In reply to the discussion: Have you ever been involved with Multi-Level-Marketing? [View all]Ocelot II
(128,186 posts)19. No, and was never interested, since I have no sales ability whatsoever.
I hated even having to sell Girl Scout cookies back in the days when you went door to door because it meant I had to interact with strangers, which terrified me and to some extent still does. However, I have attended sales parties for jewelry (cheap costume stuff which I bought anyhow because the party was held by a co-worker and I didn't want to seem like a poop), Pampered Chef (by another co-worker, same result, that stuff is expensive), and some kind of energy/nutrition product (yet another co-worker, icky taste, no obvious results). None of these people stayed with these efforts for very long.
