A business that offers products or services to consumers is called a’retail’ business. A business that sells products or services to other businesses is called an ‘wholesale’ business.
A network marketing business is a retail business, but it is also a wholesale business. It’s a hybrid of both.
In a network marketing business, you are not selling directly to the consumer. You are selling to your downline (other people in your business) who then sell to the consumer. This creates a huge advantage for network marketers because they can create a huge downline very quickly and they don’t have to deal with customer service issues or complaints.
It’s important to note that this type of business does require a lot of hard work, especially when you’re first starting out. It’s also important to realize that it will take time before you see any significant profits. The reason for this is that you must build your downline first. You cannot make money by just making sales.
If you are interested in starting a network marketing business, I suggest that you read books such as “The Millionaire Next Door” by Thomas J. Stanley and William D. Danko, “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill, “Rich Dad Poor Dad” by Robert Kiyosaki, and “The E-Myth Revisited” by Michael Gerber. These books will give you some great insight into how to start a successful network marketing business.
You should also look into getting involved in a MLM company that has a good reputation and one that has been around for a while. It is also important to look into the compensation plan offered by the company. If you find a company that has a good compensation plan, you’ll be more likely to stay involved.
Another thing you should consider is joining an MLM company that has a product line that you can promote. If you have your own product line, you won’t have to worry about finding products to sell. You can also use your own product line to help build your downline.
