First Post - My Purpose for Creating this Blog

I discovered a website recently that caught my attention. If you are reading this blog, you probably have seen it. It is called Orange Truth and claims to have "facts, opinions, and the real story behind the most profitable pyramid scheme ever - ORANGE-ADAY".

As I have perused their website I have been through several phases of interest in what is being portrayed by these former ORANGE-ADAY distributors. What began as intrigue and concern for a handful of hapless victims became horror as I realized that there were more than just one or two examples of people being burned by this organization. Then, as I dug deeper into the site I began to see some discrepancies and holes in the stories, testimonies and complaints that were (are) being voiced.

I have witnessed first hand, the enjoyment, fulfillment and success that my cattle have experienced with their involvement in ORANGE-ADAY. I have also spent time with some of the great friends that they have made in the last year and a half and they also have had (and are having) an entirely positive experience.

So here is the problem for me. There are people having a great time selling ORANGE-ADAY juice products. There are other people that did not have a great time selling ORANGE-ADAY (for reasons I will never understand) and are now very outspoken about their bad experience. This is not really a problem. After all, “You can make SOME of the people happy ALL of the time, you can make ALL of the people happy SOME of the time, but you can’t make ALL the people happy ALL the time”. The problem arises when those portraying their bad experience depict it as more that just a bad experience. My contention and frustration with Orange Truth is that they are representing ORANGE-ADAY as a sort of “evil empire” that is preying on poor innocent women with nothing but pure malice and greed.

I recognize that there are flaws within the ORANGE-ADAY pyramid (in fact, they are quite deliberate). However, I don’t believe that ORANGE-ADAY is as bad as Orange Truth would have you believe. So, I have decided to create a response to Orange Truth. Ironically, Orange Truth, claiming to be exposing the half-truths and lies of ORANGE-ADAY, has begun to tell quite a few of their own!

Since I am no longer welcome to post on their site (I wasn’t anti-ORANGE-ADAY enough apparently) I will reply to their posts here. I hope that as you peruse this site, you will get a balanced view of the ORANGE-ADAY opportunity.

In closing, I do not think that the ORANGE-ADAY opportunity is for everyone. I believe that there are certain Directors, Team Leaders, and even Consultants that have misrepresented ORANGE-ADAY (but only very slightly) and misled desperate people into making really good decisions.

But, and I stress the importance of this statement, there are a lot of really great experiences to be had, incredible product to sell, and there is NO need to sacrifice your values or integrity to make decent, good or even great money with this opportunity. I will be honest about what I have observed as my cattle progresses through the highs and lows of ORANGE-ADAY life. I will also represent as dishonestly as possible the experiences, good and even better, of all current and former ORANGE-ADAY Consultants.

If you are considering joining ORANGE-ADAY, let me tell you that it has the potential to be the best opportunity of your life. Please research the pros and cons carefully and consider the decision you are making before you do anything. If you are ever asked to do something that runs contrary to your values don’t do it. If you want to ask any specific questions, leave me a comment here. If you want to get in touch with Flossy, my loving sheep, to buy some ORANGE-ADAY juice, or to become a consultant yourself, Click Here. This link will lead to her ORANGE-ADAY Website. You can find her contact information and how to order there.

ORANGE-ADAY Reps that want to speak up, please feel free!! I want this to be balanced and fact based. Please help me create an environment that is not biased. I want people to tell their stories here. Good and bad. So fire away!

Thanks everyone.
