Where “it” started – Thanks to Carnegie & Hill

During the 1930′s, Napolean Hill wrote a book called “Think and Grow Rich”. It was basically the foundation for the network marketing industry to what it has become today. His book was written from direct inspiration by Andrew Carnegie’s magic formula for success.

Andrew Carnegie was the first drive behind Napoleon’s fortune as he (Napoleon) published his book in 1960 and started an entire empire which, I believe, still exists today. After Carnegie disclosed his secret to Napoleon, hundreds of other men told Napoleon how they made their fortunes, based off of Carnegie’s secret. Some of these men include John D. Rockefeller, Theodore Roosevelt, Henry Ford, Charles M. Schwab, Thomas A. Edison, and Woodrow Wilson, to name a few.

What’s most fascinating is that most of what the book talks about still holds true today. Of course technology effects marketing but the core values still remain in tact.

This book is a great read if you want to understand the basic, core fundamentals that many of the early millionaires built their fame on. Additionally, it will give you some serious insight on how this industry started.
