"Unemployment Idol" - of 650,000 will YOU be chosen for a J.O.B?

Did you know that in February 2009 more than 600,000 people LOST their jobs across the United States? Were you one of them?

Now keep in mind that was *just* the month of February, the average National unemployment rate is nearly in the double digits now, in some areas it's over, like the state where I live (Nevada) it is now nearly 11%. That is 11 people of every 100 with no job.

I have been watching the MSNBC RSS feeds coming across and in the past few days I've seen...
  • 700 people apply for a single janitorial job.
  • Man submits over 300 resumes, was one of 1,000 for one job.
  • More than 5,000 applicants for hotel jobs in California.
  • Man drives 3400 miles in hopes of finding a job, sells tool box to pay the rent.
These headlines are crossing the newswire coast to coast, Newspaper Headlines, Blogs, RSS feeds and more... People are swarming to jobs in droves hoping and praying as they are mentally screaming 'pick me, pick me'.

Online job websites are getting record numbers of hits, companies are pulling down their ads quickly as they are getting way too many applicants, more than they can handle. Ads that say no calls are getting so many calls from applicants wanting to stand out, that are 'following up' to make sure their resume has been received. (only to be told, yes we got your resume as well as 1,000 others...)

Introducing "Unemployment Idol", yep, it IS a reality, not a reality 'show'. Hundreds of thousands of people are seeking jobs, will you be the lucky one who shines brightest to get the job?

What makes YOU stand out from the rest? Is your experience greater? Your resume broader? Are you willing to work more for less?
Imagine the employers, the 'judges' we'll say, having to sort through and read all the resumes. How do they pick the best employee? Perhaps they have a panel of 4 each with their own opinion...
  • Judge 1 "looks like a good dawg, but I'm not sure.."
  • Judge 2 "has some experience, but is lacking in some areas."
  • Judge 3 "wonderful, I love the whole thing!"
  • Judge 4 "are you kidding me, you're going to have to do better than that!"
Are you worried that you may be too young for the job? Too old? Over qualified? Under qualified? Asking too much for salary? Job not offering enough salary?

Are you seeking jobs that are very far away willing to sacrifice your time to commute 2 hours each way?
Are you dumbing down your resume so you don't look over qualified or fluffing up your resume so you appear to be able to work a career where you have no experience?

This is exactly what you are up against, thousands of others doing the exact - same - thing.
You just don't know who fluffed better, who is offering more for less salary, who is willing to travel farther for even less... Imagine the employers and what they are going through!

Every morning when I awakeI am thankful for earning an income
in a recession proof profession.

I'm in Network Marketing. I choose my pay and I get paid for for my efforts, as well as upon the work of others on my team. When I want a raise, I can create it. My income has steadily been increasing over the past year. The best part? I can not be downsized, laid off, or fired. As I continue to grow my career in Network Marketing, my income is continuing to grow too.

Sounds too good to be true, doesn't it?
Well, it's not. Network marketing has been around for over 50 years. And in the several strained financial times over these several decades, the Network Marketing industry has climbed to new levels each time exploding in growth and creating more and more six figure income earners.

Network Marketing is being your own boss, like creating your own job because Network Marketing is a Lifestyle Choice.
Keep in mind, Network Marketing is not a 'job' in the sense of working for someone else, it's a Lifestyle choice and a path. Network Marketing is readily available to anyone willing to make a change in their lifestyle.
  • A resume is not required.
  • Skills are not required.
  • Travel is not required.
  • Experience is not required.
There is no discrimination in this industry. It does not matter your age, sex, sexual orientation, economic status, race or religion. ANYONE can excel in this industry. The only thing that is required is the passion to succeed and the strength to not accept failure as an option.

There is no glass ceiling in Network Marketing. You can dream and travel as high as you want and the only person that can stand in your way is YOU. There is no cap on the income, if you build it, it will come. A very true statement in Network Marketing.

What IS Network Marketing?
This is an industry of marketing, via networking with others. There are several ways to earn an income in Network Marketing. The key is believing in you and making it happen. There are people that have gone from almost losing their home and going bankrupt to earning tens of thousands of dollars per month.
Whether you really need just $100 more per month, or would feel more comfortable with $1000 more per month. Even if you need to replace an income of over $50,000 per year, all things are possible with Network Marketing.

Explore the Possibilities...
I've been in the industry since 1993 and if you are ready to take the bull by the horns. I teach my partners to move forward and make their dreams happen. You have a choice...you can keep submitting resumes, but you can also take charge of your life and make a Lifestyle Change...

Sincerely,
Alethea Anderson

When the 'comfy couch' tosses you on your face, what do you do?

Have you been booted off your comfy couch? Perhaps they came and repo'd your couch!

The government says the economy is in dire straights, the word 'Recession' is tossed around and people are getting scared. People are getting laid off, homes are foreclosing, cars are being repossessed, credit lines are closing - how is this 'recession' affecting YOU? Are you going to claim to be a victim? Or are you going to take a stand and REFUSE to take part in said 'recession'?


What will you do to take a stand? How are you going to make a change?



Here's a secret...



"During times of economic strife the Network Marketing industry has flourished."



Perhaps you balk at the idea of Network Marketing....


"A Pyramid!"


you declare. Well, it's time to take a second look and find the truth in Network Marketing... Network Marketing is the only industry that is RECESSION PROOF. That's right, this industry has record growth when times are tough because strife awakens the entrepreneur in many. The entrepreneurial bug bites when the odds are down, people have a NEED and when they have a NEED they take ACTION.


Some start their own companies, some search out ways to make money with minimal investment. With Network Marketing you earn based on how hard you work plus you also have the potential to show others how to do the same and earn from their hard work too. No one said it was easy, but worth it? YES.



Now listen up, the reason for this substantial growth in Network Marketing during economic downfall is because people get desperate, their couch is missing, they need a new one! They NEED extra money, and are finally WILLING to do whatever it takes to make it happen. (Who likes sitting on milk crates anyway? You get waffle butt!)



You see regular people get 'comfy' in their lives, and often reject change. They think...



"I'm comfy here, if I try something new, I may have to get up off the couch..."



They get comfortable with their lifestyles, don't get me wrong, they WANT more, but don't bother because they are riding comfy couch of life.



However, when someone is ejected from the kicked back cozy recliner, they fly across the room, land hard and get rug burn on their nose. When face to face with carpet (or waffle butt) they realize...



"NOW I am NOT comfortable any more..."



At this time, people who formerly did not even consider the idea of a home based business. People who would not touch a network marketing company with a ten foot pole. People who would not be caught dead sharing an opportunity with co-workers, family, friends and neighbors. These same people have a motivation, they have a NEED. They are driven by survival. They are driven by wanting to pay the heating bill, put gas in their car, put food on the table (by wanting a new couch)


"Some of us seek the opportunity of Network Marketing and we knock on its door, while others wait until the knock is at THEIR door."


Either way, it's a step in the right direction. First and foremost, you HAVE to WANT it and you have to BELIEVE in YOU to make it happen. If you are experiencing an echo from the wallet, some new rug burn or your couch is missing, I'd love to chat with you. Explore my home business website and contact me. Let's chat!

I work at home FROM my comfy couch and I LOVE it!
