The Business of Business

Screenshot_4.png

The first time I ran across a Valuetainment video, I was intrigued by Patrick Bet-David. He just didn't "feel" like the kind of guy I would have expected to have made millions and millions of dollars, and I've simply never gotten a good "vibe" off the guy. Still, from what I understood, he acquired his wealth from starting an insurance company, and from where I stand, you have to give an individual their due, regardless of whatever personal impressions you might have formed based on your superficial observations.

Then this morning I saw the video embedded below, and I said, "Eureka! That's why your instincts were telling you not to trust the picture you saw being painted and your gut never lost its skepticism." (I'm not all that impressed by an individual who gets rich by starting a company where he doesn't have to pay his workers.)

The information I found after checking on what's claimed in the video indicates that... Patrick Bet-David, the founder of PHP Agency Inc., has made his mark in both the insurance and multi-level marketing (MLM) realms. Here are come details...

  1. Insurance/Network Marketing (MLM):
    • PHP (People Helping People) Agency Inc., established in 2009, primarily focuses on selling life insurance and annuity services to customers across the United States.
    • PHP Agency employs an MLM.
    • Patrick Bet-David has been a vocal advocate for network marketing.
    • His personal experience with network marketing began when he was recruited while working at Bally Total Fitness. A sergeant from the Army, who had transitioned to network marketing, was making significantly more income in this field. This exposure sparked Bet-David's interest and led him to explore the world of MLM.
Patrick Bet-David's journey exemplifies the intersection of these two domains, demonstrating that success can be achieved through a combination of the two.
