What is Network Marketing Really?

It is amazing to me the people who immediately shoot down a good product simply because they find out something is a network marketing company.  Do you know how many network marketing companies there are just in the United States?  Wikipedia list many of the network marketing companies in the U.S. and they have 63 listed . . . that doesn't even include the whole food supplements I am on (don't worry, I know it will be a household name in the near future) who is just been focused in the United States for a couple of years so I know there are probably tons more! 

Beachbody, Pampered Chef, LuLaRoe, Discovery Toys, Premier Designs Jewelry just to name a few. Selling all types of items by independent distributors or promoters who believe in their products. They are being their own bosses, working their own hours, and living the lifestyle they want to live. Whether they are part-time or full-time depends on their current circumstance, but one thing is for sure . . . they are dedicated to the future way of sales!
 
​Why people think negatively about network marketing companies is really a very easy answer. In this day and age, many people see great results that some people are having with direct marketing companies. They see the benefits of good money and wish they had it as well. They join thinking they can contact three to five family members or friends and then sit back and reap the benefits! What they don't see are the many long, hard hours that those successful business men or women put into their network marketing business. Can you see starting a new mortar and brick business such as a bakery or hair salon and only putting in an hour a day or two to three weeks and then stop working? What business would survive for one year like that . . . one month for that matter?!? None! 

​We are not a pyramid scheme. We are a multi-level marketing company with incredible benefits and residual income should you stick out the tough hours and work. You can only get out of the network marketing company what you put in. Go in with the attitude that this is your business, you are the boss, but you have to work long hours to get where you want to be. If you don't give up, if you know your why, you will succeed . . . there is no doubt about that!
