MLM Pre-Launch -- Great Marketing or Just Another MLM Scam

MLM Pre-Launch -- Great Marketing or Just Another MLM Scam

If you have been around the MLM industry very long, you have seen all of the hype that is generated when a new “pre-launch” MLM opportunity is announced.  The “pre-launch” announcement supposedly gives people the chance to get in to the new opportunity before everybody else.

 

The question is – who IS everybody else?

 

Apparently, everybody is everybody. There is no distinction between who gets in and who doesn’t, so everybody has the chance to spend there money to “beat the crowd”. The net effect is that the “herd” mentality continues and 97% of the failing marketers move on to the next opportunity.

 

When the pre-launch opportunity is marketed to the world, the only thing missing on the pre-launch is the thousands of ads offering the “next best thing”.  Unfortunately most of the ads published are the same for the new opportunity as they were for the last one, except for a name change.

 

So is this great marketing or something much less?

 

I tend to believe the pre-launch is the newest marketing idea to try to attract the 98% of marketers that keep bouncing from opportunity to opportunity. They never make any money so they don’t stay with one company very long. 

 

Why do they fail to earn a decent income from the new opportunity? 

 

Mainly, these people fail to earn their worth due to a basic MLM flaw.  The business plan is geared to recruiting and not to longevity. The only way for these opportunities to succeed is to keep bringing new people into the fold by promising riches and wealth. Why do people fall for this scheme? Part of the reason is greed and part is lack of knowledge.  If you have never been shown a better method of building wealth, why would you question what the business opportunity is pitching?

 

So, what do you do if you want to improve your life style and increase your income? How does someone get out of this MLM trap?

 

Well, there is a way.

 

If you are marketing an MLM opportunity and it’s not working, you need to do several things.

 

First, forget EVERYTHING the MLM sales literature says to do. 

 

It does not work. Second, find a mentor that can teach you the current methods of marketing that are used by the top internet earners today.  This mentor will teach you how to position yourself as a leader to the world and to reap all of the benefits that come with the position.

 

So, what are you waiting for?
