Multi Level Marketing bugs me.
Before you go off and flame me for saying this let me explain… I understand that SOME people can make money on MLM and I understand that some companies actually sell products (and some decent at that). But, for all of these companies you make more money by signing up other people then you do selling products. And some are just straight up pyramid schemes like Cash Gifting.
My problem is that they prey on the down trodden, the struggling, the poor with empty promises of wealth and riches. The other day I got a youtube connection from this guy:
This is the kind of message that drives me nuts. Wake up drive your 100,000 car to the Barnes and Nobel, post some stuff on the internet and watch it roll in. That’s a pretty typical day for an Internet Marketer, MLM Sales Person, Business in a Box…yea right.
On the other hand, I received another invitation the week before from Matt at Cash At Hand. With my usual skepticism I clicked through and was surprised. While Matt does talk about some Internet Marketing schemes a lot of his messages are spot on for entrepreneurs.
What I like about Matt is his core message does not play to our natural want to take the easy path to riches but rather the high road of exploring your passions, working hard on your self and your business, and harvesting fruits from the seeds you plant…long term.
Plus his presention style is hilarious.
