The Business The Business ------------ You will always get sceptical people. These people normally make assumptions and comments without thinking what they say. Some very good examples of this are: Lord Kelvin a Scientist in Great Britain who was president of the England Royal Society between 1890 and 1895 made the following three statements: 1. “Radio has no future” 2. “X-Rays are a hoax” 3. “Heavier than air flying machines are impossible” It is no wonder that the Italians invented the radio because the British were too busy listening to Kelvin. And it is a good thing that the Wright brothers did not have the radio to hear what he was saying. We get this everywhere. As soon as somebody starts something new there will always be sceptics who try to run the idea down. The industry I am involved in is also bombarded with scepticism by people who do not know what they are talking about and who do not bother to do their homework. This industry has a brilliant compensation plan. It uses normal people like you and me to market products or services (relax I am not selling anything and will not expect you to do so either) and get paid on successful business. The problem with this is still that you get paid when you work. So let’s see what you can do to change that. Let us assume that a company is willing to pay me R60.00 for marketing a service. The clients will be paying R125 per month for this service and for my effort I get paid R60.00 per month on the premium of each of the clients I enrolled for the service? Sounds great, that means that if I get 100 clients to join the business I will earn R6,000/month. But why do all the work yourself. I am not always very keen on working hard. I prefer to work smart. So I will go to my neighbour, friends, family and people who need money and tell them: “Hey, if you get people to subscribe to this service I will pay you R50.00 per month on the premium of each client you subscribe.” Why would I want to give my money away? We call this leverage. Let’s say I enter into a deal like that with only 10 people (my agents) and those people (my agents) each get 100 people to subscribe to the service. That means that we will now have in total 1010 people who subscribed to the service. I make R10 per month profit on each person and my “agents” each make R50/month on their clients. So each of them gets R5,000/month for their effort and I get R10,100 for my effort. But look closely, I was the clever one. My effort to return ratio was much better than that of my agents. I only recruited 10 agents and THEY did all the work! Each of them recruited 100 clients, not me. In the example above I was prepared to give away more than 80% of my profit to other people but in the end I received back much more. If you give you will receive! What will happen next is that one or two of those agents of mine will see what I am doing and they will decide to split the R50.00 they get with their friends and family. So I get R60.00 per person from the company for my marketing efforts, I decided to give away R50.00 to my agents who do the work and now my agent decides to give away R30.00 of his R50.00 to the people he gets to do the work for him. He will now also be leveraging the time of others to his advantage. You can see that all of this still comes from the original R60.00 which I received from the company I am doing the work for. I call this wealth distribution. I call this the best marketing concept the world has ever seen. Unfortunately some sceptics call it pyramid schemes. This is unfortunately where 60% of the people fall out of the bus and I truly hope that you will investigate the matter further before you just blindly follow the pre conceived ideas of those uninformed sceptics. I do not want to elaborate on that topic here so I prepared a separate document at www.earnextra.co.za/pyramid for you to read so that you can see what the difference between pyramid schemes and network marketing is. By the way, if people are so afraid to join a “scheme” why do they all belong to a medical aid scheme? You can also view a letter from an attorney stating that everything about this business is legal. Go to http://www.earnextra.co.za/legal If the “know it alls” around us know it all, why are they not filthy rich? Be careful from whom you take advice. Could your uncle Bob who services cars in his driveway for a living give you advice on becoming financially free? He might give you wonderful advice on running a “service the car in the driveway business”, but obviously he will not be able to give you advice on how to be able to live the lifestyle of your choice. If you need advice rather ask somebody who has made it and who is living a lifestyle of choice. Although this business has to do with marketing you can rest assured there are no products involved. BIG BONUS. I tried those businesses as well and I think the worst thing one can do to earn a living is to go from door to door to sell products or to sell products to your friends which are overly expensive. So do not worry, we do not sell anything. If you do not have any experience you need not worry about that either. Our company provides training and the best news is that you do not really need to know anything more about marketing than you currently know to make a success. You might ask “but what do I know about marketing at the moment?” All of us are marketing products on a daily basis, we just do not realise it. When was the last time you recommended a good movie to a friend? Or a nice restaurant you went to, or the wine you had? We all do it almost on a daily basis. Imagine if you go out lunch time to test drive your dream car. Guess what you will be doing when you get back to work? Yes, you will be marketing it to all your colleagues and the company who sells it will not pay you a cent. All of us are TELLING other people about a great service we get, we are not SELLING it. Those who are marketing fundies will of course obtain financial freedom much quicker because they can attract more people. But even if you go slow and you only get one new member into your business each month you will still be able to make a success. With the techniques we will teach you will also be able to attract a lot of clients to your business.
