Here are some criteria I would use to judge which MLM business opportunities will succeed in today's depressed economy, where consumers tightly clutch their dollars:
Is the company solid, well-capitalized, profitable, and led by experienced businesspeople?
Has it been in business more than five years?
Are similar products already being bought and included in most Americans' budgets?
Are the products necessary or could they be dispensed with if money gets tighter?
Are the products better than store-bought alternatives at a competitive price?
Is it fairly easy to earn commissions for recommending the products and/or opportunity to others?
I have been doing Alexa.com research to see if Web searchers are checking out various big name MLM/network marketing opportunities. Many are up 10-30%.
I'd suggest you plug in any company you are considering joining, to see how the market is responding to them. Just go to www.Alexa.com/and type in the Web site of the company you are in or are considering.

But I Love Network Marketing!
Some oldschool networkers take a quick glance at this site and think I'm down on Network Marketing. They're soooo wrong.
I just don't like the antiquated system of marketing still in use by many networkers that has produced a 97% failure rate for new distributors.
When that many people fail at something - and many of those give it a good effort - it should tell MLM companies and the top distributors that something is wrong with their marketing methods.
Well, somebody finally figured it out and wrote "The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing", telling what the problem is and how to correct it.
It's funny that oldstyle distributors are taking offense at the book's title. They probably haven't read the book so they don't know it contains the best news this industry has had for fifty years!
A lot of people could benefit from network marketing right now. They are out of work and looking for a way to pay their bills.
I want to let them know that Network Marketing can be their income solution IF they learn and use a modernized online system of Attraction Marketing instead of the old, stupid method of telling all your friends about your great new thing and inviting them to a hotel meeting or conference call.
Get Real!
Read the Book and learn how to make this business work for you.

What Is MLM 4 Freedom?
MLM, or multilevel marketing, is the most evolved form of compensating an independent sales force. It is fair to the parent company, which only pays for results - sales.
It is fair to the salesperson, who gets paid not only on their own personal sales of products, but also receives a commission on the sales of other salspeople they recruit for the company, and the salespeople THEY recruit, and so on.
If the individual is good at it, MLM can be very lucrative. You may have heard.
MLM, or network marketing, has been around for about sixty years. Like any frontier of human commerce, there have been good citizens and there have been a few outlaws among the MLM community.
Before entering into any business transaction, you need to know the history of the company, the founders, and read the fine print of the contract you sign. Do your research ( I will provide resources on this site to help you, without trying to steer you in any direction).
The major impediment to success for the many people who try MLM as a way to earn some extra income is the way that it has been presented: that anyone can make a lot of money without much training or skills and all by telling everyone they meet about their products and opportunity.
This has caused a lot of failure among those who came to this business model looking for a realistic business opportunity. They failed even though they worked hard and followed the directions of successful distributors and corporate officers.
Well, the truth is out: These successful distributors were using a whole different method of recruiting than what they told the newbies to use! And they did it right before our eyes!
The good news is that the opportunity is still there and by taking a fresh, honest look at the training and what is necessary to succeed, aided by the miracle of inexpensive communication made possible by the Internet, the promise of financial freedom is now being realized for many who have read this book:
http://PHK.the7greatliesofnetworkmarketing.com
This blog is dedicated to spreading the good news that there is still one industry in America that pays very well - and they are growing!
I call this blog MLM for Freedom for many reasons. Here are some of them:
You are free to work at home, when you develop a successful MLM business.
You are free to raise your kids yourself (not put them in daycare), when you make MLM your business.
As a successful network marketer, you are free to travel the world to build your business and have fun, mixing work with play.
This short ebook http://PHK.the7greatliesofnetworkmarketing.com will give you an idea of how the business can be run professionally and efficiently, again yielding the freedom that MLM promises.
This career is not for everyone, contrary to some of the recruiting pitches used for years by the unprincipled Top Dogs of the industry. This is not a lottery. In the real world, no one is likely to get rich without work and study of their business.
Reading this book will clear up what IS required for success in network marketing. It will clear up the common misconception that "only the people at the top make any serious money".
The sooner Americans understand the potential and the responsibilities of those who choose this profession, the sooner they can free their personal household economy from the doldrums that have ensnared our national economy.
Network Marketing is growing vigorously as we enter this new Depression
It would be a pity if capable, intelligent individuals turned up their nose at network marketing without finding out what it really is - and what is possible using the Internet to find customers and prospective business partners.
Over the next few weeks, I will bring you books and articles to back up what I'm saying here. For now, I simply want to sound the alert and let you know you're on the right track in looking at network marketing/MLM as a long term solution to our common financial plight.
There is little danger of MLM becoming overcrowded. There are no exclusive sales territories and most reputable MLM companies are set up to promote their opportunity and products internationally.
There is a revolution going on quietly in the world economy. My aim in constructing this site is to help it along - to distribute the truth about how MLM/network marketing can be the answer to the prayers of millions of people worldwide for economic freedom.
All I can say beyond this is, "Read the book. This smart lady explains what networkers have been doing wrong and how to correct that. She has made MLM work in a big way and is helping many to enjoy the ultimate freedom MLM offers."

The Revolution In MLM/Network Marketing
For all those struggling MLM-faithful who have tried - honestly tried - to make this crazy business work the way our companies and top leaders told us, there is finally an answer.
We could feel that it was uncomfortable, going around telling our friends, family, and calling strangers on the phone about our great new opportunity, but we didn't know what else to do.
Oh, we tried advertising classifieds, FFA listings, "pre-qualified leads", genealogy leads, postcards and other direct mail, but none of it got the momentum going - and, more importantly, it wasn't duplicatable by the average person we did manage to recruit.
After all, you will want someplace to go for Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners, and no one wants to become a member of the NFL (No Friends Left) club. So, somehow, networking never has produced the results the ads and our upline promised.
I never figured it out completely, though I sensed there was some advantage the top distributors had, but I couldn't put my finger on it until I read this ebook.
http://PHK.the7greatliesofnetworkmarketing.com
It's FREE and I want you to have it, because I know you want to make your business work.
I've put together all the best generic, lowcost resources for you or any network marketer to grab a piece of this exciting new teritory called Attraction Marketing.
This short ebook, The 7 Great Lies of Network Marketing, explains what we've been doing wrong all along. Most of us didn't quite connect the fact that our mega-successful upline was doing something entirely different than what they told us to do.
And THAT's why they were experiencing success - and could afford to prospect widely - and we were living with painful failure until we couldn't stand it any more and dropped out.
No Better Time To Be In MLM/Network Marketing
I do a lot of reading about what's going on in our economy. Not the fluff and official propaganda in the newspapers and on TV, but the real in-depth stuff from economists and very successful businesspeople with a twenty+ year track record of being right.
People like Robert Kiyosaki, Bill Bonner, Donald Trump, and Congressman Ron Paul, to name just a few.
What I'm finding out is that MLM/Network Marketing is the business to be in as millions of people worldwide are searching for a stable source of income to feed their families and provide for their retirement.
Masses of people in countries around the Web are looking to create a home based leveraged income that THEY control, not controlled by some impersonal mega-corporation that throws its best people overboard to save the perks of their wealthy management.
Will these people be able to find you and choose to join your network marketing business? A replicated company-provided Web site is not going to make you stand out. The search ngines ignore them completely!
Not every company will prosper if their products are over-priced in a tight money environment.
Offering a product line with real value to the consumer is more important than ever.
And only those distributors who pick up on the revolutionary new secrets exposed in this eye-opening little book will be in a position to prosper from the explosion of interest in MLM/network marketing as THE homebased business to have.
Check it out and see if you agree. I'll be posting more value-priced or free resources here in the near future.
