Mandura- Can it be a Real Business Opportunity?
What do we know about Mandura and its compensation plan? Can you actually make enough money with Mandura and its forced straightline compensation plan to run a business? That is the question every potential Indpendent Business Owner (IBO) needs to ask and answer before choosing a team to work with.
Mandura is a juice company. Research shows that the average American does not consume the recommended daily dosage of fruits. Plus the fruit that is eaten is often too ripe or not ripe enough to give the proper nutrition. Mandura combines four of the most nutrient rich and potent fruits. The Mandura beverage is comprised of Durian fruit, Mangosteen, Brazilian Acai berry and the North American Blueberry. Mandura makes certain that the ingredients are harvested at the ideal times. Mandura has combined the four fruits to create a perfect nutritional balance.
When I read and watched the compensation plan presentation I was confused. There were so many details about levels and qualifications that I was lost for a while. The bottom line seems to be a recommendation that people who want to be distributors should sign up for an auto-ship of $100 of Mandura products. Before we get into the marketing issues of this company let us look at the compensation plan. Mandura claims that most network marketing companies have very confusing compensation plans and they said theirs was simple. Hm.
The residual that you will collect from this is $10. Very basically you will earn $10 from every auto-ship on your team. Now that you know that you will earn $10 from one auto-ship. Is this a really solid income? How many distributors will you need to come out ahead? A lot. So if you are patient, understand this it will take a few years to really see the good results. So how can I recommend this opportunity? If you are really sold on this opportunity and want to build it the right way, there are some techniques I suggest.
Look at the company website. Don’t waste time and money sending people to your company replicated site. The websites that companies give you rarely convert people to sales or distributors. The site looks good graphically but it definitely does not follow SEO and of the rules of good marketing. The majority of network marketers go broke because they don’t understand marketing. They send people to their company replicated website. Mandura is no different. Surely if they teach you old school methods I am sure they will not work.
So is Mandura a genuine business opportunity? Yes, but not as simply as you think. The way I see someone being successful with this company is by aiming for a target market of existing network marketers. Existing network marketers are already business buyers and are believers in the values of this industry. But if they already have a company what are they looking for? Leadership. They are looking for leadership, a mentor that can teach them how to be successful. In truth the people buying into Mandura are looking for people, not business opportunities.
You must understand without your leadership skills, your business opportunity is irrelevant. That is a really good reason to choose Mandura as part of your network marketing income streams. The Mandura product tastes delicious, I’ve tried it. It is healthy. So if I can get health and wealth and improved leadership skills all at one place, it is a good deal for me.
If all you want to do is sell the Mandura product, it is not a really good company for your goals as a business owner. There’s just too many similar products on the market right now that do not require an MLM business opportunity. Now for someone who wants to market the company to existing network marketers and slowly acquire qualified business builders into their downline, that is a different story. That is how Mandura, or any network marketing company, can work for you. How can you learn to market like the real top earners in the network marketing industry? Become a leader who people want to follow and apply attraction marketing or funded proposal concepts. Once you do that people come searching for you to learn from you.
