In my years in the MLM industry I have seen complaints about just about every MLM program I have ever looked at. It is for that reason that I am not surprised to see the number of Ardyss International complaints that are floating around out there in the echo chamber commonly called the internet.

To start with, some of the Ardyss International complaints or MLM complaints in general, are in fact valid. Whether a given product is worth its cost is completely subjective to the consumer. Complaints about the price or the effects of the product are valid because the consumer’s feelings are valid, but they are ultimately just opinion.

Many of the Ardyss International complaints are accusations of false or misleading advertising. This is true of any MLM program, not just Ardyss. These complaints typically focus on either the product, or the business opportunity provided by the MLM program. The question is, are such accusations valid?

Let us first consider the Ardyss International complaints that focus on the product. Is it falsely advertised? Honestly, sometimes. This is not emblematic of the whole organization, or most of its distributors. However with the accessibility of MLM programs there will always be some people who join the program and then resort to false claims about the product in a desperate attempt to improve their results.

Then there are the Ardyss International complaints that argue that the viability of the multilevel marketing system as a business is overstated. I have seen these kinds of complaints more times than I can count in reference to dozens of multilevel marketing systems regardless of how sound they might be. The usual points of contention stem from the alluring promise of getting paid to do nothing from home, and being something anybody can succeed at.

As for the Ardyss International complaints that focus on the business, they tend to split into complaints about some of the widely popularized benefits of an MLM business. MLM businesses are often described as being something that anybody can do. They are also touted as being an opportunity for people to derive an income from their business without needing to work. While both of these statements are true, the MLM business is by no means simple or clean cut.

It is also true that anybody can succeed with a MLM business. Anybody can succeed, if they know the necessary marketing techniques that anybody needs to succeed in MLM. You cannot change a light bulb without a ladder, so how do you expect to succeed in a marketing business if you do not know how to market?

The Ardyss International complaints out there are all variations of the same complaints lodged against any MLM product. Usually people who complain about a MLM Business have either tried on their self, or knew somebody who did, and had terrible results. If you take the time to educate yourself on marketing, you can avoid joining the ranks of the dissatisfied.

MLM programs are not new to me. In my years working in the MLM industry I realized there was a real shortage of unbiased reviews out there, so I decided to start doing my own. In this article I will be reviewing Ardyss Internation.

I have reviewed lots of MLM businesses other than Ardyss International, and I have always used the same elegant system to do so. By focusing on simple but important and universal aspects of MLM offers I am able to review them all from a detached and unbiased position.

The three things I always look at when reviewing an MLM opportunity like Ardyss International are the product, the company, and the marketing materials. Obviously any MLM product will have these three components, which is why this system is so useful.

Let us go ahead and start with the product, or rather the product lines, available from Ardyss International. Their primary product line would be their body reshaping garments, like the Body Magic. They have also introduced lines of both health supplements and skin care products, though I cannot help but point out the stiff competition that exists in both of those industries.

Ardyss International is based in Las Vegas, incorporated in 1991. The company’s history probably predates that as a small business. While Ardyss originally targeted Latin American markets, they have been reaching into the US market more and more through their multilevel marketing distribution.

Last, and honestly, least, is the already developed Ardyss International marketing plan. Sure a solid and easily duplicated marketing system is a plus, but it is a long way from a must. The truth is real success in Ardyss International or any other MLM business is going to depend on the distributors marketing knowledge and their ability to use that knowledge effectively.

In the end success with Ardyss International, or any other MLM, is going to depend on the marketing knowledge of the distributor. No matter how good the product, how solid the company, and how effective the marketing materials may be, if the distributor does not know how to market effectively they will not succeed.

I strongly suggest anybody considering Ardyss International, or any other MLM Business; take the time to educate their self on effective marketing techniques. Doing so will give them the know how to turn any MLM product into a financial winner.

Just like any other MLM product, there are people out there willing to cry foul to anybody who will listen about the dangers of the Ardyss scam. I always take scam accusations seriously, but I have found in my research that all too often in the multilevel marketing business people say something is wrong when in fact nothing is wrong. I feel it is important to look at any claims seriously and I use a systematic approach any time I investigate one.

Essentially I mostly focus on two things when looking at a multilevel marketing program that has been called a scam. The actual product, and the business, typical complaints about a scam are focused on either of these key elements and the Ardyss scam is no different from any other MLM program in this regard.

So let us take a look at the product line and see if there is an Ardyss scam to be found there. Ardyss has a diverse line of products that includes health supplements and skin care products as well as their core line of body reshaping garments. I will be honest, I find myself questioning how well some Ardyss products, like their memory improving health supplement actually work. That being said, body reshaping clothing is anything but a new concept.

Even though some products may be more placebo than packed with power, I feel confident that the primary product would perform as intended, their body reshaping products can effectively change the shape of a person’s body through regular use, even if it is only by conditioning the body to perpetually try to suck in the stomach or sit up straight. I feel proclaiming this catalog is an Ardyss scam seems heavy handed and incorrect to me.

Now does this mean that the Ardyss scam is a multilevel marketing business opportunity? In my experience lots of people call MLM businesses scams when they feel they do not live up to the all too familiar promise of either easy wealth, or do they feel it is fair to claim that anyone can succeed in an MLM business.

Truth is it is entirely possible to transform an MLM business into an easy reliable source of steady income. This does not take place overnight however, it is not easy to develop an MLM business to this level, you are probably looking at anywhere from several weeks, months, or years depending on the goals you set. Be ready to put in allot of hard work to develop a MLM business to this level.

It is also true that anybody can succeed as the owner of an MLM business. Anybody can succeed, assuming of course that they have the requisite marketing knowledge necessary to effectively sell the product and grow their network. Trying to succeed in MLM without understanding marketing is like trying to measure a room without a tape measure.

If you want to find success, and not cry, “Ardyss Scam!” as you become increasingly frustrated with your MLM Business, you need a solid grasp of the essential marketing principles that allow you to succeed in any MLM venture regardless of the product.

Every time I review a multilevel marketing program I always consider the same three things, product, company, and marketing materials. By using the same three criteria it enables me to make a relatively objective assessment of a MLM program.

I want to focus on the Ardyss brochures available to distributors as marketing materials in this article, so I’m going to be moving very quickly through my analysis of both the product and the company.

To start with there is not an Ardyss product, or a few, no there are lots of Ardyss products. They have three lines, their reshaping garments, their skin care products, and their health supplements.

A program with the number of options that Ardyss has is certainly good, but both health supplement and skin care are fiercely competitive industries. Unique is always best when looking at a product.

Now let’s get into the marketing materials, namely the Ardyss brochures. These brochures espouse the various benefits of a number of their products while containing an area that distributors can use to place their own contact information. They can even be put up on websites in digital formats like the pdf file.

With the impact the internet has had on the MLM industry the digital delivery of brochures can be highly effective, not to mention there is no money to be spent on printing hard copies or buying ink.

Testimonials are pretty popular because good ones can be so moving, but I do not like them. I have seen too many testimonials that were reused or obviously fabricated, and I am sure I am not the only one. This is why I prefer more informative materials like the Ardyss brochures. When I see a testimonial my inner cynic starts to scream.

In the end, success with a MLM Business depends on the marketing skills of the business owner. The Ardyss brochures are helpful, sure, but the only way to achieve real success is with a solid understanding of effective marketing. Knowing how to market well will give you the ability to turn any MLM product or program into a financial success.

I am going to be honest, multilevel marketing compensation plans can sometimes be confusing and the Ardyss compensation plan is no different. It is not that the Ardyss plan is radically different from most MLM compensation plans, but all of these plans tend to be loaded with jargon which can be highly intimidating if you are new to the MLM industry.

Obviously the first portion of the Ardyss compensation plan, or any MLM compensation plan, is the profits that come from retail sales. Like any MLM, Ardyss distributors purchase their products from the parent company, in this case Ardyss, at wholesale price.

The suggested retail mark up for Ardyss products is 40 percent, and that is no small slice. While it might be tempting to try cutting your profit margin in an attempt to boost volume, undercutting is not necessary for boosting sales in multilevel marketing.

With effective marketing you should have no problem moving your product at the suggested retail price. Not only will you not have to worry about upsetting other distributors, you will be increasing your own earnings by boosting your volume without cutting into your profit margin.

Why is it so important to generate volume in sales? Simple, promotions in the Ardyss compensation plan are rewarded the same way they are in any other MLM plan, which is to say that your promotions, and the increased earning potential of expanding your commissions from a larger and larger network is based upon your group’s ability to consistently need product.

Since recruiter’s commissions are based on the whole sale orders of their recruits, the more recruits, and the more active they are, the more money you make. As you build your network and climb the promotion ladder you begin to receive commissions from network members farther and farther from you, and that is where you can start making big money.

On top of these relatively normal provisions, the Ardyss compensation plan also includes a number of bonuses. You are eligible for bonuses for recruiting new distributors, for the orders made by your recruits, and meeting certain sales goals on the group and personal level.

If you want to climb your way to the top of the Ardyss compensation plan you need to have the necessary marketing skills to build your MLM business, both in terms of sales and recruits. If you use good marketing accomplishing both of these goals and succeeding in any MLM Business easily comes within reach.

I have written quite a few reviews of various multilevel marketing programs. After spending years in the MLM industry I developed a process I used to evaluate any MLM program and it is that process I use to write my reviews. With all this experience I know what to expect from quality MLM reviews, including Ardyss reviews.

The first thing you should look for in Ardyss reviews or any MLM reviews is a method that is used to fairly evaluate the MLM product in question. If you are looking at reviews that spend all their time talking about how great the product is, it is fair to say you are not actually looking at an honest or unbiased opinion.

For example, my method of analyzing prospective MLM businesses consists of looking at three key factors, the product, the company, and the company’s marketing. I use these concepts in not just my Ardyss reviews, but my reviews of any MLM product. Obviously different reviewers may have their own systems, but you should see some system that cannot only be applied to the product mentioned specifically in the review, but any other MLM product out there as well.

True Ardyss reviews will be honest and unbiased. Any reviews that only focus on a product’s benefits should be considered with skepticism. No matter how good I think the Ardyss Body Magic might be at reshaping a woman’s body, it is just a body reshaping garment. The decision by Ardyss to involve themselves in the crowded health supplement and skin care product industries speaks volumes.

A definite plus in my book for Ardyss is the company history. They were incorporated back in 1991 which basically means they have nearly twenty years of experience producing the body shaping garments which is their main product. I appreciate the willingness to expand into other product lines that they have demonstrated, but I have concerns about the fields that they have expanded into. This is the kind of impartial analysis that you should find in quality Ardyss review.

The final and perhaps least important thing to consider when looking at an MLM business is the marketing system already in place. Ardyss does have tools in place that make it easier than ever for distributors to use the internet to build their business, but it takes real marketing knowledge to achieve lasting success.

There are bound to be “Ardyss reviews” out there that are more sales pitch than review, but there is plenty of quality information out there on the internet. The internet has revolutionized MLM Business not only as a distribution channel, but more importantly as a place to find information on how to market effectively.

In conclusion, the best Ardyss reviews will take an honest look at the company, both its good and bad aspects. It should be no surprise to find such reviews emphasizing the importance of developing your own marketing strategy to achieve success with the product.
