Many people consider MLM or Network Marketing a scam, ponzi scheme or pyramid scheme. After one learns all the facts they began to realize it is a legal marketing concept, in fact I believe the best business model in the free enterprise system for average and ordinary people who want to work from home. There are a lot of legal ponzi schemes or pyramid schemes. Insurance is commonly known as a legal ponzi scheme. Whatever you insure is based on taking a lot of money for investors, a lot of money to run a company, and enough money to cover all the losses from you and hundreds of other people and the insurance industry and regulators call that business. The Stock market is based on getting people to invest into stocks on a whim that they might make a return and profit on their money. It’s greed driven and you pay for investment brokers, stock brokers, companies bad decisions and inflated stock prices in hopes to get a return. These are legal business practices that are no different in ethical practice than a real MLM Company that is based on a product sale as the driving force behind paying you compensation.

If you are a Professional MLMer, you will know this is factual. If you desire to become a Pro and work from home full time you need to learn these facts. As a professional you need to read the articles and books relating to the industry of MLM. You also need to pay close attention to your chosen industry and watch out for the scammers out there. Both the companies and the people who are scammers. Most of us only think about the companies, but you got to watch the people as well. Here is what to look for.

If you look at a company, it’s easy to recognize the Scammers. They are a company with no product that would be purchased if the compensation plan was not attached to it. Usually, these companies promote some discount plan or online coupon or tech type product that is a one time sale. They promise riches and retirement in a get rich quick scheme, in which you do very little. This month in Network Marketing Business Journal and Opportunity World (Publications I recommend for any MLM Pro) I see several who have advertised who I can spot as Scam Companies. These companies pay well simply because they have no or little cost in delivering any product to you>>>>so the money becomes a pure money game in which they pay out more of it, due to no expenses for inventory, shipping, etc. These are things real companies must build into the money. You get more money quicker and then they are gone and you spent so much time building a team that your efforts are lost as well.

If you are going to put in a lot of work, why not be a Pro and pick a real company to build. Deal with maintaining an inventory. Deal with explaining that sales are a must to people who object to sales and reoccurring orders. Do what it takes to build a real deal, long term and when others are complaining about all the MLM scams out there and how they got ripped off, you can say, “It’s your own fault>>You picked a scam company and you were not a Pro.” If you’re a beginner, become a Pro. Why would you or anyone who expects to earn money equal to the President of the United States expect it to be without any effort or skills? Yes, anyone can do MLM regardless of their education or skills. Yes, anyone can get started for free or for a few hundred dollars. Yes, you can began it part time and go full time as you build an income. But you must make good decisions and you must learn your field to become a Pro. Like Nike says, “Just do it!”

Avoid the People Scammers out there in our industry. They are crooks and they go from one money game to another and they blame the Company when in fact, they know the deal and they continue to pick out get rich quick schemes and move people from one to the next. They do things that even Scam real companies. They use the banking industry rules to scam companies and people. They choose money games intentionally and very few get caught. You must watch out for them. If you are in a real company do not let them move you simply because they are considered a leader. How can you spot People Scammers? They pull games of moving companies on a regular basis and they always move the people from the previous company with no regard or respect to the people who introduced them. In fact they use that as leverage to move people with “I have several of your group ready to sign up, you better get in now.” You need to make decisions based on you and you need to develop professional people in your group, if you ever hope to have a true residual income. Do the right things and ask the right questions. Learn to become a Pro and your home based business will become yours. When it’s your business and you are a Pro, then you have freedom to go with your income.

Sincerely,
