Hard to believe my guess on the MLM side failing was over two years ago.

Looks like the original promoter deleted their profile - probably out of embarassment.

It takes more than just a snazzy pitch line to make a company and a product a success.

No need to worry about Oxygen4Energy any longer, they are still up and running, but they shut down the MLM aspect of the company. You can become an affiliate, but's that it. All those videos, conference calls, marketing tools, and Dave Dubbs rants are totally gone. If oxygen is going to be a success, it won't be because of Oxygen4Energy. At one time, you couldn't go anywhere online without seeing marketing for Oxygen4Energy, they were everywhere. Now, they do like zero marketing.

Greg, I'm not bashing the product, I'm bashing the pitch.

Oxygen4Energy and oxygen in a can is never going to have enough of a consumer market to even be compared with Starbucks in any meaningful sense.

The company launched in 2010? They haven't gained any traction since then.  After their initial typical spike after launch they've been flat or declined, never hitting their March 2011 peak again ( http://www.mlmrankings.com/oxygen4energy/trend.htm )

It is a niche product, and I'm not convinced there is a market for it via MLM or Direct Sales. If it were gaining traction in the market place, there would be an upward trend. There's not.

Your target market would seem to be athletes and party animals looking for a quick hangover cure. I once worked at a medical supply company, we liberally used oxygen straight off the tank for just that purpose ( headache relief ) so I can confirm it does work...but that was pure oxygen.

Oxygen4Energy's canned O2 product isn't 100% pure oxygen. Okay, close enough I guess. 95% right? About 10 bucks a can. 50 shots per can. We had to inhale quite a few hefty lungfulls of pure oxygen just to feel any relief. How much is in a can? It says "50 shots". Define a shot.

So back to my original post. I still stand by my comment.

Worst marketing pitch I've ever heard. Comparing this company to Starbucks is ridiculous. There have been Oxygen bars ( really Oxygen kiosks ) set up in Vegas for many years. If there was a market for an Oxygen bar on every corner, like there's a Starbucks on every corner, it would have already started.

I've never seen one, and I don't expect to. Maybe in crunchy granola ville where people buy into every ridiculous health fad someone pitches them ( like magical magnets and magic water and magic wands that align your molecules and so on ) then yeah, maybe they will have one as a curiousity.

I think the Oxygen4Energy product would be better sold direct to trainers and coaches than trying to sell it to others as a business opportunity. 

When you try to pitch your product like the next Starbucks, you sound like every other network marketing evangelist out there pitching this weeks magic beans.

I know, can you imagine...water in a bottle...a channel just for weather, or oxygen in a can...HOW RIDICULOUS!!

You can go weeks without food - thankfully we have supermarkets

You can go days without water - lucky thing, those indoor faucets

Only minutes without oxygen - call the paramedics!  Oh wait, all I have to do is open my nostrils and my mouth and the entire atmosphere is full of it.

Guess I won't be needing it in a can.

Worst. Product Pitch. Ever.

Don't miss this chance to promote such a unique product.

You can go weeks without food...

Days without water...

but only  Minutes without oxygen!

Greg,

Good afternoon!

I certainly don't stomp on other posts or the 'little guy'.    I only wish you the best of success, especially if you truly are passionate about your product.

Glad you like the photo (and the movie!), we all need to be able to laugh a little.

I do question the market for your product, and you conspicuously didn't address that.  Every product needs *something* to set it apart - it's unique selling proposition.

Having a weight loss pill, or viagra, or whatever that's celebrity or athlete endorsed is great (although meaningless) - but if your product is great for athletes, you're limiting your market to - what? 2% of the population?

Don't take this as criticism or trolling, I truly am interested in your marketing, market, etc.

Although I'm happy with my company, and Yes, i do happen to believe it's better than anyone else! :)

JP

Thanks for the Pic, going to place it on our FB wall. Love that movie.  I also love that Oxygen4Energy  is so unique. that London 2012 Olympic Medal Winners are endorsing it. (Felix Sanchez, Brittney Reese, Kelly Wells)  Appreciate you guys joining my forum and letting me know what kind of people are out here.  Mostly those that believe they and there their companies are better than anyone else. Usually stomp on others posts and attempt to intimidate the little guy.  Sorry it took me a little while to respond, I was having fun promoting my business.  Have a great day and good luck with your businesses, I am just fine with Oxygen4Energy and their HUGE potential.  

Thought you'd like it. 

I understand companies looking to get a more narrow Unique Selling Proposition, but this is too much IMHO.

When he's ready to take on a company with a huge potential, I'll be here!

:)

JP

Wow. I about fell off my chair on that one. Great find Jon.

Even though someone started this thread under "new companies", Oxygen4Energy has been around since 2010 and don't seem to have received much traction.

It's a niche product, not sure who the target market would be. Athletes? Hangover victims? The best thing they can do is appeal to a broad market for new reps.

Thanks.

I'm an MLM Advocate, doing my small part to help the professionalism of the industry. I wish you the best of luck and success in all you do.

But Canned Air?  I seriously can't get Spaceballs out of my head now...

Hi Jon,

Great Question!  We are different from Evolv because it is only OXYGEN in a can, NO WATER.  Portable 4ltr can with 95% oxygen and 5% ambient air.  You should Hydrate and Oxygenate when being physically active. Also perfect for hangover relief too!  Carry your own Oxygen Bar around with you and get rid of Hangover (3 oxygen molecules cancel out 1 alcohol).  

Thank you for your response and let us know if interested.  Have a Blessed Day!

Greg

How's this different than Evolv?

Oxygen4Energy is a new Network Marketing company that markets portable canisters containing 95% pure oxygen enriched air. According to Oxygen4Energy, the product (also named Oxygen4Energy) allows users to flood their body with high amounts of supplemental oxygen at any time. By entering through the lungs, the oxygen enters the bloodstream in seconds and is immediately available to the body. The most popular application and the main focus of the company is sports and fitness. However, the product also works well for hangovers, seniors, mental clarity, stress, and altitude acclimation.

According to company President, Craig Inaba, "Oxygen4Energy is going to be the next bottled water or energy drink type product and the entrepreneurs who get in early with us will be in position to make a financial killing."

The product is manufactured in the USA with certified content and purity. MSRP is $9.95 with substantial discounts for Distributors (up to 50% off MSRP).

Due to shipping restrictions on the product, Distributorships are only available within the continental United States at this time.
