From 1848 to approximately 1859 was an exciting time in American history; it was the time of the infamous California Gold Rush. During this time some 300,000 people from across the globe flocked to the Sunshine State From 1848 to approximately 1859 was an exciting time in American history; it was the time of the infamous California Gold Rush. During this time some 300,000 people from across the globe flocked to the Sunshine State in hopes of staking claim to a new fortune.
During this time tens of billions of dollars worth of gold was discovered! At the beginning of the Gold Rush there were reports of gold nuggets being found so easily that they could literally be picked up of the ground. As it became more difficult to extract gold there were significant monetary investments that needed to be made to create the technologies and processes needed to maximize the effectiveness of mining.
This need for additional monies caused many businessmen to join forces and essentially lock out the small guy. This influx of "opportunity seekers" was also the catalyst for many of the advances in transportation technology as well.
After it was all said and done the results were overwhelming. Of the 300,000 that took the journey for riches only a few actually found fortune, many left with little more than what they originally came with, and even more left with less than they started with.
This raises an interesting question.....who made the most money in the Gold Rush? Hint, it wasn't the gold seekers. In my opinion the person that positioned themselves to provide the tools necessary for the success of the gold hungry prospectors fared very well and here's why.
With everyone focused on the possibility of striking it rich by finding massive amounts of gold there were certain tools that all of them would've had to purchase to even have a chance (i.e. picks and shovels). Everyone seeking gold at bare minimum needed picks and shovels to even attempt to find wealth.
This person that provided the TOOLS didn't have to hard sell anyone and could probably name his own price with very little resistance. This person never had to chase prospects or over exert himself with advertising to get the word out. I also believe that this person merely had to open the doors and sales flocked to him automatically.
We are experiencing a similar "Gold Rush" scenario right now. With the economy stuck in a continuous state of disarray over the past several years there are tens of thousands of people seeking a way to strike it rich and break the bonds of poverty forever. In contrast, there are many who in recent years have publicly made fortunes working from home online. This has caused a "rush" of people flocking to the internet in droves to find their fortune.
Just like the California Gold Rush many will attempt to find gold. Some will find plenty, some will find very little, and some will find none at all. Sad, but true. To position yourself in the best way during this New Gold Rush look at opportunities to provide the mass of opportunity seekers with the tools that they need to create wealth. As network marketers that is definitely within our work description.
Challenge:
Find the tools needed for successful online operations, refer opportunity seekers, and cash in with no hassles, prospect hounding, or rejection. You will find much less resistance providing the tools for success that a person can use in whatever business they decided to join instead of keeping your focus on forcing them into your particular biz opp. Remember there are a TON of work from home opportunities and each will resonate with a different crowd, however, one thing always remains the same. "You can't fix financial hardship or anything else without the right TOOLS".g claim to a new fortune.
