There Is no Such Thing as a Free Lunch

Posted by H L Hamby | Home Based Travel Agent, Network Marketing, Travel Agent, home business, internet marketing | Wednesday 6 January 2010 3:02 pm
I am sure you have heard the expression: “There is no such thing as a free lunch.” Well it is very true. Especially when it comes to network marketing.

I am also sure you have seen and heard the claims of a lot of recruiting people to join their home based network marketing businesses. Some of them claim that all you have to do is tell your friends and family about the business that you just found and they will jump at the chance to join you. Therefore, you do not have to work, just talk to a few people and you will soon be making more money than you can carry to the bank without hiring help. Well, I am sure that if you joined the business, you soon found out that it was not that easy .

Do not misunderstand me, I am not putting down the Network Marketing (MLM) industry. I think it is probably one of the best business models in use today. At the same time, it is undoubtedly, the most misunderstood and misused business model that exists today. there are people that just want to get everyone to sign up in order to make the bonus paid for recruiting a new distributor into the business, and then they put them on their own to sink or swim. Translated that means, they get rich or build up debt and go broke. Guess what the largest percentage of these people do? Absolutely right, they go broke and wind up with a large debt to pay off. Then the industry has another dissatisfied person telling everyone they talk to that network marketing is really a scam.

When you are looking for a good home  based business to start, the first thing you  need to do is find a business that you like and can promote with confidence and the assurance that you are helping your customers get fair value for the money that they spend with you. The next thing and equally important is to find a sponsor who is willing to work with you to build your business; not only the recruiting side of the network marketing business, but also the actual business of marketing the products or services that the company sells. To me this means that the company markets a product or service the gives the customer value at a fair price.

Then the way to make the business grow is to get started working to promote the products and or services that the company markets. At the same time you should get to work recruiting distributors in order to build a down line of distributors that you can help do the same thing you are doing in order create that residual income that everyone in network marketing is striving to build.

Why are you waiting?

Posted by H L Hamby | Home Based Travel Agent, Network Marketing, home business, internet marketing | Monday 17 August 2009 5:02 pm

Are you waiting for the economy to turn around before you start that business you’ve always wanted?

Now is NOT the time to WAIT!

The sooner you take positive action the faster you’ll be on the road to rising out of the recession

Things are tough for some people right now, and they may be getting even tougher.

But that’s EXACTLY why, today, more than ever, you need something to fall back on in the event that you are laid off, downsized, outsourced, or whatever they call it. The result is the same, you no longer have a pay check and in this economy a slim chance of finding another job to replace the one you just lost. If this has already happened to you, then you know what it is like to have to rely on unemployment and savings. We all know that with prices at the levels they are today, it does not take long to deplete any savings that you have managed to build up. You need an alternative, to help you weather the rough times when they are forced upon you.

 

THAT IS WHY I RECOMMEND STARTING A HOME BASED BUSINESS OF SOME KIND.

 

Hopefully you can get it started and making a profit before you need it to survive. If you do get it started in time it can add to your savings for the rough times if they come, or allow you to indulge in a few luxury items that you have been wishing you could afford.

As I have said before there are several alternatives for a home based business. Some you can get started for free or next to nothing cost wise. Others will require a cash investment. The ones that do require an investment to get started do not necessarily require a lot of up front money. I do realize that what is a small investment to one person, may be a large, almost impossible, sum to someone else. Therefore, you may need someone to lay out the options for you in order to select the best route for you to follow.

That is what I will be glad to help you with. The nice thing is that I do not charge anything for helping you to find out which is the best option for you. You may even decide that you are not suited for a home business of any type, especially at this point in your life. If that is the case I will try to help you decide that for yourself.

Yes I do have a business venture that I believe is one of the best opportunities that you can find today, but I am not trying to hook everyone into a business venture with me. I want the people that do decide to start a business to be successful in whatever they decide to do, whether it is with me or not. This may sound a bit strange, but if I get a lot of people to join me in my business and they do not succeed, then I get a reputation as some one who is just out for a fast buck. In the long run that will do more to defeat me in my business efforts than it will help. Also, if you are not successful and making money in any business that I recommend, I do not make any money, and isn’t making money the reason that anyone starts a business.

Who needs a Plan B?

Posted by H L Hamby | Home Based Travel Agent, Network Marketing, Travel Agent, home business | Saturday 11 July 2009 8:39 pm

I know that you have heard this expression. “Do you have a plan B?” If you have not heard anyone say this, you have not talked to many people that have started a home based business to supplement or replace their primary source of income. Of course the home based business is their plan B. The hope is it will generate enough income, to allow them to afford some of the extras that they would like to have to make their life more pleasant and comfortable. Also, some or all of the people who get involved in a home based business hope that one day it will replace the income they receive from their primary job. This of course would allow them to quit that job, and work at home full time. Some people use the phrase “I fired my boss”.

Whether you are looking for a full or part time home business I might be able to help you find a business that would interest you. Everyone is not suited for all of the home business options that are available. As a matter of fact, a home based business would not work at all for some people. To make a home business work, you absolutely have to have the desire to make it succeed. However, desire is not enough. You also need the discipline to put the work into the business to make it succeed.

Please do not fall for the pitch that some people use to recruit a down line in a network marketing business. (”Anyone can do this, it is not sales, it is just sharing information with your friends and family.” “If you show them this business they will jump at he chance to join you and make you and them rich beyond your wildest dreams.”) Sounds too good to be true doesn’t it? Well in most cases something that sounds too good to be true, probably is. Especially if the pitch is that it does not require any work.

To make any business a success you have to put some work into it. If you put no work into the business you will probably get out of the business what you put into it - NOTHING. So it only stands to reason, the amount of work and effort you put into anything determines the amount of return you receive.

Therefore, if you are not ready to work at least a little to make a home business grow and succeed, do not even start one. If you do start a business of any kind and are not willing to put some work into it, then you will undoubtedly fail, and wind up with nothing but a huge amount of debt for your effort. What happens then? You and everyone you talk to about your experience will be convinced that the whole concept is flawed and only a few lucky people ever make any money. This is the reason so many people have a negative attitude toward home based businesses.

But, if you are willing to work and learn something about marketing and sales, then you stand a chance to make the amount of money equal to the effort you put into building the business. In an upcoming post I will explain a little more in detail how to acquire the skills needed to run a successful home business, without costing you a lot of money, Most of the methods I use are inexpensive down to free. To get started learning these methods just CLICK HERE and join my mailing list. This is one of the free methods.

The Gold Rush of the 21st Century

Posted by H L Hamby | Home Based Travel Agent, Network Marketing, Travel Agent, Uncategorized, home business | Thursday 11 June 2009 4:43 pm

Have you ever wished you could have had a chance to be involved in the gold rushes in North Georgia, California, or Alaska? If you had been able to you might have been rich beyond your wildest dreams. Well, you and I both missed those by being born too late.

Guess what, I have a better gold rush that is happening right now, and you can take part in this gold rush right in your own home. You don’t have to get hot, dirty, and tired or cold, wet, and miserable. You can participate in this gold rush in the comfort of your own air conditioned home or office.

What is this gold rush you might ask? At least I hope that is what you are asking at this moment. If you are not asking that question then you are not interested in joining this gold rush and getting rich, or at least making a good part time income.

As you may know not everyone who joined the gold rushes of past ages got rich. Some made nothing, some made a little money, others made a comfortable living, and others made great fortunes.

That is the same thing that is happening in the gold rush that is taking place today. The only difference is that in today’s gold rush you have more control over the outcome.

There are some people that advertise on the internet, that make it sound like it is so easy to make a fortune over night. Just like in the gold rushes in the 1800’s and early 1900’s. People were told all you have to do is walk down to the river and pick up gold nuggets the size of eggs or larger. There are always people telling you that there is an easy no work way to get rich. I wish that were true.

So what do you have to do to get a good network marketing business.

Sorry, I got distracted; my mind does that quite frequently. So what is this modern day gold rush?

It is a home business run on the internet. It can be one of many business models. The most common are affiliate marketing, and network marketing. I think that both are great. However, I think that network marketing is the best one for building a large business, with a great residual income. Affiliate marketing can be used to pay expenses while you are building your down line in your network marketing company.

There are some people that just do affiliate marketing, and that is fine. You have to find the business model that is right for you.

Why Network Marketing has such a high failure rate

Posted by H L Hamby | Home Based Travel Agent, Network Marketing, home business | Sunday 31 May 2009 2:20 pm

Why do so many people who start network businesses fail in the first few months? A lot of people who start in network marketing get discouraged and quit after a couple of months and most people do not last a year. They get all fired up and excited about the opportunity and think that everyone they know or talk to will feel the same way, once they have an opportunity to tell them about it.

Then reality sets in when they start telling people about this wonderful business that they have found. Some might be slightly interested in starting a business of their own, but a great majority of people today have no desire to start and run their own business. Some of the ones that are interested in starting a business have heard all the negative things about network marketing. The first thing a lot of them say is “yes I know all about network marketing sometimes called Multi Level Marketing or MLM. It is just a pyramid scheme and no one but the top people ever make any money”.

After being turned down by most of the people that they talk to about the business, they get discouraged and decide to give up on trying to build a business. Then they become the next person to spread the word that network marketing is just a scam.

This is why I am setting up this blog and my web site to educate people about network marketing and how it really works. I am in the process, with the help of some people on my team, of writing an eBook that will explain network marketing in detail. This book will also explain why network marketing is not only a legal business model, but probably the best model for someone to get started for a small investment and build a business that suits their needs and comfort level. The business could gross anywhere from $50.00 a month to $50,000.00 a month. It is all up to the individual and how much effort and time that they wish to invest, and what it takes to make them a success in their own mind.

As much as I hate to say it, network marketing is not for everyone. Just like any business or occupation is not suited for everyone in the world. If that were the case we would be in bad shape, because everyone would want to be doing the sane thing and all other fields would be vacant. This is the big reason there is such a high failure rate. People who really do not want to do what is necessary to build a business get involved in a business and soon decide that they really are not interested and quit without ever making any money.
