I used to work for a DS Max affiliate, here’s how it works from a new recruit standpoint.

Day one orientation, you’re told how you’ll sell stuff and earn commission on everything you sell. The comission doesn’t look like much, I made about 60-80$ a day selling 60-80 items in the 5-10 dollar range. You’re sold on the idea that if you’re chosen to ne promoted, you’ll be making like 20 cents per sale of everyone under you for invaluable training you provide them. They tell you that the franchise owner makes over 1800$ per week, 10 cents commission at a time from everyone working for them, and that there’s more franchising opportunities in this city than there are people in this room! So just sell more and you’ll rise, and become rich!

What you don’t see is that your team leader actually paid for the ad you answered to in the newspaper (that was a long ass time ago) himself, he shifted from selling dollar store quality merch to people on the street, to selling you a potential lifestyle so far as you pay the fee to get in and can sell really well.

It’s worse than a scam because it’s legal and it’s still run like a scam.
