Heard the hype about network marketing? It’s true…and false. You probably already know that network marketing has an super high failure rate. The number one reason is that people who get involved usually don’t think the term w-o-r-k is involved. And that’s their first mistake.

It seems that they have swallowed the hype. They really believe that all they need to do is recruit a bunch of people and those people will go out and recruit more and so on and so on. Of course, in the end everyone will become wealth through the work of others. Naturally, this is usually far from the truth.

With this expectation, things don’t usually work out. Then come the blame game. They blame themselves, the company, the whole darn industry.

This is where the value of proper up-front education comes in. This negativity and poor attitude will be avoided if the recruit is told the truth, even if it isn’t so peachy-keen sounding. At least they’d know what to expect and feel less disappointed.

A network marketing business is going to take awhile to pay-off. If you understand that and resolve to be in it for the long haul, you’ll be better off. Don’t think the riches will come for nothing.

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 is the groundwork you must do to get the big payday in the long-term plan. If you understand it and do the work, you’ll be far further along than most newbie network marketers and this could make all the difference in the world.
