Is Market America Really Built On Product And Powered By People? You Decide!
| by Hillary Patz | March 19, 2008
Market America is an internet marketing company with over 150,000 distributors worldwide. They are headquartered in Greensboro, North Carolina. Market America employs over 400 people globally (including operations in Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, and Taiwan).
The company markets a wide variety of high quality products and services through independent distributors and unFranchise owners. These distributors and unFranchise owners have access to over 700 products and services that relate to several different industries. Their unFranchise business development system is a unique system combining franchising with direct sales and eliminating the typical high fees and geographical limitations of standard franchising.
Market Americas Health and Nutrition Store offers vitamins and other supplements including the Isotonix brand. The company also markets a variety of products including cosmetics, home and garden, personal care and pet care products.
Now let's look at some of the benefits associated with Market America:
First, it encourages E-Commerce and Internet Marketing.
Second, the company provides a website for online ordering.
Lastly, representatives earn money on sales and are rewarded for training other representatives.
But what about the compensation plan? Let's take a closer look at that now.
To get started, you must recruit two people. One on your left side and one on your right side. You then must qualify your business by purchasing 200BV worth of product, and then remain on a "transfer buy" of 50bv to 150bv each month. BV is approximately 80% per $1 spent. Example, $100 = 80 BV. Once your network begins to grow, your points start accumulating. Upon reaching certain points, or BV, on your left and right, you will start to receive commission checks.
So, do I really think Market America is built on product and powered by people? Maybe! The products are good. The compensation plan, I feel, could be better.
