Today feeling motivated to write something positive about a business I love, namely MLM , I was amazed at how much negative coverage this form of marketing has. For me MLM is fun, but I’ve never claimed it to be the answer for every body’s troubles. The point is I have done a lot in my life for money and all of them seemed extremely stressful to me.
The thought of going to work every day to sell myself for a fistful of dollars is just not my idea of fun. Now I know plenty people, especially my family has scolded me for having this apparently horrible attitude. But they don’t pay for me, I pay my own way and I’ll admit at times it was down right hard to survive especially as I was incapable of keeping a steady and reliable job. It was only after I discovered the Law Of Attraction and got into finding out who I am did I realise MLM is for me.
Even if I was head of a bank earning a salary of well over a million bucks a year I could not face going into my executive office daily. I love my life too much and yes I also love money.
I am in no way implying that bank executives don’t love their jobs, and in the same breath as I say that I’m also grateful for them. I adore my bank manager. She is a lovely person, although she does look a bit overworked to me.
MLM is not every one’s cup of tea just like being a bank executive is not for every one. There may be nasty pyramid systems out there waiting to prey on innocent out of work individuals who are lusting after the big bucks. Through their lust it could be so that they are attracting companies with the intent of robbing their last bit of money from them with the promise of health and wealth.
There will always be the people saying well if MLM is so fantastic then why isn’t everyone doing it? Every one isn’t doing it because not every one wants to do it. Seems pretty basic to me. Just like I don’t want to do what other people are doing. Actually I don’t like to do any thing. I’m sure I’m considered lazy by many people. What kind of a lazy slob am I that I need some body to clean up after me? On the other hand though, I’m in a contented state when I’m digging, shovelling and schlepping in my garden. I also have no objection to sitting in my garden and just staring.
MLM is not about selling and buying loads of stock to pile up in your garage. If you’re considering MLM get involved with a company that has a remuneration system based on duplication rather than on the amount of product you purchase for wholesale which you then resell.
You don’t have to go to endless company meetings to be successful in MLM, you just have to understand the system. In fact I have never been to a meeting. Recruiting unemployed people and creating hype just seems to be dishonest to me.
For a small monthly investment you get to build yourself a serious income generator. A life insurance policy takes much longer to pay out those kinds of dividends. The stock exchange is riskier than investing a in product that benefits your health. Be proud of your chosen product and generously share with your friends. They’ll soon notice and ask what they’re being served and you can serenely introduce it by name and say not only does it taste great but makes money too. That way you land up with a whole lot of happy earning consumers. I can’t think of anything fairer.
My sponsor once said to me rather you make a new friend once a month than signing up hundreds of people that don’t understand and get disillusioned with the business and then go around bad mouthing the industry.
MLM is a life style, not a gimmick or a quick fix out of dire straits. Poverty is a mind set based on the idea of lack, limited supply and competition. Don’t even think about getting involved with MLM if you have any ideas based on poverty.
