Nikken MLM Home Business Review

.
0 comments

Nikken Inc. is a wellness based company with its world headquarters located in Irvine, California. Nikken offers a home business opportunity by selling or marketing their products through MLM or multilevel marketing.

The Nikken product line consists of a large array of products. They include Air Filters/Air Filtration Systems, Aromatherapy, Cookware, Cosmetics, Health/Fitness/Wellness, Jewelry, Nutritional Supplements, Personal Care, Skincare, Water Treatment Systems, and Weight Management products. The product line has a lot of variety as you can see. Some testimonials that have been given by individuals that have consumed Nikken products include statements of increased energy and stamina, relief from headaches, arthritis, and other health related symptoms.

The business opportunity provided by Nikken contains a stairstep-breakaway compensation plan. This is one of the most easily confused and hard to explain comp plans. A big part of the stairstep-breakaway comp plan is that when a distributor reaches a certain qualifying point, they then breakaway from their original sponsor. When this happens, the original sponsor will now only get a certain percentage of everything the sponsored distributor's group is doing. When you take a look at the industry average, the Nikken compensation plan is not a bad comp plan, but each individual must be prepared to recruit.

In conclusion, Nikken seems to have a decent product line and the compensation plan would rate out as a fair in the MLM industry. If you don't mind having to get an average of 100-200 people on your team to make a $1000 residual check each month (which is pretty true with any MLM opportunity), then the Nikken business might be a great fit for you.

About Nikken

.
0 comments

Nikken started in Japan back in 1976. At the moment they're about 25 years old, a fact that is often referred to by the company's representatives. They have a large market share in Japan and are now established in several countries. Most of their sales happen as far as I've understood in Japan and the USA, but they're also advancing quickly in Europe.

Nikken is based on a philosophy which states that life should be based on 5 pillars: a healthy body, a healthy mind, a healthy family, a healthy society and a healthy economy. To help you out with getting a healthy body they'll sell you a large variety of products. Most of these for sale in Norway are based on a magnetism. They do also sell other things like nutrional products, video films about their philosophy and Nikken's products as well as products for cleaning and "energizing" of water (both drinking water and the water in your shower).

When it comes to the healthy economy they'll like you to achieve one by selling their products to people you known (by the principle of network marketing). In addition to the usual profits from the products you sell directly and those sold by those you recruit there does (at least in the US) exist bonus systems with free cars, subsidized housing and luxurious cruises. The system is also designed to make you advance in status through further training and also by how much cashflow you generate.

I'm not going to write a lot about the company's history. Should you wish to read more about it I suggest you visit their website. [NIKKEN.COM]

Products based on magnets

First product to be demonstrated were the magnetic insoles. A "volunteer" was brought up and they tried to push him out of balance, first standing simply on the floor then standing on the insoles. Of course it was impossible to get him out of balance while standing on the insoles. The effect was explained as coming from the insole's magnetic force polarizing the body, which in turn makes it respond more quickly when somebody tries to get it out of balance. In addition it was said that the insoles can achieve increased blood circulation in the legs and less pain in the back and neck.

Next product were a couple of magnetic balls with knobs on them. These come with a frame so they can be used sitting in that frame for a massage, or you can take them out to play with them in your hand. I was asked to volunteer for this demonstration, accepted, and got one of the balls to hold in my hand. The presenter spun one of the balls in the frame underneath my hand and asked me if I felt anything. Of course I did feel something since the ball in my hand vibrated from the ball spinning below it. That can be easily explained by the laws of magnetic forces (basic physics knowledge). She concluded that the magnetic force would naturally effect the body in close proximity of the magnetic field.

The demonstration didn't end there, instead she'd like to demonstrate how the magnetic force could increase my flexibility. It started with her stretching the muscles in my chest (pectoids) by pulling my arms backwards until I told her to stop. Then I got to rest for a couple of minutes while she spun the two balls behind my back, thereby making the magnetic force affect my muscles. The stretching exercise was then repeated, and was supposed to result in my arms being able to go further back than when the test started.

During the two minutes I rested I was asked if I felt anything. To this question I answered "no" since I couldn't feel any effect at all from the magnets. Instead I felt a warmth going through the muscles in my chest, which in my opinion is a natural consequence from the stretching increasing the blood circulation. During gym classes at school we were taught that warming up meant more flexible muscles, and since the muscles in my chest became warmer it would result in them being more flexible. I am not surprised that this "example of the effect of a magnetic force" can be explained by simple principles of medicine and doesn't need any magnetism to work. The second stretch didn't show any particular increase, but I'm rather flexible from years of training.

Other magnetic products were also shown: different wraps for parts of the body, single magnets to be put where needed, a mattress and a pillow. These were told to have an effect on low blood circulation from diabetes, pains in fingers, elbow, shoulders and neck resulting from sitting in front of the computer, and PMS. Among these was a product for the wrist claiming to cure pain coming from working with a computer, particularly over long periods of time like 10-12 hours at work. Nobody mentioned that sitting 10-12 hours in front of a computer isn't a particularly good idea to start with. I'll get back to magnet therapy later.
