Let's see here:

www.jaguarenterprises.co m
or
www.caliberfitness.com

Which site would you buy from??  Which site appears most deceiving.

{LOL} Same 'ol Vince, ...unable to see the forest for the trees huh?  ::)

Vince, you're trying to compare apples & oranges while failing to take into account that www.jaguarenterprises.co m is not about selling supplements.

However, since you did ask... in answer to your question, I suppose a trained eyed and a little investigation could perceive your site to be deceiving. I'm refering specifically to statements and claims made about one of your products that does NOT appear on the manufacturers site regarding that same product. A little investigation would further show, the facts do NOT support the statement you have made about it. I will assume you know the product of which I speak, ...unless of course your site contains numerous doctored statements and false claims? ??? If that were the case, then I would understand any initial confusion about which product I might be refering to. I only mention it because afterall... you did ask.

But my original comments which you responded to were not a "mine vs. his" comment. It simply had to do with the advice you disseminated. You call this thread "Cheap man's guide to starting Home business", but you tell people their business should end in "health, fitness, nutrition, or personal training" ??? What if their home business is taxidermy? what if it's book keeping or accounting?. What if their business is a diversified one operating in a number of realms? I just thought some of the advice was a little too narrow for the general approach dictated by the thread title, and I pointed that out. It you find fault with that, then address it, but to go off on some "who would you rather buy from" rampage in an attempt to try to make yourself look good is a little too transparent and childish... even for you. The sooner you stop making comparisons and childish attacks in an attempt to compete with others, ...and understand the biggest competition should be with yourself, ..the better off you will be. You can take my word for it, ...or you can find out the hard way. It's up to you.

Llet me state that I do apologize for the stuff me and rest of the folks did on the the nutritional board.  I'm not going to make personal attacks against you anymore.




Now that that's out of the way, first off this is a bodybuilding and fitness dicussion board so it should have been apparant to the reader the the home business being discussed would be related to health and fitness.  If I was talking about starting a business in taxidermy, then I wouldn't post about it around here.


As far as competing with you, there is no contest between me and you for a number of reasons.


1.  My website ranks higher than yours, even 240 or bust.  That means more people come to me for their fitness needs than you.  You have no rank on Alexa while I do.  Your google rank is 0 out of 10 while mine is 2 out of 10.  You haven't had many visitirs lately 

2.  Your own website isn't your real one.  With all the pages of literature, audio and video presentations, when you peel away the exterior, this is what you get.  This is your real website address.  There is no actual Jaguar Enterprises.  You are Judy Embden, independent sales rep for Synergy.

http://www.jaguar.mysynergy.net/synergycorp/myhome.aspx

3.  The prices for my supplements are much lower than yours, shipping is lower, delivery is faster.  Simply put, very few people will justify spending 99 dollars on L-arginine.  In case you aren't aware, the most common thing people look for in a product is the price to see whether they are getting a fair deal or not.  Remember I put your product on Ebay which all the literature and material and it didn't even make it to 30 dollars.  The only reason that it even got any bids had more to do with me being an Ebay Powerseller. 

4.  Your argument about overstock is taken however I don't have a problem with that.  My product sell pretty quickly.  Some items don't sell as fast as others, but they do sell eventually.  Everyone doesn't need everything at the same time.  Synergy makes the majority of their money off recruiting "salesman" than actual sale of product.  That's how MLM companies work.


5.  I'm a certified personal trainer and athletic sports nutritionist.  As of yet, I have not seen any creditentials of yours but I can be mistaken.



I can go on about this but its not nessesary.  My point in comparing website is simply who is truly out there selling health & fitness products  and who isn't.  Because if you take one look at your website....well we wouldn't know.

If you were truly sorry, you would NOT continue to do it.

I understand that, but not everyone here is a professional bodybuilder or even has desires or aspirations to turn pro or to be a physical trainer. Some people read these boards for fitness advice for themselves. That doesn't preclude them from being entrepreneurial. Look at 240, look at Garraeth. They both read the boards and train. They also run home businesses that have nothing to do with health, fitness, or personal training. That was my point.

 :o There is no Jaguar Enterprises? Uh.. ok... if you say so.  ::)
What you've posted is a corporate replicated website that facilitates online retail ordering of Synergy branded products. What of it?

Nah, Vince... you're not making yet another useless comparison here..  ::)
Perhaps the most common thing your customers look for in a product is a price, ...however, my customers are looking for unique, quality goods and/or services from a company they know they can trust... in addition to other things. We serve different markets. There is no comparison between apples and oranges. Why you insist on doing so is beyond me. Stop being so insecure. I'm really getting embarrassed for you.

Quote
Remember I put your product on Ebay which all the literature and material and it didn't even make it to 30 dollars.  The only reason that it even got any bids had more to do with me being an Ebay Powerseller. 

Ya, I remember how embarassed I was for you too. You couldn't even get $30 for something that thousands of people gladly pay $100 for for. You pwned yourself with that one.

Quote
4.  Your argument about overstock is taken however I don't have a problem with that.  My product sell pretty quickly.  Some items don't sell as fast as others, but they do sell eventually.  Everyone doesn't need everything at the same time.

And for a small business starting out that perhaps maybe short on capital, tying up what little capital they do have in something that's not selling is not the most efficient use of their resources is it?  I wasn't trying to say that YOU Vince Goodrum of Caliber Fitness sells outdated and expired stock to people. The thread was a general one about starting a business. A business owner short on cash without the ability to run an effective ad campaign isn't going to benefit from $5 grand worth of stock that's not selling. That $5 G's could have been put to better use so that the business see's a better return as well as rate of return on the funds s/he has invested. in order for any business to be successful, it must make the most efficient use of all it's resources, whether that be labour, inventory, or cash. That was my point.

Quote
Synergy makes the majority of their money off recruiting "salesman" than actual sale of product.  That's how MLM companies work.

Wrong Again. That's how pyramids work. And that's why pyramids are illegal.

In Synergy, nobody makes any money unless product is sold.
Please stop trying to describe something you clearly know nothing about. Please stick to describing & focussing attention on your own business.

5.  I'm a certified personal trainer and athletic sports nutritionist.  As of yet, I have not seen any creditentials of yours but I can be mistaken.

Can be? ??? You quite often are!

Vince, it's quite obvious there is a lot you don't know. I'd like to suggest that you focus your efforts on running and developing your own business. How someone with a "supposedly successful" business can find so much time to think about someone else and their business  makes me wonder how "successful" your business is. And if by any wild stretch of the imaginative, and some fortuitous blessing from above it happens to be successful, ...how long it can remain so? Robert Kiyosaki has a great phrase he uses. He says "If you want to be successful in business, ...you need to MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!" I invite you to do the same.  :)

1..Continue to do what??  Where have I made a personal attack attack against you???

2.  Again this is a bodybuilding and fitness dicussion board.  There are much more people here interested in being a personal trainer or own a supplement business than scrub garbage cans or drive an ice cream truck

3.  The site ranks don't lie, you can check them for yourself throught Alexa and Google.  And it does tell a fine story as to who's buying from who

4.  Corporate replicated site..... ::)  If that's the case than why does the vast majority of Synergy associates use it as their main site???  Come on Judi, its your actual sales site and the other pages are a cover for it.

5.  L-arginine is a cheap and abundant source...period.  Your product is no better than the NO-Explode, Xpand, Superpump or any other product on the market. Except its much more expensive and is less effective

6.  I don't encourage people to buy expired supplements nor do I stock them.  Your slander however will be ignored.  Most big companies like BB.com order too much of one product and that's what I'm referring to as to getting supplies. 




FINALLY, you are the one who commented on MY BUSINESS POST I MADE.  I DON'T NEED TO MIND MY BUSINESS ON MY THREAD!!!

Don't know why, I even gave her a call on Skype and referred her over a new associate who was asking me about Synergy. 


Judi simply doesn't understand the difference between MLM and the stardard business rule which I've tried to explain to her. 

First off, she's trying to tell me how to run a business but she's only been in business (if you can exactly) call it business since 2004!!!!  Come on now.  This was her first website. She is using POKEMON CHARACTER TO SELL HER BUSINESS!!!  Not only is it completely cheesy but its trademark infringement and she could have gotten in some serious hot water.  Here is her business in 2004

http://web.archive.org/web/20040318064551/http://jaguarenterprises.com/



Now here's the kicker, she then in 2005 gets off the Synergy bandwagon and starts selling Monavie.  If Synergy was so great and making so much money for her then why completely do a 360 and go into another business???
This was her site in 2005 
http://web.archive.org/web/20050128071721/http://jaguarenterprises.com/



Crazy isn't it DF.  That's why I like Alexa, it gives the real truth about a business

Now this is 2002 for me, year in business long before Judi was around
http://web.archive.org/web/20020604122802/http://caliberfitness.net/



Now this is me in 2004 at the same time, after 3 years of building the business is when I started to make money from the business.  I'm well ahead of her and this was the time when I was bringing in other lines of product and expanding the business 
http://web.archive.org/web/20040921105614/http://caliberfitness.com/



Now its 2006, my websites no longer look crappy because I now have the funds from the business to invest in.  I now carry over 80 different products.  I'm currently sold out of Total Trainers until September and I'm selling Synthetek like its going out of style.  Point I'm trying to make is that nothing comes easy in business and those who try to take the easy way out never get anywhere.  I built my business fighting tooth and nail all the way and did it the honest and the right way. 

Judi, I respect your response but I think its time to reevaluate your business.  At the very least put a fresh coat of paint on your website and redo it.  240 or bust could problably give you a good deal.

1..Continue to do what??  Where have I made a personal attack attack against you???

Anyone with eyes can just look through this thread to find it.  ::)
Even Stevie Wonder could find it.

Quote
2.  Again this is a bodybuilding and fitness dicussion board.  There are much more people here interested in being a personal trainer or own a supplement business than scrub garbage cans or drive an ice cream truck

I think you'd find people more interested in owning a supplement business over scrubbing garbage cans on any site.

Quote
3.  The site ranks don't lie, you can check them for yourself throught Alexa and Google.  And it does tell a fine story as to who's buying from who

Alexa and Google Ranks don't lie, ...it's the one doing the interpretation that does. In this case it's YOU!

What I haven't quite decided yet is if this is just you purposely trying to deceive readers who may not know any better, or if you're just using your usual skewed logic again?

For those who are unaware of how things work in the network mtkg arena, most retail customers do not purchase from a distributor's website. The distributor or customer orders the product directly from within their own back-office console, or through the company directly. The distributor is credited for the sale because that customer's account is linked to the distributor. If a retail customer calls in an order directly to the company, or if a distributor or wholesale consumer makes an order directly from their back-office console, there is no visit to the distributor's website, and no "hit" to show up on a Google or an Alexa ranking.  Why would a customer go to a website designed primarily to deliver information? ...especially when they have an automatic shipment of the product or service set up that comes to them every month on whatever day they choose, ...or their own account through which they can order what they want whenever they choose? My corporate replicated site is there to capture the odd retail sale from strangers who might come surfing through and want to order. As I've stated many times before, I prefer to allow customers to acquire their products or services at my cost, and make my income on the overall wholesale volume of all the orders. The only time I charge retail is if someone purchases from the retail cart, or if I have to physically handle the order, ...or if they've been a pain in the tush.

In all the years and all the different companies in network mtkg companies Vince has been in, ...he should know this, ...yet he appears to want you to believe that someone is going to buy something at retail when the distributor makes it available to them at wholesale. This makes Vince's comments disengenous, ...or it makes Vince a clued out fool. I'm inclined to believe it's a bit of both.

Quote
4.  Corporate replicated site..... ::)  If that's the case than why does the vast majority of Synergy associates use it as their main site???

Dah! That's what a replicated site is. Network Mtkg is a business of duplication, ...but I doubt you understand that.

Quote
Come on Judi, its your actual sales site and the other pages are a cover for it.

I've told you what that site is Vince, it's the corporate replicated site made available from the company that facilitates online ordering of Synergy products by retail customers. plain and simple. There is no "cover" for anything. My website existed long before the replicated website came into being.

Quote
5.  L-arginine is a cheap and abundant source...period.

I've never said arginine wasn't cheap. It is cheap. However cheap arginine without a rider can open you up to a world of hurt. If someone doesn't care about killing their sperm, or breaking out in cold sores, or any of the other harmfull and well documented side-effects of consuming disregulated arginine without a rider... they're free to do so. Oh no... I forgot, they're not, at least not in Canada. All arginine's started coming off the shelf as of May 16th, 2006. Health Regulatory agencies around the world are beginning to understand the dangers of disregulated arginine metabolism for the consumer. When it's possible to lower the costs of the 3 week 32-step process of making the rider (a process which up til now the biggest pharmaceutical companies have been unable to reverse engineer), then perhaps the price will go down. Until then, it is what it is. Personally, I don't understand why you're all up in arms about the price of products I promote, ...especially when they are higher than yours. If anything, I would think you'd be happy about that. I can only suppose the fact that more & more people are finding out about the dangers of using disregulated arginine and are asking for Synergy's ProArgi-9 brand by name, is beginning to get to you.

Quote
Your product is no better than the NO-Explode, Xpand, Superpump or any other product on the market. Except its much more expensive and is less effective

750,000 pages of documentation and approved claims by the FDA & FTC say otherwise. not to mention thousands of very satisfied users around the world.

Quote
6.  I don't encourage people to buy expired supplements nor do I stock them.  Your slander however will be ignored.  Most big companies like BB.com order too much of one product and that's what I'm referring to as to getting supplies.

I never said you did. In addition to being delusional, are you also illiterate as well?

Quote
7.  FINALLY, you are the one who commented on MY BUSINESS POST I MADE.  I DON'T NEED TO MIND MY BUSINESS ON MY THREAD!!!  If you can't take the heat, then hop to another thread

Then why don't you act like the credible professional you're trying to appear like, and address issues raised in the thread, rather than go off on some personal attack against me, trying to deceive others in an attempt to make yourself look good. You compare apples to oranges and only deceive and mislead fools, ...or those without the knowledge or background to know you are being deceptive..

http://web.archive.org/web/20040318064551/http://jaguarenterprises.com/

First of all, that was NOT my first website. it was however a page I did throw up on a different url back in 1999. I directed the .com url towards it in 2004 after I was able to snag the domain name away from the Indian engineering firm that neglected to renew their domain name. I put it there because some people will automatically type .com into a browser regardless of whatever end domain extension you give them, or whatever end domain is written infront of them. Rather than hearing repeated "I can't find the site", or "I got an error 404 message", or even "I got a GoDaddy parked domain page", they got a link that led them to where I had originally wanted them to go. It was a simple page for simple people.

Now here's the kicker, she then in 2005 gets off the Synergy bandwagon and starts selling Monavie.  If Synergy was so great and making so much money for her then why completely do a 360 and go into another business???
This was her site in 2005 
http://web.archive.org/web/20050128071721/http://jaguarenterprises.com/

You have no conscience do you? You're willing to lie to anyone about anything aren't you?
You know darn well the story about that, and you know I never got off any Synergy bandwagon. I still use and promote Synergy's products. At the time, I wanted Acai, and I wanted to be able to supply Acai to others who wanted it as well. Synergy delayed release of her Acai product in order to make sure what they were putting out met their stringent standards for quality... unlike others who may have slapped theirs together in a desperate bid to re-invent themselves and save a company with flagging sales. You know darn good and well that once I experienced the Monavie Acai product I decided it wasn't up to my standard. And despite having a very advantageous position at the top of the geneology (prior to the official launch), I chose not to bother building a business with it. Even though I would have had most of the distributor force in my downline organization, I can't promote a product I wouldn't use or don't believe in. I'm just not built that way. I doubt that's something you could relate to. I have the feeling you would sell arsenic to people if you could make a buck on it, ...heck, I wouldn't be surprised it you would do it for a quarter.  In the meantime, I also tried Acai products from a number of other companies as well, but none of them were up to my standards. I ended up waiting a year before Synergy launched her Mistica Acai blend, and quite frankly, ...it was worth the wait!

Crazy isn't it DF.  That's why I like Alexa, it gives the real truth about a business

Alexa is incapable of telling anyone the truth about a business. It registers hits to a site, not sales within a business. Alexa is useful for determining whether or not a site will produce the eyeballs that a paying advertiser is looking for. If you're looking to purchase ad space on a website, then perhaps Alexa is a useful tool, ...but if you think it can tell you about sales volume, you're very mistaken. Alexa does not track business volume that occurs throughout the world -- volumes that accrue and/or are ordered through other websites, back-office accounts, or through the telephone. It certainly cannot even begin to register auto-ship sales that are preset by the customer to automatically trigger on a given day every month. In network marketing, pre-set automatically triggered sales usually represent a good 90 - 95% of the sales volume. Vince should know this. What's crazy is his thinking Alexa can determine this, trying to get others to think it does, ...or that others might actually believe him. Now THAT's crazy!

Judi, I respect your response but I think its time to reevaluate your business.  At the very least put a fresh coat of paint on your website and redo it.  240 or bust could problably give you a good deal. 

Vince, you don't know the meaning of the word respect.

You're not someone I choose to take advice from. My business is doing just fine.
My websites may not be perfect, but they do fulfill their purpose exceedingly well.

Anyone with eyes can just look through this thread to find it.  ::)
Even Stevie Wonder could find it.

I think you'd find people more interested in owning a supplement business over scrubbing garbage cans on any site.

Alexa and Google Ranks don't lie, ...it's the one doing the interpretation that does. In this case it's YOU!

What I haven't quite decided yet is if this is just you purposely trying to deceive readers who may not know any better, or if you're just using your usual skewed logic again?

For those who are unaware of how things work in the network mtkg arena, most retail customers do not purchase from a distributor's website. The distributor or customer orders the product directly from within their own back-office console, or through the company directly. The distributor is credited for the sale because that customer's account is linked to the distributor. If a retail customer calls in an order directly to the company, or if a distributor or wholesale consumer makes an order directly from their back-office console, there is no visit to the distributor's website, and no "hit" to show up on a Google or an Alexa ranking.  Why would a customer go to a website designed primarily to deliver information? ...especially when they have an automatic shipment of the product or service set up that comes to them every month on whatever day they choose, ...or their own account through which they can order what they want whenever they choose? My corporate replicated site is there to capture the odd retail sale from strangers who might come surfing through and want to order. As I've stated many times before, I prefer to allow customers to acquire their products or services at my cost, and make my income on the overall wholesale volume of all the orders. The only time I charge retail is if someone purchases from the retail cart, or if I have to physically handle the order, ...or if they've been a pain in the tush.

In all the years and all the different companies in network mtkg companies Vince has been in, ...he should know this, ...yet he appears to want you to believe that someone is going to buy something at retail when the distributor makes it available to them at wholesale. This makes Vince's comments disengenous, ...or it makes Vince a clued out fool. I'm inclined to believe it's a bit of both.

Dah! That's what a replicated site is. Network Mtkg is a business of duplication, ...but I doubt you understand that.

I've told you what that site is Vince, it's the corporate replicated site made available from the company that facilitates online ordering of Synergy products by retail customers. plain and simple. There is no "cover" for anything. My website existed long before the replicated website came into being.

I've never said arginine wasn't cheap. It is cheap. However cheap arginine without a rider can open you up to a world of hurt. If someone doesn't care about killing their sperm, or breaking out in cold sores, or any of the other harmfull and well documented side-effects of consuming disregulated arginine without a rider... they're free to do so. Oh no... I forgot, they're not, at least not in Canada. All arginine's started coming off the shelf as of May 16th, 2006. Health Regulatory agencies around the world are beginning to understand the dangers of disregulated arginine metabolism for the consumer. When it's possible to lower the costs of the 3 week 32-step process of making the rider (a process which up til now the biggest pharmaceutical companies have been unable to reverse engineer), then perhaps the price will go down. Until then, it is what it is. Personally, I don't understand why you're all up in arms about the price of products I promote, ...especially when they are higher than yours. If anything, I would think you'd be happy about that. I can only suppose the fact that more & more people are finding out about the dangers of using disregulated arginine and are asking for Synergy's ProArgi-9 brand by name, is beginning to get to you.

750,000 pages of documentation and approved claims by the FDA & FTC say otherwise. not to mention thousands of very satisfied users around the world.

I never said you did. In addition to being delusional, are you also illiterate as well?

Then why don't you act like the credible professional you're trying to appear like, and address issues raised in the thread, rather than go off on some personal attack against me, trying to deceive others in an attempt to make yourself look good. You compare apples to oranges and only deceive and mislead fools, ...or those without the knowledge or background to know you are being deceptive..





You are once again out of line on everything. 

Again, where is it that I attacked you personally or called you names?  But you seem to have broken the rules calling me illiterate and delusional.  But its ok because it doesn't change anything. 

Read between the lines Judi.  Your business isn't there yet and it never will be unfortunately unless you make some serious changes

She has no friggin clue what it means, so she answers like "a bitch".

Actually DF I know exactly what he means, I just think it's irrelevant. Alexa and Google rankings measure "hits", they don't measure sales, and they don't measure sales volumes within an organization. I can point to colleagues making well over $100,000.oo per month who have a replicated website that has probably never received a single hit, not to mention others who have never even bothered to configure theirs.

And who would this elusive referral have been Vince?  :o 

Hahaha. Vince you really should take up comedy. 

Don't you ever get tired of lying Vince? I've been in "business" since you were still in school.

Again this an example of misinterpetation.  I didn't say that you were working or related to Michael Forrest.


The alexa links change constant so I'm surprised, you can still use their wayback service to check websites from the past.  And they don't lie



The point is that you have no track record of anything, while I do have one of customers and clients.  But don't get upset if you don't like the responses I'm giving you because I'm answering your questions.  Not only that, again this is my thread and because you responded, you are welcome to public scutiny of your business.  But don't get it confused with personally attacking you.

Now I know your lying.  Do a google search for Jaguar Enterprises.  You'll find a famous person who's sitting in jail for selling these phony health machines.  Jaguarenterprises.com was owned by him.

A blatant attempt to try to associate me with a criminal? Wow Vince, that was a very cheap shot ...even for you.
You know I don't know him or have any association to him whatsoever, ...yet you put that out there? Unconscionable!  >:(

To the best of my knowledge, Jaguar Enterprises.com was never owned by Michael Forrest (the individual to whom you refer). When I first attempted to acquire it, the domain name was owned by an Indian engineering firm in Bombay, who had registered it through Network solutions I believe. It wasn't until 2004, when I saw they had let it lapse, that I acquired it to ensure that neither Michael Forrest nor anyone else could. This of course was before I knew of his legal woes. Had I known how much baggage the name came with, I never would have used it. Unfortunately, I had developed such a significant offline business under that name, that using it online was a natural. I could do nothing about him using a similar name, but I could stop him from acquiring the TLD names which I did. I also acquired the .net TLD after the kid in Texas who ran the karaoke website didn't renew as well. At the time, .com and .net were the 2 most popular domain extensions, and I was sick of people inadvertently typing other people's sites into their web browsers

Quote
You didn't get the domain until 2004.

Isn't that what I have just previously said. It wasn't until 2004 that I was able to get the .com extension

Quote
If you did have a website in 1999, where is it.  Alexa has the Wayback Machine which can scan for past website.

{rotflmao} oh ya, like I'm really gonna tell you what any of my other domain names or websites are?
Why, so you can try to stalk me on those too? No thanks. You're hardly what I could consider the ideal publicist.

I will leave you with this though. I just took a screenshot of my GoDaddy back office. I trust you'll recognize it since you also use GoDaddy as the registrar for your site. I've deleted my customer number, as well as receipt numbers for obvious reasons, ...but as you can see I've acquired a significant amount of domain names from then dating back to 2001.



Prior to becoming a GoDaddy customer I used Network Solutions and e-Nom. As for my website in 1999, you won't be getting that from me. Do you actually think I'd give that to you so you can try to construct more lies about me?

Give it a rest Judi because its pointless.  You're not making money in Synergy or any other company and we all know it. 

If you say so.  ::)
