A Welcome Letter to Your New Distributors

Tom "Big Al" Schreiter here:



Did you ever want to write a welcome letter to your new distributors? 

Here is an example to give you some ideas for your letter:

"Most people do network marketing every day. They just don't get paid for it."

Congratulations on joining our network marketing business.

You might not know this, but you have been doing our business for almost your entire life. But, now is your chance to get paid for it.

Network marketing is simply recommending and promoting the things you like to other people.

Ever do that?

You do this activity almost every day. Everyone else does too. Networking is a natural skill that everyone already possesses!

Your personal recommendation is powerful. More powerful than advertising.

Recommending things to others is part of the human experience. We recommend and promote:

  • Our favorite music.
  • Great restaurants.
  • Places to shop.
  • Bargains.
  • Fun places to holiday.
  • Fun things to do.
  • Movies and more.
Yes, you are already a professional recommender and promoter.

So don't change. Just start collecting a bonus check from your new business for doing what you have been doing your entire life.

Now think about it. There are two types of people in the world:

1. Those that recommend and promote for free (makes the world a better place).

2. And those that get a bonus check for what they are already doing.

Most smart people want to be in group #2, collecting an extra check every month. What a great way to pay off bills, have more money, or even ... get rich!

The more people you introduce to our products, the more money you could potentially earn. You might earn thousands, or even tens of thousands of dollars more each month, and leave your day job behind.

Networking, recommending, and promoting = your path to riches.

So, let's review with this little test. Ready?

1. Since you are already networking, recommending and promoting every day, do you want to get paid for it? Or would you rather continue doing it for free?

2. Will the people you know appreciate our products?

3. How many people do you know that would like an extra paycheck every month ... for what they are already doing?

You are going to love our business.

Calcium and Vitamin D Decreases Central Obesity and Enhances Heart Health




At a Glance:

During weight loss, supplementation with calcium and vitamin D may reduce central obesity (visceral fat) which is associated with many degenerative and metabolic diseases. In another study researchers found that supplementing with calcium and vitamin D during weight loss enhances heart health benefits in women with typically low calcium intakes.

Read More About this Research Below:

Many previous studies have indicated that calcium and vitamin D may play a role in the regulation of abdominal fat mass (visceral fat) and enhance heart health benefits of weight loss.

In the first study, researchers analyzed the effect of calcium/vitamin D fortified orange juice on weight loss and reduction in visceral adipose tissue (VAT) in overweight and obese adults.

Two parallel, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials were conducted at the same time with either regular or reduced calorie (lite) orange juice (OJ). There were 171 study subjects randomly assigned to one of two groups.  The trials were conducted over a period of 16 weeks. 

The treatment groups consumed three 8 ounce glasses of OJ (regular or lite) fortified with 350 mg Ca and 100 IU vitamin D per serving, and the control groups consumed either unfortified regular or lite OJ. Measurements of VAT and subcutaneous adipose tissue were performed before and after the trials.

The average weight loss after 16 weeks was 2.45 kg did not differ significantly between groups. In the regular OJ trial, the reduction of VAT was significantly greater in the calcium/vitamin D group than in the control group. In the lite OJ trial, the reduction of VAT was also significantly greater in the calcium/vitamin D group than in the control group.  When the results of the two trials were combined, the difference between the supplemented groups and controls was even more statistically significant.

The findings of the current study suggest that calcium/vitamin D supplementation may contribute to a specific and beneficial reduction of VAT in overweight adults.

In another study, Canadian researchers investigated cardiovascular benefits of long-term calcium supplementation in women with low calcium intake. Healthy, overweight or obese women with a daily calcium intake of less than 800 mg/day were randomly assigned to one of two groups: a group consuming two tablets/day of a calcium + vitamin D supplement (600 mg elemental calcium and 200 IU vitamin D/tablet), or a group consuming placebo.  Both groups completed a 15-week reduced calorie weight-loss program.

Significant decreases in LDL cholesterol levels, as well as the ratios of total to LDL and LDL to HDL were seen the calcium + vitamin D group.  These changes were independent of changes due to fat loss and reduced waist circumference.  A tendency for more beneficial changes in HDL cholesterol, triglycerides, and total cholesterol was also observed in the calcium+D group. 

This was the first study to show that consumption of calcium and vitamin D during weight loss enhances the beneficial effects weight loss on cardiovascular risk factors in overweight women with typically low calcium intake.

Jennifer L Rosenblum et al. Calcium and vitamin D supplementation is associated with decreased abdominal visceral adipose tissue in overweight and obese adults. Am J Clin Nutr January 2012 vol. 95 no. 1 101-108.

USANA Becomes Member Of U.K. Direct Selling Association

News Release


  
SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 26, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- USANA Health Sciences Inc. (NYSE: USNA) announced today it has acquired full membership in the U.K. Direct Selling Association. The DSA represents the interests of businesses engaged in direct sales of consumer goods and is committed to guiding the direct selling industry.

"The membership process required by the U.K. DSA is one of the most challenging vetting processes of any country-specific DSA I have ever encountered," says Kevin McMurray, USANA's deputy general counsel of international markets. "It's not surprising they carry a very high degree of credibility in the direct selling industry."

The U.K. DSA carefully reviews every facet of each direct selling company's business model, including completing a thorough review of the company's business documentation, online ordering process and online marketing presence to ensure every element of the business complies with the U.K. laws and regulations.

USANA currently has DSA membership status in Australia, Canada, Hong Kong, Mexico, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, France and the United States. 

In 2012, USANA became one of 44 members that joined the DSA's Code of Ethics Communication initiative, which ensures that member companies will not make any statements or promises that may mislead either consumers or prospective sales people. "The direct selling business model is sometimes misunderstood," said Dan Macuga, USANA chief communications officer. "Through our participation in the DSA, we can help educate the public about direct selling, while holding ourselves and other multi-level marketing companies accountable to a high operating standard."
