So many network marketers are brain washed about there mlm (multilevel marketing ) company that they won't even consider looking at any other company or opportunity that comes there way. The reason why I think this happens is that they have there passion for building there business mixed up with there passion for there company,or maybe even there passion for having a better life is mixed up with the passion for the company also ,or maybe both . In any case there is more than one way to make money online than just signing up people in your down line . Would you drive down a street and just look one way ? No. Did you drive the same route to work before you figured out which route was the fastest ? No. So why do so many people do the opposite when it comes to finding the path to success and just stay on one trail ?


Let me know what you think people and chime in on this one so we can go back back and forth and forth !

Hey there Alvin,

I don't think people are brain washed at all. As a matter of fact, I see it as just the opposite. I think that the internet has made too easy for people to jump from company to company, which in my opinion is a mistake.

I see nothing wrong with being committed to a particular company if:
1. You're having success
2. You've found a group of people and leaders within that organization that you enjoy and learn from.
3. You like the product.

I have no interest in looking at another company because of the things I mentioned above. NOW at the same time, I understand that it's not all about the company. It's about learning how to market, brand, grow and help others.

Alvin.Hi!

People are use to focus in one single task.

Leaders caught all of us in a big stagnation trap to keep us docile...in such a way they stay safe and keep us paying them lots of money for showing us the way to wealth and happiness.

The big stagnation trap is like a production in line like in a factory.

With this system you learn to do only one thing...they call it specialized worker...with that trick you are losing all creativity and saying bye... bye... to all your dreams of wealth happiness and true romantic love.

We must learn " THE SELF-LEADER SYSTEM". This is something I have learned in one of my courses I bought a while ago.

Your leaders cause you to MISS OUT!. YOU and me must NOT let that happen to us and for our love ones.
I have begun building a base of integrated power inside that no establishment-leader can stop. We do not deserve to die unfulfilled, without experiencing wealth, prosperity, and romantic love. We must start right now right here to live the good life we and our family want.

We are taught to avoid change at all cost. WRONG!

The Self-Leader System will provide the way so you can go through a lot of changes and gain more and more INTEGRATED KNOWLEDGE. Those changes will require some getting used to at first. But before long, what seemed unpleasant before will become the most exciting part of your career as MLMarketer...and change...the opposite of a routine rut.

I will write about this in my coming articles...be in the look out!

Be well,

Roger Aburto

You could argue that everyone is brainwashed. After all, we all have certain beliefs.

I believe that the biggest mistake people make is jumping from company to company.

If you're failing in one company, joining another company won't make a single lick of difference.

The company itself isn't all that important.

Until you develop the skills it takes to succeed, people will struggle, regardless of their company.

Just my two cents.

@ Charles , I agree with you . Teaching a man how to fish is better than selling him fish because you teach him how to feed hin self . So let me clear up a few things real quick . Its not good to jump from company to company, learn how to identify a company that you like as well brfore you join . If you know how and understand marketing you can build a down line with any company . Educating your downline is the way to go ,but hardly never happens. It like bringing a new cook into a kitchen with out traing ing him and then wondering wht he messing up . To many people dont train there down line . If your down line has money to advertise with then its more likely they can get some signups. There are free ways to make money on the internet because affilliate programs . If your down could make more money to do more advetising from free monet from afilliate programs you would see a bigger growth in your down line . So you don't jump from company to company you learn how to market any company . Gurus sell other gurus product because it free money . Why shouldn't your newbies do the same until they can make there own product or should they not make there own product also ? If you make a cheep product and sell it for 7 dollars or give it a way ,most likely you can sign the buyer up into your busines as well !

Very interesting thread. I agree with the gentleman who stated the biggest mistake people make is "jumping from one company to another." I know we all have experienced a time where we tried a few different companies to try and find our "home." I know I did. But when someone only puts in a week a couple months into it without using consistency and effective marketing etc. Then you kind of want to question that person. I had a potential member who I was getting to know and she said she tried 6 different companies within a year. I was a little thrown back because of the word "tried" and the fact she did 6. I questioned how productive and committed she would be if she joined my team. Maybe I shouldn't have but I told her that I don't think my team is the best fit for her. I don't like investing all my time, effort and energy into team members who I know are not going to stay or "jump to the next." Not saying she would have but based on her patterns and what she told me, I made that decision on my own.

But pertaining to the original question, I'm not sure why people don't open themselves to new opportunities. As for me, I just don't have time and couldn't see myself doing more than one company. Maybe I need to work on my time management skills, lol. But I was told by one of my friends in the mlm world that what some people do is--- become very successful with one company, build their "downline" or whatever you want to call it, then move on to another opportunity. Because by the time that happens, you're not really needed since you would have built leaders below you. I think it was something to that context that he said but of course, I'm not at that point yet so I'm not sure.

I know that I was pitched a "system" that I can do along with my current business. I was told it would attract those who are just looking to work from home, who may not be interested in what I do. What I've usually done is referrals to my friends in mlm. And again, it goes back to I have no idea how I would balance. I personally like to keep things simple.

I think it's awesome for those who are involved with more than one company and who are successful.

I think I just went on a rant and maybe some tangents, but I do appreciate the good feedback from you all.

I don't mean jump from company to company ,thats crazy . There are free afill programs that could pay also . that you don't have to pay to join. The more money you have coming in the longer you probably will stay in that business . Some many people jump from company to company because there not making money . What ever you may think , I know people dropped out of company because there not making no money with that company .

I think brain-washed is a bad description. I think passionate is a better word. Here is a question for you, wouldn't you want passionate dedicated downline? If we say yes, then it is not our job to change people that are passionate and dedicated. It is our job to help those who are unhappy find a home
