Is Melaleuca an Honest Business?

There are many companies out there that you would want to stay away from. Melaleuca is not one of them. After an extensive review of their company and policies, it is safe to say that there is no Melaleuca Scam.

Melaleuca is run by Frank Vandersloot, who has been tat the helm pretty much since its inception. With his leadership the Melaleuca has seen consistent growth and has continued to add products and services. As a user of these products, I can tell you that they are quality and affordable. So while some may feel that Melaleuca is a scam, they truly have not spent the time to get to know the company.

As a testament to the quality of products and company that they are, Melaleuca has had a five year run as an Inc. 500 company. They are privately held and owe no debt. They have shown stability for many years and have grown organically without the need to borrow funds to continue their growth.

While not the most lucrative plan out there today, Melalueca still has created a program that allows its customers and members to buy a limited number of products allowing them to buy just what they need. Unlike some companies that force you, through auto ship, to buy thousands of dollars worth of product that you don't need or use. That is a huge difference between Melaleuca and many companies who can be construed as a scam.

The result is that Melaleuca boasts a retention rate over 90% for its customers. While most MLM companies lose as much as 97% of their members due to costs, lack of quality of product and the most important issue, the inability to grow their business either due to lack of training or support from their team.

In this area Melaleuca is no different than many of the other companies out there. While individuals within the membership have figured out ways to help their teams be successful, most still start with a focus on old school marketing methods and friends and family, "their warm market".

That is why many distributors feel that most of the MLM and home distribution companies are scams. When in fact they just haven't had the right tools to be able to grow their business. They alienate their friends and family and the begin spending money on expensive and generally worthless leads. What they are not aware of, is that there is a whole cottage industry growing up around social media and the internet and with the right tools they too can be successful.

So if you are thinking about getting into Melaleuca, or are already involved and have run out of ways to market your company, or you are just thinking about the benefits of being involved in a MLM company but are afraid of the risks and downside, I can help you to find a better way to reach your goals.
