Avon & Mary Kay may in fact be exceptions. Their methods seem to be just hand out their catalogs and hope for sales and word of mouth advertising by pleased customers. Let me caveat that statement by including that I work with someone who apprently has over $4K in non moving inventory in their basement.

I have NEVER had anyone I know come to me and tell me they have discovered this "great" product that was produced by Amway (or other ML marketing company) that wasn't directly involved in selling the stuff. That speaks volumes to me about the satisfaction level by customers.
