MonaVie takes the approach that when you offer people a
drink, you are showing them you care. It is up to them to
decide how well they like it. You may remember Sam I Am
from the Dr. Seuss classic Green Eggs and Ham who insists,
"Try them and you may, I say." Some who tried this
acai-based liquid do not care for the taste, while others
enjoy it. So if you are giving away samples, which cost
you $40 as a distributor, you are taking a calculated risk.
Hopefully enough people will like it to want to buy it.
But buying it is expensive, with each bottle retailing for
$40, and a month's supply of four bottles costing $180.
This is probably why a large percentage of distributors
don't last in this MLM business. Selling such an expensive
nutritional supplement is not always easy, especially if
you are new to network marketing.
Once you are sold on the product, the 20% discount that
distributors receive may help persuade you to sign up. But
the discount might not add up to a good deal if you don't
sell MonaVie to others. Furthermore, the binary
compensation plan means you have to work to balance the
results of your sales recruits in order to share more of
the company's profits. If one side of your team sells $900
of product and the other side $2700, you make 50% of the
lesser volume, which would be only $450. Once you balanced
the sides and had two legs making $2700 each, your cut of
the profits would jump to $1400. With this kind of
compensation, the company is trying to reward you for and
motivate you to produce high sales volumes. But when a
distributor is trying to build up their team, the
commissions may be disappointing. In fact, it has been
reported that only 10% of the company's distributors
continue their efforts beyond three months.
Despite the naysayers, most people who have tried this
fruit-based supplement agree that it is a quality product.
Where some get hung up is the price and the marketing
structure that the company uses to sell the product and the
business opportunity. The prevailing advice is to go for
this opportunity if you truly believe in the product and
have some networking experience behind you. Otherwise you
may find you've just bought lots of expensive juice. Hope
that it does your physical health some good, since without
mastering network marketing, your financial well-being is
not very likely to benefit.
