Overview of MLM and Surveyed Net DH-30
3.1 A Brief History of MLM
Nobody knows exactly when MLM began, because it really evolved over a number of years, prior to World War II. Most observers agree that Nutrilite – now an Amway subsidiary – was the first true MLM company. In addition to being the founders of network marketing, they were the founders of the vitamin and food supplements industry, way back in the 1920s. So the historical connection between MLM and nutritional products dates back over most of the twentieth century – a fact unknown to most people (especially those who think that, somehow, MLM companies are ealiz-come-latelies to nutrition. Most of the major product breakthroughs in that industry have been pioneered by MLM companies, in fact.)
The beginnings of MLM
In 1949, two young men named Rich DeVos and Jay VanAndel became Nutrilite distributors. In the ensuing decade, they build a large, prosperous ealizetion across America. But, in the late 1950s, a problem arose that was to continue to plague many MLM companies even until now. And it almost sank their business.
The manufacturing arm of Nutrilite was owned separately from the marketing arm. And, as often happens in such circumstances (not just in MLM), the marketing arm was seen to be making most of the money. There’s nothing unusual in this. It’s a fact of life that those who connect manufacturers to their markets take the lion’s share of the selling price, in any industry.
To make a long story short, a standoff developed between the manufacturer and the marketer. DeVos and VanAndel watched, alarmed, as their distribution network dwindled rapidly due to lack of product and the resulting lack of income from sales. Unable to bring the two parties to an agreement, they decided to create a product of their own that they could supply to what was left of their network.
Amway is born
What happened next is legendary. In 1959, they formed Amway Corporation. Within ten years, they’d bought Nutrilite, and Amway has rarely looked back ever since. It’s still the largest MLM company worldwide.
Of course, that kind of spectacular success soon attracts attention and, before long a rash of MLM companies sprang into existence. But there was also a dark side to the story – one that still causes problems to this day.
It didn’t take sharp operators long to ealize that they couldn’t take advantage of people under the strict, ethical rules of conduct required by the MLM companies. So they came up with a counterfeit version, based on a scam from the late 1920s (The Ponzi Scheme) that looked like MLM, but allowed them to fleece people who were basically the same as themselves… lazy and greedy.
Thus was born the Pyramid Selling Scheme.
The counterfeits soon emerge
It’s ironic that people still mistakenly accuse MLM of being pyramid selling when it was actually the reputable MLM companies that first petitioned government authorities to have pyramid selling outlawed.
It didn’t take long for legislation to be passed to rub out pyramid selling. But pyramid selling isn’t really a system or structure, despite its cunning name. It’s a mentality – an attitude – which is very hard to legislate against. Consequently, many anti-pyramid laws also discriminate unintentionally against legitimate network marketing, “throwing the baby out with the bathwater.”
Over the following decades, MLM has evolved and developed further into the wide array of companies, product ranges, reward plans and cultures that exist today. This unique, powerful system of free enterprise continues to grow, attracting more and more people to it. As we prepare to enter the twenty-first century, MLM has never been so well-respected, so healthy, so attractive or so rewarding.

Phase 4
Literature Review
4.1Terms of Services
Services included all economic activities whose output is not a physical product or construction, is generally consumed a , the time it is produced and provides added values in forms (such as convenience , amusement, timeliness or health) that are essentially intangible concerns of its first purchaser. (Zeithaml and Bitner, 2003)
-Intangibility- The exact nature of a service is often difficult to define , the product cannot be handled , and –ownership of an object is not transferred. Service is experiential rather than concrete and thus quality is difficult to define and measure
-Customer Participation- normally the customer is directly involved in the delivery of the service, e.g hospital treatment can’t be given if the patient is absent.
-Simultaneity- production and consumption of as service are usually simultaneous and therefore not storable.
-Heterogeneity- because the interaction between the customer and the provider is a unique experience , the same service can be perceived differently by different customers and by the same customer on different occasions. Other customers can affect the experience of a service , e.g. a quiet weekend at a small hotel can be ruined if two rival football teams are also staying in the hotel.
– Indivisibility- of operations and marketing – frequently the same people do the selling and delivery of the service . This has implications for training and the efficiency of the operation. Process design needs to ensure a smooth flow from one stage to the next.
-Geographical dispersion-most services need to be reasonably near to the customer. Use of the information technology is increasingly allowing major service organizations to centralize large parts of their process, while retaining a local interface with the customer.
4.2 Terms of Quality
The totality of features and characteristics of a product or service that bear upon its ability to satisfy stated or implied needs (Quality Vocabulary, ISO 8402). It is the fitness for purpose or use, (Juran) Quality is the total composite product and service characteristics of marketing , engineering, manufacture and maintenance through which the product and service in use, will meet the expectation by the customer.
4.3 Terms of Service Quality
It is the combination of service and quality that includes a number of different facets. Lehtinen and Lehiten (1982) defined service quality in terms of physical quality, interactive quality and corporate (image) quality. Physical quality relates , to the tangible aspects of the service. Interactive quality involves the interactive nature of services and refers to the two-way floe that occurs between the customers and the service provider, or his/her representative, including both automated and animated interactions. Corporate quality refers to the image attributed to a service provider by its current and potential customers, as well as other publics. Lewis and Booms (1983)
Define clearly states that service quality is a measure of how well the service level delivered matches customer expectations and delivering quality service means conforming to customer expectation on a consistent basis. In such earlier studies , researchers defined service quality as the extent to which a service meets customer’s need or expectations ( Lewis and Mitchell, 1990, Dotchinand Oakland, 1994; Asubonteng, McCleary and Swan, 1996; Wisniewski and Donnelly, 1996). Zeithaml (1987) defined that service quality is the customer’s judgment about an entity’s overall excellence or superiority. It is a form of attitude and results from a comparison of expectations to perceptions of performance received. Zethaml , Berry , and Parasuraman (1990) on the other hand, have chosen to define service quality “as the extent of the discrepancy between customers expectations or desires and their perceptions. Service quality has been also defined as the consumers overall impression of the relative inferiority or superiority of the Christopher, Payne , and Ballantyne (1993) have defined service quality as the ability of the organization to meet or exceed customer expectations. Service quality is believed to depend on the gap between expected and perceived performance ( Anderson , Fornell, and Lehmann, 1994). Gitlow , Oppenheim ,and Oppenheim (1989) also stated that service quality is the extent to which the customers or users believe the service surpasses their needs and expectations.
Service Quality has become an increasingly important factor for success and survival in the banking sector. Provision of high quality service aids in meeting several requirements such as customer satisfaction and its consequent loyalty and market share, soliciting new customers, improved productivity, financial performance and profitability (Collet et al , 1990; Jilian and Ramaseshan, 1994: Lewis ,1989, 1993; Llosa et al, 1998).
4.4 Service Quality Dimensions:
Since a conceptual model concerning perceived service quality was proposed by Parasuraman, Zeithaml, and Berry (1985),service quality dimensions have become an area of interest in marketing research ( Bolton and Drew, 1991b; Brown and Swartz , 1989; Carman, 1990; Cronin and Taylor, 1992, 1994; Zeithaml et al,1996) One of the important issues related to service quality is the dimensions of service quality, and the measurement tool, SERVQUAL developed by Parasuraman et al. (1988) has been the starting point of the controversy in this area.
Parasurarnan et al. (1988) identify five quality dimensions, which link specific service characteristics to consumer expectations of quality. These five basic dimensions are reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy, and tangibles.
1) Reliability: Reliability is defined as the ability to perform the promised service dependably and accurately (Parasuraman et al,1988). Reliability involves consistency of performance and dependability. It means that the firm performs the service right first time. It is also means that the firm honors its promises. Specifically it involves accuracy in billing, keeping record properly, delivering the product in right time and performing the service at the designated time.
Reliability refers to the extent to which retail service provides what was promised when it was promised ( Dabholkar, Thorpe, and Rentz, 1996)
2) Responsiveness : Responsiveness is defined as the willingness to help customers and provide prompt service (Parasurman et al, 1988) It concerns the willingness or readiness of employees to provide services. Responsiveness involves timeliness of service like posting a transaction slip immediately, returning a phone call quickly, giving prompt service , and setting up appointments quickly. According to Zeithaml et al.(1990), responsiveness refers to the motivation to help (internal customers and provide prompt service to them.
3) Assurance : Parasuraman et al. (1988) defined assurance as the knowledge and courtesy of employees and their ability to convey trust and confidence. Assurance involves trustworthiness, believability and honesty. It involves having the customer’s best interest at heart. Contribution to credibility includes company name, company reputation, personnel: how much a hard sell is employed in interactions with the customer (Parasuraman et al, 1985) According to Bahia and Nantel (2000), assurance represents the friendliness and courtesy of employees- personalized attention to the customer and the ability of employees to inspire confidence . Zeithaml et al. (1990) defined assurance as the customers.
4) Empathy: According to Parasurraman et al. (1988) empathy is defined as caring and individualized attention provided to customers. Empathy refers to graciousness, respect, consideration and friendliness of contact personnel including receptionists, telephone operators, etc. It includes consideration for the consumer’s property, clean and neat appearance of the contact personnel.
5) Tangibles: Tangibles are the physical facilities, equipment, and appearance of personnel in services (Parasuraman et al,1988). It includes all the physical evidence of the service like the facilities, appearance of personnel, tools or equipment used to provide the service, physical representations of the services (e.g. statements), and even other customers.
Zeithaml et al.(1990) stated that tangibles are the appearance of physical facilities, equipment, personnel, and communication materials. Tangibles of service are the tangible facts of the service facility (equipment, signage, employee appearance, etc.)
4.5 Customer Service: It is the service provided in support of a company’s core product. (Zeithaml and Bitner, 2003) In Brief, good customer service is the key to a successful organization and customer relation. Furthermore, good customer service fosters growth because each satisfied customer will tell at least we other people about the product or service of the business, some of who will become customers.
4.6 Mean:
Mean is the average value that is obtained by summing all elements in a set and dividing by the number of elements (Malhotra, 2003)
4.7 Variance:
Variance is the mean squared deviation of all the values from the mean ( Malhotra, 2003).
4.8 Standard Deviation
Standard deviation is the square root of the variance ( Malhotra, 2003)
Phase 5
Analysis of
Customer’s Perception
As the researcher set his sample size as 100 from the concerned population for the research, he took a survey on 100 customers. The survey was made by the closed ended structured questionnaire containing 16 items or questions with five point Liker scale in order to measure the perception about the service and product quality of Destiny Group. The Researcher had classified the total customers into four classes and responses had been collected according to these classification. The researcher went to the DH-30 Net office of Destiny 2000 Ltd. And found many customers who had come to know the MLM concept or to have the product and varieties type of needs of Destiny Group. There the researcher selected the customers by random sampling and conducted the survey. As the questionnaire to was written in English, and included some technical words, the researcher had to explain some parts of the questionnaires into Microsoft Excel. Then by using the software he came up with the findings which helped to explain the Client’s sensing about MLM and Destiny Group.
As mentioned earlier the questionnaire had 16 items and or question one customer had to respond any of the points among the five Likert scale. For the reason under each item the researcher got 100 answers (As there was no missing data) within the five point of scale.
