  • A leader is someone who demonstrates what’s possible

    A leader is someone who demonstrates what’s possible.

    QNet India CEO Suresh Thimiri: I Have No relations with the company

    QNet India’s CEO Suresh Thimiri, in his anticipatory bail application has denied any relations with the MLM company and its representatives!

    The case of QNet, the Hong Kong-based controversial multi-level marketing (MLM) operator is taking various twists every day; but this one will shock its tens of thousands zealous subscribers and distributors as well.  Suresh Thimiri, QNet India’s chief executive, in his anticipatory bail application has denied any relationship with QNet or any of its representatives.

     

    Thimiri, in his anticipatory bail application filed on 19 August 2013, before additional session Judge DA Dholkia has said, “The applicant (Thimiri) does not hold any sort of relation neither with the Company (QNet) nor its representative (including Eswaran) against whom the Complaint has been lodged by the respondents (Gurupreet Singh Anand) in Oshiwara Police Station.” (See image below)

     


    Interestingly, the same Thimiri is often seen hobnobbing with QNet’s ‘sales force’ or independent representatives (IRs) as well as celebrities like Sri Lankan cricketer Muttiah Muralitharan as recently as in April 2013. One simple question, to the legendary cricketer. Why he is not promoting QNet in his home country? Is this because, Sri Lanka has particularly banned QNet in its previous avatar? (See image below)

     


    Even, Thimiri’s profile on LinkedIn shows him as chief executive of Transview Enterprises (QNet) (). Transview Enterprises Pvt Ltd is an associate company of Vihaan Direct Selling India Pvt Ltd that handles QNet’s MLM operations in India since 14 April 2012. Before that QNet’s Indian operations were controlled by QuestNet Enterprises (India) Pvt Ltd a company registered at Chennai. QuestNet Enterprises was operating QNEI eStore, a platform from where IRs, which is how the investor-dealers of QNet are described, could place orders or buy products and also enrol new recruits. After launching Vihaan, the company asked all its old IRs to mandatorily register under the new business name in order to receive their commissions. Vihaan is a direct selling agent of QNet and had done large financial transactions with Thimiri’s company Transview.

     

    Coming back to Thimiri’s submission in the Sessions Court, this may appear strange for those who do not have much knowledge of a typical MLM company and its operations. Most MLM companies tell distributors or IRs not to make claims for the products except for those found in company literature. (That way the company can deny responsibility for what distributors do.) However, many companies, including QNet and Amway hold sales meetings at which people are encouraged to tell their story to the others in attendance.

     

    Last year, senior Amway representatives Richard N Holwill and Rajat Banerjee, who met us, admitted that although some distributors tend to go overboard in pitching the scheme, income from being a distributor of Amway can, at best, be a source of additional income or pocket money for most people. It is not the pathway to riches as MLM companies make it out to be.

     

    Another modus operandi that is used by the top guns of MLMs is either they deny any association with the company and claim that they themselves are victims of this fraud! Reportedly, few years back police registered a complaint against a female IR (who has now become diamond in QNet) for fraud and cheating. The lady walked away from the case by claiming that she herself was a victim of this fraud. One wonders, why then the lady did not file similar complaint against the company? But this is how these MLMers operate.

     

    In case you are still wondering why Thimiri is not filing a complaint against QNet for using his name as CEO, here is an eye opener from the Hong Kong High Court. Hong Kong-based Kurt George Rocco Rinck, who was one of the founder-director of QI group, the parent of QNet, GoldQuest and QuestNet had filed the case. Although his case was dismissed on ground that he had signed a trust agreement and thus was liable to pay money to QuestNet, here is what Justice John Saunders had stated…
    2.  The particular business run by QuestNet made it necessary for various of QuestNet’s directors to establish in their personal names, to be used as what were described as “buffer accounts”, bank accounts in which funds were held, to be available to QuestNet, to avoid potential problems which may arise should QuestNet’s own bank accounts be frozen.
    3.  In order to establish one of these buffer accounts, on 18 November 2003, Mr Rinck made a declaration of trust in favour of QuestNet in which he declared that he held all moneys in certain accounts with Citibank in Hong Kong, namely accounts numbered 12330345, 12330353, 82346968, 19356439, 39052036 and 29342899, (the Citibank accounts), which accounts were in his personal name, and that he held:
    “all money which may be accrued to or deposited into the aforesaid account from time to time on trust for the absolute benefit of (QuestNet) until such time as those money are withdrawn, transfer or in whatever way he taken out from the aforesaid account according to the instruction of (QuestNet).” (sic)
    4.  By a subsequent similar declaration of trust, dated 13 December 2005, Mr Rinck reiterated the declaration of trust that he had made in relation to the Citibank accounts, and further declared that he held all money in account number 800777 (under Identification #800777 SAWTSCHENKO) with Dominick Co Bank in Zurich, Switzerland upon trust for the absolute benefit of QuestNet.  In these proceedings the funds in the various accounts, as at 30 June 2006, have been referred to as the Trust Funds.
    5.  A dispute arose between Mr Rinck and QuestNet around late June or early July 2006, as a result of which QuestNet took steps to remove Mr Rinck from his positions as an employee and director of the company.  Mr Rinck disputes that those steps have been effective.
    Coming back to Thimiri, the Sessions Court has granted him interim bail on execution of personal recognizance (PR) Bond of Rs25,000 with one or two sureties of the same amount, while directing him to be present before the investigating officer as and when required.

     

    We sent an email to the PR agency of QNet India. The agency told us over phone, that QNet India does not want to provide any information, including names and designations of its top executives at this stage and may issue a statement once the investigations get over.

  • Does all MLM Companies are fraud

    Does all MLM Companies are fraud

    I meet with so many people every month & I have found some of them are totally close minded & think as if all MLM Companies are fraud. It’s it really like that? Let’s first understand the definition of Fraud.

    What is a Fraud

    “Fraud is intentional deception made for personal gain”

    There are some people who start the MLM Companies with wrong intentions, at the beginning their motive is not legal or ethical or morally right. Whatever we can term it like. And that’s very unfortunate thing that such MLM Companies are able to open up. MLM Companies starting with such intension are definitely there to cheat people, to do fraud. Definitely there are fraud mlm companies in the market.

    But still there are some MLM Companies which get started with the right intension to serve the society. Today there are many MLM Companies which are running successfully in the market from many years, doing the business successfully & having Millions & Billions of Dollars turnover.

    Concern with MLM Companies & MLM business in India

    Yes, there is more concern with MLM Companies in the Indian market because as of now there are no strict rules & regulations for MLM business in India. There is no governing body which can control such activities, that’s why many people open the businesses of investment plan, money rotation & all kind of such crap in the market & many innocent people get affected by it sooner or later. But soon it’s expected that Indian Government will come up with regulations to monitor MLM industry in India.

    By the way this happens with any new industry. When insurance industry got started in India there were lot of issues, but once the regulatory body was formed things got easy & today insurance industry is contributing in the big way to the Indian economy.

    What’s the solution for people of India?

    Obviously all MLM Companies by no means are fraud!! What I suggest to people who raise up such concern to me is – they must avoid getting associated with MLM Company that has origin from India, other any other country where mlm laws are not there. Reason being as discussed earlier we don’t have any laws to monitor MLM industry in India, as a result in many cases it comes out to be fraud. Even if the company runs for sometime intentions of people can change later on as there is no watchdog to punish.

    So it’s always better to get associated with an USA / European / some other established company which is already running from some time. Please don’t only join on blind trust of your near & dear one because sometimes your near & dear ones get into wrong company unknowingly. And once our close one joins any MLM company & asks us to do same, without understanding the concept we join it.

    Read Here: How to Choose Best MLM Company?

    Who is associate with MLM Companies & MLM Business

    You might have seen some good educated people, people working at good positions, having good business joining the mlm companies, but you might not be aware some of the top shots people in this world are also associated with MLM Companies & MLM Business. Some of them are:

    Warren Buffett: owns 7 mlm companies

    Bill Clinton: endorses this industry ..

    http://youtu.be/4mApHtwa6xs

    Richard Branson: former owner of Vie at Home

    Donald Trump: owns MLM company

    Robery Kiyosaki: strongly recommends MLM business to a common person

    I will not elaborate who are the above personalities you can just Google it & you will come to know the heavy weights involved in mlm.

    By the way these people know more about life & money, than YOU & ME! Hence when they have involved themselves in MLM business, it’s better one should increase his knowledge & try to understand this powerful industry with an open mind.

    To Conclude

    Obviously all MLM companies are not fraud else such people would have never associated themselves with this industry & even there are regulatory bodies in the developed nations to monitors operations of mlm industry. It’s just a new industry that’s getting started & is there from few years. Some patience is required sooner or later rules & regulations will be there. Till the time you can definitely do the mlm business with any good mlm company.

    By the way this article was not to convince about mlm business, etc. if you understand the power of this industry get involved in mlm business with any good mlm company to change your life, else you are already living an ordinary life!!

Let’s be very clear & not be fooled by anyone that there is a short cut to success. No one has the magic wand for you where you can create a big team in network marketing business overnight.

    Recruiting people for your network marketing business is one of the important skill you must have so that you are not dependent on your existing team. Whenever you feel a group of people in your team are not performing you can always fill in more fresh blood there & generate more volume.

    How to Recruit more people?

    The secret to recruit more & more people in your team is quite simple:

    Talk Less, with More People

    This is what I have learnt in network marketing business. This is the thumb rule in the industry.

    If you want more people to join your team, show the plan to more people,

    If you want more n more people to join, show the plan to more n more people,

    If you want more n more n more n more people to join, show the plan to more n more n more n more people.

    Network marketing like any other business works on a simple principal of – NUMBER GAME! More number of people you will expose your business to, more number of people are expected to get associated with you. If you are sharing your business with few people, few people will get associated with you.

    So the secret is not to worry much about the conversation rate, but to focus on increasing the number of prospects with whom you are sharing the business opportunity.

    Follow 5 SW’s to Recruit more in network marketing

    Some Will (join),

    Some Won’t (join),

    So What,

    Someone is Waiting,

    So let’s Work.

    If you sit down after showing the plan to few people & you are not touching more & more people every day, you are making a big mistake. You must not stop. Keep the numbers rolling.

    But obviously whatever business activity you do it must be done efficiently. Here’s how you can give effective presentation.

    From where to get Prospects to Show the Plan everyday?

    Obviously to share your business opportunity with new prospects everyday you need new prospects. Sooner or later your existing Hot / Warm market list will get exhausted. But make sure you exhaust your list by showing the plan to each & every person not by prejudging in your own mind whether they will join or not.

    The killer technique is to learn the skill of Prospecting.

    Prospecting simply means talking with people wherever you meet them, building a good rapport with them, by having telephonic conversation, exchanging nice sms, getting connected on social media. Once the prospect is turned from cold to warm, you can judge what can be the hot button or the compelling reason for the prospect to join your business.

    Till here you have identified the need of the prospect, now tell the prospect what he needs. Make him realize & then give him the solution how your business can help him.

    This way you can get great conversations. If you learn the skill of prospecting you have unlimited possibilities in network marketing industry.

    QNet Is A scam In India or Legit?

    From the past 2-3 years, a lot of my friends have asked about QNet and they want to know in detail. They want to know, whether it is a legitimate business in India or is it a scam. And the people who are asking them to join their QNet group, the minimum capital required to start the business is 1,20,000 INR, whereas I have heard that one could start with 30,000 INR as well. On contrary to that, on the company’s website, anyone can join free of cost.

    And what I share with them:

    QNet is known with many names, such as QNet ltd, or QuestNet or GoldQuest or Qi limited. Over the years they changed their product line with new company names, so that when you search about the company on search engines, then you won’t get much information on previous names but only about QNet.

    QNet was first started in 1998 with the name GoldQuest and made numismatic coins, but later changed the name to QNet, when they faced accusation of being a pyramid and a money circulation scheme in India and also at other countries.

    Some excerpts

    MATTERS FALLING UNDER THE JURISDICTION OF OTHER MINISTRIES I
    DEPARTMENTS.
    During the course of Inspection, it is found that the above-said company is running a
    multi-level marketing or product-based pyramid scheme business. This is a new version
    of the pyramid scheme in which the consumers are turned into distributors and the
    promoters are able to sell far more products by selling to distributors than they would be
    • selling directly to the consumers. The philosophy goes that it is easier to buy than to sell. If
    a person can be convinced that he will make money by buying products to qualify for
    commissions from sales by those he has recruited, the sale is an easy one. The products
    in these schemes have become merely a means of disguising or laundering investments
    in the pyramid schemes while the dynamics of the chain promotion. the system is essentially
    the same. In fact, money from sales must go through the company’s infrastructure, and only
    a portion of the payout is rebated to participants. But must of it goes to top-level Independent
    Representatives (IRs) and rest of the amount is spread amongst tens of thousands of
    e participants, most of whom loss money

    From time to time, QNet got banned in many counties, such as:

    1. Afghanistan (2008)
    2. Australia.
    3. Rwanda (2009)
    4. Iran (2005)
    5. Sri Lanka (2004)
    6. USA & Canada (2008)
    7. Syria (2009)
    8. India (2010, as Gold Quest)
    9. Nepal
    10. Saudi Arabia
    11. Turkey

    It is difficult to distinguish between a legal and a fraud company. Unless MLM law is passed in India, it would be difficult to get the real picture. Same is the case with Qnet. They are already facing legal challenges in India.

    There is no straight way to answer this question. Inorder to understand QNet’s position in India we need to understand a bit of its background. QNet operation started in India through their franchise called Vihaan Direct Selling (India) Pvt Ltd and that time the laws on MLM were not clear. Mostly direct selling are laws are governed by the State Government and not by the Central Government. However, this menance of so called ponzi scheme reached to a boiling point where in the Central Government had issued guidelines for the Direct Selling Industry in India.
