Background
There is a common misconception that Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) is just another pyramid scheme, pyramid schemes are illegal but MLMs are not, and for this reason a lot of pyramid schemes try passing themselves off as MLMs. This article explores what a pyramid scheme is, what an MLM is, and why they are different. Please note that over 13m Americans make a living from working in MLMs, and this would not be possible if it were a scam.
Pyramid Schemes
Pyramids are where the person that joins the scheme before you makes more money than you do, there are no exceptions to this rule. In short all the money in such a scheme flows to the top, and you have no opportunity of earning more than your sponsor.
In most such schemes there are no tangible products, and the focus is more on people buying training aids and attending seminars at vastly inflated prices. You cannot make money being a member of such a scheme unless you are close to the top, and you are in effect conning people out of their money.
What Makes MLM Different?
Most people that have either thought about joining an MLM or even have joined and are looking to sponsor people have encountered someone who has told them that this is just another one of those pyramids, and you only make money by joining near the start. Well all MLMs have limits on the number of generations that you can earn bonuses from, typically at most this is seven generations or they put a cap on the earnings for a particular bonus. This alone means that you have the possibility of earning at least as much as your sponsor if you put the same time and effort into it as they have!
In an MLM there are real products, unlike in a pyramid scheme. For you to be successful in an MLM scheme you must be a product advocate and believe in it, if you do not you will not be successful. To be successful you need to be able to take on the learnings from your sponsor, apply them to your own business and duplicate. It is not so much a sales business as a sharing business, if you have to hard sell a product to a customer or a potential member of your team then you will ultimately fail. This is the very opposite of what it takes to be successful in a pyramid scheme.
In short MLMs reward people who share, train and mentor people to their success. If you believe in the product then that is half the battle won, people smell belief a mile away and it is contagious.
