some heartache and loss of cash!
Let me start by stating that I really believe in multi-level network marketing. If you can find a product that you LOVE and believe in, and you can buy in for under $200 you might just be able to build a money generating business. The problem is that you’re going to have to weed out the enterprises that are only going to cost you time and money and dash your hopes of entrepreneurship.
Let’s start with the positive. If you’ve never sold anything in your life but work in an office with a safe, but not very lucrative, paycheck, the beauty of network marketing is that you will learn invaluable sales tools and gain major self esteem. Every time you go to a “rah rah” meeting, or listen to a group phone call with your upline and their upbeat message of financial freedom, you are learning tips and tools that will help you in life, and hopefully in your business. I tend to be a glass is half empty person, and I hate that about myself. One of the wonders of MLM literature and verbal rhetoric is the unstoppable enthusiasm in the power of the product and how every individual in America, and sometimes the world, must have this product to make their lives complete. For myself personally, it is always a good reminder that I can be that upbeat, positive person, and that’s a good thing for my self esteem and outlook on life. You will also meet people just like yourself who have a dream of bettering their life and their family’s life and you’re likely to form some wonderful friendships.
Here are a few tips to save you some heartache. When you are looking at a product ask a few important questions:
1. Would I use this product? Do I believe in this product? If you do, put your money where your mouth is and go ahead and buy the product! Someone at some point is going to ask you if you use it and you’d better be! Otherwise, how will you be able to truly recommend it?
2. How much money out of pocket will I need to begin this business? Include the membership fee and all materials. If you’re not careful you can lose your shirt on training costs, brochures, logo inscribed clothing, and handouts.
3. How many levels deep is my downline and what is my commission when they sell? This will help motivate you to build a team and let the team begin to work hard for you.
4. If I develop a team, can they surpass me in earnings, i.e., if they do more sales than I and get to a management level above me, will I lose any potential earnings? For myself there is no incentive in seeing someone I brought into the company end up succeeding wildly and my not being able to participate in the earnings outcome.
5. Who is my upline? Will I be provided with good support? Will someone be there to train me and answer my questions?
6. Find some people who are NO LONGER involved in the company and ask them why they left. Most people currently involved will only paint a rosy picture, which is what they are supposed to do, but sometimes you need to peek behind the smiles in order to see if this is the right product for you.
7. Do not believe the people who tell you that they spend 1 or 2 hours a day and reap unbelievable financial wealth. It’s just not true. The people who I have seen who succeed in MLMs spend many hours of hard work, at least in the beginning, to get their money making machine well oiled and producing.
Use this as a primer if you decide to get involved with an MLM email me at abrams.sara@gmail.com for some specific MLM companies that I would recommend to you. Good luck!
