Network Marketing - A Hobby or A Business?
Posted by Reyn | August 26, 2008
As confusing as it can be, some distributors consider their network marketing business as a hobby.
Sure, you do it outside your full-time job and you do it because you want to, but it does not justify the thought of having this half-hearted mentality.
Joining network marketing is considered a business, and business must be treated like one, not hobby.
I’ve heard someone saying, “You know what? It’s more like a hobby to me. I do it just to get some extra money.” Well, then it is a business! Business is defined as all activities engaged in or caused to be engaged in with the object of financial gain, benefit or advantage, direct or indirect.
Network marketing beginners easily distorted their view towards this business as the sign-up fee is generally small. For about less than $200, you can actually join most of network marketing companies. Comparing with brick-and-mortar businesses, this is definitely looks like a joke.
One obvious symptom of this pitfall is lack of commitment. They usually very easy to make excuses not to start marketing right now and do not feel it as a must. They say that they will do it if they can spare some time, but that time never come.
It’s not that you don’t have time, but it’s that you don’t make time for it. In the history of network marketing, I’ve never heard anyone just happened to be successful.
All I know is that they committed specific time, money and determination in order to reach the pinnacle of network marketing.
Let’s say you pay $100,000 for entering the company. Will you do it seriously? Will you MAKE time for it? Of course you will.
Listen carefully – it all boils down to this.
If you treat your network marketing business like a hobby, it will pay you like a hobby. But if you treat it like a million dollar investment, it will pay you like one.

Could not agree more - You’ve gotta work at it - Too many people are not prepared to and that is why we have such a high failure rate in this business.
