"If you sell a remedy, you can win one, 20 or 30 points. The tricky thing is that they change every day and we can not know which are the products that change price.
Previously, for example, a product having a value of 24 thousand dollars would get a commission in 1200, today the same medication get five points is five pesos, "reveló.La leaders denounced the point system that has implemented the company is so cumbersome as above.
