This past Friday (June 24, 2011), this  “Special Supplement to The Wall Street Journal by Direct Selling News” appeared in 1.2 million copies of the prestigious business bible.

The cover of the handsomely put together piece states,

“In 2010, direct selling companies generated over $125 billion in revenue in 150 countries through more than 75 million men and women who are changing lives serving others. This is the story of direct selling.”

More than worth-the-read, this is required reading for anyone already in or interested in Network Marketing Direct Sales.

Millions of jobs lost, many may never return.
Even as the economy recovers, more people could face years out of work

Back a bit, Eric Worre, creator and star of NetworkMarketingPro.com, did this video below titled: Become a Network Marketing Pro. Solution for the Jobs Crisis.

Eric referenced a piece on MSNBC.com titled: Millions of jobs lost, many may never return. by Christopher S. Rugaber of The Associated PressHere’s the beginning of the article with a link to the complete piece.

WASHINGTON — Fewer construction workers will be needed. Don’t expect as many interior designers or advertising copywriters, either. Retailers will get by with leaner staffs.

The economy is strengthening. But millions of jobs lost in the recession could be gone for good.

And unlike in past recessions, jobs in the beleaguered manufacturing sector aren’t the only ones likely lost forever. What sets the Great Recession apart is the variety of jobs that may not return.

That helps explain why economists think it will take at least five years for the economy to regain the 8.2 million jobs wiped out by the recession — longer than in any other recovery since World War II.

It means that even as the economy strengthens, more Americans could face years out of work. Already, the percentage of the labor force unemployed for six months or longer is 4.3 percent. That’s the highest rate on records dating to 1948.

In this video CNBC’s popular Mad Money host Jim Cramer, reports that the direct selling model is going “great guns,” adding it could be the best way to sell goods in the Third World.

Cramer previously interviewed Rick Goings, CEO of Tupperware, who told him that women around the world had signed up in droves to be sales representatives for Tupperware products. The executive added that in this evironment, direct selling adds a personal touch and is more effective than traditional advertising. Being as people tend to listen more to testimonals rather than advertisements. Cramer thinks the direct selling model could be the best way to sell goods in the developing world.

Despite the good news for direct sellers, Cramer complained that these kinds of companies have never “gotten their due from Wall Street.” While people have acted as if the business model is “bogus”, Cramer thinks it’s actually fabulous.

“I think it’s time to recognize that the direct sales model works and works well,” Cramer said.

Here’s the short (03:13) video.

Why do most people get involved in Network Marketing? For the money— pure & simple. But more & more, money alone isn’t enough. It’s money and…

More time to spend with
friends, family and yourself.

In short, the balance between life & work even a successful part-time Network Marketing business offers.

Please watch this short (10 minute) TED.com video from Nigel Marsh: “How to make work-life balance work”

An idea who’s time has come? Truly, an idea who’s time never really left. Yet as Mr. Marsh points out, there are very (very) few corporations willing and able to effectively incorporate these increasingly sought after human values into their work-a-day worlds.

But in Network Marketing, the freedom to balance your life and work is a fundamental benefit.

The burning or burned out corporate executive… the working mom who longs to be home with her kids… the 20-somethings who aren’t buying into having to give up your life to make a living… even the successful small business owner who’s painfully realizing his business owns him… all of these people and many more are turning in increasing numbers to Network Marketing as not only “the last bastion of free-enterprise,” but as the one place where they can earn the income they need to enjoy the balanced and fulfilling lifestyle they desire, dream of and deserve.

Network Marketing isn’t the only way.
We just don’t know a better one.

PS. If you are not yet a Ted.com “freak,” please consider becoming so. TED IS the Web at it’s best!

We originally posted this back on December 8 and just realized we’d made a mistake and had it set to “Private,” so… nobody could see it. Duh <smile>. We’re re-posting it here & now.

There’s a huge difference between Network Marketing and pyramid schemes. Here’s the truth.
By Michael L. Sheffield

____________________

Question: Some friends continue to try to recruit me into Network Marketing deals that seem like some type of money game or pyramid. Other friends tell me they’re illegal and I’ll get into trouble. How do I know what’s legal and legitimate?

Answer: To help you understand what Network Marketing is, I must first explain what it isn’t.

Network Marketing isn’t a pyramid scheme.

Pyramids are programs similar to chain letters where people just invest money based on the promise that other people will put in money that will filtrate back to them and somehow, they’ll get rich. A pyramid is strictly a money game and has no basis in real commerce. Normally, there’s no product involved at all, just money changing hands. Modern-day pyramids may have a product, but it’s clearly there just to disguise the money game.

Network Marketing is a legitimate business. First, it’s based on providing people with real, legitimate products they need and want at a fair price. While some people do buy cheap Motrin online make a lot of money through Network Marketing, their financial benefit is always the result of their own dedicated efforts in building an organization that sells real products and services.

Pyramids are illegal and are based on taking advantage of people. For a person to actually make money in a pyramid scheme, someone else has to lose money. But in Network Marketing, each person can multiply his or her efforts, skills and talents by helping others be successful.

Network Marketing has proved itself as part of the new economy and a preferred way to do business here and around the world.

Network Marketing isn’t about taking advantage of your friends and relatives.
Only a few years ago, Network Marketing meant retailing to, and sponsoring people from, your “warm list” of prospects. Although sharing the products or services and the opportunity with people you know is still the basic foundation of the business, today we see more people using sophisticated marketing techniques such as the Internet, conference calling and other long-distance sponsoring techniques to extend their network across the country and around the world.

Network Marketing isn’t a get-rich-quick scheme.
Of course some people do make large amounts of money very quickly. Many would say those people are lucky. But success in Networking isn’t based on luck. (Unfortunately, money won’t sprout wings and fly into your bank account no matter what someone has promised you.) Success in Network Marketing is based on following some very basic yet dynamic principles.

Now, let’s discuss what network marketing is.

Network Marketing is a serious business for serious people.

It’s a proven system where the design, creation and expense the corporate team has gone through becomes a road map for your own success. Just follow the simple, proven and duplicable system that the good companies provide.

The real key is this: Network Marketing is all about leverage.

You can leverage your time and increase the number of hours of work effort on which you can be paid by sponsoring other people and earning a small income on their efforts. Andrew Carnegie, who created one of the world’s greatest fortunes, said “I would rather make 1 percent on the efforts of 100 people than 100 percent on my own efforts.” This very basic concept is the cornerstone of Network Marketing.

For example, most successful people building a Network Marketing business do so in an organized method. They work a few dedicated hours each week, with each hour of effort serving as a building block for their long-term business growth. Then they sponsor other people and teach those people how to sell the company product and sponsor others who duplicate the process.

By helping the people you personally sponsor to sponsor others, you duplicate yourself. As this process continues, you create compound growth that can lead to hundreds or even thousands of people coming into your business. You leverage your time by helping others be successful and earn an income from all their efforts.

Network Marketing, has no big capital requirements, no geographical limitations, no minimum quotas required and no special education or skills needed.

Network Marketing is a low-overhead, home-based business that can actually offer many of the tax advantages associated with owning your own business.

Network Marketing is a people-to-people business that can significantly expand your circle of friends. It’s a business that enables you to travel and have fun as well as enjoy the lifestyle that extra income can provide.

Increased life expectancy, decreased pensions and Social Security benefits add to the challenge.

In the January-February AARP buy cheap Motilium online Bulletin, CEO A. Barry Rand, wrote his Where We Stand column about “Facing the Challenge of Turning 65.” In the piece Rand pointed out that the first of the 78 million Baby Boomers began turning 65 on January 1, 2011 and they will adding another 65 year old to their numbers every eight seconds— more than 10,000 every day— for the next 18 years. By the time the last of the Boomers turns 65 in 2029, the 65+ population of the United States will have doubled what it is today.

“Add to that,” Rand wrote, “the fact that people turning 65 today can expect to live another 18 to 20 years, and the implications are staggering.”

Although as he points out, Boomers are generally optimistic about their future and “see their best years ahead of them,” millions of Americans are struggling. The first boomers are reaching 65 at a time when:

• their retirement savings have been decimated by the Great Recession;

• their pensions are vanishing;

• the value of their homes has decreased substantially;

• workers are still losing their jobs, and finding new work is a struggle;

• health care costs are rising and more doctors are refusing to see Medicare patients because of an unstable and flawed payment system; and

• the president’s fiscal commission is proposing to cut Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid — and shift more of the costs to people 65-plus — when they need it most.

It’s said that a little bit of knowledge is a dangerous thing. There is clearly some truth to that remark and it often shows up when people learn a little more about MLM Network Marketing. Two “cynical” questions consistently arise:

Are the people at the top making all of the money?

Do the people who get in at the beginning make all or most of the money?

Although as we said, these questions are “cynical,” for many people they are sincere & serious and need to be answered. One of the best people we know to do the answering is the creator of the Brilliant Compensation presentation, Tim Sales. Tim is a multi-million-dollar income earner who has become one of the preeminent trainers in the business. He is also one of our most pragmatic champions who explanations are clear & concise. Here’s Tim on a short 7 minute video with his answers to the questions above:

If you’re open to learning about an alternative to your current employment, please know MLM Network Marketing is not the ONLY answer. It’s just that we don’t know of a better one. Check it out. It may be what you’ve been looking for your entire life— and there will never be a better time than now.

Six unemployed residents of St. Louis have vastly different backgrounds. But they all share one goal:

Finding a job.

In St. Louis, the labor market and unemployment rate are very similar to the rest of the nation. NPR begins a year-long journey, following these residents in their quest for work.

Nationwide, there are more than 14 million people out of work, and most economists say it will be years before the country returns to full employment. In terms of the labor market and the unemployment rate, St. Louis, Mo., is very similar to rest of the nation.

To read the full story by Tamara Keith that aired on NPR’s All Things Considered, Monday, January 17, click this link: Finding The Path Toward Employment In St. Louis. A complete transcript is also available on the site.

“As I listened to this broadcast on NPR coming home with my daughter Ele from her Kung Fu class, I felt sick. My heart goes out to these people and the 13,999,994 other men & women out of work in America. I kept asking the car radio (I know, very silly) ‘Do they know about Network Marketing? These are good people. Smart people. Hard working people. They deserve a chance. Please… how can I let them know about the possibility to get their lives back with Network Marketing?”
— John Milton Fogg

Excerpted from Robert Kiyosaki’s terrific book, The Business of the 21st Century.

Tax Advantages— and the Lesson They Teach
People who are brand-new to Network Marketing are often quite surprised to learn about the significant tax advantages from having your own home-based business.

Most people have at least a vague idea that the rich enjoy all sorts of tax advantages that they themselves do not, but since they have lived their entire lives in the E [Employee] quadrant, they typically have no concept of what those advantages are or how they actually work. Therefore, people are often shocked to realize that they, too, can enjoy those very same tax advantages and put significant amounts of money in their pockets from the very first day of their new business.

With recent changes in tax policies and more insurance programs tailored for small businesses and the self-employed, it’s easier than ever before to create your own benefits package that rivals and even surpasses anything the standard big corporations could offer.

By starting a Network Marketing business in your spare time and keeping your regular job, you begin to get the tax advantages of the rich.

A person with a part-time [home] business can take can take more tax deductions than employees do.

____________________

And those deductions Robert is speaking about are not a few dollars here & there. They ARE significant. For most home-based business owners— even working part-time, they amount to a number of thousands of dollars (think $5000 or more). And that’s immediate money, not something you have to wait for.

There has never been a more important time to learn about and be open to the possibilities of Direct Sales MLM Network Marketing. It is The NEW American Dream.

A recent piece on YahooNews by Associated Press Business Writer Pallavi Gogoi, asked, “Where are the jobs?” and answered, “For many companies, overseas.” (Click the title link to read the entire story. Here’s an excerpt.)

Corporate profits are up. Stock prices are up. So why isn’t anyone hiring?

Actually, many American companies are — just maybe not in your town. They’re hiring overseas, where sales are surging and the pipeline of orders is fat.

More than half of the 15,000 people that Caterpillar Inc. has hired this year were outside the U.S. UPS is also hiring at a faster clip overseas. For both companies, sales in international markets are growing at least twice as fast as domestically.

The trend helps explain why unemployment remains high in the United States, edging up to 9.8 percent last month, even though companies are performing well: All but 4 percent of the top 500 U.S. corporations reported profits this year, and the stock market is close to its highest point since the 2008 financial meltdown.

But the jobs are going elsewhere. The Economic Policy Institute, a Washington think tank, says American companies have created 1.4 million jobs overseas this year, compared with less than 1 million in the U.S. The additional 1.4 million jobs would have lowered the U.S. unemployment rate to 8.9 percent, says Robert Scott, the institute’s senior international economist…
