World Leadership Group (WLG) is a
corporation with a business model similar to
firms like
Primerica. They combine Multi
Level Marketing with financial product sales and
market the opportunity as a personal
franchise.
Thus, members of the World Leadership
Group can sell loans for commission and
simultaneously recruit more WLG members.
It's a benefit to start a down line as you
will earn a percentage of their sales volume
just like your recruiter will profit from
you.
As with other financial service MLMs my
biggest concern is with the way they
advertise and recruit members. Often
they post vague job ads on popular resume
submission websites and schedule folks for
interviews. However, what they don't
tell them is that what they're showing up
for is a group pitch session where they're
sold on the WLG opportunity.
I find these practices to be very
misleading and frustrating as they take up
the time of folks that are looking for
real jobs. Companies like World
Leadership Group should be upfront about the
opportunity that they are offering.
Some other complaints that I have heard
about WLG were from past members that
thought the opportunity focused more on
recruitment than selling. Others have
complained that only a small percentage of
their loans were being closed.
However, it's hard to make generalizations
about World Leadership Group since results
are ultimately individually based.
Overall, the World Leadership Group
business opportunity is not an outright
scam; they do give you access to a very
competitive industry. At times their
services and membership fees may not be the
best but ultimately it's up to the
individual to make the best of the
opportunity.

I also had a horrible experience with WLG. 4 of my family members got involved w/ the company, we paid registration fees etc. We attended to meetings every weekend. They do not tell you everything upfront. You do not make any money in your firts 5 loans,(they keep that money for traing you), is very hard to get 1 loan to close. I never made any money, I lost a lot of time and money but the worst thing was that my team leader encouraged me to refinance my house showing me all the money I was going to save by refinancing with WLG and what I got was an adjustible intrest only loan (big mistake)and now my loan is growing every year. I would not recommend this company to anybody.

I was pulled into this "group" by Sam leccima. Mr. scam "flip this house" on TLC. He called me because I was an Interior Designer and wanted to learn the business. Well he invited me for a rah rah meeting and I was drawn in. They kept bringing up how much money you could make, but never how. After I left, this was spring of 06, I was called the next day to speak with sam and his wife at their apt. Little did I know Sam was being sued by a woman claiming he never had a legitimate real estate license.
Well after spending 2 hrs at his town home I had in essentially spent $150 in one afternoon for registration. Little did I know I still had to spend another $150 for the so called online training, also another thing you might want to know is...I was unemployed and this was a hardship, sam said I would do so well in training and my personality would do great in recruiting. The more you recruit the more money you make.
I went thru the training, online, the rah rah meetings, that you pa... read more»

Anything bad you have heard about World leadership group is true. They are mostly focused more on recruitment than selling. When you start asking about the business side of thing all you get is recruit, recruit. Don't ask about selling, or doing any real work, just recruit.
Take my advice do not join this group period, it is bad company. By the way don't buy into the wlg hype eitehr.
