A brief explanation
Network marketing, also known as multi-level marketing, is a business method wherein you recruit salespeople (also called distributors, independent business owners, franchise owners, sales consultants, beauty consultants, consultants, etc.) to sell a particular product and you offer additional sales commissions based on the sales of people recruited into their own "downline." A downline is a group of direct recruits' recruits' recruits. This is somewhat similar to a franchise arrangements, where royalties are paid from the sales of individual franchise operations to the franchisor as well as to an area or region manager.

Network marketing is a legitimate business. First, it's based on providing people with real, legitimate products they need and want at a fair price. While some people do make a lot of money through network marketing, their financial benefit is always the result of their own dedicated efforts in building an organization that sells real products and services.

They work very hard for a few hours a week, with each hour of effort having a specific task in the building block of long-term business growth. They may sponsor other people to teach their "downline" how to sell the company product, and sponsor others who will replicate the process. By teaching the people you sponsor to sponsor others, you duplicate yourself.
