Agel Enterprises on the cover looks like a great opportunity for the average person to create success. They have hip and trendy looking products, flashy field leadership and a good story. What about Agel caused me to leave? What did I see that caused me to get out?

Agel’s team members receive fixed volumes of their products on specified dates under a system known as autoship. There is a commission for selling these, i.e. $6.50 for selling two cases of the stuff. This in itself is hardly gives the members any income worth its name. Then how do Agel’s marketers keep going? To make any reasonable money, they have to go on recruiting people right and left into the two lines under them. A recruiter is entitled to $200 for initiating a recruit into the higher line under him and $35 for initiating a recruit into the lower line. The higher and lower membership categories are fixed on the basis of the monthly autoship volume recruits agree to buy. The recruiter is also entitled to commissions on the volumes his team members sell. In short, without a long line of recruits trailing behind him as toiling ants, a member has no survival.

Agel’s categories of nutritional supplements are packaged in a gel. The products are touted to give people optimum health. Maybe it will, but at the company’s rate of pricing, a family of four can remain healthy only by shelling out at least $800 on nutritional supplements. The products are, anyway, seductively packed and those who can afford may now and then choose to flirt a little with any of these. For others, it is better to go in for fresh fruits or salads to find their nutrition rather than get it suspended in Agel’s gel.

I joined Agel to take the products and see if the business has anything too offer. My downline quickly grew with large volumes. While this was exciting what happened next was not too encouraging. Those volumes dropped 50% or more within a few months as people continued to drop out faster than they were coming in.

Everything about Agel is mediocre. Their business plan is nothing to write home about. Nor are their products exceptionally good. It may not be a fraud because they are not cheating anyone. But then it is not very good also.
