ScamTelegraph reports that Kaz Spence, an early Australian distributor for Polaris Global, has publicly disavowed her past association with the company. Her reasons include the departure of co-founder Brent Payne and concerns over verified rumors of Scientology involvement within its leadership, contrasting with other distributors' positive accounts of the compensation plan.
The experience of Polaris Global distributors often varies significantly. One distributor, Susan Shaw, enthusiastically claimed on September 2, 2009, that the company's "2 up compensation plan" enabled participants to "make a fortune." Shaw stated she had earned approximately $200,000 US in a year, and observed that associates who joined after her had earned substantially more. This perspective highlights a common sentiment among those actively promoting the business model.
However, this optimistic view stands in stark contrast to the recent statements made by Kaz Spence. Spence is recognized as the first Australian distributor for what was initially Liberty League International, later known as Polaris Media Group, and ultimately Polaris Global. While not the most financially successful, her early involvement gives her a unique perspective on the company's evolution.
Spence has recently joined Brent Payne in his new multi-level marketing venture, Avant, as part of its leadership team. This new affiliation appears to be a catalyst for her to publicly distance herself from her past involvement with Polaris Global. In a recent press release for Avant, Spence explicitly stated, "I do not associate myself in business with Polaris Global, Polaris Global Marketing, Polaris Media Group (all name changes since August 2009!)." She also clarified that she has never been involved with Scientology.
Spence detailed the reasons for her strong disassociation, tracing them back to early 2009 when co-founder Brent Payne abruptly departed the company. She noted that after Payne's exit, the business environment became increasingly unsettling, accompanied by numerous rumors regarding the remaining founder. The company then underwent a significant transformation in August 2009, morphing into Polaris Media Group.
Among the circulating rumors, one prominent claim was that the remaining co-founder and many high-level leaders were involved in Scientology. Spence, while expressing respect for individual beliefs, found it challenging to align herself with a company whose leadership was associated with Scientology, particularly after she was able to verify this rumor as true. Polaris Global has consistently denied any influence of Scientology on its operations or products over time.
