What is the best selling MLM product of all time?
I am doing some research into the subject right now, but I thought I would throw out some ideas and get your feedback.
Leave your comments and join in the fun…
The first place to look would likely be the top volume companies in the industry. Amway and Avon.
I think we can pretty much rule out an Avon product because of their catalog model with so many products. The only product I can think of at Avon is their bug repellent lotion (that actually works amazingly well). But I don’t think it’s the best selling product of all time.
Which leads us to Amway. Amway has two possible products that might be right up there in all time MLM sales. SA8 Laundry Detergent and LOC Cleaner. While Amway does tremendous volume, they might be held back due to the number of products they carry.
Herbalife is another top company by overall sales volume, but I’m not sure they have had a runaway single product since ephedra, which they stopped adding to products in 2002.
Mary Kay and Tupperware are pretty much in the same boat as Avon. All three have lots of sales volume, but no real stand out single product.
A company that might be the top skincare MLM company is Nu Skin, but I’m not sure they have a stand out product that would be in the neighborhood of the top selling product of all time.
Ignite Inc might have a shot at the top selling MLM product of all time with over $5 Billion in sales since launching in 2004. Ignite sells power in certain states. As additional states are added in the future, the company may have an even better chance at landing as the top selling MLM product of all time.
Next we enter into the realm of services like Primerica, ACN and Excel Communications. Primerica and ACN both offer several products in their market, so I’m not sure if one product stands out as a top seller at either company. The now defunct Excel Communications is an interesting one because they basically had one product, long distance phone service. At the time, Excel was the youngest company to hit $1 Billion in sales of all time, beating Microsoft by 7 years. However, Excel might not stack up when it comes to longevity, leaving the MLM space in 2004 after only 16 years.
Other company’s that have had high sales of a single product include Xango‘s juice product, Mannatech‘s Ambrotose and MonaVie‘s original juice, but I don’t think any of them are approaching $5 Billion in sales.
What do you think? Share your thoughts in the comments…
Xs maybe? Not sure, that's a tough question.
I remember the herbalife ephedra green and beige ppl would lose weight like crazy … used it myself and lost some too …. all in moderation – I assume their F1 shake must be their top selling product of all time been around for 30 years
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge, i would like to mention that Amway has a best selling product brand Nutrilite or some other product like glister tooth paste and all along with the same some new Network marketing companies going to start or launching their products for example Stemtech is one of them. These new marketing companies are coming with a concept of health and wealth both.
It’s not yet the “best selling” product in network marketing history, but I believe that ProArgi-9+ by Synergy WorldWide WILL achieve this distinction!
Linda,
You believe ProArgi-9+ will do over $5 billion in sales?
I actually love the product line seacret has to offer. in fact, I have never thought about joining an MLM but this line of products got me so excited. I am seeing tremendous results and because of it, I know my friends and family would love them too which is why I signed on to be an independent agent. I just like getting the products at a discount. They’re amazing. They have a mask that you take off with a magnet. Very cool. I’ve also heard good things about Exfuze, I’m interested in trying the product, once I do, I will let you know.
Ty, The obvious Second and Possible 1st product is ALOE VERA GEL(drink) from Forever Living Products. It is still around 50% of Forever’s annual Sales of Over 3 Billion Worldwide from a Company over 35 years New… A Phenomenal, product that I have been taking(daily) for almost 20 years.
Hello Ty,
Not sure we should mention Herbalife anymore, with the gov after them.

They still haven't been talked about the best product ever! I'm talking about the precious metal gold people. Hit me up if you're interested
Yes, I agree with the last post. Gold is not a new product but no doubt it could be the best selling MLM product of all time. Everybody knows its advantatges and wants to have it, specially 24 carat gold ingots.
Well, every Gold MLM in the past has failed, so I wouldn’t put too much stock into Gold as the top selling product.
Hi, first of all let me thank you for your knowledge and time to share with us all this information. I am not directly connected with MLM industry but I use to blog around the topic. Yes you are right Amway being top best selling brand in mlm industry because of their existence since long and quality of their brand. while surfing web for information on the topic I come across with website, here I found http://www.mlmdiary.com which seems providing some valuable information on network marketing in India.
