Righteous Network Marketing: Being a Righteous Networker

You cannot be established through wickedness. 

However, the righteous cannot be uprooted. -Proverbs 12:3

The passage above is quite true with righteous network marketing, in being a righteous networker. God is the God and Author of clean network marketing and we should make sure everything is according to the right way of doing network marketing. And you cannot do this business any other way but righteously and fairly if you want true success in it.

Of course, we see a lot of crooks and scammers in the industry of network marketing today, and they seem to be successful at it. Making lots and lots of money, however, is not success in any business endeavor--that is, if you strongly believe in clean network marketing. Success in business is when you do everything God's way, accomplish His will, and please Him. That is genuine success. If you're a scammer, you please no one but the devil and you're the worse of all losers even if you have so much money, possessions, and prestige with fellow crooks. 

Yeah, other foolish networkers will look up to you and place you on a pedestal, but that's all empty.  Jesus Christ, the Originator of righteous network marketing, said something like this: So what if you gain the whole world but end up in hell doing it? You cannot be established through wickedness. God's Word said it and that's  final. No wonder I see lots of rich and "successful" scammers and deceivers in network marketing with rotten lives, rotten marriages, and rotten characters. It's a curse on them.

Wicked Network Marketing

I define wicked network marketing as doing it outside the generally accepted basic rules of fair and righteous network marketing. Some unfair and wicked practices are as follows:

1. Doing anything to upset company safety net.
2. Selling products lower than the company SRP.
3. Being an independent distributor but then asking monetary support from the company.
4. Not paying your loans or advances from the company.
5. Not supporting your immediate downlines, especially your directs.
6. Asking money support from your uplines.
7. Mass recruitment or "kamada" in Filipino.

Righteous Network Marketing

Righteous network marketing, on the other hand, is being a righteous networker. This means the right way to do network marketing. Sounds pretty obvious and self-explanatory, but believe me, it isn't in the real network marketing world out there. It's mere head knowledge to scammers but it's not in their hearts. They think network marketing is just all about money and they destroy its image, affecting others who do it with clean hearts.

1. Safety Net: Never do anything that would destroy the company's safety net. Be concerned about how the company is making profits from the business and support it. If you're the type who thinks of ways how to cheat on the safety net, you're a scammer! Think of others' welfare. If you cheat on the company and it closes shop, how about the others who have barely started with the business? Be a godly network marketer. Do everything the right way to do network marketing.

Judas was like that. All he cared for was the money he'd get. He didn't think of God or the Master or the lives of his fellow Gospel networkers.

2. Don't Sell Below SRP: Some networkers have to do lots of monthly product maintenance due to their many accounts. What scammers do is get rid of their many products by selling them below SRP. If you do this, you'd undermine product movement and soon the company will be out of business. New networkers cannot sell their products at SRP to make a little gain from it because you have upset the market selling price.

3. Be a Real Independent Distributor: You're an "independent" distributor, not an employee of the network marketing company. So do the business with your own money. Do not ask for money support or "pang galaw" from anyone--not from the company or from your upline. It's a stupid idea introduced by unscrupulous people and scammers. It defeats the purpose of network marketing, which is to raise up independent distributors who engage masterfully on the products through leveraging. Be a real businessman or woman.

Do Jollibee franchisees ask money from the Jollibee company to do the business? Of course not. You should do any business with honor. And it's stupid to claim to be a network leader and be unable to move without money support from the company. And then your downlines do the business using their own money! It's gross unfairness! It's very seldom true that leaders use the monetary support from the company to "help" their downlines.

4. Pay All Your Advances: Some leaders make product advances without payment. They pay this in installments, as the products are sold. But a lot of them do not pay back their loans. Never be like that!

5. Support Your Immediate Downlines and Directs: You cannot support all your downlines to the nth level, but you can your immediate ones. That's how networking works. Make sure to train them well. It's your responsibility as their upline, even if you're not a network 001 leader. If you don't do this, you are seen as a wicked networker. It's not the right way to do network marketing. Righteous network marketing means you focus training and helping at least your 3 or 5 to 10 directs and some of their directs. At least to the 2nd or 3rd generation, if possible.

6. Never Ask Money from Your Uplines: Remember, your uplines are independent distributors, too, doing the business with their own money. They're not obligated to support you financially. But if they decide to do so, it's pure grace. Be grateful, and make sure you use the money well to do the business. It's awkward to ask money from uplines, but if they offer it voluntarily, then why not? Just be a faithful steward of his or her money. It's part of righteous network marketing, the right way to do network marketing.

7. Mass Recruitment or Kamada: This is pure greed. Some network leaders recruit people en masse to defeat the company safety net and put it out of business. They don't care about their downlines; they just use them to get money unfairly. After they have amassed lots of money, they do another networking business, not minding the hundreds or thousands of others they brought to the first business and who haven't earned any profits yet.

Kamada is Ultra Wicked

Kamada is wicked [it's hell's way to success, the broad and easy path to destruction] and it's the method of even wicked politicians who amass people deceitfully to gain their votes during an election. After they use their votes, they throw them away as useless junk. Come next election [or come next networking business], kamadors use these unthinking people again and they willingly join them again. Kamada in network marketing produces networking lords and their stupid minions who always stand by their sides to support them and make them rich--even if they themselves don't. 

If you want fair and righteous network marketing, never let yourself be used by a kamador. Avoid kamada at all costs. And never be one! Be under a righteous independent distributor and be like him or her. The profits may come in very slowly at first, but it will work out soon, because God always rewards patience. Never give up. Keep doing the business righteously.
