It's kinda really hard making good money with Network marketing... have a friend been trying to get me into one called Trevo or something, it's like a can of drink sold at an expensive amount.. my brother inlaw has his room filled with toilet soaps from Gnld that he desperately tries to sell everyday to his Co workers and everybody else. 5 Likes |

Well there is no gain saying the fact that a lot of Nigerians have had their own often bitter experiences with the whole network marketing saga.
But World's richest billionaire, Bill Gates said "if i would be given a chance to start all over again, i would choose NETWORK MARKETING" meaning even if you take all his billions today, with network marketing he will bounce back to be world's richest man again. How inspiring!!! If you must know, network marketing is the reason why Bill sleeps and wakes up everyday $4 million richer, doing nothing.
That is to tell you that regardless your opinions, network marketing is the koko when it comes to financial freedom. Now, I respect your skepticism though about this particular business concept, and why most Nigerians don't want to have anything to do with anything that appears to be like a networking stuff, or like they put it "MLM" (even if the scheme is only wearing the monkey jacket of networking,most Nigerians immediately take to their heels) taking cognizance of your respective experiences, but i will like to ask you this question - does the fact that cars are prone to having accidents stop you from buying one if you have the money? Like in debates that year, 'i leave that question for my opponents to answer' lol.
Friends the truth is, if you really want to experience a difference in something, you just have to try out something new because like the popular adage goes "you can't expect to have a different result when you keep doing the same thing" or however it is put..lol.
But what I'm trying to buttress here is that in a network marketing system, you work with people and like Pam Moore said "you can never go wrong by investing in communities and the human beings within them". In every network of people, your success is assured by the joint effort of everybody which is so much better because personally i would love to earn 1% of everybody's effort than 100% of my own effort. I don't know about you but that's what i would prefer and i think you should. Networking and investment always go pari pasu, meaning haven created a network, there has to be an investment into that network, which is but a token to what you stand to gain back in a matter of time.
Network marketing really is what we all need to get to that status where every person in the system is financially independent as a result of the joint efforts of team members.
Now let's look at the statistics, 75% of America's economy is composed of small and medium scale enterprises which are a small network of people serving as a feeder matrix for the bigger dogs. Lemme not get too technical here, but basically that is why till tomorrow America's economy will remain strong because the cash flow in her system circulates within people, unlike here in our beloved country where some persons are ontop of the bullion van while others are.... Well you know the rest...lol.
Now upon my critical observations over time, you will realise that the most parts of the complains about network marketing comes from networks which often time are engaged in the buying and selling of products. Now when members cannot meet a particular sale volume for the month, you see that they are not giving their due reward or worse still are made to retrogress haven attained some level before. And that's the part that's really not cool. And exactly why the complains come.
Another thing is that most Nigerians fail to critically consider and re-consider the sustainability plan of these different networks springing up on a daily. Once the offer seems enticing to them,they just jump on it, without checking to see if the firm has the potential to be sustained over time. This is one major thing i look out for before joining. And you should.
Networking in itself isn't such a bad thing to try out today. All you have to do is ensure you first carry out the basic check of certain criteria. And i can stand to tell you that authoritatively that although there still exist the bad eggs, but not all networks are the same.
I studied chemical engineering uniben, done with nysc (served in rivers state) nd was cds president of my cds group. I joined a network that has really been a blessing to me and today, some of my cds members and ex president colleagues as well joined in and are making their money for themselves. Here, there is no buying and selling of any products whatsoever (because i particularly hated the thought of moving up and down the street trying to market any products) and there is no monthly sale volume you have to meet up with. Also, here, overtaking is very much allowed unlike some networks where you never grow past the person that introduced you. I personally overtook my upline so i know what I'm talking about. And here, we are a TEAM. As at when i told the principal of the school i served with about the network, she immediately joined and also registered 6 members of her family and aside her salary,she's making her cool money too. She even told me of her first alert that she got and i could see the excitement all over her face.
Now I'm not saying all these to try to convince anyone to come join.No. i believe that our lives is a product of the choices we make and that the choices we make today goes a long to shapen our future tomorrow. All networks are not the same, u just have to be in the right one. That's my take. The only difference between a rich and a poor man in our society today is opportunity. Make wise use of the ones that come your way today. Remember if you don't make up your mind to be at the top, nobody will take you there. Joining a network today can make the whole process faster for you.

/ You can never get rich from MLM. Most of those companies are foreign MLMs marketed as subsidiaries in Nigeria. You may think you are in Level 4 in the pyramid not knowing that you are in sublevel 30 by the time the distribution gets to the parent company. Don't be fooled by the appendages: Director, MD, Associates. You are being hustled. Sooner than later you will hit leads brickwall and be burned out. They are counting on the turnover from gullible fellows. \ 15 Likes 1 Share |

Naijasinglegirl: A friend approached me to say she had a brilliant idea on how I can get rich quickly. She was going to give me a new range of consumer products that sells thrice the cost price. I asked if that is all and she explained that it was some sort of ladder marketing. The more sellers I introduce under the scheme, the higher my profit…eventually, I will be eligible for perks like a fancy car and a trip to Dubai or the Caribbeans. As much as one of my aspirations for this year is to travel outside Nigeria even if it’s Cotonou, I started walking away.
You see, I have had a bitter experience with this multi-level marketing, network marketing or whatever it is called and I swore seven years ago never to involve myself again no matter how desperate I get. Eight years ago, my family literally invested all we had in one IFFA multilevel marketing scheme that operated under the umbrella of Diamond Bank. That was when I first heard of multi-level marketing and my dad thought the idea was genius. Who wouldn’t when the package came with a customised debit card for each participant to cash out their ‘millions of naira’ months later. We sold most of our shares in the stock market to fund this and introduced everybody we knew to our ‘tree’. I remember when a rich uncle gave me my twenty thousand naira and my dad used all of it to get the IFFA forms so I could issue out to my classmates.
We spent weekends attending nerve-racking motivational rallies held by the stinking rich organisers of IFFA who rode on the ignorance of people like us to get to where they are. By the time the scales fell from our eyes, we had lost all we had including the goodwill of those we introduced. All we had left were thousands of IFFA registration forms we were now using to wrap melon seeds at home and debit cards littered like a pack of cards around the house. And where were the so -called organisers? London, today; Paris, tomorrow; America during the weekend; Because they worked hard and persevered unlike our lazy asses.
That was how a friend I met during NYSC told me on the day of POP that he is going to stay behind in the village he served to sell coffee under one multi level marketing scheme! He was trying to convince me to stay and join the coffee scheme too since my house rent had a 2-year expiration period. That was a 2’1 graduate of Electrical Engineering who started his service year with an aspiration of working with a multinational company and he’s was just going to abandon that beautiful dream to sell bitter coffee after he had been brainwashed. I mean who even drinks coffee in Nigeria? Talk more of rural areas? I don’t know the story ended cos I cut off friendship with him after NYSC to avoid post POP stories that touch the heart and soul. Same way I feel about GNLD and co. I don’t mean to knock anyone’s hustle but I refuse to be swayed by the vacation photos on Instagram of those who hammered by networking others 2000 years ago. Never ever! Currently, anyone who approaches my family house and mentions the words, ‘network marketing’ or ‘multi-level stands the risk of being stoned to death. What are your experiences with multi-level marketing?

It was in another state, so i travelled there well dressed and prepared for the interview When i got there i was shocked to the bones when they asked me to pay 180,000 to register (like i would even show up if i could cough out that kind of money on the spot) And also get 5people to register under me (who do i know that can afford that amount money?) And those five people must get 5people each to register under them (jesu christi) before i even get to level one And the cycle continues.

Well there is no gain saying the fact that a lot of Nigerians have had their own often bitter experiences with the whole network marketing saga.
But World's richest billionaire, Bill Gates said "if i would be given a chance to start all over again, i would choose NETWORK MARKETING" meaning even if you take all his billions today, with network marketing he will bounce back to be world's richest man again. How inspiring!!! If you must know, network marketing is the reason why Bill sleeps and wakes up everyday $4 million richer, doing nothing.
That is to tell you that regardless your opinions, network marketing is the koko when it comes to financial freedom. Now, I respect your skepticism though about this particular business concept, and why most Nigerians don't want to have anything to do with anything that appears to be like a networking stuff, or like they put it "MLM" (even if the scheme is only wearing the monkey jacket of networking,most Nigerians immediately take to their heels) taking cognizance of your respective experiences, but i will like to ask you this question - does the fact that cars are prone to having accidents stop you from buying one if you have the money? Like in debates that year, 'i leave that question for my opponents to answer' lol.
Friends the truth is, if you really want to experience a difference in something, you just have to try out something new because like the popular adage goes "you can't expect to have a different result when you keep doing the same thing" or however it is put..lol.
But what I'm trying to buttress here is that in a network marketing system, you work with people and like Pam Moore said "you can never go wrong by investing in communities and the human beings within them". In every network of people, your success is assured by the joint effort of everybody which is so much better because personally i would love to earn 1% of everybody's effort than 100% of my own effort. I don't know about you but that's what i would prefer and i think you should. Networking and investment always go pari pasu, meaning haven created a network, there has to be an investment into that network, which is but a token to what you stand to gain back in a matter of time.
Network marketing really is what we all need to get to that status where every person in the system is financially independent as a result of the joint efforts of team members.
Now let's look at the statistics, 75% of America's economy is composed of small and medium scale enterprises which are a small network of people serving as a feeder matrix for the bigger dogs. Lemme not get too technical here, but basically that is why till tomorrow America's economy will remain strong because the cash flow in her system circulates within people, unlike here in our beloved country where some persons are ontop of the bullion van while others are.... Well you know the rest...lol.
Now upon my critical observations over time, you will realise that the most parts of the complains about network marketing comes from networks which often time are engaged in the buying and selling of products. Now when members cannot meet a particular sale volume for the month, you see that they are not giving their due reward or worse still are made to retrogress haven attained some level before. And that's the part that's really not cool. And exactly why the complains come.
Another thing is that most Nigerians fail to critically consider and re-consider the sustainability plan of these different networks springing up on a daily. Once the offer seems enticing to them,they just jump on it, without checking to see if the firm has the potential to be sustained over time. This is one major thing i look out for before joining. And you should.
Networking in itself isn't such a bad thing to try out today. All you have to do is ensure you first carry out the basic check of certain criteria. And i can stand to tell you that authoritatively that although there still exist the bad eggs, but not all networks are the same.
I studied chemical engineering uniben, done with nysc (served in rivers state) nd was cds president of my cds group. I joined a network that has really been a blessing to me and today, some of my cds members and ex president colleagues as well joined in and are making their money for themselves.

Once the offer seems enticing to them,they just jump on it, without checking to see if the firm has the potential to be sustained over time. Now when the network crashes tomorrow, you see members who fell victims come out to generalize that anything called network marketing is a scam, trying to even poison the minds of those who are interested in trying out a network for themselves, when they have not done their basic fundamental ground work and analysis. I consider such claims totally outrageous. So for me, sustainability is one major thing i look out for before joining any network regardless her enticing offer. And you should too.
Networking in itself isn't such a bad thing to try one out today. All you have to do is ensure you first carry out the basic check of certain criteria. And i can stand to tell you that authoritatively that although there still exist the bad eggs, but not all networks are the same.
I studied chemical engineering uniben, done with nysc (served in rivers state) nd was cds president of my cds group. Still in port Harcourt, I joined a network that has really been a blessing to me and today, some of my cds members and ex president colleagues as well joined in and are making their money for themselves, totally forgotten their days of skepticism. Here, there is no buying and selling of any products whatsoever (because i particularly hated the thought of moving up and down the street trying to market any products) and there is no monthly sale volume you have to meet up with. Also, here, overtaking is very much allowed unlike some networks where you never grow past the person that introduced you, because of their pyramid set up. I personally overtook my upline so i know exactly what I'm talking about. And here, we are a TEAM. As at when i told the principal of the school i served with about the network, she immediately joined and also registered 6 members of her family same day and aside her salary,she's making her cool money too. She even told me of her first alert that she got and i could see the excitement all over her face.
Now I'm not saying all these to try to convince anyone to come join.No. i believe that our lives is a product of the choices we make and that the choices we make today goes a long to shapen our future tomorrow. All networks are not the same, u just have to be in the right one. That's my take. The only difference between a rich and a poor man in our society today is opportunity. Make wise use of the ones that come your way today so you can have a shelter for your future tomorrow. Remember if you don't make up your mind to be at the top, nobody will take you there. and Joining a network today can make the whole process to the top faster for you.

Bill didn't specifically specify if he would be controlling the MLM (i.e starting the company), or he will be at the other end of the chain (i.e joining the network someone else created). Well the fact is that in most of the MLM seminars, they also do downgrade their competing MLM schemes and also say good shits more than the ones you have stated above. As in ehn those guys get one kind sweet mouth. I am not really saying MLM is bad though, but it will be better if people are allowed to know and understand what they are in for. Not when they first lie to you about some mouth watering job, and then you get there they start preaching to you that working for someone is as lame as shit, and that doctors and lawyers make peanuts when they work for others (meanwhild I don't understand if the MLM scheme translates to you working for your self, since you still have to deliver your earnings to someone).

People fail in mlm cos they feel it is a get rich quick scheme and some do pyramids.
To succeed you have to know the company you deal with and treat it as your own business.
Some mlm styles do not require selling of products, it only needs your social network and does not use the pyramid scheme. I will not call names Sha.
Nigerians fail in mlm but instead of changing strategy, they keep doing same things and keep failing. They do not even read and understand their company's policy.
To succeed, quit the marketing, just use your network.

After my Nysc, i stayed back in Porthacourt really hoping to get a good job n settle down...so one of diz days of job-hunting...I stumbled on diz wall advert dt says "Can you work in NNPC? Call 080******* #200,000 per month" Trust me, I was a bit skeptical abt it bt a part of me cudnt jst ignore d 6 digits figure n considering d fact dt i was new to d job hunting market...I immediately cald d number, it was a guy, he told me to send my name,e-mail and location to his phone right away...again i felt a little uneasy abt d fact dt i av to send my house address to som1 i dnt even knw...den a part of me reminded me if truly i needed dt "oyel money". So i sent d details to him...#2 weeks after# I was invited for an interview with "NNPC" at a stipulated address. I immediately took my white shirt and black trousers to d drycleaner, Ironed and well starched. On d day of interview, got up as early as 5am in order to beat traffic, tuk ma bath...by 6:10am i was out of d house so i can get to d venue b4 9am which ws wen d interview will commence. Traffic dt day ws crazy, i felt lyk i cud use dt my "GTA cheat-Rocketman" to get to d interview venue as fast as possible. To cut d long story short, i got to d stipulated address, i saw old men, old women, young men who were on suit n tie jst lyk me, it ws a mixed multitude. I cudnt rightly place wot it lukd lyk, a church crusade? Agbero meeting? Community elders' council? I was confused den i quickly walked towards one of d guys on suit n asked him if he was also here for d NNPC interview, he sed no o. His was GTB. i was shocked to my bones. At dt time, i knew somtin ws wrong...I told d guy, i was leaving, e persuaded me to wait so we can see wot diz ppl were up to...dt ws d annoying part; succumbing to his persuasion. To cut d long story short, it ws after 5hours of dia fruitless rant dt i realised i've been tricked to come for a GNLD seminar. I just "jejely" carried myself and somnolently went back to my house embittered. ![cheesy](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/cheesy.png) I had this exact experience with those GNLD people too o....just exactly the way you explained yours except mine happened at Ibadan!
