3 things you should know before joining a MLM

3 things you should know before joining a MLM.

 

Why the Multi-Level (a.k.a Network) Marketing industry is becoming so popular. 

Multi-level marketing (MLM) or word of mouth marketing has been around since the early 60’s where someone would come to your home to sell you soaps, perfumes or health care products. These early companies were pioneers of this bold new industry, but like all good concepts, some people would use this model to scam and scheme people out of their hard earned money. Most noted the pyramid scheme.

 

What is a pyramid scheme? It’s where you would pay into a group or concept without getting any products or services in return, just the promises that by making this investment you would grow your investment and become rich. The Federal Trade Commission is the governing institution to protect the public from these practices. One way to protect yourself for this practice is ask 3 questions.

• What is the product or service offered?
• Can a person joining this program exceed the sponsor in position and/or income with ample effort?
• Where is most of the money made coming from membership or product?

 Having a poor understanding of how the industry truly works is one of the biggest issues. Many people come into a MLM organization with a lottery or sales mentality and they attempt to sell their great products and/or services to all of their friends and family. The problem with this approach is that your friends and family may not want what you have to show them. They may even run away or distance themselves from you for a period. They don’t understand the benefits of what you are offering or just don’t have a need for the product or service. The rejection that comes from this way of doing the business causes a person to throw in the towel prematurely and not get what they were expecting from the venture.
