This has been the question that all successful network marketers eventually must ask themselves. Unfortunately, you cant have them both. Making the wrong decision on this question may provide you with an influx of temporary cash, but you will NEVER find a home. You will never be able to build a residual income stream that can be passed down to future generations. Unfortunately the problem with many Quick Hit, Fast Money programs is they attract 2 types of network marketers, the Vultures and the Followers. Make no mistake about it, you are either one or the other. That is why people that truly care about people avoid these programs. The problem followers seem to have is that they seem to disassociate with reality. A $200, $500 or $1,000 fast start bonus only happens when you enroll someone. It is amazing to me how people that have problems sponsoring someone into a $50, $100, or $200 a month program, suddenly feel that they are now going to have the ability to load people up with products and start collecting fast money? Who are they fooling, other than themselves? This is a ridiculous, unfortunate assumption that most all followers seem to make. The sad part is the vultures, who know better, support this false assumption many times knowing that the follower is struggling in their current low monthly qualification program. Are they concerned about the follower or are they more focused on their quick hit, fast money commission? When you stand back and look at this situation like I have for the past 25 years, the answers seem to be as clear as the nose on your face, doesnt it? The reality is that fast money ONLY OCCURS when someone purchases more products than they really need to start their business. The reality is that Quick Hit, Fast Money Programs always grow quickly and then fall faster than they went up. Why? Because the vultures will not stay around, they prefer to jump to the next hot, quick hit, fast money program and recycle their followers. I could name literally hundreds of programs that I have seen over the years go through this exact scenario. Why am I even addressing this issue? Because these type of programs died off for awhile, and now they seem to be resurging. I feel that it is my responsibility to do my part to warn you. According to the Direct Sales Association over 4,000 new network marketing companies start every year. 85% dont last 1 year, much less 2 years, 10 years, or provide a lifetime home for their associates. Fast growth followed by steep decline, the vultures jump ship and the followers have to make a decision, to be recycled or simply quit the industry all together. I am always amazed how followers follow vultures whom they confuse as leaders. People follow those that appear to be leaders, right wrong, good or bad True leaders, make decisions that not only benefit themselves but also the people that trust and depend on them, if you cross that line, you are destined to jump from quick hit fast money program to quick hit fast money program. DONT DO IT! What do you REALLY WANT from this industry? * Are you looking for a home? * Are you looking for a company where you can develop a long-term, steady and constant residual income stream? * Are you looking for a product you can BE PROUD to represent or would you rather have a token product thrown into a scheme designed to just make money? I could go on and on and ask you some very important questions. But in reality you need to ask yourself these questions, dont you? If you are a good, honest, hard working, loyal person then you and I both know you need to find a home with a solid reputable company and an awesome consumable product. Find this, then.. Stay focused, put your hand to the plow and dont look back and I promise you, a long and fulfilling career. Have a great week! Dale |
