Basterrak, you asked about MLM workers in a co-working space. Not trying to step on anyone's toes here, especially since I'm a newbie to the scene, and have been lurking for a little bit.
I used to work for a scam artist. Literal scam artist. If you ever get involved in something and it feels like a scam, talk to me. Anyway, MLM, or as it's known now, "Network Marketing" is extremely difficult to co-exist with. Remember, whatever they are selling is a sideline. The real money is in your downline, or how many members you recruit to be "under" you. So they are ALWAYS hunting for new people. Always. Did I mention always? As nice as they can be, they can also be a real pain to be around. "No, I don't want any damn vitamins!" :) Also, they have to look bigger than they actually are, to impress potential downline. So if you offer mailstop services, and virtual office, expect them to take FULL advantage of it. "Yes, this is my office" "See how important I am." I mean, to an extent, that's fine. But it can get old fast. So be careful. If you let them in, I would go over the rules carefully, and make them sign off. Any of them that are higher up's in the company, will always be shopping around for new companies to be a part of. Once that happens, they will be skipping that office, to join their new company in their new office. The real money is in the downlines, and the faster you are in a company, the longer your downline is. So they are always looking to be first in. Of course, when they get shut down, they're first out. Long story short, expect them not to pay their last invoice/membership fee. "Oh, I'm not with them anymore. Sorry." <so-sorry face> Again, not trying to alienate anyone, just sharing some experiences I've had.
