T is the season for consumers to be confronted with a wide range of health, beauty and fitness products and promotions. Many of these items aren't available on store shelves and are sold only through distributors. Many companies that market their products through distributors sell quality items at competitive prices. Butsome offer goods that are overpriced, have questionable merits or are downright unsafe to use. Before using one of these products, the best prescription may be to check with a health professional.
Some distributors sell more than diet and exercise plans, vitamin supplements or wonder creams.
In addition to describing the benefits of their product or program, these distributors may encourage you to become a distributor. If you sign up as a distributor, you may be promised commissions or other rewards-for both your sales of the plan's goods or services and those of other people you recruit to become distributors. Watch Out for Pyramid Shemes Steer clear of multilevel marketing plans that pay commissions for recruiting new distributors. They're actually illegal pyramid schemes. Because plans that pay commissions for recruiting new distributors inevitably collapse when no new distributors can be recruited.
