Search for Freedom
A question of Integrity
If I join a MLM company it’s because I want a reliable, long -term residual income. That means that it’s for the long term, no Quick-rich biz here!
But how I’m going to be sure that the company is going to last 10 or even 20 more years specially when so many company close-down after few years ?
Well, if a company has a proven track record of growth for over 5 years then you will have more chance to succeed. We have to be very careful with new company.
Of course in the first years it’s the best timing for the Sharks! But if the deal is only good because you got in on the ground floor, what will you say to people coming in a year or two from now?
This is the real test for people of integrity!
The good news is, that the company that I’m investigating has a track record of growth for more than 15 years so they have proven that they are more than just a gimmick or a fad.

Are Agel distributors selling Agel products or are they selling a few high-profile network marketing individuals?
Much is made of the fact that a few high-profile individuals in the network marketing industry joined as Agel distributors. Often this is used as the reason why people should join Agel.
Consider what is going to happen to Agel when those individuals decide they have made enough money with Agel and they move on to the next big opportunity. Since they are the reason why many people joined Agel, consider how many of Agel's distributors will follow them to the next big opportunity. Their illustrious and respected histories show that they have switched companies before, and therefore could do it again.
Decide what it will do to your residual income and to Agel's sales volume when that happens.
Those individuals can, with relative ease and amazing speed, build a large income with a new opportunity because they tend to recruit other experienced network marketers who believe in them and respect them. Can you do the same?
The key factor you need to decipher is: Where does the motivation and loyalty of most of Agel's distributors lie? Is it with the products, or is it with the individuals?
The fact that when you go to an agel presentation and the presenter only spends a grand total of about 2 minutes in a 60 minute presentation talking about 5 products shows how much they sell the product. They just sell a dream.
Tempted by power, prestige and money, plenty of otherwise honest and upstanding folks have abandoned their usual code of ethics in a moment of weakness.
I believe the company is selling the groundfloor opportunity more so than anything else. Look at how they've worked the launches and stuff in. Their is plenty of proof on the net that the company was taking sells and enrollments in March and April of 2005. But, the company didn't ship out the first products in May 2005 and didn't charge anyone who joined in March and April until then so that they could promote May 2005 as their 1st month. That helped them several ways as they are able to claim they made about $5 million in their 1st month even though that was actually 3 months of sales. It also allowed them a couple months more to say they are a ground floor opportunity. But, wait, it's not done yet, the company didn't do their official US launch until October 2005. What's that do? Well, it allows the company and it's presenters to go around until October of this year claiming they are technically under 1 year old when they are actually 18 months old as I speak.
Same thing was done in Canada, I know Canada has been in business for quite a while, but, they just sent out a press release claiming Canada just opened for business. I'm sure they've been doing that in many other countries as well. They open up for a few months and then wait a while to do an "Official Launch" in that country so that they can go around taking months off of the age of their company and at the same time gathering up a couple months of sales in that country to go around claiming an insane 1st month figure that was actually a couple of months combined.
This shows that they are doing everything they can to market the groundfloor opportunity as long as possible in every country they get into. That also allows the presenters to try to discourage people from doing their research on the company. The presenter will say each day, week, month you wait to sign up will push you further away from getting in a extremely profitable place. They say it much better than I just did. In other words they're basically making you feel like you're gonna miss something if you don't sign up that night. Thus making you feel that you have no time to do research on a company that many of us have quickly found out isn't what it's made out to be.
What you have mentioned may or may not be true but how many companies in the MLM industry have sold the amount of volume Agel did in just it's first 3 month's according to you? ZERO!
Also, who cares that the "top brass" will more than likely leave for the "next opportunity" one day?
Anyone who studies network marketing, knows that exponential growth comes by way of developing leaders to duplicate whatever system exists in that particular company...IF you get into this industry to merely exist and supplement some income, fine.
IF you get into this industry to build a dynasty, then you will adhere to the techniques and stratagies that these leaders have given you and your organization begins to duplicate your system.
People "step up" leaders are identified and new MLM superstars emerge!
Randy Gage, Randy Schroeder and Eric Worre aren't the only industry success stories around and they won't be the last...why place focus on something so trivial?
Lastly, what middle class family couldn't afford $120 a month to autoship these products unless they were debt laden, unfocused, etc.
It's been my experience that when people start overanalyzing things they do so to justify their fears...classic avoidance behavior!
I'm having a blast with this company right now and I would not give the last MLM company I worked with a half of a minute of my time because of the culture I was exposed to. They've been in business over 30 years and very few people make the kind of comissions that I'm seeing with Agel!
I personally know some of the rising stars in this company and $20K last month isn't bad for a couple who have only been with this company for 11 month's!
Think about it.
Of course you can make money, but at what price?
Misleading people is just not my cup of tea.
