ACN
ACN or American Communications Network, Inc. is a company founded in 1992 that offerstelecommunications services to consumers with a MLM backend. Independent representatives are paid commissions for selling the services and recruiting other representatives. The MLM business model has been very successful for many companies in the past, however with the extremely competitive deregulated telecommunications industry, ACN is having to keep their profit margins low to stay competitive so only time will tell if this business model will work over the long term in this field. Low profit margins mean a conservative payout plan and that typically translates into having to build a large downline of representatives under you and getting many end consumer customers to make your residual income from the opportunity worthwhile.
The ACN company started doing business in January of 1993 with 20 reps reselling long distanceservices under the name LCI Communications until 1998 when LCI was purchased by QuestCommunications. ACN’s first year in business they earned 2 million dollars in revenue, by 1998they were earning a little more than 98 million dollars in revenue. Today they are earning in excess of 500 million dollars in revenue and have been endorsed by Donald Trump.
ACN operates with good business ethics and offers a nice line of excellent products for the end consumer including local and long distance telephone service, DSL and dialup internet service, wireless phone service, Broadband telephone or VoIP, and videophones. They offer excellent rates, service, and products and are highly recommended as an alternative to the usual big conglomerates that could care less about you.
The business plan is MLM based and offers representatives roughly 15% to 20% of every dollar spent on products with up to 7% on their downlines purchases. Compared to other MLM companies payout schedules this is relatively low, however ACN has established itself in the market and has offered a compensation plan that will allow them to ensure future growth and stability in a highly competitive and fast paced market.
If you are looking for an alternative to your telecommunications needs, ACN offers a wide variety of products at reasonable rates with great service and just may be the right choice for you. If you are looking for a solid business to get into, consider carefully that ACN is more of a long term business to build but can have solid roots for future growth. If you are looking for
a business that you will earn large commissions in a short period of time with minimal work, ACN may not be for you.
