Lies lies lies, lies lies lies, lies lies lies lies LIES (to the tune of jingle bells)

Before I launch into former R+F's / current Shaklee Kimberly drama, there’s a new update in the MLM universe: Bodi (formerly Beachbody) has followed in R+F’s footsteps and dropped its MLM model. Yep, another one bites the dust, with many more on their way to meet the same fate. They debuted this news while their top earners were on a leadership cruise. Ooof. No surprise, Kimberly1 was prepped and ready to “support” all the displaced Beachbody/Bodi babes.

Support is a funny way to say, “to be recruited into a laxative company.”

As I’ve said multiple times, we will continue to see more MLMs follow this trend because Multilevel Marketing revenue is declining, and the business model is outdated and shady as fuck. Read my book, my friends! Also, check out this reel from MLMEXIT on Instagram, based on the Beachbody CEO’s own words. It is TELLING:

Now, back to business as usual. I want to quit talking about these ladies at some point, I swear, but wow, the content sometimes makes itself.

As always, to refresh your memory, read the Kimberly series.
