Most MLM is Garbage

A product should sell itself, and a person should promote a product, not a position in the company. All too often, multi-level marketing schemes ruin the financial well-being of the beginner.

Some companies are honest, and some marketers are honest, but let’s face it, most of these programs are marketing nothing more than a position within their marketing scheme, and if you’re lucky a bottle of juice they claim to be a panacea—the fruity beverage that will clear up all of your health problems. Let’s not forget about the vitamins.

The problem isn’t so much the product that’s being sold. Rather, it is the manipulative ways in which these “powerlines” and “forced matrices” are being sold with promises of instant and great wealth with no work on your part. They convenient forget to mention that you on your own when it comes to mastering the arts of advertising and marketing—and that a beginner can easily throw away thousands of dollars with nothing to show for it.

Yeah… How many internet marketing newbies fall for that garbage?

The fact of the matter is, if the products these companies were selling was any good, the higher commissions would be paid out for the product sales, not for membership recruitment. And why should anyone pay a company for the right to sell their product?

There are some multi-level marketing companies that are worthwhile, selling such things as insurance, insurance alternatives, websites, online services, legal services and other worthwhile services and products. But none of these companies will make you rich over night, like most of them promise. You, and only you, determine your success.

Remember, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Why not try selling something that there’s an actual need or demand for, instead of preying on the hopes (and bank accounts) of others?
