MLM - multi level marketing

it seems from all comments, i can say mlm really stinks! getting downline is like searching a pot of gold along the street, which is kind hard, but yes not impossible. all i can say, mlm really screw you up!

MLM stinks only for those who cannot make a recruit. There are many reasons why people are joining MLM. From my experience working with this company, not every body only after how much commission they can make. A lot of them join for the benefits of the product itself (In our case its Health Products). Many of our members joined because for good health and life style our product is offering. For it would saves them a lot if they join the company and enjoy discounts and if they want, as well as the opportunity. You see... when you sign up to join MLM program you already entitled for a discounts in your purchase. For a new member sure it is not an income but it can add up to your money savings. MLM is good if not the best source of extra income and savings but definetly not for LAZY people.

Also i would like to add, MLM is a business for leaders. If you don't posses a character of LEADER you better stay out of these industry. Believe me you can't survive a month like many others did.

so what your point of view? mlm really works?

true ! and you'll end up just wasting your time and money! even though some of my relatives manage to get a lot of profit from mlm because they are among the first one, but then most of people joining more work less paid. mlm really not fair!

MLM is legit and its really works. Just come to think of this, When you but something directly from a store you only get things that you bought. In MLM the idea is to eliminate this tradition. Instead of paying voidable marketing expenses, manufacturers go directly with its consumer and let them introduce and promote the product for their co-consumer. In return they get commissions and discounts in every purchase and for the purchase of their down lines. This it where they generate income from Networking. Now, how could that be unfair when all of its members benefits by commissions of by discounts on the products they bought? I am new in online money making business and a lot of people who started ahead of me already earned generous amount of money like for myLot for example... By now, i am earning $0.08 since i register up to this writings compared to its pioneers i bet they already had their pay out several months ago. Just because i learn this business by now, will make myLot unfair? Like i said, In MLM all members has its own benefits and it vary depending on how you are taking this business seriously. No one will pay you just by doing nothing and its a well known fact that each of us must realize.

Can you name that company with good but overpriced products? I am interested to know.

i'm in the same shoes as you are. convincing people to buy things, more over it's 90usd juice, and each month, i dont think so. i'll have a look at your link

yeah...they just come to us, calling, ym you, sms you none stop...disturbing our life...but that is how it goes

i'm totally agree with you, even i dont have any referrals. people nowdays just want less work paid more..which is not going to happen. the montly fees is totally cant be tolerated

Yes, it is true. Such problem exist in MLM. But there's a solution. Instead of focusing on promoting the business opportunity of MLM, focus on marketing the products' benefits first. Let's say for example, if you are promoting a product that is known to treat cancer problems (and there are many MLM companies who have that kind of product), find customers for that product first! Introduce the product to them, create results and testimonies! If your product is really effective, you will gain loyal customers for your business, and eventually the testimonies will spread. Let the product sell itself. People will buy your product not because they are interested in the business, but because they need the products! Business opportunity is just secondary to them. In that way, you will be building your MLM business the natural way, solid way, and you're building an income for life!
