If it is to be, it is up to me!

That’s what entrepreneurial spirit is, MLM or traditional business, it matters not.

Peace Out

The industry has evolved. The next few years will be great for those who choose a good company to build their network.

Most people QUIT network marketing because their company FAILED them. They couldn’t make money fast enough due to a bad compensation plan, had a sorry product, were forced to maintain unrealistic purchase minimums, etc. Having unique, consumable, high-demand products that work along with a stable, reputable company that values its distributors makes a HUGE difference in someone’s success. It’s still up to the person though. Do your research. Equip yourself. If you want success, go to success.

That my friends is the question, You Are or Your Not, it’s that simple, pick a number stand in line, you’re a winner or a looser it doesn’t matter that’s why “Some Do, Some Don’t who cares some where some will”, you decide, but stop complaining and show the world what your made of …Traditional business or Network Marketing, who cares just do something and no matter what you decide it’s your efforts that count not the unscrupulous business man. I’ve heard so many complaints throughout the years and this is crazy.

Network Marketing:
INVESTMENT-A few hundred dollar
ATTITUDE-Nonchalant – will not worry about protecting their investment

Traditional Business:
INVESTMENT-Several thousand dollars
ATTITUDE-I gotta move – will protect their investment

I set-up a traditional pizza business in early 2009, my ideas and my recipes which I had put a lot of time and energy (Research & Development) in the last 22 years and then I sold it and allowed the new owner/licensed operator of the location to use my ideas and recipes for a 6 percent commission fee which is calculated off the “Total Sales” and they need to make every product the way I teach them (DUPLICATION), so am I rich, not even close, and guess what I spent money on several books, online resources and I don’t know how many hours of reading, reading and more reading (hundreds of hours) to learn all I could so that it would help improve my chances of success (Remember there are no guarantees oh wait a minute, there is Death & Taxes). Now I just have to start repeating my action as I did with the first sale and maybe I’ll start making some money and in fact I’m sure I will, did you get it people “DUPLICATION” someone once said “Imitation is the Sincerest Form of Flattery” So Imitate/Duplicate Something and remember if you’re not willing to do the work it doesn’t matter if you’re in network marketing or traditional business you’re going to FAIL an believe me many people fail in both concept you just have more to lose in a traditional business . Warren Buffet, Robert Kiyosaki and countless others are not going to make you rich only you can do that once you understand the secret, it’s there you just have to really want it or you can just be one of the sheeple because this world need good employees, supervisors, managers…maybe some of us just have to face the fact that that is all we will ever be and that’s OK.

PS: I’m not involved with network marketing at this time but have been in the past and in my personal opinion I love it, the products are great but it’s the marketing system that I love the most (It’s the simplest form of duplication, if only more people would understand it). Nobody made me buy the books and tapes but it made me who I am today and I’m grateful because I understand “DUPLICATION” and I hope one day you will as well. Thank you

You have more Freshmen in college than 2nd year students, you have less Jr. than Soph. and you have even less Seniors than Jr…………IT IS A WEEDING OUT PROCESS for those that ARE WILLING TO DO THE WORK and succeed.

MOST PEOPLE FAIL in all industries and some crooks in all. But to blame network marketing as something less for being normal. is just wrong info.

Plus were else can you have no limit to your income if you go to work and do the work on building a network. and start up cost is lowest of anything so it is for everybody, plus it crosses industries …It is really selling FREEDOM of time, income and quality of life to the person. WAKE UP PEOPLE…IT IS THE BUSINESS MODEL OF THE FUTURE. and its TIME IS NOW. [link removed]

@ John – very nicely put

BTW: I removed the name of the MLM that you were describing, because I don’t allow – even innocent – advertising on this blog.

Network marketing has such a bad name because majority of the people in network marketing are very greedy and are blinded by money which can lead into “screwing people over.” Also joining companies with very poor leaders that does not care about anybody but themselves.

I am currently working with a company … the world’s first … company, using the power and profit of network marketing to provide ongoing humanitarian aid around the world.

Since I have two business I am running, money for me is not an issue. I am in this company because of it’s main purpose which is humanitarian work in third world countries.

I am not in this company for money, however, I take this company very seriously and run it like a true business. As a result my team is getting bigger and bigger every day.

So in the end, I believe as long as you work hard, join the right company with the right leaders and not be blinded by money, then network marketing should not be a problem, however, a very lucrative opportunity.

from the topic, the discussions, the experiences shared, etc..

wonder how I missed this great blog… and…
keep up the good work, Adrian
