Is there any viability to MLM marketing?
December 11, 2008 - I believe in the concept of MLM marketing but in my search of MLM companies I find that the products are either a bunch of garbage or they are overpriced from the point of origin. An MLM company will charge a distributor a so-called wholesale price for a product when in fact the price is higher than it should ever be at the retail level.
Is there a genuine MLM company that has a product that isn't overpriced at it's point of origin,--a product that can be demonstrated to others?
You're smart. There are a few companies that use MLM as a business model that are legit. But as you found out, most of them are useless. They usually sell products that are readily available anywhere for high prices. Recently someone tried to get me to sell vitamins that were formulated according to astrological signs. Hilarious man! If you're really interested in MLM, why not start a legit one? For fun, google MLM and scam. It's almost impossible to maintain. Unless you're realistic about the product and the income potential. P.S. Tupperware and Avon are legit MLMs.
Think about it...if the product was so genuine and valuable, it would be sold on the open market. In the day and age of the internet, what business leader would be dumb enough to market a product that could sell in mass quantities using traditional methods yet chose an MLM model that promotes using people who are not required to have sales or marketing experience? MLM is set up to move product that the masses would not buy and thus the MLM products are sold with the MLM dream as a decoy. You see, the bulk of all MLM products are sold to the reps themselves because they foolishly pour out countless dollars because they feel they will eventually become rich doing MLM. Then, they are told the only way to fail is to stop believing. What a ridiculous mentality to keep the naive going. No matter how much you believe you are going to run through a brick wall, you are not going to be able to do it. Lack of belief is not the reason. Same with MLM. Its flawed system is to blame, not belief. Tupperware is a perfect example of what I am saying. Its a great product and was sold eventually at fair prices, so it was taken to the mass market (out of MLM) because a lot more money could be made for the parent company that way. Common sense. Case closed. Can't wait to hear another MLMer with no marketing education come up with some more one liners to avoid addressing the question. You wait, it will happen!
- You believe in the concept? So you believe you can continually sign up [people and have them sign up people forever? Good luck with all that. Do some research. There are plenty of Q&A even in here that explain what is wrong with MLM.
