About MLM! Is it true that doing MLM business will make you rich?

You can get rich selling lemonade on the side of the road, but that doesn't mean its anywhere near an intelligent way to do it.  Same for MLM.\n\nMLM at its best is a sales position.  MLM at its worst is earning money through a ponzi scheme (signing up others).  MLM companies predominantly put the focus not on selling enough product to make a living on your own, but doing minimum amounts of sales yourself and making money by signing others up.  \n\nYou can make money, but the likelihood of sustaining it just doesn't add up.  You always need to have more and more people coming into your organization or those at the bottom begin to quit (why would they stay in if they are not making money).  And if the bottom starts to quit, then it quickly works its way back up and before you know it all your work getting a downline is gone.  So, the only way is to continue to grow.  However, doing simple math shows that is not possible, since even a 2x2 matrix exceeds a billion people by its 35th level.  So, is this what you want to work hard to achieve...a giant structure than cannot grow?  Not likely.  Not if your intelligent.\n\nThere are countless ways to get rich.  Building a downline is among the least intelligent ways.  \n\nDon't be fooled by those MLMers who will jump to the conclusion that i am just some negative person (or call me any of a bunch of names), the reality is those people are merely refusing to address the simple flaws I just pointed out and taking the easy path of trying to tear me down instead.

Not working and mooching off of others, spending their money foolishly and not saving, Looking for the "easy way" , and thinking that if you get into these pyramid schemes you are going to become RICH I believe half the time you have to know someone LOL!!!\n\nJust work hard and save, you don't have to get into some fancy crap to become wealthy.

Most offers you get in spam email are scams.\n\nThe best way for a very young person to get rich is to start the next fad.  In the 70's, a teenager had the idea of selling pet rocks.  In the 80's, a pre teen had the idea of selling cardboard sun shades for car windshields.  Both these young men were millionaires by the time they graduated high school.

Yes! I have had great success by following the principles taught by Tony Robbins. I bought one of his books (Awaken the Giant Within), several years ago.

"gnphyd" ~\n\nBoth types of businesses offer their own unique advantages, but it sounds to me like you’d benefit most from the less traditional path of network marketing. Here’s why I think so:\n\n- A network marketing business costs far less to start than a traditional one\n- A network marketing business may enable you, after a few years of diligent work (typically 1 to 3) to retire from your current vocation and work a less demanding schedule, freeing you up for family-time and other important time pursuits\n- A network marketing business can provide residual income (instead of hours-for-dollars income). This type of income is rarely obtainable with a traditional business, without a huge up-front investment.\n- A network marketing business may even enable you to work almost entirely from home\n\nThe real key is wisely choosing a worthwhile opportunity (and there are a few). Only sufficient information will enable you to do this.\n\nThe greatest need of anyone interested in building a truly stable, residual income in network marketing is to equip himself with pure, practical information…of the kind that will provide measurable, long-term benefits ~ like the ability to avoid being scammed by any of the fake or poorly-constructed “opportunities,” that could cost a fortune in time and/or money.\n\nThough they definitely serve a purpose, it’s important to know that on-line forums like this one are ultimately not going to provide you this degree of extremely useful info. You have to dig a bit deeper for the real worthwhile info!\n\nCarlos Whitfield\nContributing Editor, MLM the Whole Truth

I'm not sure if you are really asking a question or just preaching against MLMs.  My opinion would be every entrepreneur should get involved in a "good" MLM (there's alot of bad ones out there) and take advantage of the training.  A real entrepreneur will feel "limited" in a MLM because you have to do it "their way" and innovation is discouraged but to learn the systems and the methods of running a business and to get paid a little while learning in my book that's well worth it!

Yeah its a scam there are so many get rich from home scams out there its not even funny. Dont buy into that bs. I mean really think about it if people get rich from working at home then everybody would be rich.

The masseuses that make the most money are those who build their own clientele they see in home or at the clients house. There is no split between you and a salon or spa for the money you make. You also need to be product savvy. Many people want to 'accessorize' their massage experience by purchasing the oil.lotion you use, candles, relaxation Cd's, body wraps, etc, etc... Merchandising will make you lots of money. Being great at what you do will always be a big help!

The Top? I guess it depends on who is answering, everybody thinks their MLM is the best.\n\nI am apart of Arbonne ( http://www.gleamingskin.myarbonne.com ) I chose Arbonne for many reasons. Especially that they are a member of the Direct Selling Association ( http://www.dsa.org ) That's just one of the many reasons. \n\nIf you are looking to join an MLM, ask lots of questions before signing the dotted line. They should not require "large" investment, that is usually the sign for a pyramid (which gives MLM a bad name). This is another site that I run http://www.ratraceclub.com  Many of the people that are into the "Rich Dad" series are apart of MLM. Listen to the recording that is on the main page, it explains why MLM / Network marketing is so great. \n\nThere are a ton of resources out there on the net. Just be aware of the ones that claim to give you "free" e-books and such on getting started in MLM, because they will HOUND you on the phone / email\n\nbest of luck,\nAngela

Yes. It works.  I signed up about 3 years ago and made money.  It all depends on how you would work your business.  I took some on my products to flee markets and passed out brochures to different people who bought different items from me.  It's ligit.  Good Luck!

I think there are a lot of legitimate home business offers.  I don't think that any of them will make you any money though.   The people making the offers will make money.

Being in mlm is like being under an oppresive communist regime.  You are brainwashed into believe the system you are in is the "best", but really only the Stallins of the organization (those that are making money of off selling tapes and charging ridiculous fees for pump up sessions) are getting rich.\n\nGod speed.

No. That's a business and every business has to have its profits. but, why do you have to go that far? Me, personally dont believe in that, that's trash for me. Hey why dont you buy something nice to that person instead of feeding those liers... :)

I must say I am offended at most of the answeres I have read to your questions.. I have been helping People for the last 20 year now.. and If you think I am getting rich on alternative medicine.. then I must be doing something wrong my supplies cost me more then I bring in.. I have doctors sending me clients and I can't charge any insurance because I get called a guru because I use energy healing as well.. I was given this gift for healing and how to use alternative medicine and if anyone is paying more then what doctors are getting then you are getting ripped off.. Please I will take some of these people so I can drive a BMW and a Mercedes on the weekend. I can understand why people get riped off by so many people when they have no place to turn to I myself have seen so many ads on alternative Medicine sometimes I want to yell fraud.. Believe me there a more people around the world like me you just have to find the right person by asking other people or even and if you find one make sure you ask all kinds of question make a list and take it with you or If you see something advertised check it out before you jump on the wagon, and one of the great resources for info is right here use often.. What I have found that most of the answers you get from here is very good.. but like I said, stop,,check ,,and question...

Yes, definitely.  People are seeking personal trainers more and more.  Besides if you were really good you could end up working for celebrities and really bring in some major cash. : )
