Network
Marketing - The Ultimate People's Business
If you've ever heard
of Network Marketing, you've probably heard it said
that it is essentially a people's business. Some have
also labelled it a people's franchise because of the
similarities between the business models of network
marketing and franchising. Advocates of the industry
name it as the ultimate people's business and say there
is nothing quite like it.
Of course people that are in network
marketing will immediately respond positively to this
whereas those that are not familiar with the industry,
or have had some bad experiences might be strongly opposed
to this idea. One of the unique characteristics of this
type of business is that every individual distributor
is in business for themselves but never by themselves.
They will always be part of a larger organization and
the compensation models are designed in such a way that
every person can count on some form of support from
their upline.
It is no secret that fortunes can be
made in this type of business and many have done just
that. Of course this is not the majority of network
marketers, but every individual distributor does have
the same chances. Success or failure in network marketing
is not dictated by politics, race, age, background or
gender, but always by results. In that respect it is
probably also the fairest business model in the world.
For many people however the true value
of their home based business is not directly in the
financial return. The lessons a person can learn while
building his or her own network marketing business are
truly priceless. Many people are totally transformed
through the personal growth they experience as a direct
result of their challenges in their MLM businesses.
It forced them to get out of their comfort zones, grow,
and in many cases become a better person.
So what is so unique about network marketing
in this respect? Doesn't every entrepreneur have to
deal with challenges? The answer of course is: Yes,
they do. And they also experience personal growth as
a result from this. However there is a significant difference.
Most entrepreneurs are self made and many of them learned
their trade largely outside of formal education. Either
they were taught by a family member, a mentor or perhaps
they learned everything the hard way: by trial and error.
Very rarely will you find an entrepreneur that has an
extensive library of books and tapes on personal development.
Most businesspeople don't attend seminars and motivational
trainings. They think it's all a bunch of hype. While
in some cases this can be true, there are many trainings
and seminars that teach the principles of success better
than any textbook found in business schools.
One of the great things about network
marketing is that this type of education is built into
the training systems of all good companies. There is
no business on the face of the earth that places such
a strong and direct emphasis on the importance of personal
development as the network marketing industry. Many
companies might argue that they spend a great deal of
their budget on education; training employees and as
such assisting them in personal development but in most
cases what they are actually talking about is personnel
development. Although the words are almost identical,
their meanings are vastly different.
Network marketing is all about building
people. It is probably the best school on the planet
if you want to learn about what it takes to be successful
in life and you don't need rich parents or some kind
of scholarship to enroll.
