A new report by Fraud Discovery Institute contrasts the two Usanas that exist. There is one Usana story told to potential distributors (make lots of money!) and a different story told to Wall Street (only 12% actually want to make money!).
There’s one story about Research & Development given to the media (we are cutting edge - we spend lots!), and a different story told by the financial statements (Usana spends less than 1% of net sales on R&D).
There’s one truth about losing money with the Usana business opportunity (Dave Wentz says it only happens if you throw vitamins in the garbage), and a reality experienced by many failed distributors like Jane Bishop (she lost $5,000).
The media is told that Usana associates make lots of money, but Usana’s own documents show that:
- 72.2% of commission is paid to the top 2.6% of associates
- 67% of associates don’t even receive a dime in commissions
- 86% of associates don’t even make enough in commissions to pay for their vitamins
I wonder what the Usana executives have to say about this…
