Juice Plus

[autumnleaves]

Sorry if there is already a thread on this, I have looked three times, but couldn't see one. I was recently asked to join someone's team of Juice Plus.
However, I was told it's not "selling" but blowing its trumpet on social media. Surely this is just annoying to friends and family and if you're having to fork out for the products itself to enable you to rave about it, how do you make money? It's not exactly cheap stuff!
Obviously everyone I see on my Facebook who sells it says their life has changed and money worries are gone etc. This sounds too good to be true to me - what's everyone's experience? I'd love to know as I am genuinely tempted.

You are right in that there is no dedicated thread for Juice+. The reason for this is we have yet to find a rep who can fight their corner and be honest about their opportunity. I had a friend come here who was raving about it some months ago, made a couple of posts saying it was the greatest thing she had done but I'm pretty sure she has packed it in.

Jon and I have tried to get a rep over here to post about the company but no-one seems to want to.

When you sign up look forward to reading the Chinese studies or whatever it is they point you to use when it comes to dealing with doubters who questions juice+ and it's amazing berry based properties and benefits

Sound like my "too good to be true" thoughts will win out on this one!

It can and does work but it relies on you really knowing and loving the product. You need to convince people how great it will make them feel and that cutting out all the foods they love in replace of a shake is something they want to do or that taking 12 or so tablets a day is just as good as eating a few pieces of fruit. A friend at my son's school has been doing it a few months and loves the product, she's lost a good few stone but I'm more convinced that has happened because she has removed dairy, gluten, wheat and other things from her diet.

There are loads of direct selling opportunities around this site, if that is something you are looking for but find something you know you'll love because that is the thing you are most likely to be successful with BUT there are loads of none DS opportunities, take your time to have a look for something that suit you best

I follow someone on Facebook who genuinely believes he is curing his cancer with this, charcoal patches on his feet and some vibrating stomach device. Meanwhile he is looking more and more gaunt and sounding more crazy.

Not someone I know personally btw or I might not be so nonchalant about it.

If its not NHS endorsed then 99.9% of the time its a load of bull...sorry juice plusers.

Did you see on the news today the woman who died because she bought diet pills off the internet that literally fried her insides?

Truly scary. I've bought things like that myself before online in my younger, stupider days.

There are just too many people who are happy to take these kinds of pills and potions which are not medically proven. Saying one of their pills can replace your whole days fruit and veg just sounds downright irresponsible. I have come across a few juice plus reps and what's even worse is that they give this stuff to their children too. Who knows what's in it really? Its supposed to be powdered fruit and veg but can you even do that, turn fruit and veg into powder? If you can, why is no one else doing it?

Any sort of juice is going to be better for you than sitting eating chips or chocolate.

I'm not convinced though that Juice Plus offers any benefits which you wouldn't be able to get from buying your own fruit and juicing it at home, or from eating a healthy balanced diet.

It's also VERY expensive and is old hat now in terms of MLM. Juice plus was 2013, Younique was 2014, looks like Jeunesse is going to be 2015.

Its not actually juice though its powder you either take in capsules or mix with milk to make a protein shake. The name is really misleading.

I think the name was just an attempt to jump on the juicing fad bandwagon

IS the Jeunnesse thing from Montagne Jeunesse? I doubt it but I LOVE their face masks!

I don't think it is. Jeunesse are the instantly ageless distributors...they do other products, apparently

 

[EsElleK]

Montagne Jeunesse is a different company. Jeunesse has the Luminesce range which includes a peel off face mask. I like the montagne foot cooler in the summer and their foot scrub!

Well, after talking to a few friends who were taking the products, I decided to give them a go myself (spoke to non reps for the honest opinion the products) I have found the capsules are really helping me, so I've joined as a rep. I've lost weight (not cutting out everything they say to either!) and my skin, hair and nails are all looking much better and I'm sleeping much better at night, a problem I've long suffered with. I decided to try the products, as I've had a couple of health scares in the last year and just wanted to put some goodness back into my body, as I hardly ever hit my five-a-day on my own, and I was always tired, but still couldn't sleep. Thankfully, my energy levels are now on the rise

I can tell you that baseline earnings are 10% commission, then as you hit targets, the commission goes up and you can earn bonuses. I'm yet to do this, but I'm only just starting out. The investment is £50 to join the company.

I'm still learning as I go, so please don't shoot me down in flames. I'm just sharing the knowledge I have of the company so far.

Ah man you just did this exact near enough post over at the green site
