Matthews Profits: Are You Cut Out for Multi Level Marketing?

Are You Cut Out for Multi Level Marketing?

There is always much ado about multi level marketing being a scam and about the business model being fundamentally flawed. Sometimes, these kinds of acclamations are indeed valid. There are multi level marketing plans that are nothing more than scams, and there are other multi level marketing plans are absolutely certain to go bust.

 

But that doesn’t accurately describe all multi level marketing programs. After all, there have to be some of them that are success stories, as even with all of the detractors out there, this business model is not going away any time soon. So, setting aside the multi level marketing programs that are out and out scams, the real question you need to ask yourself before getting involved in such an opportunity is whether or not it is right for you. Do you have the skills required to make a legitimate multi level marketing opportunity a success?

 

If you listen to a sales pitch your average multi level marketing person, you may think that there is no way you can fail at their program. They seem to suggest that failure is reserved for those who don’t have the common sense and vision to take them up on this opportunity and to capitalize it’s potential. They also seem to suggest that you can pull off their program without investing a lot of time and energy into. It is indicated that the money essentially just rolls in.

 

Well, if you’re signing up for a multi level marketing program because you think it will make you rich overnight and you like the idea of not working a lot, turn around and head for the door. The fact of the matter is that multi level marketing requires as much – if not more – work than your average business. These schemes often appeal to people who don’t really want to work, which is why so many of them end in disaster. If you don’t have the desire or discipline to put a lot of hours in, then multi level marketing is not for you.

 

Next, take some time to seriously evaluate how well you sell. Multi level marketing isn’t like selling a pair of shoes at the mall. It isn’t really even like selling a car. You have to be pushy without turning people off, and you have to be aggressive without coming across as the last person anyone would want to buy something from. You’re going to have to turn to your family and friends to make some sales, and that is going to be tricky and uncomfortable. Are you willing to take that chance? Are you able to figure out when is an ok time to make a sales pitch and when is not? Be aware that with multi level marketing, you have to strike a delicate balance between maximizing your sales and not alienating people, and it is here that people often fall flat on their face.

 

Honest evaluation of your skill set and your abilities will help you figure out whether or not you are made for multi level marketing success.

Before you can have a successful home based business, you must first possess 3 "intangibles." These are things that must come from WITHIN you.

 ===> Intangible 1 <===

First, you must have a strong WHY.

Why MUST you have a successful home business? What is driving you? What is it that you CAN'T have in your life anymore and/or what is it that you absolutely MUST HAVE now?

For me, I couldn't stand working 12+ hours a day anymore and missing the experience of my children growing up. I also absolutely HAD TO HAVE the freedom of being able to control my life and finances through a little box (laptop computer) that I could carry with me anywhere in the world and not be tied to anyone's time pressures or demands but my own. That was my carrot and my stick. I felt a great pain deep in my gut of missing out on my children's lives and the incredible freedom that succeeding in a home based business would provide for me. I found my why. You MUST find yours.

===> Intangible 2 <===

You must BELIEVE that it is possible.

If you don't believe that it's POSSIBLE for you to have a successful home based business or make your living from home, you won't. It's that simple.

For me, figuring out that it was possible was just a matter of realizing that many other people were ALREADY making great money working from home. If they could do it, I could too. It would just be a matter of figuring out what those people were doing and then adapting it to my situation.

There is no shortage of undeniable PROOF that people (millions of them) are making money working from home. Just get online and do some research and you'll find countless testimonials and stories of REAL PEOPLE making real money on the Internet. Or head to your local bookstore and you'll find the same documented evidence of this fact. Truth is, it's getting easier and easier to make money with your own home based business.

I've always said that "affiliate marketing" (a simple way to make money from home) is the job of the future. In the "old" days, you had to go to a potential employer, apply for the position and hope for the best. Now you can simply go to any company you want, fill out their affiliate application and start work immediately. Affiliates are the new working class. In fact, making money with affiliate programs or making your living on the Internet is WAY MORE than possible. It is pretty much (or will be soon enough) unavoidable now. Affiliate marketing is the "job" of the future that's already here TODAY.

===> Intangible 3 <===

You must be willing to MAKE THE LEAP.

Ready, FIRE, then aim... This is the operating philosophy you MUST adopt to succeed with a home based business.

That's backwards for most people who like to aim before they fire. The fact is that home based business success is a moving target... The only thing constant about it is change. You need to stop analyzing the game and simply jump into it. You can't learn from the outside... You have to be IN THE RING to truly understand it.

The lesson here is that you will never really be READY to start a home based business. You simply have to start one. It's like having children... You're never really ready, but when it happens you adapt and grow. This is what I call "Making the Leap."

The good news is that the cost of failure with having your own home based business is very small. In the "brick and mortar" world you need to evaluate things very carefully before you decide to open up a business. It's almost always necessary to invest thousands of dollars to get an offline business off the ground. However, on the Internet you can often start a successful business for less than $100. The Plug-In Profit Site is a great example of this: http://www.PlugInProfitSite.com/main-21709

You simply need to get IN THE GAME... Each moment that you stay "out there," you're wasting valuable time that you could be learning and skills necessary to build a successful home based business. In fact, if you're not in the game yet, you're ALREADY behind the times. Make the leap to creating a successful home based business today!
