Greetings!

Pyramid schemes are illegal, but what exactly is a pyramid and how do you avoid having one? Our first article answers these questions.

Are you competing for independent representatives? If so, who exactly are you competing against? Discover the answer - and how to compete well - in our second article.

In her March column, Victoria answers the question, "Why don't we pay hostesses?"

Don't Be A Pyramid!

Who Is My Competition?
In life, we all compete to win. Are you competing for your independent representatives? If so, exactly what are you competing against? The first step in competing well is to identify your competition. Next, you can develop strategies to win. You're on. Tell me about my competitors.

Ask Victoria
Why don't we pay hostesses? Hosts at home parties like to get rewarded well for inviting their friends and acquaintances, but money isn't offered. OK. Why not?

Our mission at Sylvina Consulting is to improve the health of your direct selling company.
