In March of 2002 John Anderson along with Jim and Kathy Coover put their minds together and formed the company Isagenix.  Their mission was to create a product line of “No Compromise Formulas” to fight out fight fat and leave you looking and feeling healthier.  John Anderson is not only a founder he is the formulator of their weight loss products.  Before Isagenix, he had developed over 2300 weight loss products for over 600 companies in 27 countries.  The Isagenix International Headquarters is located in Chandler, Arizona but their products are marketed internationally. 

A press release came out in July of 2006 stating that Isagenix is thriving with almost $10 million in sales in May of 2006.  According to Kathy Coover the associates are getting a good chunk of this money.  Isagenix now has 5 associates making $25,000/week, 12 are getting close to joining the millionaires, and over 70 associates are making 6 figure incomes.  To date, Isagenix has been recognized as one of the fastest growing companies in the industry and featured in magazines, books, and fitness videos around the world.

Isagenix offers a line of products that all tie in to the same goal, a healthy appearance. There are 3 main categories that their products fall under; cleansers meant to naturally cleanse your body providing proper nutrition for a healthy foundation, nutritional supplements in the form of capsules, shakes, etc, and skin care products designed to keep your skin looking healthy and young.  Before anything hits the market it is tested and most likely endorsed by a doctor who performed a trial.  Isagenix states that all of their products are natural leaving each one with very few possible side effects.

If you would like to distribute for Isagenix it will cost $49 for an “Isagenix Associate Support System” package.  They encourage you to also purchase a “value pak” that contains several products for you to use which could be your form of a live demonstration.  Once you have signed up to be an associate you must work your way up the ranks; consultant, executive and then golden circle star ratings. Isagenix claims that they have a guaranteed 50% payout, but go on to explain that “if” they do not hold up to this it is only because the money has been put into an escrow account to ensure money for future payouts.  The average pay to associates is $122 a YEAR which was reported in 2005 (50% of all their teams fall in this category).  Once you finally make it to consultant the average is $588 with 47% falling in this category.  According to these charts until you make it to Leadership Status you will not be making enough to live on.  You must be a part of the 2 Star Golden Circle to be making a decent yearly living of $35,515 (average for 2005).  After viewing their whole compensation plan it appears to be very unstable.
