The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly of Multi level Internet Marketing

Before I start this post, I would like to give special thanks to my good friend and great Mentoring For Free  Mentor Darlene Mills for giving me the idea and skills of understanding to write this particular post.

Ok, that being said many of you out there who have a home network marketing business may have been doing it for years as where many of you are just getting started.  What ever the case may be you all have to grow with the ever-changing multi level marketing business world. You cannot rely on old ideas and marketing skills that are out dated or have gathered dust on the shelves as to the thinking patterns of every one you speak too being a perfect prospect for what you are marketing. You must always be sharp and ahead of the curve as to whom and what others are offering.

THE GOOD:
In multi level marketing, you can create a residual life long income if you are in a company that supports the five-pillar system. A company that does business with integrity and has a history of always being up on the competition as to creating life long friendships with their clients
understanding the needs of those, they choose to build their business with. Marketing is not the business of selling, as many believe. However, it is the business of building Life long partnerships.

THE BAD:
In building partnerships, we must always understand that not everyone we do business with is all in or will be a good business partner to build your business with. Many people make the mistake of thinking just because someone may show interest in what you are doing does not mean they will remain interested or join your business. In truth many potential clients start out strong with enthusiasm and a can do attitude. However once they realize that there is true work involved they seem to drop off or opt out very quickly.

True five-pillar company does require your time and effort. The fact is you must maintain and grow into your skill level. If you truly want a lifetime of success out of your multi level marketing business.

It is this reason that many fail because they simply lack the skills or know how to get the training they need in network marketing. The facts are clear, the system is geared to have high turn over’s. It is not the individual’s fault as to why many in multi level marketing business’s fail. It is the fault of the individual companies out there who are fly by night here today gone tomorrow masters at the game. Offering the world to their prospective clients
while at the same time, knowing fully what they are offering is limited. That will have nothing to do with lifetime success or building partnerships that can create residual income.

THE UGLY:
Most multi level marketing businesses have a bad reputation because there are thousands of people who nether know anything as to true marketing or have the skills to promote true opportunities.

That being said what they do know and are very good at is understanding the mind set of most people who are looking to make money. They are masters at web site building and wording their policies and procedures. Web sites that draw in the type of people who are not looking for a long term solution to their problems. However a quick pay out or a fast cash dash as I like to call them. Hundreds of splash pages that announce they have the fastest viral program on the internet that can not only make overnight millionaires but in fact require no work on the  part of the individual who is signing up. Why because they claim all the work has been done for you. The fact is each one of these plans have one thing that a true company does not have, they have a statement that they retain the right to change their claims and procedures and policies at any time.

Now the ugly part is that many times if those that are in the companies make money or a commission  check and that company is having a down turn. Well they simply can rewrite there policies and take your earned commission check. Many people who join these companies are so excited at the prospect of landing the whale pay out  that the normal novice would neither understand or realize that the company has nothing but themselves in mind as to compensations.

This why in marketing you must read everything and realize the traps that can cost you. If it sounds to good to be true it probably is. If you truly want to make your multi level marketing business a success then take the time to do the research necessary. Remember all multi level marketing companies will promise you they are the best and have many testimonials as to their legitimacy. However it is up to you to follow up on their claims.
