Stage 2, Day 17:
Decided to pass on the network marketing offer. I was supposed to meet the couple Tuesday but decided not to waste my time or theirs any further. I’ve been involved in the industry before and there are just too many factors that one has no control over when you get right down to it. I don’t see network marketing or ride sharing as entrepreneurial ventures; although, I believe those with entrepreneurial spirits can succeed at them. I just don’t want to move from a job, into another industry where someone gets to decide how much they want to pay me for my skill, time, and effort. MLM at the end of the day is just overhyped and glorified sales people pushing a product and a vision for the owners and shareholders who are raking in all the real money in my opinion. There are plenty other reasons I passed as well due to personal experience and I’m at least thankful that this experience has once and for all helped me make up my mind on rather or not I’m willing to jump back into network/affiliate marketing, and I’m not.
If I were simply looking for just some side hustle like I was years ago then fine but I’m looking into creating an actual income generation asset which I can truly make passive within 4 years, that allows me to control my own time and income potential. I don’t want anyone setting commission caps for me or telling me my efforts are only worth so much per transaction, I’ll be the judge of that.
