Does MLM Marketing Actually Work?

For some people, this is the way to go. I have met a few
people over the years that swear by it. I know a few people
who make over $100k a year working their multi level
marketing program. The unfortunate part about it is that
they were the only one making money. No one on their team
was duplicating the efforts they were doing. Weather they
were selling vitamins, travel, a gas saver product,
lotions, potions, pills, candles or juice beverage
products, I have tried it all and it was a difficult task
for me. Once I ran out of my friends and family to bug
about my new business, once I had two or three home
parties, I ran out of leads, so I started buying leads in
hopes to try to convert some people into my business. That
is so much harder than it sounds. Sure I made sales, but by
the time I was getting to the next profit level, the people
who I brought in 2-3 months ago were dropping like flies.
This is why I could never make it to the next big payout
level of the commission plan. For some reason, I would
always fall short of the next bonus payout or car bonus.
Usually, I would fall short of personal volume or group
volume or I would have enough on my left side, but not
enough on my right side, so I would miss out on the big
payouts, month after month.

This got to be the same old stuff you hear about why MLM
doesn't work for most people and the only people making
money were the people at the top of the pyramid. People
with huge dowlines and people that have been in the
business a long time and lists of hundreds of thousands of
people to market to. For any newbie joining, good luck. I
once watched a stay at home mom put $13,000 into a business
to quit within a year. Most of us are smarter than that and
would have quit after a few months and maybe only lost
$1000 down the drain, but this person was persistent and
did not want to fail. So she kept plugging away until they
had no money left and when gas prices went to $3.50, the
father of the family couldn't afford to put gas in the car.
So much for helping out.

The only thing we have found on the internet to work for
most people is a direct sales company that pays you 100% of
the sale. Companies that have a price point of less than
$1000 to start. This is the only way you have a chance to
succeed. Beware of the $1500 to $5000 programs, the start
up company and program jumpers. The truth about start ups
is that they have no track record. You have no idea if they
will be in business two years later. Watch out for people
who jump ship every time a new program comes out on the
internet. Most importantly, be careful of the program that
costs more than $1000.00. They are hard to sell, no matter
how good it sounds.

I hope this helps your research in determining a company
that you can be proud to represent.
