The Secret to Watkins Success is to Join and Follow a Successful Associate
I first joined Watkins in early 2008 with a dream of building a nice retirement income that would cover expenses like medical insurance, property taxes, homeowners insurance, etc. Basically, those things you don’t want to be paying for out of your 401K retirement check or your social security check.
Prior to joining Watkins, I had resisted the world of network marketing for 38 years after a bad experience when I friend tried to recruit me into Amway right out of college. Yet, over the years I read many books on marketing, studied various forms of marketing and ultimately decided that if you could find the right company, with the right products, and you did a good job in educating your downline and communicating with them — building a network marketing business could be both fun and properous.
I did a lot of research on Watkins and many other network marketing companies before settling on Watkins. I documented my research conclusions in a free ebook you can download now at www.workfromhomegoldmine.com , in case you’re interested in becoming a network marketer or joining Watkins yourself. Now that I’ve been with Watkins 4 years I can proudly look back and say “I made the right decision, I’m still having fun and I’ve met my income goal of covering overhead I don’t want to have to pay out of my retirement check, when I do elect to retire.”
My Watkins success and how I built my Watkins business is something I share with all new associates that join my Watkins team. I provide ongoing training and lessons to all who elect to choose me as their Watkins sponsor. I learned many years ago that the secret to success is to find someone successful and follow their system. Once I discovered success in Watkins I documented my system in a moneymaking plan I call the “Money for Life Plan.”
If you elect to join Watkins you not only get a free copy of my “Money for Life Plan,” but you’ll also get regular lessons on how to build your Watkins business using the plan, along with ongoing lessons on how to operate your Watkins business.
A Watkins products business can be started on a shoestring budget. It only costs $39.95 plus tax to join. Since 1868 Watkins has sold its products through work from home entrepreneurs just like you. Mr. J.R. Watkins is widely known as the founder of the “moneyback guarantee.” To this day, Watkins not only offers a moneyback guarantee on all its 350 different products, but even offers a moneyback guarantee on our $39.95 signup kit. Thus, both you and your customers have nothing to lose with Watkins, and everything to gain.

Starting a Watkins Business is a Great Way to Turn Spare Time Into Cash
Let’s face it, these are difficult times we live in. Unemployment rates are among the highest we’ve seen in our lifetime, our federal government doesn’t seem to have a clue on how to jumpstart the economy again, and prices on food and other consumer goods continues to escalate. Most people have an extremely difficult time trying to raise a family with just one wage-earner in the household.
If you fall in this boat, or worried that one day it soon may happen to you, one possible alternative is to start a home business. When looking for types of businesses you might want to run or find interesting, be sure and add “Watkins Home Business” to your list of business possibilities.
Why Watkins? Well I can think of 50 reasons, but in today’s article I’ll concentrate on ten I consider very important:
- Watkins is North America’s oldest home-based business, founded in 1868.
- Since its founding, Watkins has always relied on work from home dealers or associates to market its products.
- Watkins has an outstanding payment plan that rewards you not only for the products you sell, but for building a Watkins sales organization of your own, if you choose to sponsor other Watkins associates.
- Watkins makes many products (i.e., Double Strength Vanilla Extract, Cinnamon, Black Pepper, Petro Carbo Salve and Red Liniment) that North American households have been using for many decades.
- You can build a Watkins business working part-time. In fact, over time you can build a full-time income stream working part-time just a few hours of each week.
- Watkins offers a money-back guarantee on every product they manufacture and sell. In fact, our founder, Mr. J.R. Watkins, invented the concept of the moneyback guarantee.
- Watkins is a great business you can conduct jointly with your spouse.
- Watkins is one of the least expensive home business opportunities one can consider. The cost to join Watkins is only $39.95 plus tax.
- We even offer a moneyback guarantee on the associate signup fee.
- Watkins is a leading manufacturer of all-natural products for the home and personal use.
Explore the Watkins business opportunity for yourself. Give me a chance to be your mentor and coach. With our no-strings attached money-back guarantee you have nothing to lose.
Become a Watkins Products Dealer
Selling Watkins products is fun, easy and rewarding. There are numerous things about Watkins that makes your road to success with Watkins fun. The fact that Watkins is 142 years old and that people will actually seek you out to buy products is always exciting. The fact that you’re selling products that are all-natural and good for the environment is not only a rewarding experience, but adds to the fun of knowing that as long as you lift and finger and make an effort, selling Watkins is easy. And anytime earning income is easy, it adds to the fun and joy of doing it.
I remind my new Watkins associates all the time that their decision to join Watkins was a decision to start a part-time business. And since they have no bosses and will be running their business part-time, I’ve learned from the wisdom of living on God’s green earth for a long time that if a part-time opportunity isn’t fun, you really won’t do it for very long. I’ve discovered by running my own Watkins products business, that because Watkins is truly a fun-filled part-time business experience, anyone that will dedicate a few minutes of their time each day to their Watkins business will enjoy a degree or level of success.
Now don’t get me wrong, those who work the hardest are rewarded the most, just like in all walks of life. But if one works diligently and contributes 8 to 10 hours a week, every week, to their Watkins products business, one can build a highly successful Watkins business over a few short years. If you want to build a successful Watkins business in months, rather than years, then you’ll need a good sponsor that can teach you the best methods for earning significant cash from your Watkins business early-on, and then dedicate part-time effort to your business either daily, or giving it several good hours of your time on weekends.
When a new Watkins associate signs up under me and says, “I want to build a Watkins products business, how do I do it?” . . . the first question I ask is “How do you see yourself building a Watkins business? After listening to their answer I then ask them about their past work experience, talents, attributes, etc. and determine if the way they see themselves building a Watkins business matches their personality and experience. For there are so many ways to build a successful Watkins business, I can often point them to a way that better fits their time schedule, talents and experience level, that will prove to be more fun and rewarding than the method(s) they’re thinking about using.
I myself and building a highly successful Watkins business online, so I get a lot of new Watkins associates that join because they want to market Watkins online. But I teach multiple means and ways to build a successful Watkins business and try my best to match the person with the method or methods that will optimize their success and earnings levels in Watkins. This is extremely important, because many people who want to market online have somehow come to the conclusion that marketing online is instantly rewarding and the easiest form of marketing.
Although I’ve been marketing online for almost 14 years, I never try to mislead someone into thinking it’s instantly rewarding, easy and will not take much of their time. Doing so would be false advertising, for successful online marketing requires patience to get your websites in the search engines, which only comes with time and plenty of content. Content you develop, content you write, unique content that you pen and don’t copy from someone else, for copying and pasting content is the quickest way to get kicked out of the search engines. Since most people don’t like to write, many who say they want to be an online marketer quickly find out they don’t have what it takes to succeed online.
Picking the right sponsor for you, one who enjoys mentoring and coaching, answering your questions and providing tips all the time, is a very important ingredient of the success formula for building a successful Watkins products business. Depsite your knowledge and IQ level, an old pro that’s been around a while and enjoys teaching others can always provide advise and tips that will shorten your road to success. But from the very start, the quickest way to shorten your road to success with Watkins is to have a sponsor that will help you put together a business plan and marketing method(s) that are best suited for your personality, skillsets and experience. Doing so from the start will result in higher earnings, quicker success and most importantly — a much more fun-filled ride to the top!

Pros and Cons of Starting a Watkins Products Business
“Why choose Watkins products as your source of extra income, or work from home business opportunity?” I get asked this question a lot. Making a T-List of pros and cons that evaluate the Watkins home business opportunity is really quite amusing. Why? Because the list of “pros” is so long it’s almost unbelievable, and trying to come up with a list of “cons” is almost impossible.

Cons Regarding Selling Watkins Products
- Watkins is not a get rich quick opportunity. Instead, its more of a get rich slow opportunity. It can take 5 to 7 years to build a six-figure income with Watkins. That said, my 4 15 years of Internet marketing experience and work from home experience has taught me that there are no free rides in that world, that the so-called “get rich quick schemes” touted online by thousands of get-rich wannabe’s should be more accurately called get rich quick scams.
- Neither Watkins, nor your sponsor, is going to build your Watkins business for you. When becoming an associate you are not buying an existing Watkins business, but will be responsible for going out and building your own Watkins business. Too often, many people feel they can sign up and become an associate and they will become instantly rich. Sorry friend, but you’re going to have to work for what you earn with Watkins. On the plus side, the work is extremely fun, very easy, not demanding, and can be scheduled anytime you like to operate your business.
- Although Watkins provides extensive training online, providing documents and online audio recordings, it has very little video training and relies heavily on personal mentoring from your sponsor. Hence, it is extremely important that you weigh and consider the merits and experience of the Watkins associate you are considering as your sponsor. Picking a Watkins sponsor that takes a keen interest in your success and helping you build a successful Watkins business by providing great mentoring and training is probably one of the most important decisions you’ll make when you decide to start a Watkins business. Don’t be afraid to ask a prospective sponsor what he or she brings to the table, what sets them apart from other Watkins associates or makes them different from other sponsors you could choose or might be considering.
