Advocare Terminates 100,000 Distributors Leaves Network Marketing

For an update and opinions about the Advocare – FTC case click here.

 

MLM Attorney Kevin Thompson stated:

AdvoCare recently announced that it was doing away with its network marketing business model and instead shifting to a “direct to consumer” model. AdvoCare cites “confidential talks” with the FTC, saying that the FTC has taken issue with “how AdvoCare compensates its Distributors.”

Instead of taking their chances with litigation against the FTC, the owners have decided to completely bail out, going for the more certain outcome where they get to keep their profits instead of losing them to the government.

 

This all assumes that there’s a real threat from the FTC, which I’m not convinced that there was. I could be wrong, but something seems fishy.

With the exception of Herbalife, I’ve never heard of the FTC doing a confidential investigation. Usually they storm the gates, guns blazing. I know they have the ability for confidential investigations, I’ve just never personally seen one in our industry.

There’s part of me that wonders if AdvoCare initiated these talks with the FTC so they could “blame the government” as a pretext for these changes.

 

I’m probably wrong, but there’s just something off about the message below.

The regulatory landscape has not changed at all since 2016. In fact, it’s improved. The FTC has relaxed quite a bit since the election. AdvoCare was not led by fools. They seemed to have had a good in-house attorney, they had a healthy focus on product…by all indications, they were ok. This sudden shift, due to a “confidential discussion with the FTC” seems bizarre.

It’s worth mentioning that there’s not a single expression of gratitude to the field that built up their company to its heights today. They deserved better.

 

The advocare press release:

AdvoCare International announces a revision of its business model from multi-level marketing to a direct-to-consumer and single-level marketing compensation plan.

AdvoCare has been in confidential talks with the Federal Trade Commission about the AdvoCare business model and how AdvoCare compensates its Distributors. The planned change will impact Distributors who have participated in the multi-level aspect of the business. Those who currently sell only to customers will not be impacted and there will be no impact on Preferred Customers or retail customers’ ability to purchase products.

“Over the years, we have made many changes to the AdvoCare policies as the regulatory environment has shifted. Based on recent discussions, it became clear that this change is the only viable option,”

says Patrick Wright, AdvoCare’s Chief Executive Officer.

“Regardless of the model, we remain steadfastly committed to providing our high-quality nutritional products to our loyal customers who are seeking to live healthier lives. We stand behind the integrity and values of this company and will continue to work with our dedicated Distributors to provide the best customer service to ensure AdvoCare products are available for decades to come.”

The company gave notice to its more than 100,000 Distributors on May 17 that, effective July 17, 2019, AdvoCare will revise the business model to a single-level distribution model, paying compensation based solely on sales to direct customers.

The Retail and Preferred Customer programs will remain intact with discounts ranging from 20 – 40 percent. This new business model will allow the company to explore new and innovative ways to bring their premium products to market.

“AdvoCare Distributors have been helping change lives since its founding in 1993, by providing premium wellness products to those looking to reach new health and fitness goals – and that will not change,” says AdvoCare’s former CEO and current Chairman of the Board Reid Ward. “We’re proud of the growth of our Preferred Customer program we launched in 2016, which has grown to almost 400,000 discount customers. We look forward to reaching even more customers with a new business model.”

  1. Well, sad news again. But 100 000 distributor after 38 years seems to me not a very good result anyway.
    Network Marketing is full of up and down. Life is life, the most important is to stay faithful to your Dream and your team and quickly to take a look around, there is a big choice of good company.
    Good luck and good choice for all !!

  2. As so many have said… sad for the people in the field that have worked hard to build this brand. Sad in many ways for the industry as a whole.
    I can remember the feeling when I was terminated from my corporate gig after 19 years with the same company. That’s when I decided that I never wanted to be in the situation where my whole income depended on a corporate job. Fell in love the the MLM concept and feeling grateful to have landed with a company that has stability and growth and really cares for the field. And it amazes me that our billionaire CEO greats me by name and with a big smile and hug when I see him at our global conference. I can’t imagine what that would feel like to basically have your business and income taken away from you.
    Yes it does sound pretty fishy.

    1. Your comment doesn’t make since. You stated that you never wanted a to be in a situation with a corporate job. I hate to tell you this…you still work for someone.
      MLM is not a entrepreneurial opportunity. When your company CEO (your boss) has had enough…ITS END GAME!

      1. So, your comment indicates that it is still a job/ If MLM is not a legal and legit business model then why does it get all the benefits and write offs on their taxes as any other business. It is a similar contract when you open a franchise. There is a policies and procedures guideline there, that must be followed, including expensive franchise fees. So, is that also not a legit business model too?

        1. Paul, MLM is absolutely NOT a franchise. Franchise law is much more all encompassing and regulated than the MLM industry as you can clearly see given this example here. Policies and procedures by most MLM companies allow them to change their compensation plans (even for work already performed) at any time, as well as dismiss distributors and/or cut off their compensation at their own discretion. Read an actual franchise disclosure booklet (more like volume) and then compare it to the P and P of even major MLM companies. The first comment was right. You still work for someone, and they can still take away your job.

  3. What some of us how found out through the rumor mill is that the top distributorship was fraudulently recruiting in their down line for quite a while. Some in corporate new and turned a blind eye and it got reported to FTC and the hammer got dropped in those ‘secret meetings’.

    1. This has opened my eyes as to what can happen to good people without knowing everything about their coworkers.
      Do not give up there are other companies looking for employees .
      I just started working as an marketing executive in a company that makes you feel rewarded every single day. We have plenty of room for new executives when and if your ready to receive more information.

  4. Look, the smartest thing for Advocare reps and their downlines to do is go to other like MLM’s and make a deal with them to move their whole team over. There are some amazing perks other companies will offer when this kind of thing happens and bottom line they aren’t going to make money by staying with Advocare. I do not rep any MLM but my friend was once the VP of sales for a large similar MLM. She got scooped up when her former MLM shut down. She brought over 200 distributors to the new company and they were all given quite a package. It’s really too bad and I just hate to hear anyone getting blindsided.

    1. Coming from a very successful network marketer in a very stable and successful company…… awfully sad what has happened to these good hard working people here 🙁 but understand this. A good solid company does not “cut deals” for bringing a group of people. A good, solid, ethical company… everybody starts the same. Just sayin…

    2. This is awful. If anyone would like to join me @ Herbalife you can contact me. My page is Justinedougher. goherbalife.com I would love to help you. My store in Mentor-on-the-Lake oh is doing great.

    3. I feel so bad for everyone effected and send my sincere condolences. I have been active for many years with a similar product related Social Marketing Company and have built more than 200 people in my personal group. Our company has been around more than 50 years and is very solid, but I can’t even begin to imagine what you are going thru and if there is any way I can be of help or my company can, please let us know 1-800-429-2677???

  5. Feel bad for those who worked so hard to build their business and clientele only to get cut.

  6. Advocare uses Sucralose which has now been linked to leukemia. Woke people won’t use it. I think their products especially Spark taste like crap kool aid and are poison. So better to go and find another company.

    1. I am a Team Beachbody coach and we offer plant based products with NO ARTIFICIAL ANYTHING! Shakeology and the Performance line of products are completely natural using ingredients from around the globe. I have used these products for a few years now and Shakeology in particular, has changed my health in more ways that I can say.

  9. Sorry to hear, for all the reps involved. I have long abandoned the product part of the industry. I am crypto all the way people are literally making a fortune in these crypto programs. Everyone makes money. Nobody quits and we have found that people can create $200 to $500 daily income in 6 months or less. Of course there is no guarantee but I am seeing numbers like that routinely

  10. My deepest sympathy goes out to all the hard-working networkers of Advocare who are now affected by this. I sincerely hope that in the end it will be better than ever before for all those affected. Love Miriam Greefhorst

      1. I’m in the mood to engage… Are you saying ALL network marketing opportunities are a ‘scam’, and therefore every single person that is, has ever been, or ever will be involved with one is a vulture? 16M people at any given moment IN an MLM…? Are just the Advocare people exempt from this label for some reason or another?

        My 2 cents… the overwhelming majority of Advocare (and every other network marketing structured organization) are honest, honorable, and trustworthy people that are trying to improve their lives and those of their family, their colleagues, and their customers by providing a service and/or quality product that the believe (d) in enough to put not only their name and reputation, but the future of those they care for most on the line.

        I feel for them… Advocare seemed like a solid company. So does the one I’m with, and they aren’t even close to the track record that Advocare has/had. Gives one pause… for sure… but I am not dissuaded because you can’t build a $178B a year industry… 20X the size of the NFL… on smoke and mirrors. Rock stars will land on their feet…. either way. There are even better opps out there for serious entrepreneurs in ANY business. My own is FULL of big earners that dropped significant incomes that took years to build to take their current position… and their isn’t a regret among them. So… if I were an Advocare distributor… i’d stand back up, shake off the dust… and start thinking of the massive opportunity to switch horses in the middle of the stream… WITHOUT losing anything in the process… since that has already been taken away from them unilaterally by some govt and C suite decision-makers that came to an ‘understanding’ that involved sacrificing 100,000 loyal people’s residuals to save their own corporate futures.

        Opportunity is everywhere… if you’re a serious contender, you’ll find the right opportunity and end up making more than you were. Of those 100.000 distributors, 90% (industry average) are customers saving money on products they’d buy anyway at full price in CVS/Walgreen’s, were it possible. The other 10%? They just got their ‘free agency’ to walk away with their networks intact into a field full of more robust opportunities everywhere they look. They’ll find them.

        No WONDER so many are out there trying to get their attention… I’d take every single one I could get… after all, THEY WILL KNOW whether what I’m involved with looks like a winner or not. And even once-bitten, twice-shy… you can still make more money jumping into something experiencing explosive growth than you can licking wounds.

        Good luck and God bless!

        1. I agree with you on on pretty much everything you said, though I agree with those who are frowning on the predatory nature of those pouncing on the Advocare reps (who, 9.9 out of 10, only about 1% even know this article even exists). Ask any top leader in the MLM industry such as Ray Higdon, Eric Worrie, Simon Chan, Holton Biggs, etc. Acting like a vulture circling around a wounded rep who’s company screwed them over is 100% the wrong thing to do! Industry leaders hate this with a passion because it is one of the main reasons why the MLM industry has had such a bad rap for many. It’s a creepy practice that turns off more people than who it encourages. MLM is network marketing, meaning reps/consultants should be networking with people, not pouncing on them to join their team without even knowing if they even want to leave their company.

          I hate seeing any consultant lose their income or business, regardless of what company they are in. I don’t believe in trying to steal consultants away from other companies or downlines. All that does is create a toxic community culture within the company and team. I’ve been changing how I run my MLM business after listening to Simon Chan’s MLM Nation, Ray Higdon’s, and Eric Worre’s podcasts on iTunes (also on Stitcher for those who use an Android device) and have seen a big difference! Heck, I’ve been getting more sales and new consultant signups just from having conversations with people about animals and music. Nothing like getting a $100 order that resulted from a conversation about how much compassion a mouse can have and how they will help a cage mate raise their babies. I’ve gotten orders from posting recipes made with products my company sells, same with posting tips and helpful hints. I avoid posting my company link on posts and tweets. I get so much more interaction and interests doing things this way compared to pouncing on people to join my company or buy my products.

  13. This news is such a shame. Hardworking people who have built lives around this company should not be treated like this. Our Company is booming and is built for distributors by distributors. Our products are cutting edge and life changing. I look forward to helping as many people as I can. Mike Dew

  14. I am so sorry for your losses and sorry for the black mark this puts on all MLM’s. You all must be devastated. I have been very successful with an MLM company for 50 years now and can attest to the fact that, like with any profession, there are some companies with integrity and some without. I am a professor and love the opportunity of working with good products in conjunction with my academic field. I hope those in Advocare who were successful in MLM and want to continue to do so, do some Due Diligence and find one of these good long-standing reputable companies. They are there.

  15. This is not factual information. As a distributor for AdvoCare I suggest that anyone who wants FACTS go to the source and not some random people.

  16. You are all missing the point.

    The Advocare situation should be eye opening to you all. When you work for someone, they control your outcome …not you.

    MLM is NOT a entrepreneurial opportunity. When your MLM company CEO (your boss) has had enough…ITS END GAME! If you really want to control your own destiny, start your OWN business.

  17. You are all missing the point.

    The Advocare situation should be eye opening to you all. When you work for someone(MLM), they control your outcome …not you. Don’t be fooled by thinking you are a entrepreneur, the reality is, you have a boss ,just like everyone else.

    If you really want to control your own destiny, start your OWN business.

    1. Jerry D is correct that when you work in NM that you are subject to decisions of the corporation’s leadership. That is why you research them and know their true exit strategy before jumping in bed. That is also true when working for bricks and mortar…perhaps even moreso. I seriously question his suggestion that starting your own company as being protected any better… I have done all three. There is always a risk vs reward.

      Send me a text (214) 282-1503 if you would like to explore an opportunity that is a category creator. It addresses three separate $Billion market segments with the same solution. This being in a post risk environment, yet w/ plenty of pre-saturation market potential.

      I am also willing to talk you through which is the best for you out of all three possibilities.

  18. I’m so sorry for the Advocare distributors. This is a huge blow. Don’t give up on the network marketing industry there are good companies out there that are vigilant in making sure their company is compliant. This is one of the best industries to be in. I have been in 4 companies and found one I can be proud of and my downline and I can all be successful in. Do you research in finding a company that has a great comp plan that pays at least 50% to it’s distributors, no compromise products, has a team spirit with a feeling of community, has at least been in business for 7 years (no start ups), is still in momentum, and has integrity. I found it and you can too.

  19. Kevin, this is indeed an unexpected and difficult blow to many thousands of AdvoCare reps, and I agree that the way AdvoCare made the announcement was insensitive toward its reps and poorly considered. But there’s far too little hard information available yet, so you should not be tossing speculative conspiracy theories around. In fact, the FTC does conduct confidential negotiations and settlements; I have handled several over the years.

    1. Read the statement again. I’m aware that the FTC can initiate confidential investigations. It’s not their typical modus operandi. AdvoCare’s decision to completely fold without taking their chances is akin to the captain saving his or her skin first before the boat sinks. The lack of effort is appalling. They were in an enviable position compared to the vice grip the FTC had on Vemma, FHTM and just about every other pyramid scheme case they’ve initiated. AdvoCare had the benefit of time to prepare and they still folded. It’s pitiful.

  20. Shame on you Advocare! You left so many people in the lurch! If you are a distributor, don’t give up on network marketing, as it’s the best industry in the world! We’ve been in four companies until we found the right one and are very successful. Here’s what you need to look for: first, and foremost, a company with high integrity; a company that’s been around at least seven years (no start ups); a comp plan that pays at least 50%; no compromise products and products that are unique; a community where everyone helps each other; leadership with vision and experience in this industry. Good luck! We’re here to help!

    1. Its a sad subject that we have to speak on, that so many people are going to put in a position of having to work multiple jobs because of this dramatic change. All the people who were working for this company and are now having to find other ways to support their family. They all worked so hard to get where they are at and now in a blink of an eye it is all gone. I guess we never thought about how it would effect everyone in the long run. I guess all we did was sit back and think about ourselves and not who helped build your company. TO THE PERSON THAT DECIDED TO MAKE FAKE PEOPLE UP FOR THEIR DOWNLINE JUST TO PUT A DOLLAR IN YOUR POCKET. HOW DO YOU SLEEP AT NIGHT. YOU MUST MAKE YOUR FAMILY PROUD.

  21. It would not surprise me,(given what happened to Mannatech years ago) if the FTC issued some kind of threat to Advocare, on the other hand, given my experience in MLM over the last 40 years, it would also not surprise me if the company just decided to screw it’s associates and close down for whatever reason.

  23. This is just Scam to stop paying the people who
    Helped build this scam business . They Paid Drew Bree to tell you how good there product was if it was that good it would be in stores for sale. I would hate to say how many people lost money thinking they we going to get rich selling this product

      1. Is it possible the that the company was actually dealing with the new DSA over site board that is approved by the FTC to be a mediator between the mlm companies that tries to help companies comply with new FTC regulations. Many company’s just are not able to comply due to their business models. The CEO of my company is on that board.

  25. Always sad when that happens to reps.

    However, I have heard of 3 young people that have died unexpectedly and the common factor was that they all had recently started on Advocare products…. within a 6 month time frame.

  26. If any of you are thinking of a different business outside of Health & Wellness, why not try a company with lots of room to grow, a price point everyone can afford, and isn’t going anywhere! I’ve built an awesome team that understands the benefit of working together. I’d love to talk with any of you willing to be successful again.

  27. So sorry this happened to so many hard working people! i’ve Been with a Leader in Network Marketing for 13 years and I believe it’s the way of the future. Don’t give up -just do your research and find a company with high integrity, been around at least 7 years ( 17 years for company I’m with) this, a company plan that pays at least 50%, has no compromise products that are unique and scientifically proven beneficial, a supportive community helping each other and leadership with a vision and experience in this industry. We’re here to help you!

  28. When I first read the FTC was involved I agree something was off and a red flag of concern was raised that ALL network marketers should pay attention to. What crossed my mind initially as a possible issue was actually mentioned in this article and has to do with the recruiting and how they were paid.
    What are the chances someone got mad about others cheating their system for the bonuses and being recognized as “Leaders to Follow” while those building organically struggled.
    Now for those who may not follow what I’m talking about let me make it very clear. If the Policy says you must be 18 yrs old it means your “dog” can not have an account with a pre-paid credit card. It also means you can not cheat the system to get the bonuses by creating “Dummy” accounts.
    IF it was a Whistleblower who brought it to the attention of the FTC good for them. My only comments are I hope they went to the company compliance department first for a possible resolution. The second thing is I don’t think everyone should be punished for the wrong doings of a select group of individuals if it was in fact the case. For the Reps who went all in I’m sorry this has happened to you.
    I walked away from one company due to deception and promised myself I’d never let another person’s actions or inactions take an opportunity in this industry away from me ever again.
    Finally, if you’re promoting a health product… Don’t make claims or use disease names or you’ll have the FDA involved too.
    Just do it RIGHT for ALL of us.
    P.S. The recruiting being done in the comments is disturbing.

  30. A door doesn’t close unless a better one opens . Let me offer a smooth transition for the right person . Let’s have lunch and interview each other . It’s hard now but in 90 days you will be glad you did . Serious full timer only please

  31. I am sorry that this has happened to all the people who have invested their talents and time with this company. The company that I am a part of was established by affiliates for affiliates. They know from experience how to treat their team members. Our company has cut a lot of the overhead so that their affiliates benefit. Their integrity and commitment to excellence shows in the exponential growth since the company started two years ago. If you would like more information, I am here to help!

  33. Changes happens all the time. This one sucks for Advocare reps. If I could help any Advocare reps find alternatives. Feel free to contact me. Adriel of GreenEvol.com

  34. This is so sad and alarming on many levels. I started with Advocare and got out for various reasons. Glad II made that decision now. I retired with FEDEX, and now doing well with Zilis Ultra Cell. I am sharing with many, and enjoying every day of it. Contact me for more information. Thank you

  35. Wow this must be awful for people who have put their heart, soul and trust into a company which by all accounts led their distributors to believe all was well and moving forward. After 22 years with the same MLM company I sure can sympathize with what some if not all Advocare people are going through. Many on here are offering up their deal as the next safest sure bet to move along and earn income etc. My company has been successful for over 21 years , many of those spent doing tons of “real” science based research on our flagship product(s) two main ones. I’m not going to make promises here where people are surely jaded and hurt. What I will point to is that we have a product and I can say this with full honesty and knowledge which has to be and will be marketed via MLM as it would never sell off a shelf anywhere. It requires distributors who understand the basic premise underlying how the product works and what it does for people and their health. I really get tired of both health companies in traditional business and MLM companies who make many health claims and of course say they have “real science” when in fact they have nothing any true medical scientist or doctor (MD’s) would sanction. If anyone out their from Advocare or any other MLM company would like to be part of a growing yet very solid well run company with a product that is backed by over 54 double-blind studies published in respected medical journals, over 44 Method of Use Patents for example method of use in the treatment of…….many different immune related diseases, Health Canada & FDA recognition (which is positive) listed in the USA & Canadian MD’s drug guides, used in USA veterans’ hospitals, and given GRAS recognition by the FDA (Generally Recognized As Safe) and has been used over the last 22 years by thousands of people for preventative purposes and many. many ill people who’ve been very positive impacted using these two products. Of course we also have a line of other add on natural health products which help open doors for distributors, all of which are North American and of the utmost high quality. Before I go on let me mention that our 2 flagship products which are the result of over 40+ years of clinical research in an outstanding university medical research center (not some unknown lab or garage) recognized world wide and are manufactured I a pharmaceutical setting in Idaho. I didn’t say pharmaceutical company I said a pharmaceutical level facility, top notch. This may sound too hard to believe but we will put up evidence of what I’ve mentioned any time someone would like to see the research. This along with a unilevel plan that has dynamic compression and pays very well at all levels, a customer acquisition program which will pay those who wish to sell only rather than build downlines and a professional health practitioners’ plan where health professionals can market our products to their patients (customers) and earn $’s that way. After 22 years with my company with the marketing team and very ethical ownership I would not hesitate to invite anyone here, anyone who wants long term growth financially and a product you can be sure is bullet proof. Our company believes in treating our distributors very well financially with pay plan, tremendous performance bonuses, longterm vision of growth in the USA and around the world. Again so sorry to hear what many people go through in this industry with some companies. Give us a look, bring your team…you will not be disappointed. This is my full-time income, my life and I stand to recommend it to anyone. My number is 705-930-1315 phone or text and I will gladly share where we have been and where our management, some of the top, very respected people in this industry are taking us. All the best to Advocare folks and as someone else pointed out don’t let this steal THE DREAM you had. It is still here, still possible.

  36. As a distributor for AdvoCare, I can tell you that AdvoCare is an amazing company. A company that has never led anyone wrong. I’ve been with AdvoCare since 2004, and it’s an enormous family of integrity.

    You can never believe any type of media coverage. Just go to the source if you’re looking for answers. I personally wouldn’t take information at face value, especially if the source has never been a part of AdvoCare.

    1. Is it possible the that the company was actually dealing with the new DSA over site board that is approved by the FTC to be a mediator between the mlm companies that tries to help companies comply with new FTC regulations. Many company’s just are not able to comply due to their business models. The CEO of my company is on that board.

  37. I am so sorry to hear this. Those affected must be stunned and hurt right now. If anyone would like to join me at NewULife please contact me. I would love to help you! My page is ForeverYoungDentonCounty.NewULife.com

  38. Is it possible the that the company was actually dealing with the new DSA over site board that is approved by the FTC to be a mediator between the mlm companies that tries to help companies comply with new FTC regulations.

    There are many company’s that will never be able to have something north of 60% of revenue coming from real customers that have no connection to the compensation plan and Rep’s who have 10 or more real customers. Companies that don’t manufacturer their own product and pay another manufacturer to produce it, end up with products that priced to high to keep long term customers. So they end up as self consumption models where the Rep’s are buying most of the products. The FTC is coming down on this type of company.

  39. The people who built this company, who gave everything… without them Advocare would be nothing! Will never use your products again!

  40. Well 18 years ago my wife approached me about a wellness company at the time we just wanted safer products in our home or I should say she wanted safer products in our home… my mind went right to Amway or that kind of model… even though we were not looking for an income I told her no. Did not really put much thought into my no.. just said no. Luckily she did not listen to me on where we should shop as she never asked my permission before, why should I have a say now! She decided to try building a business, again I said it would not work and she replaced both of our six figure incomes and for the last 18 years we have been helping people side by side.. have not lost any money, hurt anyone or lost anyone else’s money. I am not going to try and figure out some clever way to get you to hear about the company I work with… I will say this,.. never did I imagine I would work from home, remember I said NO! Would have been the worse NO in my life had my wife listened to me! Give a call if you want to hear more my name is Lance Smith 303-981-7183

  42. My heart hurts hearing about Advocare yesterday. I know there are thousands of lives being impacted by this news.

    With that being said, I would love to talk to any of you about this incredible opportunity with Arbonne that has completely changed my life this past year. We have over 300 products ranging from nutrition, beauty, skincare, and everything in between. You can start making money ASAP and rebuild your future for you and your family.

    Just know that there is a company out there with a huge passion for their consultants and are committed to doing what is right. Arbonne has been a company for 40 years and is not going anywhere.

    We would love to welcome you with open arms and love ?? #bestgigever #40yearsstrong

  44. To all Advocare distributors your prayers has been answer.I would love to have you all on my team. I have a home for your experience VIST MY website Drewjackson1.iamlimu.com or call me at( 318) 541- 2755

  45. To all my fellow evolved economy visionaries…may be take a moment of silence. Advocare did more than eliminate it’s MLM structure….it left thousandsof distributers stranded wondering how to pay their bills. My heartfelt sympathy to those affected by this move. If you are looking for a safe home with people who “get it”, let’s talk.

  46. This makes me so sad. I just spent the weekend with my company at our global conference and it shows how much they care for all their consultants. We are about helping change others lives and know they would never do anything to tear us down. Don’t give up on your dreams. There is amazing companies out there. I am a Area Manager for one!! We take care of each other like family. If anyone is looking for a place where your family and where the top reach down to help contact me. I can help show you what it’s like to have a company treat you like family!

  47. All very sorry to hear about this shift. 100k people out of work for any reason is a tragedy. The right to earn and provide is one of the most basic we have. I want to tell you that there are opportunities out there. Our company is a startup, and in the Telecommunications/Ride-share business. If you need a position we are open. The company is Vibe Direct, the ride share is a service called Vibe Ride. To help I had to advertise a little. Sincerely I have been where you are and hope whatever company you land at you find someone that is as dedicated to you as you are to them. Business loyalty is getting harder to come by.

  48. It’s really sad to see an established company leave its loyal members dead in the water for reasons that seem a little suspicious.

    Obvously it’s not for everyone but, have you considered joining forces and starting your own company? I imagine you would be quite the powerhouse team!

    If the idea interests you, give us a call at 702 550 7835 and ask for Andrew, I would be honored to help you under these unfortunate circumstance. We can provide you with extensive MLM software consisting of corporate web site with shop, and distributor replicated web sites with full featured Back Office, backed by a 30+ year MLM software company. At present we will give Avocare leaders as much as 100% off the initial set up fee for a straight forward compensation plan, All you will need to pay is the monthly hosting fees and add your own products.

  49. The people on here offering options aren’t piranhas, maybe they are just people that care about others that have lost their livelihood! Some of us are with companies and are doing well and are just trying to help. Don’t be so quick to judge people you don’t know.

  50. Such sad news for all those involved, I hope you all find other companies to grow with. I’ve been with a Forever Living for the last 4 years, if anyone would like help to find out more about Forever then please contact me.
    I am also a health coach so if I can help in any other way then do please get in touch – free support and advise ?
