Network Marketing (MLM) Delivers (2)

Paul Zane Pilzer -- Creating Fortunes in the New Economy

Network Marketing (or MLM) has been a controversial subject for decades.  The like of aggressive selling tactics, pestering friends and families, and pyramid and ponzi schemes which are all illegal, have all made a bad name on the industry.  These things are unprofessional and have to be condemned.

However, as with most things, network marketing (or MLM) has gone through the test of time and has come to a more matured being.  The industry is now regulated (by the Direct Selling Association) worldwide, with representations in different countries.  The industry has been growing rapidly more so in the recent years.  It is an industry which consists of over 50 million people working part-time or full-time.  More and more people are crossing the line from other professions such as doctors, accountants, consultants, engineers, teachers, dentists, I.T. people, etc.  These people have created a different landscape in the industry, more so in professionalism and sophistication. It is a credible business.

Network marketing (or MLM)’s significance in our economy has never been undermined despite the few shortcomings and bad apples.  It can stand the test of time because it is by far the most viable choice for an average person to succeed in wealth creation.

No wonder Paul Zane Pilzer, the best-selling author on economic trends, predicts that in the ten years from 2006 to 2016, just America alone would witness an additional ten million millionaires from this industry.  The history is in the making.  Would you like to be part of it?  Would you like your children to be part of it?

If network marketing (or MLM) is going to be such a significant force in our economy, it is a pity to see people miss out just because they have dismissed the name “network marketing (or MLM)” on first impression.

Knowledge is powerful and awareness is important.  I would like to touch on some points of understanding on the subject in the next few posts.  As people in the industry, we have every responsibility to make network marketing (or MLM) a respectable profession as it truly deserves.
