Multilevel marketing MLM discussion

My 2nd red chiclet! It says "The poster is disparaging without personal knowledge of the opportunity insuring that other interested parties will shy away" I disagree that I am "ensuring" that other interested parties will stay away. If you believe in your product you will need to defend it occasionally.

I offset it slightly with a green chiclet.

Thanks!

Geez :roll: another one. I'm going to need a scorecard to keep up with these things--they're multiplying like rats.

Admittedly this MLM is the most insane I've encountered. This guy writes a newletter about health and fitness and "sells" subscriptions for $12 per month through an MLM???

Seriously, you need to get out now while you still have your bank account and friendships/relationships intact.

If you need money, get a job at one of the various businesses that advertise on this message board--you'll be better off.

I have no interest in a MLM for income purposes. I am trying to find out if the chocolate tastes good.

Your films were interesting. I hate to see people get involved in this stuff but every once in a while you see something being sold this way that appears to be a pretty good product.

You don't have one in the mall in Dallas? :funn:

Here's a excerpt from a guy who did a "taste test" on his blog:

At a recent shopping expedition in Los Angeles, I got to taste Xocai (pronounced "sho-sigh") chocolate, which is being marketed more as a health food product than a sweet indulgence. Chocolate is becoming more closely associated with health because of its antioxidant components, and the addition of acai to the chocolate adds the health benefits of the acai berry, now considered to be a super fruit. According to the website, Xocai will give you increased energy, help you sleep better, decrease joint pain, reduce sugar cravings lower blood pressure and cholesterol, reduce allergies and arthritis, and improve diabetic readings.

Good good on all the health stuff, but I was interested in the taste. Each small domed brick piece of chocolate comes wrapped in gold foil, which really makes it look like candy. I love dark chocolate, and the Xocai nuggets have a very high cocoa percentage. However, I have to say that it definitely tasted medicinal, and somewhat powdery. I also didn't feel the antioxidant power of "10 pounds of spinach" that each nugget supposedly has.

Oh well. I think I'd rather eat spinach for antioxidants, and a Teuscher truffle for chocolate.
-------------------------------------------------------

cool: Sounds about right to me.)

mlm's are funny.

I'm still waiting for the review of the "taste testing" done locally.

Those with the money to buy this over-priced crap have enough sense not to waste their money...and those with no sense, who think it's a good idea, don't have the money to buy it.

And if you're looking for multi-tasking chocolate --



Go here, and you can find chocolate/fig/port deliciousness -- and it's eco-friendly.

I think that even if it didn't change the flavor, knowing my chocolate was full of vegetables would make me like it less! ;-)

MLMs are like miniature Sam's Clubs, but they focus more on selling memberships than products. Imagine a big box store like Sam's Club, being filled with three or four products, but hundred's of employees getting paid to sign people up to join. Once you pay the fee, you get to join the other employees in selling memberships to join the club. ("Oh, yeah, BTW, there is some chocolate in the back of the building, which you can buy, and the store will even give you a token commission if you can sell some, but the real money is up front, here, signing up new members. Isn't this great?")

OOOH I got into this way too late... lotta juice here!

Check out these resources, I think they are the beat on the net.
www.mlm-thetruth.com and www.pyramidschemealert.org

Some great info here I especially like the comparison Dr. Jon Tayor makes with the payoff comparison of an investment in mlm and an investment in the worst of the casio games; roulette, you'll do better at roulette.

There is a lot of good solid analytics on these sites and ratings for mlms by the numbers. There are plenty of reports and pdf's to download. He's been involved in trials where mlms have been charged with criminal offences.

Like one needs to read a website to understand the value , or should I say costs, of MLMs. lol
