My cousin ignore me after I rejected his idea of selling supplemental products

No matter what I am selling on the internet, it is my business and I never try to convince family members to get involved. I don't believe in that! If they are getting you involved, it means that they are making money off you. Your cousin should not have put that pressure on you for his own gains. He will come around eventually and talk to you again. I hope he does well but reality tells me that he will fail and then he will say he is sorry for trying to push you into it.

Hi! I think everyone will have their right to reject someone's offer, even it is from your relative. I believe what your cousin doing is more like a direct selling. and they will just keep pushing someone to join them. Relative will always be their first move when they start with that kind of business, and of course you have to buy something from them first, like they say, you have to try on yourself so that you can share it with others your own experience about the products. That is what I do not like about direct selling, you have to buy their products and they are not really cheap. And direct selling is not for everyone, although they always show you there are many that successful with them, but did they show you how many that are fail? You actually done nothing wrong and you have the right to reject him.

It is my opinion that you did nothing wrong. Maybe you are not interested in making more money than you already make. What he is, apparently, involved in is what is known as Multi-Level-Marketing or Network Marketing. You might be interested in trying out the supplements, just to see if they could help you. One of the first things that folks that get involved in this type of business are told is to make a list of their friends and relatives and ask them to join them in this adventure. Try not to be too harsh with him for this attempt. He is just doing what someone else told him to do.

No you are not wrong. However since he is family I suggest that when everything seems to 'cool' down, tell him what you have honestly thought. Tell him of your experiences or what you have heard. I rejected something once. My cousin has asked me to babysit his children. It was hard that they got to turn to someone else but as soon as the opportunity arises, i apologised to his wife and explained my situation. After that we became quite close. Since its family, its better that you patch up as soon as possible. It will be awkward if you had to meet for weddings and such if you did not. If you do it first, you are being classier.

Hi, Kingparker, you definitely didn't do it wrong. I bet that this is a MLM structure so your cousin had hopes to earn more money if you join under him. I had a similar experience years ago with a company selling Nutritional Supplements. They didn't require investment in advance and maybe the products were good. But everything was too expensive for the conditions in my country so after a while I just abandonned this job. Don't worry, maybe your cousin will stop being so angry

You didn't do it wrong. You were actually right. He doesn't have the right to force you into something you don't feel comfortable with. And I agree with you, that kind of business is a lousy one. If you can't do anything about it for now, I'm pretty sure he'll turn around someday realizing he was wrong.
