I have heard most of my life that... "You only get what You pay for!" So I ask now, "Is that really true?"
Gifts?
How about a gift? How much did You pay for it? This is where it gets tricky! Usually a gift comes from someone You have built a relationship with... which means that You invested time and ??? into them. So how do you figure those costs? (There are costs to building relationships!) Many of us put it as a "free" gift. But if it is "free", does that mean it is of little or no value to us? (Get what you pay for) NO! Those gifts can be priceless us, even if it was a trinket!
Second Hand...
What about those "Great" deals You get at the local yard sale? Did You get what you paid for there? (That new $100 item, that you gave ten bucks for?) In these cases, someone else paid the price for you! Does that mean it (New in the box) is still junk?
Free Advice?
When it comes to free advice, is there any difference? I have heard about it, the same thing... You get what you pay for... (implied that it is useless or garbage). Yet that is totally discounting all the price that the teacher ("free" advice giver) has paid to get the advice to YOU.
I am not saying that all "free" advice is good! The quality of advice depends on the price of the gathering of that advice. Some of the best free training/advice has been past down through the ages, from parent to child... for free! ( No monetary cost to the child) Is all that training a waste? (Discounting all the "Wives Tales" and manipulative lies...) Still, Just because it is "free" does not mean that it is nothing!
I could go into a lot of other like situations or things to show how "You get what You pay for", is not very accurate. To make the statement more accurate, I would say something like- "You get what was put into it". This would take more into account all that was invested into it before it was past on.
I hope this (free mlm information) has been of value to YOU... I know that I, myself, will use that saying a lot less!
Thanks for the interest,

NETWORK MARKETING? ARE YOU TRYING TO FAIL?
I KNOW THAT YOU ARE NOT TRYING TO FAIL!! But are you sabotaging Your own efforts? Are You being taught how to fail... instead of successful network marketing?
Don't take me the wrong way! I'm not trying to make fun, but I really do see people doing this to their businesses all the time. It is not your fault! Network marketing is not a natural gift! Taught right, you can learn to do network marketing properly.(There is free mlm training.) You can learn this from the comfort of your own home or office. If you continue reading, I will show you some dos and do not s of network marketing. By using these, every day, it usually will help you in other aspects of life as well.
HERE ARE A FEW THINGS TO DO
WARM MARKETS AND NETWORK MARKETING
Make a list of your neighbors, family and friends. This list is called your warm market or circle of influence. Now if you want to be successful at network marketing, leave the people on this list alone! (they are YOUR personal support group) You don't want them to be a statistic on the 97% failure list, for they are not the sales staff that you need. (Later, if they come to YOU and are qualified, then you may train/enlist them!) Network marketing is sales, marketing and relationship building, rolled into one. NOT just blindly "sharing" your product to whomever you come in contact with. Successful network marketing is a learn-able business, that with some courses/mentoring you can become very proficient at. (Again, can be through free mlm training) Without proper marketing, network marketing is just another scam.
TEACHING YOU THESE BASICS
Get some marketing courses, online is usually most affordable, (should be free) that teaches modern network marketing methods. The network marketing courses and/or free mlm training, should cover things like knowing your targeted market, prospecting outside your warm market, websites, capture pages, blogs, ads, etc. These tools are necessary in most all businesses being that the internet is the largest marketplace in the World. To win in this business, you've got to know the rules. Yes, this does take some initiative, but in my book, well worth the trouble.
NETWORK MARKETING IS SALES
Network marketing is about selling a product/service through company reps. Purchasing company produced marketing materials to hand out, (expensive AND unproductive) makes you the consumer not the seller. Being your own consumer does not work! Likewise with purchasing leads list, ads, fliers or going to hotel / restaurant meetings. If you don't know what you are really selling and to whom you are selling to, you are wasting your efforts. Researching network marketing terms and techniques will probably give you a lot of advantages over the rep that signed you up, since knowledge is power! (Get the free mlm training first, before joining anything... This saves time AND money!)
FADS IN NETWORK MARKETING LEADS TO TROUBLE
I think you can see that the "old" network marketing "fads" lead to failure. The reason I call them "fads", is that they only had limited success during a few decades. (The general public wasn't so jaded then and the economy wasn't so tight). Fads only work for a time, because they are not founded on real marketing practices. Real network marketing is marketing and relations building. (Which every good, free mlm training should include.) This hasn't changed throughout the years. The successful basics are the same. Though some network marketing people will tell you that the "old fads" still works today, "Just look at "super rep" they're making a killing, they are millionaires!" Again, "flash-in-the-pans", "fly-by-nights", "LUCKY", "exceptions-to-the-rules" and a lot of other terms that have limited success. NO network marketing company, that wants to stay around for the duration uses those "fads", for their real marketing plan!!
NETWORK MARKETING CAN BE VERY PROFITABLE
As long as integrity throughout the business is being stressed, and a great product/service being offered, the network marketing company stands a good chance to succeed and remain highly profitable.
I know that I have just skimmed over some of the broad terms involving network marketing, not getting into the specifics of each. Each topic could easily be a long paper in itself.
Until next time, I hope You will use this as some of that free mlm training that I was talking about earlier... and let it boost your time and efforts in your network marketing research.
Thanks for your interest!

Is Paying For, Otherwise Free Information And Training, In Our/Your Best Interest?
Paying for information is good, if that information is really rare. But what about information that has been around for decades or centuries? With thousands of books written on it... Is it still that valuable? (What should be, after this long, "common sense"?) Good news! You should be able to get YOUR business training for FREE! Even if Your company doesn't give it...
Franchise Training
Now I am not talking about franchise training, like what McDonalds does... that is different, yet is it? When You purchase a franchise from them, isn't the training included? How to best operate Your/Their Business? For BOTH of Your interests? Fore, if You don't make money, will they?
How About Big Business?
So, if in the big business world, marketing training comes with the purchased business, why not in "small" or "at home" businesses? Why should WE have to find our own??? Shouldn't the "company" want their representatives to be successful? After all, wouldn't YOUR success help their success?
Free Training Of Reps
Keeping in mind, that if free training of reps (sales-personnel) is good for the company, WHY is it that so many companies have no REAL training at all?? Could it be that they don't know what they are doing? Are they just cutting corners at YOUR expense? Or, are they just plain using you? And is there a way that YOU can tell what is good training for Your company?
Business Relationship Training
Here is the "good' news... Most successful business training is alike! Basically the same system... Starting with relationship and personal development training. These two are at the heart of most businesses, whether big or small!
Free Training... The Good News
Can You get this training for free? More good news! Yes, You can! This training used to be more common, and is coming back! (Some groups out there are taking advantage and charging, THOUSANDS of dollars, to give out what You can get free!) Like right here, I am passing on to you, what many have been charged for... Want more? For FREE?
Do The Research!
Following these articles and the suggestions they contain, cost you what? A little of Your time, yet how much would it have cost you in money... from a "guru"?
A Judgment Call...
Now You be the "judge", Is it really worth the price?
