The previous post is from someone whose website begins like this: "The girl who has been scammed 27 times tells you the bluntly honest truth about the Profit Lance system. Is it another scam? Or can you actually quit your 9-5 job and tell your boss to go shove it?"
Do you really want to take advice from someone who got scammed 27 times?! The old adage was once unfortunate but twice careless.......where does 27 rank?
I see from your website that you are with 60 Minute Money. You have hit the jackpot!
60MM is an ethical and professional group that really has traction in the market place. I joined 2.5 years ago and have been delighted at the rate of growth of my business. We made nearly GBP5,000 last month ( just under $ 10,000)and we see a great future.
The ingredient that most people miss is the work ethic. You need a great work ethic and a great attitude if you are to succeed. If you have these and the 60MM system you can expect to be successful if you keep at it.
Keep working and attending the sts. Without these you will wander off track.
Good luck with your business.

Hey makemoneyonline....easy there!!
A question asked is a question needing answering.
Hi franm1962 I guess from your signature you are a Herbalife distributor?
For those who dont know Herbalife........
Herbalife is a MLM program. It has a number of products aimed at health. The foremost being a slimming drink. This consists of powder that you mix with fruit juice. It is not like 'slimfast'. Slimfast is made with milk. In some cases this can make you feel ill after a while because of the lactose that is present in the milk, you can become 'lactose intolerant'. Hebalife is made with fruit/fruit juice.
I have tried the herbalife product and I found that I lost weight but also found that I was hungry a lot of the time.
Herbalife is also a MLM company. Which means that you are dealing in Uplines and Downlines. Basically, you enroll people into the program and you earn income based on a percentage of their sales.
There is a herbalife program in which you pay a few hundred pounds to get started and is internet based but I am not too sure of the details. In fact, the first contact I had with the business was when I replied to an advert on the web and received a phone call.
Being a MLM business it is a work form home program. As you can tell I looked hard at this business but decided it wasnt for me. Why?.....it felt like too much of a hit and miss affair because of the reliance on the efforts of others. However there are people earning a living from it.
Herbalife has also had its critics in the past. It is a few years now since I took an interest so what the critisism is like now , I do not know.
Google 'Herbalife distributors uk' or what ever part of the world you come from and you should find someone near you to whom you can call for information.
There is lots more to it but this is the basics.....

Good day,
Just expect to be buying allot of product upfront to be a living testimonial and then to market.
It isn't as easy as they make it out to be.
I met Mark Hughes a long time ago.

I use herbalife but wont sell it there at way to many distributors already and they are milking it for all they can. The products are great but I would rather just buy then have to get downline ect. Plus its MLM. MLm I have lost way to much money in. I lost over $4000 in biochoice and never made a penny after a year. All I have left now is a coffee cup to show for it. One heck of an expensive coffee cup.

Its a solid company, though, and there's a big market of people who want weight-loss products.
Some Herbalife distribution systems on the net are extremely evasive about the fact that they are promoting the HL opportunity. Herbalife has been criticized for teaching outdated marketing techniques like traying to recruit everybody you know.
I think HL has been a bit damaged, like Amway, by irresponsible distributors marketing in an unprofessional manner.
Still, a real solid, established MLM for people who want to go with a proven horse.

I don't really know how Herbalife is doing business now, but I know in the past (11 yrs ago) I almost got involved in Herbalife. I felt as though they were using "trickery" to get people involved, because they send me a booklet which did not really reveal any information, but when I called the number, I was told it would cost me $30 to receive the "information kit." He wouldn't give me any more information, but told me it was refundable if I didn't like the program. This consisted of a tape, and some samples. This is when I realized it was Herbalife. At that time they had the "green & beige" supplements, which the distributer gave me as a sample, and I was up for 2 days. I personally prefer to do business in a straightforward manner, rather than being sneaky, which is what I felt they were doing, but then again, I took the bait so it's my fault just as much as theirs.

Herbalife is a well established MLM company. The only thing that I don't like about Herbalife is that it markets similar products to what so many other MLM companies are selling... example is vitamins and weight loss products. While Herbalife has some great products, how do you sell all the competition that your products are better than Usana's, Amway, Reliv, Mannatech, etc.?
Herbalife can be done, but be prepared to have to have 150 or so people in your group before you see a check of $1000/month. If you are doing MLM, there are better companies out there in my opinion.
Best Wishes, Brian

I am not able too work due too disability & other health issues but I still wanted too create a little bit of extra income working from home, I logged on too a job search website here in Australia & I typed in work from home I entered my details into as many adds as possible as I wanted too research several different business opportunities. The calls started coming in thick & fast & at one point I was dealing with 3 different people from Herbal Life who wanted too sign me up but thankfully I was wise and didn't sign up too this program as I had a friend who tried Herbal Life.
My friend was having too constantly do the big sales pitch too people mainly face too face & call people just too try & keep the business viable & in the end she quit because she was spending more time outside the home which was not the idea in the first place, The funny thing is that they said in their adds that you don't have too harass or call anyone too make the business viable which is a total load of garbage this company is also robbing people of money just so they can find out about the business. If you want too get into a business you should not have too pay about $48.00 just so you can find out about a business as far as I'm concerned that's totally un-ethical & they are so stingy they don't even give you the full re-fund because they make you pay postage.
