Multi-Level Morons...

This is an interview from Eric Worre's daily mlm show "NetworkMarketingPro.com".
He and Randy Gage discuss how "Multi-Level Morons" are ruining the home-based business industry. Don't be one of them:



I'm begging you.  Please don't be a multi-level moron!

We've made so much progress over the last few years.  Network
Marketing has evolved into the mainstream and gained a level of
credibility few would have dreamed possible.

The business has attracted some of the biggest companies and
investors from the corporate world. We've gotten noticed with
positive publicity in the mainstream press.  Financial experts like
Pilzer, Kiyosaki and Bach are falling all over themselves trying to
win influence with us.

The skepticism that we used to face with prospects has pretty much
become a thing of the past.  Just about everyone knows someone that
is earning five or six figures a month in our business.  And most
of them are fascinated by it.

We've helped tens of thousands of people to control their destiny,
create financial freedom, and live their dreams.  People of all
ages, and from all walks of life have been able to create cash flow
machines producing substantial incomes.  Many people--like me--have
been able to move from poverty to wealth.

We've been able to manifest the lifestyles we promote: driving the
free bonus cars, winning the free trips, and having the time for
the people and causes that are important to us.  We've proven
that's it's not hype--the dream is real.

Probably more importantly, we have produced financial relief to
millions of struggling people.  This is much bigger in the grand
scheme of things than the huge incomes many of us leaders have been
blessed with.  I'm afraid we have become jaded.  If someone isn't
pulling in at least $25,000 a month, we almost look on that as a
failure.

Yet we know that 80 or 90 percent of the bankruptcies today could
be averted with a mere $300 or $400 a month in additional income.

In today's difficult economy, Network Marketing is providing a
lifeline of financial security to millions.  Most companies are
paying out somewhere between 30 to 50 percent of their sales into
their compensation plans.  That means commissions of at least $40
BILLION are being paid out annually to distributors around the
world.

This money is buying groceries, funding schools, providing
medicine, supporting charities, making car payments, and keeping
mortgages current.  Take that money out of the economy and it would
create a huge vacuum and cause great hardship.

So what's the one thing that can set us back?

Social media sites.  Or more specifically, the thousands of people
using them to Spam, pitch and just generally alienate people about
our profession.

They just don't get it.

They set up a Twitter account and then send a pitch out every four
hours.  Of course the only people following them are in their
group.  Everyone else unfollows them as fast as possible.

Or my favorite, they make all kinds of tweets about the Randy Gage
system, Randy Gage training, or Randy Gage videos with a link.  And
then the link is to a landing page on which they have cut and
pasted a paragraph or two of copy from my website, or linked to one
of my YouTube videos - then they patch on a pitch for their deal.
They should be ashamed of themselves.

Then there are the Facebook idiots...

They go around to the pages of people with a large amount of fans
and post their pitch every day until their account gets suspended.
Or they start a group, making look like it's a legitimate
collection of people interested in marketing or business.  Then
they start sending their pitches every day.  And of course many of
the people who are attracted to the group are multi-level morons
themselves, so they all start putting their pitches on the wall.
Pretty soon it's just a huge Spam-fest and it collapses on itself.

The other thing they do is spend hours every night looking for
other groups to join.  And of course as soon as they're accepted,
they start posting their crap on the wall or emailing it to the
whole group.  They can't figure out why Facebook keeps closing down
their account.

Then we have the attraction marketers telling people they can build
the business sitting home in their bunny slippers...

And the pay-per-click con artists buying company and leader names
and then trying to redirect the hapless souls that click on them
into buying their lead generation systems...
And the jerks who tag pictures and videos of their products with
the names of these same companies and leaders, even though they
have nothing to do with them.  I could go on, but you get the
picture.

If you're doing these things, please stop!  They don't work.
