Empower one another to become successful businesswomen
I don’t see why everyone has to hate on women owned businesses
They aren't women owned businesses. They are predatory business practices that lure women into taking advantage of their friends and then ultimately losing money.
Yep, this. The false hope is so cruel.

The women I know who are involved in MLMs are vulnerable people, to begin with.
Check out Lula Rich on Netflix. Just one company but there are plenty of problems with most of them.

What is MLM? Seriously wondering?

No, they don't "own" anything. They are basically sales reps that sell products for a big corporation, whether that's Pampered Chef, Mary Kay, candles, essential oils, health drinks, whatever.
They have a contract with these companies, which the company can terminate at any time. Hmmm, never saw a business owner who could be fired from the business they "own."
These companies have rules, that you have to abide by. If you owned it, you could make up your own rules and run your "business" however you wanted.
If you owned a business and decided you wanted to retire or change courses, you could sell the business. These women don't own a darn thing except the product they've bought from the company to sell.
If you owned a business, you could call it Courtney's Cosmetics or Fanny's Fitness Shakes. But instead, you and every other sales person in the area are Mary Kay or Juice Plus or Beach Body. Which they do not own.

These women aren't entrepreneurs or running companies. They're the free help. Over 99% of distributors lose money or, if you're lucky, break even.
I don't mind Tupperware parties or Avon or some Norway stuff. It's fine. But I'm not going to support someone's self-destruction and mis-label it girl power.

The thread is tearing down MLMs which prey on women.
