Let us discuss the future of MLM. Trends I see: 1) More companies abandoning the MLM model entirely. 2) Shift toward affiliate-style compensation. 3) Increased regulatory scrutiny globally. 4) AI transforming prospecting and sales. 5) Gen Z resistance to traditional MLM tactics. 6) Rise of social commerce as competition. 7) Companies focusing more on customer acquisition vs recruitment. 8) Subscription box models replacing traditional MLM product delivery. Is network marketing evolving or dying? Where do you see the industry in 5 years?

I felt this post in my soul. The loneliness of being the only one still working while your team goes silent is crushing. But remember - you are building skills and resilience that will serve you regardless of whether you stay in MLM or move on to something else.
Your story mirrors mine almost exactly. I want you to know that it gets better. I left my MLM 2 years ago and it took about 6 months to stop feeling embarrassed. Now I can talk about it openly and even laugh about some of the ridiculous things I did. Healing takes time but it happens.
What would you say to someone who is 3 months in and has not made any money yet? At what point should they evaluate whether to continue or cut their losses?
