The number one question we hear is - "I'm busy . . . can I make this work with family commitments and another career or do I need to do it full time to make money?"

First of all it is a total myth that one needs to put 100% of their time in to a personal franchise, home business or network marketing business if you want to be successful. Believing that you need to do this is the first obstacle to overcome.

In my last company, I had a full time job and had time to manage my home business. Was it hard? Only if not watching TV is hard. The real value is that it provides leverage. I have met people with families and jobs that consistently spend 2-4 hours per day in front of the television. The AVERAGE family spends 30-40 hours PER WEEK in front of the TV.

Someone could build a business that replaces their current income by simply scaling back their TV time to 10 hours per week and using the remaining 20 hours per week to introduce their passion and business to 10 people per week. Leveraging time and people can give you the power to invest limited time and money in your business and produce extraordinary results. Using "Any way" time you can also market your business as you are shopping, at church functions, school functions kids games etc..

Very simply, if you can invest 5 hours per week and find 4 other people that can invest 5 hours per week, you now get to benefit from 20 hours worth of work a week, but you are only putting in 5! Imagine getting paid for thousands of hour's worth of work a week and you're only putting in a few! You can build a successful enterprise on just a few hours a week for yourself and more importantly - for others. There are many people looking for alternative solutions.

Without being blunt, even if you are busy, please don't use that as an excuse. If you are busy, you need a home business more than ever. You need passive residual income as either your main source of income or as Dr. Phil says - your plan "B". There is no security in a job any more. You need to free yourself from the shackles of linear income. Most people that earn great money in a home business were already busy when they started them. For most of them, that's why they did it! In fact I have found that busy people are well connected and they get things done.

So if you are busy, congratulations! You'll do great in a personal franchise! Not sure of the right business and more importantly how to find the right team? We have solved that problem at CashFlowPotentials.com.
