What a shame. Though network marketing differs in many, many ways from traditional business, we need to remember that in some ways it is no different than traditional business. Sometimes things will happen at the corporate level that will affect our effort and our business. Like traditional business, sometimes a networking venture will fold, sometimes it will never get off the ground. Sometimes companies will merge and the networking end will be fazed out.
Business is business.
Networking marketing doesn't offer any guarantees. It's not magically immune to many of the pitfalls of traditional business. Myself, I have had two experiences where changes at the corporate level have had tremendous and devastating affects on my efforts. So much so that I felt that I couldn't carry on representing the companies in question. I was about to give up on the industry all together when I was fortunate to fall into a conversation with a very, very wise woman.
