Increasing regulations and fewer work hours make a second income sound attractive to professional truck drivers.
This may
be especially true for truckers:
But many questions arise, including these:
We're glad you asked, because that's what we are going to discuss on this page.
Previously, we described the difference between
If
you were injured on the job and unable to work for an
extended period of time, how long would you be able to stay afloat
financially?
What if you had a really serious injury?
What would happen if your paycheck stopped?
That is exactly what happened when Mike fell off the tractor part of his company-owned Class 8 truck years ago. Without going into all of the details, when he was forced to take unpaid time off to get medical attention, his paycheck stopped.
In February 2012 -- and again in his capacity as a professional truck driver -- Mike fell off a flatbed trailer and injured his left arm and side. At the time, we had no idea how long he would be out of work.
Although the Lord spared Mike from having a torn rotator cuff, his injury was so bad that for over a week, he was unable to lift his left arm far enough away from his body to put on deodorant. Vicki had to help him with basic tasks such as putting on clothing and taking a shower. This kind of situation can really shake a man to the core of his soul.
By the Lord's good favor and the help of a sample of a product given to us by a friend, Mike was able to make a full recovery and completely regain full mobility.
In
the months after Mike got well, we got to thinking
about how fragile his trucker income source really is.
The next accident could render him permanently disabled!
We started to ask ourselves questions like these:
Everyone has a written or unwritten list of criteria or attributes for a perfect job or second income source.
While we're going to share our list below, it would be good for you to write down what you're looking for.
You may have a need for only an extra $100 per month.
Or perhaps you're looking for a whole lot more when it comes to opportunities for second income, extra income, supplemental income, etc.
If we were looking to start a business from scratch, we would want one that we could run at/from home and which meets the following criteria:
Before we continue, we must say that we have a certain type of second income opportunity for truckers in mind.
It fulfills to the letter all of the points above.
Speaking of the list, we said that our perfect job meant that we would never have to focus on selling the products ourselves.
If there is no selling, how does one earn money?
We're glad you asked.
Many people don't like to have things sold to them.
But they do want products to help them make their lives better.
Sometimes all it takes is sharing a sample of a product you know works with someone who has a need.
That's what happened in early 2012.
After Mike got hurt, a friend shared a sample of a product that provided support to Mike's muscular system.
After the sample ran out, we ordered more of it.
Since that product worked so well, we began to order other products from the same company.
The products worked.
They basically sold themselves.
The products worked so well for us that we knew that we had to share this information with others to help them.
Furthermore, we realized that we could get paid when others whom we refer to the company buy through us.
Many truckers are already familiar with the concept of getting paid for referrals online.
You've heard of Amazon.com, right? They have an affiliate program.
Well,
take the concept of an affiliate program but
design it around a wide range of consumable
products that people want
to buy and are willing
to share with others for compensation down a
number of levels.
Specifically, you build a network of people whom you've helped, who turn around and help others, who help others, etc.
With the specific program we recommend, you can get paid down to five levels.
What a terrific way to build a second income!
When a few people help a few people who help a few people, you can build a network that can generate a substantial income.
This type of second income could eventually build to the point where it surpasses your truckers income.
