Radha McChristy – April 2021
A grassroots movement of self-employed people working from home is a great solution for the “new economy”. As many realize the value of being able to work from home, or from anywhere they happen to be, network marketing is getting more and more attention. To be able to start a business at almost no cost, to work from anywhere with a flexible schedule that adapts to our needs, to build growing residual income – this is a visionary business model!
In my network marketing business, I offer a listening ear. I serve customers, build relationships, care, and mentor. You know the corner barbershop or salon where people gather and share details of their personal life with the person taking care of their hair? I often feel like I have a “barber shop-like business”.
Network marketing encourages connectedness in a world that often fosters isolation.
The industry of network marketing is evolving. It now offers ethics training, models humanitarian outreach programs, is vastly enhanced by technology, and in many ways is the most natural form of entrepreneurship.
When we love and receive benefits from something, it’s human nature to mention it to others. If it’s a product, others may want to try it too and receive the same benefits. Some will also be inspired to do what we are doing, paying it forward, and earning a commission. Our business grows this way as we work with our network. It is a natural and fantastic product distribution system!
I am living proof that even someone with no previous experience in network marketing can build a large and successful global business from home.
I think of my business as not just “network marketing” but as “next-level marketing”, as a vision whose time has come. I help people support their own health, and I help them support the health of others. Many are also earning significant income as a result of being in my network. I’m part of a grassroots movement that shines, now more than ever before, and it’s thriving.
One of the most outstanding things about network marketing is that it gives the average person the ability to build recurring passive income. Which is very hard to come by unless you have lots of money to invest or a best-selling book, song, or movie that continues to earn money!
It offers flexibility and time freedom for parents! It’s a great opportunity for young adults and a way for retired people to earn income and stay connected with others. It can provide a little money that helps or a lot of money that transforms. It comes with great tax advantages. Training is free. Any motivated person can learn how to succeed at it.
As is the case with almost all business owners, our success is not dependent solely on our own activity but also on the activity of others. But why is this concept so often criticized, even vilified, when it comes to network marketing, when every company, corporation, and government works this way?
Independent entrepreneurs working from home, as well as alternative, natural health solutions, tend to be unpopular with the “powers that be”.
Corporate America (including big pharma) has its dreams, and it needs people to work toward those dreams. It uses its influence to campaign against such alternative occupational and health choices in a powerful way. It spends billions and billions to promote and lobby for its own dreams.
It takes strong men and women to persevere. To share the truth about what is possible. To tell the truth about products that work. But I truly believe that for many people, it’s a better way!
Having a network marketing business takes work, especially in the beginning, but gets easier over time. It can be work done part-time, full-time, or in spare time. It can provide greater financial stability with just an extra $200-$500 a month, or it can help us have more freedom or to realize some of our dreams.
For many of us who are willing to learn the simple principles, spend the time, leverage the resources we are given, and improve our emotional resilience, it can be a perfect solution!
