I just got off the phone with an old friend who moved out the the BC coast a few years back. As a lot of you know, I was on facebook spreading the word about this site and I contacted him. After coming and reading what I was up to he immediately asked me for my number.

After exchanging pleasantries and catching up on where we are both at and what we have been doing with our lives, he asked me to explain what it was I am doing here. I told him what I have as a vision and what I hope to accomplish by this. I think he was a little surprised but also very supportive.

He offered some insight that made me really start thinking. As I mentioned before, I want this to be a completely interactive experience and today was the first of hopefully many experiences from which I and you will learn from. He told me, "why focus on small MLM companies where the guy at the top makes money? Why not get alligned with larger items and become a contract sales agent for that product?"

It made perfect sense! Thank you Glenn, I found the conversation very helpful. For where I am at right now, only making $14/hr and no real means to get to meet these companies and learn about these product lines, I will stick, for now, with what I have. I am by no means closing the door on the idea. I may come back to it later and in the meantime I will research it as much as I possibly can. Glenn Also agreed to email me a basic explanation of what we discussed. I will add the email once I have received it for all to read.

I would also like to comment on the reference made to MLM businesses. When Glenn and I were discussing this, we both agreed that MLM businesses are not necessarily what we would persue for the long term, they do serve a purpose. The MLM system really works for some people and there has been instances where people have made a lot of money. In fact, I mentioned that Robert Kiyosaki and Donald Trump both have said that if they were starting out new, they would start a network marketing company. So in conclusion I do not want to say that network marketing companies are bad, they serve their purpose and can create some extra streams of residual income. Just make sure whatever one you go with, that it is something you can stand behind and support. People can see right through someone who doesn't beleive in what they represent!
