    Don't know much about them other than they are a multi-level marketing company around healthcare supplements. Seems like an Amway-like company. I'm not knocking Amway per se. They've been around since 1942 so they've managed to do something right but a lot of people see these companies as pyramid schemes or distribution networks where the guys at the top make all the money.

    I don't know much more than that about Qivana or the integrity of their business model or products.

    For a monthly "packet" it can run up to $300 -- so to me that sounds nuts. But he invested as a dealer. $3000 and they want another 2000 in a month - im trying to talk him out of it...i just dont see it being legit...i dunno

    The claims are that their energy and weight loss products work but don't stand out when compared to other products already on the market.

    I'm skeptical of any company that would make you buy products in volume and then resell as a distributor. In these cases, the distributors make very little commission. The real money comes when you build a network of dealers/distributors a the lead distributor receives a margin on all sales from each distributor in his/her network. These things can work but rarely as well as people would lead you to believe.

    IMHO....I wouldn't touch the "opportunity".

    Most likely. A lot of these companies will price their products at a premium claiming greater purity or concentration of active ingredients. It bs most of the time IMO.

    Most people will be duped by these products. It all comes down to marketing, falsified or otherwise.

    That sounds like a great plan. I'm going to go pray for more muscles. I'm sure that's the missing piece to my routine!

    Ya, I guess this would have been a more appropriate lounge question.
