Nu Skin Publishes Average USA Distributor Earnings
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
According to Nu Skin:
In 2013, the Company paid approximately $143,266,000 in commissions to Distributors residing in the United States.
There are two fundamental ways in which a Distributor can earn compensation:
Through retail markups on sales of products purchased at wholesale prices; and
Through commissions (sometimes called bonuses) paid on one’s product sales and the sales of other Distributors in one’s downline sales network. As with any other sales opportunity, the compensation earned by Distributors varies significantly and is based upon the time Distributors devote to the business, etc. The cost to become a Distributor is very low.
People become Distributors for various reasons. Many people become Distributors simply to enjoy the Company’s products at wholesale prices. Some join the business to improve their skills or to experience the management of their own business. Others become Distributors, but for various reasons, never purchase products from the Company.

The average commission paid to U.S. Active Distributors each month was $176.00, or $2,112.05 on an annualized basis. In 2013, the average monthly

Herbalife’s digital media strategy fighting off Bill Ackman’s short campaign appears to include comparing the fund manager to Jordan Belfort-a convicted felon who ran a 90s-era boiler room, wrote a best-selling book and had a movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio made about him.
On July 17, verified Twitter account @HerbalifeTRUTH tweeted a superimposed an image of Ackman on a “Wolf of Wall Street” movie poster calling him the “Worst of Wall Street.”
The Twitter account linked to a press release slamming Pershing Square’s short bet against Herbalife.
“Ultimately, Pershing Square’s campaign is based on propaganda, and we look forward to demonstrating that its assumptions will crumble under serious and independent scrutiny.”
It’s unclear who exactly is behind the @HerbalifeTRUTH Twitter account. It links back to Iamherbalife.com. The two authors listed on the site areHerbalife and Andy Amsler, who works for digital media campaign company Podesta Group.
Ackman is loudly short Herbalife-a multi-level marketer that sells weight loss shakes and nutritional supplements. Ackman believes the company operates as a “pyramid scheme” that targets lower income individuals.
Herbalife has denied and continues to deny Ackman’s accusations.
On Tuesday, Ackman will be giving another one of his presentations on an investigation into how the company operates its nutrition clubs.
