Get Paid Today - MLM is Dead

Marcello asked:


And how much is it estimated he/she is making and is worth?
More specifically, who is the wealthiest person who has MADE their money in MLM?

I assume there is at least one famous person since MLMers proclaim it to be the greatest business on earth.

Somehow I don’t think the fact that Trump spoke at a convention for ACN means he is doing MLM. Funny stuff though.
The owners of the parent corporations are not what I am asking about. I am talking about someone who signed up with an MLM and made his/her millions. Thanks.

I am thinking of selling Xango and wonder if anyone has had direct experience with selling products. Is it easy to sell? How long did it take to build a network of people? What is the most money did you make? How long did it take for you to make this kind of money? What are the downsides? I appreciate your feedback. Thank you.

I just joined a brand new MLM and no one has really explained how to recruit or market the company and/or product. The more research I have done the more confused I get. The internet is full of people selling their way, but if I had a lot of money to start, I wouldn’t have put my hopes into this company. And I don’t need more answers that will cost me hundreds of dollars.

Marcello asked:


I want to hear from any person in MLM / Network Marketing that has ever sold enough of their product or service to make a decent full time living (say at least $50k/year in earnings) before ever recruiting someone into their down-line.

The obvious nature of the question is to help refute that MLMers only really make money by recruiting. Say it ain’t so. Also, what product or service did you sell?
Aircoole - see Avon.
Jay S - you hit the nail on the head.

VeggieCandleLady asked:


Do people REALLY know what they’re talking about? And have all those against these means of creating an at home income, really have personal experience? Or is it something they have “heard” or “Assumed” ?
Is it that people want something for nothing? So who’s fault is that? Are people basically lazy? Who’s fault is that? Having your own business something that has to be worked at. If you were going to rent a space and have a store front, would you get that for no money? Do people think that customers are just going to flock into your store just because it’s “you”? This is really a no brainer. Things are too easy for Americans. Always someone elses fault and they want something for nothing. What are your thoughts?

I’m dealing with a recruiter for a MLM (multi-level marketing) company that I’m not interested in. I want to tell them I’m not interested but I’m looking for a site that has questions that they’re going to ask me and responses to those questions.

My main reasons for not going into this: 1. I have a good job and am able to support a family of 8 on my income alone. 2. I don’t believe that anyone can make money but sitting around their house all day long as your Region Vice President claims. 3. Why do none of your people seem to have a college, much less high-school, education? 4. Why do you seem more interested in recruiting people than selling a product?

I would like to know how they’re likely to reply to those questions and how I should counter. I can just say, “No, I’m not interested and keep saying it until they give up, but I want to give a good reason too.”

Marcello asked:


D - post the question about franchising and MLM yourself and I will happily answer it. Or, search it on google, OR search through my Q&A as I have discussed it before.

As far as this question, it was clearly satirical. Anyone offended had it go over their head.

As far as real estate being down in areas, its always up and down in areas. Its never up or down. Smart investors make money when the market is up or down. It merely means its a buyer’s or a seller’s market, both are profitable if done right.

I am wanting to find out your opinions about your experience with these sites. Tell me what you liked and disliked about them, how much they cost, your perceived value for the money, and ease of use for posting and viewing classifieds. spamming me with your link will be reported, I want info from real people, not just cut and paste ad responses. thank you!

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?

Beelzebub asked:


You always hear people in MLM talk about how brilliant the system is because it uses leverage and that you get a little effort from a lot of people and everyone makes money.

Is this not the most idiotic thing you have heard? if everyone is doing only a little effort conceivably not selling enough on their own effort to at least provide an income, then it is physically impossible for everyone to be earning at the same time. The only way it works if is the pyramid continually grows. People in MLM say that the people at the bottom should leverage as well and get the same results as those at the top, but essentially that only means that at no point ever in the MLM model does EVERYONE benefit, there are always people at the bottom getting no value.

Are people in MLM that stupid, or is it that there are enough people with no concept of math that are constantly seeing MLM for the first time?
