HostThenProfit: No recruitment, no commissions

A recent trend in MLM opportunities these days is to offer training products (usually ebooks) to help internet marketers market other opportunities. This works to the advantage of the company offering the training in that if things don’t work, they can always suggest it was the opportunity the marketer was trying to promote that was [...]

ZingBizPro Review: Less social, more marketing?

I last reviewed the BizOppers MLM opportunity back in June this year, they were getting ready to wind up their ‘phase 1 beta launch’ and hadn’t really announced what they were doing after that. Fast forward a few months later and it appears BizOppers are getting ready to launch ‘phase 2′ of their beta launch… [...]

Skinny Body Care: Weight loss MLM with sales

A quick visit to the Skinny Body Care website doesn’t reveal all that much. You’re presented with a bunch of login screens, a recently enrolled list on the side and not much else. There’s an enticing ‘free tour’ option at the bottom of the page, but without a referring member ID,  you can’t do that [...]

X4More Review: Zero value products & a 4×10 matrix

Ironically, X4More state in their terms and conditions that the opportunity may not be used ’in connection with chain letters, junk email, pyramid schemes, money games‘. Want to know why? Read on for a review of the X4More business opportunity.

GenieRocket: iWowWe & MyShoppingGenie partner up?

Recently MyShoppingGenie announced a new and upcoming product, RocketGenie. Details have been scarce but from the bits and pieces that have been made public, RocketGenie appears to be a video email and conferencing product. Initially I found this interesting as on the surface MyShoppingGenie appeared to be entering  iWowWe’s territory and going head to head [...]

TVI Express license revoked in Indonesia

TVI Express’ long fought battles with the authorities in Indonesia seems to have come to a head yesterday with the revoking of their ‘business license’. Effective immediately, TVI Express’ business activities in Indonesia have been frozen.

MyShoppingGenie haven’t paid members for 6 months?

Reports of MyShoppingGenie not paying its members started appearing on my radar shortly after I wrote about PreLaunch Australia and its connections to MyShoppingGenie. From what I could gather, due to whatever reason, MyShoppingGenie company hadn’t been paying out its leaders for a while now. The worst of these accounts cited six months with others [...]

Using Zeek Rewards as a pure investment program?

Following the Zeek Rewards review I published yesterday, I got into an interesting discussion with BehindMLM reader ‘Colsta’ about the way he was using Zeek Rewards (you can read the discussion in the comments section of the review linked to above). Completely ignoring the MLM business opportunity or penny auction side of things, instead Colsta [...]

Did PreLaunch Australia ever officially launch?

A few months ago, Sam Fawahl, Bassem Tal and Adam Marks began the viral marketing campaign for PreLaunch Australia. Designed to be the first public membership drive for the trio’s Beehive Strategy, PreLaunch Australia attracted an alleged 36,000+ free signups in just a few short months. The company itself touted this as being ‘the largest [...]

iWowWe Oct 2011 compensation plan v3.66 changes

I’m not entirely sure why, but in what looks like an effort to expand the previous plan, iWowWe announced changes to its compensation plan last Monday which will come into effect starting October 1st, 2011. Changes to the existing compensation plan include new joining options for new members the introduction of membership ranks a new [...]
