today posted an update (reproduced below) about some changes coming in
the near future. In the context of some of TEAM’s complaints about
wanting price decreases … well, it’s quite interesting reading. In
summary –
- one discount available – case purchases – is being removed.
- most products will remain the same price, only a few will increase
- shipping rates will increase!
- the new product lines will be Simply Nutrilite™ foods for people on the go who care about their health and Artistry® Essentials, a natural colour cosmetics line
So, in contrast to TEAM’s desire to have prices drop,
they’re staying the same or going up. TEAM wanted products to compete
with WalMart, instead Quixtar is introducing more Nutrilite and
Artistry products – premium quality brands.
So Quixtar IBOs are currently able to sell something like 3% of the goods and services that move through the company to actual retail customers, yet the company thinks it is OK to raise prices on some products and shipping and drop case discounts.
How can Quixtar IBOs possibly think that Quixtar is still a good opportunity? Seriously, help me understand. Reputation, Product prices and Compensation are completely stacked against the average IBO.
