Just find 5 serious people...

This is a bit of a cliche in MLM - Just find 5 serious people....

However, it is true!

The principle of MLM is often demonstrated by 'drawing the circles':

You start with a circle representing you.

Draw 5 circles below, each connected by a line to you. Then draw 5 circles below each of those circles and so on.

On level 1 you have 5, on Level 2 25, on level 3 there will be 125 and on level 4 625 - that's 781 people including yourself.

Take it a couple more levels and it becomes 3906, 19531 - You're rich!

Does it work like this in practice? Well, yes and no.

No, it certainly won't be true that the first 5 people you introduce will each introduce 5 who introduce 5.

But what is true is that if you keep introducing people, some of those people will be as serious as you. Those serious people will then begin introducing people and some of those will be serious.

And in this way, if you ignore the non-serious people and remember that the circles represent the serious people then, yes, it works just the way the circles show.

To your success.
