Speaking Out.......
By: Michael Lemm
I'm sorry...but I just can't hold this in anymore. At risk of upsetting a
few of you, which I honestly don't want to do, I have to stand up and speak
out.
SOME of you need to hear some facts of life...er network marketing.
Looking at much of what is posted on the 'Net (and that includes in
MLMForums.com sometimes)... I just have to shake my head.
Enthusiasm is fantastic...but not if it is wasted on smoke & mirrors.... or
flavor of the month.... or the latest greatest new launch...or all hype no
substance.... or dicey legal compliance.....or.....you get the idea.
PLEASE put some effort into your due diligence BEFORE you jump in with both
feet.
Check out:
* Legal viability (is product/service sold to the general public.....or is
the majority of income soley derived from recruiting and personal use)
* The Company (are they credible, financially stable, well managed,
affordable, ethical & honest, experienced?)
* The product (is there one and will people really want it...at the price
it's sold for?)
* The costs (are they reasonable....or are you paying high sign-up fees,
annual renewal fees, recurring marketing &/or tool &/or training fees.....a
black hole? Can you "get others" to pay the same thing?)
* The pay plan (is it fair.....or do you have to build to 20 gazillion
levels to get a decent over-ride pay out? Does your personal customer
residual commission compare favorably to "the competition"?)
* The "system" (do they have one? is it simple to follow and duplicate?)
* The training & support (is it frequently offered, readily available, and
easy to understand?)
* Your sponsor/upline (are they honest, ethical, personable, available,
engaged?)
* Are relationships and helping others even a part of the equation??
* Can YOU do it??
That's just a few simple off the top of my head issues. Not an all
encompassing "list".
How much risk are YOU willing to accept?
Once you realize you can ... and should ... do better....
Make the right choice....
Take your time. It's YOUR business and YOUR life.
Don't succumb to emotion..... and definitely NOT pressure.
Whatever you ultimately decide is YOUR choice.
PLEASE make it an informed decision as much as possible.
Now.....anybody else tired of seeing all the junk.....and the "junkees"?
