I remember when UPGold (diet pill) took our church by storm!
BAD stuff by today's standards, but it sure did give you a good 'legal' buzz back then!
You could probably get away with an Old Country Buffet gift card plan where you send a $5 gift card to the person at the top of the list then mail it to your 10 closest (for now) friends after adding your name to the bottom.

I've seen numbers over the years that the average AMWAY Direct Distributer only nets less than $300 for the entire year after all their own consumption of products and sales training materials are taken out.

I found that I liked some of their products, but again they were way over priced. Im not paying 6 dollars for a small tube of toothpaste just because it has small quantities of "tea tree" oil in it.
In fact many of us use other company products like hair products that have tea tree oil in it. It's very common, but the Company is a MLM and as a MLM the don't sell in bulk to retail stores but through individual distributors and that means high costs
