Market America Review
by David Harris
Market America, by JR and Loren Ridinger and found at marketamerica.com, is a company that uses a slightly different model of multilevel marketing.
They call it the Unfranchised business opportunity.
However, no matter how you label an MLM, it is still an MLM.
That means distributors recruiting new Market America distributors, ad infinitum, so that money flows upward in a pyramidical shape.
MarketAmerica marks up the pricing of their products so high that selling it is an actual difficult challenge.
This makes recruiting others as your way to get anywhere with them.
On top of this practice of pricing excessively, Market America does not advertise their products nor do they want the sales reps to do so either.
It leaves you little choice but to go after people individually, or through meetings.
The ones you manage to sucker into Market America will be encouraged to bring people to the next meetings, and so on.
The term Unfranchised is actually nothing at all like a small business where you sell the products yourself the way you want.
The investment costs for Market America are so prohibitive that it is virtually impossible to make much from this.
I have talked to user customers who got triple billed and had to make chargebacks through their banks.
Many have complained that after sinking $20k to $30k into Market America…
They were only able to earn about 1% to 2% of their investment after a few months.
Another misleading practice Market America and its reps use is to convince prospects that shopping online will be immensely profitable.
There’s almost no chance of that happening.
Market America also misinforms you that all you need is 2 people.
When the reality is that to make anything even close to returning on your investment, it will take closer to $50.
If you have the kind of money to invest $1000s info Market America for about 8 months or so before you see any profit.
I can think of much better ways to invest all that capital than MarketAmerica.
If you don’t, then do not get anywhere near Market America.
You would get paid way better at a burger franchise, than this so-called Unfranchise.
Even though they do offer some kind of product, ridiculously high priced as it may be, to avoid the stigma of being labeled a pyramid scheme by fractions.
Market America will never ever get a recommendation from us.
Thanks for reading the review
