Sisel International – Review of Top MLM Businesses

There’s been a lot of buzz on the internet recently about Sisel and Tom Mower, Sr., its founder. I have been approached by numerous people to get involved in what have been referred to as the best MLM of all time. Everyone has been bragging about Sisel’s new 400,000-square-foot manufacturing facility and Tom Mower’s new 65,000-square-foot home. The question, however, is whether Sisel will sizzle or fizzle out. Or is it all sizzle and no steak?

HISTORY:

Sisel was founded in 2006 by Tom Mower, Sr. and his two sons. Until very recently, the marketing focus has been on eleven foreign countries. The reason may be due to Mr. Mower’s sale of his previous company, Neways, which had a similar product line. There may be a non-compete clause that prevented Sisel from selling in the United States. In any case, Neways was a tremendous success and was sold by Tom Mower for $700 million. Presumably he used that money to build a 400,000-square-foot state-of-the-art manufacturing facility and a new 65,000-square-foot home in Utah. Recently, Sisel has entered the

the US market.

Products:

The product line consists primarily of health and wellness products. The emphasis seems to be on liquid nutrition, weight loss products, and anti-aging products.

The balance of the product line seems very similar to that of Amway. They recently introduced a new weight loss lollipop.

COMPETENCE:

Competition in the liquid nutrition market is fierce. Companies like Noni Juice, Xango, Frutaiga, Monavie, Freelife, and Gogi Juice all compete for the same consumer dollar. Each claims that their product is better. Ultimately, the FDA is trying to crack down on the companies that make these products because of exaggerated claims.

COST TO BECOME A DEALER:

The initial cost is only $20.00. However, in the real world, to earn real money, it is recommended that you purchase a $350.00 Product Starter Pack and commit to a $100.00 per month autoship plan.

COMPENSATION PLAN:

The plan is 12 pages long and full of legalese. That’s why I didn’t even try to read and digest it. The company claims it is very lucrative.

TRAINING AND SUPPORT:

There seems to be very little training. Representatives are apparently encouraged to try to recruit friends, family and relatives, and invite people to hotel gatherings and house parties.

INTERNET MARKETING POLICY:

Sisel has a very strict policy on online marketing and advertising and the use of social media. They do allow a personal website, but only if approved by the company and you pay an annual fee of $1000.00. Oh! In my opinion, this is a huge mistake as it essentially prevents reps from marketing to 1.7 billion people on the internet.

However, I was seriously intrigued by the company’s history until a close friend pointed out that there were some serious legal skeletons in the closet. This, along with the ban on online marketing, caused him to pass up this opportunity.

I encourage you not to rely solely on this article, but to do your own due diligence. I also want to encourage you to do a thorough Google search for any past or current legal history of both the business and the property. This applies not only to Sisel but to any company that is exploring.
