MLM and a down economy

In the last several months, we have seen a multitude of events. People have lost jobs, wages have been cut and companies are declaring bankruptcy.

With this massive shift in our economy, what does it mean for the Network Marketing Industry? Well, if done correctly, 2009 could be the foundation for a new era in Network Marketing.

Here’s what I mean. Many people that relied on Corporate America and a “boss” are realizing the only person to rely on is the person in the mirror. Network Marketing is the answer for many millions of people. And many of these are people who had not thought of MLM as an option.

People, who want to protect their future and really want prosperity, are willing to take charge and take action.

So, as Network Marketing Professionals it’s important to realize that an extra $200, $500, $2000 per month is huge for people. And it’s crucial as we recruit to be honest. Yes, someone can earn an extra few hundred dollars in this industry, or they can earn a six figure income. And the training each individual receives needs to reflect their goals.

If someone truly wants to earn a six figure income, are they willing to put forth that type of effort and action?

It’s true, there are a lot of people who are going to come into our business and want to get rich and successful. But many of those are not willing to commit to the personal growth required to make those goals a reality

And that’s okay. This business can truly help people on many different levels. The ones who really get it, will step up, take action and let nothing stop them.


BELIEVE Success!
