5.0 out of 5 stars Finally, a corperate focused MLM development text, March 15, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Building a Successful Network Marketing Company: The Systems, the Products, and the Know-How You Need to Launch or Enhance a Successful MLM Company (Hardcover)

"Finally! A credible and definitive guide to the inner workings of network marketing that demystifies the whats, whys and hows of the corporate side of the industry. Angela Moores Building a Successful Network Marketing Company effectively lays out the crucial concepts, components and systems that separate the here-today-gone-tomorrow schemes from the long term successful network marketing companies. The approach is professional, the content rich and it provides an invaluable resource to start-up and mature direct selling businesses and executives. This book is a must to put the form and function of network marketing management into perspective. It is at the head of my client "required reading" list.

A number of books have been written by networkers and industry executives that address the subject from varying perspectives and degrees of experience. Each of them add their contribution to the literature base, but none gives a more complete treatment and clear picture of what it takes to establish and operate a successful MLM business. This book can save readers immeasurable time and expense. The thoughtful reader will find the breadth of content makes this a vital resource reference book for every department and executive/staff member of their business.

Ms. Moore writes from a wealth of personal experience, yet judicially accesses the experts in those areas where here experience can be strengthened by collaboration. Her access to the industrys top advisors and executive professionals further speaks of the breadth of her experience and understanding of the operational elements of the business.

While the treatment is focused on the corporate side of the industry, direct selling distributors and network marketing leaders will find the information enlightening and will be better able to form the field to company partnerships that supercharge their own and the corporations success and longevity. Field leaders will do well to study the text to better understand the critical support service dimension of the business to better create the synergy of field and corporate relationships.

Thanks Angela. Building a Successful Network Marketing Company will undoubtedly help many companies do just that."

5.0 out of 5 stars Great MLM Business Book..., September 8, 2002

By

(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Building a Successful Network Marketing Company: The Systems, the Products, and the Know-How You Need to Launch or Enhance a Successful MLM Company (Hardcover)

This is probably the best book I have read on the multilevel marketing industry to date. Although small in size, it is absolutely packed with valuable information.

Despite the title's name, this book is valuable to everyone who is involved in MLM, not just those contemplating starting their own MLM company. Its straightforward writing style and well researched text are a refreshing change from the many mindless motivational books available in the MLM industry today.

Although the book is pro-MLM in general, it does not gloss over any aspects of the industry, or try to sell it as a get-rich-quick panacea. It mainly seems to be aimed at businesspeople new to the industry, who are trying to understand it for the very first time. It's not written for "MLM junkies", but for professionals who actually want to learn the real ins and outs of the business. An informative background of MLM's history is included, as is a look at what differentiates MLM's from traditional business models.

Probably the most fascinating aspect of the book is the insider's view it gives on how MLM's are formed. It lays-out the requirements for an MLM to be successful, as well as explain the elements that all (successful) MLMs have in common. It practically gives you a blueprint of how all MLM's are formed, and how they are successfully run. This isn't the type of information you will find in typical MLM books.

Other valuable parts of the book include a look at the legalities of MLM, most common mistakes made by MLMs, structuring the sales organization, compensation plans, product selection and more.

If you buy only one book on multilevel marketing, this should be it. It is well written, well researched and contains a treasure trove of valuable information.
