| Most people have an opinion about Network Marketing or MLM. Many have been involved with companies or known people that might not have been ethical. The image that comes to mind for most is a badly dressed, pushy, door to door salesman that won't take no for an answer or garages full of floor cleaner and "motivational" audio tapes. There are often promises of outrageous amounts of money for almost no work at all. That being said, we happen to know (and be related to) highly successful Multi Level Marketers. It is not a business for everybody. But it is a business for ANYbody. It is one of the few businesses we've seen that requires no special training or knowledge. It really is a level playing field and anyone can take it as far as they'd like to provided they are aligned with a reputable, forward thinking company that has a proven track record. Research How do you check these companies out? Try both the FTC (Federal Trade Commission) and Direct Selling Association Members List. DSA members have pledged to abide by and uphold the provisions of DSA's Code of Ethics which is designed to protect both members of the direct selling field sales force and the ultimate consumer. Each direct selling member company has completed a one-year pending period during which time the company's policies and procedures are reviewed to ensure compliance with the DSA Code and with the laws and regulations that affect direct selling companies. Jumping in Once you've decided the company is legitimate and you're ready to jump in, JUMP! If success does not happen in the first 3 months of signing up, the odds that you will continue with the company or have success is very low. Stay in the groove and do something to help your business everyday. Getting the proper training is very important. Listen to your upline or their upline, or whoever is able to talk to you and ask for help. You need to be self motivated, but are not expected to know everything right away. Brilliant Exchange is a great MLM training website. The owner, Tim Sales, has been in the industry for over 20 years and really knows what he's talking about. You don't have to listen to just your company's training material. All Multi Level Marketing companies work just about the same. Mindset The most important part of the MLM business, or any business, is your mindset. If you are not confident in yourself and the company, you cannot expect to succeed. You do not need to know everything or already be successful to be confident. Confidence comes from inside, not from the outside. Whether it's tapes, yoga, meditation, or exercise, do whatever you need to do to get your mind in the right frame where you are able to allow success to happen.
