With Arbonne becoming such a big name on the personal care products scene of late I decided it would be a good idea to address some of the questions that have been raised. IS it a scam or ponzi or pyramid scheme? We will examine now.
Especially in this time of economic recession, people are turning to home based businesses and need the facts.
Arbonne International LLC is a US based company with a research facility in Switzerland. It was founded by Patter Mork in 1980. Arbonne distributes its personal care products throughout the US, Canada and Australia.
Arbonne started as a skin care line and then moved into personal care products and now even into dietary supplements.
Their business structure is similar to that of the major players. It is a MLM (multi-level-marketing) structure.
As in other MLM’s, you will be required to pay a distributor fee upfront and then you build your business by recruiting people underneath you.
To those familiar with MLM companies, you will first be asked to draw upon your friends and family to try and get things up and running.
The hotel meeting and product parties in your homes will be the next steps for you to build your business.
With their number aproaching 1.3 million distributors worldwide, Arbonne is not a scam. They are however a MLM which sees about 90% of their distributors leave within 90 days.
If you are ok with the above marketing methods, then Arbonne may be a good fit for you.
If the above opportunity is not for you, keep looking. Find a company that sets you up to win with menotrship, a more attractive compensation package and the ability to automate your income.
Have fun and good luck.
