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.

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.
Still, for those that are interested in marketing Watkins products, I’ll do my best to paint a fair picture and unbiased picture for you. To be fair, let me first start by saying any review I give of Watkins may not be considered as unbiased, since I’m an Independent Watkins Associate myself. But I’ll be happy to provide a list of references for you to people that can certify I’m a straight shooter and known to express my opinions, whether good or bad, on all things related to Watkins.

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.

Watkins Associate Job Openings
While the worst economic recession we’ve seen during our lives is raining down on the world and job layoffs are occuring at an alarming rate, one American company is still offering work to any resident of Canada or the U.S., 18 years of age or older. The company I speak of is Watkins Incorporated, on track to do $110 million dollars in sales this year, a whopping $15 million dollars over year-ago levels.
You may recall Watkins, best known as the door-to-door sales company that’s been selling its products to North American residents for 141 years. The door-to-door business model that popularized the company in it’s heyday of the 1930′s through 1960′s has long since given way to more popular forms of direct sales, like booth sales at festivals and craft fairs, catalog distribution, home parties, non-profit sales and Internet sales.
Watkins is now a thriving network marketing company that allows its associates to not only make money from their direct sales, but also make overriding bonuses from the sales of other Watkins associates they personally recruit and sponsor. This fantastic business model allows associates to start a Watkins home business working part-time and build their Watkins business into a full-time income in a few short years.
Many people are not aware that Watkins was one of only a handful of companies that actually prospered during the Great Depression, actually increasing its sales revenues during the Great Depression years and increasing its work force. As we hunker down to prepare for difficult economic times, one way of building a great insurance policy for the future and making sure bad economic times never threaten your lifestyle again, is to start building a Watkins home-based business now.
Just like Watkins added new jobs during the Great Depression, it still has is doors open to adding new associates in 2009.
