Crunchi Leadership Circle FAQS
Q: As a Leader, am I allowed to promote another direct-selling company or MLMs actively?
A: Yes. You may represent and promote other MLM affiliation(s) however, if you achieve a Paid As Title of Innovator and above you will be capped as a Visionary for rewards and perks to align with our Crunchi Advocate policies and procedures below. Section 8.13 Complete dedication to Crunchi. When an Advocate achieves a Paid As Title of Innovator and above, this becomes a turning point in their business. In order to be paid past Visionary, the Advocate must choose Crunchi as the only MLM they represent and promote. While they are permitted to keep their other MLM affiliation(s) for personal use, they may no longer lead, recruit for, or promote another party plan, direct selling, or multilevel marketing products and opportunities. Failure to do so will result in their Recognition/ Paid As Title being capped at the Visionary level.
Q: If a leader chooses to accept Visionary earnings as a cap, would that be effective immediately?
A: Yes. They will be capped for the current monthly commission and paid as Visionary. For example, they would be paid as Visionary for August if they reach that title.
Q: What is the protocol and timeline should a leader desire to have their title reinstated in the future?
A: If an Innovator or above leader decides to represent another MLM, their title will be capped at Visionary for a six month period. To remove the cap and return to top leadership, the leader must notify Crunchi within 2 weeks of when they wish to return to top leadership. For example, if a leader chooses to promote another company starting in August, they will be capped at Visionary title from August through January. If they would like to be reinstated, they must request by January 16th for Crunchi to reinstate them to top leadership by February 1st.
Q: When new products launch how do I qualify to receive early access or complimentary products?
A: All Leaders will receive early access to new products. To qualify for the complimentary new products with or without free shipping, you must be paid as an Ambassador or above the month prior. To determine what reward you will receive will be based on your current recognition title. If you are not paid as Ambassador or higher, you will still gain early access.
Q: At any level, if my friend is a representative of another MLM company, am I allowed to include their rep link in my dedicated Crunchi Client Group or Team Page?
A: No. At any level, your dedicated Crunchi Client and Advocate Team Groups must be just that - 100% dedicated to Crunchi as the only MLM you represent/promote.
Q: At any level, am I allowed to include a link to another MLM’s website within my dedicated Advocate Team Group even if I am NOT a distributor?
A: No. At any level, your dedicated Advocate Team Groups must be just that -100% dedicated to Crunchi as the only MLM you represent/promote.
Q: At any level, if my friend is a rep for another MLM and wants to do a LIVE in my dedicated Crunchi Client Group or Team page to promote their brand, is this permitted?
A: No. At any level, your dedicated Crunchi Client and Advocate Team Groups must be just that - 100% dedicated to Crunchi as the only MLM you represent/promote.
Q: What is determined as a “dedicated Crunchi Client or Advocate Team group”?
A: A Client or Advocate group with the sole purpose of promoting your Crunchi Business.
Q: What is considered my dedicated Crunchi network?
A: Any space/group/page that you utilize as the main source of building your Crunchi business and to share freely about Crunchi. This typically refers to closed Client Groups and Advocate Team pages but is not limited to just those if an Advocate uses another platform/method to build their Crunchi network and grow their business.
Q: May I share Crunchi AND another MLM company to which I am registered in my dedicated Crunchi Team page?
A: No. Your dedicated Team Pages (or any networks devoted to the promotion of Crunchi) may not represent another MLM you are registered with or be used to promote another business opportunity or product. This is considered a conflict of interest and a solicitation of your Advocates. (This is at ANY level)
Q: What if I have a social media profile, personal space, public blog, or website that is not dedicated to Crunchi but is used to promote Crunchi, can I use that to promote other MLMs and brands?
A: Yes, however, you must remain compliant with P&P sections 9.1, 9.2, and 9.3.
Q: In section 9.1, it speaks to “poaching”. What does this mean?
A: Cross-recruiting or “poaching” is not permitted. This means you may not directly or indirectly approach any current Advocate or Client with the opportunity to recruit them to another MLM. If they have approached you first, inquiring about the product or opportunity you may share with them.
For example, the following approaches are prohibited:
(Direct) “Hi ___, I just partnered with XYZ Company and think you should check them out.”
(Indirect) “Hi ___, I have made some changes in my routine and feel amazing, can I share more with you?”
Q: Am I allowed to build a team with another MLM while being an Advocate with Crunchi?
A: Yes, however, you must remain compliant with P&P sections 9.1, 9.2, and 9.3.
Q: Am I allowed to host an event for another MLM company if I am NOT registered as a rep for that company?
A: Yes, you may host an event (as a customer) for another MLM (at any level), but you may not solicit your dedicated Crunchi network to participate in this event. This includes (but is not limited to) your Crunchi Client Page, Team Page, or crossline Advocates. Essentially, you are not permitted to behave in activities that intersect with your Crunchi business, which could be considered a solicitation of that dedicated network. If you choose to host an event for a friend of another MLM, you would need to make sure you only open this to your non-Crunchi dedicated spaces. This is the same across the board at any level and is covered under Section 9.5 Conflict of Interest.
Q: If I am registered as a rep for another MLM company (in addition to Crunchi) am I allowed to host an in-person or virtual event that combines both of these products in the same event? For example, “Mom’s Night Out w/ DoTerra & Crunchi”?
A: Based upon P&P section 6.7 you would not be able to cross-promote both brands in the same booth, table, or setting (whether online or in-person) and would need to keep these two businesses completely separate. Additionally, your Crunchi network cannot be used to promote other MLM brands. In the example above, you would need to split these events and make sure your promotion of Crunchi was independent of your promotion of another brand. Sections 9.2 and 9.3 outline this policy in further detail.
Q: Am I allowed to share Crunchi at a trade show or vendor event where other MLM representatives are present and sharing their products?
A: Yes! You would just need to ensure that Crunchi products are displayed apart from those other brands and are on their own table, booth, or setting, abiding by Sections 6.4 & 6.7. Further, pursuant to Section 6.7, Advocates achieving a Paid As Title of Innovator and above are permitted to recommend skincare and makeup products not sold by Crunchi, but they are not permitted to sell or receive commissions on such products.
Q: If I own a brick-and-mortar store, am I allowed to promote Crunchi alongside other MLM brands, as long as they are not intermingled, displayed separately, and abide by P&P section 6 “Selling Crunchi Products”?
A: Yes!
Q: May I share discount/affiliate codes within my Crunchi network/groups as long as they are not an MLM company?
A: Yes!
Q: Why are Crunchi dedicated groups/ pages regulated more strongly than personal pages/blogs/websites?
A: Per our non-solicitation policies, Crunchi spaces/ groups/pages that an Advocate utilizes for the sole promotion of their Crunchi business (in the eyes of the policy) must remain dedicated to Crunchi. This protects this Crunchi dedicated network from being solicited for another direct selling business/ product/service. However, personal pages that are not used to build, grow, or solely promote their Crunchi business cannot be regulated to the same extent. For this reason, different rules apply to these spaces. See P&P Section 9.3 for complete details.
