You are aware, I hope, that Multi-Level Marketing (also called Natwork Marketing) is taught at the Harvard Business School as a standard focus of their Business and Marketing degrees, as an example of a sustainable business model which is being adopted more and more around the world as the future in effective marketing?
It's ok. Every concept goes through the three stages of existence. First you have the outright denial that it will ever succeed. Second comes the grudging acceptance that it works, before the final step of admission that it has become a self-evident truth. For different people, UW and MLM in general is still firmly ensconced in step one. For the more enlightened among us, it's already in step three. But it will get to step three for the general population soon, son't you worry.

Do you have any evidence that Havard actually teach MLM as a sustainable business method ?0

Nobody disputes that MLM works, and can be a money maker. However it depends on there being enough gullible victims.
The objection to UW is that gas and electricity are marketed on the false premise that they are cheaper than other company's products when the very opposite is true. - That fact can be verified by any comparison website.
Even more objectionable is that UW salesmen are encouraged to sell expensive products to family and friends.0 -
Yeay! Cardew's awake again!
Did I mention that my bill for electricity, landline, broadband and mobile phone was £32.53 this month! For ALL 4 services combined!!! UNBEATABLE value!
I'm sure your next response will be to find something cheaper than that. What? No? You can't? I see.....hmmm.......

The real message comes in the other paragraph of that particular post that I made, which you conveniently chose to ignore.I am an Independent Financial AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as an Independent Financial Adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

Of course it's a myth. Obvious red herring at the start of my post. In case you hadn't picked up in it, I'm in a tricksy mood at the moment!

When caught out posting a blatant lie you conveniently say you knew it was a lie all the time and that you were just in a tricky mood.Very unprofessional indeed.0
