Multi-Level Sales
Multi-level sales, also called network marketing, is another common area. Hundreds of companies operate on a multi-level basis, including such well-known names as Amway, Shaklee and Mary Kay. They usually sell consumer products: cleaning products, vitamins, cosmetics, household goods. The idea is that you not only make money by selling the products to your neighbors, but you also sign up other people to sell the products, taking a percentage of their sales. People hope to build up large sales forces under their direction this way, though it is much more difficult than it sounds. These businesses will take some investment to get going properly, though usually less than $1,000.
