Network Marketing is getting screwed by everyone who writes an article or posts something negative about the industry or a company. Freedom of speech gives people the right to voice their own views but in doing so people’s outlooks are being manipulated. Well, neither you nor I can stop someone from giving an opinion but we can "change the channel", so to speak.

Its easy to go online and find all sorts of articles and press releases by individuals, usually not involved in the industry, bashing either a company or network marketing. I am only 32 years old but it has been my experience that people who usually talk down on someone or something in great detail are always negative. You are never going to please them. I am sure that we could fill at last two pages of ruled paper with their gripes. Its too hot, the dog barks too loud, the cat is too fluffy, the kids are playing too loudly, etc.

And what about the individuals who take these king griper’s information as solid advice saying, "thanks for stopping me from making a big mistake". Please, they probably weren’t going to join anyway.

I am not promoting that network marketing and some companies do not have their flaws because its not true. It would be naïve of me to feel this way but feedback from unaccredited sources should not be cultured and made into a "niche" product. The government has several systems set in place to continuously and thoroughly test the validity of the industry and companies. I would even venture to say that it is the nature of the screening agencies to play the devil’s advocate just to ensure that companies follow strict procedures.

This means, we do not need any extra input from the peanut gallery.

The king gripers say that, in network marketing, only the few at the top make money. This is true but those at top had to come from somewhere. I am sure they are not there without any struggle, either presently or earlier in their journey. I am sure they did not get there without shedding a few tears. But one truthful fact is that if one person can make it, lots of others can.

Look at a heavily populated business street in your city. Out of the 50 or 100 brick and mortars I am willing to bet that less than one third are making any real money. And those who are at the top, like anyone else, had to work to get there. Its not easy for the average person to be successful in any business endeavor but should that should stop him from trying. Look at what you become in the process of striving forward. Money is the minor value.

Its disheartening to see people basically crush others hopes and dreams because they are scared to dream big.

What better way for a person to develop than by associating with network marketing individuals who want to live well and build a positive atmosphere around themselves.

Be wise. Do not risk loosing all of your positive energy on these gripers. Do not reply to any of there articles, comments, or post. It amazes me to see how people will fill up a "hate" article with hundreds of replies but will not make one comment on someone’s post about their company or the industry. Spend your time around and in places that will provide valuable business building information.

Tim Sales loves the industry as does Todd Falcone. Mike Dillard’s magnetic sponsoring is a nice place to network. Support these and many other individuals who respect the industry. Comment on their post not the idiots who talk down on your life changing opportunity.
