If I told you that I had a way to start a business that you could run by remote control, you would think I was crazy.  If I told you that it would take 15 minutes a day, cost under $100 per month and that you never had to mention it to anyone unless they mentioned it first, you would know I was crazy.

Why I Hate Network Marketing

I hate bugging my friends and family.  I hate to trick people.  I hate people who are always trying to sell me something.  I absolutely cannot sell something that I don’t believe in.   I really cannot do high pressure sales.   Aren’t these  exactly the reasons why most of us have a negative view of network, multi level marketing?  How many times have you been approached with get rich quick stories and then strong armed to sign up tonight?  Ugh!!

A Different Perspective

The Remote Control Simple System was developed by a millionaire entrepeneur named Stan Pace.   Stan is a fascinating person who started his first business in his garage.  He built his own exercise equipment and started out as a personal trainer.  The gym in his garage has turned into a chain of Gold Star Fitness centers.  He also owns multiple vacation rental properties.  He is also a Shaklee Master Coordinator.  He is a firm believer in having multiple streams of income and in doing business in a professional manner.

Overview of the Remote Control Simple System

Stan developed the Remote Control System and it was built on sound business principles.  It is a proven marketing plan and is easily duplicated by anyone.  It builds your business slowly and steadily.  It does not put pressure on you and it does not require you to ever mention your business to anyone unless they mention it first. The system builds business slowly and steadily over a period of years.  It is not a get rich quick scheme.

The system was designed for the Shaklee business model and products  and I am going to use them as an example.

1. First things first, you sign up as a member for $19.95 and try the products you think would benefit you.  Spend a month or two trying out the products.
2. Then you develop a list of 100 people that you know.  This is your prospect list and where the network part of marketing comes in.
3. You mail a flyer and a business card to each person once a month in a hand addressed envelope. On the first flyer, write a note at the top saying “I thought you might be interested in this.”
4. You don’t ever mention Shaklee to them unless they mention it first.
5. When they mention it, you simply ask them if they saw something they were interested in.  If they are interested and appear positive, share the fact with them.  “If you evaluate the products closely, you will find that they are a smart thing to incorporate into your life.”  If they are still positive, recommend that they try the product and send them a catalog.  If at any time, the person backs away or appears negative, drop it and change the subject to something else.  They are interested, they just aren’t ready yet.

How simple is that?  At this point, I am not going to go into the business model or explain the additional ways to make money but if you are interested, you can read more at Stan Pace’s website.  Once you are on his site, click on the blue star under Enjoying People and that will take you to a more detailed explanation.

Get Rich Quick – Not!

This is not going to make you $5000 a month in 6 months.  It’s not a get rich quick scheme.  Any successful business person will tell you that no business makes money in the first year and I have found that to be pretty accurate.  The good ones make a little money the second year.  I can tell you that when I applied this system to my Shaklee business I started getting a bonus check of $150 per month within 3 months.  It grew steadily and continuously without much effort on my part other than sending out flyers.

So what would you do with an extra couple hundred dollars a month?
