Starting an MLM

Now, this is where the money is. When you want to make a lot of money with multi-level marketing, you must be the creator of one. Don't join one. Think about it - everybody who joins will have money that trickles up to you. Your downline will grow like a pyramid until it is saturated, then it will collapse. Okay, great. So, then you'll move on to the next city. There are infinite cities in the United States alone to do this in. If you join one, you'll have this top-heavy organization pressing down over your head, taking most of the money you make. If you start one, you'll be the top-heavy organization pressing down, taking everyone's money. Make sure that you are at the top, and go city by city, starting more and more downlines.

MLM vs Pyramid

Many people confuse multi-level marketing companies with pyramid schemes. There is, however, an important difference. While technically, a multi-level marketing company has a product and a pyramid scheme does not, that is not our definition of their difference. A multi-level marketing company must have a product, but, in our opinion, a pyramid scheme can have a product, too. Many "legitimate" companies are, in our mind, pyramid schemes. The difference, in our mind, is that multi-level marketing companies preach their products while pyramid schemes preach the opportunity to make a lot of money with their company. If the company preaches the opportunity, they are a scheme, and you should avoid them.
