Online Business Systems?
Ok, my gut instinct was that this is just another scam or some form of B.S., but my brother (someone I trust personally) sent this article to me, it's not like some crap that ended up in my spam folder.
http://workngetlive.net/business-news-all/index.html It seems very fishy and I couldn't find much about OBS online. You order this form online for $10. This form has no information whatsoever beside some testimonials on how people made money. Furthermore, it asks you to pay $400 before you get any real info (super iffy). (I felt really optimistic about this and ordered it) [I know] I didn't pay the $400, thogh. just the initial form. Then, I learned from a Youtube video, you get an email from a coach and become an "independent distributors" for a company called Herbalife. Aside from that, I have no idea what I may be getting into.

Well on the bright side Herbalife is actually a legitimate business of health care products. They do all sales through independent distributors. Some people are nay-sayers about Herbalife an they are entitled to their opinion. I have met people face to face that have used their products and ended up being able to get off of like 17 out of the 20 meds they were taking and no longer suffering from the usual side affects of diabetes and the associated meds for it. So it's up to you how you want to approach it.

It's exactly like Avon and Amway really. I still say that their (this goes for all 3 of them) "networking" setup still looks like the illegal pyramid setups. However, these are considered legal and have been around for quite some time making billions. So I guess if the law doesn't consider them pyramids, who am I to argue?

It may be legit(ish), but there is no way you would make close to that much money.
If it was true, why aren't thousands of other people doing it? My friend was roped into something like this and lost like 100 bucks for something that in reality was just a guide (and not a good one at that) |

It can be done if you work the system and grow a large network. It's the same with Avon and Amway, and with all 3 people have made good money. And there are thousands of people doing all 3 of these. All 3 companies rely on those networks and all 3 companies are worth billion because of it. Can it be done? yes. Is it going to be easy? not really.

Herbalife like Amway , Melaleuca and a dozen other direct sales companies sells premium product at premium price. The $400 is for a kit...a basic assortment of what they sell. Getting $10 for the letter is a teaser to test your interest, getting $400 reels you in because...hey...you just sunk $400 into something, you gotta get some money out of this deal. And that's their guarantee that you'll at least give it a try. Personally...I know guys who were pulling down $100k+ in Amway....a lot less in Melaleuca and as for as Herbalife...I dont personally know anyone who sells it any more...but that's just me. I'm not suggesting it's a bad move, just offering my knowledge of direct sales.
