Abunza Review - Scam Or Legit Home Business?

By Brian McCoy

Are you looking into the Abunza business opportunity and are trying to figure out what it's all about? This article will give you an honest review of the company and the opportunity.

1) Company

Abunza was created to be multi-cultural. The program is marketed to the English speaking community but also takes advantage of the nearly untapped 100 million Spanish speaking community on the internet. Abunza, which means "abundance" in Spanish, was co-founded by Sebastian Saldarriaga and Michael Spire.

With your Abunza distributorship, you have access to two digital libraries in both English and Spanish, valued at over $75,000. You can either retail the library individually at 100% commission through your Abunza bi-lingual shopping cart, or you are able to market the library wholesale through the 2 tier compensation plan that pays out 100%.

2) Member Support

One benefit of being an Abunza member, is that you have trained professionals from the Abunza Dream Team that will call back your prospects for you, in either Spanish or English. The Dream Team makes the calls and sales for you so that you never have to talk to the prospective customer yourself.

This means that regardless of your prospects speaking a word of English, the orders will be facilitated for you. You are only contacted to notify you when money is being sent to your account.

3) The Products

Included in the digital libraries are hundreds of products available in both English and Spanish. The products are software, e-books, videos, and audios from a wide range of topics. The main purpose of the products are to assist you in developing a successful online business. You can find information on a variety of subjects from article marketing, to video production, SEO tips, and blog development. These products will help you to generate increased traffic to your site.

4) Pay Plan

Abunza offers two ways to make money online:

1. Retail - As an Abunza member, you have full resale rights to all of the products. Members are paid 100% commissions for every product sold through their online stores. When someone goes to your site and selects products to buy, they can then pay you directly with a credit card or Paypal account.

2. Wholesale Marketing - This is where you have the opportunity to earn the largest amount of money. There are 3 different options that you have to choose from when joining: Abunza Elite - $2497 is the cost to join, $1997 is paid as a 1st tier commission, a $500 2nd tier override commission is earned for each sale that one of your personally sponsored people makes. Abunza Pro - costs $1197 to join, pays $947 1st tier commission, and a $250 override. Abunza Lite - $597 price tag, $472 commission payout, with a $125 override.

The problem with a 2-up program design is that your members break away from you after their first 2 sales. However, with a 2 tier program, you can train your team knowing that every time they make a sale you will earn an override. This develops a team synergy that does not exist in a 2-up program as you can work together rather than becoming direct competition to one another.

In closing, Abunza is not a scam. It is a legitimate home based business that gives its members the opportunity to earn a great living online, from the comfort of their own home. - 15478
