Having my own business has been great for me and people ask me about it. In this time of uncertainty, there are a lot of people looking for more financial security.

I recommend a good network marketing business, the best type of a direct selling business. There are a lot of good business reasons for this. In his book, Start Late, Finish Rich, David Bach devotes an entire chapter to creating wealth with a direct selling business. He initially had a negative view of it but after doing his research, he realized that this was a very viable way to create money. Warren Buffett, yes, that Warren Buffett, has bought network marketing businesses because of the boom in their popularity. And this was way before the current economic situation.

What do you get with a good network marketing business? For one thing, it’s a business in a box. You don’t have to start from scratch developing products, marketing materials, stocking inventory, etc. Boom! It’s in there!

You get good training. In network marketing, the person who introduces you to the business won’t become successful unless they help others become successful. It’s in their best interest to get you the best training and mentoring possible.

With network marketing, you can take advantage of two secrets of the wealthy. They are residual income and leverage. Residual Income is where the income continues to come in for the same effort, like an author who receives royalties for her books. You can leverage other people’s efforts. As their business grows, your business grow.

Your success depends on your results not the hours you put in. In the beginning, you will be underpaid. After some success, you will become overpaid as your income increases exponentially.

In these scary, uncertain economic times filled with the specters of layoffs, unemployment and recession, remember that fear itself magnifies the bad things. Many people worry about the pressures on the family budget, how they will pay for college, and being the sandwich generation, how they will they care for their aging parents.

Are these issues real? They can be. They can also be dealt with instead of just feared.

Step 1 is to determine what you want. My goal was lifestyle freedom which includes time freedom and money freedom. Getting to that automatically meant that I had the resources to deal with whatever came up.

Step 2 is determine how you are going to get there. After my research was over, I realized I needed at least one residual income stream. A linear income stream like selling stuff on ebay was not going to make me rich. This also meant starting a home based business. I chose network marketing because it fit my criteria.

Step 3 is implementation. I have chosen the method of online network marketing as my main focus. This allows me to play to my strengths. This is my success formula. I continue to participate in training so that I can help myself and my team succeed.

One benefit that is hardly mentioned in the sales brochures and web sites is the change in your perception of control. If you are fearful, you are automatically placing control outside of yourself. When you start becoming successful in your own business, you automatically start pulling that control within you. This feeling permeates your life. You will feel in control in all other situations as well.

Let others fear, take control now.

Many people who are new to network marketing look for the product. A good product or offering of products are essential for your long term success. A company that has been in business for over 5 years has to have good products to stay in business that long.

People who have been in for a while look at the company. Perhaps they have already had a company fold under them and they want to find something stable in order for them to make money from home.

Professionals look for the right team in the right company. They know that birds of a feather flock together. They look for a team that is growing, positive and has effective training and marketing systems that they can plug into.

If that’s what the pro’s look for, shouldn’t you look for the same thing?

Network Marketing as a whole often does better in bad economic times. As people look at their own situation and determine they want more money, they turn to network marketing. The key is find a team where they offer the support, training and systems that help you succeed.

The question to ask is where do you want to be in the cycle. Those that get in early in the cycle benefit from those that follow. As the stock market goes up and down like a giant roller coaster, more and more jobs will be affected. There was an article in the news that talked about over 159,000 jobs have been lost so far this year.

If you are looking, I would urge you to look and decide before too long.
