The products are good and the money has been too. I was not the biggest fan initially. We had never done direct sales (other than joining Tupperware to get the bigger discount) and every Utahn that came to our ward seemed to be selling something new. We stayed away. Then a non member friend gave her some new products to help deal with an issue. She started selling it because all of her friends noticed a difference. First time ever selling a direct sla3s product and she isn't salesy.
My wife simply tells people it may or may not be for you...no pressure and no loss of friendsor family.. She absolutely loves her company. I've personally seen many start from scratch and make a lot of money. I was skeptical...highly. But her paychecks keep getting bigger and bigger.
Who cares how it's sold? Direct sales is just another model. Personally, it ticks me off that Bezos skims money off from everyone selling through his site. His model has made him an egotistical, wealthy beast.
