It's not a pyramid. Primerica is a real company. Victims think they will be employees but in reality they are independent contractors. Then they give incentives to sign up other independent contractors. The money you pay to sign up is for their materials, just like paying a franchise fee. People get caught up in what those other independent contractors are feeding them and don't see the big picture.

Primerica sells products like any other brokerage firm or insurance company. Only way to outsell your competition is to have the best product or a good sales strategy. Their strategy is flood the streets with dealers or in their case independent contractors. No overhead and you make a little money on the side by them having to cop your sales materials. Then to get more people, you pay bonuses to have then successfully recruit other people.

Primerica has like 90,000 + sales reps. About maybe half that sells products and is caked up. Them there is 10,000 of constant attrition of dumbasses who come in with their eyes wide shut. And Primerica gladly accepts the extra revenue. I admire it actually. Capitalism at its finest.


Do you make more money by selling their "products" or by signing up new reps?

went to a vector meeting as well once when I was desperate for a job.....I got up and walked right outta the presentation and some girl started yelling at me like She's lucky I didn't knock her ass out.


Another scam I got tired of people trying to get me into is Amway.

sounds like straight cult status...folks in there humming and shyt

It's just like every other MLM scam AKA pyramid scheme. You make money only if you recruit other people who recruit other people who recruit other people. All the money comes from these memberships. What does Primerica sell? Nothing really. Their product is the membership they sell you. You become a rep but more importantly, you become a customer.

I never did that shyt. I was smart enough to recognize it for what it was. Just like prepaid legal. I've interviewed for Aflac and farmers. Same thing. If you not into sales and marketing. If you dont got a passion for it don't do it.

Clearly you're not, cuz you still don't recognize what it is they're really selling or how it's not like AFLAC or Farmer's at all. You're not selling insurance, that's just the product used for the okie doke, what you're really selling is a job.

Anybody with an ounce of business acumen knows that "flooding the market" with an infinite number of salesmen is not a viable way to sell ANY product.....unless you're making money off of each salesmen, which is what Primerica (and all these pyramid schemes) do. Real companies that are trying make money off insurance have a brand to protect, so they can't just have any idiot our there selling it. They only want qualified salesmen who, even if they don't make the sale, don't represent the company in a bad light so they don't fukk up future sales. These pyramid schemes will 'hire' ANYBODY, cuz once that person is 'hired' the real sale is done.....any sales of "products" that this person makes are just icing to Primerica. They'd much rather you signed up a new employee rather than sell one of their "products"...cuz that's a dead end.

If you still can't see it, then you're dumber than the King of Queen's audience:



Unless you think Doug and Arthur simply signed up to be a competitor to Brita :rudy:

I'm in Dallas with my cousin for a Momentis (another MLM) convention. I've been riding the buses while he goes to the pep rallies. Well anyway our other cousin came too and his homeboys came up. I thought they were all going to hit the town. But they came to pitch ANOTHER MLM :snoop:

It was awkward as fukk but :pachaha: at the same time. It was funny seeing how uninterested my cousin was despite being a "director" for Momentis.

One of those dudes tried to hit me with the "You wanna make this money? :shaq:

Just hit him with the :mjpls: and kept fukking with my phone.

I notice the new MLMs are more sophisticated though and are backed by legitimate businesses like Just Energy and British Petroleum. Energy is the new trend so look for more of these to pop up. It's easy money for the parent company as there's not much involved to get people basically do all your marketing for you with little overhead.

I was introduced to Primerica by somebody but I can't remember exactly which MLM scam it was. There's so many.

My mother in-law booked one of these bullshyt ass meetings at my house just last month. Her friend was doing and I was thinking like a women's Avon party or some shyt. Then I see this big Michael Clark Duncan looking dude come in and knew right away this wasn't a tupperware party.

I'm hip to it all but I ain't wanna shyt on him in front of everybody but as everybody left and it was just my wife and mother in-law left and he was still trying to solicit I had to call him on his bullshyt.

This particular company "sold" coffee. I asked him how much money he made "selling coffee".

He was like :dwillhuh: "Well... I make almost all of my money through my membe:pachaha:rships."

That's how it works. The "product" always changes but it's the same business plan. The customer is you and the real product is the bogus ass membership you bout to drop your bread on. Oh yeah they give you a chance to get it back, just get more suckers like you to give us their money too.

Think Ur referrring to Gano Excel....anyone heard of that?

this dude i met on the train told me about it but i didn't know what it really was about at the time so i went in for an interview, suit and tie and all:pachaha: got there this white dude was trying to sell it to me hard, telling me how it could change my life, i could make $100k, etc but at the same time they had some meeting for the existing reps in the next room and i heard everything they were talking about so along with dudes :ducktales: i realized this shyt was fake as hell so i left and never went back. from the following week and every few days after that the white dude kept calling me to get me to join so my mom who didn't know shyt about it thought it was a legit job and went around telling everyone how good i was cause this guy was hounding me to take a job:pachaha:

No real marketing person respects a company like that...its basically mass marketing where they don't even talk about their product...they don't spend money on advertising because they brainwash poor people to do the work for them.

One of my friends just paid for training materials for this. She also tried to get me to do World Ventures (http://jointeamvision.com/presentation)...some MLM travel company that she had to pay for 'training'.

Over the years folks have tried to get me involved in shyt like this...don't fall for it.
