I Want it, and I Want it Now!


If you join a network marketing company with a product and comp plan you love, the potential to earn that oft-cited six-figure income is yours for the taking.  However, I will be so bold as to say that the vast majority of these people will not do so.

I am approaching the two-year mark working my business.  I have made observations along the way of some things that, unfortunately, a large percentage of Affiliates with my company – and reps with most network marketing companies – have in common.

They want to earn a lot of money to improve their life – NOW, not in months or years.  And, they do not want to actually work, but expect the money to fall in their lap.

Those in network marketing who expect to earn money without putting in the effort might just as well buy a lottery ticket.  Sorry folks, but no one is going to hand you a pile of money.  From the time we were children, we have been told that if we want something, we must earn it. 

My company, Xpress Healthcare, sells discount savings plans.  Our plans offer discounts on health and dental care, pet care, legal services, prescriptions, roadside assistance and much more.  You noticed I said we “sell” these plans.  We do not give them away, and people do not come looking for us to beg us to allow them to purchase the plans.  There are many ways of selling them, but it does all come down to sales.

The best way for Xpress Healthcare affiliates to earn a great deal of money is by 1) growing a large team; and 2) selling our plans to large groups and businesses.  I have had too many team members to count say they are joining to sell to businesses – Business to Business, B to B. 

Our founders built our company to sell our memberships in mass quantities.  They have provided us with myriad tools and resources to enable us to do so.  However, no matter how many tools and resources are available, no one can sell to large organizations or companies without dedicating lots of time, building relationships, talking to people about what we have to offer them, and just plain hard work - lots of it.

There is a lot of money to be made for someone interested in selling memberships to groups, but
no matter what, it is based on hard work.  There is nothing stopping anyone from becoming an affiliate with us and earning six figures a year by selling to groups.  It comes down to how much time someone is willing to put in – and for how long they are willing to work for it. 

Even those who start earning money quickly often give up, because their income is not growing as fast as they think it should.  I believe that two to five years is not a long time to work a business with the potential to earn enough money to retire.

I am using Xpress Healthcare only as an example.  Nearly every company has a product or service they are selling, and every single one of them requires long-term effort.  All businesses in network marketing have the same challenge when it comes to finding good quality team members. 

To earn a six-figure income, all anyone needs to do is work hard and stick with it for as long as it takes.  I’ll repeat that last part – for as long as it takes!  I am willing.  Are you?
