MLM Business Opportunities, Do they Work In A Web 2.0 World?

Well, I can tell you that I've been through it all. I've seen people go thousands in debt, loose their spouse,
loose their house, not be able to afford groceries because of their auto-ship and of course sponser 100's of people and
within a couple months only to have all of them leave within a few months for "the next big thing."

Is it possible that a MLM business opportunity is just not a viable way to make money today? After all the average life of a
distributor is barely over 90 Days.

From my observations of being in MLM for many years and having great success here are the 3 problems I see:

1. Traditional MLM Business Opportunities don't work in this day & age
2. The tiny checks you get from residuals and signing up distributors is not enough to keep someone going
3. The attrition rate is to high with all the distractions of Web 2.0 today

If you've been in an MLM company for any amount of time you can immediately identify with all of these issues, right?
So what do you do? How do you face these problems? What's the answer?

The first problem has to relate to people in our community being sick of being "pitched" at
Hotel Meetings, lunch appointments, coffee appointments, house plans and tasting parties.

Think about it, how many people showed up to your last gathering and how many of them got started, let alone actually did anything?

The second problem revolves around the "tiny checks" you get. $50 is just that...$50! You would have to recruit at least 10 people
to make $500, then you usually have a residual of a couple dollars on the back-end. That amount of money won't even cover the expenses you have to fork out for a monthly auto-ship and your marketing budget to be able to keep bringing recruit's in.

The third problem is like filling a bucket up with water, and taking it back home with a hole on the side it. By the time you get home you'll be lucky to have any left. Their is high attrition rate with MLM business opportunities because people are always looking for the "next big thing". And with the internet people can get their curiosity satisfied. This usually happens because they haven't made any money within their first 90 Days or been educated on how to market properly.

Here is exactly what will solve these problems:

1. Get a solid internet marketing education, you can't afford to waste your time prospecting family and friends anymore. With the internet you can access the world within a couple minutes. You just have to learn how, so invest in becoming a great internet marketer.
2. Don't get involved with Traditional MLM companies, look for "Top-Tier Network Marketing" Companies. That have products that allow you to make at least $4000 your first month with only a couple customers. This will allow you to invest in more marketing and build your company fast because you now have funds to move forward.
3. If you have gotten a good internet marketing education and have joined a top tier network marketing company you will be able to provide value, in the form of marketing education to your downline and be able to get them into profit within their first 90 Days. Which will solve that 90 Day attrition problem.

The world is changing a lot and if you are struggling with your MLM business opportunity, these are the exact principles you can apply right away and get results fast. Don't make it any more complicated than it really is , remember entrepreneurs take action before they have it all figured out.
