Course overview

Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) businesses often use shame and control to recruit new members and keep the old. Also known as "direct selling" and "network marketing," MLMs have a structure where a person has a financial interest in keeping another person in the company. This dynamic can lead to manipulation, resulting in shame and isolation.
