Hi everyone, I’m glad your taking the time to read my story. I’m hoping that you can relate to it. If not, then thats ok. But if you’re reading this, more than likely you have your challenges in network marketing like the rest of us network marketers. And if you are looking to get into network marketing, It’s the greatest industry to get into for the average person although there are these challenges.

You probably heard these stories many times of being raised to get a great education so you can get a stable job with great benefits. Well, I’m no exception.

As a matter of fact, I remember as a freshman in school, we had assemblies just about every week. One Assembly comes to mind. There were these guys who had PHDs that came to give us “pep talk”.

Come to find out, at one point in their lives, these guys were homeless. Now this really confused me. I didn’t understand how you can have a PHD and be homeless.

Well anyways, I did what my teachers and parents told me, despite what I saw as a freshman. I got my degree and certifications, and ended up making minimum wage doing phone support.

Don’t you think there’s something wrong with that picture?

Anyways, I quite that job and found another job working for a University?

I was so happy because it was just 5 minutes from my job so I use to get to work early and leave late.

One one problem. I didn’t last no more than 9 months there. How odd can that be?

What’s even worse was It took me 7 months to find another job and on top of that my unemployment was running out. Not a great place to be ya think?

You know when you get to the point where you don’t know where tomorrow brings, you get to thinking that there’s gotta be a better way.

Well you know what, there’s definitely is, and this is where my entrepreneur journey began!

THE DEBUT TO NETWORK MARKETING

It was 2007, I’ve been working in IT (Information Technology) at the school district for 5 years now, and although it is a decent time I was still up for being laid off. The bad thing about it is that they have been talking about lay offs ever since I got there. Scary thing to think about!

Anyways, I was always up for looking for something to invest in. I had started my own business fixing computers which wasn’t going so well and I had invested in a couple of homes whic
