Many people get stumbled when they are asked this horrible question - Is this a pyramid scheme or - Is this one of those pyramid selling structures? When someone asks you this question, you must not fumble or stutter. In fact, you must be very happy that they ask you this question because it shows genuine interest on the part of the prospect. A passionate, negative prospect is batter than a lukewarm person. A passionate, negative person can be turned into a passionate positive person who will go all out for your team, but only if you handle the pyramid situation intelligently. Firstly, a pyramid scheme is very often confused with network marketing or MLM. People feel that the guy who starts FIRST is often the one who makes all the money while the downlines do all the work. Others would associate the MLM company as being illegal. You see, MLM generally pays over a multi-tier compensation structure and you can earn money up to many levels deep. However, it doesn't mean that the person on top will generally earn more money than the downline. In the example of Amway for instance. You will need to build up 6 teams if you want to go Diamond. But if you want to go Double Diamond, you will need to personally build up 9-12 teams (as an example). So if you only build 6 teams and your DOWNLINE builds 9-12 teams, does it make sense that your downline should earn more money than you? Sure your downline is part of your team and he is helping to expand your group, but since he is putting in more hard work in personally building a team, it's obvious that the downline Double Diamond earns DOUBLE of what you should make even though you are on top! Next, if you consider network marketing to be a business about helping people, you can't just sponsor wide without making any attemp to help any of them succeed. This way, you are no longer building a network. Instead, you are simply creating a recruiting job for yourself! And if they don't succeed, you can bet that you will be sponsoring people over and over again for the next few years. Most compensation plans are structured to pay you well only when your downlines succeed. This is motivation for you to help your downline members. So in order to handle the objection, consider that network marketing is a LEGAL network building business that MOVES PRODUCTS through many levels and the one who works the hardest will get paid the most. This is contrary to a corporate pyramid where the CEO who might not necessarily work the hardest compared to the clerk, gets paid the most nevertheless.
