Shaklee – The Business and the Compensation Plan

Read Time:2 Minute, 48 Second

In 1915, Dr. Forrest C. Shaklee created “vitalized minerals,” one of the first multivitamins in the world. When he founded Shaklee Corporation in 1956, he helped pioneer both the nutritional supplement industry and a distribution method that rewards word-of-mouth referrals.

It is headquartered in Pleasanton, California. Shaklee claims it is the number one natural nutrition company in the United States. Roger Barnett purchased Shaklee in 2004 and has been running it since then. Shaklee is in the business of natural vitamins and supplements. In 1960 when everybody else was celebrating plastic and synthetic materials, Shaklee turned to nature–finding the purest natural ingredients for vitamins and making one of the first biodegradable household cleaners ever.

Shaklee Corporation continues to lead the way in the belief that the health and prosperity of people and the planet offer the greatest hope for a better world.

Continuing their efforts in helping to improve the planet, they have replaced paper cups with Shaklee mugs and water glasses, offer tote bags in their company store, recycle biodegradable plates, utensils, and paper used at employee events, and more.

They offer the highest quality natural nutrition and personal care products, environmentally-friendly household products, and state-of-the-art air and water treatment systems that have helped millions enjoy a healthier life.

They were the first company in the world to obtain Climate Neutral™ certification and totally offset their CO2 emissions, resulting in a net zero impact on the environment.

They have four major product lines. They include nutritional supplements, a healthy weight loss line called CINCH, an all natural cleaning line of products known as Get Clean, and a skin care product line called Enfuselle.

Shaklee conducts extensive scientific research for its products and subsequently develops them. Shaklee preserves high standards for its products like starting with the finest raw materials and maintaining correct levels of ingredients to produce the best quality product.

Shaklee is about living life on your own terms, on your own schedule. There are three clear steps to earning the rewards of a great living. These are – use Shaklee products to make yourself healthier, share the products with others, and mentor others to do what you’re doing. Paying it forward pays you back.

Instead of a set salary in a career that builds someone else’s income dream, your Shaklee business is your own and has no income limit. What you put in is what you get out.

The person that introduced you to Shaklee often is the same person that becomes your coach and mentor. As you use products, share products and mentor others, this mentor may help you develop a pattern in your work.

You can also join as a member for $19.95, a distributor for $39.95, and as a gold ambassador with a super gold mission pack for $750.

While there are other ways to join, they suggest you become a gold ambassador with a $299 mission pack.

This type of business-in-a-box provides everything you need to start, own, and operate your own business, including your application fee, a free product coupon, a variety of Shaklee’s products, three months of your own personal website, marketing and training materials, and the rights to do business anywhere in the world Shaklee does business.

After the three months of your own personal website, then what?
