Arbonne
International is a California based
multi level marketing company that has been
in business for over twenty years.
Arbonne International specializes in a
variety of skin care and cosmetic products.
The Arbonne product line contains more than
200 hundred items used for anti-aging, acne,
and general skin care for men, women and
babies.
In addition to skin care products Arbonne
International also manufactures
aroma-essentials. A product line that
includes: bath oils, massage oils, a variety
of body lotions, candles, and soaps.
Arbonne International has been very
successful and the company's profits have been
consistently on the rise. They do
approximately $35 million in sales annually
and Arbonne is now considered to be a
serious competitor to Mary Kay and Avon.
The only drawback to Arbonne Products
is their hefty price. Most people that
try the items have good things to say and
would generally buy more if not for the high
cost. This also has consequences for
resellers of Arbonne, as it is more
difficult to sell expensive skin care
products.
The business side of Arbonne
International employs an MLM business model
very similar to
Quixtar. Arbonne consultants earn
35% commission on their sales but have to
abide by strict guidelines of how to market
and resell Arbonne products.
As with other MLM businesses most people
do not make serious profits and not by any
fault of their own. The structure of
MLM's make it very hard to succeed once you
get past selling to your friends and family.
Arbonne restricts consultants from using
their own custom websites to sell online.
If you want to sell online you have to
purchase a pre-made Arbonne website.
The problem with those is that its very
difficult to get traffic to a cookie cutter
website. Arbonne officials say that
the nature of this business is to sell
face-to-face but I know that many people
would prefer to do business online.
These restrictions have led people to the
only profitable online outlet they could
find, auction sites. You can find
thousands of Arbonne Products being
sold by consultants on eBay. This
level of competition has forced prices far
below market value and makes profiting
difficult.

This is something that works. When this business/products came to my town, it exploded! People were signing up left and right because it was new in the area and there were MANY opportunties for new members and buyers. The products themselves are fantastic and many were eager to try. You can just buy the products through a consultant at a discounted price, or you can become a consultant yourself. That's what takes, and makes, the money.
The initial start up package is around $35 if i remember right. that gets you started selling the products, earning money etc. Which is all fine and good, people can make money this way. The bigger $$ are in building the business...getting people to sign up to sell the products themselves. The woman that brought this to our (small) town has been earning thousands of dollars per month...basically because everyone that has signed up is underneath her, so she makes so much profit from that.
Overall, it's a good business opportunity. In ord... read more»
