Do you sell or educate for better profits in this special network marketing home business?
I always enjoy speaking with home-based business opportunity seekers. They have so many good questions that require proper, hype-free answers. I can relate to my first efforts in starting a home business by following a program without a proper overview of how this special home business worked. I followed with “blind faith” that the master marketer would inspire more and more “followers.”
Unfortunately, this home business model based on network marketing concepts doesn’t work that way. Its residual matrix model is based on duplication of a simple business plan. It is not about leaders creating more leaders. It is about regular people with hopes for a better lifestyle communicating with other regular people.
So my main answers are to make sure new people understand the foundational principles of network marketing. This will ensure that common mistakes can be avoided, and unnecessary costs eliminated and time saved. After all, customers buying important products for personal use are the basis of long –term commissions.
One of the most common questions is related to selling. Do I have to sell anything? I have no experience. I don’t like sales. After all, customers buying important products for personal use are the basis of long-term commissions.
These concerns and fears are absolutely relevant. How about you? Do you feel that you are unable to sell, or may even see selling as negative. Perhaps you may have had a past experience where you have been pushed into buying something you didn't want, or felt hassled by a salesperson.
The process of selling is an exchange of information between two people talking…one is looking for a solution to a problem..the other is providing some answers.
Both ways, they are selling each other whether about the problem or the solution. At the end, one person will “sell” the other.."my problems are too great" or "your solution seems the right first step to take." Our consumer society shows we are always willing to exchange money to buy if we find what we want.
The fact is that there are both very good and very bad sales people! Bad sales people are only interested in what they will personally get out of the sale and will use every tactic to close the deal for their own gain.
A good sales person will not sell something to anyone unless they truly believe that they will benefit from it. They will ensure all important questions are answered and if someone is still not interested, then they will stop pushing. The good sales person will also go to any length to ensure that all customers are completely satisfied with their purchase.
But here is the $64,000 question:
Do networkers SELL a product or EDUCATE a better financial future?
Is network marketing all about really selling a product that can be bought in a local retail outlet, or does it offer the unique advantage of presenting an improved lifestyle opportunity? What other options are there?
You don’t need to “sell” a better, more financially free future...most people would be interested in "buying" and upgrading their status quo. However, first, you must educate about the key concepts to get you there.
So, on one hand, you have particular products..as the means by which to make residual income…Note that most network marketing companies produce cutting-edge research and development products. Do your due diligence here to understand the value and benefits.
On the other hand, you have an opportunity, a decision to make to start a home business of this type that can change your life and your finances forever. You have a situation where you can identify ways in which your business can help other people to achieve life long ambitions.
It’s simple to say “no’ to a product..a bottle..a box in a competitive marketplace, but you have to think more responsibly about saying “no” to a home business opportunity that can build independence for you and your family.
Ultimately, the best way to make any decision is to educate first. Get your facts. Get your overview.
Start to change your belief system...
Understand the four key words to home business success is "I can do this."
Get educated and enlightened about how the greatest, simplest, low-cost, high-potential earnings home business functions...
Now go out and check the products and see if you are willing to “buy”.
In conclusion, this home business model is unique that allows every person the right to have a profitable home business. Get smart and help others get smart. Get wealthy and others will knock on your door.
Does this mean I have to be a teacher now rather than a salesperson?
Goodness, no! Use professional teaching tools to tell the story for you.

What number will you dial for how to start a home business
What number will you dial for how to start a home business?
Many people are looking at a home business for a variety of reasons including the general overview that the economy is still on a uncertain ride accompanied by unemployment and credit card debts.
Plus, even if you have a current job, there is still the desire to have some extra income, some extra savings for a better personal financial well-being.
Plus what about THE DREAM deep inside you that hasn’t been given “the chance”..the one thing you would like to do if money and time were no objection.
Many home-based opportunities abound. Everyone is trying to sell you on what they think you need. But who do you call? Who will help? How can I minimize time and cost? How much do I invest and how much can I expect to make?
Here are two plans to check out and two numbers to choose to call:
PLAN A ...Call this number 123-456-7890
1. Plug into a large successful company and help promote products
2. Plug into marketing system and work with team leaders
3. Set up your back office control center
4. Learn how to manage a total contact lead capture and management system
5. Set up company’s replicated website with conference calls/webinars/archives
6. Set up marketing system site with information re different plans/consultants
7. Set up blogging sites / write articles to introduce yourself with leadership qualities
8. Set up profiles on social marketing pages to help promote opportunity and marketing
9. Integrate customer/personal auto-responder messages and follow-up
10. Now take steps 1 – 9 and train a new home business partner to follow the same system.
Can I add, good luck...been there..done that..cannot recommend
PLAN B ...Call this number 1 – 2 – 3
1. EDUCATE customers/clients about home business FACTS in the network marketing industry…simple curriculum guide..30 minute slide presentation and e-book
2. EMPOWER people to change their BELIEFS (habits and mindsets) to believe they can win the “big picture”…built-in component in curriculum guide
3. CHANGE by plugging into an excellent company and extraordinary product.
The above three steps are then shared with other people who also want to be educated, empowered and ready to change to a better lifestyle and financial security.
To truly understand the abundant potential of this home business opportunity, you must see how the residual payment matrix is not about the "product" but about sharing a simple marketing plan that everybody can do.
As well, now this process has been made even simpler, if that is possible, by sharing three short videos about defining the concept of network marketing, comparing two marketing plans and then setting up a straight-line home business with no excuses allowed.
In closing, I’ve worked my fingers to the bone using the number 123-456-7890 with satisfactory results but limited duplication or business partners. Any reasons why, do you think? I am excited to share a simple plan and number. Won’t you try it also?

Find your Golden Hollywood Ticket with a Home Business..There's Always a Way
You'll find your "Golden Hollywood Ticket" at the end...your song: There's Always a Way
One of the most popular ongoing shows is American Idol.
The fascination is at many levels...but for me I am most impressed by the exuberance and the talent of these beautiful young people. Probably, most of us see ourselves standing “outside the ring of fire” but we still experience the dizzying range of emotion from the first overwhelming rush of adrenaline when being picked with the golden Hollywood ticket, to dedication to try their best before judges on the world stage (that would defeat most of us), to hopes, dreams; and for most, the heartbreaking words “you’re not good enough.” Only one will reach the peak after so many with so much huge talent have climbed the mountain of "sweat and tears" and belief they could “win”.
So it makes me stop and think about my home business based on the network marketing model.. It is founded on the principle that everyone can apply..no special talents needed…just a desire to be more successful, more recognized, more financially secure, more lifestyle with freer choices. If we’re not talented and beautiful, we can still perform important services. We can still achieve that sense of joy and accomplishment with a profitable home business helping others. Our God-given talents are the ability to communicate, to care and share. Shouldn’t there be some commensurate rewards for being good, responsible and seeking some credibility and independence?
There is no other Broadway “casting-call” that comes close to the potential of exciting success as a network marketing home business. BUT the process must be DONE RIGHT through education, self-empowerment and then change. The opposite doesn’t work…first embrace change, then feel good about it, and now go and tell others. One of the most important elements in a mind-changing education is self-empowerment or self-belief I can do this, I deserve this, I can win.
And in this regard, the sweetest song I can sing, mainly to myself, or any one else who cares to listen, is this wonderful affirmation shared by a fellow networker called
Say it loud everyday…there’s always a way...see and feel yourself believing in purpose and achievement…there’s always a way. No judge will discredit you. An audience of people will sing along. And your reward is to build a great home business to share with everyone.This is my “golden ticket to Hollywood” and far more... in the sense that this will be my beautiful talent…and all I need to know.
Your comments about positive things or "golden tickets" in your life are always appreciated.
Thanks,

There's Always a Way
How many times have you said to yourself...."How am I going to do this?"This is a perennial question to all of us. Too often we get stuck in thinking and by buying into our insecurities and let opportunity pass us by because of some fear about not knowing enough, not being enough, not knowing where to begin, not being quite ready, and the excuses keep buzzing..
The only way to reach the goal you set for yourself is to begin it NOW by taking a first step towards it no matter whether you know the final answers or not. Action will create momentum and momentum will create an ability to forge through any adversity you perceive is in your way.
Just remember one thing... There's Always a Way for you to have all you desire. The answers are right within you so stop telling yourself you can't and start telling I CAN!
Everywhere you are there is a power and presence that is aligned with the magnificence of who you are. This power is infinite in its wisdom, imagination, creativity, and desire to bring out in you the best that you can be. No matter what may appear on the surface, you have all the tools to have and build the LIFE you dream about. Remember one thing, you wouldn't be able to dream something if you didn't already have that dream inside of you.
It is so easy to give up and throw in the towel when you come up against a challenge you think is insurmountable. That's the very time you must ramp up your desire for success and find the ways you need to turn those challenges into opportunities. You can do it. No matter what you may think about hard situations you always have the choice to think of the solutions to get you through them.
There's Always a Way to make your day the very best it can be when you start to say yes to all the excellence you are by your own CHOICE of WORDS...
"The flow of life doesn't make decisions to create hardships for anyone....those hardships are created by the limited thinking that we decide is our truth..."
Our real truth is that we are abundant, prosperous and gifted with all the tools to accomplish anything we decide to do... listen to yourself so the story you hear is one of complete desire to fulfill all the success you can dream about.
Repeat these words as a daily ritual, a few times, if you wish..
I AM infinite abundance
I AM infinite prosperity
I AM magnificence and excellence
I AM the flow of creativity
I AM a discoverer of my greatness
I AM committed to my success
I AM Free Right NOW To Be ME
It's MY day... I WILL MAKE IT A GREAT ONE!
Even if I knew that tomorrow would go to pieces…I would still plant my apple tree…Martin Luther King
