MLM or Network Marketing and some called it Networking is a business that some labeled it scam or unethical. But here in the Philippines that’s not the case. MLM or Network Marketing is gaining momentum in ordinary Filipino or Pinoys lives. More and more pinoys are opening their minds in a great possibility that this business can do to their lives. From my idea I think its more than 1 million pinoys are actively doing MLM/Network Marketing. Which is very good because they are learning priceless financial as well as personal development education which no elegant school are teaching here.
According to Robert Kiyosaki. To be able to succeed in the MLM Industry you must not look at the income but what you will learn inside the MLM Industry. Which is true, because in MLM not all people earn alot. And its very dangerous If you expect to earn BIG but you are not doing what you are supposed to do. I think the priceless thing that you will be getting inside the MLM Industry is the training and the connection of people that you will be knowing.
Some reason why Filipinos are doing MLM / Network Marketing.
1. They now know that being a GOOD EMPLOYEE is not enough to become financially free. Almost all Filipino including me are conditioned to work for some one else or in short to become a good employee. Bot its nor working in Information Age that we are now in. Its not enough to study hard and work your but off for some one else. You have to mind your own business! and MLM can make that happen.
2. MLM/Network Marketing doesn’t require large capital. The number one problem also why Filipinos are afraid of starting their own business its because some businesses require a very large capital and they don’t have it. But thanks to the MLM Industry Filipino Business Enthusiast can now start their own MLM business for as low as P500-P3,000 some MLM companies require P20,000. It really depends on the marketing plan and the products.
3. Filipinos are tired of being poor and middle class. I think this is the biggest reason why most Filipino’s are doing MLM. Although each one of us has a different WHY of doing MLM the root cause of all of that is still to overcome poverty or become financially FREE. I think Filipinos are very passionate about doing this business, that’s why there many Filipino who become MLM Millionaires.
Advantages of Filipinos in the MLM/Network Marketing industry.

3. we are motivated to do.

5. our faith in GOD is very deep and we trust him in all our ways 100%.

Nice blog! Keep on opening the minds of Filipinos for business.
You’re right about saying one should work hard upon entering the business. Nothing’s an easy money scheme – even your job requires you to work hard. The difference here is that you have no boss nor deadlines, nor an 8hour-a-day labor, nor OTs or OTYs or late. All you have to do is spend as much time as you can in doing the business, know it well and attend trainings.
I’m a Usana distributor. Good products keep the business moving.
So in choosing which MLM you’re gonna join, CHOOSE WELL.
This is a very wise and very good blog.
In this way all people not just the Filipino but in the entire International community will be aware and well have knowledge what really is a Multilevel Marketing or Network Marketing Business. No matter what kind of business industry or business network flat form you belong, either an employer, employee, student, running a small family store, and other more.. -You should and must always work hard for it to achieve your goal. Achieving goals and dreams in life is not as easy as 123.. but instead is to work hard for it.
The only thing that differ when working on a company as an employee is that you have a boss that always check for your work and time, while when you engage in MLM (Multilevel Marketing) or Network Marketing Business you are your own boss (you don’t have any boss) whatever success you achieve in these business is your own success not your boss or the owner of the company. Whatever you earn in this business is yours.
I am a distributor of Alliance in Motion Global, Inc (AIM Global Inc).
When you want to engage in Network Marketing business before you do sign-up for any, please chose wisely by verifying if it is a registered member of DSAP and MLMIA. If it is debt free and a duly tax payer company.
many claimers that their company is Number One but before believing them make sure that they are totally legal, and check these also
1.)COMPANY BACKGROUND
-maraming COMPANIES na nalulugi dahil sa ang mga may-ari mismo mga BUSINESSMAN at hindi NETWORKERS! walang alam sa pagpapatakbo o ang pasikosikot sa negosyo! kailangan check nyo rin kung ilan na pinayaman para maging kapanipaniwala ang isang companya na sasalihan
2.)PRODUCTS
-make sure na ang products ay sulit na sulit, at UNIQUE at SUBRANG EFFECTIVE compare sa iba na makikita na lng at maaavail sa MARKET!
3.)MARKETING PLAN
-kailangan icheck nyo rin kung gaano kaeffective ang kitaan at gaano kalaki ang possible na kikitain bago sumalang sa isang companya!
Early this year, I got interested in multilevel marketing, since my home-based job cannot suffice or even meet our daily spendings, including the bills. So, I began searching the internet for an MLM company. I did not find any company that suit my lifestyle till now, but, instead, I became more aware on what to look for before joining an MLM. As the Direct Selling Association of the Philippines said, an MLM company should have a legitimate product that has a real world value. One should also investigate on the marketing plan of the company. Any commission that a distributor gets should come from the sales of the products and not from recruiting. I got interested in Vmobile since I am a prepaid subscriber myself. But, upon researching on the company, I became more skeptic about how the commission is earned by a Vmobile dealer. There’s nothing wrong with getting rich, but, to achieve wealth by just recruiting people to the network the way a pyramid scheme works is a no-no to me.
The DSAP website is not even functional: http://dsap.ph/aboutus.html .Can it be an effective watchdog of the MLM industry in the Philippines
It might be in Singapore. But not here in Philippines.

nice to see that there are a lot of people who are open to mlm. We should all get involved in opening the minds of the Filipinos. Up to this time a lot of people do not understand the meaning of recruiting, in a traditional business the owner also recruits people to work for him, that is what you call leverage or multiplying yourself through others. That is not illegal. If recruiting in mlm was illegal then all of the big companies are also doing the same thing because of recruitment. Even in direct selling companies like avon also involve recruiting, there was never an avon millionaire who sold so much products by themselves, they had to create a team, and how? By recruiting! what we all should have is respect, if you think that mlm is not for you then fine. Nobody should put anyone’s source of income in a bad light. We just want to prosper financially like everybody else.
