The Ardyss Compensation Plan in Review

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

Like any MLM program the Ardyss compensation plan is both pretty standard, and sometimes hard to understand. If you have the years of experience that I do with multilevel marketing, it certainly makes it easier to decipher this document, but if you are new to the MLM business the sheer amount of jargon involved can be quite intimidating.

The first part of the Ardyss compensation plan, or any MLM compensation package, is the retail profits. When you become an MLM distributor you essentially purchase product at wholesale, then sell it for retail, pocketing the difference.

40% can be a pretty good margin if you are moving lots of product, and you can always lower your retail price point in an effort to boost volume while shrinking your margin, but you might upset a few people in the process. Besides, if you know how to market well you should have no problem moving product at full retail price.

There are some definite advantages to finding ways to boost your sales volumes, both personally and in your network, but undercutting the competition is not the best way. Obviously if you really want to boost your volumes you need to be using good marketing techniques. This will allow you to generate respectable volume as well as maintain your per unit profit margin.

The Ardyss Compensation Plan is much like any other MLM compensation package, in that “promotions” which grant you access to bonuses and increase the range of your commissions in your network are triggered by monthly wholesale purchases, both individual and group orders.

Since the commission you earn from your recruits is based on their wholesale orders, the more recruits, and the more productive they are, the more you earn and the faster you get promoted. The higher you are promoted, the more members in your downline will be generating commissions for you, and that is obviously a good thing.

Not only does the Ardyss compensation plan include these standard MLM features, it has a whole slew of bonuses. You get bonuses for recruiting, bonuses for qualifying orders, and bonuses for hitting certain sales or recruitment goals.

If you want to reach the top of the Ardyss compensation plan, or any MLM Business, you will need to understand how to market well. A solid grasp of marketing principles will not only improve your results, it will help you guide your recruits to better results, too, which means more commissions for you.

What to look for in Ardyss Training

Monday, December 14th, 2009

Today multilevel marketing businesses are being taken more seriously than ever before. This in no small part due to the impact the internet has had on the MLM industry as a whole. If you are looking for information how to succeed as an Ardyss distributor there is a good chance you will be looking for Ardyss training, but what should you expect to get out of a good training program?

To start, the best Ardyss training programs are not specific just to Ardyss. It will focus on general marketing strategies that can be used with Ardyss as well as any other product. You may see specific examples of how a certain principle was applied to the Ardyss line of products, but their emphasis should be on the marketing principle and not on a specific execution of the principle.

Seriously, the first sign of a quality Ardyss training program is whether or not you are learning marketing strategies that can be applied universally to any product. If your training program is not helping you learn how to effectively market anything and everything, you should consider finding a new one.

The internet has become an increasingly powerful weapon in the successful multilevel marketer’s arsenal. The old multilevel marketing methods such as compiling name lists, going to hotel meetings, or holding seminars just cannot be as effective as the internet.

Effectively using the internet as a marketing tool is essential for quality Ardyss training, I am not talking about offering your perspective customers materials that help them create a cookie cutter website on their lunch break, with the level of skepticism in today’s consumer market you will have to be able to create a distinctive and unique marketing strategy to succeed.

By effective internet marketing I am talking about ways to generate traffic to your site, as well as how to create a website that is appealing to visitors and successfully converts traffic into both sales and possible network recruits.

While an excellent marketing plan should be a part of any Ardyss training program you participate in, it shouldn’t be only focus of the course. Instead you should be learning all the valuable marketing concepts that have been used for years, as well as the new and improved methods that take advantage of modern day technology.

A Brief Review of Ardyss

Saturday, December 12th, 2009

With the huge influx of interest in the multilevel marketing industry it is absolutely important that people considering an MLM program, including Ardys, make sure they know what they are getting in to. I have spent years working with MLM programs and have developed a system I use to analyze any MLM opportunity I hear about.

I review MLM opportunities like Ardys because I think it is imperative that people have a full understanding of what they are getting into when they join an MLM program. To this end I will go ahead and review Ardys using my standard three point evaluation.

The easiest way to analyze an MLM business is to consider the product, the company, and the marketing materials in place. These universal aspects are applicable to all MLM products which is why I use them.

That being said, how solid is the Ardys product? Well, that’s going to depend on which of their many products you are talking about. With years of experience manufacturing body reshaping garments, Ardys’ has a fairly solid product in the form of garments like the Body Magic. While there are competitors in this field I am hard pressed to think of a recognizable one.

These days Ardys offers more than just their reshaping garments. The Ardys product line now also consists of health supplements and skin care products. While a diverse product line opens up a new customer base for their distributors, the level of competition in both the health supplement and the skin care industry cannot be ignored.

Then there is Ardys the company. Ardys has been around for basically 20 years, having incorporated in Las Vegas in 1991. While their initial concentration focused on Latin American markets, Ardys has been using their multilevel marketing distribution system to make strides in the US as well as other markets.

Finally, there are the Ardys marketing materials available. Not only do they have a web system that makes it easier for distributors to use the internet’s unrivaled power for generating sales and prospective recruits, they offer a number of brochures that can distributors can reproduce as hard copies or incorporate into their own websites.

While Ardys’ strengths and weaknesses are unique to them, they are like any other MLM product in the respect that real success can only be realized with a solid understanding of marketing principles. Knowing how to market well will give you the power to turn any MLM product, including Ardys into a viable money maker.

A Quick Review of Ardyss

Saturday, December 12th, 2009

In my years working in the multilevel marketing industry I have looked at more than my fair share of MLM products. While I truly believe success is possible in any MLM system, it would be naive to pretend that any MLM opportunity is as good as another.

To this end I developed a simple three point system I use each and every time I am looking at a new MLM product, whether I am considering participating in it myself, or simply trying to offer a useful review to people considering a given MLM opportunity. That being said let us go ahead and take a look at Ardyss.

When I evaluate any MLM business, Ardyss included, I always look at the product, then the company, and finally any marketing materials that the company might make available. These three traits are obviously a part of any MLM business so they provide me with guideposts when trying to determine the value of an MLM product.

That being said, how does Ardyss score in the product category? Well, that depends largely on which of their products you are talking about. They are leaders in the body reshaping garment business and that means that their wide line of reshaping garments for men and women is going to be solid quality. On the other hand, the health supplement and skin care product lines have plenty of well established competitors in fierce market that not only has product against product, but distribution channel, direct sales and retail, fighting fiercely for the consumer dollar.

Then there is Ardyss the company. Ardyss has been around for nearly two decades (some people claim the company began in Mexico in 1989, but the company’s website seems to instead use their incorporation date of 1991) making body reshaping products. They have plenty of experience in that field. I do not know how I feel about the fact that they were willing to wade into the crowded sea of health care and skin care products.

Then of course there is Ardyss as a company. They have been making their body reshaping garments for almost 20 years. Incorporated in 1991 in Las Vegas, Ardyss has demonstrated that at least one of their product lines was strong enough to not only keep the doors open, but to grow and expand the company itself in time.

Then of course there are the marketing materials. The web based interface for sending internet sales and prospects to the Ardyss website sure helps distributors with building their network and sales on the internet. While an easily duplicated marketing system is always desired in an MLM business it is not absolutely necessary.

If you want to avoid that frustration and see your MLM Business, whether you are an Ardyss distributor or a member of some other program, you need to take the time to educate yourself on marketing. That is the only way your business will have the success you are hoping for.

A Behind the Scenes Look At Making Money Online

Sunday, December 6th, 2009

Making money online is a very viable industry. It is one of the few businesses that you that can honestly bring in 5-6 figure monthly incomes with almost no operating costs. hard to comprehend but is true}. The other truth is that most of the people that get started don’t make it. I am a full time internet marketer and would just like to share with you some of the things that I wish I had known before I started marketing on the internet.

You must know that it is very common to become overwhelmed. The amount of information that is available is absolutely amazing. It would be in your best interest to move forward with caution. If you don’t have a clear direction, you will find yourself wandering around aimlessly. What I am going to do is cover 3 basic ideas for making money online so you can get an idea of what may best fit your needs. I can’t cover all of them but these are good examples.

The most simple I think is affiliate marketing. This is basically marketing somebody else’s product. It is important to know a little about the product first. Clickbank.com is a great place to start. You will see that some products pay better, while some may seem in higher demand. In any circumstance, you would simply join as an affiliate, get a private link to the product page, and start marketing it to the world. You could also build a web site or blog that would have some content related to the product and attract people to that and then direct them to the product. In either case, you get a commission when a customer buys using your link. Sounds simple, right?

This next one is a bit more complicated. It is called information marketing. You are still marketing stuff except you are the one who creates the product and sells it. Most often, the product is an ebook or online training course. How to books, training books, fitness and diet books are normal examples. This is similar to the affiliate marketing except now you are actually marketing . You can of course offer your product to be sold by others as your affiliates. That’s one of the benefits of information marketing, that you can get others to do it . You just need the valuable content.

The last way to make money online that I am discussing is probably the most complex but is also my personal favorite. Your potential for massive residual income is incredible. It involves online network marketing or multi level marketing. You wiil see more millionaires come from this than anything else.  You can now promote multi level marketing online in your sleep. This type of online opportunity utilizes aspects of information marketing and affiliate marketing and uses them to supplement multi-level marketing online. Tons of money can be made online with this one but you need to start in the right place.

Check out the links below. I honestly think that I will direct you in the most beneficial direction, save you some frustration so you can make money online.

Thanks,    
Ron

What you should expect from the Ardyss Reviews

Friday, December 4th, 2009

I have written plenty of reviews of various multilevel marketing programs through the years. After all my experience I have in the MLM industry, and countless reviews of MLM products there are a few key points I always look at when reading an MLM business which includes Ardyss reviews.

The first thing you should look for in Ardyss reviews, or any MLM reviews for that matter is a method that is used to fairly evaluate the MLM product in its entirety. If you are seeing reviews that have nothing but good things to say about the product, I think it is safe to say you are probably not looking at an honest or unbiased opinion.

For example, my method of analyzing prospective MLM businesses consists of looking at three key factors, the product, the company, and the company’s marketing. I use these concepts in not just my Ardyss reviews, but my reviews of any MLM product. Obviously different reviewers may have their own systems, but you should see some system that cannot only be applied to the product mentioned specifically in the review, but any other MLM product out there as well.

True Ardyss reviews will be honest and unbiased. Any reviews that only focus on a product’s benefits should be considered with skepticism. No matter how good I think the Ardyss Body Magic might be at reshaping a woman’s body, it is just a body reshaping garment. The decision by Ardyss to involve themselves in the crowded health supplement and skin care product industries speaks volumes.

One definite plus for Ardyss is the company history. They’ve been incorporated since 1991 which means they have nearly two decades of experience producing the body shaping garments that form the core of their current product line. I appreciate the willingness to expand into other product lines that Ardyss has demonstrated, but I have reservations about the fields they expanded into. It is this kind of impartial analysis that you should find in quality Ardyss reviews.

The last and perhaps least important thing to consider when looking at an MLM business is the marketing system that is in place. Ardyss does has some tools in place that make it much easier than ever for their distributors to use the internet to build up their business, but it takes real marketing knowledge to achieve lasting results.

There are sure to be some Ardyss reviews out there that are more ad copy than review, but the internet has plenty of information floating around about how to succeed at MLM Business. Between this information and the options created by using the internet as a distribution channel, the internet has changed the way multilevel marketing works on a fundamental level.

So In conclusion, the best Ardyss reviews will take an honest look at the company, the good and bad. There should be no surprise to find reviews emphasizing the importance of developing your own marketing strategy to succeed with this product.

Ardyss International – A Quick Review

Friday, December 4th, 2009

I have been working with and reviewing various MLM programs for a while. In my years in the MLM industry I became aware of a shortage of objective reviews, which is why I decided to start doing them. In this article I plan to review Ardyss Internation.

Ardyss International is obviously not the first, and definitely not the last, MLM product I will be reviewing. Anytime I review an MLM opportunity I always use the same three-point system to make my evaluation. I devised my system because it is both simple, and universally applicable.

The three things I always look at when reviewing an MLM opportunity like Ardyss International are the product, the company, and the marketing materials. Obviously any MLM product will have these three components, which is why this system is so useful.

Let us go ahead and start with the product, or rather the product lines, available from Ardyss International. Their primary product line would be their body reshaping garments, like the Body Magic. They have also introduced lines of both health supplements and skin care products, though I cannot help but point out the stiff competition that exists in both of those industries.

Ardyss International is based in Las Vegas, incorporated in 1991. The company’s history probably predates that as a small business. While Ardyss originally targeted Latin American markets, they have been reaching into the US market more and more through their multilevel marketing distribution.

Finally there are the marketing materials. Ardyss International makes a number of brochures that their distributors can use. They also support a web based system that makes internet sales and recruitment easier, which is a definite plus considering how important the internet has become to the MLM industry.

The most important thing when trying to operate your own MLM business, whether you are an Ardyss International distributor or working with another program is your knowledge of marketing. A firm grasp of solid marketing techniques can give you the ability to succeed with any MLM product.

I strongly suggest anybody considering Ardyss International, or any other MLM Business; take the time to educate their self on effective marketing techniques. Doing so will give them the know how to turn any MLM product into a financial winner.

Ardyss International Complaints in Review

Friday, December 4th, 2009

In my years in the MLM industry I have seen complaints about just about every MLM program I have ever looked at. It is for that reason that I am not surprised to see the number of Ardyss International complaints that are floating around out there in the echo chamber commonly called the internet.

I want to start off by saying some of the Ardyss International complaints out there do have some validity to them. However, these complaints are in the minority and tend to be subjective in nature. A customer’s dissatisfaction with a product is based on their personal experience and is by no means shared amongst all the users of a product. While people are obviously entitled to their opinions, these complaints are purely subjective in nature.

Many of the Ardyss International complaints are accusations of false or misleading advertising. This is true of any MLM program, not just Ardyss. These complaints typically focus on either the product, or the business opportunity provided by the MLM program. The question is, are such accusations valid?

So, are the Ardyss International complaints about the products being falsely advertised true? In short, yes, sometimes they are true. While Ardyss itself and most of its distributors do not engage in this practice, there will always be some distributors who in a moment of desperation will turn to such tactics in an attempt to make their business succeed. This is something that is true of any MLM product though, and no matter how hard a company like Ardyss works to prevent this from happening, it is impossible for them to monitor all of their distributors all of the time everywhere.

The Ardyss International complaints that are focused on the business opportunity are pretty standard for any MLM business. Usually most complaints focus on whether or not a MLM business can really provide income without work, or if anybody can actually succeed with one.

As for the Ardyss International complaints that focus on the business, they tend to split into complaints about some of the widely popularized benefits of an MLM business. MLM businesses are often described as being something that anybody can do. They are also touted as being an opportunity for people to derive an income from their business without needing to work. While both of these statements are true, the MLM business is by no means simple or clean cut.

As for whether or not anybody can succeed in multilevel marketing, well that is true too. However while anybody can succeed, they still need to know how to market to succeed. A solid understanding of marketing makes it possible to succeed in any MLM, and that includes Ardyss.

The Ardyss International complaints are similar to the complaints you can find about any multilevel marketing program out there. Typically these complaints are lodged by people who attempted the business, but lacked the needed marketing knowledge to succeed. If you want to succeed with your MLM Business, and not be left feeling bitter, make sure to educate yourself on effective marketing.

The Ardyss Scam – Is there one?

Friday, December 4th, 2009

Just like any other MLM product, there are people out there willing to cry foul to anybody who will listen about the dangers of the Ardyss scam. I always take scam accusations seriously, but I have found in my research that all too often in the multilevel marketing business people say something is wrong when in fact nothing is wrong. I feel it is important to look at any claims seriously and I use a systematic approach any time I investigate one.

Essentially I really focus on two things when reviewing a MLM program that has been called a scam. The product in question, and the business, typically any complaints about a scam are focused on one of if not both of these key pieces and the Ardyss scam is not any different from other MLM program in this regard.

So let us start by looking at the products offered and see if there is an Ardyss scam to be found there. Ardyss has a diverse line of products which includes health supplements and skin care products as well as their core line of body reshaping garments. To be honest, I find myself questioning how well some Ardyss products work, like their memory improving health supplement. With that being said, body reshaping clothing is anything but a new concept.

While some products may in fact be more placebo than power packed, I feel confident that the primary product, their body reshaping products can effectively change the shape of a person’s body through prolonged and regular use, even if it is only by conditioning the body to perpetually try to suck in the tummy or sit up straight. In short, proclaiming the catalog is the Ardyss scam seems heavy handed and inaccurate to me.

Does this mean that the Ardyss scam is the MLM business opportunity? Well, in my experience lots of people call MLM businesses scams when they feel like they do not live up to the promises of easy wealth and that anybody can succeed in an MLM business.

The truth is it is entirely possible to turn an MLM business into an easy source of steady income. However it is not easy to develop an MLM business to this point. It can take weeks, months, or years depending on your personal goals before that happens, and you can be certain lots of work goes into growing the business to such a degree.

The truth of the matter is that anybody can succeed as the owner of an MLM business. Anyone can succeed, assuming of course that they have the marketing knowledge necessary to effectively sell the product and grow their personal network. Trying to succeed in MLM without any understanding of marketing is like trying to drive a car without the keys.

If you want to find success, and not cry, “Ardyss Scam!” as you become increasingly frustrated with your MLM Business, you need a solid grasp of the essential marketing principles that allow you to succeed in any MLM venture regardless of the product.

As a distributor, you get to secure a considerable profit if you’re able to market and trade the products dynamically and hire distributors. high fliers get rewarded with amazing bonuses and incentives such as free trips abroad!

a. You’ll should generate a minimum quantity of business each month to be eligible for pay and perks.

Don’t be discouraged by all this! Going up the ladder to success is absolutely achievable. Touch a point where you could get 64% commission on sales and get complimentary trips to foreign countries. Sounds tempting?
