4Life Review – Is this a legit business or a scam

Thank you for visiting my 4life review on IBuyIReview! In the network marketing world, health and wellness are among its biggest markets, and 4Life is one of the largest companies in the market. I decided to review it after coming across some people from the company trying to recruit me to join them. I paid the membership fee so that I could write a non-biased review based on first-hand information and experience.

Their compensation plan is named “Life Reward Plan.” As an MLM, the compensation plan is based on the product you sell directly to customers and the people you have recruited into the company (and their success).

Their payouts are among the highest in the network marketing industry. They pay up to 64% on the LP, and the payments are made four times in a month. You earn LP based on your sales, and they are used to determine your compensation level. Since it is an MLM, you earn commissions from the sales of members in your downline (the people you recruit into the company, and the people they recruit).

Verdict

Enrollment

Pros

  1. It is a company that has been around for over a decade, therefore offers some stability as it is unlikely to close shop out of the blues like other MLM companies do.
  2. You can buy their products at a wholesale price that is legitimate.

Cons

  1. Their products are very expensive.
  2. It is much cheaper to buy their products from Amazon than from distributors (who have to make a profit).
  3. It is hard to reach the highest levels of their compensation plan, which pay much better than the lower ones.

Thank you for reading this 4Life Review. If you want to earn from 4Life, you will have to put lots of effort to get to the top, where the money is. Even though it is a legit company, you end up spending more money than you make. You should invest your money elsewhere.
