Get Paid Today - MLM is Dead

MY Y!A asked:


What do you look for in a home based business opportunity?

Do you seek a product or service you will enjoy sharing?

Do you study the compensation plan before joining?

Do you understand what your target market is?

Do you seek a mentor who will provide one on one training as needed?

Do you plan to become a mentor?

Would you join an MLM company based on yours or someone else’s greed?

Before you answer this question, answer it without talking about network marketing or the company or the features, benefits or mention your company…ONLY talk about how it’s changed your personal life style, your personal growth, your family or debt problems etc. Talk about YOU.
For those of you who experienced or had a hard time, with some probing, I can find out why that occured. Always and I mean always honor the relationship… therefore, ONLY SUCCESSFUL people answer the question.

I am seeking people that can recommend for or against the MLM consultants you find when you do a search. What are your experiences? Good, Bad, ugly.. I am trying to avoid the snakes that I am sure hang around…

Thanks,

Lets say for example a respectable MLM company sells juice made from a certain type of berry. And lets say 10,000 distributors can easily handle the demand for this tasty treat (that also cures cancer). Do they not see it as a problem if they sign up 20,000 or 30,000 people into this great opportunity?

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?

I am making money hand over fist with my MLM company and sponsoring people and selling product all over the place. However, I am still living out of my car because I have not CHOSEN to live in an apartment. People in my downline, who should be looking up to me because I represent a successful MLM upline, are talking behind my back and I know it. What is their problem?

Marcello asked:


I just want to hear about one MLM company, just one, where the emphasis is on sales, not on recruiting.
Let me clarify, I am in no way interested in joining any MLM, so don’t bother. I am merely interested in hearing if any MLM’s exist that actually are about sales, and not a pyramid scheme. And please, don’t tell me focusing predominantly on recruiting to make money is not pyramiding.
Mexico4me, i think you need learn what leverage actually is rather than just accepting a term from your MLM buddies.

In your silly example you merely transfered the hours worked to your downline without changing the total hours worked. Suddenly we are to believe that you are still making the same amount of money working no hours yet your downline makes money as well? So because you merely spread the hours worked out among more people the company is paying out more money? Right. Do the math.

This is my EXACT point. MLM is set up with the mentality that its better to make money by recruiting people than it is to work hard.

You are delusional if you suggest that is about sales first. You have said in prior answers that no one sells enough personal volume to make a living without a downline and that is precisely why MLM is flawed. Its about making money recruiting (a pyramid) not about sales. The fact that some product is sold doesn’t negate that fact.
Sunny, saying MLM is part franchising is merely MLM tag lines, aka propaganda to justify to the naive.

Think about what you are suggesting. Most people are not sales driven, yet you are telling them its the same as a franchise.

Can you actually imagine a franchise operation that didn’t first sell product? Gee, your new franchise is not moving any product, here is the answer, just open up more franchises! Brilliant.

Only in MLM are foolish principals like this accepted as intelligent.
