Sorry to disaappoint you but as MLM'er for many years Melaleuca is MLM. If you would like a program that puts the reps first check out http://www.gbgforfree.com It's free to join and you don't have to buy a bunch of products that you don't want or need. It has some of the most amazing nutritonal products I have ever experienced and I have been a health product advocate for over 40 years. Their products all have a 60 day money back gaurantee. I've been down that Melaleuca road. Liked the gold soap but you hae too high a minimum to make it worthwhile just to purchase what you like.
