Lol, this is spreading like wild fire. My GF's landlord told me about it, I went to a few meetings and presentations and decided it was not for me. He is a member now and he works his butt off. Has meetings almost every night, holds conventions at his house every weekend. Lacks sleep and completely neglects his family. After a few weeks he got real pushy and tried to pressure me to join. After that I decided to avoid it like the plague. I don't know if it is legit or not since I decided not to join. If you are planning on joining be very careful. They tell you that only 5-10 hours a week is enough to make your business work, I believe it takes a lot more than that. Plus if you join you have to order only from their website, that includes food, cleaning products and household items. Its the only way to meet the point quota. So you can say goodbye to most name products that you're used to buying in the store. And if you really want to make money you have to "recruit " people. Hope this helps, make your own decision its not for everyone but it might work for you. I don't think its a scam if that's what you're asking.

I am not with Quixtar, but a lot of people who once were in quixtar switched to the company I am with. I'm with Stayin Home and Lovin It! and they are partnered with a wellness company that is 21 years old and in good starting as a member of the Better Business Buerau. If you like the basic set up of quixtar this company has them topped. They have higher commission payouts and a much lower starting cost. Also a great support team that will make sure you can succeed. There is no selling door-to-door, no taking orders, and no delivery making and also no risk. All is refundable if it does not work for you and also no preasure. I enjoy it very much and they also have strong ethics, and not all hyped up to a riddiculus level. More down to earth good people. Also they have not once changed there name in the 21 years they have been around. There is no need. Quixtar is a legit company, but a very difficult company to sell. If you would like more information go to http://healthybetterme.com/ and fill out the get more information section. It can't hurt to get a little information and you will not be preasured or called repeatedly if you are not interested. I hope you find what you are looking for. Please becareful when looking for a work at home company because most promises are untrue and many get hurt. Stick with companies with a strong background and remember that the support you recieve makes all the difference. I owe so much to the woman who brought me to this company for helping me every step of the way. Good Luck!

Quixtar is by far the most successful company of it's type. There's always new companies saying "we're better!!" but so often 5 years later they've disappeared.
Quixtar takes time and effort, but in my opinion for those who treat it like a business it's the best opportunity out there. If you're interested in people's experiences, I'm collecting Testimonials on my site - http://www.thetruthaboutquixtar.com. Click on the Testimonials link.
PS Dangerous Danny - please don't spread lies. You don't have to "only shop from their website", that's ridiculous. There is no requirements to shop anything. Also, any serious operators will tell you it takes 10-20hrs a week, not 5-10.

I tried it. Nice people, but from what I have seen, not many are actually able to make it work well. The products I tried were generally of good quality, but the prices were significantly higher than I thought was appropriate even for that level of quality. If you want to try it, good luck. You might be one of the few. However, it seemed to be similar to the old pyramid scheme that keeps popping up over and over again.

Yes, I am currently in Quixtar. No, it isn't a scam. Yes, there is alot of work to be successful. Many "uplines" try to preasure thier "downlines"into buying alot of merchandise for the points. Or another shady trick I've seen is preasureing them to recruit as many people as possible,which leads to fights with families, friends, etc. It can get really ugly if your upline is "greedy and shortsighted" However I have seen Excellence, patience, and genrosity in this business as well. The important rule of thumb is before joining, look at your sponsore, then look at his/her up-line. Then question,question,question!! I have been around MLM's for the past 12 years, and there is alot of misunderstanding,rumors, and just down-right bizaare stories about cults and stuff. YES we do try to stay possitive,(after 20 rejections, you have to . this is the reason for the 98% turn-over rate- and not just with Quixtar, but for all MLMSS, Home based business (to include Mary-Kay, Avon, arbonne,Mela Luca, Amway, etc.) Another really bad business practice is to tell prospects about this crazy money they'll make, get thier signature(and thier money) then leave 'em there to suffer, by themselves, not knowing "squat" about this oppertunity they have before them, (six weeks later) all there biz. kit is on E-Bay. Please E mail me for additional info. Everyone
