Univera’s volume today is a fraction of what they used to be…all a result of corporate mis-management that includes Bill Lee. Most if their products contain Sodium Benzoate, a preservative that Coca-Cola has stopped using because of the controversy behind it. They were not honest and upfront about the problems and they basically did not answer the phone for nearly 6 months. The company is literally 40 minutes from my home and I wouldn’t touch them for a million bucks.

Univera is the most amazing company I have EVER come across. I have never been involved in a company that treats their associates and employees in the reputable way Univera does. No company is going to be perfect but like Scott said, they are honest and honorable and take accountability for their mistakes and make sure they learn from them so they will not happen again. The comp plan is incredible and more importantly the products are absolutely life changing. It is a privilege to be a part of what Bill Lee and Univera are doing for this world. Lets look forward…..

Univera hasn’t even sniffed the volume that they were doing before they imploded. Costco is a well run company. Univera is run by the idea of the month. Big difference.

I Think there are many half truths when I read the comments from many leaders in the industry I agree with both Shaun and to a lesser degree what Ty said to about Univera and the question that keeps coming up is when I had the chance to talk to both John , Marshall and Derek Hall how they were so convincing that Univera was the most life changing company they had the privilage to be part of in there entire mlm careers. Which they stated before and after the corporate hiccup and then decided to jump ship again I guess if we take and look at peoples track record how many companies have they actually been loyal to and how many times they make changes. it paints a picture for the value of thier words and honesty. i worked for a company in the mid 80’s that i was told would never survive and i should jump ship I was actually bagging apples and potatoes when i first started working for them and when i left 15 years later they were the most successful wharehouse chain in there industry many of my friends are 30 year employees today and Costco have over 500 stores worls wide today. loyalty does payoff and i believe it is something missing in the mlm industry.One thing i will say about Univera from the owner to corporate they are Honest and Honorable and take accountabilty for their mistakes and make sure they learn from them to make sure it will not happen again. Which is why they growing so fast in this economy.

This is certainly an amazing industry we are in. And it does say alot about planning ahead. You can not build a $800,000 like you do a $1,000,000 company and you can not build a $100,000,000 million dollar company in like fashion.
Pays to keep an eye on how they start going from CEO to putting boards in place etc,etc.

Shaun, I was the fastest Platinum in the history or Univera. Univera had growing pains? They had a virtual meltdown from a corporate perspective. I could not sponsor a single person or enroll a customer for six months because I had no idea if they would even get products. If Univera had their act together, no one (including me) would have left.

I’ve met and spoken with these three men and have a
great deal of respect for each of them, though I would doubt they’d remember me. To make their argument stronger, they have left out several key elements. In the beginning there was John Terhune, who had a consulting company, and made efforts to sell his tools to Univera/Oasis. He was in communication with a distributor / associate from the company and was so impressed by the science and direction the company was heading in that he came on board( bringing in Marshal and Joe). True, the company did have growing pains, (to say the least) like all companies do. Unfortunately, once the damage was done, it was too late. What you won’t here John say is that the company took it upon itself to match every distributor / associates monthly bonus check for three consecutive months, everyone’s, in an attempt to right a wrong. Since then the company has also brought in for consultation purposes a group of top associates known at the Field Leadership Commission to work hand in hand with corporate in order to do what is best for the associates and the customers. They’ve also turned a good compensation plan in the best comp plan I’ve been able to research to date. One last thing, John ( so I’ve been told) was offered a large 5-digit monthly contract to move over to a new company. Unfortunately, some will do whatever it takes to make the almighty buck. Many friendships were broke, many lies told, I hope John, Marshall and Joe realize what they gave up.

Obviously, this description sounds bias and is posted to discredit Univera. I'm not doubting that some of the events happened. I would just like to hear the facts from both sides.

So why did it take Terhune, Douglas and Land two years to figure this out?

Was Univera paying them extra money to stay before?
