What Are People REALLY Looking For?

August 10, 2009 · Filed Under Starting a home based business · Comment 

These are difficult economic times around the Globe.  People have lost their investments, retirement money, and some even their homes. So it’s no surprise that, historically, home business opportunities THRIVE during a global recession.

recessionWhy?  Because people are looking for help.  They are looking for a way out of their misery and their troubles. They are looking for a replacement for the job they lost, or the job that they fear is short-lived.

Network Marketing is a terrific alternative for those looking for a J-O-B alternative.  It’s probably the one business model that requires the least amount of start-up capital, no overhead, and no employees.

But there is a catch.

For all its positives, the reality is that 97% of all network marketers fail.  They fail for a variety of reasons, but right up at the top of the list is UNREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS.

And who are responsible for these expectations?  Mostly US, the home business entrepreneur.

Because in our haste to grow our team, make our commissions, and set up our residuals, we forgot one thing…..

We FORGOT THE TRUTH.

And that’s what people are really looking for.  THE TRUTH.  Nothing more and nothing less.

So what IS the truth?

This is answered throughout this blog, but I can boil it down to the following….

  • Making money in network marketing requires TIME
  • Making money in network marketing requires MONEY
  • Making money in network marketing requires KNOWLEDGE

So who makes money the fastest?  The ones who have the TIME, the MONEY and the KNOWLEDGE.

Do you need all 3?  NOPE.

But what you lack in one you  must make for with the others.

  • If you lack time but have the money, you can outsource much of your marketing and make money fairly quickly.
  • If you lack money but have the time, then you must learn for yourself.  This will require a steeper learning curve for making money, but it will happen if you persevere.
  • If you lack knowledge, you can either outsource what you don’t know or spend some money on some really good training and do it yourself.

But how fast you  make money is nothing more than the TRADEOFF between these 3 resources:  Time, Money, Knowledge.

And that is the TRUTH,  that is what people really want to know.

That is what they DESERVE TO KNOW before they jump into an opportunity with unrealistic expectations.

To your success!
