Top Seven Questions I Get Asked About My Business

I have been speaking to so many people who are now open to my business model in these changing economic times. I welcome these discussions because it's an opportunity to get rid of the myths and truly lay it out. And every conversation is an opportunity to make a positive impact on the financial portfolio of a person or family by helping them create an income producing asset! Here are some of the most common questions I get.


1. Why does it cost money to sign up?

Because you are investing in a business, not getting a job. It costs thousands of dollars to open up any other type of business. This is an opportunity to build something huge out of nothing for a minimal amount. And for my business you literally EAT your overhead each month. Part of your grocery budget funds your business!


2. Are you trying to make money off me?

No, I'm trying to make money WITH you. I mentor all the people who are on my team. I help them lay out their goals and provide guidance on what it will take to achieve them, including the amount of time per day you need to consistently work on your business. "You are in business for yourself, but not by yourself!"


3. Is it a scam?

We are direct sales with physical life changing, consumable products. This is an exchange of tangible goods and services for money. Have you seen my results and others I share? I would never scam my friends, family and network of associations. I have been on LinkedIn posting and sharing for over four years. I value my professional reputation and would never put it on the line for a scam.


4. Is it a pyramid scheme?

You mean where all the people at the top make all the money, take the long vacations, fly on private jets, and get all the stock options while the people on the bottom work the most for the least amount and get 2-3 weeks of vacation a year? Or their options are worthless? Or they see their pension underfunded? Nope!


5. How long before I make money?

I lay out the roadmap for success. However, YOU determine your success. Nothing will ever be handed to you, it’s all up to YOU. This business works if you do. So if you are coachable and willing to follow the roadmap, you have the possibility to start making money and changing others' lives. We have upfront bonuses based on the systems people select to purchase. We have monthly bonuses based on performance. We have incentive trips and contests. And we have residual income in the form of commissions that are paid out every time a customer repeats their order or goes to their personal online store via App or Website to purchase. The compensation plan is the most fair and competitive in the industry.


6. My friend said this doesn’t work.

No, your friend just didn’t DO the work and didn’t have the right support around them. There is no guarantee about this business or any other. But effort, and consistency matter...again just like any other business. Putting up one post a day and praying people order from you isn't building a business that performs and lasts. Also, did you quit dating after the first time you had a bad date? Or did you keep dating until you found the right person?


7. Can I try it for a month and see how I do?

You can….but this is a business, not a job. Businesses take heart, soul, and determination, but they are SO worth it. Rome wasn't built in a day! Think about this. You might have gone to college for four years. When you came out, you had a degree and probably a lot of debt. What if you focused four years on a part time basis truly learning the skills to build a professional network marketing business? You earn as you learn. And after four years, you have something special. You cannot focus on the short term or the quick money. You have to visualize the bigger picture & how this could change your life and others in so many ways. The reward comes from working passionately & not giving up! I am no one special. I just have heart, passion, and drive.
