Shane Morand
Shane Morand is an expert in mentoring, goal setting and positive motivation to achieve success. Since his teens he has studied Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich principles. Applying them successfully he built several network marketing organizations such as Organo Gold which uses independent distributors to sell its products worldwide – becoming one of the largest MLM companies worldwide reaching 2.2 Million families in 50 Countries!
MLM (multi-level marketing) is a business model in which distributors sell and earn commissions from the sales of others. Unfortunately, multi-level marketing (MLM) is often mislabeled as pyramid schemes; this distinction should not be drawn. A legitimate MLM differs from its pyramid counterpart in that a pyramid puts more focus on recruiting new distributors rather than selling product directly; additionally pyramids typically charge steep start-up costs such as starter kits and training fees to recruitees.
Recently, there have been allegations that Organo Gold is a pyramid scheme. Although untrue and to be disregarded, such allegations persist in spreading amongst many pages online that promote Organo Gold despite not actually wanting to buy any. Furthermore, these pages even promote it when people don’t necessarily intend on purchasing.
Organo Gold’s founders assert that their products are both healthy and provide an energy boost, as well as boasting medicinal properties attributed to Ganoderma mushroom used in their products. Furthermore, they insist that Organo Gold products do not constitute pyramid schemes but instead legal; nevertheless, the FTC is investigating them further and may take legal action against the business.
Shane Morand is a pioneer of network marketing and an esteemed seven-figure earner in network marketing, as co-founder and global master distributor of Organo Gold. A sought-after speaker on leadership, personal development and success topics such as leadership he also serves on the advisory board for Kinesis which offers cutting edge services that combine physical digital gold and silver into digital assets.
Bernardo Chua
Bernardo Chua is an established network marketing veteran and co-founder of Organo Gold. With an impressive list of achievements in network marketing and dedication to his company, Bernardo Chua has seen much success within this arena and earned various accolades and awards as a result of his hard work – such as being asked to speak at several events where his expertise was recognized widely by attendees.
Organo Gold was founded in 2008 as a gourmet coffee company using Ganoderma as part of its production process. They offer many health products as well, such as teas and supplements designed to increase energy levels. Their family-run business now sells products worldwide in over 50 countries!
Ganoderma Lucidum Coffee is their signature product, but they also offer other healthy supplements to improve health, increase energy levels and heighten mental alertness. Their products can come in the form of shakes, capsules or coffee. Since their initial launch the company has experienced significant growth – their product lineup keeps expanding every month!
Although the company claims to be a multi-level marketing business, critics have charged that it’s more akin to a pyramid scheme due to its focus on recruiting salespeople rather than actually selling its product. Furthermore, high start-up costs for new distributors must also be covered before being required to attend high-pressure motivational events.
However, this is not true of all Organo Gold distributors. Experienced network marketing industry veterans like Jay Noland and David Buggs possess extensive knowledge about Organo Gold products’ science as well as commitment to first-class quality service that ensures distributors receive timely commission payments – such individuals have even joined Organo Gold’s leadership team and leadership team respectively! Consequently, Organo Gold continues to thrive despite recent controversy.
David Buggs
He was an outstanding family man who greatly valued his relationships. A dedicated Dallas Cowboys fan who appreciated classic rock, he is survived by his wife Brigitte, daughter Lynda, sons David and Michael as well as several grandchildren in Capitol Heights Maryland.
Jake Buggs first earned recognition with his performance on the BBC Radio 1 stage at Glastonbury festival this year, before going on to release his fourth studio album Hearts That Strain in September and embarking on an acoustic tour in November. Jake Buggs’ music combines traditional folk, rock and pop influences for an infectious listen – his debut release Jake Buggs even reached number one in UK charts back in 2012. Jake Buggs has since played both T in the Park (BBC Introducing Stage) and Glastonbury festivals (Main Pyramid Stage).
Recently, some members of the public have accused him of participating in a pyramid scheme; however, these allegations lack sufficient proof and should be taken with a pinch of salt. It is important to differentiate between legitimate MLM companies and dubious pyramid schemes.
David Buggs is not only a gifted musician; he’s also an outstanding student with a 3.7 GPA and membership in the National Spanish Honor Society. Additionally, he was recognized with Principal’s Award recipient status and serves as leader on his Triumph White AAU team team. Both parents, Dewrie Ray Buggs and Gina Matias, are extremely proud of him and all his accomplishments.
Organo Gold Company has recently come under scrutiny for several reasons, such as accusations that they operate a pyramid scheme and employ illegal sales tactics. Furthermore, various law enforcement agencies are conducting investigations against this business for fraud and money laundering activities. Despite these accusations against them, Organo Gold denies being a pyramid scheme insisting it’s legitimate business but should be avoided at all costs; those scammed should seek legal advice immediately –
Countdown4Freedom
Countdown4Freedom is a campaign against Organo Gold schemes which have preyed upon Guyanese and Caribbean nationals. Through weekly colloquiums to educate the public on its dangers, as well as encouraging Guyanese government officials to ban Organo Gold from operating within their borders, this movement has gained widespread support of local residents of Guyana.
While this company claims not to be a pyramid scheme, this claim is dubious. Pyramid schemes place more importance on recruiting salespeople than selling products, often charging steep start-up costs and hosting high-pressure motivational events. All these characteristics apply to this company, justifying its ban as a clear violation of consumer protection laws.
