1. It is "insertable"

Ok, I borrowed that "insertable" word from its intended meaning. What I really mean by that is suppose you know a household that spends around P1,000 on SMART load every month. You can introduce them to this business and recommend they get a Gold membership as this type requires a quota of P1,000 worth of load use to get a commission. The only thing that they would spend is the registration fee and BAM! they are into business and get the following:

a. Commissions for their load use every month
b. No changes in the load expenses (Still around P1,000.00)
c. They are not consumers anymore, they become more of producers as they can now load others or their neighbors

That is only one example, the bottomline is that cellphone load nowadays is considered a basic commodity for the majority of people. It is easy to sell as it is highly consumable. When you find a person or a household that matches any of the quotas then you can be able to introduce the business to him/her and you'll get a positive response (I did in my experience).

2. It is entrepreneurial training

I want to learn how to become an entrepreneur. Majority of us have been consumers for the longest time in our lives. I think it is time for us to also become producers.

How to sell. How to speak in front of people effectively. How to convince. How to take up any product, find a market, and say its benefits to that market and sell items to them. How to build confidence. I just wanted a challenge. How to help other people through your services/products. How to become a leader. How to shift an employee mindset into an entrepreneurial one.

How to fail, again and again and again, and then get back up every time to continue.

Because eventually I'll be using those skills and mindsets to build businesses that will give me passive income. Thus giving me more free time to do other things in life and also to help more people.

I believe that joining a network marketing company or direct selling industry is one of the ways where you can learn these skills. This was said by Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki in their book: Why We Want You To Be Rich.

3.SMART Communications has a large subscriber base

I think this is self-explanatory. With over 40 Million subscribers, you have a big ocean of fishes where you can get your earnings from.

4. More load-consuming cellphone services are offered other than the usual call/text.

Thus the more consumable SMART load is and the greater the demand. SMART BRO plug-it is loadable with prepaid load. 3G and GPRS services that give Internet connection to cellphones. There are value added services such as SMART Money. These some of the multiple services that SMART give.

5. To interact with more people

I love meeting new people. You learn many things from them; you can as well share your ideas with them. You expand your network which could lead to more business opportunities. Meeting new people also improves your relational skills and helps you conquer shyness.

There, if you think this list wasn't enough (na mukhang nabitin kayo..) you could post on the comments below if you would like me to add something, or if there are things that need improvement. I will humbly learn from you. Many thanks!
