52donnie asked:


I believe in the concept of MLM marketing but in my search of MLM companies I find that the products are either a bunch of garbage or they are overpriced from the point of origin. An MLM company will charge a distributor a so-called wholesale price for a product when in fact the price is higher than it should ever be at the retail level.
Is there a genuine MLM company that has a product that isn’t overpriced at it’s point of origin,–a product that can be demonstrated to others?

Just to make it clear. I feel this way because they focus mainly on recruiting others (sponsoring) and on residual income. That is exactly what MLM companies focus on. It aounds like a complete pyramid scam.

When I’m talking to one of their recruiters, what questions should I ask them?
One of my closest friend got suckered in this yor.net MLM company. I feel bad for him and need to talk to him but don’t know what to say. I don’t think he realizes he is being brainwashed.

Why do people in MLM always say the fact that its legal means its a good business?

Beelzebub asked:


Whenever I ask a question in regards to why people in MLM think its a viable business opportunity, they inevitably come back with information showing me why its legal.

OK, I got it…I am not going to go to jail by getting into MLM. Now show me why its viable by actually PROVING people are making all this money, by actually PROVING that MLM companies sell massive amounts of product to people who are not reps themselves, and PROVING that its possible to have a network that can continue to grow past 20 levels deep.

Can anyone in MLM actually do this?

Ed asked:


MLM - MultiLevel Marketing also know as NM - Network Marketing. Just want to look at what distributors usually have to sign in those companies when they pay their application fee to get the starter kit. Any general MLM company would do, doesn’t have to be anything specific. Examples of MLM Companies - Amway/Quixtar, Herbalife, USANA, Longevity, Prepaid Legal Services, etc…

Do people in MLM (Network Marketing) honestly think all business is a pyramid like MLM?

Marcello asked:


You always hear them give the line that all business is set up like a pyramid to justify that MLM is built on recruiting people.

While real business has fewer people in high earning roles, it seems MLMers miss the very obvious point that even a lowly janitor at McDonald’s doesn’t have to recruit 5 other janitors to make a living wage.

Do people in MLM really think its the same? Do they really miss the point that real business doesn’t have to keep hiring people for infinity to keep making money for its employees?

It just seems such an obvious difference, yet it makes no sense that people in MLM are convinced it is the same.
Andre - while you are correct about the legality, let’s not let the absurdidty of the whole thing get lost on us.

The fact that MLM gets around being illegal and not a straight pyramid scheme is ONLY becuase there are products and services available to be sold by the reps; however, the fact is nealry all MLMers focus their attention on recruiting others instead of sales - meaning although it is legal for all intents and purposes it is virtually the same.

If MLM companies wanted to put the focus on personal sales instead of recruiting then how can you expalin that ALL MLM compensation plans allow you to move up the ranks ONLY by recruiting others. You can be the worlds best salesperson but unless you recruit other people you can’t obtain the top rank in any MLM compensation plan.

Let’s get serious, they are the same, depsite anyone considering it “legal” or not.
L.F.Heap - you spent spent your entire answer describing any sales company.

Evidently the point of this question was lost on you because if MLM was focused on sales and not recruiting then there would be no issue.

The question was in reference to the fact that MLM push recruiting, and weigh it as FAR more important than personal sales, and the evidence is in the MLM compensation plans.
