Jaguar Marketing / Mentors on a Mission is a Multi-level marketing (MLM) company. Since MLM has a bad reputation, MLM companies will often try to hide the fact that they are an MLM. To quote from the Jaguar Marketing website:
———————-
“After you pass your first sale to your sponsor you are qualified. From that point forward every system generated sale pays you either $1000 or $3000 and at the same time creates a new payline for you. You can have unlimited paylines
Every person entering one of your paylines has to give you their first sale down to infinity. This is the real power of Jaguar - MS. As the number of your paylines increases the number of systems out there working to earn you money also increases.”
———————-
This is a typical MLM that uses a 1-up compensation plan (your first sale is given to your sponsor). You are making your money by building a downline (or payline as they call it). The downline/payline is the chain of people (the multi-level of MLM) below you who have also signed up with the plan.
The Federal Trade Commission has published an advisory regarding multilevel marketing. The FTC lists some tips for evaluating an MLM before joining. Two of these tips are noteworthy in the case of Jaguar Marketing:
* Be cautious of plans that claim you will make money through continued growth of your downline, that is, the number of distributors you recruit.
(This is exactly what Jaguar Marketing is doing in the plan description above)
* Do your homework! Check with your local Better Business Bureau and state Attorney General about any plan you’re considering - especially when the claims about the product or your potential earnings seem too good to be true.
Jaguar Marketing System (aka Predator Marketing System) is part of Mentors on a Mission, created by Alan Turnquist in Saint Petersburg, FL. You can look it up in the BBB and find that it has an unsatisfactory rating because they do not respond to complaints. Even if these complaints were minor or misunderstandings, it is a poor business strategy to ignore them, and to ignore the BBB in general. Sure, most companies will get a complaint at one time or another, but if they are a respectable company, they will RESPOND to the complaint. Besides not responding to complaints, they also do not respond to the BBB when asked for basic information about the nature of their business.

Although SJ’s response describes a blemish on the company in question, it should be realized that each and every company, online and offline, makes mistakes and has it’s unsatisfied customers.
The Jaguar Marketing System and it’s parent company, Mentors on a Mission is NOT an MLM company. The compensation is a 1-Up plan that produces paylines, instead of downlines like in a traditional MLM company. 1-Up plans are also legal.
I’ve been with The Jaguar Marketing System since it was launched in 2006. I have no complaints. The company delivered everything it promised and more. The training is 2nd to none, with it I have reached either #1 or page 1 on Google, Yahoo, and MSN Live. With results like that, it’s a wonder why all business owners are not jumping all over this.
I’ve never had a complaint, but I’ve had serious questions. I was able to call Mr. Turnquist on his cell, it’s accessible to every member, or I was always able to contact someone in the office. Each and every time.
If you’re expecting to hand over a check and be wealthy within 6 months, don’t even bother. There are no businesses out there that can deliver that. But, you will get guidance and training on how to properly market your business with little to no cost.
