First Things First
Certainly, MLM is appealing to anyone who's
looking for a low-cost business opportunity. But, no
matter what anyone tells you, MLM is no slam dunk. To
succeed in MLM, you need to keep these basic priorities
in mind:
* Without a decent product, the whole plan
collapses. You can have thousands of distributors, but
you need consumer sales to generate income. That means
you need a product that consumers will want to buy and
that will live up to its expectations after it is sold.
Generally, the best MLM products are unique, not
available through traditional retail stores. The real
test: Would you or a family member buy the product at
the suggested price?
* Nothing beats hard work. Don't think that money
will just roll in as long as you find the right MLM
company to join. Succeeding in MLM requires long hours
and strenuous effort; in that respect, MLM is no
different from any other enterprise.
* You're a manager now. If you have people in
your downline, they're you're responsibility. You have
to motivate them, deal with their personal problems,
handle customer complaints, and so on. You have more
flexibility and less responsibility than you have in a
corporate management position, but you still have to
get the most out of your distributors.
* The organization matters. No matter how hard
you work or how good your product is, you still need to
sign on with a reputable, competent MLM organization.
You need to be sure products will be shipped on time
and checks will be paid. So check into a company's
background before making any commitments.
