Came across some interesting stats that i wanted to share with you...last year, Stanford University's tuition and room and board for one year was almost $40,000. And, the average American annual income is a bit under $36,000!!! Read that again! Mind-boggling right? In my introductory post, I asked what was wrong with showing others how to make (for starters) an extra $2,000-5,000/mth. with a part-time business in network marketing? You see, when you jump out at someone and tell them how they can make millions (or $50,000/mth.), not only is it not real to them, it actually scares the daylights out of them (there's a whole thing here about people not feeling they "deserve" that kind of success, but we are keeping this simple for now!). But....think about a family that is even 25%, or 50% above the average income.....making say $45,000-55,000 a year, with two kids....THEY CAN, AND WILL SEE, how a nwm business offers a way to KEEP THEIR JOB (security), and, with a few hours a week of consistent "work", and a modest monthly investment, make an extra $25,000-60,000 next year...how does that sound to them? How about the higher level income family who makes that "magical" $100,000/year working very hard at it, while paying an average of 35% to Uncle Sam, and still staring at that dreaded college tuition in the upcoming years? These prospects already are "theoretically" successful, and probably understand the concept of compounding, geometric progression, and/or leveraging themselves...but they still need more right? They probably already invest into mutual funds (for example) using a solid strategy called dollar cost averaging...basically investing a consistent amount every month (maybe $100) to continue to buy "shares" of the fund regardless of whether it's a bit up or down that month, and over a period of years...voila....you usually have ...a very nice result....In fact, that's EXACTLY how I explain NWM to these higher qualified, already somewhat successful prospects (we're going to discuss WHO you should be prospecting and how you market to them soon)...NWM is just like a mutual fund....invest a certain amount every month in YOUR products and business, speak to some people about this "investment" opportunity, and, in four years, you have a check coming in every month for thousands of dollars, a million dollar asset value business, and....here's the kicker...here are your options...keep that going, increase it, retire and collect for life, heir it or sell it....WOW!!! Hey, Stanford...NO PROBLEM!!!
