NETWORK MARKETING IS NOT.....

Network Marketing is not just about making money.. Although you need money to survive network marketing is about creating freedom in your life to live the life you have envisioned for yourself. It is a vehicle to get you to where you want to be.
Network Marketing is not illegal “pyramid scheme”.
Is not a chain of illegal lottery where people make money by recruiting others to join in the game.
Network Marketing is paid only on the distribution of valuable products or services.
Network Marketing is not a “get-rich-quick” business. Although first money has happened for a few individuals, they are rare exceptions, not the rule. But if you drop the quick and call it a “get-rich” business, that’s another matter.
Network Marketing is not just for professional sales people. Of the countless success stories in the industry, most have come from individuals with non-sales backgrounds and little or no experience.
Network Marketing is not a full-time commitment. Nearly ninety percent of the men and women in this industry work their business part-time.
Network Marketing is not for men only. Actually, the majority of active, successful people in the industry are women.
Network Marketing Is NOT for Losers!

Criticism of MLM

I believe that MLM is the way of freedom business. This is the way of success and happiness live with honoure and money. But there are some criticisms of MLM business. This post are not de motive yourself if you found yourself as a MLM leader.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) issued a decision, In re Amway Corp., in 1979 in which it indicated that multi-level marketing was not illegal per se in the United States. However, Amway was found guilty of price fixing (by requiring “independent” dtributors to sell at the low price) and making exaggerated income claims.
The FTC advises that multi-level marketing organizations with greater incentives for recruitment than product sales are to be viewed skeptically. The FTC also warns that the practice of getting commissions from recruiting new members is outlawed in most states as “pyramiding”. In April 2006, it proposed a Business Opportunity Rule intended to require all sellers of business opportunities—including MLMs—to provide enough information to enable prospective buyers to make an informed decision about their probability of earning money. In March 2008, the FTC removed Network Marketing (MLM) companies from the proposed Business Opportunity Rule:
The revised proposal, however, would not reach multi-level marketing companies or certain companies that may have been swept inadvertently into scope of the April 2006 proposal.
Walter J. Carl stated in a 2004 Western Journal of Communication article that “MLM organizations have been described by some as cults (Butterfield, 1985), pyramid schemes (Fitzpatrick & Reynolds, 1997), or organizations rife with misleading, deceptive, and unethical behavior (Carter, 1999), such as the questionable use of evangelical discourse to promote the business (Hopfl & Maddrell, 1996), and the exploitation of personal relationships for financial gain (Fitzpatrick & Reynolds, 1997)”.
