Do you recommend any direct sales companies (MLM/Network Marketing) that sell more services/software (e.g. Travel, Entertainment, Health)?

Not looking at companies that sell products. Thanks!

Kenny-It would depend much on why you're adverse to "selling products". I've sold "services", and I've sold "products"...the former tends to offer some attractive yields, but the latter is more "steady"...at least in my opinion. Salesmanship is salesmanship...you want to build a reputation for knowledge, consistency, integrity and responsiveness. The major concern I've always had with selling "soft" offerings is the amount of control over the above factors. With a "product", one has the ability to learn the "nuts and bolts"...the "hard" facts, features and issues. I will admit that the other may allow a sales professional to be more "mobile" in terms of their career, but I've found my path to be rewarding and profitable none the less.

Sir, Multi-level marketing companies, are pyramid scams. They tell you that if you can get 10 people under you, you can collect a piece of their revenues. This gives incentives to hire subordinates. Let's say that this happens 8 times. 10^8= 100,000,000 people. If that happens just 2 more times, more than the entire population of the world would be working for you. Do you see how the business model is a scam?
