Job Search: Can Network Marketing
be a Successful Career Option?  
by Joseph Lee  - 

To many people...the words network marketing...mlm...direct selling...evoke all kinds of thoughts and images in their mind? Are you one of these people? When you hear these words, does your mind automatically recoil with such thoughts....

· "Don't want to get involved in another one please!" · "I've wasted so much time for nothing!" · "It's all hype and not possible!" · "The company I was with went bust and left me with a whole lot of inventory!"

Granted...there are many so-called network marketing business opportunities out there that are illegal pyramid scams or with over-priced and dubious quality products. But there are also a small number of good opportunities that are truly legitimate and rewarding.

A good network marketing business opportunity could be the start of a parallel career. (And a parallel career is here defined as something you start while you still have a job with the end goal of working for yourself).

When you start a network marketing business while you still have a job (as a parallel career), besides the sense of security of a regular paycheck, other benefits include:

·The Opportunity to Meet and Interact with Many People Daily

As network marketing is a numbers game, the more people you talk to the higher are your chances of success.

·Not Dependent on Your Network Marketing Business Income

You have a current job with a regular source of income. Hence, you're not dependent on your network marketing income, at least in the short-term.

·Not Under Pressure to Make Money Quickly

Having a source of employment income means that you'll not be under pressure to make money quickly. But this does not mean that you should not pressure yourself to achieve set goals.

·More Confidence

Getting your regular monthly paycheck and not depending on your network marketing business income gives you more confidence. This will show in your approach and your attitude. Prospects can sense it.

·More Credibility

The fact that you're currently employed gives your words more weight because your prospects realize that you have options and can do without this network marketing income.

Also, network marketing by its nature gives you the flexibility of when to work, where to work from and who to work with. You could choose to allocate 2 nights a week or the weekend to do the business. You could choose to meet your prospects in your home or at your favourite café, and you could choose to share the network marketing opportunity only with people you can get along with. No such choices in a job!

Therefore, if you have no hang-ups about talking to people (including strangers), you're disciplined in setting goals (daily, weekly, monthly, longer-term ones) and you're passionate in the products and company you represent, network marketing is an above-average choice for a parallel career.

From the numerous success testimonies found in monthly magazines and websites of the good network marketing companies, you'll find that those who have made it to the top positions (the so-called Diamond or Platinum ranks) say that they cherish the recognition, respect and freedom their network marketing business has given them. And most of all they are having fun while earning unbelievable incomes. What a lifestyle!
