By now it's time for them to swallow a little pride, eat some crow, and admit that in most cases their sponsor told them to contact people and approach recruitment in this fashion. This is where the problem starts and one of the many reason why so many people have been "burned by an MLM program."
The hard truth for most to accept is that it is not the MLM program that failed them. With a few small exceptions, most MLM programs are by far built pretty well. If they can work in theory, and on paper, they could work for you.
For those seriously looking for an MLM program, there is no better advice I can offer than to provide a simple analogy to describe the lame excuses you get from thousands of MLM failures. Excuses are like... oh well, you know!
Whenever I hear someone say they have joined an MLM program, or any money making opportunity, and they indicate the "program was no good." I ask them a couple questions, of which they in most cases give the same basic, tired, worn out, lazy answers over and over and it goes like this.
Lazy Fred: "I joined this MLM company and it was a bad program. That's why it was impossible for me to make any money at all."
Britt: "What was the MLM program or company supposed to do for you?"
Lazy Fred: "It was supposed to make me rich!"
Britt: "Oh I see, and what were you supposed to do?"
Lazy Fred: "What do you mean?"
Britt: "I mean, what were your responsibilities?
Lazy Fred: "?"
People expect to join a program, and then go to bed poor, and wake up rich. If it were this easy folks, everyone would be a millionaire! The same thing is true with exercise. This brings to mind another great analogy to describe the excuses given by the fallen, would be MLM multi millionaire, excuse givers.
Look at how many different ab machines are selling on TV. Notice how they each try and sell you on how much easier their unit is and how much easier it will be to "get the hard, washboard abs you've always wanted." with theirs. Which ab gadget is really the best, I mean which one really works better than the others and stands out above the rest? The answers is none! Each ab machine or gadget works, but only if you use them regularly!
This is a great place for me to ask a very revealing question. Where does the blame lie if you make the decision to not use the exercise equipment? Sure the answer is simple, it's your fault if you don't use it. Can you blame the exercise equipment for your own personal choice not to use it? Of course you can and that's what most MLM failures do every single day!
In life we associate one of two emotions to everything we do. Those two emotions are pleasure, and pain. Would you touch a hot stove burner with your bare hand? Not unless you are a nut. You know you will feel pain. Would you give your spouse or significant other a warm hug and a kiss? You bet, and also you would come back for seconds! You know you will feel great pleasure by doing so. MLM programs are the very same. It's easy to make excuses so you do not have to feel or experience the emotional pain.
In closing I want to touch on another area that is also critical to your MLM financial success. Just because most MLM programs are sound and could work for you, if you stop making lame excuses and work them, doesn't mean you should just dive in head first without applying some common sense logic. What do I mean by this? Here's a few things to stay away from when picking a very good MLM program.
Do not enroll in an MLM program where you are locked into paying any type of monthly fee regardless of if you earn any commissions. Do not join it!
Do not enroll in an MLM program if you are required to purchase product or samples of any kind. You will end up with a garage full of supplies and no income to show for your efforts!
Do not enroll in an MLM program that requires you to mail tapes, brochures, drag people to meetings, get people to join you in conferences calls etc. etc.
The above three MLM rules for success will save you lots of time, frustration, and money! Why are so many MLM programs built to include the three items above? Once you really understand this answer, you will be able to easily find a truly, well designed program that is designed for the members and not just the company. A program that requires one or more of the above from you, was never designed with you in mind in the first place. It was designed to make the company money every month no matter if you ever perform or not. Read this paragraph over and over until you get my point.
The bottom line is only two percent (if that) ever make any money in MLM. In order to make serious money with any MLM, you have to have several very serious and motivated people signed up under you and working the program with significant focus and energy full time. If they slack off then so does your income. Personally I don't want to have to reply or depend upon another person for my own income. I like to make my own way and know I will be rewarded for the time, energy, and effort

HTML and PHP Coders-Make Money Outsourcing your SkillsThe secret to breaking into the market is learning what problems currently exist in Internet marketing and the Webmaster community and creating a program or script that either greatly improves or fixes the problem. Products like this really soar in a very short period of time.

The 14 Point Web Hosting ChecklistHow To Select A Web Hosting CompanyWhen starting out, it is easy to overlook some of the most important factors when selecting a web host while paying too much attention on great features which you may not need at the start.For example, most new webmasters judge a web host by the amount of disk space they offer. The thinking is generally, the more the better. There are many other factors to take into consideration.
