Will my programs work for you?

Will my associate program's work for you? You must understand that joining a program doesn't guarantee you success, just as buying a franchise doesn't guarantee success. It means you're starting a business. For those of you who have just joined a program or have been members for many months, YOU OWN A BUSINESS NOW! Many don't treat this event with the importance that it deserves. They figure it's like rolling the dice at Vegas or buying a lottery ticket; consequently they get little out of it. When they don't hit it big in their fleeting attempt, then they go somewhere else and try again. Because of this attitude, they get the same results at each consecutive stop. You must treat your opportunity as you would a traditional business. You wouldn't spend $100,000 or more on a franchise and then not work the business, would you? Then why do it with your network marketing business? There has been no need to acquire investors, no need to put your house up for collateral. Too frequently, with no or little investment (free), many people simply do not take it seriously. Why not? What if it were $100.00? What if it were $1,000.00; is that more serious? How about $10,000? Now that's serious - serious money. The quality of the service is the same, only the dollar amount changes. Be honest with yourself, have you ever thought, 'It's only $20, if it works, it works, if it doesn't it doesn't.' Many people say they will "try THIS program" for 2 or 3 months to see "what happens!" Why bother? They should save their time and not join. Would you open a restaurant with the intention of "trying it" for 90-days? Don't set yourself up for failure by quitting before you even get started. While many people have seen great results within a few short months, the AVERAGE FOR MOST SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE IS MORE LIKE 1-2 YEARS. In my opinion, it takes at least one-year to build a solid foundation that you can expand upon. For others, it can happen quicker because they are working a few hours a day promoting their businesses. The question to ask yourself is, "where do you plan on being in 1 or 2 years?" Lets face it, those years will pass by if you do something or not. At least by being involved you have the potential to build something that could pay you for the rest of your life. Either you can be in the same situation a year or two from now or you could be on your way to building a solid, profitable work at home business, with new friendships made while the companies make you money, and provide useful products and services. Studies have shown that most people who try network marketing stay less than 3 months in the company. They quit because they haven't seen a profit, and move on to the next company. What many don't realize is that the network marketing companies exhibit what is called compounded growth. Compound growth builds over time folks, not in two or three months. Many members have recruited large numbers of people into their programs. Some have only sponsored a few, like 5-10 people. Others have sponsored hundreds. It all compounds to build the sponsor a larger down line and effectively set him or her up for continued success and profits. You need to take some risks and you need to take some initiative to make your business grow faster. You can succeed with some effort. Once again, as I close, you are in business. Your business is sponsoring new members and teaching them to do the same. Some members will be passive and do nothing, and some will be active and do something. Either way, it's their choice and their personal business. But if you take it seriously and you will see the rewards in cash in months and years to come over and over and over. Here is to your continued prosperity and efforts!
