It seems that daily I encounter a new sales person who has just started with the best company in the world. Their company has a compensation plan that is the best in the industry, their products/service are second to none and they are EXCITED!
Because I invest a considerable amount of time in various networking events this often happens when I am meeting these people in person for the first time. However, the same holds true for the Internet. Being separated by several thousand miles of Internet is not going to discourage this new and excited business owner.
While I stress the importance of

For any of you that follow my ranting you obviously will know that in the past few days I was addressing the myths surrounding MLM and the Network Marketing industry. As a result of that writing and some discussions I have had with business partners since that writing, I felt compelled to address one of my all time favorites: The claims that I am involved in a Pyramid Scheme.
For any of you that

Yesterday, I was blessed to be able to speak with a group of network marketers that were attending a presentation put together by a friend of mine. While the point of my input was focused on marketing of their business and more specifically tapping into the power of social media, it got me to thinking.
There I was in a room full of busy people all at different points in their journey to financial freedom. Some were contemplating starting a network marketing business, while others had achieved varying levels of success. The common link is

There are very few of us who has a child were running around pretending to be salesmen. We may have pretended to be cops, robbers, doctors, cowboys, etc but not a sales person. Furthermore there were very few of us that sitting in a high school counselor’s office exclaiming that we wanted to become sales professionals. To make matters worse, many of us grew up with the perception that being in sales was somehow a bad thing, or that sales people could not be trusted.
The real truth of the matter is

While I am an advocate of business in general, the benefits of capitalism, Network Marketing and Direct Selling, there are often misleading opportunities. True business of any kind takes time, effort and planning to achieve success. True wealth creation and financial independence does not happen overnight and if by some miracle it does, in most [...]

As many of you know I picked up the classic “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” and began reading with a new perspective on the process. For any of you that have read this must read classic you may recall that very close to the beginning Stephen R.

However, in the process of

This is something that I felt compelled to write for one simple reason. All too often I am working with people new to the Network Marketing profession that missed the fact that they are now in sales. After some discussion what is discovered is that they

Unless you have been hiding under a rock somewhere you are well aware of the fact that our country and much of the world are having significant challenges with the economy. Combined with these challenges are the losses of thousands upon thousands of jobs.
If you happen to be one of those affected by the loss of a job, let me say that I am sorry for your loss and the challenges that it will present. However, if you are willing to
