Multi Level Marketing -MLM

Assalamualaikum.. Hi all..
As you all know, multi-level marketing is one of the marketing strategies available out there. It is clearly popular among you since so many of you are involve in this method of marketing. Some of you even got screwed over.
You have to understand that multi-level marketing involves selling products no matter what they say to you, there are still products to be sold. For example, CNI is known for its medicinal products, Hi-O known for its "Beautiful" and water filter, another one MLM company Avon for its cosmetics and accessories. These companies have been around for a while and they are ESTABLISHED. But, what I'm trying to say here is, don't be fooled by the gimmic saying that you don't have to sell stuff, you do... you know why?
Firstly :
You have to pay at least RM2000 to join the company
Secondly:
You have to find at least 2 "underline" to expand you market
Thirdly:
You have to maintain at least RM250 per month in order to get bonus, which most of the time is either coupons, 10% discounts, entitled in the running for a vacation and etc.
Questions you have to ask yourself before getting involve in any of these companies:
1. What do I know about personal selling?
2. Do I have the money to maintain minimum sales every month in order to get the BONUS?
3. Am I confident enough to approach others to join this business?
4. Once they join this business, am I certain that he/she will achieve what he/she wants?
5. Won't I drag my underline into trouble if I ask them into this business?
6. Will I be able to help my underline achieve their sales target?
7. Does he/she has the money to maintain minimum sales every month and if he/she ask to borrow money from me, will I be able to help him/her?
8. Am I positioned at the position the company promised me?
9. How much time do I have to put in to be a millionnaire?
10. Am I being realistic?
PLEASE BE REALISTIC! I'm writing from experience. I joined Clearmont Sdn Bhd when I was studying and I invested RM3500. The RM3500 was by scholarship money, which I never see again. I got make-up sets and tea and skin care product which each item worth the minimum of RM200!!! (Remember; be realistic). Afterwards, I coughed RM500 to join its motivational course which not at all different from the normal everyday seminar!!!
I'm so into it because they programed us to believe that make-up products are tainted with poisons and toxic. I believed them until I run out of money to pay for transportation fee to and from the meeting place, telephone bill, new wardrobe to look "professional", most of all, FRIENDS STEER AWAY FROM ME. When this happened, all they said to me was, "you have to face the risk in order to excel"... BUT, WHY NONE OF THEM WARN ME OF THE RISKS BEFORE I PUT RM3500 IN THE BUSINESS?????
I started working with RM0.00 and I have to borrow money from my parents. So shameful... :(
I'm sure you don't want this to happen. If you want to join this kind of marketing, please be aware of their promises. You can even come to me for advise. Please... you have to be wise ...

Another Meeting in KL

Hi all...

FYI, my students are soing to start classes early August, so I am free until then. I'm going to fill my time writing some modules and hopefully update this blog everyday. Love writing...

I'm actually on holiday, but work still come to me. Yesterday night, the consultant for e-learning sent me a storyboard for the e-learning project, so I guess I have to go through it by this week. At 7.50 this evening, a colleague called and remind me that there's another meeting that I have to attend in KL next week on 24 & 25 June. As I talk to her, she told me that I worked so fast that everybody else hasn't achieve the story board stage yet... Wow! I work fast? Alhamdulillah... ;o)

By the way, as I'm on holiday, I'm free from Teamo Supremo.. he he he... Hey.. if you any stories about your office, do share ;o)

Cancelled???? What????

Hi all.. I went o KL two days ago for the validation meeting. Pre-counsel meeting we anticipated and discussed questions that might be asked yesterday. We prepared, I prepared, I went through the stuff, memorized some facts... I even slept on it... Fortunately.. soundly.. ha ha ha...

So, yesterday, we went to Putrajaya and as we got up to the sixth 11th floor, they told us that it was cancelled... What???? But it is rescheduled to Thursday.. tomorrow... Ok... The comittee have some other important matter to attend to... alrighty then... hmmm

But, we didn't come home in vain... the officer there gave away all their inquiries... and people in KL said that I don't have to be there... YYYYaaahhhhhoooooo!!!!...

Now I'm home enjoying my holidays... I applied for a week holiday but I have to cut it into three days because of this meeting. No matter...

All I'm trying to say here is... procrastination trickles down from the top, so, I can't really put the blame to my immediate bosses... ;o) How to change aaa????
