Its basically the same as any other business except that it is built upon "word of mouth" - direct selling, and creating a distribution network of individual distributors/members, instead of retail shops and outlets. Yes, it will be a pyramid shaped structure, but heck, everything is a "pyramid" if we will look at the sales and distribution "network" of any big business.
