Description

Hey hun! We have an amazing opportunity for you this week! All you have to do is listen to this podcast, message all your friends about it, and pay us a small new listener fee of your firstborn child! Then you'll be well on your way to reaching total #GirlBoss status! JKs! (Kind of...) In this week's episode, we deep dive into MLMs, also known as network marketing businesses, after TikTok became the first social media platform to ban MLM-related content in December. We explain what an MLM is, the difference between an MLM and a pyramid scheme (hint: not much), and why they're controversial. We look at the predatory nature of these companies, the *actual* income disclosure statements from some of these businesses, and how social media has changed the MLM industry for better and worse.
