In this episode of the "Get Your Fill" podcast, host Christine McCarron interviews John Solleder, a seasoned entrepreneur with over four decades of experience in network marketing. Solleder, a four-time author with two bestsellers, has mentored two billionaires and guided four network marketing companies. He explains network marketing as a model where distributors sell products manufactured by others, earning significant profits without bearing production costs. He clarifies that multi-level marketing (MLM) and direct selling are intertwined, with MLM involving a tiered commission structure and direct selling focusing on end-consumer sales. Solleder highlights the industry’s historical roots, noting its origins in the 1920s with a Black woman in Mississippi and its growth through companies like Avon, driven initially by women earning "pin money" for small household expenses.
