4Life Business Review

Posted by Fenix Skai

Background:

4Life Research is a Multilevel Marketing Company that distributes nutritional products like 4Life Transfer Factor intended specifically to strengthen the immune system. The company was founded in 1998 by David and Bianca Lisonbee. Upon joining the company you are encouraged to consume their products and you will make small profits off of your recruits as they consume the product as well. In addition, 4Life Research provides a business opportunity and with bonuses and perks for top distributors within its network marketing business model.

Products:

4Life specializes in the sale of Personal Care (Face Cleanser, Refreshing Toner, Protective Moisturizer, etc... ), Nutritional (Multivitamins, Healthy Meal Replacements, Digestion/ Detox, etc...), Diet and Energy (Metabolite, Energy Sticks, Citri Shakes, etc...) Products. In total, 4Life has over 100 nutritional items within its product portfolio.

Pros:

• Very Low Business Start-Up cost of less than $30 per month to stay active
  

• Unique products that no other distributor carries
  

• Special niche of products that cater to elderly people and pets, one of the view companies that have such products
  

• Great track record of sustained growth over 12 years
  
• 30 Day money back guarantee on all products
  
• 4Life offers various bonuses and incentives for top producing distributors
  

Cons:

• You and your team must maintain minimum sales volume in order to receive any commission at all
  

• 4Life products are not approved by the FDA, which could pose various problems (especially if you would like to market your product and services on the internet)
  

• No real marketing strategy... 4Life advises selling to Friends and Family members (this rarely works because they have all already tried MLM been hounded by other marketers or heard it was a scam)
  
• Another company that adds to the extremely long list of Health and Wellness products that are already on the market today. (Industry is beyond Saturated!)
  

• Your success is still dependant upon your recruits duplicating you (this hurts superstar sellers)
• Very little support and training in the way of marketing and generating quality leads

Conclusion:

In conclusion, 4Life has very unique, affordable and patented products that all come with a 30 day money back guarantee.  There certainly is a great demand for health and wellness products and 4Life has a decent history of sustained growth in this industry for over 12 years. Most importantly, 4Life has a very affordable entry level cost for those that are looking to build a business on a shoe-string budget. What I'm not too crazy about is the fact that you (and your team) must maintain a certain volume of sales in order to be paid monthly. Not only must you maintain certain volume in sales, but you must do it by marketing to only friends and family members. Furthermore, the market is extremely saturated and the product is not FDA approved. Lastly, it just takes entirely too long for the average individual to make any real money here... 12-24 months.  Most will burn out or drop out long before that point.  Therefore, I love the product, but I don't fancy the business model.  However, if you believe in this product and have the desire and the personal commitment to stick in there for 2 years, you can absolutely make this work for you!
