Network Marketing: How's That Working For You?

Based on personal experience, how would your definition of network marketing read?

Network Marketing - A business in which a distributor network is needed to build the business. Usually such businesses are also MLM in nature in that payouts also occur at more than one level.

Or-
Network Marketing- Ineffective promotion of a business in an industry fueled by hype. Often requires vast amounts of time and money spent in the hope of attracting recruits and customers. Results- Dismal.

What You May Not Have Been Told About Network Marketing...

Failure IS an Option!

The following headline appeared in my inbox recently...

Failure is NOT an OPTION on Our Team!

The truth is, failure is not only an option but a reality for 97% of network marketers.

There are tons of home business opportunities on the internet.
All you have to do is join one with an impressive looking sales page, duplicate their website, keep a positive mental attitude, keep upgrading,(very important!), and you too will achieve HUGE success without next to no effort on your part, possibly even overnight in your sleep! Right?

The truly motivated among you can spend endless time and money promoting your business to friends, family, co-workers, leads lists, anyone and everyone who will listen or at least not run from the sight of you.This will result in the massive recruits that will cause your business to grow exponentially become enormously profitable. Really?

How has that worked out? How long have you been trying and how discouraged and cynical have you become in the process?

Setting up an online or any business without training is like sailing in uncharted waters in a leaky vessel without a compass.
Just like building a house or repairing a car, you need to have the proper instruction and tools to become a success at network marketing.
Imagine trying to build a custom home without a blueprint or create a gourmet meal without the right ingredients.

Occasionally, amidst all the hype found in my inbox, I come across an item of value.
My defining moment was the day I received an offer of a free ebook .
The title immediately grabbed my attention.'The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing'.
I downloaded it, read it and was enthralled. This information completely flew in the face of everything I thought I knew was true.

I learned that everything I had been doing to grow my business, every method I had been told to use was the exact opposite of what really works!

I invite you to download Anne Sieg's ' The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing' .
It's absolutely free.

Failure IS an option.
So is SUCCESS!
