***WARNING***
James (May 20, 2010 at 5:42pm) is right. This is a total scam. There is nothing honourable about the way this business works. I went to their convention in Melbourne this weekend to check it out. What I found were a lot of people who are completely deluded. It is all very well to have a DREAM – I am all for that. Market America and market Australia preys upon very vulnerable and uneducated people. As the saying goes: “When a man with experience meets a man with money, the man with the experience will end up with the money, and the man with money will end up with the experience!” That is what happens with MA. People, really do your research first before signing up to this. There are two types of Network Marketing / Direct Selling companies. First are those where the product came first and truly is something unique and exceptional. Second is a company where the founders invented a compensation plan and then went looking for a product. MA is an example of a company with a compensation plan that went looking for a product. And there is nothing special about their range of products. Also, when you are looking at an opportunity such as this, be very careful of a company where the distributors also hold positions on the corporate side – this presents a really big risk of conflicts of interest. Also, be very careful of companies that are privately owned – they require extra close scrutiny.
All the best.
Tom.

This thing is a scam, and the only one who is making money is JR RIDINGER and his close friends.
Sorry guys if you are in business in MA you have to stop right know before you lose a lot of money. Sorry! I wish to say something good but unfortunately is a real scam pyramid. you are paying every month for the pocket of a very smart thief his name JR RIDINGER.

I do not know about the business but I can tell you that Isotonix is the only product that worked for me. When nothing else helped my stomach ( I have a Dr. that I work with for my food intolerances caused by certain foods, and this product was the only thing that got me back on track to feeling good again.) I am scheduled to be tested again to identify the offending foods, in the Spring around May but I am away until that time and Isotonix made my life livable again.) As far as money is concerned I have spent countless $’s trying everything to get relief. This works and I am so grateful for it.

hey guys,, one thing is for sure,, to become successful it totally depends on you. no matter how good market america is, if you are not doin anything then don’t expect anything. i started market america on april 22 2008 am still a coordinator(earned the first $300 check) but i didn’t give up and will not coz i know its just a matter of time and i need to put more effort to become successful. to let u guys know am not trying to be very positive or anything,, i simply belief and know that this system is gonna work coz iz been workin for so many people and for me too,,, though i haven’t made big money rienow but i’ve learned alot from market america,, and will soon be making big money for sure. all am trying to say is that the system works but it depends on the individual to make it work for them

yeah, funny. im like, THE laziest person in the fricken world, and I’M ‘rippin it up’. it’s not that hard to make phone calls for an hour, show the plan for one hour 2 times a week, and bring people that happen to be interested in owning their own dream center every now and then to an online or physical event. you can’t spare 8-12 hours a week to LEARN something, then make simple phone calls and SHARE INFORMATION? i’d definately agree that you are a scam. go be a sheep. oh, wait, you already did that. that’s why you’re here, dissing MA. why dont you get new friends that are caring and supportive? they ARE out there, you know! for heavens sake, i switchboarded all of my contacts because i’ve been a stay at home mom for the past 4 years with no car and a hubby working overtime. i didnt have 100 names to start, are you kidding me? no, i had less than 10. but that’s not the point. the whole thing is based on LESS than what the average person has already been proven capable of doing. which is managing 2 teams, 10 customers, and commiting 8-12 hours a week to the business doing what i’ve already said(making calls ect). you do the proven plan, and you WILL get paid. you try to reinvent the wheel, rendering it UNproven, and you forfeit all your time/money/effort/leverage and render YOURSELF useless until you get it right. if you work slow, the money is slow but IT COMES. if you work fast, the money comes FAST. it’s all up to YOU, noone else. you have the tools, the team, and everything you need. but noone will do the work FOR you.

It is kind of a scam, in order to be sucessful you need to invest a lot of time and a lllooooottt of money to make it work. Products for health work but they are vveerryy expensive making very difficult for people to buy.

I was in the business for a year and a 1/2 and all my friends, family, and any one else in front of me were afraid to talk to me because you become obssesed with the idea that they sell you and you want everybody to do the same, but it is not like that.

It can work but you reaaalllyyy need o eat and breath Market America, and in my live what I need is something that I can relly money wise. this is just not for me…

Play the lotto, who knows, you may be the next millonare!!
