Usually we would ask people around us what to buy and what they recommend. You wanted to buy a new car? Ask your neighbor about his one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now we can get information easily from the internet.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yet it doesn\u2019t make it easier for us. We now have to decide which website to trust and which recommendation to go along with. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s where our social network comes in. Anybody can recommend anything, but there is no certainty that we will trust him, but if you know him there is a certain degree of trust\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This fact seems kinda obvious, but think about it for a second, you often trust someone you know even more than an expert on the topic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even if your friend or relative has far less expertise on the topic than the expert you don\u2019t know.
Trust is the foundation of our human connection, a person who doesn\u2019t trust anyone won\u2019t get far in life. We always seek for people we can trust and usually these are our nearest.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Your friend, your long lost family member or your colleague from high school calls you and recommends that one course, this one product, that one system. You can trust him, right? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Surely he wouldn\u2019t recommend anything that would be useless and unprofitable for you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You see there starts the problem, because you know the person recommending you something, you feel obliged to listen. If it\u2019s nothing good for you, you could always leave at any point, right? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well it\u2019s actually way more complicated, people who have a lot of connections and a big social network usually have it because they have been friendly so far and that\u2019s a huge winning point for them.
It\u2019s even harder if the person you know is madly convinced that the product, the course or the idea they talk about is absolutely going to work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So you have now listened to your friend, and agreed to go to another meeting with some \u201cprofessionals\u201d you don\u2019t know, who can pitch you the idea better than him. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well you are already deep into it. You feel obliged to listen, you get emotionally abused to buy something you don\u2019t want and to pay for something you don\u2019t need. You get emotionally forced to believe in something because your friend or nearest did so as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well now there is really no turning back or is there? You can at least try it out, you say\u2026
You start using the product or service and realize that all the promises and declarations of getting rich through the service are false, or atleast very offshore\u2026 BUT, there seems to be one way to work yourself back and get a huge part, or even more of the sum you spend back into your pocket..
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Now there is really no going back, you have to believe in the product or all the time and money is lost. But wait, didn\u2019t this friend or mentor tell you there is another way to get the money back AND EVEN MORE?
Now you\u2019ve reached low bottom, you start calling friends and writing high school friends to join the multi level marketing scheme in order to get your money partially back. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
And guess what you have to believe in it and sound invested otherwise they won\u2019t believe you.
Oh and not to forget, better not tell them you will get a bonus if you recruit them, or they might hang up immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Absolutely right, and they did it by recruiting \u201cemotionally easy to abuse people\u201d like you. And you fueled it even more by recruiting some more and moving them higher up the pay-roll. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you are good at this, then go for it, ruin your family\u2019s, friends and neighbors life just because you wanted to make a quick buck. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Be the one who gets dodged at parties because he is \u201cthat sales guy\u201d, or the one who looses all his friends and suddenly finds himself surrounded by a social network that entirely resolves around the MLM since your friends are entirely there, they are the \u201cYes-Men\u201d of your life and everyone else is distancing themselves from yourself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Congratulations, you now speedrun the sad life of an MLM guy. A call from a friend, turned into a dream to be too good to be true (it probably is), into someone whose entire life revolves around the MLM they got pitched. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Good luck, trying to win back your \u201cold friends\u201d and family, good luck convincing the guy who spent a whole lot of money in that MLM that he failed because he didn\u2019t \u201cwork hard enough\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Good luck trying to leave your new social network, where all your new friends are in now and leaving a system that is similar to that of a religious sect. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
