For the moment, I'll gently toss this link into the daily scrum. At some point, I might actually divulge why. Let's just say that there's a thin line between personal advancement and exploitation.
Nerium: Anti-aging Miracle or Get Rich Quick Scheme?, at barefacedtruth.com
... I soon learned that Nerium is being marketed exclusively through a multi-level marketing structure and that Jeff Olson, the CEO of the company marketing it was a huge luminary in the MLM firmament. In fact, he saw the anti-aging product as such an attractive and lucrative money maker that he left his gig as the head of Pre-Paid Legal Services to start the fledgling company only a year ago.
I must compliment Mr. Olson on managing, by whatever means, to flood the internet with comments about this product, but much more importantly, the wonderful money making opportunity it purportedly represents to everyone. The hype and buzz is sheer digital cacophony.
Mr. Olson is a serial entrepreneur who has worked in the electronics, solar panel, satellite television, legal, and now skincare industries. His success with Nerium resulted in it being the February, 2012 cover story article in Success from Home magazine, a publication devoted to theMLM world. Now that is quite an accomplishment from a standing start only a few months earlier. Mr. Olson is a rainmaker, no question about that. Of course, there is also the possibility that enough money can buy the cover of any magazine, especially this one (you know, part of the cost of making it rain.)
