Essentially Yours is a network marketing company that was established by Canadian doctor Harry R. Alsleben in 1999. Most of the company’s offices are located in the city of Burnaby with a few set up in the United States in and around the Philadelphia area. As is true of many of the MLM companies that are still in operation, Essentially Yours markets various body care, weight-loss, and health care products. With so much expansion still going on in the Health and Wellness industry, every other year a new business opens to exploit this innovative marketplace.

Essentially Yours does this by promoting its own line of merchandise and highlighting a single product called Calorad, a collagen-based protein liquid supplement that has substantial abilities to reduce body weight in little to no time at all. Propelled by unsubstantiated testimonies, the numbers of people who have used Calorad and achieved noticeable results has led to its popularity. Moreover, the lack of scientific studies or facts to support effects of this product cast a dark shadow on the motives of Essentially Yours.

Accordingly, Essentially Yours continues to operate on a low-key basis, limiting the presence of independent distributors in order to maintain a level of discretion. This need is likely responsible for the company’s decision to attempt marketing outside of the U.S. in order to escape the regulations imposed by the federal government. By subtle distinctions, its products slid by FDA agents due to their classification as herbal supplements rather than drugs.

A notable difference between Essentially Yours and many other multilevel marketing companies is the fact that they offer binary sales and compensation plan. The distributor will have a better chance of making some real profits. The company notes four specific ways this is possible using their programs: one, you earn  profits from retailing products; two, you will be able get discounts based on the sale of products; three, you will be able to earn a certain amount of commission from the people you recruited; and four, money can be earned from bonuses.

From all appearances, Essentially Yours is what it claims to be. It is a quality service that manufactures the majority of its own products while adhering to very high standards of quality, so each product is delivered promptly.
