What's Wrong With MLM?

By Bruce Seah

 

What is wrong with MLM? There are so much negativity and it is very obvious the industry has been hurt by many companies that practice front-loading schemes, money games by getting members to buy 10 to 30 profit centers, disguise themselves as a network marketing company when they are offering pyramid schemes, or those with leader's compensation plan where less than 3% make money and over 97% ask "Where's the money?".

So the truth is there is nothing wrong with MLM, it is the abuse, misconception, and misrepresentation of it.

If you are a newbie, seasoned network marketer, or MLMer, you will definitely agree with what I am sharing with you here. The fundamentals and basics of what makes a good MLM home business. "Integrity is the essence of everything" - Buckminster Fuller. You got to ask yourself is there integrity in the management, the products or services, the compensation plan and the support system, if your answer is a resounding YES! For all of them, you have a good MLM in your hands.

Network marketing is the same as MLM, so I will freely use these terms and for the record MLM is the old name and network marketing is the new name! MLM is a wonderful home business based on universal laws and has stood the test of time that it works; you just got to do your due diligence and join the right company that has integrity in these areas which are worth repeating here:

-Management - people with integrity who practice what they preach and deliver what they promise.

-Products and Services - give great value and quality and truly benefit the people and have stood the test of time.

-Compensation Plan - a simple, duplicate, and profitable compensation plan where 97% of the members who are part-timers and smart consumers can easily earn a decent income with decent commitment of time, money, and effort.

-Support System - a simple and duplicate support system online and offline where members can use it to grow their home business.

MLM like any other home business takes commitment of time, money, and effort. For those who work the home business, the Home Business will work for them, it is as simple as that. I speak from 13 years of MLM experience and I am so passionate about it that I've written 8 books on it!

What's wrong with sharing a great product that will make a positive difference to millions of lives worldwide? What's wrong with making decent money from caring and sharing? What's wrong with working smart and leveraging on an organization with thousands of people? What's wrong with people helping people to build a simple, duplicate and profitable home-based business?

Here's a simple example:

A great product that will benefit your family greatly and you simply consume it and share it with your loved ones, relatives, and friends. Your monthly operation cost is only US$30 a month, that is not going to stressed you out, isn't it? What home business out there can let you operate for only US$30 a month? You go on an auto-ship plan and just consume your US$30 a month of this health supplement and start sharing this simple where in two to three years you build a group with 1,000 members, each consuming US$30 a month and that way you will create a US$30,000 sales volume.

The company will happily reward you with a 5% commission for your US$30,000 group sales volume and you will receive US$1,500 a month for your efforts in building the home business.

What's wrong with that?

Did you hurt anybody along the way?

In fact you help thousands of people to improve their health and help them earn a few hundred dollars a month to supplement their income!

I called MLM a simple, duplicate, profitable home-bases business without the headaches and heartaches of a conventional business.

I started MLM in Singapore since 1993 and three of my books are available at major book stores such as Times, MPH and Kinokuniya. I will make them available in eBook format for those who want to order online. They are Break Free! - There is a MLM Lead King way to earn a living, Why Network Marketing? And How To Be Successful In Network Marketing.
