I was having a conversation with my father. He is a part-time Realtor who just found out that his office is having to institute a desk fee in order to keep the business afloat.
But during this conversation, he started talking about how bad the economy is, how hardly anyone has any money, and how things simply do not look good.
And I politely disagreed.
I believe there are plenty of buyers out there. And as network marketers and home based business entrepreneurs, there is a greater opportunity as people attempt to figure out how to survive the mess.
There Are Buyers
Earlier this month, Frank Kern grossed around $4,000,000 in one day. He was selling a product that people wanted. In fact, people where chomping at the bit to get their hands on one of the limited amounts of the nearly $2,000 product.
His product met a need that people had, and people bought.
There are plenty of products that meet needs or fill desires. And people will pay for these products. If you have one, sell it. There are buyers out there. It might take some work to find them. I’ll say it again: It might take some WORK to find them. But once you find them, it will pay off.
Just like it paid off for Frank Kern.
The Opportunity Exists
As a network marketer, I work on finding the balance between being excited and seeming “hype”-ish. Yes, I’m excited about what I do but, at the same time, I realize that I am meeting a need or filling a desire, just as I would when I sell a product.
People are hurting. Corporate America is failing more people each day. And having a business is one way people can either stabalize their situation or correct it altogether.
If someone had just an extra $500 or $1,000 coming in each month, there would be opportunity to survive or plan for survival in case a layoff happens at their job (notice I’m talking about job workers here, or part-time network marketers). Yes, $500 – $1,000 does not go far but it helps.
It is about meeting their needs or filling their desire. They have a need to build financial stability into their lives and, through a home business, they can do it. They may desire more out of life, and your home business is the key to their desires.
So I don’t buy into “doom and gloom.” Buyers exist and the ability to build a successful network marekting business exist in the current “economic problems.” If you know how to handle the situation, and do things the right way, you can make the most of the opportunity.
