I see a lot of posts from people who lost money in MLM, so I want to share the other side. I have been with my company for 4 years. First year: lost about $1,500 (autoship cost more than commissions). Second year: broke even. Third year: started earning about $1,000/month consistently. Fourth year (now): averaging $3,500/month. BUT here is what I do not see top earners admitting: I work 25-30 hours per week on this business. I spend about $200/month on products, tools, and samples. I went through periods of wanting to quit. My success is not typical - most people on my team make $0-200/month. I am in the top 3% of my company. Is it worth it? For me, yes. But I would never tell someone they will get rich quick.
To everyone who lost money in MLM - it is okay. You are not a failure. You took a risk and it did not work out. That makes you braver than all the people who criticize from the sidelines. Dust yourself off and apply what you learned to your next venture.

The comparison between MLM failure rates and traditional business failure rates is misleading. When a traditional business fails, the owner usually has assets, inventory, and equipment they can sell. When an MLM distributor fails, they have nothing but overpriced products in their garage.
