Check Incentive Plan with 8 Different Ways to Make Money Online

The Business Dictionary says evolution is a slow process of change from one form or level to a better or higher one that brings into being a superior or new order … face maturity with renewal or decline.

And so the dynamic internet growth has created forces to adapt to a rising Connection Economy and Consumer Era at a grand scale with implications for business structure and success.

In fact, one pre-launch marketing platform has met the greatest challenge of E-Commerce Fair Play.

And the big questions now for MLM and direct sales companies is how to stay ahead of competition, adapt to changing customer needs and preferences and enable their distributors.

MLM Companies Must Face Social Commerce

In good faith, many MLM companies are stepping up to meet the incoming demands of online marketing trends with better software and ecommerce platforms that provide turnkey ways to operate with integrated shopping carts, streamlined checkouts and sponsored loyalty programs with increased customer relationship management (CRM).

However, from the beginning, MLM has a sad legacy as a rather awkward modular structure for many people looking for some financial independence touted on such high hopes and hype producing far less outcomes while mostly spending far more money than earnings.

Strangely, the statistics have been knowingly tolerated that less than 3% of networkers with large fields of influence have became the top leaders with celebrated 7 figure incomes while the majority struggled to make any income trying to maintain expensive auto shipments.

For years, the vast underperforming networkers stayed silent in their rooms or garages overloaded with products because nobody wanted to declare their failures. Many dreamers would persist for a year and drop out only besmirching the reputation as a scam.

Interestingly, this downside has recently appeared as an Anti-MLM discussion on social media by several vulnerable women who began to publicize the inherent struggles of many distributors

Can you relate to some of their points?

— average MLM distributor’s salary was $183 annually

— will work for you despite any differences in resources, backgrounds, skill sets or networks

— massive downlines and team bonuses benefit a few

— lack of assistance and guidance to sales conversions business

— psychological toll through lack of competence or team effort

— rank maintenance depends on replacement of customer base

— more FTC regulation on medical claims since Covid

— FTC ruling for MLM compliance to adhere to the 70% rule that goods must be purchased by non distributors. Hard to prove when real money is made through recruitment to sustain income.

Reality Changes for MLM companies

The current reality is a Customer Economy within Social Commerce where shopping habits are changing to accommodate individual preferences to buy and sell with people they like and trust.

There is more concentricity to make a more human marketplace with greater value for entrepreneurs and consumers.

MLM companies could face the reality of possible economic collapse as negative publicity and old recruitment tools to build sustainable long term teams continues to be improbable for most at the bottom of the matrix.

Inevitably, an MLM association can mean short term gains. Even at a global level, there is concern that MLM may become an obsolete homebased business option. Will distributors burn out or be cut if they can’t make sales while social media continues to hyperventilate with influencers?

Several MLM companies are reconfiguring corporate structures and beginning to transition to affiliate programs where commissions are made through product sales versus recruitments. Social media consultants can continue to receive increased commissions.

Affiliate partnerships don’t focus on team building just promotion of an actual product where incomes can be diversified by promoting many products including sales commissions from customers.

There are several reasons I would not join another network marketing company UNLESS an Affiliate Opportunity is also combined…even better at a monthly subscription of $9.95.
