The Uniqueness of Agel
Agel (as in "ageless" or "a gel") was founded in 2005 as a solution to everyday nutrient absorption. Founder Glen Jensen was laying in bed thinking about how to technologically advance the health and wellness industry, and he came up with Suspension Gel Technology, or at least the idea behind it.
Athletes pound gel packets for enhanced performance just before big competitions. So what if everyday people could do the same? This is how the idea formed.
The products claim to be revolutionary. The company states that pill forms of vitamins end up sitting in the system before being digested by the body. But the gels allow for immediate vitamin absorption.
Their product ranges vary, from gelceuticals to facial products. The gelceuticals are a range of small gel packets, used for various purposes: increased energy, vitamin intake, appetite suppression, loss of free radicals, better overall health, improved immunity, detox, healthy joints, heart protection, and finally a "beauty enhancer."
The list of cures from these gelceuticals is long. But do they really perform all of these functions? Wouldn't the FDA need to approve them for these purposes first?
The Pros and Cons of Gel
Actually, the FDA has approved the products, although not for weight loss or any other truly specific purposes.
Critics state that Agel's products operate on the basis that hydroxycitric acid is a main ingredient, and it promotes weight loss, among other things. The problem is that trials have not yet been done on humans to determine the effectiveness of this chemical compound.
So what's the real story?
Like many other products (Herbalife, for example) the benefits aren't scientifically proven. But sales records show that it's not imperative for science to be on the side of the network marketer. Many truly believe that these product work; and they very well may. But the more important part of a representative's job is trying the products themselves, and making their own educated decisions.
Network marketers should only sell products that they stand by, 100%. A rep has to live and breathe a product, especially in the early stages of building their business. If you don't believe in it, others won't either. This is critical.
Aside from having complete faith in a product like Agel, it's also important to know exactly how to market it. Gel is an amazing, unique opportunity in the MLM community. But if you don't know how to sell it, people will never believe in the product. It's important to take time and learn the steps and skills needed for success with a potential money-maker like Agel.
