Why does public media mute the network marketing home business?

It hurts too much to larf at these home business ideas…no wonder home business opportunity seekers are confused and real options so limited.

The big question is why does public media mute the network marketing home business for earning part-time income?

First, let’s look at what one TV broadcast had to say recently about how to earn some extra income.
Second, we’ll take a look at the network marketing industry to help polish this old institution and public image. Some would say it’s tarnished and I would agree because of the high failure rate. But I also totally believe it can and must be fixed in order to return to its grassroots capitalism foundation and provide real income for real people.


So what does larf mean? You’re not sure whether to laugh or to cry or both...could be from frustration, desperation or just hard to grasp the improbability of it all.

I listen to CNN quite a bit…even as a Canadian. Two of my favorite TV hosts are Larry King and Anderson Cooper. Recently, working from home, eating my lunch, watching the latest news, one commentary caught my attention.
The woman anchor was talking with an expert about work from home jobs as part-time side jobs people could do while under-employed or waiting for employment.

Now, I’m not using my imagination this time but there were some pretty creative ideas tossed out to comfort those looking for extra money from home. How about:

  • dog walking…rich people still spend money on pets..$17 an hour
  • neighborhood handy-man…can you replace some soles on shoes, straps on purses, a pressure ring on dishwasher, a plug on a car for a non-mechanic…I guess fees are variable here or maybe try bartering..although a fresh loaf of bread won’t pay a credit card company
  • teach a personal hobby to others…macrame / photo montage/ raw food cuisine, anyone
  • start a day care facility to look after young children…a host of guidelines in Canada
  • start a house cleaning or house-sitting service for busy, rich people again


So none of these caught my idea of acceptable return on time or investment or longevity so I checked the website recommended at CareerBuilding.com…just the first page was enough.


It made me stop and wonder about how many people actually look at these kinds of sites for job opportunities. Here’s a few things I read:
80% or more of work at home jobs were scams or rip-offs…need to check out thoroughly
Some of the top 10 work at home jobs included:

  • internet programs for wealth creation
  • get paid surveys online from $40 to $250 an hour
  • make money selling adult toys
  • major dating company seeks online hosts fo $200 a week
  • get paid to assemble products and crafts
  • complete simple data entry and online forms


Now two things struck me:
All these “opportunities” were getting paid by the hour or by the number of forms or surveys completed. Work so much.. get paid so much. No work...no money. There were only wages...no profits and not residual cent anywhere.

Does anyone know or care about the difference between linear and residual income?

Most of these “opportunities” would also involve active marketing once products and services were ready to go, such as setting up a replicated website, posting sales copy, testing it, sending out press releases, attracting traffic and potential customers. Who will help you with this?


Then another ha-ha thought struck me!

A network marketing home business is actually very different from a work at home job.

In a real business you have to start at the beginning, invest a small amount of capital, and work for huge returns that come back into your pocket. Public media somehow bypasses the network marketing industry as a viable home business to make some serious money with an outlay of as small as $40 a month that qualify you for long-term profits.


There needs to be a serious counterbalance to public information here and I believe it needs to start within the industry itself.

  • Let’s first polish up our public persona, develop more highly successful people to ask as role models.
  • Let’s eliminate the complexity of getting involved.
  • Let’s standardize the training so everyone can do it at low-cost.
  • Let’s practice the basic key concepts of leverage and duplication with a simple process..I call it the straight-line home business.

Let’s return the people to the grassroots of an equal democratic opportunity. Let’s not worry about walking dogs or cleaning washrooms.

What works best for a network marketing home business...special builder or simple blueprint

What works best for a network marketing home business..a special magnetic builder or simple democratic blueprint?

Nothing else comes close to the potential of a network marketing home business for all the right reasons...leverage professional expertise, duplication, residual income cashflow, success, retirement security, lifetime independence. Once a networker always a networker because we don’t easily accept the status quo and dream of possibilities for our children and grandchildren.


I am still reaching for my dream aspirations but there is nothing finer than to sit and talk about potential and prosperity and what I can do_______ with time and money freedom. Sure beats complaining and worrying about economic circumstances that are beyond our control.

So it bothers me to see this industry over the years develop a dominant hierarchy as all institutions tend to do. A bit of calcification and "barnaclization" has set into this ship of state build on simple routines. And now it is the upper crust, the captains, if you wish, that are setting the standards for success based on their experiences, partnerships, resources and their money to buy massive advertising.

No wonder public perception keeps a wary eye on a home business model where only 3 to 5% are as successful as they wish. Would you start a home business with those odds..I hope not.

Another statistic is that 85% of successful networkers are former small business owners who are well experienced with standard business principles of marketing and communication which they can now transfer into a multiple-level arena and make multiple profits all the way to the bank.

Along with well-honed business skills, they can probably be described as having magnetic profiles capable of drawing others into their sphere of influence. Some “gurus” actually use the term “biological components” and label successful people as Demonstrators of Higher Value or DOVH’s.

Other regular people are termed as Demonstrators of Lower Value or DOLV’s. Can you believe this terminology is really happening and continues to appeal to those “alpha’ recruiters?

I don’t know about you but this definitely smacks of some kind of discrimination or inequality in an enterprise built on the foundation of democracy and freedom.

So here are some tips for DOVH’S to build and duplicate their home business. It is called “passing the test” and seems like a lot of physical components to bring the structure together.. (Susan Boyle need not apply)
  • be fit and healthy..shows more self-respect
  • be a good dresser..no fashion sense conveys a lack of social intelligence
  • be confident..self-controlled able to maintain and stare down eye contact
  • be cheerful with a ready smile and sense of humor..no negative vibes
  • be aware of natural attention or validation by others as a leader..stay unaffected ..
  • be the first to lead interactions and conversations…speak with volume and confidence

Now here are two real issues…

First, for too long now these human dynamics by top leadership rulers in this industry have kept the majority of people eating humble pie believing they need to be super models. In order to achieve, they are offered whole mentorship programs, modules, training seminars and more out-of-pocket expenses. Not only does the average networker suffer trying to meet unrealistic expectations but we can’t sponsor others to do this leadership attraction model.


Second, the network marketing home business is the only true democratic home business where equality of opportunity is based on a simple marketing plan. It is duplicating a simple business system, a one page blueprint, that makes 97% of networkers able to do and believe in.

And, for goodness sakes, it doesn’t matter your condition (or objection), irrespective of race, gender, age, size or shape, education, training, status, poor or rich, white color, blue collar, executive, student, or teacher.

Everyone has equality of opportunity because everyone can share a simple blueprint for business duplication.


This is the real founding principle of the great grassroots industry.
