When considering the possibility of whether or not to join MLM, (aka “network marketing”) opportunities, there are a number of things to keep in mind. First and foremost; is it a true MLM company with a real product or service? Or is it just a pyramid recruitment program?

Genuine multi-level marketing (MLM) opportunities always have actual products and/or services that are valuable, that people would pay for, even without the money making potential being involved. Without the service or product, then it is a pyramid and it is not legal. In addition to being illegal, it will collapse, and everyone except a few people at the top, will lose everything.

You should ask yourself, what you are expecting to get out of it? Do you need to achieve a six figure income within a few years? Many people have been able to do that, because the structure of MLM allows you to leverage the action of other people, which is a general wealth principle, but the odds are, you may never earn six figures per year; and if you do, it might take ten or more years. Maybe you will get there, but there are no guarantees.

On the other hand, you may realize that there is zero possibility of earning six figures at your present place of employment, therefore joining a network marketing program as a way of making some extra money, could be a good decision. You do not usually need to dedicate but a few or possibly several hours a week to it, at the most. You might like it and go on to grow your downline to a size that lets your quit your day job.

The beautiful thing about MLM is, you are rewarded several layers down. That means, you make money from the efforts of your direct referrals, as well as their referrals, and also the referrals of your referrals, on down the line for several levels.

What you mainly invest in, with MLM, is time. Some people complain that it takes too much time, but they should consider the money and time invested in a traditional business, that could go five years, and only then, see their first profit. It is not uncommon to hear stories from MLM millionaires who talk about the times they almost quit because they wanted instant gratification.

With proper MLM training from someone who is experienced and successful, you should be able to do well if you choose to join MLM. There are basic skills and tools a good mentor can help you acquire & learn to use, that will assure your success, if you are willing to make the commitment and persevere.
