Life Path Unlimited – The Review

Introduction

LifePath Unlimited was started in 2006, by 2 ex Liberty League reps, as a result of a dispute with the management of Liberty League.  Despite a rocky start the company has gone from strength to strength.  Like Liberty League (now known as Polaris Media Group), LifePath Unlimited markets big ticket personal development products.

Type of Pay Plan

Although a network marketing company, LifePath Unlimited does not use a multi level marketing style pay plan.  Instead they use a ‘2 up’ pay plan.  The 2 up plan more closely resembles a traditional direct sales model, in that the person who makes the sale makes the money, rather than an upline as in MLM programs.  The 2 Up plan works on the basis that a certain number of training sales are required (usually 2) to be made before the new rep can earn a commission.

It should be noted that LifePath Unlimited is at pains to point out that there is no requirement to do 2 training sales to receive commission for their first level product.  However training sales are required in order for the rep to earn a commission on their higher level products, which is really where the money is.

As stated, the LifePath Unlimited pay plan favors the person who makes the sale, with 58 per cent of the sales revenue being paid as up front commission.  When you consider that their cheapest product sells for $US1,695, you can readily see that the commission for selling this product, at $1,000, is very attractive.

Start Up Costs

Although there is no requirement from LifePath Unlimited to purchase the products, the pay plan makes it almost mandatory to do so.  Without the products the training sale requirements become too onerous for the average person.  Besides, if you don’t own the products yourself how can you ever hope to influence anyone else to do likewise?   That said, here is a breakdown of the costs to get involved:

The Awakening DVD: $29.95
The Discovery Series: $1,695
The Breakthrough Event: $8,995
The Destiny Event: $14,995
Synergy Training Conference: $144
LPU Membership (6 months): $97

The Products

LifePath Unlimited offers 3 products:

1. Discovery Home Study. Includes 8 CD’s, the Awakening DVD, Introduction to Free Enterprise CD, three credit card style goal cards, wire bound Trailblazer Journal, 56 Days to Destiny course, and weekly invitations to weekly live Beyond Discovery Sessions.  This package seems to be better value than the home study product which was being offered by the now defunct Liberty League.

2. Breakthrough Event. A 4 day, 3 night conference for two people.  All inclusions including meals, beverages and transfers.  Airfare is extra.  Also includes a fire walk and a black tie Saturday night function.  The last LifePath Unlimited event was held in Sydney, Australia in August.  By all accounts the conference was a success.

3. Destiny Event. Ouch, at $14,995 this is a very pricey conference. Is it worth it?  I ain’t gonna find out that’s for sure.  But let’s see what the company web site says:

“The pinnacle of LifePath Unlimited’s culture of abundance, prosperity, joy and celebration is Destiny, a lavish five-day event held annually at one of the most amazing resorts in the world.  At Destiny, you will learn from and interact with some of the most empowered, enlightened and successful people on the planet and discover new frontiers of personal insight, fulfillment and abundance.   Destiny is an extraordinary and uplifting experience replete with unique transforming activities and exercises that will allow you to evolve beyond all fears and limitations and transcend into a new way of being.”

Wow! One part of me says ’sign me up’.  The other says ‘that's a lot of money’.  You be the judge.

What is the Earning Potential with LifePath Unlimited?

The sky is the limit with LifePath Unlimited.  Indeed there are now many examples of stupendous incomes being generated by a few reps within their first few months in the business.  In fact it has been reported that one of their newish reps – based in Australia – earned a commission of more than $150,000 in a single month.

So there is no doubt that big money can be made with LifePath Unlimited, although as you would expect only a handful of people relative to the distributor force as a whole, will ever make this kind of money.  But it is nice to know what is possible.

By the way, the big money is NOT being made by people who focus on selling their first tier home study product.  On the contrary the big money is made when someone buys all three products.

Is LifePath Unlimited a Scam?

LifePath Unlimited is not a scam.  It has legitimate products, a sound compensation plan, and complies with FTC regulations in the US (and probably complies with regulations in most if not all countries around the world).  It should be noted that LifePath Unlimited Australia had some issues with recalcitrant Australian distributors who were acting unethically by making outrageous claims about competitor companies (in particular the previously mentioned Liberty League).  I understand that these issues have now been resolved.

The Future for LifePath Unlimited

The future of LifePath Unlimited is looking good.  They are doing big business, and they’re expanding into different countries.

Whilst technically the company is compliant, many jurisdictions do not like big ticket product 2 up style programs.  In fact, Liberty League in Australia had to change their way of doing business, or risk being shut down.  As LifePath Unlimited grows, it will be put under the spot light.  That’s a given.  How they handle that scrutiny will determine if they survive and prosper (and join the ranks of the long term players in the industry), or go the way of thousands of other networking companies.  Extinct like the dodo.

Why I Did Not Join LifePath Unlimited

I didn’t join LifePath Unlimited for a few reasons:

1. Little or No Residual Income Potential. There is nothing wrong with marketing big ticket products for big commissions.  In fact this was the approach I took when I joined the online marketing industry in 2006.  To me the ideal plan is one that is great for short term cash flow, but also builds long term residual style income.  LifePath Unlimited does not provide that balance.

2.  Expensive Products. No doubt about it, these products are expensive.  Many would say they are overpriced.  It is hard to justify spending $14,995 on a conference, no matter how good it is.

3.  Probable Regulatory Scrutiny in the Future. Even though LifePath Unlimited may comply with the the laws of the land, the fact is that these programs entice people to join and spend big money to acquire the products.  Some of these people will not make money and may end up looking for scapegoats for their own lack of success.  This can get ugly, and LifePath Unlimited may experience this reality as the company grows.

4. Too Much Phone Work. These big ticket LifePath Unlimited programs often do not have an automated information system.   They tend to require the rep to make a lot of calls to leads.  Despite what the promoters say, superb phone skills are mandatory.  If the prospect detects any lack of confidence or belief from the caller, they will run a mile.  If you have any doubt as to your ability on the phone you should think carefully about joining a company like LifePath Unlimited.
