MLM – A Flawed Concept?

January 27, 2006 by Ty | 1 Comment

I often hear critics say that MLM is a fundamentally flawed business concept.

Of course they are right.

However, they shouldn’t toot there horns quite yet. The reality is, every single business in the world is flawed. No business will work for everyone.

In fact, I’m flawed, you are flawed, and the world is flawed. Yet, I still live what I consider to be a pretty good life. I’ll bet you do too. I have good health, a beautiful wife and great kids. I have a lot of things to be thankful for as I’m sure you do.

There are flaws in Network Marketing, but there are also some distinct advantages.

In Network Marketing, I have more control over my income than I would at a typical job.

In Network Marketing, I have less to worry about (paperwork, product distribution, employees) than I would by having a typical business.

MLM is not for everyone, but it certainly isn’t any more flawed than the profession of the person that is telling you how flawed it is.

    I have been running a computer and Internet business for 15 years. Employing staff, training them and loosing them. Last year received a Videoemail from a MyVideoTalk Agent – I was blown away – even though I am a IT & Internet specialist, this was the first time I recieved a Videoemail.

    I later find that behind this is a Network Marketing opportunity. I thought Pyramid Selling/Scam (usual stuff from newcommers) so did some research and received some links from this agent

    played a brilliant compensation cartoon/video explaining MLM and Leveraging of time etc

    What a fool I have been in business for 15 years – so I became a team player for this Video Email and Video Streaming Opportunity.

    So my oppinion of MLM – a god send – As a result of a “by Chance” contact I now have tools to enhance my current business, A Second income that is working very well.

    But I am still an MLM virgin – so learning everyday !

    So far I have found that you cannot sleep with numbers, prospects rolling round in you head.

    You actually get a team to help you up and down line of yourself – who also produce you income !!!

    It’s fun – 15 years in business since the age of 21 is and has been a lonely trip – staff aren’t bothered with how and what the business is about, how to improve it etc – they just want their salary

    I dont care if i dont make the “$5000/Day income” that this opportunity offers

    But without trying I have received my $350 outgoings many times over and now making a good income – so much so I have reshuffled business with mergers and the employment of a MD to free up time to concentrate on this new innovative opportunity through MLM

    Happy Days

    (Great Website by the way!!!)
