I believe in MLM, particularly as a solid sales network - as long as those who enter it do so after having made a solid business decision rather than an emotional one based on pitches to become a member.
One of the things that bugs me about the Network 21 is that although my hubby has been approached, been to the introduction evenings (yes, plural), been given 'info' on the products, and gone through their materials - I still haven't managed to find someone in my area that is
just willing to sell me the products that I want!
I don't want any sales speeches, invites to attend any get togethers to get to 'know more about our products' or 'to learn more about the best business opportunity on the planet'. I just want to know how much the washing powder is going to cost, how long it will be for my order to be delivered, and someone who can answer my specific questions without giving me the business equivalent of a religious revival meeting sermon... (And don't try to sell me their toothpaste, especially when I have already said "no".)
I also don't have the inclination, time or contact network in my area to become a member, so don't even ask me (let alone pester me).
A few months ago I asked again for a catalogue or at least just a price list. I was sent a humumgous (many MB sized) file - still without any prices or order form!
Why must I have to run around just to get the basics of service when I can go down to my local supermarket and buy similar products (and, yes, I know some of their products are great, which is why I was interested in the first place) at SA, rather than US, prices.
The end result: Still no purchase to date!
