I have been working online since 1999 trying to build a business that will pay me residual income.
So far, the only ones getting paid are the owners. With most MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) ompanies YOU are the customer and the products we buy on "auto-ship" every month guarantees THEIR residual income not ours.
We are told we only need 2 to 5 people in order to start earning. The problem is, if we manage to get anyone to agree to an "auto-ship" anywhere from $50 to $150 or more a month, whey they can't get anyone, they drop out.
Meanwhile, we are still paying and paying and paying. Goting to Conference Calls where the "so-called stars" of the program are making "thousands of dollars" in residual income every month, and assure us that if we stick with it, we will be as successful as they are. Just call more people, hand out more business cards, mail more postcards, all of which is only costing us even more money.
So far I've tried only 2 of these companies and I was either not able to get anyone, or not enought, or the members I did get dropped out. Because if they need the money for a family emergency, this will go first.
The only other programs or businesses on the Internt are "Fast Money" programs, which is basically sales commissions, not residual income...no sale no pay. There are also "Matrix Cyclers 2x2, 2x4, 2x10, 3x7 etc.", where you need from 4 to y or more people to "cycle". The problem with these is that if you do get your required number of membrs, your downline might not...so you might cycle and earn one, and then you're stuk or you never cycle at all. Meanwhile, you have paid hundreds of dollars to join, and you took a chance becaue the owners/admin of the program "promised" they would help you build your downline. Of course, there is never any time-frame given, so you wait and wait and wait.
I could go on, but you get the picture...you can lose more than just your money...you can lose your faith, hope and trust in the owners of these "programs/businesses".
Now you'll see lots of new programs with their sales pitches like these, "Tired of Being Lied to?", "Didn't Receive Support or Training?", "Lost Your Money?", well "We're Different". These are probably the same owners/admin that ripped you off before who just bought a new script and opened another program to get more of your money.
So "What's the Alternative?"
I really believe the saying "Quitter's Never Wine, and Winners Never Quit". So I kept searching to find the "One".
I've noticed a new trend on the Internet and among networders, and that is they ae forming groups, forums, and joining business and social networking companies which are popping up all the time now. These are good for us for several reasons. If we do have a bad experience or recoganize the name of an owner of a bad program, we have places to meet to get the information or to give the information. Of course we still have to do our own due diligence, as these dishonest people will also be members of these programs, but we can ask others how they are doing and hope they give us honest answers.
The "Alternative" I've found is a company that has been paying me ever since they launched in October 2007. They are an Interntional Business and Social Networking Company who also sells products and services. They are positioning themselves to be The "Link" that everyone will go to on the World Wide Web!
I have been paid hundreds of dollars and will will only steadily increase as time goes on. Send me an email, at articles2@pathway-to-success.com, or call me, 1-347-920-2579 (EST), and I will be glad to share the good news about this very reliable Alternative for your guaranteed success!
