Advocare International Review

Advocare International are a multi level marketing company formed in 

1993 by Charles Ragus. They have anchored themselves firmly in the very 
competitive but extremely lucrative health and wellness niche. They sell a 
variety of sports performance, energy and weight loss products and their 
headquarters are in Carrollton, Texas. 

The company employ around 250 people at their head office and also 
have over 50,000 distributors (or IBO's). In 2001 Ragus died and the 
company is now run by Richard H Wright.

The cost to join the Advocare International is pretty low at just $80. For 
this the company give you $60 worth of products plus all the promotional 
material needed to make sales. As a distributor you can earn 25% on all 
items sold and as you move up the system, then you can earn around 
40%. The Compensation plan is a stair step breakaway type which is a 
pretty standard sort of plan used by most of the big mlm companies.

The products themselves have been endorsed by some pretty big names 
in sport and the health and wellness industry and this only helps to add 
credence to Advocare International. There are five major product lines and 
they are: Definite Difference, Performance Elite, Active, Well and Trim, 
each of which have a different function. 

They are a little more pricey than other products that you would find in any 
typical health shop, but the company have a good product following and 
people will buy just because of the quality of the product.

The bottom line is that like most multi level marketing businesses the 
emphasis is on selling products and recruiting people into the business. 
The company themselves have longevity, a good product base and sound 
financial backing, which is what you really want from a mlm business.

However with over 50,000 people already trying to make it with Advocare 
international you would have to question whether there is any room at the 
bottom to make some decent money.

In reality, with the right training and marketing skills, it is possible that you 
can make money with any opportunity but you have to be seriously 
dedicated, focussed and be willing to put a lot of time and effort into your 
business to succeed. 

However although 97% of people quit within their first three months of a 
starting a multi level marketing businesses, this particular niche has 
produced more millionaires than any other. Just keep in mind to do your 
due diligence and get more information before you jump into any 
opportunity.
