Some people might come across this training and not really understand what is network marketing. So, I’ll explain for those who don’t already know.

I am sure everyone understands what a franchise is. McDonalds is a very well known franchise and there are literally thousands of others. I refer you to www.franchise.com for more franchises, and you can see how much they cost also. In America over the last 50 years, Franchising has positively revolutionized the economy, and it has also reached every other continent. It is a ready made business for everyone and is attractive because someone else has already proven that the product is marketable. So, the new owner of a franchise repeats what others before him or her have done.

Network Marketing is really a simplified form of franchising, with the main difference being that in franchising this “ready made” business can only be purchased at a high price from the franchising head office. Therefore, a franchise is not affordable for the majority of people. In addition, a franchisee can not multiply him or her self and the product.

There is a powerful advantage in Network Marketing because the start up investment is very low, and quite often the only start up cost is the products themselves. The other huge advantage is that network marketers have the right to pass on this proven ready-made business to other people who would also like to secure their future by starting their own business.

In the United States, during the early nineties, network marketing started a home business revolution and has brought millions of people into a secure new future. This is one of the reasons why America is the leading economic power of the world – many people are running a global company from their own home and have become self-employed with their own business. Europe and other continents are rapidly following the US, and will continue to do so throughout the future.

There are Four Main Criteria to a Reputable Network Marketing Business

1) The marketing (or compensation plan) allows for multiplication (or duplication) of a business, and makes it as easy as possible for all new starters and business partners to become an entrepreneur.

2) The product is highly attractive. Network Marketing would not work if the products were similar to what you can buy in the supermarket. This is why network marketing products are usually of a higher quality than other products.

3) A business management system ( on the internet these days) making it easy for business partners to handle and reducing administration as much as possible. This frees up time for business partners so they have more time to spend with their partners and customers.

4) A training system to inform about marketing plans, products and most importantly, the personal development of business partners.

Today people are searching for independence, freedom and a secure future, and they can have this in a network marketing company, which is a global family all with the same vision. I trust that I have answered the question what is network marketing,?
