Exploring Ways to Be Self-Employed

I have been known to take some risks in my career and while I’ve made my share of mistakes along the way, for the most part, I don’t regret my decisions. There is a saying, “the bigger the risks, the bigger the rewards.” You can research the history of some of the most successful people in the world and I’m sure you will read about some huge risks they took to get where they are today.

Awhile ago I wrote a post about network marketing. Ever since then I have been considering it for myself and as I searched around for products that I felt I could relate to and be enthusiastic enough to promote, nothing really resonated with me so I put the idea on the back burner once again. Recently, through an interview I conducted on my fitness blog, I came across an opportunity that revolves around fitness.

I have been struggling with weight issues most of my life and this opportunity just clicked with me as I have the chance to lose weight and make money. That is a winning combination for me and I’m sure for others as well. The company I signed up with is called Beachbody.

My Goals for Network Marketing

I have no experience with network marketing so this is going to be a challenge in terms of learning more about the business model and actually growing the business. The part I already like about the business is that you work as a team. The person you sign up under (your coach) will not succeed unless you do, therefore it is an ongoing team effort. Quite a change of pace for those of us who are used to working alone.

My primary goal is to use the products and lose weight. The way the system works is that you are accountable for getting fit. How else can you share your enthusiasm about the products and the business if you don’t work it yourself? I think being held accountable in this way is a huge motivating factor. After all, what is the point of setting a goal or even running a business if you are not motivated about doing it every day.

My Marketing Goals

I plan on marketing my new Beachbody business through many of the same methods I market my other internet marketing web sites. I plan on using most if not all of the following:

• Article Marketing
• Twitter
• Blog
• Videos
• Paid advertising (PPC, Banner Ads)

Stay tuned for future posts about my progress with network marketing. As you may or may not know, not many people succeed at it. Some people are happy earning a few hundred per week and some people go on to make 6-figures. There are also those who give up before making anything. Right now, I just want to learn all that I can and document my success and mistakes here.

If you are interested in network marketing, enjoy fitness, want to lose weight and earn money from sharing your success, then sign up below. I will introduce you to my coach (who is awesome) and we can do this together.
