I’ve talked about my feelings with regards to companies like Quixtar and Amway. A friend forwarded an awesome quote by Dean and Laura Vandruff regarding what’s wrong with multi-level marketing (MLM) and multi-level marketers (MLMer):
What goes unnoticed to the MLMer is that when the neighborhood is turned into a marketplace, something precious is lost… which is not easily regained. This aspect of the MLM experience should not be underestimated, and the reflective reader would do well to think twice about the value of friends, family, community, and church fellowship before joining or continuing in an MLM.
