Of course with the title of your website I had to visit... ...It's a nice site until I ran into the post that had one of my former downline members. Probably the only person I absolutely detest in network marketing today!

…It’s a nice site until I ran into the post that had one of my former downline members. Probably the only person I absolutely detest in network marketing today!

As, the person in question was only interested in how much money they could stuff into their pocket, at the expense of their downline.

But I also feel leaders (Network Marketing and otherwise) have a responsibility to their team as well. I believe effective leaders should reflect on their actions and what they could have done differently when they see someone not getting their desired results. (i.e. did you empower them or foster dependency? Where you honest in your recruitment process? Was the person really ready for this opportunity or did you pressure them into it?). I was absolutely clueless when I started out and really had minimal guidance (It was a new company and many of the leaders where learning as well). Most would consider my results a failure - I considered it a learning process. I met wonderful people and would not have traded it for the world. Thanks!
