Usana
 
My daughters boyfriend is looking at this as a side job. To me it has the look of a pyramid where he probably be selling people instead of a product and probably losing money and not making it.

Anyone have any experience with it.

Thanks,

Just google "usana" and "pyramid" and read.

Problem with these things as we all know is it's not about moving product more than it's about growing your network.

Many of them require a certain amount of revenue during a set time period to keep moving up the ladder. So what happens is people fall short of the goal one month and rather than lose their momentum they will buy product personally to maintain their quota.

They get you coming and going.

Used to work for a consultant who shared a building with one of these outfits.

They'd have recruitment meetings at night. The guy would make out a check to himself for thousands of $'s, photocopy it and leave copies strategically "hidden" in places like the front desk, the output tray of the copier etc...

Was kinda comical to see people fall for that crap.

I'm too busy with Amway to get involved but it sounds interesting.

I was going to switch to Usana from Arbonne, Intl., but I think I'll lose a few people in my network. ;)

Usana is especially popular with Chinese folks. It's a total Kool-Aid thing, much like Amway, Equinox or Herbal Life.
