mad.gif I dun understand why u all keeps misunderstanding about people who do direct selling or MLM. Network 21 is just a support system in Amway. For more information, i will explain to u later. Coz I just join this successful group few months ago.

I just give my opinion. N i am not asking u all people join. Doing direct selling is just one part of my job. I doing it for financial freedom and a better lifestyle.

Actually MLM is just nothing. I still Cosway, herbalife, and sunrider member. I do use their product till now. I join Herbalife because I have serious gastric problem. Once I try 2 sets of herbalife protein product. Now my gastric is  decrease and I lose weight in 1 week. So amazing. I join Cosway because of 15 years best frenz ask me to join. I not about MLM brainwash me. I join all MLM coming one sort in a day. Because of friendship.

Joining MLM business all my friends are trusting and believed in me that I can be successful in one day. They not join MLM but they support me and use the Nutrilite n Artistry product. My friends, relatives and family are all use Amway product. Life is happy then before. Healthier than before.

Different people different thinking. U think certain MLM is sucks....why so many people into it? Can anyone explain? It not just people who r stupid or easy for ppl to brainwash or greedy people only join MLM group? Why many people unemployed in Malaysia?

MLM is one part of a company that provide job for people. For example, whoever works in DELL or Intel also one part of direct selling. It just show u a different marketing plan. People who work in restaurant, hospital, and hotel or real estate aso a direct selling.

People who work in hotel marketing line aso do direct selling...they had to promote the hotel facilities to the public. And the restaurant aso same....they need to promote their good n quality food to the public. Hospital is selling service to the public.

How do u buy a car or house or a water filter in your house? Just think about it...anyone study marketing here.

Without MLM company in Malaysia how does people find job or other things. Nowadays our Malaysia economic and financial is poor. Everything is increasing. Lifestyle aso need to be change.

The above question I did not create myself....This question is wat public alwiz ask for? Is not about Amway is about everything.

For those who don't believe or don't want their lifestyle to be upgrade, u just forget what I wrote in this blog.

I just give a comment and i never fear about MLM. Ppl are not easy to brainwash me. I have seen all the MLM marketing plan that have built in Malaysia for past few years. I still think that Amway business is much more safer.

bye bye


Added on May 6, 2008, 8:57 pmif u buy online....ordering product...i won't get any commission. I just a get a points. If you're not amway member , u can aso buy amway product but not use distributor price. Non-member is much more expensive.

If no one is buying product...i won't get anything that month...but ur team member will helps u...each month ur point will increase little bit...till u reach that level. For example Glister Toothpaste (200g) worth RM17 (DP Price) and RM20 is (customer Price). Distributor will have 25% discount for each time u order. And all the product is freshly delivery using airplane everyday from USA to Malaysia.

smile.gif Pls dun promote promote here.....people in this blog not so agree about MLM business. Once people is fail, they will not join again. Because of wrong system that all!

That all I wan to say.

Firstly, I have to comment that your level of English is atrocious. I really had to take a few seconds to direct translate a few sentences into Cantonese to try and understand what you are trying to convey. In addition to that, you mentioned about people in this "blog"; when in actual fact this is a FORUM. A blog is short for weB-LOG which in simple terms means an online diary.

I think in most cases, very few of us actually doubt the authenticity of the MLM product by itself. We do appreciate high and mighty praises MLM agents laud on their products and we're sure that a fair amount of it is true. To be very honest, I am also an "agent" of a MLM but I do not sell my product outside. The main reason I joined is to buy products for my own perusal. If anyone asks me, I'd tell them honestly in my humblest opinion that I believe in the products that I buy and I'd be more than happy to purchase for them too.

I believe the problem comes when MLM agents try to recruit people to join them. In this case, its not about selling the product anymore. It has now become selling the concept of MLM instead of the product itself. Therefore, these agents give most MLMs a bad name by trying to make money off the over-riding commission factor based on the recruitment of members rather than selling the products and earning the commission off that.

How can you compare sales to MLM? As I said above, the MLM industry has fallen more of a "selling of MLM concept" more than a product selling industry now. I'm not saying that ALL MLM agents are like this but there are definitely a fair amount of over-persuasive bad hats out there and that's creating a bad environment for other proper agents. If you're saying that MLM ONLY sells products and there's no recruitment of multi-leveled members then yes I agree with you that sales and MLM IS the same concept (direct selling). But when you have people going around trying to get more money from recruiting members rather than selling the product then you might want to rethink your post. Let me give you an example:-

1. Ogawa staff approaches to sell you a massage chair which helps your blood circulation etc. That's in a way direct selling.

2. Cosway staff approaches you to sell you some Cosway products to improve your health. That is ALSO a way of direct selling.

So these 2 scenarios are more or less equal. However, nowadays you get lots of people who try to sell you the idea of joining the MLM to be "under" them etc; this is no longer direct selling. Therefore it CANNOT and MUST NOT be compared with direct selling.

Once you sell 1 packages you will have 5% commission each time. Same wit people who do in MLM business.

I work in Berjaya Langkawi Beach & Spa Resort in 2006. I went there for industrial attachment. I going there also do the same things. Promoting hotel facilities, spa packages and do my training there as Front Office Assistant. My front office manager alwiz show me how to promote using MLM plan

In conclusion, I am here not promoting product...just a comment. Pls don't take it so seriously. It just a blog.  biggrin.gif

1. Commission earnings on sales is not MLM concept. That's direct sales concept. Upstream and downstream is MLM concept. Get that right.

2. Promoting using MLM plan is still using the concept of direct sales whereby you are selling/promoting your product. Which I already said if that's the ENTIRE MLM concept then that's fine. But the MLM concept is sales of membership and recruitment to create your downstream. That's where is totally different. Please re-read what I said the problem with MLM is. If you don't understand what I said earlier, let me put it in simple English.

IF MLM is ONLY based on selling of product, that is the SAME concept as direct sales where agents get commission on their sales then nobody has any problem with that. BUT MLM also consists of the part where agents want to SELL memberships and RECRUIT new members to join their DOWNSTREAM. That is where my problem is with the BAD HATS in the MLM industry.

3. This is NOT a blog. Go wikipedia what's the definition of a blog.
