Comments:
I have been a Shaklee Distributor for more than 25 years. Originally I became a Shaklee Distributor because my young son needed to be on a healthy nutrition program. I came to love the Company's nutritional/personal care and household products and wanted to earn some additional income working from home. Now I depend on this extra income for my livelihood. While I appreciate the work of the FTC to protect consumers, I believe this proposed new rule has many unintended consequences for direct sellers and that there are less burdensome alternatives available to the agency to achieve its goals. Thank you for your time inconsidering my comments. Sincerely, Barbara B. Thompson
