The latest funny SMS reads: “I met a lady and when I asked her out, she agreed, saying she’d like to go somewhere expensive, so I took her to a petrol station.”

With that in mind, a topical question to be asking people is “Do you know anyone who could do with some extra money in their pocket each week?”

Invariably you will get a reply such as “It’s not one of those pyramid-selling things, is it?”

In fact, it’s often an invitation to consider participating in a global commercial phenomenon that rewards hard work and dedication to giving the customer outstanding value for money — network marketing (also known as MLM, for multi-level marketing).

So what value does this book bring to the network marketing industry?

The authors know their stuff and as a handbook for people who have decided to ‘take the plunge’ and join an MLM business, it’s well written in simple-to-understand language, is indexed logically, and comes loaded with a lot of success-focused tips and thoughts.

But that’s not all! It includes famous quotes, reader notes pages, and a functional checklist that all facilitate its use as a personalised handbook on the way to success.

It’s a pity, however, that the introduction skims over the pyramid-selling issue, e.g. “pyramid schemes are illegal and reputable network marketing companies are not”. A lot of good people miss out on legitimate opportunities simply through ignorance, and I would like to see a little more on this in the next edition.

There could also be a little more focus on franchising, which shares some key similarities with network marketing, although network marketing has far lower risk factors and lesser obligations.

On the other hand, the book does a good job in supplementing potential new distributors’ own perceptions gained from literature, conversations and Opportunity Meetings that they attend, as these are a common element in the MLM recruiting process.

Further, there is real value in the book’s ability to act as a helper to new and inexperienced MLMers, for despite the much-used phrase “in business for yourself, not by yourself” success really does come from within and the book’s simplicity and logic are ideal for new recruits.

But what about the conventional marketer, you ask?

If you’re a corporate marketer, this book won’t give you the analytical detail that will enable you to judge whether network marketing is a viable distribution model for your business, and so may be considered too ‘lightweight’ in that context.

That, however, would be a narrow view as the book’s value to corporate marketers is its insights to the real-world dynamics of the network marketing model, which, when properly applied, facilitates a product-endorsement style of vendor-customer relationship that most marketers can only dream of.

In modern terms, network marketing is the highest level of viral marketing, because its whole premise is based on sellers also being happy consumers, i.e. nobody should consider becoming a distributor unless they are already a happy consumer! (I use the word consumer, rather than customer, because products need to be regularly consumed, otherwise distributors will be forever seeking new buyers for the products and have no time left to build their business.)

In summary, the book contains a whole lot of smart stuff that could provide the key to your next successful campaign — and to its obvious target market, the new distributor looking for a guiding light, yes, it is well worth reading!

Sometimes in the industry people forget that the Network Marketing has two avenues for making an income. Some people even ignore it completely.

Today the focus in Network Marketing seems heavily one sided, with many people solely focusing on recruiting new people to build a bigger downline and treating the product as a sort of sideline to the main attraction. Network Marketing is founded on the principles of residual income. The easiest way to get a regular monthly income is to focus some of your time on selling your products and getting recurring sales from your auto shipment program. You would be crazy to ignore this opportunity to increase your monthly income.

If you get $10 from each product you sell and you get 100 customers signed up to receive your a monthly autoship that means you’re going to see a monthly income of $1000. The beauty of this sale is you only need to make it once. As long as they sign up to the autoship program you don’t have to worry about visiting them next month to see if they want more again. The responsibility is on them to stop it!

This is where Kim Klaver comes in. She has been successful in both recruiting people into her business and making record product sales.
