Many MLM products are in the health, weight loss and beauty industries that are traditionally aimed at females. The idea that women should stay at home, be good mothers, good partners, contribute to the household income and be desirable is perfect for the MLM industry.

There were 79,983 active brand affiliates in 2019.

17.86% earned $33 or above = 14,285 people

82.14% earned nothing = 65,698 people

And this is BEFORE expenses, so many of the 65,698 people and a chunk of the rest will have LOST MONEY.

“And while old-school MLMs such as Tupperware, Mary Kay and Avon are still alive and well, a host of new companies have sprung up in recent years. Among the most popular are makeup and skincare brands Younique and Arbonne, diet and wellness companies Plexus and Beachbody, essential oils sellers DoTerra and Young Living, and the fashion company known for its myriad printed leggings, LuLaRoe. Perhaps you’ve been contacted by an old high school friend or distant cousin on Facebook who wants you to try the latest keto supplement or skincare products from Rodan + Fields, Lip Sense or Nu Skin.”
