Is ACN MLM Venture A Scam

/in , /by

In the event you are here looking for information about ACN MLM business and you’re wondering if ACN is a gimmick, then you have come to the right place. So the big question is if ACN MLM is a gimmick? Are the ACN reps that you see all over the place representing something fraudulent that they themselves really do not know much about? By the time you are done looking over this, you should have clear knowledge about ACN and why some folk are calling it a scam.

IS ACN A gimmick? NO
ACN is a Multi-level marketing business that is giving regular individuals like you and I the opportunity to be financially free. The ACN scam allegations are honestly ridiculous. This really is nonetheless not surprising because the MLM industry has taken a poor reputation over the 12 months due to the natural skepticism nature of us human being and also due to the way the network marketers have gone around running their venture. This has had negative effect on the MLM industry over the years. So to emphasize my point again, most MLM businesses including ACN are not scams.

The 1st prove that ACN just isn’t a gimmick is the fact that they are marketing at least one service. You’ll find many companies out there selling the idea of mailing money to someone. Whenever you see this, please perform from it. There is a reason the industry is called Multilevel marketing or Multi Level Marketing. The company has to be marketing at least one product or service. There has to be an exchange of product and service from one party to another. This pretty much throw the ACN scam allegations in to the trash might.

Another prove that ACN just isn’t a scam is the type of services that they are marketing.

Should you are familiar with the corporation, ACN is marketing telecommunication services. They started from long distance services. Now, they market phone services by partnering with the key telecommunication carriers out there. ACN is currently partnering with Sprint, Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Dish Network, Direct TV etc. In places like Canada and other part of the United States, the Network marketing corporation now market energy by partnering with the major energy carrier in that region due to the energy deregulations. I have a question forr those making the ACN scam allegations. Are Verizon, AT&T, Sprint and the other telecommunication Companies scams? If ACN is a gimmick, would these businesses put their reputation on the line by partnering with ACN?

Ola Abitogun is an attraction marketing along with his brother Shola Abitogun. For more on the ACN scam talks, Click MLM Companies.

FPgirl Market Insights Program: Tweens Prefer Clothes Over Bling, and Rank Disney Channel As Their Fan Favorite

/in , /by

Beverly, Massachusetts (PRWEB) April 09, 2013

FashionPlaytes, Inc. today released new data about how tween girls think about fashion, style, entertainment and brands as part of its FPgirl Market Insights Program. Tweens are playing an increasingly active role in how and who they engage with from a brand perspective and are commanding a larger percentage of the family spend on entertainment, technology, fashion and travel.

According to a recent Market Insights poll, nearly 50% tween girls consider clothing as their top fashion item over jewelry, bags or shoes. This data reflects the buying habits tween girls have shown on FPgirl’s e-commerce platform, both in terms of buying behavior but also in the types of fashion choices they make as they engage with the fashion design process. To date, girls have designed over 8 million outfits on FPgirl.com, including everything from dresses and skirts to tops and pants.

FPgirls also prefer Disney Channel over rival Nickelodeon by a nearly 4 to 1 margin, according to a recent poll. In commenting on their entertainment preferences, several girls mentioned the loss of shows such as iCarly and Victorious as a primary driver for their move to the house the mouse built, as well as the popularity of the shows Austin & Ally, Shake It Up, Jessie and Good Luck Charlie. Tween girls are also showing a growing interest in reality-based shows that run on networks such as the Food Network, Animal Planet, HGTV and specifically A&E’s Duck Dynasty. PBS Kids ranked last in the poll, with many girls noting that the content was geared toward a younger audience.

“The girls of Generation Z are clearly tapped into the world around them and can change their preferences and loyalties based on what they see and hear from brands they love, as demonstrated by the shift to Disney following the end of shows they watched on Nickelodeon,” said Andy Komack, Market Insights Program Director. “We expect brands to closely monitor and engage with this key demographic as the market develops to ensure they stay engaged with this highly elusive and in-demand group of girls.”

About FPgirl Market Insights:

FPgirl Market Insights pulls information from FPgirl’s 700,000+ member fashion design community, where girls regularly post information, interact with each other and provide unique input via the site’s polls. The program is designed to provide previously unavailable information on everything from what girls wear, how and where they shop, and how they like to be entertained. Insights uncovered through the FPgirl Market Insights program gives brands a unique and unfiltered glimpse into what makes these digital natives tick.
