IS MULTI LEVEL MARKETING A SCAM

A lot of people have been asking this question on this forum recently. Some even want to know if anybody is making money from network marketing. The reason for creating this thread is therefore to:
1. let those people know what Network Marketing a.k.a Multi Level Marketing is
2. Benefits of MLM
3. Introduce a good Network Company to those interested
4. Show them how they can make money from MLM
5. Give them the necessarily support
You will also know why a product can be effective for more one ailment.
Let’s start.
1. WHAT IS MLM/NETWORK MARKETING?

To help you understand what network marketing is, I want to first explain to you what it is not.

Network marketing is not a pyramid scheme. For those who doesn’t know what pyramid scheme is, I’ll explain. Pyramids are programs just like chain letters. You remember those papers that contains message that attempts to convince you, the recipient to photocopy a certain number of the message and then distribute to as many people as you can, and threatens you, the recipient with bad luck you “breaks the chain” and refuses to adhere to the conditions set out in the letter. Today, chain letters are no more letters. They are now sent through social network sites (Whatsapp, BBM broadcast asking you to forward a certain message to 10, 20 people as the case. Even some posts on some facebook fan pages, asking you to like or comment on a particular post, that if you don’t, something bad may happen to you).

In this pyramid scheme, people just invest money based on the promise that other people are going to put in money too, that will filtrate back to them and somehow, they will get rich by the time they sleep and wake up the next morning. A pyramid is strictly a money game; hence it has no basis in real commerce, because there is no product involved at all, but just money changing hands. Today, many modern-days pyramids may have a product(s), but just to disguise the money game.

Having said that, I’ll like to tell you why network business is a legitimate business.
Firstly, it is based on providing people with real, legitimate products that they need and at a good price. Yes, some people do make money from Network Marketing but that comes from the effort they put into building their own business of selling products and services. Let’s not forget that money is built around products and services. Money does not grow wings and fly into people’s pocket. Pyramids are illegal and based on taking advantage of people, because majority of them have no product(s). So for a person to actually make money from it, other people must lose their money too. But in Network Marketing, each person can multiply his or her efforts, skills and talents by helping other to become successful as well. Network marketing has proved itself as part of the new economy and a preferred way to do business around the world.

Network Marketing is a serious business done by serious people. It is not a get rich quick system. Eventhough some people do make large amount of money from it very quickly, it is not based on luck but by following some very basic, yet dynamic principles. All that is required of you to be successful in Network Marketing is just to follow simple, proven and duplicable system that the good companies provide.

The key that unlocks your success mostly and easily in Network Marketing is LEVERAGING. You can leverage your time, effort and resource. Instead of working hard tirelessly over long hours of the day, you can leverage on the time and effort of other people by sponsoring them (recruit) in to the company, in that way you can be paid and earning residual income on their efforts. J. Paul Getty, who created one of the greatest fortunes, in his words said, “I would rather make I percent on the efforts of 100 people than 100 percent on my own effort.” Simply put, he preferred to leverage on the effort of 100 people and getting $1 each from them to make $100, than him working his butt out to make out to make the $100 on his own. Which is better? The former, you would agree with me. Not only will he have to work a lesser hour to make the same amount, but also have a free time for pleasure, and also helping those other people to make some money as well. This very concept is the solid foundation one which Network Marketing is built. The smart ones will always make money from it, while the some intelligent folks may never make money from it due to the analysis-paralysis factor.

For instance, most successful businessmen building a Network Marketing business do so in a very organized way. They work for a few dedicated hours every week to grow their business to have a long life span. What next do they do? They sponsor other people and teach those people how to sell the company product(s) and sponsor others who will in turn duplicate the process. By helping the people they sponsored directly to sponsor others, they are duplicating themselves. As this process continues, they are creating a compound growth that can bring hundreds or thousands of other people to join the business. That is the power of leveraging. By leveraging your time to helping others successful, you will in turn earn an income from all their efforts. That is why it is important that when you register with any Networking Company you are expected to recruit/sponsor down-lines.

Probably, there was something about your business approach. Sorry b about that.

One thing I have come to notice about networking business is that recruiters try to recruit prospects by building their mind on high hopes without enlightening them properly about the business. So the new recruits after joining the business start to feel frustrated and easily lose interest when they don't see what they were promised.

I have actually witnessed a situation where a prospect was being told all manner of lies just to get her to register. I shook my head and thought how frustrated she would be when she joins the business and realized that was lied to.

I have a wonderful team that is ready to educate and support any prospect who wants to come on board and be a successful net-worker. Joining a good is one thing, having an organized and supporting team is another.

Anybody willing to know more about my company should kindly drop his/her email. I'll surely get in touch.\

Happy networking, good more earning!

I marvel at your existence as a person, if at one time you speak Highly about something and at another you disapprove over same topic you tried pitching to people then I would say you have no HONOUR.
When I utter a word, I stand to defend it to the last even if it threatens my existence.
Just your comment about my thread brought it down you screaming "it is MLM joor".
Same you in time past has done this wonderful write up, then I must say you have no HONOUR!

@G12
if you don’t know what to comment on people's thread wouldn't it be wise that you move on rather than "bad-mouthing" the person?
I'm so "mad" at you cos I had a wonderful thread going before you dropped that bomb that brought the MODs my way.
If all you live for is to bring down people then you are best described in the picture below...
I pray that you will succeed in all your endeavour, I've forgiven you.
