The Biggest Multi Level Marketing Companies

Avon

Multilevel marketing companies are something of a controversy. Those who believe in them really believe and those who don’t, well, they don’t. These companies are targeted at those who are looking for a specific product and an opportunity to work for themselves in a multilevel corporation. Many of these companies are referred to as ladder schemes, but some people make a lot of money working for these marketing companies.

Tupperware Brands — $2.6 Billion

Virtually every woman in the country has been invited to a Tupperware party of some sort in her life. At a party such as this, women ooh and aah over Tupperware designed to change their lives, make them more organized and help them live life without nearly as much stress. It works, because this company is billion dollar industry, making it the 5th largest in the company.

Mary Kay — $3.1 Billion

Mary Kay founded her makeup line many years ago in Texas. She began recruiting women to share her line with other women, eventually forming the company that women today love. The brand loyalty is one of the biggest in the country, with many women using only this product for decades without ever leaving behind their favorites.

Herbalife — $4.1 Billion

This company was designed to make it easier for dieters to lose weight and get healthy. Though it’s nowhere near as old and established as many of the other companies on this list, it is one of the biggest and most successful. Those who market the product find that it virtually sells itself to those who are desperate for a bit of weight loss.

Avon — $10.7 Billion

Avon, like Mary Kay, is a line of cosmetics and skincare. This company is the largest, most successful makeup marketing company in the world. The products range from casual everyday uses to top-of-the-line products designed to help women who have severe problems with their skin. It’s also a very charitable company, which seems to boost their popularity with the world.

Amway — $11.3 Billion

This is not your typical marketing company. This one is designed to bring people a bigger, better way of life. The products promoted by Amway are numerous. They have no “single” niche, which makes it a bit more appealing to their fans and those who want to become involved in the industry. The promise of making money is something they stand by to those who are able to make it work.
