What is the verdict on internet nework marketing?
I have scoured the forum for posts and topics on network marketing and I seem to be getting mixed reviews across the board. The people who are commenting generally fall into one of five categories:
The first one is the marketer who knows little to nothing about network marketing and is inquiring about the industry as a whole or a specific aspect of the industry.
The second is the marketer who tried network marketing once upon a time and for whatever reason, whether its failed attempts or the company shutting it's doors or whatever, they have become rigidly inflexible to the idea of network marketing and don't miss a chance to spit on the reputation of the industry.
The third is the successful network marketer who has seen results and takes every opportunity to sing the praises of the network marketing industry.
The fourth is the marketer who has never actually tried network marketing but has had their views colored by the failures of those who have dropped out of the industry. These types also never miss an opportunity to spit on the reputation of the network marketing industry interestingly enough.
The fifth is the marketer who also never actually tried network marketing but has had their views colored by the achievements of successful people in the industry. These types are the polar opposites of the fourth category in virtually every way. They also never miss a chance to sing the praises of the network marketing industry as well.
I raise this point because I am a network marketer (I belong to the third category) and I am finding it difficult to get a baseline reading on what the predominant views are of network marketing to the internet marketer.
There have been ENORMOUS changes to the strategy that successful network marketers employ in their businesses and see results far sooner than they did in the past. Me personally, I feel that a savvy internet marketer can take advantage of this marketing strategy, by building a team of networkers WHO ARE ALSO SAVVY IMers, and can even pursue a venture that is completely unrelated to network marketing at the same time, if they choose to.
I say all that to say this, if you are an IMer I would like to hear your POV on network marketing, and more importantly how you arrived there...
