The company uses a direct-selling business model to distribute and market its nutrition products to and through a global network of independent members, or Members. Members include consumers who purchase products for their own personal use and distributors who wish to resell products or build a sales organization. Direct selling is ideally suited for the company’s business because the distribution and sales of its products with personalized support, coaching, and education provide a supportive and understanding community of like-minded people who prioritize health and nutrition.

In addition to the effectiveness of personalized selling through a direct-selling business model, the primary drivers for the company’s success throughout its 44-year operating history have been enhanced consumer awareness and demand for its products due to global trends such as the obesity epidemic, increasing interest in a fit and active lifestyle, living healthier, and the rise of entrepreneurship.

Product Sales

The company’s science-backed products help Members and their customers improve their overall health, enhance their wellness, and achieve their fitness and sport goals. As of December 31, 2023, the company marketed and sold approximately 136 product types. The company’s products are often sold as part of a program and therefore its portfolio consisted of a series of related products designed to simplify weight management, health and wellness, and overall nutrition for its Members and their customers.

The company’s direct-selling competitors include companies such as Medifast, Inc., Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc., Tupperware Brands Corporation, USANA Health Sciences Inc., and Amway Corp.

Network Marketing Program

The company’s products are sold and distributed through a global direct selling business model which individuals may join to become a Member of its network marketing program. Sales of nutrition products are reinforced by the ongoing personal contact, coaching, behavior motivation, education, and the creation of supportive communities. This frequent, personal contact can enhance consumers’ nutritional and health education as well as motivate healthy behavioral changes in consumers to begin and maintain an active lifestyle through wellness and weight management programs. In addition, the company’s Members consume its products themselves, and, therefore, can provide first-hand testimonials of the use and effectiveness of its products and programs to their customers. The personalized experience of the company’s Members has served as a very powerful sales tool for its products.

Segmentation

In many of its markets, including certain of the company’s largest markets such as the United States, Mexico, and India, it has segmented its Member base into two categories: preferred members – who are consumers who wish to purchase product for their own household use, and distributors – who are Members who also wish to resell products or build a sales organization.

As of December 31, 2023, the company had approximately 6.5 million Members, including 3.5 million preferred members and 2.0 million distributors in the markets where it has established these two categories and 0.2 million sales representatives and independent service providers in China.

Members

Members in Mexico developed businesses that became known as Nutrition Clubs, marketing techniques that improve the productivity and efficiency of the company’s Members, as well as the affordability of its weight loss products for their customers. The company refers to successful Member marketing techniques that it disseminates throughout its Member network, such as Nutrition Clubs, Weight Loss Challenges, and Fit Camps, as Daily Methods of Operations, or DMOs.

The company and its Member leadership, which consists of sales leaders, conduct in-person and virtual training sessions on local, regional, and global levels attended by thousands of Members to provide updates on product education, sales and marketing training, and instruction on available tools. These events are opportunities to showcase and disseminate the company’s Members’ evolving best marketing practices and DMOs from around the world and to introduce new or upgraded products. In 2002, the company entered into an agreement with its Members that provides that it will continue to distribute Herbalife products exclusively to and through its Members.

Member Compensation and Sales Leader Retention and Requalification

In addition to benefiting from discounted prices, Members interested in the entrepreneurial opportunity may earn profit from several sources. First, Members may earn profits by purchasing the company’s products at wholesale prices, discounted depending on the Member’s level within its Marketing Plan, and reselling those products at prices they establish for themselves to generate retail profit. Second, Members who sponsor other Members and establish, maintain, coach, and train their own sales organizations may earn additional income based on the sales of their organization, which may include royalty overrides, production bonuses, and other bonuses. The company assigns point values, known as Volume Points, to each of its products to determine a Member’s level within the Marketing Plan. The company has initial qualification methods of up to 12 months to encourage a more gradual qualification.

Business in China

The company’s business model in China includes unique features as compared to its traditional business model in order to ensure compliance with Chinese regulations. As a result, the company’s business model in China differs from that used in other markets. Members in China are categorized differently than those in other markets. In China, the company sells its products to and through independent service providers and sales representatives to customers and preferred customers, as well as through company-operated retail platforms when necessary.

In China, while multi-level marketing is not permitted, direct selling is permitted. Chinese citizens who apply and become Members are referred to as sales representatives. These sales representatives are permitted to sell away from fixed retail locations in the provinces where it has direct selling licenses, including in the provinces of Jiangsu, Guangdong, Shandong, Zhejiang, Guizhou, Beijing, Fujian, Sichuan, Hubei, Shanxi, Shanghai, Jiangxi, Liaoning, Jilin, Henan, Chongqing, Hebei, Shaanxi, Tianjin, Heilongjiang, Hunan, Guangxi, Hainan, Anhui, Yunnan, Gansu, Ningxia, and Inner Mongolia.

In China, the company’s independent service providers are compensated for marketing, sales support, and other services, instead of the Member allowances and royalty overrides utilized in its global Marketing Plan. The service hours and related fees eligible to be earned by the independent service providers are based on a number of factors, including the sales generated through them and through others to whom they may provide marketing, sales support and other services, the quality of their service, and other factors.

The company uses the umbrella trademarks Herbalife, Herbalife Nutrition, the Tri-Leaf, and the Rising Leaf designs worldwide, and protect several other trademarks and trade names related to its products and operations, such as Niteworks and Liftoff.
