Vitel Wireless, founded by James Pearson and Scott Rogers, launched in January 2010, operating from Texas. Pearson serves as Chief Operating Officer, with Rogers as Chief Executive Officer. The company's website initially requires visitors to enter existing member details or accept a random assignment to a "Platinum Executive Business Owners" group before providing access.
New users are then directed to watch a promotional video or sign up directly. The site offers no detailed company information before enrollment. Those seeking specifics about Vitel Wireless must close the website and search for details elsewhere.
Scott Rogers' executive biography on the Vitel site mentions prior involvement in non-MLM industries. His bio covers 2003-2010 by stating he was a "successful entrepreneur for the last 8 years" without naming specific MLM companies. James Pearson's executive bio is less clear, referring only to the "retail finance industry" and general "entrepreneurial spirit and finance management experiences." Public records show no apparent MLM history for Pearson prior to Vitel Wireless in 2010.
Vitel Wireless itself does not appear to sell products directly. Instead, it offers a range of services through third-party vendor partners. These include cell phones, both post and prepaid wireless phone service, energy, debit cards, prepaid debit cards, satellite TV, and home security. Vitel resells these services from other companies.
The company's compensation plan appears poorly presented on the Vitel website. Explanations are minimal, and the structure lacks clarity. It directs readers to four separate PDF files outlining different commission structures, then returns to the main page for discussions of bonuses, residual commissions, and membership ranks.
The compensation plan documentation also lists "Legal Care Services" and a "Benefits Network," which are not mentioned elsewhere on the Vitel website. A linked booklet within the material indicates these services are third-party offers available to "Executive" and "Platinum" Vitel members. Furthermore, a link to overview videos on the compensation plan page currently does not work.
