Where will You be in 5 Years?

Posted by Wayne Woodworth in Network Marketing | No Comments

That’s a popular question during job interviews and annual reviews. Where do you want to be in 5 years?

The way things have been going for the past year or so, many businesses just hope to still be around in 5 years.  A lot of them are downsizing right now trying to hold on, which leaves a lot of people out of working wondering how they are going to make ends meet.

There is one industry I know of that is expanding right now. Network marketing. The heck with trying to get a new job. That just puts you back in the same situation you were before you got let go, wondering when and if it’s going to happen again.

The thing is, this is the perfect time to get into network marketing, and not just because there are so many people looking for a job. People are also looking for better, more cost effective ways to stay healthy. People are looking for ways to be in control of their lives for the first time in a long time. The right network marketing business can offer than.

I’m with one company that is growing like wildfire right now, and it isn’t one of those fly-by-night businesses. This company is celebrating its 35 anniversary this year. It is in the wellness industry, so it may be the answer to some of the health issues you have been facing too.

There are a lot of MLM companies out there that claim that they offer the one key to good health, usually some form of nutritional supplement drink or energy drink. The truth is though, there isn’t just one key. What works for one person might not work for someone else. I only know of a small number of companies that offer a variety of solutions to increase the chances of having something that will work for nearly everyone.

I will be honest with you. Unlike what a lot of people try to tell you, network marketing probably isn’t going to get you rich over night. It might take several months, or even a year to start making some real money. A lot of people never make any real money, but that’s mostly because they give up after they see that it takes work to build a real business, and this is as real a business as running a restaurant. The benefit is that you don’t need a lot of money to start and you don’t have the huge overhead costs.

So, where will you be in 5 years? Working a job wondering day to day whether you will go back tomorrow, or building you own successful business?

Response to Network Marketing Scams

Jan 11

Posted by Wayne Woodworth in Network Marketing | No Comments

You’ve seen the business opportunity offers that say “no recruiting necessary” or “we do all the work for you”. Doesn’t that sound like a “too good to be true” kind of deal? It does to me. Any time someone tells me that I can make money without doing anything I start thinking “scam”.

I was thinking about this today and I believe I know what they might be doing, at least some of them. My guess is that they are in an MLM business that has a binary compensation plan. In a binary plan you only have two legs and you get paid based on the weaker of them. If you recruit more than two people then you place them in your downline somewhere under someone else. This discourages people from stacking everyone in one leg and ignoring the other.

What these “no recruiting necessary” businesses probably do is, as they recruit people, they will build a strong leg for you, balancing out both of their legs, so that they get paid. Another problem for you is that these contacts aren’t yours and they have no loyalty to you if something happens with the business down the road. Since you aren’t doing anything to build your weak leg, or a stronger leg, you aren’t likely to make very much money, if any at all. You could start recruiting people and build out your legs, so I don’t think it is a complete scam, but the offer is definitely misleading. The ones who do the work will always be the ones who make the money.

I will make you a similar offer, with a slight difference, if you will take a look at the company I am with. Join my team, tell other people about it, then get them in touch with me. If they join, they go in your team. There are several differences with my offer. First, the company I am with, Nikken, does not have a binary compensation plan. You have a team and you make money based on your performance and theirs. You do the first step in recruiting new people by getting them interested enough to talk to me, so they are your contacts and loyal to you, not me. You also learn how to do the business because you are an active participant, not someone sitting on the sidelines. It’s a bit of on-the-job training so that eventually you won’t have to depend on me as much and can make the same offer yourself to continue building your team.

Here are some links to help you with your due diligence.
