Network marketing has an very high failure rate. There are many factors this happens; one factor to look at is that people come into the business with crazy expectations.
They believed whatever hyped up claims they were sold. They honestly think that if they recruit a bevvy of people, then those recruits will go out and do the same. With this equation, the team would be huge and, of course, in the end everyone will be mega rich (for doing very little). Then they wake up from the dream.
Of course, when things don’t work out, they look for something to blame. Sometimes they blame themselves, but usually they either blame the company, or they simply blame the whole industry.
If they had they been properly educated in the first place, all of this bad feeling could have been avoided. They should have gone into it with more realistic expectations.
When reality strikes, it become apparent that this business is not going to give the big expected payday right away. A person should expect to wait for at least a few years. Of course, most of the work you do at the beginning could be for little or no pay. But this is the work you must do to get the payday later.
Joining a network marketing company can still be a great option, but you will have to accept that for the first few months and possibly the first couple of years, you will need to have an income expectation of little to none.
This work, which is invested in the future, will enable you to reap great rewards later on when the residual income comes in. At that point, you may find you are earning far more money than the amount of work you put in would justify. That’s the true payoff…but it takes time.
