MultiLeveler Profile: Emerald Passport
emeraldp.jpgEmerald Passport is a direct selling company with an Australian 2-up compensation plan. The Australian 2-up plan means that a person's first 2 sales go directly to the person that recruited you into the program (or someone higher up).

Emerald Passport has a couple of twists on the 2-up compensation plan. Basically the compensation plan is really an Aussie 4-up, because your purchase plus your first 2 sales and your group's first sale, all "go up", with no money going to you.

Once you complete your 4 sales (of $1295 each) you qualify to earn $1,000 on each sale you make.

Sale of what?

Emerald Passport sells educational materials on the subjects of wealth, entrepreneurism, financial planning, real estate and success. The company values the products at over $7,000 and they are sold for $1295. For a few more details on the products, click here.

Tribble's Take: My biggest concern with this company is the true value of the products. The company only gets $295 per sale for a product they value at over $7,000. That doesn't seem right to me. People don't sell $7,000 worth of stuff for $295. They just don't. If you find a car valued at $7,000 and it is for sale at $295, please call me.

My other concern has to do with the compensation plan. The average person in Network Marketing recruits one person. In Emerald Passport, you must recruit 3 before you can make a penny and then you never make any money on the sales downline from those 3 folks (it all goes up). I  would not recommend this company for a first time networker.

Regarding the value of the products offered by Emerald Passport, I think your conclusions are in error.

If I value a product at $7000 and I can only sell one product, then $7000 dollars is the price. However, if I take the same product and for very little extra cost I can duplicate it thousands of times and thus lower the cost of the product to each customer and ultimately make more profit - why would I not do this?

I have looked at Emerald Passport as a business opportunity and I've looked at their products. They may very well be worth $7000 dollars, but only if the person buying them actually uses the information.

From a marketing stand point I think it's much easier to sell the product packages at $1,295 then one package at $7,000
don't you?
