Guest guest Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 Another thought that might help clarify the Quixtar biz in general for folks is that the potential for large profit is most certainly there. Just because most folks don't make it to that level, doesn't mean the reality doesn't exist and here's why... (As an aside.....the Quixtar retail online site is hugely profitable and one of the largest on the internet. The site is strictly product driven, not related to tapes, books seminars in anyway.) I think it's human nature that a lot of folks join these types of businesses expecting easy money and I'm here to tell you that Quixtar is not easy money! You are going to work your butt off if you want to achieve the higher income levels! Once the foundation is laid, the work effort can slow down but initally, you are working hard day in and day out. I'm a good one to ask because I've been both extremely active, busting my bootie, and at times more passive in my Quixtar biz so I have really " been there, done that " in all aspects. An " active' IBO i.e.one making good money, on the way to 6 figures, is out showing the biz plan and getting other people started on a consistent basis week after week, month after month for 2-3 years non-stop. The 10-15 hours a week they mentioned last night is from doing that specific business activity (i.e. showing the business plan several times a week to new people and getting new folks started. And then showing the business for your new people until they are comfortable enough to do it themselves.) During this phase of your business building to 6 figures level, you aren't home much in the evenings! You are on the road constantly night after night. But with that type of effort, a person can be at the 6 figure level within 2-3 years. So yes, there is a price to pay for finanical freedom as would be expected. Here's the problem....people get in Quixtar and never show the business plan once! They use a few products, tell a few others, and then wonder why there is no money!?! Here's the bottom line...and it's not limited to the Quixtar biz.....what I have found is that people expect to make a PhD effort income via grade school effort work habits and that just ain't gonna happen....there is no free lunch... Hope this helps clarify! LeAnn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 8, 2004 Report Share Posted May 8, 2004 ine, I'm so glad you brought this up! I promise I'm almost done and will shut up.....!!! The main reason I don't actively build my Quixtar biz anymore is due to my severe pet allergies and fibromyalgia/fatigue. I just couldn't keep up the pace as my illness crept up on me. Do you know how many people own cats and dogs?! I left many a downline's home wheezing and coughing.....lol! My allergies were getting worse despite allergy shots due to the frequent exposure. I don't blame the Quixtar business at all. I knew what it was going to take for a high level of success and just couldn't physically keep up any longer. The experience and people were wonderful and I wouldn't trade it for anything. That's why I have my little Watkins biz now! Even on a bad day...hurting and fatigued...I can gimp over to a neighbors with a catalog and samples and take an order!
