Beachbody - The MLM Scam

Is it a SCAM?!? Let me share my thoughts...

I know when some people thing of Beachbody, they think "scam" "pyramid scheme" <--I know this because a few people have even had the nerve to post this on my journey page!! 😂

Network Marketing, MLM, the so called "Pyramid Scheme" (if your still calling it this, for the love of God, please get educated) - ITS A BUSINESS MODEL!

I like to look at it this way:
🎀I worked as a waitress 👈 I served people, I recommended items, I tried everything so I knew what different people would like and helped them receive it. <---sounds like a scam.🙈
🎀 I got into skincare. I had clients who came to be with a problem and I found a solution. I recommended my Favorite items, I recommended what I felt would be best for their needs and helped them get set up with a regiment.. 👈  sounds like a scam. 🙈
🎀When I started the spa..I found my Favorite products to "market". I told my clients and friends about them and WHY I loved them (and YES I used them myself) and helped them order or receive the product.. 👈 DEF a scam.🙈

SURPRISEEEEE!!! MLM is the same concept!! ⭐ You take (in my case) a VERY HIGH QUALITY product and instead of putting into stores and blasting ads everywhere, they give it to people to try, they love it, they recommend it, they help people with how to get it 👈  hmmm sounds like a scam 😂😂😂

This business model is brilliant really...I gave you 3 real life examples of non-MLM situations above but the difference is I DIDNT GET PAID! You make the same whether you work your butt off telling all your friends or you show up half asleep. 👈 FOR REALS..I'd call that a scam!

The cool thing about MLM..the company says "hey! Your looking awesome! Your feeling great! Your friends are like WOW KC, how did you do it?? <-- let us THANK YOU by giving you a commission for your hard work."
🌸For me...I worked my ass of for the man (along with a lot of others) for years, rare chance of getting ahead or getting above my boss (kinda sounds like a pyramid??)
I decided this didn't work for me so instead I decided to join a company whom I loved their products, everyone can agree they changed my physical life and decided to recommend this instead! I built over a 6 figure a year job from home by recommend what works in NETWORK MARKETING! <--- this means I have helped thousands of people reach health and fitness goals, helped other women see a vision of ‪#‎girlboss‬ and helped people quit jobs, take vacations, buy cars and houses ... I work ALOT of hours helping these people achieve the goals we set, whether health or business wise!👈  must be a scam.

So my question is..why is that someone who makes a living working for someone else, making someone rich, under someone else's constant control is TOTALLY legit model but as soon as the company says, let us give back to you for your efforts in marketing our product, people freak and assume it's a scam?? 

I like to look at it this way...
Good Products Are Good products 👈 They will get marketed some way or another.
Good business is good business 👈 a smart business man will market this as effectively as possible with the greatest results from consumers!
Good marketers provide GREAT support for consumers to keep them happy and returning.

With all this said...if I, as the little receptionist girl, can pass my boss,my CEO, and my President through hard work and efforts, COUNT ME IN!! 👌

2015 means we are doing things VERY different than 20 years ago...when I think shoes, I got online, when I think candles, I think candle rep, team prizes..jewelry rep, mascara..makeup rep, health products...KC lol. Traditional business models are being less effective and not as convenient for consumers...don't let retail strategy put value on what your getting 👊
