Advertising the distribution of products and services at home, working with doctors and wholesale sales of goods and services provide an opportunity for a person to quickly receive cash income. The creation of a structure by distributors who use these products and tell people about them, and also duplicate this process, creates the basis for long-term and permanent income. With a few exceptions, such as doctors, most people entering MLM network marketing from other professions currently prefer to have a passive recurring income from creating their own structure, rather than promoting products and also receive compensation. Even those people who came into our business without knowing anything, but with the ability to sell products, like, for example, physical education teachers at school Steve and Janet Baak, often inevitably come to the conclusion that it is expedient to create their own structure. And they are not alone.
Janet Rush learned about MLM NETWORK MARKETING in November 1979. “At the time, I had a four-year-old daughter, Sarah, and a two-year-old son, Clayton. I was invited to a product presentation. On the same day, I decided to work for the company. However, the representative of this company told me that she was going to leave her and I would have to call her senior manager. I called this woman several times, leaving messages each time. Finally she called me back and asked me not to disturb her anymore. She told me that the company had just entered the market and that sales force recruitment had been suspended until next March. I can go to the church where she works to get a form to fill out - she didn't want to waste time on me.
I started working for the company when I was pregnant with my daughter Ashley. We had no money - I was tired of need, tired of always asking my husband to give me at least a little money. I never thought about financial independence, I just wanted to earn some money. I was 30 years old, I did not want to live the remaining years in poverty. My husband had no desire to achieve financial prosperity, and I, having three children, did not have the necessary freedom. I couldn't make money leaving my children unattended. I called my mother and asked her for money to buy a starter pack. However, she did not support me, believing that working from home was not for me. She said that I needed to "stay at home, be a mother and live on my husband's money." Her reaction to my request irritated me. Then I called her mother, my grandmother, who said, “Honey, I will be happy to invest in you. I'm going to bet on your future."
"That day I realized that I had chosen the right means to achieve success. It seemed perfect to me. This is a real business that gave me the opportunity to be at home with the children and sell products without leaving home. At the time, I didn't even know what network marketing was. The day I joined the company, my local upline left and the next line manager lived in California. In the US South, I was the only sales agent for our company. No one provided me with training, support, seminars and presentations. I was going to be as skilled a salesperson as possible. At my very first product presentation at my home, 20 people came to me, and I sold $75 worth of products. Wow! After all, there was a person who bought products from me! I was seized with excitement, pleasant excitement. I made several appointments. And my business started to grow. When I showed the products to people who came to my house, a line of people lined up in the corridor, wanting to buy them. Some even wondered if they could also go into this business with me and sell products as well.
So, I didn't even have a clue about that. So I told them that they couldn't work with me and that I was the only sales person for these products in Dallas. Can you imagine it? I had no idea about recruiting. However, I arranged more meetings than I was able to hold. It took about half a year of work in this business before I decided to get acquainted with a small amount of educational material about the activities of the company, which lay somewhere at the bottom of a box in my garage. This brochure said that my company was in the network business and that I needed to recruit other people to promote the products. Wow! And I didn't know that. I didn't even remember the names of many of those who wanted to work with me! I'm still trying to find these people!" We imagined this picture very vividly - just think about it, she rummages through the garage and
