Free Money

I recently received a Facebook message from a high school acquaintance I hadn't seen or spoken to in years. She had been thinking of me, she said, and she was wondering if I was looking to make extra money on the side. Apparently I'd be perfect at selling body wraps and weight-loss products — she could sign me up to do so, and then we'd both make money! This was my first time getting a sales pitch for a multilevel marketing company, but it wasn't the first time I had heard about this kind of recruitment tactic. I had seen her posts on Facebook, where she bragged about the flexibility and financial freedom her burgeoning business venture had allowed her. I had seen other Facebook friends hawking leggings, lipsticks, and the opportunity to hawk leggings and lipsticks under them. According to the Direct Selling Association, the multilevel marketing (MLM) industry's lobbying arm, one in six American households is involved in the industry. Most MLM salespeople don...

Despite across-the-board improvements in supplies availability, cost cutting and distributor participation, multilevel marketing (MLM) firms including Natura & Co., Nature's Sunshine and Herbalife Nutrition continue to struggle against macroeconomic conditions. Global inflation, including hyperinflation in Argentina, along with war in Ukraine and a slowly rebounding China market, all dampened the companies' sales and momentum in the fourth quarter of 2022. However, each of the three continues to respond to meet the challenges by transforming in ways that could bode well for investors and the natural products sector overall.

If these names sound familiar to you, you probably live in Utah, the number one state in the union for multi-level marketing companies. I admit, I have multiple issues with multi-level marketing. So many people in my ward are into one of the above companies that sometimes it feels like I have to turn someone down every day. I get invitations to "parties" every week, and just when I think one wave is over, a new wave of marketing starts up. I was first introduced to MLMs when my aunt tried to sell my father on Amway. Then when I was a new mother, an older woman in our ward quickly tried to resolve any difficulty I had with a new baby by hawking a product from her company. And on it went, with wedding showers with an MLM on the side and visiting teaching companions peddling their w...

While other brands that thrived with customers in quarantine have dropped off, sales of the easily slipped-on clogs are up nearly 200 percent since 2019. Like Peloton, Etsy and Zoom, Crocs saw its business boom during the early days of the coronavirus pandemic. The company's aesthetically questionable but easily slipped-on clogs were the perfect footwear for Americans puttering around their homes, gardens and kitchens during quarantine. But while many people got off their exercise bikes, cut back on D.I.Y. arts projects and resumed in-person meetings as a sense of normalcy returned to the world, they have kept their Crocs on. Maggwa Ndugga of Raleigh, N.C., bought his first pair in 2020 and now has five. And he is spreading his enthusiasm, giving his parents and sisters each a pair for Christmas. "They're not the most appealing things to look at," Mr. Ndugga, 25, said, but they offer support to his flat feet and can be worn whether he's working at his standing des...

College is an arduous but rewarding journey for young adults. For most, walking across the stage and being handed the diploma they've spent almost four years working towards will be a highlight of their lives. However, for some, graduation is only half the battle. Once they've left the nest of academia, many will struggle to find employment in their degree field. This and other factors have contributed to younger generations failing to achieve the same levels of financial security as previous generations. If that wasn't disheartening enough, many bad actors are willing to take advantage of the eagerness and desperation of recent college grads by offering quick paths to success. While multi-level marketing schemes (sometimes called pyramid schemes) are not new, they have seen their wheels greased in recent years due to a combination of a variety of elements such as an uncertain economic future and a shift to online work. It's Harder for Recent C...
