According to an article in the BBC Blog, the latest trend in Home parties is Wine selling, and a number of direct selling companies are jumping in.
Count me in as a customer
The BBC reports:
Out of the way Avon and Pampered Chef. Wine is the newest excuse to throw a party, sell things to your friends and neighbours — and make a little money. 
“I tried selling cosmetics and nutritional products, but couldn’t make a go of it,” said Diane Nozik, a 35-year-old mother of two married to an active-duty sailor in the US Navy. Then Nozik had a flash of inspiration after her husband took her to a number of wine tastings “and I really enjoyed them.”
Since she had wanted to make a little extra money, without the hassle of storing boxes of goods, Nozik had found the perfect solution.
“What I wanted at the beginning was just a product. I didn’t want to have to have an inventory. I didn’t want to have to deliver it. I didn’t want to have to deal with bounced checks,” said Nozik, who now earns more than six figures from her work for WineShop at Home. “I just wanted something that people would like.

Buying Facebook Votes Does Not Help To Win A Poll

by  •  • 0 Comments

 
We consider it a compliment when people try to manipulate our polls by “buying” Facebook votes from scam artists, it shows how important those polls are for the field.
We have had a couple of attempts to bring in fake facebook votes, and those fake votes are removed.
We understand, it is very important for companies to end up high in a poll however we want the competition to be fair and will do every thing possible to keep it that way.
There are mercenaries who have created thousands of fake Facebook profiles. Often they are from Bangladesh, India or East Europe. They sell their “voting services”
However we know the Direct Selling industry and as we are logging the IP address and facebook link, both our security systems, as regular manual checks will reveal fake facebook votes.
In that case we will place the company, CEO or Rep temporarily out of competition, as we do not know if that company is buying to votes, or if it is an attempt from other people to comprise a company.
To give a small example what we log:

Solavei Sues Stream Energy For Stealing Trade Secrets After Merger Talks

by  •  • 0 Comments

 
A Dallas District Court judge today blocked Stream Energy from using proprietary technology and information to launch a new mobile phone service after social commerce leader Solavei sued Stream for stealing trade secrets gathered during extensive merger talks.
Seattle-based Solavei sought the injunction to halt Stream and its marketing arm, Ignite, from using trade secrets and other intellectual property in launching a mobile phone service sold through an online direct-marketing platform – exactly the type of social commerce business pioneered and continuously innovated upon by Solavei. Stream’s mobile business was set to launch on Saturday, Jan. 24, 2015, at an event in Las Vegas.
“Without benefit of Solavei’s confidential information and the guidance and explanation provided during due diligence, Defendants could not launch this new business – particularly not in a matter of months,” the lawsuit states.
Solavei provides high-quality, low-cost and contract-free mobile phone service in the United States. The company’s core business strategy combines social media, referral marketing and mobile service.
Stream is a Texas company involved in the direct marketing of retail electric service. Senior Stream executives named in the lawsuit are Chairman Rob Snyder, CEO Mark “Bouncer” Schiro and CFO Renee Hornbaker along with top Stream associates who were bound by specific confidentiality agreements.
