đ Network Marketing Briefing (June 11, 2025)
Welcome to your network marketer’s insider briefingâa quick, sharp update on the latest developments from the world of MLM, affiliate marketing, and direct sales. Whether youâre running a team, just joined a new program, or working to level up your personal brandâthis is what you need to know now.
đĽ Top Developments (Past 72 Hours)
1. đ Modere Reports Record Growth in Social Retail Division
Modere, a major health and wellness brand, just reported a 14% revenue increase last quarter, largely driven by its social retail model. Much of this momentum came from new product bundles and influencer-style micro-branding.
What This Means:
If youâre selling health or beauty, nowâs the time to lean into short-form video, especially Reels and TikToks. Modere’s growth confirms that peer-to-peer video selling is outperforming traditional Facebook posts.
â Action: Focus on daily video content + product education. Donât just pitchâdemonstrate.
2. đ§ž FTC Crackdown Alert: Income Claims Under Scrutiny Again
The FTC issued fresh warning letters to several smaller MLM companies over exaggerated income claims on TikTok and YouTube. Theyâre watching everythingâespecially content that promises âsix figures in 6 months.â
What This Means:
Itâs not the time to hypeâitâs the time to educate, demonstrate, and prove value. If your content is rooted in authenticity, you’re in the safe zone and far more trustworthy to new prospects.
â Action: Audit your funnel, landing pages, and social bios. Replace big claims with real testimonials and honest timelines.
3. đź New Leadership at Plexus and LegalShield
Two major direct sales companiesâPlexus Worldwide and LegalShieldâannounced key C-suite leadership changes. New CEOs in both organizations bring a digital-first, automation-heavy approach.
What This Means:
Whether you’re in these companies or not, this is part of a wider shift. Legacy companies are racing to become more tech-savvy. Tools like AI chatbots, app-based tracking, and personalized onboarding will become standard.
â Action: Start integrating automation into your recruiting and training. Use tools like Sparky AI, ManyChat, or automated welcome email sequences.
4. đ˛ Instagram Algorithm Shift Boosts Niche Educators
Instagramâs latest algorithm change is now prioritizing âeducational mini-contentâ in the Reels and Explore tabs. That means 30â60 second videos that teach something quick are outperforming flashy lifestyle clips.
What This Means:
You donât need luxury car shots or beach walks. Teaching how your supplement works or how to set up a simple side hustle funnel is now more algorithm-friendly and higher converting.
â Action: Record 3 mini-education Reels this week. Think: â3 ways to beat sugar cravingsâ or âHow to make your first $100 in affiliate income.â
5. đł Compensation Plan Shifts at iBuumerang and LiveGood
Both iBuumerang and LiveGood recently announced adjustments to their comp plans to incentivize faster team onboarding and higher retention at lower levels. These changes reward reps for educating new team members, not just recruiting fast.
What This Means:
The market is rewarding mentorship and onboarding systems more than ever. Your value is now in how well you equip others, not just how many you bring in.
â Action: Build or update your âFast Start Guideâ for new signups. Make it visual, simple, and mobile-friendly.
