Thinking back now over the last 7 years since I first joined the MLM industry, it’s funny to think that life could have ever been different. What I wanted to do, is rather than just give a blatant promotion to join MLM, give you some insider information AND discuss the positives and negatives of being involved in the Network Marketing industry.
Network Marketing can be a great profession to join, and it can be a huge source of pain and frustration, too. I want you to understand both the positives and negatives should you decide to join the MLM business and attack it head on with all of your effort.
First, let me just share with you that I joined the MLM industry part time in 2002, and I had an absolutely miserable experience attempting to be successful at it all the way from 2002-2007. Not only did I not make any money worth mentioning, but I managed to chase away all but a few of my loyal friends and it seemed that I was worth less financially after 5 years of struggle than I was when I joined MLM in the first place.
Taking a look at the surface of my initial experience, most people would think that I would have been better off if I had thrown in the towel and quit for good (In fact, a lot of well intentioned people encouraged me to.) However, looking at my life style now and what I’ve been able to accomplish proves that it was the right decision to stay in the MLM industry.
So what is it about my life that allows me to justify continuing in the Network Marketing profession after so much catastrophic failure? Well, let’s take a look at a brief comparison. I’m a college dropout. In fact, I went to one year of college and then I decided I wanted to be an entrepreneur and I just quit.
The average household income for someone who’s a high school graduate without a college degree in the USA is $25,900 per year. At the same time the average household income for someone with a professional degree is $109,600. While I certainly am not willing to make any income claims, I’ll say that I currently make way more than anyone I know who works in the professional arena.
So looking at the numbers, does that mean that you should join MLM? Let me share my personal views with you. You might join a MLM company and fail pretty horribly for a few years before you start to see any kind of meaningful results. So rather than asking if you should JOIN MLM, maybe you should ask if you’re willing to do WHATEVER it takes to learn the skills you need to learn to be successful in the MLM industry as a PROFESSIONAL who treats their business like a business.
