Top Ten Best Examples of MLM Hype

Anyone involved in MLM has seen some “stretching of the truth” when it comes to promoting MLM business opportunities.
While most network marketers are professional in their approach, there are always a few making claims and promises that are misleading and out of bounds.
Some of these claims are really funny and downright silly when you think about it. The shame is, they make our industry (and our legitimate opportunities) look bad.
Please feel free to comment and suggest your own additions to this list.

1. Don’t delay….get in now before your downline does!
   The classic tactic – fear of loss – used to the max. Gosh, makes you want to jump right in so you can sponsor your existing downline into this hot new deal, doesn’t it…
   
   
2. You will be just three levels down from a heavy hitter…
   Ummm….so what is he going to do for me? Is he good enough that I don’t have to do any work? I can just collect a check every month? What a deal…
3. The absolute hottest new program of the year…
   Well now that is nice to know…so what does this become when the next great “wonder-tunity” comes along? Chopped liver?
   
   
4. Join now, before it is too late…
   Yes, do it right now, because the doors are shutting at midnight…
   we won’t take any more recruits after that…promise…
5. Pre-launch, ground floor, get in now…
   Don’t hesitate a minute…this opportunity will really stink after the
   launch is complete…
6. No products, no selling…
   No selling, no products = no money…all home businesses sell something to someone, period…
7. Drop what you’re doing and call now for top placement…
   Rush to get in on top of this deal…when it fizzles we’ll be on the next hot one and we’ll give you ADVANCE NOTICE so you can get on top again…
8. Once in a lifetime opportunity, don’t miss out…
   Darn, I let this one get by me….but I just found another “once in a
   lifetime opportunity”. I must be a cat – nine lives?
9. Joe Heavy Hitter made $6000 his first month, you can too…
   They forgot to tell me that Joe came over from another opportunity and brought an existing downline of 500 people…
10. We will build your downline for you…
    This one is my favorite. Please do build my downline for me. Do I then build the downline for the people you put under me, or do I sit and do nothing and make money, or just what do I do…
