MLM is a difficult concept to sell. It is structured to allow you as an individual to build a sales organization under you allowing yourself to get a percentage of any profits from your downline. This is great but most of the companies have products that need to be sold and quite honestly people don’t want to bothered wit us trying to sell to them so try our luck at it, become discouraged and give it up.
Then we go the company way and use deceptive adds in an attempt to build a downline. You have to pay for all the advertising. majority of the people responding usually say no. In the interim some of these companies have you locked into buying a monthly allotment of product witch you are told will actually be free once all those profits come in. So you are looking at an average monthly expense of $50 to $60 pus a possible fee for the uselss cookie cutter web site.
People quit because they do get discouraged, They realize it was not a good deal. They ae going broke with all the associated expenses and not making a dime. The products pricing is always inflated to pay all the mlm commissions and company profits. Those products are highly glorified with media hype copy.
Youre negativity may be a blessing. Chances are you saw through the smoke screen they set up, saved your self a lot time, aggrivation and money. Lets not forget that eventually you end up trying to sell to family and friends which creates a very anti social status.
I found a fantastic product on the net that was mlm marketed. it had all the negatives about the marketing but the company has continually grown and expanded into many countries. The product works and I still use it. I don’t sell it but have learned that there is a targeted market for everything. Find the market and you have a successful business
I have only seen one excuse…
The experience didn’t live up to their expectations.
Bottom line. Because if their expectations were met, they wouldn’t feel the need to quit. That is why it is so important when a new distributor get’s started, to find out what their expectations are… with you, the sponsor, the team, the up line, the company, the income, the products, what they want to earn, when, how fast, why… ask all the questions to get a clear understanding on what they expect from joining the company, and your team.
Then it is your responsibility to communicate with them if their expectations are too high… and that is where MOST sponsors fail. They try to spin the glory life, the big dream, they work to motivate with unrealistic goals… the new distributors gets so excited… but guess what happens? The experiences falls short, they get disappointed because the experience didn’t live up to what they thought, and they start looking for reasons to blame or to quit.
When I started teaching this, my new distributors stuck around longer because we both were up front and honest… disappointments were less, and as a result, my business is going great.
Where did you conjure up the 99.999% number? Do you have any facts to back that up? Not.
Those that do quit, usually just realize that sales are not for them. They are unable to handle getting out there and finding customers, just like any other salesman has to do.
You slay me with your trash talk…..you just don’t have a clue and everyone knows it.
First of all, 99.999% is not true. but i think yoiu are close. anyway, people quit because most of those quitter thought MLM is a cash-cow. it is not, MLM work slowly, one must give time to develop the business. most of those have npo idea how business work. MLM is a serious business.
Comments on When an mlm person eventually quits mlm, what is their most common excuse? »
because they get kicked out
I think it is lack of interest.

I think most quit because when they first get in they do not realize how much of their time and yes even money to build a substancial and stable mlm.
