MLM Therapy Comes to Your Living Room

May 6

We want you to spread the word! Believe the Movie - a mockumentary about the MLM business is officially out on DVD.

The movie is written and directed by former Amway distributor Loki Mulholland. For 4 years “I was one of those gung-ho distributors who listened to the tapes and went to the conventions. I did it all… except make money. Little did I know that you have better odds winning in Vegas than you do succeeding in multi-level-marketing,” says Mulholland.

He tapped his own experiences as a basis for the movie. “The film is a reflection of a lot of people’s experiences with MLM,” says Mulholland, “and is a light-hearted comedy about the business in a way that MLMers can get a good laugh as well as those who oppose MLMs. But there’s a lot of truth to the movie as well.”

Believe is set in the anywhere town of Springfield and follows the life of Adam Pendon (played by Larry Bagby, Walk the Line), a laid off steel mill worker who must find a new way to provide for his family, when he is introduced to Believe Industries, a multi-level marketing company, by an overzealous recruiter, Mark Fuller (played by Lincoln Hoppe, Saints and Soldiers).

The movie follows the “unique” lifestyles of several different “Believers” (Believers are distributors who work for Believe Industries), including a couple who can’t seem to make a dime and another couple destined for either the high life or the divorce court. Believe the Movie features an appearance by Graham Russell of Air Supply, who sings an original song by Mulholland.

You might laugh or, depending on how much you’ve lost on MLM ventures, cry. The movie is a very inexpensive form of therapy!
