Inspired by MLM Today’s Tale of Two Quitters:
In 1959, two "quitters" left a company called Nutrilite, (the company many refer to as the first Network Marketing company), to form the American Way Association.
Their names? Rich DeVos and Jay VanAndel, founders of Amway.
Interestingly, today’s Quixtar rules would prohibit DeVos and VanAndel from doing what they did in 1959.
