FTC Attacks MLM Autoship Programs, Vemma Served With Complaint
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
Vemma was served with a complaint by the FTC on 25 August in the USA, for their autoship program. Vemma affiliates Back Office is temporarily unavailable.
Autoships are huge. Most companies with solid products will see anywhere from 40% to 75% of all revenues come from the monthly reorder of their products.
The FTC – Federal Trade Commission – is a powerfull USA government organization and its mission is “Protecting USA customers”.
This is not a Vemma issue, this is an attack on the Industry. Vemma has the bad luck to be the guinea pig, and it will cost the company and CEO BK Boreyko, huge amounts of time and money to defend them against this FTC investigation.
In VEMMA the auto ship is optional, so apparently this investigation is based on an “old” complaint and

David And Debbie Reeder – Vemma Hit Royal Ambassador
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
Six years ago, David and Debbie Reeder decided to leave Vemma to seek out another opportunity. “We were distracted,” admits Debbie, reflecting on the four-year season. “You don’t know what you have until it’s gone.” Exactly 26 months ago, the pair returned, but this time, they were different people with a different level of commitment.
“We made a decision to be committed. It wasn’t ‘we’ll try this and see what it’s like in six months,’” explains David. “If you want to be successful in this business, you have to have resolve. You’ll find reasons to leave and shiny things that come along will take your focus off of what you want to accomplish.”
That self-described “tenacious” nature has paid off this time around as the couple has diligently focused, built deep and continued to

This is what he had to say:
“My story goes back over 8 years ago in the early stages of Ambit Energy where I had been a Corporate Controller for a huge plastics conglomerate for over 25 years. About 15 years ago something happened that would change my life and my thinking forever. I had suffered a massive heart attack requiring quadruple bypass and that took me almost 3 1/2 years to become fully functional again.
During my recuperation, I had lost my job and the burden of financial responsibility fell upon my wife. Once my health improved, I realized that I had to do something very different moving forward. I took my business acumen and
