How I Failed in Network Marketing (and Succeeded as a Mobile Notary)
You can listen to this blog on YouTube here
Through 26 business failures, I tried my share of network marketing opportunities.
Aside from Primerica and Legalshield, I wasn’t good at any of them. And even with those two, I was mediocre at best. I just happened to love the insurance products from those two companies, so they were easier to talk about.
And that ended up being a huge realization for me.
I’d get so enrolled with the vision, falling in love with the potential of the opportunity (a total reflection of my dating life at the time too), and daydreaming about:
- Having freedom and flexibility to do what I want, when I want;
- Making unlimited income, easily;
- And finally being able to call myself a successful business owner.
And then reality hit.
The top three reasons I failed at network marketing:
- I tried to sell stuff I didn’t really believe in, so I shied away from talking to anyone about them.
- And, even if I loved the product, I...

I almost didn’t graduate high school because of two subjects: Keyboarding and algebra.
Keyboarding, by the way, was still done on a typewriter in 1996 Show Low, Arizona (somehow that was 26 years ago).
I wish I could say my failing grade was because I had some clairvoyant vision that computers were the wave of the future, and typing was obsolete, but that wasn’t it. I just didn’t go to class (and I still can’t type). That was the pitfall of being 18 years old for my senior year: I could sign myself out of school.
And algebra…

Letters and I got along just fine in English class, geeking-out alone on paper, writing essays and book reports. But throw them in with mathematical equations, and suddenly they act like...

We work so hard to fill our pipeline with appointments. Think about all the energy, money, and effort we put into:
- Cultivating referral relationships
- Building websites
- Having social media pages
- Adding more directory listings
- Signing up with hiring companies
- Creating a Google Business Profile
- Networking meetings and events
- Creating and distributing content
- Training (so we’re good at what we do)
All this work to get our phone to ring and ding, and then what?
Most notaries finish an appointment and then just hop right back on the hamster wheel again and start all over, hustling for their next customer-another new customer.
Now, there’s nothing wrong with new customers, don’t get me wrong. But they're expensive to acquire. The Harvard Business Review suggests that it is 5-25 times more expensive to acquire a new customer than to sell your services to an existing client.
