5.0 out of 5 stars New Century, New Biz World, New Money, Sep 28 2000

"bizzyperson" (St. Louis, MO) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The New Professionals: The Rise of Network Marketing As the Next Major Profession (Paperback)

If you are one of the many that are trying to keep up with the ever changing face of the business world, you need to read this book. In the last five years, I have personally experienced more changes and more growth in my own business life that in all the other 25 years put together. The bottom line is that things are rapidly changing - and we have two choices - embrace the changes and learn to use them to our advantage - or resist the changes and get left behind. While multi-level marketing is not new and not all multi-level companies are created equal, the industry is certainly emerging as one that offers some of the best opportunities for people to get started as independent business owners with a relatively small investment, especially for those who might never have had any other way to achieve financial independence. For some time now, I have had first hand knowledge of the money that can be earned by the small business owner, many of whom were not college educated and were not your straight A, honor roll student. There are countless thousands that have invested heavily in higher educations to obtain skills to get "good paying jobs" that will never come near the income levels working as an employee that can be achieved as an independent business owner. If you have looked down your noise in times past at "multi-level marketing", take another look!! After all, it wasn't but a few years back that most of us had never even heard of the internet, much less used it in every day life!!

1.0 out of 5 stars One of the worst books I have ever read, Dec 7 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: The New Professionals: The Rise of Network Marketing As the Next Major Profession (Paperback)

This book seems to be a commissioned marketing book for network marketing. It reads like a sales brochure and contained very little information that was of value to me. It seems likely that it was funded by a bunch of MLM companies, including Prepaid legal, Excel and Herbalife, among others.

Don't believe the other customer reviews, and don't waste your money on this book. There must be better books out there than this one.

I am also shocked at the number of people who endorse this book on the back cover. I wonder how many of them actually read it.

One of the worst books I have ever read.

This review is from: The New Professionals: The Rise of Network Marketing As the Next Major Profession (Paperback)

I very much appreciated the content of The New Professional. Dr Charles King and James Robinson add a great credibility factor to the industry of Network Marketing. Valuable content for anyone looking to get into the industry, or anyone who is already in the industry and has a confidence problem when talking about the industry. Great training tool for leaders to give to their new recruits, gives a good overall understanding of this rapidly expanding industry. Lots of great facts. Overall to become a student of this industry an excellent read for professional development.
