Partnerships can either 10X your business… or become your biggest nightmare.
Let’s be real: Most people rush into partnerships like it’s a Vegas wedding—excited, impulsive, and completely blind to the red flags.
Bad partnerships kill momentum.
Bad partnerships drain energy.
Bad partnerships cost you money.
But a strategic partnership? That’s a scaling machine. That’s how you create an unstoppable wealth-building empire.
So, let’s talk about how to avoid bad partnerships in network marketing and how to build powerful alliances that actually WIN.
Rule #1: No 50/50 Deals—Someone Has to Lead
You ever heard the phrase “Too many chefs in the kitchen”?
That’s what happens in 50/50 partnerships.
When everyone’s in charge, no one’s in charge.
⚠️ Decision-making slows down.
⚠️ Egos clash.
⚠️ The business stalls.
📌 SOMEONE has to have the final say.
✅ In NetWave, we operate on clear leadership roles.
✅ There’s no confusion on who drives decisions.
✅ Everyone plays their position.
🚀 NetWave Rule: The fastest way to kill momentum is letting two people steer the same wheel.
Rule #2: Everyone Has to EARN Into the Deal
🔥 Here’s the hard truth:
Most people want equity without execution.
They want a seat at the table without setting up the chairs.
But in NetWave, we don’t hand out golden tickets.
📌 Everyone has to prove their value FIRST.
✅ You bring leads? You’re in.
✅ You build systems? You’re in.
✅ You close deals? You’re in.
🚀 NetWave Rule: No free rides. If you want in, you EARN your way in.
Rule #3: Contracts Over Conversations—If It’s Not Signed, It Never Happened
Nothing destroys friendships faster than a business dispute.
⚠️ “I thought we agreed on X?”
⚠️ “That wasn’t what we talked about…”
⚠️ “I deserve more than what we originally planned.”
📌 If it’s not in writing, it’s NOT real.
✅ Every NetWave partnership is locked in with crystal-clear contracts.
✅ Every expectation is written out.
✅ Every “what if” scenario is covered.
🚀 NetWave Rule: Agreements don’t live in memory. They live on paper.
Rule #4: Put Your Own Money in If You Can
Nothing makes someone more committed than THEIR money on the line.
⚠️ If someone has zero financial risk, they’re way more likely to walk away when things get tough.
⚠️ If someone has skin in the game, they’ll fight harder to make it work.
📌 Even if it’s a small amount, both sides should have financial investment.
🚀 NetWave Rule: Partnerships work better when everyone has something to lose.
How to Spot Red Flags BEFORE You Partner
Here’s how we vet potential partners in NetWave before locking in a deal:
✅ Background Check: Look at their business history.
✅ Talk to Past Investors or Partners: What’s their reputation?
✅ Review Their Reviews: Are people happy working with them?
✅ Have a Lawyer Review the Deal: Legal protection is a MUST.
✅ Call 10 References: What do people who worked with them say?
🔥 If someone hesitates on any of these? 🚩🚩🚩
🚀 NetWave Rule: The best partnerships come from proven trust, not blind hope.
Money Changes People—Prepare for It
Here’s a brutal truth:
💡 Money doesn’t change people. It reveals them. 💡
You will see:
⚠️ Who gets lazy when the cash starts flowing.
⚠️ Who turns greedy when they see bigger numbers.
⚠️ Who suddenly “forgets” previous agreements when they think they can get more.
📌 Expect it. Prepare for it. Protect yourself from it.
🚀 NetWave Rule: People change, but contracts don’t. Lock in agreements EARLY.
Even With All the Right Moves, Partnerships Can STILL Go South
💡 You can do everything right and STILL have a partnership fail.
💡 You can vet people perfectly and STILL have them change on you.
But that’s the game.
🔥 Smart entrepreneurs don’t avoid partnerships. They just build them differently.
And THAT is why NetWave does partnerships the right way.
🚀 We eliminate the fluff.
🚀 We protect our business from dead weight.
🚀 We stack A-Players who actually perform.
So if you’re tired of:
❌ Partnerships that drain your time
❌ People who overpromise and underdeliver
❌ Deals that slow down growth instead of accelerating it
Then you’re the type of person we want.
