i have a couple of friends who worked for MLM ( the company name is quickstar) and they are A-N-N-O-Y-I-N-G..
these people are just soo lazy to do anything, all they do is brag about their company ( bcause they want to recruit as many people as they can) i dont think the way the do it will convince anyone to join their business.
its totally pointless anyways. what they do to get money is to get points ( they’ll give u brochures. it has all sorts of things from soap, groceries, vitamins, drinks, cosmetics, etc etc) and the price is not cheap, or even more expensive than general supermarkets ( like safeway, vons, whole foods, ralphs, etc)
ive never even heard of the brand of their stuff, at all.
what makes them think i would spend my money on something not reliable like that? and they are reallyy pushyyy. ugh..

and one day, this friend of mine called me ( we were close before, not anymore) and asks me to give him 50bucks because he needs it for his points. he ASKS for it, not borrow it or anything. tsk

several other friends ( who are in MLM) also called me to attend to this seminar about MLM. and she said that " this is a really good and potential business, and instantly i thought of you! you have great potentials." tsk tsk tsk. they said the exact same thing to everyone. haha.. and one guy who was reallyyy bitchy to my guyfriend, was REALLY nice when he joined MLM. like really2 nice.
before, he wouldnt even looked at my friend when he said HI.

what they really dont know is that we bought their stuff just because we feel awful. ( we are somewhat forced to buy their stuff because they’re my friend)

i think the business is ridiculous anyways. you just collect as many points as u can ( and the way to do it is to buy it YOURSELF. yes.. you buy the stuff at the brocuhes for yourself.) or recruit people ( cause when they join there is a fee and you’ll get comission from it)
and the "prize" if u collect many points is movies tickets, ice cream coupon, etc.
and if you are in a meeting with them, you’ll be treated with cheap buffet food. HAHA

sorry for being soo bitchy about this.. i have nowhere else to talk about this. =P

What you have experienced is true to all MLM companies. They all use the same playbook; recruit family and friends into the business opportunity. Even though all MLM companies have a product or service, their primary goal is to sign people up into the "business opportunity". The reason for this is what makes the business a fraud.

Recruiting new business associates instead of actually retailing a product or service is the primary goal because it is easier to sell a belief that you can make a lot of money with little effort. The products are usually overpriced and only exist to act as a "token". What do I mean by this? When someone becomes a distributor, the only way for that distributor to be "eligible" for commissions is to purchase a required amount of inventory every month. Heck, if you recruit 10 people into the business, they all have to purchase inventory whether they have a buyer or not. If those in your downline are required to purchase $100 worth of product each month, then your downline makes $12,000 worth of purchases for the year. If you get a 10% commission on that, then you made $1200. But why did you make $1200? because those in your downline are forced to make regular purchases. Essentially, you are getting paid to recruit others.

Who are the easiest people to recruit? The MLM playbook tells you to start with your family. Then move on to your friends. Next are your neighbors. Finally your co-workers. It is sad because MLM causes many divorces and family feuds. It destroys friendships and your neighbors will put you on their ignore list.

It is also known and proven that 99% of those who participate never make a profit. The MLM excuse for this is that these people didn’t work the business and are just quitters. However, it is the actual MLM business model that is mathematically designed so that no more than 10% of people in MLM could EVER make a profit at one given time. This is the most conservative model too! Actual tax surveys show that less than 1% of participants actually make a profit.

MLM companies are Pyramid Schemes and should be avoided at all costs. Network Marketing is legitimate, but Multilevel Marketing is not. "Multilevel" is the key word, which by nature of the word means it will construct a model that pays only a few at the top.
