It was back in 2006 when I was invited by a good friend of mine by the name of Chris Bellamy to a Primerica<\/span> Opportunity meeting. \u00a0At this point I was home for the summer after my third year in college at UCONN and was exposed to a whole new world that I can honestly say I knew absolutely nothing about. \u00a0At this meeting I got my first dose of what living financially independant meant, how money works, and how shitty a 4o year career at a J.O.B.<\/span><\/span><\/strong> can be if I went that route. \u00a0The information I learned on that night totally blew me away and was easily by far worth more than any information or knowledge I had gained in my 3 years of college up to this point and for a far lower price than my college tuition. \u00a0I ended up singing up as representative and as a representative I eventually became a \u00a0licensed life insurance agent with Primerica.<\/p>\n

Throughout my time there it was recommended that I read books such as Rich Dad, Poor Dad by Robert Kiyosaki, Developing the Leader From Within by John Maxwell, and How to Master the Art of Selling by Tom Hopkins just to name a few. \u00a0These books brought about knowledge to me that I\u2019m not sure I would have ever been exposed to, had I never became a part of Primerica<\/u>. \u00a0The books as well as the people that I was surrounded by within the company made a very positive impact on my life to say the least. \u00a0On top of it we would have weekly trainings in which we would learn about different products ranging from mortgages, life insurance, investments, and most importantly the mindset<\/a> of an entrepreneur and successful people. \u00a0I am extremely thankful for having been given this information.<\/p>\n

Prior to this I was a naive college student who had been taught that if I graduated from college I\u2019d be all set. \u00a0 But what I learned was that most people who do take the route of graduating college wind up working for 40 years in hopes of a nice retirement, but instead wind up broke and miserable.<\/span><\/span><\/strong> \u00a0I had no idea but like they say you don\u2019t know what you don\u2019t know. Only thing I can ask for is that I wish I would\u2019ve knew this information before I filled out all of those damn college applications back in 2002. I coulda gone on to save myself a few thousand dollars rather than giving it all to Sallie Mae\u2026LOL\u2026 But hey late is \u00a0better than never. \u00a0One of the saddest things in life<\/span><\/span><\/strong> is living your whole life thinking you have it all figured out and realizing that there was a much better way to live out your dreams. I am forever in debt to Primerica and the leaders who taught me all the valuable lessons that I learned.<\/p>\n

It is because of my exposure through Primerica<\/em> that I have continued to educate myself and invest in myself by reading books, going to seminars, and meeting awesome individuals who decided that they will no longer depend on a J.O.B.<\/span><\/span><\/strong> as their means to reaching their dreams. \u00a0Of all the lessons I learned, the fact that working a job will never create the true FREEDOM<\/span> or income that I desire has resonated with me the most.<\/p>\n

Shortly after working the Primerica<\/strong> business I was exposed to this wonderful world of internet marketing and have been able to meet some great individuals living lives of freedom as well as lives free from from financial stress. \u00a0As a Primerica representative I was not the most responsible individual that I should have been and did not reach my full potential by any means with such a fine opportunity. \u00a0The fact that Primerica didn\u2019t work for me can not be blamed on anyone other than myself. \u00a0That\u2019s definitely another great thing I\u2019ve learned since being exposed to the wonderful world of entrepreneurship which is if something doesn\u2019t work out for you don\u2019t blame anyone but yourself.<\/span><\/span><\/strong> \u00a0It\u2019s not the company\u2019s fault but instead your very own. \u00a0Whether you are not motivated, lack the necessary mindset, or just don\u2019t know how to market is noones fault but your own. \u00a0I am the ONLY one responsible for my success.<\/span><\/strong> \u00a0If we aren\u2019t successful it\u2019s because we chose not to be. \u00a0The blame game will get us nowhere fast\u2026<\/p>\n

I would say aside from my mindset not being where it should\u2019ve been consistenly during my introduction to entrepreneurship my next biggest problem was not knowing how to market.<\/span><\/span><\/strong> \u00a0I \u00a0went through my warm market and once that ran dry I had no marketing skills to get leads necessary to continue to grow my business. \u00a0One thing we must all learn in all network marketing<\/a> opportunities is that it\u2019s called NETWORK MARKETING<\/span><\/span><\/strong> for a reason. \u00a0Yeah you may have a network and market to them initially. \u00a0But once your network (i.e. warm market)<\/em><\/strong> \u00a0has run dry it is up to you as a business owner to learn how to market your business<\/span><\/span><\/strong>. \u00a0It is not the companies responsibility to market for you, but your own. \u00a0This is your business. \u00a0The company does their own marketing\u2026 what do you think you are there for as an independant affiliate of the company. \u00a0You are there to market for the company. This is why most network marketing companies don\u2019t have many paid ads in the form of billboards and commercials for example for the most part in the \u00a0network marketing niche. They have the reps or salesforce to do this for them AKA YOU<\/span><\/span><\/strong>. \u00a0This is why as network marketers you have the potential to reap such great rewards and not have to submit to the shitty 40 40 40 plan<\/span><\/strong><\/span>. \u00a0You know work 40+ hours a week for 40 years to live on 40% of what you were making if you even get to retire. \u00a0It\u2019s kind of scary in fact, very scary, but you\u2019d be surprised how many people submit to this modern day slavery for their entire lives. \u00a0Enough of that so getting back to what I was saying\u2026<\/p>\n

Better Primerica Business Opportunity<\/h2>\n

It\u2019s not your companies responsibility to market for you but YOUR OWN<\/span><\/strong><\/span>. \u00a0You are a business owner and there\u2019s no difference between you, your local pizza shop owner, and a large chain like Subway or McDonald\u2019s. \u00a0Your all business owners, you all need customers to survive, and you all need to market aka ADVERTISE<\/span>. \u00a0If you can\u2019t spend some money on advertising or don\u2019t know some free methods to grow your business you can expect to be stagnant for a very long time and in fact you can possibly expect to lose some business as time goes on.<\/p>\n

Just because your upline was able to build an upline 10, 15, 20 years ago \u00a0through a warm market, cold calls, opportunity meetings, and word of mouth doesn\u2019t mean you will. \u00a0Don\u2019t get me a wrong a small percentage of people will but when I say small I want to stress small\u2026.Small as in less than 1% yes I said it less than 1%\u2026.But don\u2019t let this upset you it\u2019s 2012 and guess what you have the INTERNET\u2026.<\/p>\n

I can assure you that if you learn how to leverage the internet you probably won\u2019t have the issues I brought upon myself<\/span><\/span><\/strong> as a Primerica rep when I had very little knowledge about marketing. Do you think that your local pizza shop would be as successful if he didn\u2019t market his business.<\/p>\n

He spends a couple thousand on phonebook ads and flyers to put on your door step for a reason\u2026.No I don\u2019t recommend putting ads in the phonebook in 2012 by the way lol\u2026. but hopefully you get my point. \u00a0McDonalds and Subway spend millions of dollars on commercials for a reason don\u2019t ya think???? \u00a0So what would make you think that you shouldn\u2019t invest in your business and market it??? Think about it\u2026And if your like I was and you don\u2019t know how to market well there\u2019s no better place that I can think of for a newbie like yourself to begin learning and applying what you learn<\/span><\/span><\/strong> than CLICK RIGHT HERE<\/span><\/span>\u00a0especially if your new to the whole world of marketing, advertising, and the getting leads online. \u00a0Getting leads for your business and learning how to market online is much easier than you would ever think and let me tell you it\u2019s much easier and less stressful than chasing friends and family<\/em>\u2026That shit can make you wanna beat your head against the wall at times. \u00a0How do I know??? I been there, and I easily found that leveraging your business online is much easier and just think about how many people are online daily.<\/p>\n

Primerica Services Review<\/h3>\n

If facebook alone has over 500 million members and is just 1 website, just think about how many people are online daily\u2026Exactly alot of people who are looking for opportunity, who are sick of their job, and don\u2019t want to be part of the 40 40 40 plan but just haven\u2019t met you or your opportunity yet. \u00a0So instead of trying to convince your buddy who can care less about being financially independant and living a dream life why not attract people who are looking for what you have to offer? \u00a0Doesn\u2019t it make alot more sense??? \u00a0With the internet you no longer have to twist arms but instead you can speak to people who are looking for what you have to offer rather than trying to convince people who are trying to repel<\/span><\/strong> what you have to offer\u2026.<\/p>\n

So if you\u2019d like to get done with the BS and start marketing like other business owners and begin attracting more leads, more recruits, and serving more people<\/span><\/strong> I suggest you learn the necessary skills NOW!!!! \u00a0Or keep doing what you\u2019ve been doing and we both know what doing the same thing over and over and over again and expecting different results is right?\u2026INSANITY<\/span>\u2026.Don\u2019t be INSANE CLICK HERE!!!!<\/span><\/span> It can\u2019t get worst it can only get better\u2026\u2026<\/p>\n

P.S.<\/span><\/strong> Network marketing, MLM, and Affiliate marketing<\/a> has changed forever it\u2019s the age of the internet take advantage or sit on the sideline beating your head against the wall like I did\u2026..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
