Next month in April will be our 19th Anniversary since becoming Melaleuca customers in 2006. I thought this would be a great time to point out something that has NEVER happened to us that entire time.
Let me begin by highlighting a Melaleuca policy which some potential new customers balk at, or at least initially, before they understand it so they can really appreciate it. First though, a vitally important point that when not made serves to help create the unnecessary knee jerk reaction to the policy:
There is no minimum order required to be a Melaleuca customer!
Now I can outline the policy, the reason for it, and the profound benefits it provides every customer while it benefits Melaleuca in a way that provides those benefits to every customer. The policy only affects those who want to receive the 30% to 50% discount on products, which by the way is by far the vast majority of customers. There is a monthly minimum purchase volume required which equates to approximately $75. Every Melaleuca product is assigned a “point value” which must equal a total of no less than 35 points each month. This is clearly emphasized when you enroll and decide if you want to be a “Preferred Customer” and receive the discount, and a rather large list of other benefits, or just simply order without any monthly commitment level (a choice that can be changed any time).
To assure you will never inadvertently lose your Preferred Customer status, you will be able to choose a standard backup order or create your own custom backup order which Melaleuca will ship to you automatically if you fail to order on your own. The list of reasons this might happen is endless so this backup order is equal to an insurance policy.
The types of purchases a non Melaleuca customer makes during their normal retail shopping are not only surprisingly toxic and always inferior to Melaleuca products, those costs are integrated into their total retail purchases in a way that very few people realize how much impact they have on the total store receipt/cost. Add the hidden cost of their toxicity and repercussions and the real costs are staggering! The Melaleuca minimum easily becomes a no brainer when you run the calculations, and exponentially more so when you experience the product differences.
So that thing that has never happened to us in 19 years…we have NEVER received a backup order of products! I couldn’t even tell you what’s on it after all this time but the selections can be changed at any time. If something were to ever happen where we received a backup order, I do know nothing in the package would go to waste. A single person household can super easily do 35 points every month, especially with over 400 products Melaleuca produces that are better at every level than you can find elsewhere. Our 19 years as customers has proven to us that Melaleuca’s commitment to always be better than even far more expensive products has never been compromised. Their entire business model assures they can always keep doing that.
