Multi-level or One-to-one?
What should we write at the intro of this company article? Is this really an MLM or one to one marketing company? Please put your valuable comments below- Ivan hersee (talk) 21:47, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
 * It's MLM. Already discussed above. Talk:Market_America Rhode Island Red (talk)
 * Indeed. It doesn't need to be rehashed. It's also complicated by making several edits at the same time- citations have been changed and content at the same time, which means a revert is going to have a larger blast radius. tedder (talk) 23:42, 16 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Starting an RFC without any recent discussion, or substantial new sources, is premature. It's leading to imply that something should be changed, since this has already been discussed at length. Regardless, Wikipedia goes by reliable sources and consensus, not original research, loaded questions, and straw polls. Grayfell (talk) 23:49, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Its an MLM per a bulk of independent sources. - LuckyLouie (talk) 23:56, 16 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Agree, this RfC is premature. It was launched without any discussion by the filing editor. So how can we know what sources exactly are “disputed” and why? - LuckyLouie (talk) 12:08, 17 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Agree. RfC without discussion on TPG, and after a consensus was already established, is not warranted. BTW "one to one marketing" isn't even a thing. Rhode Island Red (talk) 14:56, 17 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Actually one-to-one marketing is a thing, just FYI: |HBR: Is Your Company Ready for One-to-One Marketing? Coastside (talk) 00:59, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
 * My first thought was "oh now, where does this link go", and then I saw it was HBR. Thanks, Coastside, nice to see it in a RS. tedder (talk) 01:51, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
 * "One-to-one marketing" is a thing, but in Market America's case, it's just another buzzword on their euphemism treadmill used to mislead people into thinking they're not an MLM. - LuckyLouie (talk) 01:58, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
