Javier Canales — Founder, The Standards Group
With over 17 years leading compliance functions in the MLM industry — including roles as International Director of Compliance and VP of Ethics & Compliance — I've worked directly with more than 20 MLM, Direct Sales, and Affiliate Marketing companies, including several ranked in the Business For Home Top 10. Client identities are kept confidential.
The Standards Group gives growing companies that same caliber of in-house expertise without the cost of a full-time hire. I work directly with leadership teams to identify risk and build policies that hold up, partnering with top MLM attorneys to ensure every recommendation withstands legal scrutiny, and I help companies plan and execute compliant expansion into new international markets.
Beyond advisory work, I also provide hands-on compliance administration — building a compliance function from the ground up or running one end-to-end for an existing team — so clients get a complete infrastructure, not just a set of recommendations.
Every engagement is tailored to your compensation plan, your products, and your field — not a generic template.
We start with a conversation about your business model, compensation plan, and current practices.
A detailed review of your materials, claims, and existing policies against applicable regulations.
A clear, prioritized plan covering what to fix, draft, or update — and why.
Hands-on support putting new policies, disclosures, and materials into place.
Schedule a consultation to discuss your company's compliance needs and how The Standards Group can help.
