Best MLM Companies? Some Inconvenient Facts about MLM today!
Internet based business opportunities are the growth area in the world of business today. Millions are turning to the internet to create a home based business lifestyle which has the promises of time freedom, residual income and easy, turnkey wealth solutions. It is easy to believe all of the hype and noise about online business being the best option to creating a prosperous future.
But the reality is quite different to the flashing lights and extravagant claims made by many in the online world.
The rapid demise of the multi level marketing model has been partly due to the power of the internet itself. The ease of communication and the technology available to any budding home business entrepreneur means that anyone can set up a new business opportunity with an mlm type compensation plan from their own office. Find a product, setup a pre-launch and publicise, publicise, publicise.
New pre-launch companies are a daily event and because so many in the mlm business are struggling to make any money with this format thousands jump to these ground floor opportunities. This process repeats over and over again and it means if you have taken the time and substantial expense to build a large down-line, suddenly one of your recruits will jump ship taking hundreds or thousands of your down-line with them.
The result - instant slashing of your monthly earnings. There are some horror stories out there and even the best mlm companies are not immune to this process.
A few years ago it was possible to build a great income from this model and many people have but it is a rarity now for you to make money from mlm.
How many supplements, potions, energy drinks, life-changing substances does the world really need? The best mlm companies have great products but it is the compensation plan which makes it so difficult for you to succeed. These complicated plans are almost unfathomable and this is not a coincidence. When these plans are analysed correctly taking into account even a conservative attrition rate the sheer numbers necessary to generate the monthly income you have been told is easily achievable are quite frightening usually running into thousands of recruits.
So, if you are thinking MLM will be the way for you to create the life of your dreams I urge you to think again.
The only model I have found to give the sort of results most people are looking for is a concept called GPT or Get Paid Today. This involves a top tier product range and substantial upfront commissions paid on every sale. No massive down-line building, very little attrition and no spare rooms full of your automatic monthly product order. This business model has taken advantage of the power of the internet rather than being destroyed by it.
Top tier direct sales is delivering what the older mlm companies are trying to convince you is possible with their system.
All I can say is do the research!

Re: Franchises in Texas...
- [quote="GT Bulmer":2vkmvy75]ps - Is global warming a concern? Or are the melting icecaps and changing weather patterns simply one of Earth's cycles that happens periodically with or without Mankind's loving touch? We've been on the planet too short of a time to truly understand Earth's cycles.[/quote:2vkmvy75]
Hi GT,
I think global warming is definitely a concern for everyone. While some of us may not directly be "hurt" by the environmental changes in our lifetime, I believe the next generation will.
According to Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth"... I can't recall for sure, but I think there's a prediction that Manhattan will be submerged in water in the next 50 years (due to polar melting and rising water levels).
And I just heard on the news today that out of 29 weeks of "summer" this year, Toronto had 8 weekends where both Saturday and Sunday had rainfall which is abnormal (and also weekend spoilers!).
Re: Some motivation when the going gets rough
- Hi There,
How about this, here are the ten top questions to ask yourself every day:
1. "Who do I need to say "I love you" to today?"
2. "What will I do today to insure I remain at the highest level of
health possible, now and in the future?"
3. "What am I most grateful for right now?"
4. "What 3 actions must I take today to meet my daily, weekly,
monthly, annual, ten year and life long goals?
5. "Who needs to hear from me today?"
6. "What new things will I learn today?"
7. "Whose life can I influence for good today?"
8. "What am I doing today to generate an above average income?"
9. "What am I doing today to create an eternal legacy?"
10. "What is happening today that will be so important that I
must record it in my journal?"
I have seen this somewhere and I tweaked it a little.
In order we are able to say: "Never give up!" , one has need to start something.
Be blessed
