Direct Sales as a Corporate Job Alternative
Why the corporate world doesn’t work for women, and moms for sure – it’s designed to cater to those who can tune out family responsibilities, sick kids and so on, for a stretch of time through the day.
Corporate is looking for those who want to be on the fast track, and understandably so, as it’s BUSINESS first.
But, this is not a fit for women, although we have been in the work force for years, corporate has never truly adapted to the needs of a family and all of those demands.
This is not about women only, I realize and some men will fit into this. But, the reality is that most of the household details fall to the woman in traditional life.
September, 2013, the amount of women in the workforce matched the lowest recorded in 24 years, and it’s not just due to the economy, otherwise those stats would be largely the same for men.
The United States has one of the worst maternity policies of developed countries.
So, is the corporate world designed to push women out? Well, not by design but it is not a great fit.
Women are often forced to make a choice between their job and their family. And, we all know what is typically going to be the choice.
So, let’s talk about Direct Sales as an alternative and what it takes –
Self Motivation
True Grit
Determined Attitude
Develop a Business Plan – SERIOUSLY – this is critical!
Commit to personal development.
Direct Sales gets a bad rap, accused of not empowering people, and front loading and the sky high failure rate. But, the reality of that is that it’s not direct sales that doesn’t work – it’s the individual.
You Inc, as a business requires YOU to be the leader.
As far as front loading – let’s be adults. We all control our own checkbook and credit card so be grown up and say NO, when you need to.
Direct Sales may not be the best alternative if you need to make money RIGHT now to stay afloat and pay the bills.
Putting in 2 hours a week, throwing up a few posts on Facebook is not going to build you a strong, steady business.
