So if the product is bad, they will always come back to complain.
Friendship sours, when it comes to money. Which is why some people
say do business cannot do with friends. But nothing is morally
wrong.
This issue actually leads to the primary problem that MLMs have
been trying very hard to shake off.
Bad image and reputation.
That comes from the close association from pyramid selling. And
image is very hard to create. It takes many years to create an
image or brand, it takes many years to erase a bad image too.
Other things also contributed to its reputation. For an industry to
have such a reputation, you can't say that it's built
overnight.
yup i agree on what you said.... the moral part i was talking
abt is selling ur item... if the item is genuninely good and
beneficial, then of coz both parties will benefit.... but some sell
for the sake of selling.... they are the black sheeps....
i seen a "fren" of me who has no frens now... heard he got a car
thru selling magnetic items (bed etc) but doesnt have a licence yet
and the worst is no frens....
actually i think for MLM, when u approach ur frens and relatives,
they will buy juz becoz of giving u face... whether they will come
back or not will depend on ur product itself....
sometimes ppl rather trust a rumour from someone than actual facts
from the source...
thats society i guess
