Most products were bought by distributors and Herbalife relied on the churn of new distributors to stay alive. <br /><br />Herbalife recently opened or isopening brick and mortar stores in Kansas so I wonder how that works with nutrinition clubs and copeting with Herbalife distributors? I believe Herbalife will fail in the US and rely on foreign expansion to stay alive. 80% of their business is overseas. It will be interesting. Stay tuned, Herbalife must implement fully, all the FTC injunctions by May 2017, so we'll see what happens.Joecoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09121920263105613498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494309285043063074.post-49746094838248504342016-12-08T05:35:34.886-08:002016-12-08T05:35:34.886-08:00Joe,

She basically said, Herbalife at this time can't be called a pyramid, but it also can't not be called a pyramid...this is the most politically correct statement to basically say Herbalife is a pyramid, but we can't come out and directly say it, because we had a settlement.John Doehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05186871105223753934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494309285043063074.post-32642002391692268192016-12-07T21:36:15.423-08:002016-12-07T21:36:15.423-08:00In any MLM, you can't possibly make any "...In any MLM, you can't possibly make any "serious" money in MLM. In the recent FTC vs. Herbalife, they found that Herbalife "bigshots' made their money by recruiting and not by sales to customers. And the vast majority lost money. Those are the hallmarks of a pyramid scheme, even though the FTC didn't charge them as such. The FTC instead, settled for fining them 200 million and overhauling their entire US operations to make them prove that they have a majority of retail sales to customers who are not Herbalife distributors.<br /><br />I think Herbalife will survive because about 80% of their business is out of the US, but I believe the US operations will shrink.Joecoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09121920263105613498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8494309285043063074.post-8530579264536810302016-12-07T21:26:06.373-08:002016-12-07T21:26:06.373-08:00Anon @1:27PM That means that the only way to make ...Anon @1:27PM That means that the only way to make 200K or whatever is by RECRUITING which means JoeCool is telling the truth.
