    This program looks suspicious to me.  If its indeed a scam, then please flag this one!!! 

    They basically build two legs, and you earn $1,500 & $1,000 commissions that are payed out of the membership fees for standard and premium packages ($800 & $2200).  Looks like another MLM scheme to me, where the early investors do well, but everybody else goes broke.  You cannot recruit an infinite number of people, all you can do is change the model to give the illusion of being different, when in reality nothing has really changed.  It sounds like very little will be left to go around, most will probably lose everything.

    There’s some more info and discussion on this topic here here.

    Doubters of the program are responded to by members with the typical “Just trust me...it will make you money”....how often have people heard that before? That sounds like the advice of a scammer.

    In be half of the National Companies I would like to speek solely for my self. I was approched a little over a year ago. Being a single mother of 3 children, one whom which is in college, two in high school.
    When I took a long look at the company I wasn’t looking for a way to make an additional income as much as I was looking for a way to be able to save money. I was trying to survive, and trying to find a way to cut the cost of a lot of things such as car insurance, health insurance. It wasn’t what I read on the internet, it wasn’t what I had seen on the DVD’s, it wasn’t what I had read from magazines. It was simply through the edification of other members. Not just 2,4 or 6. It was several people just like my self. I did a lot of research. I checked the credentials with the DSA ( Direct Selling Asso) and was amazed what I had found. The company sits at the top of the DSA’S list. Their a member of the BBB of Florida, that’s where their based out of. Chamber of Comm. They follow every code of ethic. Our goverenment would NOT allow this company to exist and survive 10 years, yes TEN YEARS if it were based on a pyramid scam. I hear this a lot, and it saddens me that the socity that we live in makes us put up our guard on nearly everything we do in our lives. Unfortunatually, I did the same thing. Fortunally, I took it a step further. I checked out the company. I started saving money right from the beginning on things I was using everyday. See, this company is all about Benefits, cutting the middle man in SEVERAL different avenues. Little did I know that within 7 months I would lose EVERYTHING I owned to a house fire. You can’t even begin to imagine the devistation in my life. I have saved so much money rebuilding my life through the concept of this company. Everything it took to rebuild our lives I have saved through this company.
    You want to talk about the income. I decided I was going to work this company on an income level. What was happening to me was to great not to share with my family and friends. I was going to reach out and touch every person I knew, because the benefits of this company were to important to me not to share.  And in doing so, it’s starting to bring in a nice income. This company is just like any other company. It’s not a get rich quick company, it’s a get rich steady company, IF you wish to apply your self.  You get paid what your worth. Look at Donald Trumph, do you think he had success over night, I don’t him personally but I’m guessing not. Look at Bill Gates and Microsoft, he never dreamed his impire would soar him to the top of being one of the richest men in the wourld, read his book! How about Warren Buffett, he wasn’t born with a silver spoon ih his mouth, he as well built his impire? He’s gotten rich by making very smart business choices. Going in and buying companies that are on their way up or already at the top. These are VERY SMART business men.
    I am so proud to say that I am part of a company that is ran on unbelievable morals and great standards. The president and CEO of this company has before them an incredable impire. It wasn’t to long ago that this company was trying to be bought out more then once by a brilliant man he seen the value of National Companies. The reply is always the same...NOT FOR SALE!
    I encourge you Mr. Daniels to go take a look at the company, it cost you nothing to look. We have business overviews all over the country. Take a look and see what our wonderful company has to offer you!
    This had been solely my own opinion, speaking from my own heart.
    It’s nice to lose sleep over something because your excited for tomorrow, providing I’m givin another day.
    Have a wonderful day Mr. Daniels

    I have just recently joined this membership Team National, ... My main concern is that after you already pay for the membership you still have to pay $80 just to use the website that you can supposly save sooo much money on. I already paid the $800 and I can only do as much as a non-member,...... that is until i pay more money,...annually.
    If this isnt the case will someone tell me the facts....its sad I havent even went on the website yet. That and its hard to try to get people to join, when u cant even show them the site.

    i have to agree with sherry. i am a member of this awesome company. this is not a multi level marketing scam. in a typical pyramid, the person at the top gets all the money. with this company you get paid what you’re worth. for example if i hosted jim and he went out and hosted 10 people and he gets his bonuses, i don’t make his hosting bonus money. he does! why should i? i didn’t work as hard as he did, so why should i make as much. if all 10 people got their points for the week, he’d make $10,000 that week just in hosting bonuses, not me. i would make $1000 for his effort. THIS IS ONLY AN EXAMPLE. like i said you get paid what you’re worth. i don’t want to confuse anyone because you really have to see the program to fully understand it. but i have to say this is the best financial decision i have ever made! i’ve saved so much money on the things i’m already buying. i was very skeptical because of the reputation some companies out there have made for others. i wouldn’t believe most of the things you read on the net about this company. i know it might seem to good to be true, but this company is best out there in my opinion! it’s not a get rich quick. nor is it a get rich with no effort. it’s a get rich slow and steady. you don’t make anything by putting nothing into it. it’s the best something for something out there. you could just want to save money. you could just want to save and make a little extra money or you could make a fortune. whatever efforts you put in will determine the outcome. the extra money you put into for a web site is not only for you to get a commission back on your purchases but also for you to get a commission on what other people buy on your site. and also you need it if you want to market the business. how can you show someone this and tell them to do something you didn’t do? if you do that i can guarantee you won’t make much with this company. i wouldn’t sell something to someone if i didn’t believe in it.  our company pays us 6 different ways! the commissions are nothing compared to the progression bonuses and the hosting bonuses! we have 4 different ways to save money. the $800 daniels said he paid DOES give him benefits. he definitely can do much more than non members because he paid for his benefits package. if you don’t understand that daniels you need to get with the person who showed this to you because your wrong on that. if you have any questions, i would be glad to answer them for you. there are over 4500 companies within this 1 company. i have saved on soooo many things. i don’t think you could mention 1 thing to me and me turn around and tell you i couldn’t save on it with this company! i have no bad things to say about it. this company is very caring. they want to help people succeed. other companies have made people have a negative opinion, but this 1 won’t screw you over. i have been very blessed to have been given this wonderful opportunity. i will never look back! i’ve read many of the things people have written about this company and it’s sad to say but there’s no cure for stupid! these people just don’t get it. and i don’t get why people write about something they have no idea about. like for example: 1 woman wrote that her husband or brother or someone close to her saw the presentation and she wrote a whole bunch of WRONG info. that’s what happens when you don’t see it for yourself and someone else tries to tell you about it. it’s like when i was in grade school...the teacher would tell the 1st person in the row a short story. they then had to pass it along to the next kid. by the time it got to the last person the story was so messed up it wasn’t funny! so like i said i wouldn’t believe much of what you hear. google mother teresa or God. there’s gonna be negative things written about them too. a lot of the times there’s negative things written about a company because the person writing it wanted to get rich quick, got fed up, didn’t work enough at it and gave up too soon. anyway, i’ll stop rambling now. this company is good! it had changed many people’s lives. you gotta have ambition, be willing to work and be teachable. if you have those 3 ingredients, YOU COULD BE VERY SUCCESSFUL WITH THIS COMPANY!!! if i have helped anyone reading this please drop me a line. and if you do have any other concerns, send me an e-mail. thanks and God bless!!!

    Back in Feburary of this year, a very good friend of ours, my financial advisor ask us to take a look at Team National not the stock markets and we did. I wasn’t looking for anymore MLM plans, cause my husband and I got burned out on them with nothing to show for. My husband insisted we give it a try and today I thank God for my husband persistence. We purchase the premium package cause it only made sence, cause it cover at least 2 generations. Right of the bat we save a tons of money on purchase’s enough to buy two premium package’s. It didn’t stop there, I started to get checks in the mail for referring some friends, then I really got the picture. There’s no recession in our household, matter of fact I recommend Team National to anyone who leaves their options open and want to get paid what they’re worth. I find Google has a lot of bad things to say about Team National, but the people posting there are trying to sell their programs. Sometimes you wonder about Google and who they stand for. Thank you Team National for giving me and my family a life line and hope for a bright future.

    My husband and I joined Team National in April of this year. I have experience in the Direct Selling industry for the past 20 years off and on. I must say that I have never made any money with the product based businesses simply because I just couldn’t with good conscience ask my friends and family to buy over-priced products simply so that I could make a commission. We have found that with the National Companies we are not doing that. We are saving money on many of the things we are already buying. We also understand that with our website that we paid $80 for, you do not save money, but make a small commission. And that is just the icing on the cake. In just 6 short months with this company, working about 10 to 20 hours each week we have been able to generate a very NICE secondary income for ourselves AND we have been able to help our friends do the same. This company does deliver what it says. You do have to work, so if you are looking for a Get Rich plan, this isn’t it.  Through our work and good attitude we even won a Cruise + $1,000 spending money. Not bad for just 6 months in the business!
