Why Would Top Recruiters Quit MLM?
Are you debating about quitting MLM, Direct Sales, and the entire Network Marketing industry?
Have you lost your up-line and are questioning why they left the company if they were doing so great?
Here is our story of why we left MLM…
In today’s post we answer the million dollar question of why would top recruiters quit MLM? Read more…!
Every day we come across so many people from different MLM companies who are struggling with building their business from home.
You would think it’s the new marketers who are in the learning phase and just got started but honestly it is the top recruiters who are dealing with dilemas of their marketing infrastructure.
As top recruiters ourselves we know the number one reason so many people are having such a hard time building a business and we are going to help you understand the truth about why the “Big Top Players” are leaving their companies.
Rich and I combined managed to recruit over 5,000 team members during the time of our active roles as leaders in several MLM companies.
Within the following year everyone was gone from the ground up because the companies were having major corporate issues and closed their doors.
But that sure didn’t stop us from trying again and then we ended up building a international team with the last MLM we were in and expanding into several Latin american countries in the Hispanic and Malaysian market all online.
While things where growing great for us and our sales team we received the worst news which is we lost the opportunity to grow a massive team with lots of diamond leaders.
Basically the rug got swept underneath us due to unethical business practices that we disagree with which left a sour taste in our mouth about the MLM industry.
The more time we spent away from all the MLM BS and hype we began learning the truth about how the top recruiters are building online and started learning their strategies by becoming professional internet marketers ourselves.
See most people get involved in MLM because either a friend referred them to the business through a flip chart presentation or they stumbled on to their website.
MLM is not the only vehicle to earn additional income because we have been earning additional income through a different business model called, “Affiliate Marketing”.
Many Network Marketers feel that Affiliate Marketing is the same as MLM and try to use it with their MLM replicated website but there is a very big difference.
