I joined an IBO in Amway 10 years ago and found that there was not much experience around at that time. Many people that were unfocussed (As I was) were unsuccesful in the business. I joined up with another IBO recently and found that this time around there was some good leadership in place. I have not had much experience of other MLM's but I find that the people involved with N21 are a very positive group of people with some excellent leadership as well as people skills. I believe that if you join a network marketing company you need to ensure that you are joining a good "leader" and a fast growing group. You need to be able to relate to the people that you are joining. You also need to join a company that has the right sort of ethics and has been around for a long time. There is a common misconception in that you are joining Amway. This is not true as you are joining an existing team of people associated to Amway. I have found that in the last few months we have been able to grow a profitable business through the N21 system. My people skills and leadership skills have grown dramatically. This would not have happened in my conventional business unless I had attend many seminars which would probably have cost thousands. I am with a fantastic group of people and beleiev that it is the best decision I have ever made.
