Some predict the next five years will be the golden age for Network Marketing…
With many sectors of our economy struggling, at least one seems to be flourishing — direct or home-based marketing.
It’s called network marketing, and those who are doing it say it’s recession-proof.
“I kind of saw the writing on the wall and knew there was a really good chance I wouldn’t have a job starting January 1st,” said Libby Howe, who lost her job last week.
Howe, a new mom, was a pharmaceutical sales representative.
“Pounding down doors, trying to talk to doctors everyday,” is how she described her job.
When the company downsized, Howe, with 12-week-old Avery at their Ballston Spa home, had to decide what to do next.
“It was either I’m going to have to build my life around my work or I could find a job where I could build my work around my life,” she said.

Being a work at home dad in the network marketing field myself this has given me the freedom to choose my own hours that works totally around a busy 4 yr old, beats driving lorries 60 – 80 hours a week. However finding the right business to do can be a bit of a mine field. Researching the industry and checking with government bodies such as the DSA (Direct Selling Association) is even more relevant in today’s ecconomic climate, due to the number of scams cropping up. This unfortunately is the downside of a recession apart from the recession itself.
