My question is how do you really make money with Arbonne. Let's say you want to earn $6000 a month ...is seems almost impossible. If you are a DM for example with four consultants and you have a monthly Central RV of let's say 20,000 which sounds like a lot. That means you would only get a check for $1040. 20,000 x 65%(vol) X 8%, Sounds like a lot of work for $1040

It's kinda challenging to say exactly what you would make with $20K volume, because it depends on how/where the volume is coming from. (i.e., Central DM, 1st generation DM, 2nd generation DM, etc.)


Just quickly, with $20K volume you'd most likely be an Area Manager (and 1/2 way to Regional VP!), earning an EXTRA 6% (total of 14%), PLUS the opportunity to earn $200 or $400 bonuses.


You can see the break down of the all the levels, plus "average" commissions/bonues paid to the different levels at the www.arbonne.com (http://www.arbonne.com) website. Just look under Be Your Own Boss, SuccessPlan, and under 2004 Independent Consultant Summary.


Hope this helps!

I don't think as a DM you would make $6000 a month..... In the email you had sent me you asked if you could replace your income within one to two years. YES YES YES. It will take hard work and determination though. There are people who made RVP in less than 6 months and an RVP's pay is much more than i ever made with my old job!


It's all what you want to put into this. If you put into it a lot you will get a lot. If you put into it a little, you get a little. The suggested thing to do is 3-5 drop offs a week. And if you are doing the party route then do 6-10.


But its definately possible. I plan on making that money some day as I start getting more comfortable getting out of my shell.


Take care!

I agree with what Michele said! In addition, this is one of the few businesses that we can start out in with such a small investment of time & $$ and expect the phenomenal income it will generate. Having owned a store previously, you put in a lot more time & finances and you may see a reasonable return in 3-5 years. Arbonne allows us to make "Gangster Money" if only we stay at it. I was thinking just today that we need to find some charities & such to become a part of, after allwe can only spend so much before it is excess. I'm at the consultant level now but I know its on the way!!


If we consistently do the activity, we cannot help but rise to the top.


Good luck!!Edited by: Kiana's Mom
