A couple months ago, I posted a video comment on YouTube responding to a gentleman that had some videos posted on how MLM sucks and it was only a scheme that make the distributors on top rich. We engaged each other back and forth for a while and his fans all had stories how they joined network marketing companies and how they never made a dime. One young lady testified how she joined a company for about six months and never made a dime. She never mentioned anything about working the business. I didn't want to get in a shouting match with the gentleman, but he was really angry by my post because he thought I called him assinine. I did use that word in my reply video but it was directed at his comments about network marketing in general. After a few posts back and forth I decide to take down the video and we engaged in some constructive conversation. I understood his point. He had a lot of friends in the industry that were high up in the upline food chain and some didn't like what they saw and got out. He had a lot of friends lose money. The point I was making was that all industries have these types. People who prey on others that are ignorant to facts and lack knowledge. The individual impressed me because he decided to do something about that in his industry and became an expert and trusted advisor in his industry. He called out the schemers and educated his peers on the scams and shysters in his industry. I admired what he did and decided I would do the same for my industry.
(Let me make this clear right now, I make no apologies for network marketing. Network Marketing is a legitimate business and it works. It works for the people who learn the smart way to build it and realize you won't get rich overnight.) Now, in network marketing there are those who prey on the weakminded and uninformed. That happens very easily when prospects are unfamiliar with what they are looking at. The good thing about that is that there is a surefire way to overcome this. Its called research and due diligence. Its like deciding to going out and buy a car. Before you head out to the dealerships, you would want to do your research first. You would want to know the fair market value for the vehicle you are looking to buy and the safety and effeciency of that vehicle. You would want to get a car fax before you buy the vehicle and check on the gas mileage. So why would it be any different when it comes to the financial vehicle for your livelyhood?
If you decide you want to start a home-based MLM opportunity, start with doing your research and due diligence. There a quite a few opportunities out there that are very good but at the same time there are a lot of scams out there to, so be careful and study the company, the owners and make sure they have a relevant product that sells without the compensation plan. I have created a step by step generic report on how to do your due dilegence when chosing a MLM company. Right now I am making the beta copy available for free download for a limited time.
