In the network and affiliate marketing world there’s A LOT of misinformation, misunderstandings and confusion about what we can and can’t do. And to make it even more confusing – every company seems to have their own rules.  With the threat of being “kicked” out, we get nervous! In this week’s podcast episode, I interview an MLM attorney. Kevin Thompson is a founding member of Thompson Burton PLLC and has been named as one of the top 25 most influential people in direct sales. He is considered a thought leader in the MLM industry. I asked Kevin to help me and, in turn, you decipher between what’s real, what’s not, what’s true and what’s not, what’s legal and what’s not in the industry. Here are just a few of the things that I’ve been hearing lately that Kevin helps us get clear on in this interview: Is it illegal for us to be getting paid on membership fees from other affiliates?Does a matrix compensation plan have issues with the FTC?Can a company force you to have a minimum monthly autoship to be active?The FTC – can they actually shut down a company?And the big one – what can we, as distrubitors/affiliates, say or not say??? Listen in.  This is a really good one!  ******************************************************************************* Diversify your income by adding passive income streams.  Learn more at www.GloriaMacDonald.com/Passive You can learn more about Kevin Thompson, MLM attorney on his website here.
