To Be Concluded
Here we end with the Modere Compensation Plan. Now, let us move to the most asked question.
Is Modere a Scam?
No, Modere is not a scam. It is a product-based direct selling company like DoTerra, Total Life Changes and VeloVita.
Modere is not a money-circulation Ponzi or Pyramid Scheme. Distributors are paid on personal and downline product sales.
MLM is legal in most countries and Modere is operating for many years. It has a large customer base in many countries, origin country of the USA is Modere’s prime market.
But as many people fail in MLM, the decision of joining this MLM company should be made wisely.
Complicated Compensation Plan
We have reviewed many MLM companies and we experienced Modere has a highly complicated compensation plan. Modere has two types of distributors (Promoter and Builder) and several points (OP, CV, EOP, etc.) are used, which makes incomes difficult to understand for distributors.
Calculation of incomes is challenging and distributors have to build large downlines and need huge sales to earn a decent commission.
Overpriced Products
Like most MLMs, Modere products are overpriced if we compare them to the retail market.
Requirements for regular products purchase create a burden for distributors and they do stockpile to maintain and grow ranks. As a result, one needs to learn essential MLM skills to succeed.
Not limited to that, Modere products have also been involved in various controversies.
Controversies
In April 2020 FTC issued a warning letter against Modere for deceptive health and earning claims related to Covid-19. FTC blamed Modere for the unlawful advertisement of products & opportunities.
In 2016 and 2020, Nerium and Isagenix respectively alleged Modere for stealing their distributors.
In 2018, Modere shut down its operation in most Asian countries. Less popularity and too expensive products for these markets can be reasons behind it.
