Is Organo Gold a 'pyramid scheme'?

Network Marketing is a legitimate, sustainable, and explosive business model. You might as well get over it. Are you still stuck in the limited thinking that uses phrases like:

“That sounds like a pyramid scheme”.
“That sounds like a scam.”
“That’s a pyramid”.

Listen… I don’t want to insult anyone here but it’s time to wake up and smell the coffee. Life and business are changing. Network Marketing is a bona-fide business strategy being used by companies we are all familiar with. The simplest way I know to explain the overall concept of network marketing is like this: You simply refer your friends and people you know to a product or service. We all do this all the time. Most of us are just doing it for free. It’s time for you to get paid.

Here’s an example of you doing network marketing for free: Imagine you went to a movie you really enjoyed. The next day, you are telling your co-workers about the movie. Based on your excitement and recommendation, your co-workers decide to go see the movie. They take some other friends. Did the movie theater, actors, producers, etc… share any of that revenue with you? They all got paid! Your friends and co-workers went because YOU recommended it. Doesn’t it just make sense to you that they should share some of the profits with you? YOU are why they made the money when your friends bought tickets and snacks!

We all do it. We recommend restaurants, movies, books, clothing, music, etc… and we do it for free. Every time we refer someone, those companies make money. And they WANT you to keep referring your friends to them. These companies call it “word of mouth” or “referral marketing”. You are simply spreading the word about a service or product through your network of friends and associates.

Here’s another concept: Every time you buy a t-shirt that has some product logo on it, such as a soft drink company, a band name, etc… YOU PAID THAT COMPANY TO BECOME A WALKING BILLBOARD FOR THEM! And when the billboard works, and that company makes more money because YOU PAID TO ADVERTISE FOR THEM, they don’t even send you a thank-you card. Have you ever bought a Starbucks card as a gift? Nothing wrong with it but look at it from the perspective of the company: YOU paid FULL RETAIL (in advance) and then gave that card away to a friend. As far as you’re concerned, you just did something nice. As far as Starbucks is concerned, they just got you to pay full retail for their product. You will refer customers to them by giving away the card as a gift. They will not share a single penny of those sales revenues with you.

YOU JUST PAID STARBUCKS TO BRING THEM MORE CUSTOMERS!

But some companies are catching on and they are starting to offer to share the revenues when you refer people from your network of friends and associates. Another way to say that would be: “network marketing”. (Get it, yet?)

Here are a few examples:

DISH Network has a Customer Referral Program. When you refer a friend, they will take $5 a month off of your bill and give you free movies.

Marriott offers a Referral Program. Refer friends and earn “points”.

Vonage has a Referral Program. They will give you a free month of service when you refer a friend to their service.

Car Dealerships use Referral Marketing. When you bought your last car, did the car salesman tell you they would give you a $50 or $100 pre-paid card any time you refer a new customer to them?

Real Estate Agents offer you a “finders fee” or “bird dog” fee if you refer someone to them that buys a home.

It’s really just good business! These companies know that you have friends that will listen to you. They know that if you recommend their product or service, they will get paid. They also know that you are more likely to make that referral if you get a reward in the form of a commission, discount, etc…

Some referral programs are very simple. Some referral programs are more involved. But the basic idea is always the same: Refer more customers and get rewarded. In my case, I get paid to refer people to a healthier coffee. I give away samples of the coffee to coffee drinkers. When they like it, I show them how to order more. I get paid every time they do.

Sometimes, those coffee drinkers recognize that there is an opportunity for them to get involved and do the same thing. The idea of getting paid to give away free samples of coffee to coffee drinkers (they’re addicts) just makes sense, right?

So, in addition to referring new customers to my particular coffee company, I am also able to show people how to set up their own home-based coffee business. Because I got that referral, the company will now reward me with a percentage of sales from that coffee business I helped set up.

Look … it just makes sense to me. People are going to keep drinking coffee, no matter what you or I do. Network marketing simply allows you to insert yourself in to the cash flow steam by making referrals.

You’re already doing it anyway. Why not start getting paid for it?

Navigating the Organo Gold 'scam' nonsense

Is Organo Gold a 'scam'?  Of course not.  But as you know, the Internet is a funny place.  You can slander or smear anyone or anything and it just stays out there.  Clever people use the Internet to attack anything and everthing from famous people, to politicians, to religion and (of course) various businesses, especially the really large and successful ones.  It's all designed to make you question your beliefs or shape your opinion... and it's largely anonymous. These character assassins are quite clever - so much so that their smear websites inevitably end up on the first page of Google searches.  That's because they're damned good at it!  They're good at it because they do it a LOT.

Of course, these people are liars and their motivation should be obvious.  As a matter of fact, do a Google search for ANY successful network marketing company and there will be a 'scam' accusation regarding that company on the first page of Google (if not the first page, then definitely the second).  I guarantee it.  The same goes for the news media.  You see it all the time.  Anything or anyone doing well with network marketing will come under attack if they're doing 'too well'.  99 out of 100 times, it's some local reporter creating 'news' by creating a controversy.  But in reality, it's a legal attack designed to benefit the attacker.  The truth has nothing to do with it.  They don't care.

Billy Joel famously said that, "You know you've made the big time when you get sued."  It's because you've either got something they want (money) or you're getting in their back pocket (people are joining your business instead of theirs).  It's the same in this business.  You know that your company is a success when your competition, or just spiteful people in general, starts launching attacks.  People are evil, but the Internet isn't.  It's just a mindless robot.  So the only way to navigate 'scam' claims about any company is to to do your OWN investigation.  If you actually trust and put your faith in random Internet blather, you can be lead around by the nose to believe whatever anyone wants you to believe.

There are a couple of other network marketing companies out there with a coffee product, but you'll never hear me attacking them, calling them 'scams' or otherwise smearing them on this blog.  That's low-energy and I don't have time for it.

Lastly, there are a variety of attack websites out there on Google (along with some breathless media reports) about the 'dangers' of Ganoderma.  Well, Ganoderma has been around for thousands of years.  It's in lots of products and supplements and is freely available in bulk at any Chinese herb shop.  Organo Gold makes no medical claims about its products, though the various health benefits of Ganoderma are legendary.  Lots of people claim that it makes them feel better, and have since ancient times.  Some feel no difference at all.  Whatever.  If don't think you should drink coffee or tea with Ganoderma in it, then don't drink it.  Simple.  Some people aren't supposed to drink milk or eat butter.  So guess what?  They don't drink milk or eat butter.  Who cares?

Bottom Line:  Organo Gold isn't going away.  Just the opposite.  This is a red-hot business that is creating more millionaires than any other company like it on earth.  Some of the Top-10 MLM earners on the planet are in Organo Gold, and this company is still new.  No wonder it's being attacked!  You just have to laugh and shake your head...
