About Network Marketing- A true disaster

After i've heard these two words-Network Marketing- a lot within a very short period of time, and i also have noticed that they became massively trending, then i started to search and know, what's that thing called network marketing, and here're the findings:

The official,visible and declared definition of it is: It's a method of marketing that utilizes independent representatives to reach potential customers that a company otherwise won't with traditional online or offline marketing methods. ( www.network-marketing-works.com)

In other words, a company that depends mainly for widely marketing its products on an unofficial channels "Independent referrals" this the name they're calling their people with through which you are buying a certain product with a certain amount of $ and by this you went into business and as much as people you get to do the same process you'll be commissioned. 

I won't go that deep into details as you may my dear reader google it, but i made an insightful thinking into that process, and for the sake of what we've leaned at the school of business, i'll make my insights as much as i can integrating:

1) I won't mention any details related to its religious validity, because i've no clue about how diversified is my readers' religions and races, "P.S. It has an islamic religious problems"-you may e-mail Dar el efta (webmaster@dar-alifta.org).

2) When you're looking it from an economic point of view, you'll find that you're sending your country's monies to abroad not in the form of mutually beneficial way but in a killing way, as if you've made a comparison between the cash-ins and cash-outs of any network marketing company you'll find that the difference is 9 TIMES, if you get as a commission in a year for example $100,000, they'll get 900,000 or $1 m, one of the basic economic rules for any transaction to be done between two parties is to establish a mutual benefit in terms of its value, and this was violated. 

3) Again with the economic point of view, if you looked at the cash-ins and outs, you'll figure out that they're not dodumented, no formal documents for them, so you cannot figure out how safe this job is, "If you considered it as a job".

4) moving to a cultural point of view, a big research about Arab youth and the result was typically in the favor of what business, Arab youth aren't interested in exerting a lot of efforts for their jobs but rather making fortunes from nothing and living in a luxurious style without paying off the price, and that kind of business is satisfying all of that, you'll be paid a lot of commissions with no physical or mental effort just raping and abusing your social networks. 

5) Again with the cultural point of view, for that business we've 6,000 active particpants in the most reputable network marketing company in the world "Qnet", what the value you're giving to those youth.... nothing, what the value those youth are giving back to their country.... no thing, JUST MAKING MONEY, and especially in this period of time, your country needs you, indeed it's in a great need for your efforts and you leave it for the sake of cash, that's  SHAME. 

6) One more economic insight, as we've studied in the college, businesses are done in one of three forms either B2C ( Business to consumer), B2B ( Business to business ) C2C ( Consumer to consumer), and as they're established companies then we excluded the last form, regarding the other two forms, those companies  will never word business to business, they're working business to consumer, simply because they're targeting individuals-idiot individuals- based on that thing called referrals, For instance, those companies won't  deal with the Egyptian government in a wide national project to employ youth in but rather social connections.

7) Abusing your social networks: Instead of meeting your friends, families and social networks for fun, entertainment and knowing each other news, you're meeting them for the sake of making money, in other words they're no longer friends they're a source of CASH.

8)Another cultural dimension that was taken care of by that business leaders is, if you want to penetrate Arab and Islamic world, you do not have to provide them with an american or European models because simply they won't be convinced and most probably they'll take it as an application of "Conspiracy theory", but rather what you've to do is to attach this and associate it to a well know industrial Islamic country, then choices were conditioned between Turkey and Malaysia, choice was Malaysia with hidden American administration. 

At the end, those were my insights about that disaster, hope it inspires you as i promised before.
