Episode 299 : Maile

ROBERTA BLEVINS
About this episode

On April 11th, the MLM Modere, who had been in business for over 23 years, shocked it's reps and shut it doors unexpectedly. That same day, I got a text from Maile, letting me know that since Modere was gone, she was finally free to tell her story and share the secrets she knew about the company. In this juicy tell all we talk about some of the more outrageous special perks top reps received and speculate about why they closed and who had advance knowledge of it.
