Deciding on a CompanySuccess in direct sales depends on your choice of company. Your vehicle to success needs
all parts working. Four key business principles have to be present, according to Dr. Charles
King, Harvard graduate, University of Illinois at Chicago professor and business consultant:
Marketplace Demand, Consumable Product, Timing and Leveragability.
Arbonne supplies the demand and the consumable product. The best timing is now. And
leveragability is ensured by how the Arbonne business community works.
Sponsoring Preferred Clients and Consultants gives you the opportunity to build a team. In
traditional business, the company just leverages you. With Arbonne, you earn based on your
sales and the sales of your team. You gain and they all gain, sharing effort just like you share
the product. The spirit of the business is team building and building sales opportunities.

Preferred Clients/Consultants1, Managers and Vice Presidents can earn commissions,
overrides and bonuses, based on their own sales of products and the sales of their downline
of sponsored Arbonne Independent Consultants in the United States, its territories2, Canada
and the International Markets in which Arbonne does business. Arbonne also sells promotional
materials — known as Business Aids — that do not generate overrides and bonuses to
Arbonne Independent Consultants because these are sales support tools, not products.
During 2007, the Company paid in excess of $226 million* in overrides and bonuses to Arbonne
Independent Consultants in the United States and its territories2. These payments are reflected

THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES REGARDING INCOME, AND THE SUCCESS OR FAILURE OF EACH ARBONNE INDEPENDENT CONSULTANT, LIKE ANY OTHER BUSINESS, DEPENDS ON EACH ARBONNE INDEPENDENT CONSULTANT’S OWN SKILLS AND PERSONAL EFFORT. YOU SHOULD NOT RELY ON THE RESULTS OF OTHER ARBONNE INDEPENDENT CONSULTANTS AS AN INDICATION OF WHAT YOU SHOULD EXPECT TO EARN. ARBONNE IS A PRODUCT-DRIVEN COMPANY THAT STRONGLY ENCOURAGES CONSUMERS TO USE ITS PRODUCTS BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO BUILD A BUSINESS.

The Facts About the Arbonne OpportunityThe Arbonne program offers an exceptional opportunity to earn a highly lucrative income,
but it should not be mistaken for a financial panacea. Persons providing testimonials in
this brochure are among the most successful Independent Consultants in the Arbonne
program. Owning your own independent Arbonne business takes hard work, dedication,
skill and the ability to be self-motivated. Your success as an Arbonne Independent
Consultant depends on how well you exercise these qualities, and Arbonne does not
guarantee your success.
To ensure that prospective Arbonne Independent Consultants are informed of the
annual financial success rates achieved by all Arbonne Independent Consultants, and
not just the highly compensated, Arbonne posts its annual Independent Consultant
Compensation Summary (ICCS) at arbonne.com. The ICCS can also be ordered
online or by calling 1.800.ARBONNE.
While owning your own business presents the opportunity for business-related tax
deductions under proper circumstances, you should consult with a tax professional to
determine which, if any, deductions your business may qualify for.
