My name is Rick Brown and this is the story behind Brownmob Marketing -
I’m a 45 year old husband and a father to a 9 and an 11-year old who keep us pretty busy with sports and school events. My family and I enjoy the outdoors, we love the beach and the mountains, and we do a lot of camping when the weather is right. Dogs are also a part of our lives - we spend a lot of time with our dog Otis – a Boston Terrier.
I’m a full-time Soldier in the Army, with 18+ years of service. I’m looking toward retirement in just a couple of years.
I’ve been involved, part-time, in network marketing since before joining the Army, and on-and-off, for about 20 years.
I'll admit, I'm a horrible “salesman”, and I never liked the approach of bugging my friends and family and trying to convince them they needed what I was selling. Always seemed kinda bass-ackwards to me and it's something I won't do.
Early in 2007, my wife and I started discussing our plans for my post-Army career and we made a decision to concentrate on the network marketing industry full-time, due, in large part, to our past successes and what the industry can do for regular people like us who approach it with the right vision and mindset.
But we also decided to take a little different approach. First off, instead of jumping on the latest miracle product or the newest hot upstart company, we decided to find something that fit into our lifestyle. A product we already use and a company that shares the same values and business ideals as us. Something that could join our lifestyle, instead of the other way around.
We also fully understood that to be successful in this industry, we really needed to learn and understand, not only the psychology of the industry and of the marketing process, but more importantly, ourselves and our thought processes.
That's what led me to shift my focus from our primary NM business and to focus on learning everything I could about marketing and mindset.
What I learned is that to be successful in anything - business, love, life, sports, whatever - you have to live a life that gives evidence to what you believe - not to make money.
So, I started focusing, not on getting rich, but on getting WISDOM!
That's where Brownmob Marketing comes in.
As one of the "Average Joes" in this industry, I wanted to pass along what I was learning, to more people.
Now let's be clear - I'm not a NM guru. I'm no business genius. I'm a regular guy, a Soldier, a father, a husband, and I don't have time for, nor am I interested in, dealing in B-S.
I simply want to build a business based on INTEGRITY.
The thing is - there's plenty of success to go around, but for some reason, the 2-3% who know the secrets of getting there, don't like to share what they know. It's fear, I suppose.
Trust me, I've been in combat, I do not fear what the others will say becasue I'm sharing the "secrets of success".
So my mission is to become more responsible for more people - to help more people understand the path to a successful life - whatever that includes.
I want to share with you, what I know, what I have learned, and what I continue to learn, about marketing, sales psychology, mindset, leadership and all the different components that go into being successful at whatever it is you want to be successful at.
Some of this material may be a bit too raw for some. Some of it is not for the timid or for those who are looking for a quick fix.
It's not for those who are looking to become millionaires overnight or for those seeking a business where someone else does all the work for you.
It IS for those who are committed to success.
It IS for those who want to study wisdom of the ages.
Is IS for those who want TRUTH.
It IS for those who are willing to act as if failure were not an option.
Be Great!
Rick
