Re-branded Ideas
I wanted to touch a bit on this, it is something I have come to notice, but I am sure that others have already found this out. Now, for the past 20 years I have search for some type of business that I can work hard at and of course start to make money but of course work less. I know that with any business you need to work hard for three to five years, but once established, and if you have the right individuals in place to continue running the business, then you can stop working as hard.
Now, I have done everything from Don Lapre to The Cash Flow Industry, to vending machines to selling on eBay, to signing up with Affiliate programs and well the list is incredible and let me say some of the things I mention to work, they take time to build, but of course time is and has always been the essence for any individual to want to make money…any many of us…try and find shortcuts or just simply don’t have the patience to stick to it…this is play and simply true.
Now, I have come to notice that many things or business opportunities have come around once again, you see those famous “Info-mercials” selling an idea, and dream or opportunity, how ever you want to see it. The thing is that they are simply the same thing offered 5-10 years ago, with slight modification to fit today’s’ internet world of getting information out to the masses and of course a new salesman pitching the idea.
Now, this is not only true to business opportunities, but to fitness programs, I have noticed that these PX90 and Zumba and many others are really only remakes of old work out programs created in the 80’s or 90’s, of course once again they change it up with a few different moves, or equipment maybe has moved forward, but they are the same, different name and of course a new salesperson pitching the program.
The thing is with the ever growing population there is always someone believing, dreaming and purchasing these products or services or ideas. And what happens is the cycle begins, the user will try to cut corners, or simply give up after 6 months or so…the only difference now is that with the internet, people can voice their un-happiness and the fact that they got scammed…never really to think if it was completely the program or them, but the cycle continues and there is always someone climbing aboard the cycle. You’ll see that in another three years or less we will see a new face on that noticeable business opportunity or fitness program.
I wanted to point that out, I know times are extremely tough for many people and trying something new right now that costs anything is probably not the best choice or simply put we can’t afford it. But if we as an individual put a small amount of effort, consistently for more than 3 years on something that is a good opportunity, and then the income will follow. I was thinking with some affiliate programs out there that cost nothing, except the cost to advertise and that can be $50 bucks a month or so…and an actual physical business, where hard labor is required or better said…body movement is needed, then you can build it, stick to it for at least three years, then find the right people to help maintain/run it then maybe we can establish something that will allow us to live comfortably on our retirement years…because we can’t count on Social Security or our 401(K)….we need to establish a little some more….only saying.
My Perspective:
Look closely at what you might purchase in regards to anything, business opportunity or fitness program for that matter. It could very possible be that an old business opportunity one pitch 5-10 years ago, with some slight modification but the same idea…I come to realize that these are only real gimmicks and those behind the pitch person are the ones making the money…now don’t get me wrong…some business out there are legitimate…seriously…the thing is that in order for them to work…you need to be patient and most important consistent. Remember anytime you start a business get a business license and a fictitious name and deduct the any expense [legal] that you incur form the business from your taxes…it can be done. Maybe a business name that is high level, s that it can be used for other business idea that you do or find, after much research, these are my suggestions and have worked for me….so like I said I am sharing what I do and learned…I am not offering any tax or legal advice simply sharing an idea.
Thanks for reading and till next time…there are real opportunities out there…just remember stick with it, start low in marketing costs and be patient. Good luck and Latino Man signing off.
