Busted! The Top 7 Myths of Network Marketing!

Here are 7 myths that have infected the MLM industry. You need to be aware of them so you can ignore them, break free, and give your network marketing business the chance to succeed.

1. Everyone can be a network marketing prospect and/or recruit. Myth! Not everyone wants what you have to sell and not everyone is interested in running their own network marketing business. People have different goals and interests and it’s a waste of your time and energy to try and convince someone who isn’t already interested in MLM to be a part of your business.

2. You don’t have to be a successful salesman (or woman) to do well in network marketing. Myth! The MLM business model still requires you to develop and use sales techniques. You have to be able to sell yourself, your opportunity, and your product to others.

3. Anyone can create and sustain a successful network marketing business. Myth! Only 1-2% of network marketers ever build a substantial income through their MLM venture. It’s hard work, but it’s also possible if you do it right.

4. Just buy this program that will do everything for you and make you successful. Myth! Even with the best “turn key” system you will still have to do some hard work to make it successful. There’s no free lunch!

5. Our product is the best ever and it will sell itself. Myth! Objects don’t sell themselves. Messages sell products, and the message has to be directed to the right audience. Even Pepsi and Coke still advertise.

6. The difference between success and failure is motivation. Myth! You have to be motivated, yes, but success requires actual knowledge and business savvy.

7. Our MLM system is proven to work. Myth! The old MLM systems are broken. Just look at the attrition rate in most network marketing organizations.
