These two integrities are important if you want to be ahead of the game…
“The young man knows the rules but the old man knows the exceptions” ~ Oliver Wendell Holmes
To some degree we all have a rebellious characteristic that is a part of us.
Although there are rules and regulations, we tend to not want to follow all of them. Maybe it’s because we feel too limited, maybe because we find some of them ridiculous, or maybe we find that they take up a lot of our time and we want to cut corners.
Whatever our reasons are, we can honestly say that we all broke a rule here and there to get what we want since we were children.
The problem is that if we don’t have rules, civilization as we know it will crumble and fall. Can you imagine being in a lawless land where everyone has the EVERY MAN FOR HIMSELF mentality? We wouldn’t get anywhere!!!
In the previous post The B-I Triangle: Leader and Product I left off with how knowing the rules can make a difference between your SUCCESS and your FAILURE in your company.
This is why having some type of LEGAL SUPPORT and getting an understand of the rules and regulations and their exceptions are important for you as an entrepreneur.
In two previous posts entitled 3 Things You Probably Didn’t Know About Your Taxes…” and Do You Want To Be Wealthy? Learn This Rule… I talked about and listed some of the tax benefits you have as a home business owner.
It’s sad how a lot of people get involved in the network marketing industry, but yet are not in “The Know” of the tax privileges they have. Especially if they work with a CPA that doesn’t specialize in HOME BUSINESS TAX LAW.
This is why Robert Kiyosaki recommends that we all have some type of legal support.
I know, I know, a lot of us network marketers can not afford having a lawyer like the filthy rich. Most of us can’t afford calling a lawyer whenever we feel like it to get some good business advice. Getting charged $200/hr to talk to a good lawyer isn’t that cheap.
A solution for the average person is having some type of LEGAL INSURANCE. Yes, there are actual legal plans out there that are very affordable and can help you not only as an entrepreneur but also as a regular civilian.
The plan that I have covers a wide variety of areas from getting LEGAL ADVICE on any subject matter to being a assigned a lawyer that specialize in TAX LAW if I were to get audited for as low as $16 dollars a month. The drawback is that it only covers citizens of Canada and the United States, but if you would like more information on the plan I have, click HERE.
Now if you’ve been doing network/internet marketing for a while, you know the importance of having a great SYSTEM.
If you haven’t been doing network/internet marketing for a while or you’re looking to get into the industry, the importance of having a system is vital to your success.
Why?
Well let me ask you this. If one of your organs were to fail, would you really feel the after effects? More than likely and it wouldn’t be too fun.
This is why it’s important to have a great system that works in unison with each other. If you were to have a traditional business, you want to make sure that your accounting department, marketing department, legal department, and management are all inline with each other. If not, then there can be some chaos.
In the network/internet marketing arena, you want to make sure that you have an easy to follow system for all the people that you sponsor into the business.
Those that are looking to change their life and never owned a business, need some type of blueprint, or guideline to follow in order for them to stay on the road to success.
But in order for your systems to work whether it be a traditional business or a network marketing home business there must be an open line of COMMUNICATION which is the 7th integrity of the B-I Triangle and will be discussed on the next blog post.
TO YOUR SUCCESS!!!

Hi Sherman,
It’s is important to stay legal with all that you do.After all you can get the desired things without affecting others.
Having a good marketing system that provides support and training is also essential.This way,you save a lot of time or money spent using a proven blueprint.
Thanks for sharing this:) -
The LAW and its traps. The law is designed to trap people when they do wrong. Most law is based on common sense. Therefore, our first line of protection is common sense. Most of us have a bad feeling inside when we know we are getting to close to the line or crossing it. Be WISE and make good decisions based on what we pretty much know is right.
However, when you are in doubt, SEEK ADVICE. You may have friends that are in the know, so start there. Don’t hesitate to hire a lawyer if you are still not sure. When you do, call your local Bar Association Lawyer Referral Service to be referred to a lawyer that should already know the answer. You DO NOT want to pay a lawyer to do the research. It is cheaper to hire a $400 an hour lawyer that knows the answer off the top of his/her head. They know what to do, because they deal with it every day.SYSTEMS. If you don’t have a system to operate from, you don’t have anything to fix when it didn’t work well and you don’t have anything to repeat when you had great success.
You might what to check out a system for organizing your thoughts at http://www.GoldDie.com. You will discover there a Tool for Your Mind. It doesn’t teach you anything new, it just helps you organize all of the stuff you already know.I wish you great success as you work hard. Stan Stan@GoldDie.com

Sherman,
(Flip your sharebar to the right) I love this series of posts. It really lays down the business side of what we do. That’s my bread and butter man. Just had an idea, we should collaborate on some content…

Your article points out some great points including the past ones that you have written that follows up really well with one another. Being left in the dark of not knowing how all the by-laws, the in-laws, the outlaws, of marketing your business or knowing what you can or can’t tax can leave a whole lot of money left out onto the table. But like you stated most of us can’t afford to hire a lawyer because that can add up rather quickly. I practically swear by having a system in my business in place, which has been a life changer for me when I didn’t. Unless someone else has another alternative. But I had nothing but great results thus far from it. Thanks for sharing this Sherman
