The Principles That Govern Network Marketing Are Superior To Those That Govern Traditional Business
Why Network Marketing? What makes it so unique? White traditional business delivers products to end consumers via a variety of third party steps such as distributors, wholesalers, and retailers the network marketing business model delivers products directly to the end consumer's doorstep from the manufacturing facility. Taking out all the middle men brings down total cost. Also by removing the middle men you remove geographic barriers allowing you to do business anywhere people are willing to listen, look, and buy. Are you starting to understand why the principles that govern this business model are superior. Lets keep going. Lets talk about opportunity in business. A traditional company is built in the shape of a pyramid with CEOs and presidents at the top all the way down through management and eventually to the large group of employees. The people at the top make most of the money and the people at the bottom do most the work. This is not a the bad part; on the contrary it is natural. The bad part is the lack of opportunity. The bottom line staff/employees don't have the same opportunity to make money as the top level management. In fact there is a scarcity of money. The more money the staff makes the less there is left for the Management. True scarcity with no opportunity at all. The next step up is the Commission pay model. This model is superior because the upper level management has an incentive in the successful of the regular bottom level salesman. The more sales they make the more money it makes both parties. Everyone is paid based on their actual production and so nobody can break the principle and therefore people are rewarded correctly. Opportunity is much stronger because of two things. First, abundance is much more present because the people at the top want the people to succeed even though there can still be a strong feeling of scarcity between same level sales-reps. Second, Each person is responsible for their own results and so by working harder you can make more money. However there is still a fundamental flaw. Though opportunity exists for success it is not equal. A real-estate agent does not have the same opportunity as a real-estate broker because the realtor can not hire other realtors. The same is true for the insurance agent and for every other commission paid sales rep. Though there may be an opportunity for advancement and management positions, the opportunity will never be equal to the people at the top. What will eventually happen to the successful sales rep? He/she will go out and start their own company in order to have that equal opportunity. Now the sales-rep has become the competition to the company that trained & coached him. Network marketing is the answer to all these problems. Abundance is real because the marketplace is endless (or at least infinity larger than the traditional marketplace). Opportunity not only exists because you get paid on your own efforts but it is also equal because the compensation plans that exist in this industry allow for equal opportunity for everyone. People at the bottom of the pyramid can make more than the people at the top. In fact it happens a lot. I sometimes explain it to people this way: Imagine buying a franchise. Now imagine that your franchise could sell it's product in every country around the world. Now imagine that your franchise had no employees at all. Now imagine that your franchise didn't handle any customer service at all. Now imagine that the complete upfront cost of your franchise is only between $500 to $1500 one time. Now imagine that the ongoing overhead expense of your franchise is only between $100 to $300 each month. Now imagine that you got a cut out of the production of every other franchise the company sells. Now imagine that you could stop working anytime after only your first 6 months to a year and not only would you continue to get a check but it continues to get bigger each month even without you. Now what you have is a Network Marketing Business. Article Directory: http://www.articledashboard.com Jacob S. Paulsen is a Network Marketing Professional in addition to being a great business owner.
