Pyramid scheme or legitimate network marketing opportunity?
Network marketing is a serious business, and it isn't a
get-rich-quick scheme. Success is based on following some basic
principles. You create your own team. You manage this team by
recruiting, training and motivating them. Your team is given a
roadmap, since they look to your success as the model, and then
duplicate that method.
In multilevel marketing, you earn a percentage of what your
downline sells. Downlines are people you sponsor into the
business. Then your sponsors sponsor others, and you have
created a compound growth that can lead to hundreds of more
people coming into your business.
Now you ask: the difference between a legitimate network
marketing business and a pyramid scheme? Pyramids are illegal
and are based on taking advantage of people. For someone to make
money in a pyramid, someone else has to loose money. A pyramid
is strictly a money game and has no basis in real commerce.
Normally, there's no product involved at all, just money
changing hands. Multilevel companies seek to make money with
you. Start-up costs are generally small. These companies want to
make it easy and inexpensive for you. Legitimate companies will
buy back unsold products if you choose to quit. And the key
element: products are sold to consumers. This requires quality
products that are competitively priced.
Network marketing is a people-to-people business where you can
meet new people from all over. It enables you to have fun, sell
a product that you enjoy and stand behind, travel if you like,
and enjoy the benefits of an extra income.
