Probably like you, I&#8217;ve been online long enough to have seen plenty of MLM companies serve their time in the &#8220;hot seat&#8221; of media or other scrutiny. 
Really, it&#8217;s a sad time for us all because bottom line &#8211; the media loves to show over hyped national conventions with distributors &#8220;drinking the Kool-Aid&#8221; (sometimes, literally!) [...]]]></description>

<p>Really, it&#8217;s a sad time for us all because bottom line &#8211; the media loves to show over hyped national conventions with distributors &#8220;drinking the Kool-Aid&#8221; (sometimes, literally!) and it paints ALL of network marketing as a &#8220;scammy&#8221; business to be avoided at all costs.</p>
<p>So, as a professional network marketer, how do I (and you) work to overcome the negativity that settles over all of us when this happens?</p>
<p>Do we go online and post cut throat things, de-meaning the company and distributors?</p>
<p>Do we stay in the background?</p>
<p>Do we share how and why our own company would not fall into this same snake pit?</p>
<p>Do we reach out to those distributors, who in some cases, are not to blame at all? (And, in other cases, a small group of overzealous distributors caused the problem)</p>
<p>What DO we and what SHOULD we do?</p>
<p>WWYD?</p>
<p>That&#8217;s WHAT WOULD YOU DO?</p>
<p>EXPECT Success!</p>
