Arbonne International - Team Godspeed Gold Kit White Mercedes Good Company Houston Nationwide

I was approached by two colleagues - both very reputable women, who told me of a "pie in the sky" opportunity to work for a great company with great products. It wasn't a pyramid scheme because everyone makes money is what they told me. All you have to do is pay $100 per month (actually you buy $100 per month in product) and you'll get checks for a lot more than that.

I purchased $1100 in product to "get started." The products really were good. My skin never felt so soft. But where they overpriced...yes. Anyway every month for 5 months I bought an additional $100 in product (oh and it was always more than that because everything comes out to either $97 or $112 - so of course I was always at the $112 level) but never saw any additional dollars, even though I was being told that I was moving up the chart on the team. I kept hearing about the two school teachers in Arlington who quit their jobs and bought a new house and blah, blah, blah. They only ever signed up two other people and look how successful they were.

After two months and $1300 plus dollars invested - I couldn't get anyone to sign up or purchase the products from me, but I did receive my first check, it was $15! With the urging (nagging/harrassment) from the colleague to stick with it and the "white mercedes" would be mine in a month or two, I did...and an additional $300 plus and three months later I said enough is enough. I'm drowning in products that no one wants to buy and I'm not seeing a return on my investment. Shortly thereafter I received a check for $25. I don't know if those two colleagues are driving their mercedes benz's yet because I no longer speak with them. But from where I sit, "Godspeed" is what happens to your money as it quickly dissappears. This is not a "team." The gold kit is not the answer to financial security. This is a pyramid scheme plain and simple. If someone wants to honestly sell beauty products I'm sure it's a great company just like Mary Kay and Avon, but SELLING PRODUCT is important - you can't just make a monthly $100 investment to move up the pyramid, as I'm a District Manager and for all of my efforts and title, I made $40 in six months!
