A concerning trend has emerged in the direct selling space over the past year.
Some companies, including Rodan and Fields, are abandoning the network marketing business model and moving to an entirely affiliate model, or a combination retail/affiliate model.
Other significant companies, like Beauty Counter, have closed their doors.
Regardless of the business reason driving these decisions, one thing is certain: the leaders who have helped to grow these companies are the ones who are suffering.
For those who have spent years building their business with the expectation that they were securing a foundation for their families, this is, in my opinion, the ultimate betrayal.
Further, these poor decisions have the potential to create unneeded fear and uncertainty about the channel and what its future looks like.
The truth is that the market dynamics of how people want to shop and work have never been more in our favor.
The industry is being challenged to adapt to current times by providing both a stellar customer experience at all touch points as well as offering a compensation plan that aligns to what entrepreneurs are seeking.
And from where I sit, this means having a plan that is based not on games, gotchas and

Top CEO Jeff Olson: Goal Setting Matters In Network Marketing!
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
Jeff Olson is the Founder and CEO of Nerium International, author of the bestselling book, The Slight Edge, and owner of Live Happy magazine.
This is what he had to say about goal setting:
“My advice for the new year is to set your goals — right off the bat”
Goals are the gateway to living your dreams. Why wait? These six principles are essential for successful goal setting:
Write It Down:
Whether your goal is to lose 25 pounds or make $100,000 a year — by writing down your goals you’re saying “no” to unnecessary distractions and “yes” to focusing on what matters most. Setting clear, measurable goals will help you see your way forward. Writing down your goals and posting them where you can see them every day becomes motivation for you to reach the end.
Be Specific:
Just writing down, “I want to lose weight,” is not specific enough — but committing to losing 10 pounds over 30 days gives you a clear and realistic objective to work toward. Clear objectives will also make it easier to see pitfalls in your plan and will help you recognize the right choices from the wrong ones. If my goal is to lose 25 pounds in three months, eating a donut a day may

Jeff Olson – CEO Nerium International Accused Of Massive Fraud
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
Nerium SkinCare and Nerium Biotechnology, partners of Nerium International, accuse CEO Jeff Olson from multi-million dollar fraud and ask in a lawsuit, inspection of the books.
From the law suit:
Nerium (Skincare) has recently obtained concrete evidence of numerous inappropriate transactions—totaling millions of dollars—that were directed or overseen by Jeff Olson, the Company’s sole Manager.
This evidence leaves no room for doubt that Olson is guilty of financial impropriety; now the question is the scope and extent. Nor is there any room for dispute that the Company previously underpaid Nerium by millions of dollars in equity and bonus distributions.
After Nerium filed its application to compel records inspection and served discovery regarding the Company’s equity allocations, the Company was finally forced to admit that its prior equity allocations were wrong. Yet it refuses to provide Nerium
