Micro-business is a business practice that sells goods or services through social media platforms such as WeChat, Weibo, and Moments.

Usually, micro-businessmen will purchase the goods themselves and then sell the goods through channels such as Moments and social media.

This business model seems simple, but the core is to increase sales through continuous development of downlines, just like MLM.

The products of micro-business cover a wide range of products, ranging from food and beauty to health products, clothing, electronic products and other fields.

Micro-business itself is not illegal, but some illegal activities in micro-business will be punished by law.

For example, if the products sold by micro-business are suspected of false advertising, deceiving consumers, infringing other people's intellectual property rights and other illegal activities, they will face corresponding legal penalties.

In addition, during certain periods, such as during the epidemic, micro-businesses need to abide by relevant regulations when selling medical supplies such as masks and disinfectants, and are not allowed to sell inflated prices or sell fake and shoddy goods, otherwise they will also be punished by law.

Although micro-business itself is not illegal, it lacks supervision and is prone to chaos.

False propaganda, price fraud, substandard quality and other problems existing in micro-business have caused great trouble to consumers.

Due to the lack of supervision, these problems have existed for a long time and continue to harm the interests of consumers.

Therefore, relevant departments need to increase supervision of the micro-business industry, standardize the sales behavior of micro-business, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of consumers.

At the same time, micro-business practitioners also need to consciously abide by laws and regulations, regulate their own behavior, and conduct legal and compliant business practices.
