Sorry, you mentioned the ninja. Time for a rant.
The Networking Ninja is a abuse enabler.
He takes abused reps under his wing. Reps who are demotivated, down on their luck, struggling to sell and recruit and who are emotionally struggling with the stress of it all. Often the MLMs funnel reps to him. To keep down their fall-out rate.
He then spits out his self-development bullshit and pretends that he could build a downline himself when really he'd be just as fucked as all the reps he preaches to. He gives them false hope, tips which sound great, but in practice don't yield any results. He's just a performer. His act is pretending that network marketing is the best thing since sliced bread. But it clearly isn't, otherwise he'd be doing it.
Fact is. He is prolonging a very bad situation for the reps he preaches to. He is the bringer of continued failure and further heartache. He enables MLMs to abuse their distributors by legitimising the whole affair.
I bet the family of these reps must hate him more than I do. Imagine watching your daughter struggle at MLM and be pushed to breaking point, and be close to quitting.....but then go to one of his conferences and come back all invigorated and full of new action plans and resiliance and fortitutude. And even more stubborness to continue and succeed.
Only for them to fall flat again and be even more in a downer the next time. Then they'll probably go back to him for a top-up. The ups get higher and the downs get lower.
When really they should have quit ages ago to be free to this abusive situation.
The ninja is seriously a bad bad person.
so that they gain new found try harder in their MLMs. He legitimises a very illegitimate industry
