Despite being new- am profitable and impressed (despite my newbie ineptitude!)
Pros
-Tons of support available in different formats: 1:1 personal sponsor, training phone calls, YouTube videos, documents library, websites, email repirts & notifications, and truly speedy, knowledgeable, helpful customer service. -100% turnkey website for less than $8/month is mindboggling- your store is open 24/7/365 with no effort required. It's a vehiclebused in addition to the parties (th heart of it all)- but what an asset! Orders can be handled directly between customer & corporate - they handle the credit card processing, shipping, sales tax, etc.--you just get the profit. -The support materials make it such that you can give a decent party without knowing anything- just follow the cards! (Obviously- aim higher!) -Sat down & worked the numbers- just five-six parties/month can efficiently produce significant side income. -Placing orders online for customers is easy & smooth- gives you confidence that the company knows their stuff. -Am getting more excited about it as I learn more. Have tried MLMs elsewhere- found them to be a wearisome koolaid drinking endeavor. Not so here: you can still make decent $ without a downline, but have seriously significant/ intriguing income potential if you mentor others. More so than other opportunities- the infrastructure provided by the main company makes mentorship FAR easier than in other companies.
Cons
I seem to have one account number for my online office, and another account number for technical support/support tickets. Would like to have just one account, and be able to use my name as my account name. As it stands, I always have to dig out those #s (not all devices save them!) whenever I want to log in. This could be newbie ignorance, though. -The relative inflexibility of the Fast Track and Business Builder schedules. I get that they want people to hit the ground running, but it takes cash flow, honest real understanding of the significance of the incentives (before outlaying significant cash), and an open schedule to really take advantage of the great deals offered. Due to unavoidable logistics & not really understanding the business opportunity early on (family chemo & university night school schedules trump all) - I just couldn't capitalize on the opportunities-& I missed them by just a few weeks. Just a little wiggle room would have made a huge difference. Ironically- it's the only inflexibility that I've found thus far- the plan, company, and people are otherwise incredibly flexible & accommodating (like good partners! ;)
