Companies such as Nikken and Enagic offer both sales and personal development training that have made a significant difference in their distributors’ lives.

Absolutely. First, it should be noted that this industry boasts some of the best motivational and teaching trainers in the sales business. Just Google “MLM Training” and you will be led to great trainers and systems, such as Zig Ziglar and Robert Butwin. Also touch base with some of the leaders at the MLMLegal.com Starting and Running the Successful MLM Company Conference.

As to companies, the very best companies offer significant leadership and training programs. Affiliate organizations of Amway such as Britt and Yager have offered superlative training for decades. Companies such as Nikken and Enagic offer both sales and personal development training that have made a significant difference in their distributors’ lives. Training is a passion for some company CEOs such as Jeff Olson of Nerium International or Richard Brooke, Founder of Oxyfresh.

Those companies that have succeeded have been synonymous with rich training and development. From a legal standpoint, a solid training program, that involves distributors working with their downlines, also deflates accusations of “lottery” by state and federal regulatory agencies because it supports the proposition that upline leaders participate in override commissions based on supervisory activity and not merely based on chance.

The definitions of “upline” and “downline” can be rather simple to explain even though compensation plan structures are rather complex. Here we have provided a brief and simple explanation of uplines and downlines.

Multi-level marketing, otherwise known as network marketing, MLM, party plan, and/or direct selling, is a business in which a sales force sells products and services through word-of-mouth marketing. The sales force (also known as consultants, representatives, distributors, etc.) is compensated not only by the sale of products and services to customers, but also for the sales made other sales people whom they recruit. As a consultant recruits other consultants, they generally earn a percentage of their recruits’ sales. These recruits are called the “downline” distributors.

Conversely, if you are recruited into a MLM company then you will have a sponsor. Your sponsor – along with other consultants in levels above you – is considered your “upline.” Your upline will receive a percentage of your sales. This will entice them to recruit more consultants.
