Network Marketing – -Newbies’ Woes

Restored from the Empower Network archive (2011–2017), lightly edited to meet our current advertising standards. Views are the original author’s.

Who does Network Marketing Attract?

Those individuals whose Purpose and Goal are amongst others:

  • To improve their standard of living
  • Be free from a job they do not enjoy
  • Gain freedom from debt
  • Are tired of being bossed around
  • To step out of the rat race
  • Are lured into taking action through a promise of financial freedom

And it is precisely via this last point that Newbies are sucked into a Horrible spiral of going nowhere fast! How disastrous.

Who cares at the end of the day….? I ask…

Any of the many Marketers who launches product after product?

Gurus so called who “guarantees” success only if you follow their chosen path to wealth?

JV Partners who aid in selling you the next best “how to” software with no guidance re: exactly what you should be doing??

Believe me when I say this: “You (aspirant Marketer) are in a most precarious position. Totally uninformed and unaware re: the Real Purpose behind the many products being paraded in front of you on a daily basis. Lacking real business knowledge and expertise, you are being taken for the ride of your life!

Don’t believe me?

Fine. You may have some corporate work experience or have engaged in your own sole “business” activity. Better still, read up on some books, etc. etc. That unfortunately is Not Enough.

Network Marketing requires a lot more! Guideline Solution to follow… keep reading

 What ‘fool’ Ventures into the Network Marketing Space

When…..

  • You are gullible
  • desperate (falsely taken in by every Shiny Object promoted)
  • Expect overnight riches
  • You do not have the foggiest idea that you are instead embarking on a Path laden with so many potholes and challenges as success itself ‘demands’ from those who seek it?

None of the above are intended to insult your intelligence. Not in the least. Should it not apply to you, then rest assured you are fortunate. The majority of aspirant Network Marketers are not!

What awaits them?

Professionally crafted sales letters and video presentations to entice you to buy, buy and buy. The result is that you get hooked! How come? Because your poor senses are not able to withstand such an onslaught. You are not even ‘aware’ that you are being pulled into a buying frenzy.

And so, driven by Hope, you continue to spend hours upon hours of your valuable time and energy to be successful. Weeks become months.

Before you realize it a year passed by. And yet for others, a few years of struggle. You may learn a few skills along the way. The ultimate prize however, still remains an illusion.

Until it dawns on you….. You’ve been had! Sad indeed.

Network Marketing: The Solution

Your Biggest Challenge in Network Marketing lies in the fact that No One packages the blueprint to become a successful Network Marketer in one accessible file. There are a few exceptions. Mostly its spread across various ‘portals’. I’ll mention but a few vital ingredients to get you off the ground….

A. Goal Setting-

Basically goal setting involves determining where you are now and where you want to end up at a predetermined time in the future. Calculate your current asset value in order to  determine the extend of your investment towards reaching your objectives.

B. Planning –

Discipline demands a daily plan (executed religiously) for maximum productivity. Another for medium and long term goals. Your plan would clearly set out:

  • Priority action steps followed by secondary tasks
  • Varied tasks e.g. reading, listening to informative audio material, learning something new, focused work activity etc.
  • Time frames in which tasks are completed
  • Addressing areas of weakness and ‘exploiting’ your strengths
  • A clear strategy to utilize all available tools effectively towards achieving set goal(s)
  • Minimizing distractions or totally eliminating it where possible

C. Focus & Discipline –

Avoid at All costs attempting to work at more than one Network Marketing business opportunity at a time. That Will be your surest ticket to disaster. Starting out and  then to be negatively enticed by every new product to hit the market, is going to render you ineffective. It requires Strong Discipline and Focus to work at ONE project only!

  1. Finding the Right Mentor

This is in all likelihood your Best weapon available to get you off the ground and reach your destination. That’s if you can afford it. There is No substitute for following an established path, carved out by a recognized professional who would lead the way.

You end up wasting less time. Achieve milestones in record time. And… learn so much more as opposed to battling it out on your own. An added advantage would be the proven systems, resources, strategies, marketing skills, etc. etc. put at your disposal. Putting you on the right track with clarity of mind and purpose comes with the package.

Who are the Notable Ones in the field?

  1. Dan Kennedy- He’s kinda expensive (especially to Marketers from third world countries). Good guidance comes at a price worth paying though He’s the go to guy for the Top Internet marketing Performers.
  2. Rich Sheffren- Less expensive and a true expert in coaching others.

There are more… For the sake of brevity, they are omitted.

Know that Network Marketing is a minefield. Tread carefully. As with any other business model, treat it with the seriousness it deserves. Otherwise find something else to do. No one will judge you?

It remains though one of the least ‘capital’ intensive models on the market available for anyone to realize an excellent return on investment. For those who possess the drive and faith in themselves, Empower Now!
