Vollara Review – Scam Or Legitimate MLM Business?

| May 14, 2011 | 13 Comments

Vollara Review imageWelcome to my Vollara Review!

Vollara is a Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) company with a commitment of providing a life of healthy living, financial stability, and the freedom to live life on your terms.  They do this by providing the tools, training, and experience to help their Distributors build a successful and rewarding business.

In this Vollara Review, I will be examining this company, their products, and more importantly, the MLM business Opportunity that they offer as a Vollara Distributor.  Does Vollara offer a legitimate and promising MLM Business Opportunity, or is this just a scam or pyramid scheme?  This is my unbiased Vollara Review!

Company Details & History

Vollara Logo imageVollara is owned and operated under their parent company of Aerus LLC, a company that was known as Electrolux until 2003.  Aerus LLC has been a leader in floor-care and home health products for more than 85 years, and has serviced more than 50 Million homes around the U.S.

Vollara did not come into existence until January of 2010, and offers 5 products that they believe support 99% of the common health challenges that most individuals face today.

Product Line

Their products are advertised to provide cleaner air, pristine water, and cellular nutrition.  These products include:

  • FreshAir – Air Purifier
  • LivingWater – Water Filtration System
  • Re:Sist – Cell Support
  • Re:Fuel – Cell Nourishment
  • Re:Plenish – Cell Rejuvenation

Vollara utilizes a MLM business model to distribute these products through their growing number of Vollara Distributors, leading us into my review of the Vollara Home Business opportunity:

MLM Business – How it all works

Vollara Product MLM Review imageUnfortunately, Vollara does not disclose the details regarding the initial cost of joining and beginning your business, and reserves this information to be shared only by the person who has introduced you to Vollara.  If you are not in contact with a Distributor, Vollara provides a 1-800 number on their website to match you with a Distributor in your area.

Requirements

In order to qualify for earnings within the Vollara Compensation Plan, you must maintain your Active status with a minimum of 100 in Personal Volume (PV) each month.  However, to earn the maximum bonuses and commissions that their pay plan provides, you must maintain your Active status with 200 PV each month.  1 PV usually equates to just over $1.

Their Autoship Requirement

To help you meet these monthly requirements, Vollara provides their Autoship Program.  Through this program, Vollara will automatically bill and ship these products to your home every month.  This program is optional, but will be highly encouraged when you are going through the enrollment process.

As a Distributor, Vollara will provide you with 9 ways to generate an income as you achieve sales, and recruit new Distributors to do the same.  I will limit the details of their pay plan to this, and at the bottom of this Vollara Review, you will find a link that will provide you with the exact details of how Distributors are compensated within the Vollara Compensation Plan.

Distributor Training & Support

As a brand new Vollara Distributor, you will be trained and encouraged to prospect among your friends, relatives, acquaintances, neighbors, and co-workers to sell their products.  You will recruit those within your ‘Warm Market’ who express an interest in the opportunity to join your team as a new Vollara Distributor.

As you enroll new Distributors, you will train and mentor them to utilize these same tactics.  These traditional methods of Network Marketing, or what I like to refer to as Warm Marketing, will be the basis of your new Distributor training.

Vollara Review Conclusion

In my opinion, Vollara is a legitimate MLM business, and is not a scam.  This is a young Network Marketing business, but they have a tremendously strong financial backing, being part of a family of direct selling companies that generate more than $300 Million annually.

However, it is important to consider the challenges of building a business that is dependent upon your friends and family members purchasing products, and joining your business opportunity.  This is where I believe Vollara is falling short.  It is a proven statistic that 97% of those who practise Warm Marketing methods fail in this MLM industry, proving that these tactics are not the most effective way to build a long-term business.

Food for thought…

Building a successful MLM business is dependent upon your ability to generate 25+ leads each and every day.  If you are able to generate this kind of lead flow, you will never have any problem building a wildly successful Vollara Business.

However, generating this lead flow can prove extremely difficult if you are limited to those who you know personally.  Unless you are able to utilize more modern and effective marketing strategies, building a successful Vollara business will prove to be tremendously more difficult than they might portray or make it appear.

In my opinion, if you possess a marketing skill-set that is not dependent upon friends and family only, I believe that Vollara offers a solid business opportunity with high-quality and high-demand products.

      Hi,
      I think that your article is great.I have just started business with Vollara. I have put Green Technology ads recommended by the company in many states, with some responses to my ad. Part of it says an excellent compensation offered. Wow! With all my work, I wonder where is my compensation? I don’t have money to buy any of their products, and most of the callers to the ad, don’t have money either to invest in the Vollara products! I don’t have calls to friends or family, so I’m not dependent on them. I’m supposed to have 100 PV’s this month. If no one buys or orders anything, then no 100 PV’s for me. Am I being deceived and others too?? What do you think? Please let me know soon by email. Have a good week-end.

      • Dave Fennell says:

        Hello Constance,

        I apologize for the late response. I have been running 20 different directions. I would not say that you are being deceived. However, building a Vollara or any other sort of MLM business is NEVER going to be as simple as they advertise the business opportunity to be. Many companies like to portray that their business opportunity is as simple as sharing the products and customers will come running. A business like Vollara will never be this easy. In fact, 97% of distributors do fail in building a business of this nature.

        This business will take time, and is not to be confused as a quick fix to a short-term income problem. While posting ads might work in the long-term, if you are not seeing short-term results, you might think about diversifying your marketing efforts.

        I hope that this helps, and best of luck.

          I too have just started as an associate with Vollara. Your review says training will be provided. I have received no training and feel I have been kicked to the wolves. It is true, it doesn’t cost anything to get your name on their list. Other than that you are on your own. You are forced to buy the product. No one will take your word, you have to have proof, and you have to buy products in order to show what you are promoting. I was told company offers easy pay. It should be called easy pay NOT. You are required to buy a 3 pack which is over $2000. They required $600 on day you order and then 4 consecutive payments of $600. I feel this is a company who supports the rich. They could care less if you are poor. This multi-million dollar company should really help people get started and they should conduct formal training on their products. So far I have had no luck selling anything. Your are right, I can see why 96% of associates fail. After investing $2000 I have a feeling, I will be next and be in $2000 more debt. NOT IMPRESSED.

    • Dave Fennell says:

      Hi there,

      I just switched themes yesterday, and have been working out some issues. One of which was the RSS Feed. Although, it seemed that I was able to fix it earlier today. It should have been working by the time that you were on my site. It seems to be working ok now. Please let me know if you have any more issues.

      Thank you for letting me know!
