Looking Beyond the Paycheck
Welcome to this week’s episode of the Industry Insider!
First off, what do we even mean by “a business like this?” In a nutshell, what we’re talking about is:
- An online business
- A home business where you can build the organization you want
- An opportunity to build a framework for mutual success
- Not traditional multi-level marketing or an affiliate program
Often, people start businesses like this because they want to make money, but there are other incredible benefits, too.
Don’t get us wrong, we’ve found that the money is great! In fact, it is life changing, life-saving, and transformational, almost like gaining a superpower— especially when you have never had money before.
In fact, Shane might argue that having money is more valuable than having the ability to fly. 😊
But there are even more benefits that you can find in this type of business! Here they are.
It’s Not All About Money: It’s About Friendship, Support, and More
We have built great friendships through this community from all walks of life, from all around the world!
These wonderful people share our values and ideas. This business provides us a rare opportunity to connect with so many people who have similar values and ideals. So, instead of talking about the news, the weather, and other boring topics, this industry’s conversation revolves around success, possibilities, bigger and more exciting outcomes!
So, if you hate hearing people groan on about their grumpy boss, then this business is something that you’ll enjoy. Every day, we get a lot of positive messages, rarely any negative ones, from the people in our industry!
Here at Born to Prosper, we prioritize good leadership and provide a platform for growth. In some companies, your contributions will never be properly acknowledged. For example, when Shane joined his first “business like this” he experienced recognition and positivity for the very first time. He had never had encouragement or positivity in school or in previous jobs. In this business, you can experience the same positivity and recognition and also provide it to others. This is a big deal—it might seem small, but it is actually one of the biggest ways your life will improve!
Direct sales is a huge industry because so many people are committed to growth. So many people want the stability of being detached from the economy.
Aside from this, there aren’t that many readily-available platforms that allow people to translate their willingness to succeed into income, recognition, and the other benefits we’ve discussed. So, if you haven’t yet taken the leap, we encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity!
