So, you’ve got a can of Efusjon Energy Drink in one hand and your computer mouse in the other; you’re drinkin’ and surfin’…trying to find out the truth about this the Efusjon Energy Club. The drink tastes great, but does the company leave an aftertaste in your mouth?
Will Efusjon, This Baby MLM, Grow Up To See It’s Adulthood
Efusjon has had a crazy year full of ups and downs. It came on strong; growing like wildfire in it’s pre-launch phase all the way until their fateful “Facebook Application Launch” in July of 2009. Then SCREEEEEEECH! (That was the sound of the breaks on Efusjon’s skyrocket to the top of the MLM game). For months, Efusjon distributors had been touting the release of this Efusjon Facebook Application as the second coming…something that had “never been done before in MLM”. Many distributors were telling their prospects that this application was going to “flood their matrix” with new distributors.
Now I will say that, Efusjon’s corporate top dogs never approved this strategy, but it went on for months anyway. Alas, the success of the Facebook app was not to be. Nobody’s matrix was flooded with new distributors from this new app. It was just an app. No magic MLM success machine. Just a nice app from which people could enroll distributors on Facebook. Ho-hum. Because the hype was so strong, and the failure so big, this was the beginning of the descent of this company’s popularity in my opinion.
The Efusjon Energy Club Comp Plan
This started out to be a quite a well-paying comp plan, with a maxtrix configuration and a large overlap volume commission. Basically, the company requires a distributor to enroll three more distributors in order to start earning commissions. While this is still true, the amount you earn and the way you earn commission has changed multiple times in the past 12 months.
Many distributors who started out receiving massive commissions, 4.5% on personal enrollees and 4.5% on overlap commissions (with the company’s promise that this level of commission would never change) were greatly disappointed (to say the least) when Efusjon went back on their word. They cut the commissions on overlap volume significantly (down to 1.25%). Distributors who were very successful and making a great income saw it cut so significantly, that downlines began to collapse and distributors started dropping left and right.
In fact, Efusjon has since changed their comp plan several more times to try to recoup –upping the overlap to 1.5%, then again to 2.25%, adding various bonus possibilities and other incentives. Sadly, that recoup hasn’t yet happened. They’ve created quite a decent comp plan now but it’s a big question mark as to whether they can ever recover from the enormous fallout of distributors and the bad tastes in their mouths.
Is There a Future for Efusjon Energy Club?
Ever since their failed Facebook Application and the massive comp plan changes, they have slowly but surely dropped in growth. You can barely even find them anymore on Alexa.com.
If you’re not familiar with Alexa, this website keeps track of the traffic on all the websites out there and ranks them. Basically, if your MLM doesn’t have an Alexa score, you should be getting your running shoes on and heading for the door. On the other side of the coin, if you hit the top 100,000 websites on the internet Alexa’s site, you are officially “on the radar” and hugely popular and significant.
Efusjon, which was once well into that top 100,000 group, has dropped off in a big way and has been well below that 100,000 group for some time.
So, what does all that tell you?
Well, what it tells me is that Efusjon is either suffering from the bumps and bruises of their first year of life and will dust themselves off and start gaining again, or they’re toast. There’s really no way to know for sure without a crystal ball. Do your research. Trust your gut. If you love the product and want to take a flyer with a fledgling company that’s had both super highs and major bumps, go for it. Just go in with your eyes wide open.
Just In Case…
I urge you to have a Plan B brewing in case things go south. Most important, make sure you have great marketing skills, which you would need for SUCCESS IN ANY MLM.

Well, folks, another network marketing company is born. And you’re thinking: Ho-hum Amy…say something interesting! Well, how about this: Guess what folks, the ONLY network marketing company to deal in the gold and silver coins is born! … That’s a little more exciting I think.
So, what does this mean to you, Mr. and Ms. MLM? Well, if you’re reading this article, I’m guessing it’s because someone told you about Numis, or you read about it somewhere and want more information on this company. Is Numis a scam or is Numis a legitimate MLM organization that you can finally be successful in? Okay, let’s talk turkey… um, I mean gold and silver.
The Marketplace
Well, if you haven’t had your head buried too far in the sand, you know that the prices of gold and silver have recently skyrocketed. You also must be aware that these two precious metals are the actual MONEY behind your paper money. This is the stuff the entire world economy is based upon.
The Language of Coins
Why numismatic graded, modern issue coins? And more importantly, WHAT THE HECK DOES ALL THAT MEAN?
Let’s decode this one step at at time:
Numismatic – Numismatic simply refers to the study or collection of currency. In this case, coins.
Graded coins – This simply means the value of the coins are based not only on the content of gold and silver but also on their rarity, demand of collectors and the condition of the coin.
Modern Issue – This refers to coins issued from 1985 on… But mainly this phrase is used to contrast the collecting of rare and vintage type coins, which is a whole other animal.
The Company & It’s Leaders
Numis is run by a team of solid leaders who have ample experience and success both in the Network Marketing and Direct Sales Industry. Although Ian Cordell, Christopher Kent and Jake Kevorkian founded the company, the face you will see all over Numis is that of Expert Numismatist (what a title!), Mike Mezack. This guy really knows his stuff.
The Products
The flagship product of Numis is the MS70 2009 Silver American Eagle coin. MS70 is the highest grade a coin can achieve – nearly perfect. They also sell the MS69 2009 Sliver American Eagle (valued significantly less than the MS70) and the extremely valuable MS70 1997 Silver American Eagle coin. They have many additional coins available, but these are the ones they highlight most.
The Comp Plan
The comp plan for Numis is solid. It’s basic binary type plan that pays you several different ways with many substantial bonuses that are not difficult to achieve. This is in addition to the commissions you earn from sales volume. When you evaluate this, or any MLM, always make sure that there’s emphasis on the product, not just on recruiting.
Training
Numis is one of the few Network Marketing Companies I’ve seen that offers substantial training…not only about their products, but about how to market them as well.
Summary …or… Should You Join Numis Network?
Well, frankly, I can’t see one good reason not to join Numis Network… Unless you just don’t want to earn serious money in MLM and are content with your current lifestyle (yeah, right!).
My reasons:
- It’s the ONLY MLM out there in the very hot market of Gold & Silver coins
- Gold & Silver are trending really high in our economy right now
- It’s a solid company, with solid leaders with a proven track record of success.
- Great comp plan; easy to earn.
- If you have to have a garage full of auto-ship product, wouldn’t it be great if it was money?

Okay, if you’ve been researching articles on Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing, it’s probably because you’re thinking of joining, or already have and want to know: Is Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing a scam or a legitimate MLM business? Good question.
FHTM: Scam or Legit? 
Now just because FHTM is an MLM, it doesn’t mean it’s a scam. There are a great many legitimate MLM businesses out there giving a tremendous amount of people great opportunities to build their own business, and make a lot of money… Opportunities to make great incomes that they wouldn’t have with a regular work-for-the-man type of job. However, there are a few unsavory companies out there disguised as MLM organizations. So here’s what you need to know in order to evaluate this company correctly to see if FHTM really is a scam or a legitimate MLM organization.
How Can I Tell If It’s a Scam?
First, a legitimate MLM offers a product or service. That may seem fairly obvious to you but many of the pyramid scam type companies out there sort of float the idea of a product or service out there, but mainly are just moving money around from one level of distributor to another. They kind of skate over the importance of their product in general. So, does Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing actually offer legitimate products or services. Yes they do.
Okay, let’s look at some more scam criteria.
The next, and most important thing you need to know to understand whether or not you’ve got a pyramid scam on your hands is this: Does the company focus more on recruitment than on their products? The whole purpose of a pyramid scam is to get you to sign up and get your money and then use you to recruit others and get their money, etc. The entire purpose of a legitimate MLM company is to move product. In this way, the MLM creates a network of distributors that can throw a wider net and thus get more product out there on the market.
FHTM: Emphasis on Product/Services vs. Recruitment?
So, does Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing put more emphasis on product or recruitment? Check this out and then you be the judge. One of the major factors to consider in their compensation plan is their “Stair Step Breakaway Program”. When a distributor reaches a certain level, they (and their team) can break away from your organization and become their own entity. In essence, they breakaway and become sort of your competition and leave you in the position of losing a chunk of income and having to recruit even harder.
This is one of the less favorable things about FHTM’s compensation plan in my opinion. However, don’t take this one thing out of context. You must consider all the factors before deciding whether or not this feels right to you.
FHTM Training?: Are You Just Left Out In The Cold To Die Another Failed MLM Death?
Let’s talk training. Any great MLM organization will offer great training to it’s reps in a number of different marketing strategies in order to foster a well-educated team of distributors. FHTM offers a minimal amount of training to their distributors. Nothing innovative or comprehensive given by the company to enable anyone new to this industry to know how to create an FHTM network marketing empire.
Your Decision
Before you decide whether or not to join Fortune Hi-Tech Marketing or any MLM company, do your research. There is a lot of murmuring out there right now about this company being a scam. But you must be the judge. Remember network marketing is not a get rich quick scheme. It’s a business. It requires effort and work and then offers great rewards for that continued effort. If any business is pitched to you as a way to make fast cash by just getting a small number of people under you, run. There is no shortcut to success.

Amy

Aviara Life is a direct marketing company that distributes a supplement in the form of a juice. There are two different formulas; one called “AM” and the other called “PM”. They say their products offer you better health and a better quality of life, as well as a way to make a living. Let’s find out.
The Products
Their morning blend, simply called “AM”, contains a number of powerful antioxidants as well as anti-inflammatories claiming to support focus, mood, energy and stamina. Their evening blend, called “PM”, also contains antioxidants as well as anti-inflammatories as well as a number of other ingredients which they claim support sleep, stress relief and detoxification. Both products contain significant amounts of Resveratrol which they say shows tremendous promise as a nutritional supplement according to recent studies.
The Business Opportunity
The Compensation Plan for Aviara Life is your basic Binary Team Structure in which you earn commission based upon the Personal Volume (PV) and Group Volume (GV) from each arm. The Team Commission you earn is based on the total volume in the lesser leg. Pretty standard stuff. There are also many different bonuses you can earn along the way…a “First Order Bonus”, a “Star-Maker Bonus”…etc. You move up the chain from the Entrepreneur Ranks to the Chief Executive Ranks and then on to the Chairman Ranks, each based upon your total sales volume. Nothing unusual here.
The Pros
This is one of the few Network Marketing companies that I’ve seen that offers options to receive health insurance benefits with a wide variety of major providers as well as and an opportunity participate in a matched savings plan. Pretty unusual.
The Cons
Well, let’s face it, this company is Pre-Launch. It’s brand spanking new. As you may know, about 98% of all Network Marketing companies fail…most of them in their first year. So, do you really want to run around and build your empire on what could be quicksand? That’s quite a risk.
The Marketing Plan
Well, hmmm…there isn’t one. This is often the case with many MLMs, whether they’re Pre-launch, like Aviara Life, or even some of the more seasoned MLMs. Most of them do not train you in how to market at all. Even if they do have some experience training you how to market offline, most of it will be the old “make a list of 100 people you know” sort of thing; most of them have you chase your friends and family and try to convince them to join your great opportunity. Aviara Life is no different in that regard.
In order to build wealth and sponsor new reps into your business, you need to learn how to market the way the top earners in our business do, through a proven marketing system that generates massive amounts leads. Your lead list is the lifeblood of your business. You need exposure to the right target market in order to build your business…period.
Summary
Whether you have already signed up with Aviara Life or are considering joining, you’re going to need to put together a marketing plan to really get it off the ground. Whether you are in this for the long haul and want to really grow this into a great business and find serious financial freedom, or whether you just need a few extra bucks in your pocket at the end of the month, you’re going to need a marketing system that is easily duplicatible for your downline in order to have success. A marketing system is KEY for the health of your Aviara business.

Amy
