Is it really true that you HAVE to spend money every month with My Power Mall? The same My Power Mall that shouted from the rooftops that it would always be FREE???
It wasn't true when MPM first started up, but it is true now.
They tell you to just do your regular online shopping from stores in your own Mall to make money. In reality you need a substantial downline, and I think I read that your best income potential comes from shopping not from your own Mall but from your 3rd level down.
The money comes from rebates the stores provide. It is money they would have otherwise spent on advertising but as Mall owners and MPM in general are "spreading the word" so to speak, the stores are spending less on advertising, and so rebate the difference to MPM and then to you.
The business model was explained as if everyone spent something like $300 per month shopping on the internet.
It was even suggested that you buy toothpaste, that "other tp" and stuff like that instead of from your local discount store. Yeah, right.
Anyway, they send out tons and TONS of e-mails with shopping specials and suggest that you do the same to build your Mall downline. Between that and the sappy "happy all the time" Pollyanna life is wonderful and so is your Mall outlook (happy is good - positive is good - but enough is ENOUGH!) my own Mall just languishes.
I think the idea is a good one, but it is based on people spending more money than is happening. The people who joined for FREE (back when it WAS free) joined BECAUSE it was free. They don't have $300 per month to spend on the internet. They don't have ANYTHING to spend on the internet.
How is MPM doing as a business? I have no idea. I don't read the emails and haven't visited the site in months. My guess is it is like all other businesses. It works for some and not for others.
Will it work for you? If you have disposable income and would like more of it, and have friends or relatives in your boat who can join under you, then yes, it probably would work very well. If you are struggling to keep afloat, then MPM may not be the life raft for you.
