My Thoughts On Bad Businesses

Tweet

My discussion is on IBO's or what we call MLM's. You might have heard of these before such as people claiming you can make over $125,000 or even close to a million dollars doing such business associating on the internet or recruiting people to buy various products that involve health products or cosmetics for women. You hear it all the time on the news, maybe in a mall, a swap meet that you can have financial freedom, have more time with your family, don't have to worry about looking for a full time job or you can make easy money. I have experienced with this type of so called business and to tell you the truth no matter how much time or effort you try to put in this you won't be gaining much money or are you going to have time with your family or maybe even yourself. You might have heard of Quixtar, Amray or any other affiliated businesses such as these. You might have gotten a call from a friend to invite you to these meetings. You hear from a person that does a presentation due to the system and how it works. You are given samples of health products such as energy drinks or even other products for women that involve make up. The key to these type of businesses is a lot of recruiting growing numbers of people. Now for the part in order to start off getting involved with the business, such as Quixtar, you pay about 3 things that total up close to $300. Addition to that, you will find yourself going to a lot of different meetings where people try to motivate new comers or even recommend them to buy these business books such as to become a leader/how to become reach. Most of the time you will find yourself spending more money on these meetings, traveling and even have difficulty selling products. Even if you did have an online mall, taking the word of mouth to step up selling these things. Now if you have ever watched dateline with MSNBC with Chris Hanson there was a dateline news on the coverage on Quixtar. It was not good news at all. The problem with such MLM's or IBO's people get in the rush that they believe in something which can be a false hope. It becomes like a cult or people brainwashed thinking they will achieve financial freedom. I didn't even get into this type of madness. The problem is what trying to shake off these people who kept calling and leaving messages. It felt like in my past history of a Church I used to go to where you were like obligated to go. Well they don't call no more and I'm glad they don't. I realize that us people in life have to do something that can make something an impact not only to ourselves but the people surround us. We realize that easy money doesn't exist, you have to work hard at something, grow in order to achieve where you need to be.
