If Network Marketing (MLM) is a Pyramid Scam.

Then why is it, in any good company that the top income producers are rarely the Master Distributors.
The Master Distributor, is the first person the company signs on to be a representative. In all instances, they have everyone in the company under them, for lack of a better term, they are the top of the pyramid.
Yet, time and again, in many companies, they do not make the most money, so if it is a pyramid scheme, why is that?

I think that there is a lot of difference between a pyramid scam and an MLM. An MLM actually has something that you are able to show for your investment while in the case of a pyramid scheme there is nothing to show for the money that you've invested in it. MLM is actually marketing and it has been around for quite a while and it is proven. Pyramids have also been around for a while, but there has never been a pyramid that doesn't eventually collapse.

You are a gem Dorannmwin, a gem indeed. There are many people that flat out disagree with you.
But you got it in one.
Though, Pyramids have developed from the structure of MLM's, kind of like sleazy salesmen, develop from the structure of good salesmen. Same job, different ideals. One far outweighs the other, when you take the time to get educated.
Sincerely and With Appreciation.
