How to read this comparison

  • Starter kit is the up-front purchase to begin selling. Some companies also charge an annual renewal or a website fee; check the company page.
  • Personal commission is your cut of your own retail sales. Downline commission is what you earn on sales by people you recruit; a plan with no downline pay is single-level, one with overrides is multi-level.
  • Sales to earn the kit back divides the minimum kit by the minimum commission. It is the retail volume you must sell before the kit has paid for itself, before any other costs.
  • Most multi-level plans publish an income disclosure statement. Ask for it, and read it, before you sign. Typical participants earn far less than the top ranks.
  • Figures are company-reported and can change. Spot something out of date? Tell us.

1. No overhead, no inventory, no team needed. 2. Professional products that I can be proud of as a pro. 3.Created by a co. with decades of loyalty supplying professional muas around the world. 4.CEO's who listen & speak directly with Beauty Guides, honest, transparent, & implements procedures for the BGs to thrive. 5.CEO's are even willing to apologize and tweak / reverse decisions when BG express real issues that impede their work!Who does that?!!

I love the products from Arbonne! I use the protein daily after my workout (chocolate with frozen cherries added is my FAVE) and have also fallen in love with their RE9 skincare regimen. Makes my skin so soft and smooth. Can't wait to try the new vegan collagen-booster they just came out with!

Becoming a beauty guide has impact my life in countless positive ways. Not only are the products all natural and free from harmful checmicals and fillers, our CEOs are incredibly generous and kind, and our teammates in customer care are top notch. You won't find another company like LimeLife.
