Is MLM a Scam?


By Heather Solins

Is MLM a Scam? There are many websites dedicated to calling MLM (Multi-level Marketing) a scam. Is it true?

Let's explore the definition of "scam" From answers.com I found this definition: A fraudulent business scheme; a swindle

Are there some companies that pay a multi-level commission that are fraudulent? Yes. Are there companies that pay a multi-level commission that are ligitimate? Yes.

If it is said that MLM is a scam,

that means that all MLM is a scam. Blanket statements like that are about as valid as saying all fat people are stupid. Since there is at least one honest company in the world that pays a multi-level commission then by definition MLM is not a scam.

I believe that people who dedicate their lives and energy to ripping apart multi-level marketing are those who have gotten hurt and are seeking revenge. You don't find many successful MLM distributors that are ripping on MLM. Those that rip on MLM are those that failed. Plain and simple. They are trying to warn the world that MLM is a scam, but what they are really projecting is "Hey look, I failed at network marketing and I'm blaming everyone else" Further they imply "and I don't want you to try because if you succeed I'll look like an idiot".

Entire sites are dedicated to warning people about the dangers of Amway. That's the biggest MLM company and the biggest target. While it's true that many distributors hype the chances of success, you can't fault the company or say MLM doesn't work. There are too many Amway millionaires to discount it. Amway has made its founders billionaires and they are in business today and as healthy as ever. Scams don't get that big or last that long.

Anyone who calls MLM a is a loser, plain and simple. How's that for a blanket statement? Intelligent people after failing at MLM would say " I didn't have the skills needed to make it work" or , "truthfully I didn't put in my best effort" or even "that company didn't have the right program".

Next time you see a site calling MLM a scam, or someone spouting their view that all MLM is a scam, you are seeing a failure in action.
