What does a great MLM Program have?

Judging on my experience with previous MLM programs, and my success with the current one I am involved with- I noticed that there were some key factors that the previous programs had lacked. So what features do the now succesful MLM programs possess?

What makes a great MLM program?

Here are a few factors in my opinion:

1. The cost to maintain your membership should be very low. In MLM programs where you have to spend large amounts on groceries and other consumable items, you end up getting discouraged very quickly. Even if there is a profit potential, large expenses can have people running out the door screaming "I should have listened to my folks." Besides, why should a program incur large costs on people who don't have a lot of money to begin with? They already enough to worry about as is: i.e. debt collectors, high gas costs, outrageous insurance premiums, jobs. So we clearly see the need for a low cost option, still ok if it is monthly, so people don't feel like they have a lot to lose and are not pressured by a dead line (succeed quickly or you'll be out a lot of money).

2. Although this is almost nonexistent, a program should offer a free trial with a respectable amount of time to try the product/service. This testifies to the fact that the company has great faith in itself and the product/service. They are also more likely to be interested in your success since they won't get paid if you don't succeed.

3. The company should have respectable if not admirable statistics that describe it as both financially successful and experienced.

4. The product should most definitely sell itself and a clear cut marketing system should be in place so members aren't scratching heads wondering how to advertise the blasted business. More specifically, ad copy should be provided to it's members along with instructions on where to advertise. So, in effect, where and how to ADVERTISE are also very important questions that need to be answered.

5. Free and quality mentoring should be readily available to all members.

If you're wondering how to find such a program, I'm sorry to say that I am not allowed to advertise and so I can't tell you. However, since you are all highly intellegent human beings, you all know how can find out. :lol:
