That may be true, but I prefer traditional marketing to MLM.
Why? First of all, I'm aware that MLM is a basically selling job. Unfortunately, hindi ka bibigyan ng facilities or tools ng boss mo. At mas importante, wala kang exclusive territory. Worse, ikaw pa ang unang gagastos.
But these are not the reasons why I don't want to join. Naisip ko, na sa laki ng puede kong ma-raise by recruiting referrals (or investors), bakit hindi na lang ako magbenta ng sarili kong opportunity to my prospects. Kasi sa MLM, for every P1 million you raise (kasama sa total yung ma-raise ng downline), P100,000 lang yata ang sa iyo. If I raise P200,000 and get the same amount of P100,000, parang mas madali.
Alam mo bang MLM material ka?
All you need is the right MLM with the right product and you're all set to earn what you've never earned before traditionally. Suggesttion lang naman.
Actually, hindi naman talaga ako against MLM. In fact, nag-attend ako sa lahat orientation ng nag-imbita sa akin. I was looking for the most sensible MLM. But I just can't bring myself to join and then use the same "sales pitch" to convince others when I am aware that they have a high probability of losing their money. I said to myself if ever I will join, "I will not sell to my relatives and friends." Dapat ako lang ang naglabas ng pera.
Yung last na nag-imbita sa akin wanted me and a group I just met sa orientation to organize ourselves to sell. We negotiated with this person (upline) to finance at least half of the cost of joining. Pumayag na sana pero nagbago ang isip. So, kaming hindi nakasali was spared the losses because the MLM company closed after 5-6 months yata.
