There are many benefits to doing network marketing.

There are many benefits to doing network marketing.  It is the only level playing field, that is no matter who you are, how old you are or what you have done in the past, all have the same chance to really make it. It is the only business model that can be done by anyone at anytime!  Here are some of the advantages of doing network marketing.

MAKE MORE MONEY
When you work for someone you are trading time for money, the only way to make more is to get a raise, or work more hours.  MLM does not have the same limitations. You can earn money when you are on vacation! Once you build the business, you can be doing something else and your team makes money without you even being there. How would you like to get paid for having fun!

WORK WHEN YOU WANT TO
You can make your own hours, work when you want to. You do have to put in the time, but you can arrange it any way you like. If you have job, you have to take off when they say you can, and in an emergency you risk not keeping the job or reduced earnings. Network marketing is not this way, you have to work, but you decide the schedule.

NO BOSS
If you are working for a company, you have someone over you that tells you what to do, when to work, when to take a break, and how many hours you must work. If you are working for yourself in network marketing, you decide these things, you have no boss except yourself and your ambition. You decide how many hours you need to complete a task and what to direct your energies on. You are the boss.

YOU CAN GROW AS A PERSON
Marketing has alot to do with personal growth. Taking responsibility for your business almost forces you to grow as a person.  You have the chance to see just what you can do, gain confidence, learn communication skills and teach others to do the same.  You become a leader. 

There are many advantages to working with a network marketing company. If you need help looking for a company there are people that can help you. Look for someone that has done it, that has a system in place to teach you as you grow, that you can use with the people you bring in to the business.  Don't jump into the first one you see, be selective.  Network marketing is an exciting business and you can make much more money than you can in a 9 to 5 job.  Find a mentor to keep you from the pitfalls, the scams and con artists.  It is a great way to make a living and to make difference in others lives.

Without support and the proper training, you can't hope to be as successful as someone who is being trained and supported by experts in the field.

Have you ever felt like you were drowning and no one was around to pull you out?  If you are trying to make a success of a network marketing business and doing it on your own, you may identify with this guy.  Trying to work a home based business by yourself is really difficult. Without support and the proper training, you can't hope to be as successful as someone who is being trained and supported by experts in the field. If you  fit this description and are failing, I can promise you YOUR FAILURE SO FAR IS NOT YOUR FAULT!
You need a support system to succeed and the proper training you or are most likely to be part of the 90% that traditionally don't succeed in network marketing. 

Here are some recent numbers I think are pretty astonishing. My group is part of a pretty good-size network market1ng company. Our team uses the "Success In 10 Steps" E-book by Michael Dlouhy to find prospects, and others in the company use other means.

Our team brought in 62% of the company's new business for the month of April.
- 82% of the company's new business for May.
- 85% of the company's new business for June.

My mentors have a 60% to even 90% RETENTION RATE! That is the same as the dropout rate of those that don't succeed using the traditional methods, our success rate is the same as the average failure rate!


"Success In 10 Steps" is generic. No companies or products are mentioned. No affiliate links are included. The point of the E-book is to find the Warriors in M-L-M, and to help you connect with them. This is a very effective system.


The traditional way is to make a list of friends and family, and call them to try to get them to a meeting to hear your 'plan'. The trouble with this is you are probably talking to people that don't have an interest in network marketing or even working a home based business! You have to work to get them to just listen to the idea of making money from a network marketing business. We say leave your friends and family alone! These guys are showing me how to find people already wanting to work a home based business. I skip this step completely, the people I talk to want to hear what I have to say!
It is a great ride, and fun since I am talking to others excited about the concept of network marketing. I don't have to get them excited about network marketing first, instead I talk to people looking for a way to make money from home, and I teach them how to think critically about the offers and opportunities out there.  


I didn't have success before but I am now and it is exciting. I am looking forward to being able to work my business and make my art when I want to. I am that much closer to owning my life, are you?
