Clearly sticking my head above the parapet here - I do Body Shop and really enjoy it. I have regular sales, I think people have liked the convenience of ordering from me this year than going to shops. I am not a manager, I have no team and no interest in doing so, and haven't once been pressured into any of this - if you're pressured for targets, recruits or to employ other tactics you question the morality of, then you've joined the wrong team. I have a great friendship with my upline despite not being a particularly high seller compared to others. I am not vulnerable or incapable of making the decision to join up. I haven't been taken advantage of, neither has anyone else in the team (consisting of clever, educated, smart women from all sorts of professional backgrounds who have joined for a whole variety of reasons). I have never made any earnings claims and am totally realistic that I do this for some extra money for the household while getting the items I like at a cheaper price - I'm not aiming for world domination.
However, I totally get why people avoid MLM businesses, I also get spammed regularly, mainly from Herbal Life and FM World, I hate the tactics they employ on social media, all the posting their salaries etc. Social media has unfortunately brought out the worst in these type of sales people and I would avoid them like the plague. I also don't see the craze over FM - perfume isn't a regular purchase for most people and I've had a look through their catalogue, it just looks to me like a mish mash of stuff.... perfume, make up, household cleaning products??? I mean, which market are they going for? Pick a market and try to be the best in it, not just a finger in all sorts of pies.
I fully expect to get replied to calling me some sort of bot, but I don't see why positive experiences can't be discussed.
