. . . in Pursuing the American DreamWritten by Tom Czubernat
Continued from page 1
So, what to do? Again, I did research. I found some very good alternatives which can break us from this cycle of dependence on selling our time. There are two ideas which really stood out. The first is to capitalize on next real commodity which we all posses. Knowledge is other real possession and everyone has it. There are things you know that I may be willing to pay money for. Let me give you an example using my situation. I've been a carpenter for 15 years. I know residential structure inside and out. There has been a growing trend in USA. In course of purchasing a home, buyer hires someone to inspect building for structural and mechanical deficiencies. That is my niche. I already possessed knowledge, I just needed to get licensed in my state and sell my knowledge. I am now building capital I will need to stop having to sell my time. Let me repeat that; Everyone possesses knowledge. People simply need to find their niche and capitalize on information exchange. I will write subsequent articles on this subject with ideas on how knowledge can be marketed. The second is to sell products. If you don't have products, relax. About 40 years ago a company came on scene which changed prospects for average citizens. This company introduced "affiliate" system of marketing products. The general idea is that an already existing company gives anyone who signs up opportunity to sell that company's products and make a very good commission on sale. But, it got better. The individual could also introduce other people to business opportunity , allowing them to sell company's products, in effect, sponsoring a sales person. The sponsor would also earn a commission on "their" sales person's sale. If you sponsored two people and each of them sold two products and you would earn a commission of 4 sales. That doesn't include your efforts. And best part is that some of better companies will give you training and support you need for free. Neither one of these will get you rich quickly. Both methods require some effort and some investment. These are, however two ways which I found can allow an average person, born to average parents, to become financially independent. This, in turn allows everyone to lead more fulfilling lives and to take care of that, which needs our most focused attention; people around us!
