Wow. Sounds like you never had good support.

I hate it when people who can't make it because of their own lack of knowledge and skills absolutely trash the company just to justify their own failure. I guess a football player that didn't make it into the NFL would feel better if he said that football doesn't work. Network marketing is far better than any job, will offer you a far better income than any job will at retirement age, and if you develop the duplication right in any network marketing company, it will absolutely pay you very well. You struggled because you didn't form a solid team.

Like so many others, you didn't embrace the company and its products. You tried to do it your way, gave up after only finding a couple of people, and got stuck on the small dot (failure to meet the requirements that all companies have) and because of the fact that you missed a $600 check, you totally forgot about the millions that were down the road for you. I know Market America and it IS the better company. The new salon technician may be able to make a higher PROFIT from a product she just sells, but if she stops selling it, the money stops.

PERIOD. You are totally NOT understanding residual income and duplication. It takes work, dedication, not sweating the small stuff. You were the sole producer of the BV.

That's not how it works. You don't have to buy tons of product. Everyone just does a little bit each, and it compounds. I absolutely celebrate Market America as the top company out there.

There are many great ones, but my dear, don't trash what for so many who did it right are sure glad they did. Simply owning a salon and doing makeup at weddings, selling product in the salon will never get you a great retirement. Eventually you can't stand for that many hours as you age, and you won't have the money you'll need to retire you at all. Every company has whiners and complainers.

The truth is, network marketing is the answer. But you have to step up and grow to professionalism and know how not to purge your volume. In other companies your volume will purge every month if you don't do everything right. Sorry to hear you quit.

You either needed a stronger upline, or you decided you wanted to do it your way. I hope you will find your way back and be ready to do it right this time so it's not such a struggle.

People need to start taking responsibility for their own actions. MA is like anything else in life.....if you don't put anything in, you won't get anything out!!!

Grow up people and just do what the business model requires you to do and you'll make the money. It's really that simple!!!!

Guest

Have you ever tried the business? Did your lawyer do the business?

Before you talk, do it first. And who told you do sell door to door?

Clearly you got your facts all mesed up. Speak to a distributor so you know how things work.

Guest

Big words smooth talking u shouldn't have to buy the product if there is a Web site they paid for they order online why do you have to go door to door selling when there is a Web site explain that your chatter makes now sense

You dont do door to door.. Unless you want to do so..

Thats why you have a website.. So they can order through there.

Simple as that. Why complicate things?

Im sorry you had a bad experience about it, and sorry you were in a bad team. But its never about hard selling, your boyfriend must have had a small goal or dream in life since he couldnt get pass that stage.

Ive been with this business for 4 months and i have already got back my investment and some. Dont get me wrong, im still struggling. Im always on the negative side on my bank account. But its not a reason to quit.

If you do this business alone you will die. (Figuratively speaking) you will quit the business, this business is not meant to be individualistic. Thats why they ask you to find 2 people who are willing to go the distance. Who has the same goals and dreams as you.

Not a bunch of posers who thought they have bought a lottery ticket and just sits there and wait for the money to come in. If youre willing to work for a company and be paid minimum wage, apply that same work ethics you have in that job into this and you my friend will reach to the top. But what are you willing to sacrifice and do in order to get there?

In this type of business, you fail because of yourself. And you become successful because of yourself.

Market America's business plan not for everyone. Like every other business, to actually get good residual money YOU NEED TO WORK HARD, but also you might fail because of poor support

The reason for most failures is because people didn't have good enough support, or didn't have the right mindset

I made fun of a friend of mine for buying into what I viewed as a scheme.

Then I saw another friend of mine who was doing very well. He works at Independence Blue Cross as a tax accountant, but currently makes more money residually from Market America than his current paycheck (4500-****/month residually). How long did it take him? He says 4 years of mistakes and failures.

But he never let it get him down.

Now, some complaints are valid, Market America does indeed make things seem simpler than it really is. But hey, if they straight up said "alright, this is gonna be really damn hard to work" then they'd instantly lose a lot of interest. However, they say in every seminar, this is not a 2-3 week or 2-3 month plan, this is a 2-3 YEAR plan. Quitting before the first year is even over just proves that it's not a "get rich quick" scheme.

If you got a bunch of money in one year, THAT is what I would call a scheme

I actually know someone who quit MA, she thought it was pointless after a year and no residual income. Well, first of all she only committed a "year", second I found she didn't really try all that hard.

Also, people seem to approach this completely wrong. If you think to yourself "oh, this is a way I can be rich!", wrong mindset completely, this is why people think of it as a scam, "recruiters" just try to get people to join so they can make residual income and people can see that, hence why there's a lot of failure and bad hype. You should view this as a way to help people, like the products.

In fact, my elderly relatives have felt great with Prime Joint support and a friend of mine's father's brain tumor shrunk 40% with Resveratrol! Also, when I said you need good support. That's true. I'm supported by a group of other distributors.

No they are not making millionaire money, but many of them have indeed hit pin levels of residual income, heck I've actually made more money from retail than some of them at this point!

So, to wrap it all up, this is not an easy "get rich quick" scheme, but it's not a massive scam either. The Better Business Bureau gave it an A+ rating in 2013 for a reason, Mayor Philip Levine of Miami Beach himself approves of the company, the products have helped my relatives, my friends, my friends' relatives, and shop.com is indeed a legitimate website

If it's a 2 to tl3 year plan I guess u don't know how to advertise either do u or is this David Hernandez the guy who is on the phone taking orders lol tho your suppose to order online and I have never heard of this so called company either

Guest

Lol.. The reason the company doesnt advertise is because they want you to make the money.

And if you have started the business, you will see in the career manual that you cant advertise. For legal purposes. Company wants you to advertise it by word of mouth. Why complicate things?

Share it with people who are like minded individuals and help them grow. And you only talk to the phone if there was something wrong with your orders online. (If youre just a customer). And if youre a distributor, you call to follow up on your commission or your order messed up or something.

I understand you had bad experience with network marketing, probably bad transaction in the past. Of you have probably started with the market america business, but nobody helped you. Like you said, you have your construction business, youre probably making good money right there. Thats why youre not in the lvl you thought you would be, because youre already making crazy money and doesnt find the value in doing this business.

If thats the case, just be a customer. But keep the business, pay the 20$ for the cheap online assistant, and put in 50bv around 150$ monthly for products that you use, shampoo, body wash, multivitamins, for your car. And once you are ready to stsrt the business you are already half rich.

Coz im sure youre team is already building the other side. When you decide to start you wont have to start at 0.

Very true with any job but it's online if no one knows how to advertise it how do u get customers and how can it take 2 to 4 years it's online all u need is customers telling people to make business cards is rediculas

Salesmen have to have the killer instinct but how do they do that online

And motivational meetings that tell u nothing and u pay 30 a meeting this is a piramid scheme nothing more the top people get paid but the sales people get screwed I'm in construction I am the owner and what I've been told this is a scam even my corporate lawyer looked into it and reported it to the better business Bureau well see what happens

And having the so called person getting people to join taking them to a casino with one person buying one bottle of vitamins and this person is a personal friend and the seller loses 100 gambling and he knows the seller has a gambling problem rather seems like they r using their weaknesses to get them hooked but selling one bottle in a month and it's 50 and gambling loss is 100 how does he make money and they ask him to give them a list of friends and funny the guy in his list is one who buys yet he asked how to get into it he's told to come t a meeting and never shows up people in this company r *** men nothing more so I myself with my lawyers saying it's a scam I believe this company is nothing more than a scam

Having worked with a few mlm companies I understand the frustration. I myself just joined Market America.

People refer to companies like this as pyramid scams. That only the first people in make the big money. This is however not true in market America. A good friend of mine who has been involved for 5 yrs, but truly working the proven methods for the last year is making more money than his sponsor.

He was able to quit his job, it's now paying for a new home with the income he is generating. In a pyramid system, like our government, our a typical business, no one can surpass the top person. You own your own business, no one in your company well make more than you. Nothing wrong with that.

Are there people that do not train the right way, yes. Are there some that glorify it and make it seen easier that it is, yes. But like in any profession, you have to work hard to grow and make more money, whether it's to get a raise in a traditional job, or to build your business in a mlm (multi level marketing).

Bottom line, if you are unfamiliar with how it works, our had a bad experience with an individual, it's not right to trash talk about it in a whole. That would be like me saying you or your company was trash because I had a bad experience with one of your employee's, that wouldn't be right.

U r just rediculas why would people making that kind of money work their ads off going door to door or is he just someone to *** people into joining yeah that seems more like it you are liars and cheats you get rich from recruiting gullible people and u get a commission to do so
