Melaleuca Compared To Shaklee

Melaleuca vs Shaklee: The Battle of The Brands | ExplosiveMLM.com

Like Melaleuca, Shaklee’s products are based on natural ingredients. Shaklee has two important principles that must be adhered to when selecting products:

1. Ingredients must be as natural as possible.

2. Ingredients must reflect the most recent scientific and technological advances.

Like Melaleuca, Shaklee support their natural and naturally derived ingredients with scientifically formulated ingredients if a natural alternative is not possible. Their scientifically formulated ingredients are thoroughly tested to ensure bioavailability, purity and potency.

In terms of which company is the most “natural”, it would appear that they are evenly matched. They both pride themselves on the high quality and standard of their ingredients. The advantage Shaklee has over Melaleuca is that a list of their products’ ingredients seems to be easier to find. Shaklee clearly differentiate between natural, naturally derived and scientifically formulated ingredients, and also show which category every single ingredient used belongs to. Melaleuca seem to be less upfront about their ingredient lists, and don’t make it clear what the difference between natural and naturally derived is which can leave the consumer slightly confused.

Both companies belong in the network marketing industry, and so they have pretty similar structures. Melaleuca’s distributors must remain as customers and commit to spending a certain amount every month on Melaleuca products in order to be eligible for commission. Shaklee’s model works in much the same way:

“Just three clear steps to earning the rewards of a great living: 3. Mentor others to do what you’re doing. Paying it forward pays you back.”

A key difference between the two companies is that as a Melaleuca Executive you are not involved in selling products to the end-consumer; you are merely recommending them to the company. As a Shaklee distributor, you are selling Shaklee products direct to the customer. Just as though you were a grocery store, you buy the products at wholesale prices and sell them to customers at a retail price, usually a 15% mark up.

Both companies’ distributors are required to purchase a certain amount of products every month. Melaleuca is purchased for personal use, whilst Shaklee is for resell. The Shaklee model seems to be risky. There is no guarantee that you will sell the products purchased, which could leave you with a large amount of unsold stock in your garage, and no profit.
