In 2019, Multi-level companies made $35.2 billion in retail sales and engaged roughly 6.8 million direct sellers, distributors, or consultants. No matter how much money the companies make, Josie Naikoi aka No the Good Girl dubs them illegal and toxic for humans.
Most MLMs have been accused of practicing sales using a pyramid scheme, which is illegal. The companies counter these claims by arguing that they use a marketing strategy to get their products to customers.
Naikoi’s story, however, is different. She was at the top of an MLM. As much as the MLM says they don’t practice a pyramid scheme, the amount sellers make depends on the number of people recruited. Naikoi was tired of these hidden schemes.
She quit the job in 2019 and decided to expose their hidden agenda on her YouTube Channel called Not the Good Girl. The posted video immediately attracted the internet users’ attention, impelling most of them to ask about her personal life and experience with MLM companies. We gathered from different sources and created a minibiography describing Naikoi’s life.
