Are All Network Marketing Business Opportunities Scams?

Posted: Jan 12, 2011 |Comments: 0 |

Whether you are brand new to network marketing and want to start your own home business, or you are already involved in a company and you are looking for another home business opportunity, you will do some research. And of course you want to avoid scams. You've heard countless times that many network marketing and MLM business opportunities are scams, and you do not know if you can actually trust any of these opportunities.

When you search the internet you find a whole bunch of ads, videos, articles about opportunities that are scams and about people who say they have been scammed and are telling their story. You might stumble upon one of those ads or websites where a guy is telling you that "Company XYZ is a scam, a pyramid scheme", and that you should stay away and look at HIS business opportunity instead because HE is the one who has found the real deal.

Well, I'd like to share some thoughts with you.

First of all, for sure there is a lot of garbage on the internet, and this is really critical to do some serious research before joining any business opportunity. So go ahead, do your due diligence, see things for yourself and then make your own decision.

Then, it is a very common tactic on the internet to promote a business opportunity by discrediting other ones, especially if these are good ones. Company XYZ might actually be so successful that discrediting ads, videos, etc. might have popped up all over the internet from competitors who want you to join their business instead of the Company XYZ business.

Personally I would NEVER trust someone who is discrediting a business opportunity just to pitch his own. Because it is someone who lacks ethics, and I think ethics is important if you want to be successful in business in the long run. And then, telling that someone else's business is a scam does not proof that your business is not. Would you want to buy a product because the advertiser is telling you that his competitor's product sucks? Or because he can show you why his product stands out from the crowd and can be a solution to your concerns?

The point is that these techniques actually happen to work pretty well sometimes because those people are playing on our emotions (nobody likes to be scammed and have his dreams crushed), and you know as well as I do that people are driven by their emotions more than anything else. And that's the important point.

So are all network marketing business opportunities scams? Of course not. Doing your due diligence is very important, and you should do it ON YOUR OWN, without listening to every single person who is writing or talking about Company XYZ online. Make sure you really do some solid research and investigate a company thoroughly before making your choice. Look at the company owners, the products, the development plan, and then look at the opportunity as such, the training, the compensation plan.

Once you've made your choice, use a solid attraction marketing blueprint to generate leads and have quality people join your brand new network marketing business organization.

    The main problem in Network Marketing is that people join who 1) People don't really want to network they want everything to be automated and they do not want to have to talk to people. 2) People do not know how to market online or offline.
