Vendor talks, Usana squawks
Usana Health Sciences (NASDAQ:USNA) had their convention last week, and as predicted, the new “energy drink” REV3 was a big hit! Those fully indoctrinated into the “cult” of Usana believe it is the greatest thing ever!
But not everyone at the convention was in the Usana fog. At least one service provider there saw right through all the hype. He commented here:
I was at USANAs convention this past weekend working [redacted]. It amazed me how many forty year old upper-lower class women who didn’t care for energy drinks had a change of heart when there beloved USANA released Rev3. USANA is not a company, but a religion. They depend on religious fanaticism to continue to sell their product. I firmly believe that i could have [put just about anything] in a cup labeled USANA and I could have sold it for 30 bucks.
That comment was left late Monday night, and by Tuesday, Usana was already on the phone to the service provider, complaining about the comment. So now everyone’s in an uproar because an “outsider” who was at the event tells it like it is.
This is typical from multi-level marketing companies: Silence any critics.
Oh and Tracy, I resent you calling me a liar! I never tell lies, ever!
Don’t even go there!
LOL – Okay, Consumer labs did reviews of a couple of Usana products. What did those reviews say? And what do those couple of reviews have to do with your claims that Wentz is such a respected and revered innovator and researcher? So I’m still seeking proof of your initial claim that Wentz is so fabulous. Still waiting, after over a day of exchanges for you to provide that.
And I don’t think I’ve every said that Usana doesn’t have a decent vitamin. I’m sure their vitamins are just fine. THey’re just terribly overpriced and no better than what one can buy at Target for a fraction of the price.
Besides Tracy the burden of proof is on you, your the one that’s
investigating or examining Usana! At the very least hating on them!
What is your beef with Dr.Wentz anyway? You sound so bitter..
They say that people that are losing their health are often
mean spirited and bitter, Maybe you should check into taking some quality nutritionals..Haha!
Sorry Jason, but that’s not how it works. If you’re going to make a claim, then the burden is on YOU to prove it. I’m not running around making unsubstantiated claims about Usana. Everything I’ve said about the company has been backed up with proof. Again, I understand why you’re not providing proof. It’s because you’re lying and there is no proof. But it’s been fun and I wish you well with your pyramid scheme participation. My health is great, but thanks for your concern.
You haven’t proven that my claims are unsubstantiated!
Somebody needs to look up the word “unsubstantiatd” in the dictionary!
Jason, My comments that Centrum is pharmaceutical grade is based on information provided by USANA which deems it so. If my comments are silly then it is USANA who is silly because it is they who are providing the information.
You’re clearly not paying attention or even making a serious attempt at having a civilized conversation.
