How Network Marketing Saved My Soul
Most people reading that headline will shiver at the thought of network marketing and some of you will quit reading at this sentence just because of the word. For those of you that have braced yourselves for rest of the story, I thank you and promise there will be no opportunity being pitched for you to buy into the next big thing in this post. You see my experience with network marketing was probably similar to many of you. I remember going with my mother as a kid to go pick up her Amway orders from the local distributor who also happened to be a long time family friend across town. I knew nothing about the business model itself, all I knew is all the products in the house from laundry detergent to deodorant and toothpaste all had the same packaging and were not the name brands everyone else was using. Many, many years later I was introduced to another product that contained a bunch of juices blended together and well I drank the Kool-Aid and was sold. I learned everything I could from the people who were successful in network marketing. For several years I was that guy that everyone ran from when they saw me coming because I had something new to sell them. The funny thing was I was not a people person but yet if I believed in a product I could sell it to my grandmother without blinking an eye.
