: - I to was involved in this scam luckly for only two days. My expirience I am sure wasn't as bad as others but I know that I have never felt so humiliated in my life. I also have never met someone who was completely brainwashed. I feel sorry for the people who are involved and think they are going to make lots of money.
: The very first thing that led me to believe that this was a fraud is the fact that the first day the supervisor wanted us to sell a bunch of bottles to family and freinds and to get our blood pumpimg and our eyes to pop out of our sockets he said there would be a 1st prize of $300.00. so what did I do I sold becuase I wanted to win. Well the next day I had comeback with what they call "transactions" well I had 12 and by far won 1st prize. I bet you can guess what happened I didn't get the money. The excuse was that our group as a whole didn't sell the required amount. That was never said to me the previous day. That is when I knew it was a fraud. Somy words of advice would be "DONT BE FOOLED" please be careful and know that they are not out to help you they are to have you work and they get paid.
i have been involved with this companies affiliate
in los angeles, and after the first couple of days, i knew something was wrong here. they dont tell you everything and if this was an upstanding,legit,ethical company,everything would be disclosed immediately and one should not have to beat the answers out of the so called managers.
at first, you have to pass stage one which is about a week of sales. its pretty reamarkable how that week can turn into a few months. i dont understand the reason why the people who are getting ready to get into an office have to still go out and solicit.oh wait, its not soliciting, its promoting.bullshit!they lose nothing by giving us their time.people can post messages here and claim that they give us their time, hello you ignorant,brainwashed dumbasses, thats how they make their money. they are working by using us and acting as if they really care about us and want us to succeed. sure they get happy when we drop 10 bottles, thats more money in their pockets.the point is, they lose nothing by giving us some of their time.sure,i guess you could make money doing this, that i dont doubt. but you can also make money selling drugs.what kind of pride can someone get out of lying and misleading young people out of possible dreams and their future. i would never be able to feed my kids with money that was earned from lying to others.immediate alarms in your head should go off when at your first intrview, they state that they dont care if you have a solid educational background or what kind of work history you have.they dont care cause all they look for are naive people who dont ask questions and do what their told.i would think if a company was looking to better its profit and grow, they would want qualified managers or at the very least,some experience.there is an abundance amount of those type of people out there and they dont know any better.when you get a room of these people together and the main guy starts flashing money around and promises(not on paper,but verbally,which means shit unless you have it on tape) you an office and a promising new life, these people are willing to do anything. and they do, they bust ass under the sun and sell like slaves to make nothing.if you sell and hit your goals each day, you can still wake up sunday morning with sore feet and maybe just $20-$30 bucks in your pocket. now, im willing to bet that is not close to minimum wage.i went through training last week, i gave this place a chance, and i saw some people make maybe $20.now they promise you at leaast $175 a week.as far as i know, my check is not in the mail.now if they plan on paying the new people on commission only and bonuses, why dont they tell you in the very begining?everything is a big secret with these guys and if nobody stands up to these people, they are going to continue to do it.i think it takes biggers cajones to stand up to these people than to just be slave to them and watch their accounts and pockets get fatter while you get a bad sunburn and watch your checking accounts get smaller cause their not paying you enough to cover your bills.like i said, you could possibly make money here, but do you really want to be someones slave and maybe open up an office that can possibly be shut down by the law. remember this, they might pay for you furniture and first months rent, but after that all the financial responsibilites are yours and if someone takes your office down, you go down and the others just move on.
