Questions About MLM/Networking

[dr. d]

... listening to this radio program now.. pyramiding, etc., ang topic..
"if the company or dealer is more into recruiting members and less into actually selling the product, be very wary..."
i prefer to buy products from actual stores.
but that's just me.

Agree. I'm using the product (cholesterol stuff, liver and colon cleansers, probiotics, etc). I know it isn't for everyone. Nor is networking. Heck i am a super skeptic as well. So yeah I'm pleasantly surprised as to how this turned out. Hoping for good things. Health is a big benefit. Time from more health and some extra income is another. But will work on it. Effort=results ^ n (where n is the network effect). In my traditional job, effort = result. I don't own a business so this gives me the opportunity to have that multiplier effect. I guess that's just for me. I do understand why others are not attracted to networking. That's cool as well.

i didn't know it was networking. the only networking we knew of back then, was the broadcasting network...TV, radio... haha.
from what i understood, the dealer prefered to sell thru tupperware parties. it was not available in physical stores. and it was expensive.
but the product did have a distinct advantage.. even as i was still a kid then, the high quality of the product was very obvious, even to me. very durable.. unlike the "obviously poor quality equivalent products" sold in physical stores..
we still come across some tupperwares in our bodegas and bauls at home... even after 40 years of retirement, they still are serviceable..

Really? Tupperware was expensive? I thought it was cheap because it was plastic and every household had it. We still have 30+ yr old tupperware at home. It's where we store our sugar stock.

Branded eh

As for the MLM which has food supplements as their products. I don't think anyone can say it's effective or working since I don't think members has been using for products long term.

it became "cheaper" much later.
but it was at least twice the price of the equivalent cheaper product, when it was first introduced in the 60s. maganda't matibay...!
in those times, maraming schoolchildren ang nag-babaon ng lunch nila, dahil mahaba ang pila sa canteen, at medyo hindi masarap ang ulam doon.. parents prefered to cook their childrens' meals.. it was status symbol if your lunchbox set was a tupperware.

something about patented technology, i believe.. the competition couldn't... until the patent expired years later.. then the market was flooded...! that's probably what you experienced.. the lapse of the patent era.

I'll ask my Mom nga from what era our tupperware was :bwahaha: wow I didn't know Tupperware was used by students for baon.
