As an entrepreneur, I am someone that cares very much about my own success. As anyone who makes an investment would. Now, I want to point out the wrong types of investments are the types that MLM requires. I mention this, because most MLMs require a large investment and you have to work to sell products at a ridiculous price. Customers will find that the products are not worth purchasing at a certain point in a "thriving" MLM company. I prefer to keep it simple! I don't like the idea of selling something to someone, as salespeople tend to be more pushy in order to succeed. I'd much rather solve the common problems of MLM type companies by saying they don't work for some very acknowledgeable reasons. Many MLM focus on all the wrong things! And one of the biggest problems is INVESTMENTS! I always ask, "What am I getting for the price?" People will spend tens of thousands of dollars to start in a MLM business. It's pretty foolish when you see the risks! If someone is interested in knowing how to really succeed, everyone needs to see the value of products and services, not just the "money-making" potential. Another major factor to MLM failures is the constant buying and stocking inventory... But many distributors on the "bottom line" already know that. Understand I am not duping on anyone in an MLM business... I'm just saying there is a better way, and it's your responsibility to look for it.
