Working At Home The Mlm Way, Or Life After Corporate Job Cuts

They believe they run the world; they believe our destinies are in their hands; they believe they have the ultimate control. Who are they? Corporate America. Somewhere along the way the interest and well being of American employees became secondary to bottom line profits and how corporate America performed on Wall Street.
The continual addition of regulatory requirements, taxes and benefits, coupled with increasing direct labor costs, the employee is the collateral looser in the game of saving face on Wall Street. The new mantra being chanted, ‘You are too expensive to keep, we’ll find someone else to take on your work load.’
When the time comes to seek new replacements, many skilled employees will have departed for other avenues of generating income, many deciding to work at home, and many becoming involved with MLM marketing. The pay-back to this drama.
Corporations are facing the serious possibility when the economy improves, it will find many of those terminated or laid-off, especially those with experience and specific skill sets, are not returning to the same work force.
It took time and money to develop these specialized employees and many companies will find themselves back to square one potentially losing market share and client bases due to the loss of history along with the released employees. Short term rewards at the expense of long term business development.
Working at home, our newly ‘freed’ employee must develop and hone old and new skill sets, the primary one being discipline. For those who once found themselves in middle management, there will be no one to take the calls, run errands or perform subordinate tasks. You are the chief cook and bottle washer now.
Maury Horrell, the former President of Bendix Computer Division and Rixon Electronics, a wonderful man to work with and for, once said, ‘any business under five hundred employees is very difficult to run. Make it to five hundred and one, and it becomes so much easier.’ If you are a one or two individual operation, you have it the hardest. Tag you are ‘it’.
Multi Level Marketing (MLM) to the rescue? Well, maybe maybe not, depends on what product or service is being offered. In many cases MLM can make working at home less complex, as many business management processes are handled by the ‘network’.
If you find yourself on the door step of corporate America, facing outward, MLM provides opportunities. Be selective, be careful and perform due diligence and you too will survive and succeed!
