Please allow me to input some info. Yes, I am a Viridian Associate, and yes I signed up upon finding this thread, and yes, this is my first post.
I have always been skeptical of MLM, Network and Direct marketing. I went to many meetings over the past 20 years and never did anything, until Viridian.
It’s simple, no products to carry, and it sells itself for the most part.
It does cost money to be an associate, from $99 to $399(which I paid) depending on what products and where you will be able to sell them.
You get a fast start bonus of $300 if you switch 15 customers in 90 days. I did it in less than a month, and people under me have done it too. I received my first pay yesterday, I made my initial investment, and then some back. It is ALL profit from here on out.
You do NOT get paid a penny to recruit other associates, like many MLM models, you only get paid on customers. Read that again, it was one of the main reasons I joined up, besides the fact that customers pay NOTHING, nor do they sign contracts or charged fees if they switch back.
People say they have heard they raise the rates substantially after awhile?!?!? What would that do to Viridian? It would cause people to leave, and their business would crumble.
They can afford to pay their associates because they do not advertise, and work on a much smaller profit margin than others, simple as that.
I have nothing to gain by posting here, I just hope to clear up misinformation. I believe in this with all my heart, and the company treats it’s associates, customers, and the environment great!
