    Network marketing is one of the best business models. People should def. look into it.

    It teaches you sales, and you are around success oriented people.

    It has a bad rap, but MLM is a great introduction to business. Just make sure you like what you are selling, and the company has good learning opportunities.

    Network Marketing has been around for 50 years

    it wil be the future of the way business is done since paying employees is such a waste of money and paying for office space is a total waste as well

    Well, i think Network marketing is one of the ways to succeed and we should be open about it.
    But i think a better combination would be Internet Marketing and Network Marketing would be the best!

    I am involved in it, on a very part time basis. And I think its great.

    Yes it has a bad rep for many reasons, I think some people are miss-sold onto the idea of getting rixch quick and quitting their job. They dont realise that like any business mlm, takes time and effort. Most people seem unwilling to put any real effort into building their business, and give up and slag it off.

    A bit like affiliate marketing, owning a franchise or a conventional business, if you dont work it, dont expect the rewards.

    I also think people join MLM's to quickly without looking into the business, and making sure its right for them.

    Personally I love it, as an additional income stream.

    It is a great model, if...

    1. You put in the effort. This is about hard work. I know a lot of MLM veterans and they will tell you that to be successful, you have to put in the effort, especially at the beginning.
    2. You believe in the product you are promoting. Does it get you excited? Do you want to tell people about it?
    3. You have good people above you who are great coaches. That is huge.
    4. You keep your system simple and are able to replicate it, so that when you bring in others, you can easily train them.

    This is a very legit business model, but like any industries (just like affiliate marketing), you need to do your homework about the company and the product.

    I think mlm is ok in only one instance, which most ARE NOT.

    If it focuses on selling products and not recruiting more "salespeople."
    Plus you have these other ones like fhtm.net that then nickel and dime their "salespeople" by charging them outrageous prices for a crap web-site that's not unique at all and has about 0 chance of making them any money.
    The founders of the company do well while they get all these poor chumps to go push this crap on all their friends/family.

    As with any business success will depend on the product and support that is in place, the main problem with network marketing is the first three months because people think that they will make money overnight.

    Network marketing, as with any business involves time and effort and this is what some people don't understand. There is big money to be made in it especially if you can get involved in the early days of a companies launch. The best think now is that the whole business can be developed and marketed online without having to 'sell' anything to anyone face to face.

    I have been involved for approximately 13 months and it is the best and most exciting thing that I have ever done!
