I am a network marketer and like so many started with big dreams.
I’ve had this dream to work out of my home and to be very successful in the process.
I played it “safe” while raising our children and kept a “real“job. Right wrong or indifferent it was my choice.
I have been a New Construction Realtor for 8 years and when the market took a dive I thought this was the perfect time to vote myself in.
Like many who first start in this business the hype took hold
and I was unsuccessful for 9 months. You don’t know what you don’t know.
However with 9 months of “failure” under my belt I learned alot of what NOT to do.
I was not going to be denied.
I realized I was in the wrong place and I went scouring the net for answer’s.
I knew I needed better information and a better environment.
I went looking for the education I was yearning for.
Fast forward I am now a thriving network marketer because of the on going education and my willingness to charge thru the road blocks.
I love what I do.
I have been feeling the pull of God to lead people, to spread His word for as long as I can remember. I was never confident enough to do so. So I just ignored it.
Network Marketing has provided the platform for me to now follow my call. I am more than willing.
This arena is one big self help playground. I love it.
I not only get to share the lessons I have learned about
“real” marketing, the mechanics of wealth, yes there is mechanic’s to wealth in marketing. I also point people to the same Generic Marketing Training that I still use.
However on top of that I also get to inspire others to look to their source and grow. How darn rewarding this is!
To become successful in this field one must become who they were born to be. To dare to step out to be and do what they see in their heads.
This takes time and perseverance and no one that I know has done it alone. There is a spiritual aspect here and to tap into that and allow it to be your guide is huge!
It all comes together with better information and a better environment.
It’s not the product, the company or the comp plan. It’s YOU!

And if you are in network marketing and want
a *free *book on the mechanic’s of wealth
This book is now included with my $14.95 Package along with
a free month of training or I like to say "mind melt" from my mentor,coach and friend
Joe Schroeder.
Peace & Bless,

Joann,
I love your mindset. I checked out your website, and am nibbling at the hook. :)
What company did you build your business with? Or are you solely a coach? Because of my love for helping people I have consider becoming a life success coach. I really like Shad Helmstetter and have considered enrolling in his program.
My hangup is that I know that I know that I know the products/company/science I represent is something that our slowly chronically dying world needs. I don’t want to abandon the mission God set before me in order to search out one that is more rewarding to my ego. Does that make sense?
I am looking for balance. I want to empower people to regain their health, and I want to empower people to achieve their financial dreams too. My problem is I can’t turn loose of the ‘little guy’ who struggles to find money at the end of the month just so they can support their health… even if they can’t get over their conceptions of network marketing ‘not working for them.’
Anybody else have these struggles?
Sharing Hope,
Dee Dee
