This article is written by Team Business For Home and is fact checked by Ted Nuyten – CEO of Business For Home. We are looking in this review through the eyes of professional network marketers possibly interested in the Isagenix opportunity.

“For this publication and review we talked with Top Earners, former distributors, and former employees however it seems corporate executives are not willing to share any information, keeping unfortunately Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt (The FUD factor) alive.

Isagenix, has made headlines due to a series of notable corporate decisions. First is their unexpected choice not to renew Jay Bennett’s contract, a decision that sparked a flurry of industry buzz.

Isagenix Elect Not To Renew An Associate Contract?

Jay Bennett is / was a top earner and the “Golden Boy” in Isagenix and earned a total of more than $22 million dollars from Isagenix. He joined the company back in 2002.
This year Isagenix completed a recapitalisation transaction and a transition to new ownership, as the company was closed to bankruptcy.

From an “independent” distributor point of view this is an interesting case. Can I company just throw you out?
Recently the termination policy for all Isagenix distributors was changed to:
“Isagenix may, at its reasonable discretion, elect not to renew your Associate Contract. Isagenix will notify you of its intent not to renew on or before the anniversary of your enrollment.”
Bennett and his family refused to agree with above policy and stated:
“Once an Associate works hard to achieve a high rank with the corresponding residual income, Isagenix will confiscate that income for its own pecuniary benefit.
Worse, since Isagenix cuts off the Associates income, the Associate is left without any funds to assert his or her rights, and this is what Isagenix
