Of course once the people underneath you find out its not so easy to get other people in their Downline, they quit. Generally speaking if you sign up as a "distributor" you're on the hook to buy a certain dollar amount worth of product each month - if you don't put an order in the MLM company will autoship a box of stuff to you and charge whatever form of payment they have on file for you, until they cancel. The rescission rate is really high - I think the average is 6 months before they cancel. I bet Meri and Robyn spend a lot of time on the phone calling up people who cancel/quit trying to convince them to re-up, because generally speaking if a person cancels, the company immediately contacts the person who signed them up so they can start the pressure. <br /><br />If you want to know more on how the whole scummy MLM business works - google Penn & Teller Bullshit Easy Money. Very informative. As well as hilarious!!!

She has made a lot of money in the past but recently is trying to "rebuild her business". I think all the people lower on the pyramid who don't make money quit. Now she has no interest in a real job with benefits because she has made so much money getting other people to sell the products. The thought of working all day for her is ridiculous.

They are trying to squeeze as much out of this group as they can before they cut and run. By going immediately into filming the next season, they avoided the Browns holding up production with demands of new contracts with more money. Just speculating, but I know that happened with one of Bravo's Real Housewives franchises (New Jersey). They started filming a new season with no break, and when the "cast" realized it, they wouldn't film until they were given new contracts for the new season.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1083130180732134503.post-71678237037918335742013-01-10T10:14:48.414-05:002013-01-10T10:14:48.414-05:00I'm trying to envision Meri "working fran...I'm trying to envision Meri "working frantically to email.."
