================== ARTICLE START ==================
What is MLM?
It is a system of marketing where the majority of the income
and cash flow comes from recruiting new members, rather than
selling a product. Where the emphasis is on recruitment
Are Multi-Level Marketing and Network Marketing the same?
Basically, yes. MLM has a bad reputation, so the term is rarely
used nowadays. It is a matter of degree. Network marketing
companies require their distributors to sell a certain minimum
amount of product, as well as recruiting new distributors.
How does MLM work?
One person has a product, he gets ten others to pay him (or
her) to sell the product. These ten people each get ten more to
sell the product. There has to be a product. Part of the
payments from these third level people is passed back to the
one person at the base level. These hundred people recruit
another ten each. Again the income is shared between the
previous levels. 10, 100, 1000, 10,000, 100,000, 1,000,000,
10,000,000, 100,000,000. Well before eight levels of this
upside down pyramid have been reached the product will have
reached saturation point. BUT, the company keeps on recruiting,
keeps on taking payments from would-be distributors to sell this
killer product.
Does anyone make money?
The person with the original idea, and the people he or she
recruited, but that�s it. The money they make comes from
everyone who joined later; they all lose money.
What�s wrong with MLM?
1.There is no knowledge or control of market saturation.
2.MLMs take your money, to set up a distributorship, and you
will lose it.
3.The MLM system destroys people�s self-confidence, by
knowingly taking their money, building up their hopes, while
all the time, the system guarantees failure for most of the
people in it.
4.MLM promoters tell lies to get people to join, and mock those
who doubt.
5.It is fraud.
Why is MLM still around?
It builds up an individual�s hopes of becoming rich for only a
small payment. There is a percentage of people who will always
be persuaded. MLM presentations are very persuasive, that�s how
the company makes its money after all. These people are going to
be very good at telling lies, maybe they even believe them
themselves.
