ANOTHER ACADEMIC MLM EARNINGS STUDY

Another academic study of 362 recruits and 189 sponsors in a multilevel marketing organization found that the recruits sold an average of $682 worth of merchandise per month.   This survey also found that most respondents worked from 10 to 20 hours per week on their distributorship.  The average age was 25 to 34 years old, and the vast majority were married women.  It is also interesting to note that over 50% of respondents did not have any other employment, so this business opportunity represented their only source of direct income (of course, this would be in addition to any income earned by their spouse).  Thus, the amount they made would be critical in helping to pay for basic living expenses.

ACADEMIC RESEARCH ON HOURLY MLM EARNINGS = GOOD

An independent, published research paper conducted a survey of network marketing organization presidents to determine the amount of money that distributors made.   This independent survey revealed that, as might be expected, distributors earned a range of income.  An average distributor earned $12 per hour, and worked an average of 34 hours a month.  This resulted in earnings of $418 per month.  An above-average distributor earned $33 per hour, and worked an average of 76 hours a month.  This resulted in earnings of $2,523 per month.  A top distributor earned $72 an hour, and worked an average of 169 hours a month.  This resulted in earnings of $12,217 per month.  Of course, it is also possible that below-average distributors earned nothing.  Thus, distributors earned on average, anywhere between $0 per month to $12,217 per month, with an average earnings of $418 per month.  Such supplemental income is vital to pay for such basic living expenses as food, transportation costs, housing, and child care expenses.

WHY DO I THOROUGHLY DISLIKE MLM  CRITIC – BASHERS AND THEIR ACADEMIC FRAUD?


Most MLM “Critics =Bashers” (people that say MLM is no good) have never been close to a good MLM company. They take one bad experience and blow it out of proportion. Most are wage earning “tongue draggers” that have not been outside their local city limits. Why do I get mad at them? I have global experience. I have lost more money in more businesses (the majority non-MLM) than those losers ever made! I have also made more money (some of it in MLM) than they could even remotely imagine! Most MLM bashers hate successful people.  They go into a state of shock when they see “ignorant” people (by their silly standards) making money. The “critics – bashers” never figured out that people without a P.H.D. are not automatically dumb. The “critic bashers” are outraged when they see high school dropouts making $500,000 a year. Of course, many “critic – bashers” that joined MLM companies were really outraged when they found they would have to “share” or sell something.  Work – “oh my no,” they cried!  Critic -  Bashers are left wing liberals that want people to live in cradle to grave society with no risk and wash dishes their whole life. They are the “new socialists” and work hard at destroying vestiges of the last bastion of economic freedom in America and the world!  “MLM Critic – Bashers” totally ignore the “little” success stories outlined in the first paragraph.  MLM IS GOOD!  LAST CHANCE FOR THE LITTLE GUY OR GAL!

Big Critc – Bashers >>> Use “blow out of context lies” – Sixty percent of people that join MLM never make any money!  But the Big Lie is that people such as Frederick Taylor phD (I use a small p as a sign of disrespect), say that nobody makes any money. He does this by manipulating data and hiding comparative statistics for similar sales jobs (independent contractor salespersons).  Taylor doesn’t substantiate his research, which to me is academic fraud.  My sales position research comparisons are ones that any of you can do in your hometown in a heartbeat!

Examples:

1.  Real Estate Agents (independent contractor salespersons):  They spend about $1000 to go to school.  They spend $250-500 to get their license.  60% drop out without ever selling a house. Easy research here, talk to anyone in the real estate business!

2. Life Insurance Agents (independent contractor salespersons): Spend several months in on the job training, and in many states have to take an exam.  60% or more only sell one life insurance policy, and that is to themselves.

3. Mortgage Loan Officers (often independent contractor salespersons):  Three mortgage brokers that employ these loan officers told me that after months of study, on the job training and taking the test, that my 60% drop out comparison is too low.  They said 70-80%.

4. Door to door sales agents (independent contractor salespersons): A friend of mine ran a Kirby vacuum sales crew.  The drop out rate was 90% in the first two weeks after training.

5.  Car Salespersons: No obscure research here, 80-90% of new salespersons here drop out. Call your local car dealer!

My, my, in just about any direct contact sales field 60% – 70% drop out.  and golly – just about the same number of people drop out of college in their freshman year (after spending $5-10K of mom and dad’s money)!   A friend of mine sent his daughter to medical transcription school for $2500 and 3 months of her life.  She transcribed 10 tapes and quit.
