That is too bad that you didn't get paid at all! Craziness. Our comp plan pays on all legs regardless. Love it!

About the product - I do hear good things, but I have not used it myself because I can get the antioxidant power from some of my own products that I use. I have an article that I would be willing to share with anyone who is interested in a study that was done on MonaVie, along with several other juices, comparing them to our supplement that is made from grapeseed and grapeskin extract. Just send me a PM with your email and I can pass it on.

Someone is buying the juice.

The majority is the distributors themselves, just like most companies.

I have a friend (that was in MonaVie) that had over 5000 people MORE in one leg than the other that he never got paid on. He still made a decent income ($50K)


I've been in a binary myself and although I did make some money, I will be the first to admit that there are much better comp plans.

My only gripe about MonaVie, is their price point.

That's what kills me. People in my company with that much volume average about $500,000/yr, with a "worst case" being $120,000/yr if they only made 4% (which is never the case since profit, higher bonus levels, enrollment bonuses, infinity bonuses and more are not included).

That's just really sad. Actually, it totally bugs the living daylights out of me...

Binaries are sooo enticing, until you run the numbers, (which is tricky to do).

I wonder how this will play out.

I just read where Oprah mentions MonaVie by name on her website saying she is suing those companies using her name and likeness with the whole acai berry thing.

Default I am a Monavie rep and have been with the co. for over 1.5 years.

I've been struggling the entire time. Couldn't get a bus. builder if my life depended on it.. All drinkers. My power leg has a volume of 350,000..Thats right thats 35k owed to me, which doesnt mean squwat..lol My lesser leg is barely breaking even with my one case a/ship.. So guess what? I'm quitting first week in Sept.

I did join Mandura a new juice with Acai, Mangosteen, Blueberry and Durian..

Its a one leg plan which means everyone and anyone that joins goes underneath you...I have over 4500 people under me now.its crazy and the juice tastes better than Monavie. You also get more juice for less money and you can buy one bottle at a time with NO penalties.

So I guess I'll see how that plays out

Anyone interested can email me.

Wow, that is what I have heard of binary pay plans...that most have huge strong legs but barely get paid because of the weak leg they are actually paid on. That is why I have never wanted to be in a binary...I have had several friends approach me about Mona Vie and all of them had similar experiences and are no longer with them.....some are now taking my 4Life's RioVida which is far more affordable ($60 for month supply) and also contains Transfer Factor which gives it so much more immune and health supporting benefits and overall much better value with a better pay plan. And that is interesting about Oprah....I too wonder how that will all play out.

MV is a huge company, they have done really well in their short time. Even though there are several thousand MV distributors that have left (I have several on my team as well) they are replacing those that have left probably even faster. I think they have a really good product although I think it is overpriced and the payplan isn't that great.

Default MV Distributors

My husband and I are MV distributors. We have done quite well. To better explain the binary system, your upline builds one leg for you, but you have to do the work to build the other leg. If you work the system provided by r3global, you will suceed. Real work is required. You must work it with the same intensity that you would a full time job.

With that said, we have found that the group of folks we have met in MV are awesome.

Hi,

I have noticed that the desirability of the product and the cost of the monthly autoship are important factors that people look at when deciding whether to join a network marketing company. I think that Mona Vie strengths may lie in marketing and distribution.
