Hello there.. After reading all the threads, it seems like there
are no FLP distributors around, so I think I should reply..
hmmm.. this is gonna be a long one..
Firstly, I wish to clarify that I have no intent to put any company
down, so I'll apologise first if anyone finds this offending.
Hmmm.. I think that the most the important 4 things behind any
company are:
1) Company
2) Product
3) Marketing Plan
4) Team
1) Let me touch on Forever Living Products as a company.
- FLP is currently in its 27th year of operations.
- FLP can be found in over 110 countries world-wide.
- FLP is a financially stable private company
- Forever Resorts, a sister company, owns more than 50 first class
resort properties around the world, in cash.
- FLP is the only MLM company in the world that pays bonuses based
on retail price (furthur illustration in the mareting plan)
- FLP is a 1-line production company. This means that we grow our
own aloe vera, we produce our own products and we distribute it
ourselves
- FLP holds many patents on our aloe vera and bee products, as well
as our nutritional supplements
2) Product
- FLP is the world's largest grower, manufacturer and distributor
of Aloe Vera, currently controls 92.5% of the world's market.
- FLP is the world's largest producer of bee products, ie, honey,
pollen, propolis and royal jelly, currently controlling about 60%
of the world's supply.
- FLP's aloe vera is 100% stabilised
- FLP's aloe vera is Halal and Kosher, and is the first company to
carry the International Aloe Science Council seal (visit
www.iasc.org for details of the council)
- FLP's aloe vera products range from aloe vera drinks to aloe vera
toothgel and shampoo to aloe vera skin care, aloe vera make-up and
aloe vera multi-purpose detergent, to aloe vera veterinary
spray
- For the complete product range, visit www.foreverliving.com
- Uses of products include Fat gain/loss, nutrition, daily use,
beauty, detox, anti-aging, water filtration
3) Marketing Plan (for simplicity, I'll just highlight 5
benefits)
- Group Volume: everything your business partner does is related to
you, to a certain extent that it is also fair to downlines
- No Reversion: no demotion even if your sales volume drops. most
importantly, your level of bonuses don't drop for the rest of your
life. (I understand that some companies don't demote distributors,
but once their sales volume drops, their % bonus drops. Not for us,
our don't drop)
- No Pass up: once a person is in your network, that person is part
of your group and the company will not take them out unfairly
- 2 months accumulation: you have 2 months to achieve your
promotions instead of 1 month
- Bonus calculation based on Retail price: Simply, you buy a
product at $7, sell for $10, earn $3 first. The company pays you
the % bonuses using $10. FLP is the ONLY company in the whole world
that pays bonuses based on retail price.
More than 90% of MLM companies use points, so the way to calculate
is to find out the average points for the company, usually about
0.5 to 0.6, so means that for a $10 product, the company uses $5-$6
to calculate your commission. FLP uses $10.
4) Team
Take FLP as Ministry of Education. Under MOE got many schools, each
school has the same PSLE paper and same 'O' Level papers, but why
do parents still wanna queue for "branded" schools? I think the
answer is in the school's system. Certain schools have "successful"
systems whereby a student has a higher chance of getting better
grades. So the same thing in FLP. There are many "systems" or what
we call teams, and each team has their own business strategy.
My team is Forever Jonathan Club. We are the largest, most
professional and most money making club in the whole of Singapore
and Malaysia. We have the most full-time distributors. I believe it
is because of our strategy.
I hope I manage to make it quite clear, cuz this is a very brief
summary. If anyone has any questions pls either email me
([email protected]) or call me at 9189 0275.
cheers!
