The reason MLMs focus on recruiting so much is because they realize the power of duplication. I am involved in a MLM type business and there is of course alot of focus on sponsoring but there is also alot of money to be made even if you never sponsor someone, and there is absolutely no pressure to sponsor if you choose not to. shoot me a email if you want to learn about what I am doing no obligation no hassle just some information.

First, I must tell you that pyramid schemes are illegal. My company actually focuses on 5 areas and basically you choose. We have the actual membership sales. We have recruiting. We offer it as a benefit to companies. We can offer it to small businesses and to truck drivers. So, needless to say,we do not just focus on recruiting, it is whatever you are best at!
Absolutely every MLM company focuses on sales. Sales are what keep a company in business. The recruiting part is merely another avenue of moving more product. All businesses stay in business by promoting sales. If they were to choose to market their product in a store, they would have to pay a great deal of overhead, such as the building itself, the utilities, logistics, employees, etc. Because their product is unique, they choose to market their product through representatives, and distribute the money they would have otherwise used for the running of a building into the hands of the people who are doing the actual work. One way to look at it is if I were to do 80 hours of work per week in sales, I would be exhausted. If I found 10 people to each work 8 hours in one week, I have created leverage. That way, you are actually selling more product because it is being done through a group effort.
Some people choose to do all of the sales themselves. That is fine….they are earning a percentage on everything they sell.
Others choose to recruit. That is fine also, they are merely getting help with moving the product and giving that person an income opportunity. Every MLM company I have ever been involved with is sales oriented. Just like any other company, you need to move product in order for the company to stay in business.
What I prefer about MLM to working in a retail store, is when I move product, I get paid in direct proportion to my efforts. When I worked retail, my manager made more than I did, no matter what. If I had a great sales day, I was still paid an hourly wage. In MLM, I receive a percentage which is an incentive to work harder at moving product and increasing sales.
I not only move a great deal of product myself, but others have chosen to do what I do based on my earnings. If they decide not to continue, they no longer get paid. If they choose to work hard, they can receive the same amount I do. It’s a choice people have to make.
I have a problem with working for someone else, selling their product, and they get the big cut. Any retail store is a pyramid structure in that the owner makes the biggest cut, the managers make more than the employees, who do all the work. Any store owner will tell you that without employees, they have no business, yet they are not rewarded for their efforts.
But in answer to your question, our company is 100% into moving the product and getting it into consumers hands….just like any sales company out there.
If you are asking about company own agenda, surely there are lot of companies that asks sales and retail. However distributors seems to have different agenda. if they said selling then they will freaked 70% nonsales type people in our society. Network Marketing is a combination of Direct Sales and Franchising. if one want to stay in Direct Sales only (although not recommended by some gready upline) there is no problem. If the product is retailable then direct sales can be great.
MLM can be great without recruiting… if the product is retailable. Customers are great source of money. Recruiting is important if one want to utilize other peoples time and help people by helping themselves. duplicated effort is the most important key on recruiting. Customer can create point value however they may not duplicate.
About MLM Industry i can say…
The more education you have about mlm, less upline control you have on you. Thanks
Any company that focuses more on sales than recruiting by definition is not multi level marketing. This is why you never see MLM companies whose main focus is not on recruiting (regardless of what people in MLM will tell you).
Its amusing to hear some of the answers.
“The power of duplication”??? - what exactly are they duplicating. People in MLM are their biggest customers! So, they are duplicating selling nothing and signing up everyone they can think of to sell nothing (other than to themselves) as well. Its funny when you think about how the MLM corporation is set up, they merely make money by having people sign up for a dream who buy all this product of their own. THEY MAKE NEARLY ALL THEIR MONEY OFF THE REPS BUYING THEIR OWN PRODUCTS! The fact that the corporations are doing well is merely a testament to the fact that they were very good at convincing their reps to buy a lot of product.
“My company focuses on 5 areas”. Right, but they tell you the only way to make real money is to recruit. Why do you think no one chooses to make big money selling instead choosing to recruit? Because the MLM dream is based on making money by recruiting, not selling product. Sure, you need to meet your minimums, but most do this buying their own product.
What value do store owners give to their employees? Are you KIDDING me??? Its called a paycheck! If its a commissions job, then they earn commission on their sales. Meanwhile, most people in MLM lose money because they don’t focus on personal sales.
If MLM was about sales, 90% of the people who enter MLM would never join. MLM organizations are not made up predominantly of sales people.
