I wish that network marketing could be exposed on the famous reality TV show "Myth Busters." If it were, then it would really get exposed for what it truly is! That said, what is it? Is it a scheme whereby slimy salesman pester and nag you to join a "cult-like" organization? You pour money into a pot only to receive no benefit whatsoever? You work and the only one that gets compensated is the person at the top? Or finally, you buy up a whole lot of useless product only to store it in your garage for years? Most people that have been approached by a network marketer and felt bothered by it or didn't give the opportunity any attention would love to see the story end this way. Well I hate to bust your bubble. What would be uncovered is something totally different! Myth 1 - Network Marketing is about selling. Wrong. In fact, network marketing is the total opposite of selling. Convincing someone to buy something is hard. Marketing is about exposing a product or service to as many people as possible through a network of partners. The title is NOT "network selling." Myth 2 - Network Marketing takes advantage of people. This is farthest from the truth. The model is designed to help people. Not take advantage of people. Corporate America in may respects takes advantage people. In multi-level marketing, if you took advantage of people, you would be broke and lonely. In order for you to be successful, you have to help other people be successful. Myth 3 - Multi-level marketing requires too much work. Network marketing is about a large group of people doing a few simple things consistently over a period of time. Typically this is 1 or 2 activities a day. So it's actually not a lot of work because you have a team of people. Myth 4 - That's another one of those pyramid things. Pyramids schemes are illegal. So if you suspect that there is a pyramid, you need to run. Today, most if not all pyramid schemes have been uncovered. The 1st sign is company history. If the company has been in business for more than 10 years, it is not a scheme. You can't continue to run a business that long illegally. Is there a tangible product? If there is no product, you have to make sure that the service is legit. Also, you shouldn't be required to buy a certain amount of product to maintain your franchise. Most companies, however, require you to buy a certain volume of product to participate in portions of their compensation plan such as rank advancements and bonuses. That is perfectly acceptable. So the various myths about network marketing are simply not true. Have an open mind, and at least explore the possibilities that this beautiful model can unfold for you.
