Jason Spurlock founded Network Marketing VT in Florida around January 2012. The company promises members can earn 100% commission on sales without selling products or talking to anyone, relying instead on an automated system. This combination of claims often signals a closer look is needed.
Spurlock previously ran UProfitPro with John and Shannon Lavenia. He also launched The PowerLine 1000 Marketing System. An earlier attempt at a membership site, OBE Pro, started in 2009 but never gained traction. Network Marketing VT appears to follow a similar operational blueprint.
The company offers no tangible product. Members pay a $98 joining fee for access to training e-books. Some of these e-books include "Private Label Rights," allowing members to resell them independently. This reselling activity operates outside the Network Marketing VT compensation plan and does not contribute to how members earn money within the company itself.
Network Marketing VT pays a 100% commission on the $98 membership sales. Recruit a new member, and that $98 goes directly to the recruiter. But the system includes a "3-up" rule. The commissions from a new member's first three recruits are passed up to their upline. In return, the new member automatically receives the first three sales from each of their own first three recruits. The original recruiter also keeps $98 for every person they personally bring into the system beyond the initial three.
Joining costs $98. After that, members pay a $19.95 monthly fee. This recurring charge covers a replicated website and marketing materials designed to help members recruit more people.
Network Marketing VT makes its money solely from this $19.95 monthly fee. The company receives none of the $98 membership sales; those funds pass entirely between members. All income for Network Marketing VT comes from members paying the monthly fee to maintain active participation in the system.
This structure presents an income opportunity built on recruitment, disguised as an automated system. Members do not build a customer base for an actual product. Instead, they pay monthly fees for tools that facilitate recruiting the next group of members, who then pay the same fees. The entire revenue model depends on a continuous influx of new recruits.
The claims of "you don't have to sell anything" and "100% commission" are technically accurate. No physical products are sold. And participants do receive 100% of the commission dollars. However, these dollars only exist because people pay to join a system designed for recruitment. The monthly membership fee does not fund company operations in the traditional sense; it funds member payouts. Without ongoing recruitment, no income exists for anyone in the system.
