Company overview
SISEL (pronounced “sizzle”) is an acronym for; Science, Innovation, Success, Energy and Longevity.
Sisel International is an mlm company founded in 2006 by Tom Mower Sr. and his son Tom Mower Jr. The company is located in Utah. They currently operate in 12 countries around the world. They have an impressive 400,000 square foot state of the art manufacturing facility in Utah.
Products
This product line includes nutritional liquids, weight loss, nutritional supplements, hair, dental and body care, skin care, cosmetics, an exquisite mineral makeup line called Timeless Minerals, aromatherapy and even some home care products that they currently include a liquid laundry detergent. and dish soap.
In its liquid nutrients, SISEL uses Tonga’s limu moui seaweed extract to create what many fucoidan researchers believe to be the most powerful fucoidan supplement available on the market today.
SISEL products are priced the same for everyone, regardless of whether they are Distributors or Preferred Customers.
Apparently there is an incentive for distributors and customers to follow an autoship program.
One of its liquid nutrients is Eternity. The price is $ 50 plus tax and shipping, but if you participate in an automatic purchase program, you can save $ 7.
Cost to become a distributor
There is currently a $ 20 upfront cost and a $ 15 annual automatic renewal fee charged to your credit card on the anniversary of the date you signed up.
Preferred customer program
Every time a registered Preferred Customer purchases a product, you earn a commission and he increases the Preferred Customer points that they can redeem for free products.
Compensation plan
Sisel has a 12-page compensation plan online on its corporate site.
SISEL’s compensation plan is a hybrid plan, which means that it incorporates different methods of calculating commissions.
1. Fast start bonus
2. Direct Dealer Bonus
3. Main dealer bonus
4. Builder bonus
5. Lifestyle bonus
Although the Fast Start Bonus still appears on its corporate site, the company’s newsletter said it would be discontinued in 2009 to make room for the revolutionary Leadership Bonus that would begin to be paid from the first qualifying day. They had also mentioned that they had an Executive Lateral Transfer program until 2009.

Main Distributor: AP Gold or Platinum (more than 150 PV), 1000 PGV, 5000 CPGV
Training and support
Sisel offers some sales tools, however I didn’t see any training tools offered by them.
I am assuming you get your training from your sponsor, which is the way most mlm companies operate.
Internet Marketing Policy
Does this company allow internet marketing? This is a very important point to consider before joining any business! Social media and internet marketing have become innovative ways to reach millions of people on the internet. However, many companies still do not realize that we have entered the information age and prohibit distributors from advertising on the Internet.
Although Sisel International has strict rules about advertising or marketing their products on the Internet, they seem to offer distributors the opportunity to design their own website. The website must be submitted for approval and must comply with the specific guidelines set forth in your policy. If approved, they apparently have to pay an annual website registration fee of $ 1000.
The corporate website appears to be a replicated website with a product page, automated shopping cart, and online dealer registration.
Social networks
Sisel has a link to a media center on her corporate home page and also links to social media sites which are currently Facebook and Twitter. They also have a link to a company blog that was started in April 2010.
How do you get distributors and customers?
There are business opportunity meetings scheduled on the corporate events calendar, so I assume you need to recruit people to attend hotel meetings. I didn’t see any mention of ways to recruit, so I’m assuming you go after your friends, family, and co-workers.
Apparently, they also promote Timeless Home Party Meetings as a fun way to get information about their Timeless beauty products and learn how to throw a party at home.
My review
In reviewing all that Sisel International has to offer, they appear to be a good company. There is a low start-up cost that makes it attractive to bankrupt people who want to start a business, yet how many people really want to take their friends and family to hotels or have parties at home?
To be successful and continually grow this business, you will need to recruit others and sell products and teach your group to do the same. If that’s what you’re looking for, the Sisel International opportunity might be a good fit for you.
However, they don’t seem to have a background in marketing, as is the case with most MLMs. The reason 95% of network marketers fail is because they have untrained people teaching untrained people. Without the proper training and coaching, most people will fail, so if you want to join Sisel and be in the top 5%, you need to seek a mentor and participate in a leadership development program.
If you are unwilling to seek a mentor and participate in a leadership development program, I suggest that you continue to search for a network marketing company that provides marketing training and allows you to market your products on the internet. Otherwise, you might be interested in looking for an internet based product and company to learn the skills to earn money online as an alternative.
