Ten ways to ruin your MLM business!

by Laura Hand on July 3, 2009

Have you ever dreamed of failing miserably in multi-level marketing? Well, you’re in luck! Here are 10 simple ways to fail and fail big time in your home based business.

#1. Quit too soon

If you’re really serious about failing in MLM, the best thing to do is to try it for a week or two and then just give up. You’d be shocked at how many people join a business and get all excited only to get down and give up after hardly any time at all. If you’re going to start a home based business, you have to give it some time. There is no such thing as a real way to get rich quick.

#2. Listen to negative people

When you join a home based business, there are bound to be a lot of negative people telling you that you are going to fail. Ignore them and you’ll have a ton of success. Listen to them and they’ll probably be right.

#3. Don’t follow the system

Almost all home based businesses have a system for success. If you want to fail, just don’t follow the system. Do your own thing, re-invent the wheel. After all, you know more than all the people making 5 or 6 figures, right? Don’t follow the system and you’ll be sure to fail!

#4. Be a secret agent

Whatever you do if you want to fail in MLM, just don’t tell anyone about it! Keep it a secret. In fact, you should probably be really embarrassed of your home based business. Telling your friends and family might mean that some of them could want to sign up and you don’t want the hassle of that… just keep it a secret.

#5. Be cocky

You know better than the people who brought you into your home based business opportunity, right? As a matter of fact, you probably know more than almost anyone else in the company. Humility is for the weak. Be cocky and your failure is guaranteed!

#6. Be bitter about other people’s success

What is the use in being happy when other people around you find success? Everyone knows you have to be bitter and jealous of other people’s accomplishments, right? Don’t waste your time being happy and supportive of people.

#7. Don’t grow

You are fine just the way you are. Reading books or working on yourself, in any way, is just plain silly. Don’t grow as a person and definitely don’t add to your skill set. Stay just as you are and don’t grow… a perfect way to fail.

#8. Ignore your team

You don’t have time to help other people, after all! You’re too busy worrying about yourself. Bring people into the business and then just ignore them.

#9. Have zero confidence

Whatever you do… don’t believe in yourself!

#10. Just don’t get started

Hands down the best way to fail in MLM is to never get started at all. If you’re nervous you might succeed and want to be sure to avoid it DO NOT, under any circumstances, join a business. I mean you might just succeed by mistake!
