At times, you'll meet people who you think would be great prospects

for joining in your MLM or network marketing opportunity with you.

The only problem is they are opposed to the MLM concept and don't

want anything to do with one.



So how do you respond to their complaints?



Below is a listing of some of the common argument about MLMs

AND more importantly, some good information to combat those

arguments.



Argument #1 -- MLMs are just Pyramid Schemes Designed to Rip

People Off.



First off, make SURE you are in a REAL MLM that actually

accomplishes something because that will be your best argument.

You should be making your money from product sales NOT

"headhunter fees" or money collected from signing new members.

That is questionable and not readily defendable.



A true MLM, however, is simply a distribution system that allows

individual people the chance to create income for themselves through

the distribution process. It is shaped like a pyramid, yes, but then

what distribution system isn't?



A factory that fills several warehouses, then sends products to multiple

distribution centers, then out to hundreds of districts, then thousands

of stores, and finally millions of consumers still takes on the pyramid

shape. That's just how distribution of any product is accomplished.



In an MLM, however, that distribution process pays money directly

to as many individuals as can sell product. Now isn't that better for

you than the traditional system where all the money stays at the

corporate level?



Argument # 2 -- I Don't Want To Have To Push Products On My

Friends and Everyone Else I Know



First, ONLY join an MLM that offers products you believe in.



Then,

you won't be pushing anything, you'll be RECOMMENDING.



Also, think, I mean really think, about all of the times you've

recommended movies, foods, drinks, music, doctors, health products,

books, restaurants, cars, equipment, appliances, web sites, games,

sports, stores, and many other things to your friends and other people

that you've met.



You do it all the time, don't you? The only difference is that in an

MLM, you get PAID for doing it, and you still are only recommending

something that you believe in.



What could be wrong with that?



Argument # 3 -- I Wouldn't Know Who to Talk to About the MLM

Opportunity or the Product.



Many people will give you the same argument. "I don't know

anybody." Usually, however, if pushed they find they know a LOT

more people than they realize. Plus remember, every person you

know has a lot of other contacts they will talk to if you first interest

them. That's the 'networking' part of network marketing.



As for not knowing who to begin with or how to go about it, that's

only because their mind has not yet been pushed to think about such

things. First just get prospects to accept the possibility of network

marketing or an MLM, then their own thoughts of how they could do

it themselves will follow.



Fate, chance, and coincidence are words used by those not thinking

ahead to describe the good fortune of those who are. Those who do

look to the future describe the same good fortune as results of their

efforts.



Argument # 4 -- I Don't Have the Time or the Money



Starting your own business through an MLM or network marketing

opportunity is the easiest, least costly, least time consuming way of

beginning a business ever made possible. Where else could a person

have resources, products, assistance, and support service all in place

right from the onset with such a small investment?



As for time, this type of business is excellent simply because it does

not require any set hours. Naturally, the more time and effort put into

an MLM the better the expected results, but there are no minimum

requirements either. If you are too busy with other things, the MLM

can go on hold until more time is available. It's the most flexible way

of doing business there is.



Certainly these are not all the arguments people have against joining

an MLM or network marketing opportunity, but they are among the

most common. They are, at least with a good MLM opportunity,

completely unfounded as well. Use these explanations to offer

answers to your prospects.

answered.
