Leverage On the Power of Multiplication


What makes the Rich, rich? Most of the rich people are not the most qualified, the most intelligent or the hardest working type. In fact, many of them are drop-outs from school. They made their days because
they realized much earlier in their life that only by building a business system can make one rich, especially a system that is empowered with the power of multiplication and duplication.


“Another word for business system is ‘Network. If you really want to be rich, you must begin to know and understand the power found in networks. The richest people in the world build networks. Everyone else is trained to look for work.” said Rich dad of Robert Kiyosaki, in his book The Business School”.



Why Network is Powerful – Because It Leverages on The Power of Metcalf’s Law


Robert Metcalf is one of the people credited for creating the Ethernet. He is also credited for defining Metcalf’s Law, which is:


A Network’s Economic Value = Number of Users2


The economic value of a network goes up exponentially, not arithmetically. The beauty of network marketing is that it has made available to the average individual, people like you and me, the power of Metcalf’s Law…but you must obey the law.


If you follow the principle of the law, just affiliating with a network marketing company is a good start, but that act alone does not entitle you to harness the power. It would be like your buying a telephone, but you are the only one with the telephone. In order for you to harness the power, your job is to clone or duplicate someone just like you. The moment there are two of you, your economic value is squared. The value of your network has just gone from zero to four. The moment there are three of you, the economic value of your network goes from four to nine. If the two people you bring in also develop two more people each, the economic value of your network begins to look like a rocket taking off for the moon. Instead of working hard arithmetically, your economic value begins to grow exponentially. That is the power and the value of a networked business.



Networker has The Potential to Out-earn Most Professionals


Over time, a successful networker has the potential to out-earn most professional people such as doctors, lawyers, accountants, and other rugged individuals. The difference and the power are explained through Metcalf’s Law…a very important value of a network marketing business. Network marketing is the fastest growing business model in the world today, even though they cannot see it because it is virtual or invisible. Building a network business is simply looking for friends, new and old, who want to go in the same direction you want to go. Let’s say you bring in 10 people, ten new friends into the business. The value of your network is now worth 100, not 10. If those 10 people bring in 10 people each…the value of your business explodes.


Robert Kiyosaki said, “If I had to do it all over again, rather than build an old style type of business, I would have started building a network marketing business.” Why did he say that? Because network marketing is embedded with the power of Metcalf’s Law, the power of multiplication and duplication.

Birds of A Feather Flock Together – Do You Flock with The Right Group?



Most of us have heard the saying, “Birds of a feather flock together.” Well that saying holds true not only for birds but also for the people. In other words, the rich network with the rich, the poor network with the other poor people, and the middle class hangs out with the middle class.
