Opportunities

Network marketing is, as you probably know, just another way of doing business. It spreads around the profits rather than restricting profits to only a few people, which is what happens in the traditional retail model. With network marketing, you can create as much income as you like. Network marketing supports a flexible, home-based lifestyle. Some people prefer to market just enough to pay for their own product consumption. Others create full-fledged businesses, supporting themselves and their families quite well. As with everything in life, what you do is up to you! In network marketing, one enters the business opportunity first by using the products yourself and finding products that you really, really like. It doesn't make sense to market products that you don't genuinely support. Once you've found products that you enthusiastically want to share with others, enroll as a distributor with the company (this is usually free, but some companies do require a small registration fee). Read the marketing plan of the company or companies which you have chosen. We have presented below the various marketing plans for the companies which we support, so you can get most of the information you need right here.

Then, begin sharing the products with others. It makes most sense to share the products that have had the greatest positive impact on you. Encourage people to explore what works for them. We all know people who have special needs or interests. For example, people with pets need good pet food, and Flint River Ranch has the best food available for most pets. Give them samples, tell them about the company and about the purity of the foods. Let their pet help them make a decision, through his/her response to the foods. And so on. Never introduce products you don't believe in yourself - maintain high integrity rather than being profit-driven. Our intention at The Essence of Things is to provide pure, truly remarkable products and to support customers coming into greater independence, conservation of cost, and, where indicated, income production through independent distribution. We really do try to be thoughtful in our responses to people who contact us, and are happy to support you in the way you find most comfortable. Please review our website, our product selection and the business opportunities that each product area represents.

A list of the companies follows. Explore the various marketing opportunities. E-mail us for more information and for distributor registration information. Contact us with any questions that you have, at any point in the process.

Flint River Ranch Opportunities

You become a Registered Customer with your first order of Flint River Ranch food. There is no fee to become an Independent Distributor, although there is an annual fee of $35.00 due each July 1st. Simply complete the one-page Associate Information and Applicant Agreement form (available from us by fax or mail), send it to Flint River Ranch, and they will assign you a Distributor Number. Always use that number on orders that you place for yourself and, as you introduce others to the products, on their first orders. They then become Registered Customers and you, as an Independent Distributor, will receive a commission on their purchases. Distributors receive 19% commission for (a) personal purchases totaling 100 Purchase Volume (PV) or more, and (b) purchases by their registered customers. To receive the commission you must purchase $100.00 or more per month (your purchases together with those of your Registered Customers). The commission is structured on PV values with 19% Commission, Bonus Levels 1 @ 5%, 2 @ 4%, 3 @ 3%, 4 @ 2%, and levels 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 @ 1% Bonus.

As an Independent Distributor, you will receive 5% from the company each month for purchases of two generations of your downline distributors and their customers. You then receive decreasing percentages from 8 more generations of distributors and their customers.

We will be happy to send you the Flint River Ranch Business and Marketing Plan brochure.

RGarden/Youngevity Opportunities

Consider this: prosperity is a tree that anyone can grow. All you have to do is plant the right seed and nurture it. You plant this seed by becoming a Distributor of RGarden/Youngevity. Packed within this seed is all the potential of the towering tree. Once sown, it begins to germinate as you learn more about the company, its products, and compensation plan.

How many times have you visited a restaurant for the first time and were so impressed with the food that you told all your friends about it?

Perhaps, some of your friends even ate there based on your recommendation. But, did the restaurant give you any reward for referring others to the business?

A significant part of our business comes from word of mouth referrals. Did you know that we have a program in place to reward members when they tell others about our exceptional products?

When you first ordered from RGarden/Youngevity you were given a Customer (Distributor) number. When you refer someone to our company, just have them give your name and ID number as the person who told them about us. They then become enrolled by you and in your downline.

We pay a commission of 50% of the Bonus Value of the product the first two months a new member orders (within a six month period). Then when they order again in the future we pay commissions accordingly:

To explain it a little bit further it says that you receive a 20% commission for everyone on your first level, 10% commission for everyone on your second level, and 5% commission on the purchases of everyone on your levels 3 through 7. You must also have a personal purchase during the month in order to receive commissions – $50 to receive commissions on the first level and $100 to receive commissions on levels 2 through 7. The volume of your Personally Enrolled Customers also figures into how many levels you receive commissions on. It is $50 to receive commissions on the first level, $250 for the second level, then $500 down to the third, $1,000 to the fourth, $2,500 to the fifth, $5,000 to the 6th and $10,000 down to the 7th level. Month after month, year after year, your prosperity grows as naturally and energetically as growth takes place in a healthy garden. *These figures are hypothetical and do not represent any guarantee that you will earn any money by telling others about our products. There is no assurance that income stated in these examples can be duplicated by you or anyone else. We cannot guarantee your future results and/or success. You are under no obligation to participate in this program. A small administrative fee of $1, plus 5 cents for each ordering person will be deducted from the referral reward each month.

To get started with your Distributorship call RGarden/Youngevity at (509) 738-2345, mention our Distributor Number G44330 and they will send or fax you an application - and Good Luck!
