Your Independence Day
We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.
Are you exercising your right to pursue happiness? We all want to be happy and that can mean different things to different people. The one thing that holds true for everyone no matter what your goal is, is this, only you can make it happen. What do you want independence from? Is it financial woes, a bad relationship, poor health?
Circumstances don't change by magic. Your circumstances don't change because you wish they would. Your circumstances don't change because of other people's opinions of how things should be. You are responsible for your circumstances. Do unexpected thing happen? Of course. Are some things out of your control? Sometimes yes.
What the really important part is how you react. What you learn. How you apply those lessons. Today while you're having hamburgs and hotdogs or watching the fireworks with friends and family, think about your independence, think about your pursuit of happiness.
Network Marketing and the No Selling Myth
When looking at network marketing opportunity sites you've probably seen the no selling pitch. Here's the truth there is selling involved. Any legitimate network marketing company makes money through retail sales. Retail sales are product purchases made by people who are NOT involved in the business, they are customers. If you don't want to do any selling don't join a network marketing company.
That being said...most people are not comfortable selling. You probably have a picture in your head of what a salesman looks and acts like. Salesman are pushy, they only care about the sale, they'll do anything to get the sale, they don't really care about me. I know there's salesman out there that are exactly like that but you really can't assume that all salesman are. If you have a product that's really helping you or people you know or even don't know, would you recommend that product?
If some one was looking for something that you happened to offer, wouldn't you offer it? If you could fulfill a need for some one wouldn't you want to fulfill it? That's where a great product or product line comes in (that includes service based businesses). If you're unsure about selling you better have a product you believe in 110%. Products don't sell themselves but their benefits can. You can give some one a sample, tell a story about what the product has done for you. Show them some testimonials, it doesn't have to high pressure stuff!
The bottom line is yes there is selling involved but the relationship is important, your desire to help is important, fulfilling a need is important. If your heart and head are in the right place you'll do just fine.
