Book Description
Multi-level marketing companies are a scam. Actually, they are worse than a scam. They are tearing down relationships by turning your friends and your family into customers. Ever heard the expression “Never mix business with family”? There is a reason for that. By adding transactions to your relationships it complicates matters (especially when one or more of you end up losing money). I grew up around multi-level marketing companies and always assumed I would become a representative one day. I’m a natural salesperson and leader so it seemed like a great fit. I couldn’t wait to turn 18 so that I could sign up. But somewhere along the way I started to realize that this business model does not work in the favor of the representatives. I did more research and found out that nearly everyone who pursues this business will lose money. I continued to research and that’s when I started this book. I interviewed some former representatives and found common themes of regret, money wasted, and time lost. As I continued to read other people’s stories, I became passionate about spreading the word -- MLMs are a scam! Unfortunately, I do not see these companies going away through government regulation. If anything, the government is protecting these business. It will be up to us as individuals to open our eyes to the scam that they are and stop joining and supporting them.
