Gifting Clubs Review: Abundant Living System(1) Overview : The Abundant Living System (ALS) is one of the leading gifting clubs available. ALS boasts a 1-up gifting structure with more gifting levels than any of its competitors. The lowest gifting level begins from $75. The program provides the members with comprehensive marketing support. (2) Payment Plan : The ALS uses the popular 1-up pay structure. This means that your first sign-up is passed up to your inviter, thus providing a potential significant leverage income from a modest downline. (3) Products : The ALS has no associated products. (4) Gifting Levels & Admin Costs : ALS has a wide range of gifting levels beginning with as low as $75 and increasing through $12,000. The admin fee is $50. (5) Support : The Abundant Living system provides a good set of promotional tools, including banners, call back options, training videos, advertising co-ops, etc. The lead capture pages are fully customizable with videos, audio, pictures and other graphics. Note, however, that some features are optional and will therefore require additional expenditure. (6) Pros : The low gifting level of $75 is likely to appeal to those on a tight budget. (7) Cons : In less than 1 year ALS has dropped its gifting level from $150 to $75 and the admin fee from $150 to $50. This could be an indication that ALS is losing members to other programs (8) Legality :This program is likely illegal due to the lack of products. US federal and state laws consider any gifting program without products to be an illegal pyramid scheme. (9) Reports & Complaints : There are allegations of unethical behavior by management, including unfair practices with regards to the advertising co-op. (10) Overall Assessment : Abundant Living System is a popular program with many attractive features including the low entry fees, and support tools. The 1-up structure encourages team building and powerful leveraging. Like other gifting clubs without supporting products, one should consider the legal implications before joining ALS.
