What I found even more interesting yet was the following quote from Quixtar/Amway: "*The following are approximate percentages of Direct Fulfillment IBOs of record in North America who achieved the illustrated levels of success in the calendar year ending August 31, 2005: Diamond .0120%; Emerald .0320%; Q-12 Platinum .1683%." Less than 1.000% of active IBOs achieve Q-12 Platinum in Quixtar?!? Let's math this out... According to Quixtar's site as you pointed out above, there were greater than 370,000 IBOs who received a bonus. This means there were only the following numbers: Diamonds Averaging 146,995 -- .012% of 370k = 44.4 Emeralds Avg 72,241 -- .032% of 370k = 118.4 Platinum Avg 47,472 -- .1683% of 370k = 622.71 Now for the shocking (to some) facts from the IDS showing just how much more powerful MVs plan is. MV Emerald Avg 151,630 -- 41 or <1% (3 less MV Ems than Qx Dmds in 3 years versus 8 and making 4k more avg) MV Ruby Avg 101,799 -- 79 or <1% (39 less MV Rby than Qx Em in 3yr vs 8 and making 29.5k more avg) MV Gold Avg 52,760 -- 225 or 1% This is what I find the MOST AMAZING! Only 0.1683% of all active Quixtar IBOs are at the Q-12 Platinum, yet in MV a FULL 1% of active Distributors are at Gold!!! (comparable to Q12 Plat Income) Mona-Vie is doing so much better at helping the new guys make an income! (MV Gold makes 5.2k more than Qx Plat) I love these numbers! P.S. There are (if my calculations are correct, this isn't a statement from Mona-Vie and simply calculations based on their Income Disclosure Statement) Again, these are my calculations please refer to the IDS. Mona-Vie has 106 Distributors at the Diamond level or above, or 0.2988% of Active Distributors. (Almost twice the percentage of just platinum in Quix) When averaged together it seems these distributors at Diamond or above average $637,578 per year. (Which we know from the IDS that the basic Diamonds and Blue Diamonds are making less than, and the Black and above are making more.) None-the-less, to have Distributors almost twice the percentage of 47k/yr Quix IBOs making 13.5 times the money is amazing!
