• By the end of its first year, the company must have reported at least $200,000 in revenue; by the end of the fourth year, it must have reported at least 2 million in revenue.

• Each company profile is researched thoroughly by Inc. and includes interviews with the CEOs of almost every company on the list.

Network Marketing Companies Experience The Most Growth During A Recession

I recently heard a statistic that network marketing companies experience growth the most during a recession. This is easy to understand why. A recession puts people out of their comfort zones. It wakes people up so to speak. Many lose their jobs. Funds become tight. This is when we realize that job security is a fickle concept.

Working a set salary all your life won’t ever make you rich. Most aren’t looking to get rich, however. What we really want is to just be able to provide for our families. It’s during a recession that many people realize their job they thought was secure, their job they thought was safe, the job they thought would provide for them until retirement may not necessarily be their best bet.

I heard a quote recently that the only way to get rich is to be able to make money while you sleep. What this eludes to is the power of residual income. If you have income coming in while you sleep or even though you’ve lost your job or even once you’re retired, if you have income coming in all the time, now that is financial security. Residual income means you have income coming in even when you’re not working! This is the power network marketing provides. It’s recession proof. Now that’s powerful.

There’s no other type of business or job you can say that about other than network marketing. No other job protects against a downturn, a slow in the economy, or a drop in the stock market like a network marketing business. If you build up your business, it will always be there for you, creating income while you sleep or while you’re vacationing in the Mediterrenean.

There’s no other market that actually grows during a recession. What’s even more exciting is that sales of alternative health products also increase during a recession. Recently, I wrote a post on how alternative health products were booming even in spite of (or perhaps because of) the recession. What’s even more phenomenal is the growth Lifewave is experiencing as a company. It’s like the recession hasn’t affected this company at all. It’s truly amazing. Now that’s something to be involved in.

Sales of Alternative Medicine Products Are Booming

Despite our current recession (or perhaps because of our current recession), sales of alternative medicine products are booming.

It is estimated sales are up at least 10%, remarkable for the decreases in spending in other areas. This is all across the board.

One reason for this may be the skyrocketing costs of insurance premiums, medications, and illness. It is far more expensive to be diseased and unhealthy than it is to spend money on the necessities of preventing illness in the first place.

In tough economic times, people do not have the money to spend on high healthcare costs. As one person put it, people are “value shopping.”

Alternative health remedies are usually considerably less in cost than mainstream medicine.

Whatever the cause, this is certainly good news for Lifewavers.

In Lifewave alone, we experienced massive growth in 2008, despite the recession. In 2009, each month surpassed the previous month is sales, and in 2010, we're expecting an even better year.
