Recession-Proof Financial Independence
January 28, 2010! A New Year and Decade will officially begin its second month on Monday, February 1, and many of us have contemplated the steps we will take to make this a new era unlike the last decade in every respect. No repeat of market crashes and attacks on the homeland; And no devoted below-market service to employers who reciprocate with pink slips while they and members of their inner circles party on exotic islands fully costumed in Togas and residing in $7,000 curtained villas with gold plated four legged, antique bath tub.
'No! No more of that for me' must be the words of anyone who was gainfully employed for the last 5 years, but now isn't. Anyone who faithfully carried out the employment duties assigned to him/her and did not receive the promised reward. Anyone who met debt obligations (especially credit cards) only to learn that the interest rate was hiked to twice and sometimes thrice the original rate without a reasonable explanation or the opportunity to negotiate it down. No! No more.

My name is Tony; I'm a thirty year veteran of professional sales in real estate and mortgage financing with a few years spent in the insurance industry and magazine sales in my early sales career. Throughout the thirty-eight years I spent in sales, there were very few instances when I did not think that financial independence would define my retirement years. When your chosen profession is to serve people and through your actions, the lives of those you serve are enriched via home ownership, you seldom give a second thought or have any doubt that financial independence would be a reality.
Unless it's thirty eight years later and you haven't achieved it yet due to events beyond your control. Events like a recession! Please don't misread my sentiments here. I said financial independence, which may have different meanings to different people. Here is what it means to me. Financial Independence: The state of freedom from debt obligations; Ownership of sufficient enough resources do make dependency on any other source for support (financial or otherwise) a non-existent condition. As I write this article, the latter does not apply to my position. Having establish that fact, I knew that my only course of action would be to change that condition. That work has already begun.

Residuals: defined as payments made to a performer for each rerun of taped or film television material in which he or she has appeared. Let's apply the term residuals to professional sales, as in the case of life insurance agents: Work performed today is compensated for today and continues (at a reduced rate) for many future years, and in some cases, for a person's life. Sales made today establish qualification to receive compensation in future years. Residuals are very real in network marketing! Once the qualifying requirements are met, payments continue to be made for years in your future. That's a fact!

Multi-level Marketing
The rapid growth of one global direct marketing network
Multi-level marketing is a business model where salespersons, consultants, distributors, and even franchise owners and independent owners work in harmony to increase the sales of the product, on a commission basis. This is more like a franchise arrangement where the sales of the product depend on the combined effort of each franchise and regional manager. There are multiple levels of people receiving commissions. Usually there are seven or more levels. Multilevel marketing is basically a combination of franchise and direct marketing.
Global MLMs are huge income producers
This concept started in 1980s when most of the companies started handling the stocking and distribution issues and started compensating all the individuals involved. This increased the interest of each member in promoting sales due to the chance of earning bonuses and since then the Multilevel Marketing companies have assumed the responsibility of taking orders, shipping goods, and paying revenue. Things became easier with the transition to Internet. Product promotion, advertising and sales were made online and hence, the whole process began to be known as online MLM.
What's the difference between a MLM and a Marketing Network?
There are various MLM compensations plans. According to the uni-level or stairway breakaway plans there are two types of distributors involved; managers and non-managers. According to the matrix plans, the width of each level in a distributor’s group is regulated. In binary plans, the limit of each level’s width has two legs. Commission was paid when both the legs reached a specific target. In the elevator scheme, the distributors pay splits after a certain number of units have been paid.
Get the Real Story!
The commissions are paid in two ways, the first is when the commission is paid only if the product is sold and the second one involves paying commission even if the customer just signed-up, it doesn’t require the customer to buy anything. Because of the second method illegitimate MLM or illegal pyramid schemes began to rise. The intermediate members used to make proxy customer sign-ups to receive commission and they used to tempt the participant to buy more products than they can be sold.
The Book that got my Attention!
Fortunately, most of these businesses present themselves as legal, but precautions must still be taken to avoid those unscrupulous behaviors which persist. It is better to approach businesses that follow the first method of commission, where it’s compulsory to make a sale and not just recruit a customer. Here money isn’t paid for customer sign-up at all. MLM marketing is being practiced all over the United States and in hundreds of other countries.
The method of attracting customers to you. Take a look!
In 1979, Amway Corporation was accused of price fixing. They exaggerated sales claims, while their distributors sold the products at a minimum price. After that, the FTC issued a warning to all multi-level companies that operated with commission structures which were was based on recruiting and not sales.
In 2006, all the business sellers including MLM organizations were asked to provide customers with thorough information according to the Business Opportunity Rule introduced by the Federal Trade Commission, so as to save them from deception. Before that many motivating programs were started with the intention of hiding the truth. Such programs were known as cult programs.
A crash course in copy writing!
Laws have been made stronger and as a consequence, pyramid schemes are banned in most countries. Under current systems all newly hired salespeople have to bare the cost of initial training and material. Some of them even have to buy a sizable amount of inventory. To test the legality of MLM marketing, the 70% rule is being implemented. The members are stopped from over-loading so as to increase their commission. Only when seventy percent of the inventory is sold, can an order be made for new material. For the most part MLMs are legitimate businesses operating within the law.
