'Exposing The Network Marketing Industry'

Growing up and having a father that was a hard working small business owner, shaped the way I approached the world of business when I became an adult. My dad said "go to school, get good grades and then learn a trade and become self employed and you will always be able to put food on the table. So that's exactly what I did. I must admit owning several business' throughout the last 25 years did in fact put food on the table, however, there was always a struggle when it came to having 'free time' and taking a vacation for longer than a week became less of an option. If I did... It only brought on more stress when I returned. I began to feel like I did not own my business at all. It owned me! Then I met my first mentor and the first thing he said to me is; "from the neck down you will always be able to put food on the table, BUT, from the neck up... you can make as much as you want". That is when I began to re think my approach to business and 'time freedom' which is the desire of most hard working small business owners.

My first exposure to Network Marketing was one of caution and distrust. After all, aren't they all pyramids? I was never taught anything about it through traditional education, therefore it has to be a scam right? Wrong! what I found is that it is one of the most fair business models out there today. In fact, financial giants like Warren Buffet, Richard Branson, Time Warner, City Bank etc, have become owners of some of these Network Marketing companies. Even Donald Trump owns one. The truth is, this industry is one of the fastest growing industries in the world today. They have become like invisible franchises, and the start up costs can be less than $500 with very little overhead. It remains one of the only business' out there that allow you to build a global business without any trucks, warehouses, shipping or employees while receiving residual income paid weekly. A small business owners dream! Now I can see why Robert Kiyosaki says it's an Industry who's time has come. I'm very thankful that I chose to engage in this amazing industry and have become one of the top leaders in the world. It is truly a business where anyone can change their life and undeniably worth taking a second look at. Well that's all for now look for my blog tomorrow. Until then... Overcome!
