When you joined your MLM company you were probably led to believe that by joining the company as a new distributor you now owned your own business.  In reality, as an MLM distributor you are really little more than a straight commission salesperson.  In this role you are left at the mercy of outside forces with no control over the decisions being made by the company you represent.  If the owners decide to shut it down or change the direction of their business, you can’t do anything about it.

So, what’s my point?  Well, the point is that the MLM you represent is not your business, but it is an important piece of the business that you should be building, which is as Mike Dillard calls it, “You, Inc.”. 

If you were to study the top one half of one percent of the top money earners in the network marketing industry, you would notice a common theme. Most of these leaders are primarily focused on building their own “Brand” as leader and building up tangible assets and systems that they can plug into the promotion of whatever company they decide to join.  They are not solely at the mercy of the decisions made by their company’s owners.  Are you? The assets that these business owners build have real measurable value, a sharp contrast to the distributor who simply builds their downline thinking they are a business owner.

To your success,
