How is Network Marketing as a business model? I strongly believe that network marketing provides a great opportunity for people who really want to succeed in running their own business. I’ve seen many examples over the years of people who have been very successful in network marketing but who may not have been so successful in a traditional business environment. Network marketing levels the playing field by offering opportunities to everyone, regardless of previous experience or education.
In terms of starting a business, network marketing certainly provides a low-cost and quick way of setting up.
Most networks charge a fairly nominal price for acquiring an initial starter pack. Contrasting that with the high costs of starting of traditional business, and network marketing seems like a very attractive option.
One thing that I always do say to people is that network marketing is not a quick and easy way to make money. Every single successful network marketer that I’ve met over the years has worked extremely hard at building their businesses.
They have worked consistently hard at getting the basics right. It’s also important to get the right people in your team.
No distributor is ever going to make money simply by retailing a product.
You need people in your team that are going to work the business, and so it’s important to build a team with like-minded and motivated people. The other positive of the network marketing model is its recognition and social aspect.
In this industry people are really applauded for their achievements, and that’s very important for a feeling of self-worth. It’s also a very sociable and positive environment in which to do business which makes it very attractive for many people.
