When I was Young

Actually when I was in my twenties my dad introduced me to A.L.Williams Company. I was twenty three, twenty four. A.L.Williams sold term life insurance and they also sold mutual funds. The big pitch was the customer would buy the less costly term life insurance, dump their whole life insurance and then use the difference to invest in mutual funds. BUUTTTT this was all done as a multi level marketing program. So you, the builder could grow your company and earn incredible wealth. Nothing wrong with any of it except it was a real door to door, one on one sales program. And there I was twenty something, an ex army medic, an office cubicle installer, now an expert in life insurance and investing money. Their money. Yep, Yep, Yep! I was to go into somebody’s house to tell the forty something year old they should listen to my advice. I did not have a single nickel in a bank savings account but I knew how they should invest their money!

            I am 51 years old now. Not much smarter but a little more experienced. The older you become the larger your rear view mirror becomes. The rear view mirror is big, not huge, but big enough to see your own life so clearly. There are many, I should have dones and many, I wish I hadn’ts. This is why I am writing this article. I am writing this article to tell the young Freedom Project people they need to really take hold of this business because the Freedom Project is a viable business which works under two great market engines; the internet and network marketing. These two entities will become more prolific as the years forge forward. Everything as it is now will have changed or become extinct because of these two game changers.  I would not doubt the business you grow now in the Freedom Project will not only represent Shaklee but maybe two or more other suppliers in the future. So the time is now to build your business.

            I wish the knowledge I have now I had as a young man, the knowledge of network marketing when I was in my twenties. You see, I would have made my money, my kids would have had easier lives and maybe the physical tolls on my body would have never taken place. My business would be wide and deep and instantly ready to take on any opportunities, changes and challenges the future will bring. Instead I am starting now. My advice is to stick with the Freedom Project. Learn what you need to learn, do what you need to do to grow your business and become the shining stars to your children.
