RESEARCH ON THE CHEMICALS IN YOUR HOME:
200,000 chemicals are in use commercially today with another 1000 being introduced each year. Only a few of these chemicals, about 7%, are adequately tested to determine their effects to our lives and the life of our environment. What about the other 93% of chemicals that are on the market and in the products that consumers use everyday, most (93%) have never been tested. Toxic chemicals were introduced into our environments 50 years ago, just after World War II. They were originally designed to enhance our lifestyles, now we know many are not enhancing our lives but threatening them.

Powerful Read WORTH your time!

The Price of the Promise–The Power of Network Marketing—Sarah R.
I’ll never forget opening up my emails to find a message from my good friend Jordan who shared with me an article entitled: “The Price of the Promise–The Power of Network Marketing”. This was back in the day–when I was paying bills with change, just starting my career as a network marketing professional.
This article changed my life. It got me through the “no’s”, and helped me push past the ones who “quit” and served as a source of inspiration in my career–and today I’m earning a multi-million dollar per year income in the network marketing profession.
A few years later, I found myself speaking on stage, alongside industry legends like Jordan, sharing my stories, and providing inspiration for the future leaders that are coming up in our profession. I’ll share with you more on that below…
But first–I want to share with you one little article that made a big difference in my life. A true story of of leaders in our profession who worked through the numbers, and found out their own set off odds, and achieved really powerful things in our profession:
http://www.sarahrobbins.com/wp-content/uploads/380887_10100242638871854_1504974194_n-300x200.jpg
A Few Leaders on Sarah’s Personal Team On Her Annual Team Retreat– Pelican Hill Resort in Newport Coast
The Price of the Promise–The Power of Network Marketing
Mark Yarnell, minister in a small town in Texas, was headed for bankruptcy and just about to lose his car and home. He looked for a way out and discovered network marketing. Luckily, he had a wise sponsor.
The sponsor gave Mark “THE PROMISE“. “This business can set you free financially in one to three years.” But he also gave him “THE PRICE” “To succeed, you will have to face and conquer 4 major enemies.”
Mark said, “It’s a deal.”
Mark began by inviting 200 friends over to his house to watch a video. 80 said “No, not interested”
- Mark had encountered ENEMY #1: Rejection.
He thought, “No problem. My sponsor warned me about that. I’ve got120 people still coming over.” Guess what?
- He had just encountered ENEMY #2: Deception.
Mark thought, “No problem. My sponsor warned me about that. I’ve got 70 people who watched the tape.” Guess what? 57 said “Not Interested”.
- He had just encountered ENEMY #3: Apathy.
Undaunted, Mark thought, “No problem. 13 people signed up.” Guess what? 12 of them dropped out of the business shortly thereafter.
- He had just encountered ENEMY #4: Attrition.
Attrition had left Mark with just one serious associate. But to this day, that single distributor earns Mark over $50,000 per month.
Mark Yarnell’s story is NOT Unique!
You may have heard of Bill Britt, one of the most successful distributors in Amway. Some years ago, 20/20 did a feature story on Amway. They spent 19 minutes interviewing whiners and complainers – several distributors who had failed and showed the garages full of products they couldn’t sell. During the last minute of the show, Mr. Britt was interviewed in front of his palatial home. He was asked, “Mr. Britt, this business has obviously worked for you. What’s your secret?”
He replied, “There is no secret. I simply showed the plan to 1200 people. 900 said, ‘No’ and only 300 signed up. Out of those 300, only 85 did anything at all. Out of those 85 only 35 were serious, and out of those 35, 11 made me a millionaire.” Like Mark Yarnell, Bill worked through the numbers.
Jason Boreyko, former co-founder of New Vision, told this story recently. When he was a distributor in Matol, he signed up 50 people. He heard a lot of “No’s” on the way to those 50. Jason took one man, who he knew would be terrific in the business to lunch, told him about the business and the man said “No.” Jason took the man to lunch again the next month and told him the updates. Once again the man said, “No.” Jason sent him some more information and took him to lunch again the next month. And again the man said, “No.” That went on for six months. The seventh month, something had changed for the man, and he said, “Yes.” That man made Jason over one million dollars. Jason also worked through his numbers.
According to Richard Poe in Wave Three while starting Amway, Rich DeVos and Jay Van Andel, America’s eleventh richest people, recruited 500 people. 495 dropped out. The five that didn’t quit built Amway. All $7 billion of Amway’s business was built under those 5 people. Jay and Rich had to work through their numbers. There are many similar stories. Jeff, the top money earner in Mannatech, signed up 27 people his first month.
One might think that he is especially talented at sponsoring. Actually, Jeff will be the first to tell you that he is not talented at all.
In fact, he feels that he did very poorly. To recruit those 27, Jeff talked to 2000 people that first month. And of the 27, the only one who did anything significant with the business was Ray Gebauer, who has more than half of Mannatech in his downline.
Jeff’s word to you is that the numbers never lie. Pick your goal and then get into massive action. If you talk to enough people, you will make it!
I’ve probably talked to thousands of people since I started my business 5 years ago. I’ve had over 100 join me. I have about 30 people working this business at a moderate pace. As of today, I have 10 top leaders in our plan at this time, and of those about 3 people who account for a good majority of my income. What happened to the rest? Some order product, some occasionally promote, and unfortunately some decide the timing isn’t right for them. As with any profession, there is power in working through your odds to find leaders and pace setters It takes a lot of “sifting” until you “strike gold!” You never know what people will do–or who they will lead you to.
I’ve found the same stats and percentages to be pretty similar industry wide.—as it relates to how many you must personally talk to, and sponsor before you strike gold. I was asked on stage at a major industry event last year, with the #1 earner of his company, my friend, Jordan Adler. He brought up several top earners of different companies, with different products and payplans…some of us having a few years experience in the profession, some having over 20 years. He asked us each how many people we’ve sponsored and of those how many account for 80% or more of our income. The results were very similar.
We’d been in the business anywhere between 5-25+ years. We sponsored anywhere between 50-100+ over time. Most of us had 80% of our income coming from anywhere between 1-3 legs, tops!
The major growth of your organization will probably be tied to just 2-3 people too. But you never know how many conversations you’ll have, or how many people will join you before you find them! So get ready to talk it up! The more people you share this with, the better your odds of finding your power partners!
Here’s the lesson:
Your success is directly related to the degree to which you are willing to work to find others like yourself who are committed to succeed. Mark Yarnell’s odds were 1 out of 50. (Jeff’s were really 1 out of 2000.) Would you be willing to go through 200 people to find the 1 who will make you $50,000 a month? Or go through 200 people to become a millionaire? Or hear uncounted “No’s” to sign up 50 people to find a million dollar person? I hope you will. It’s easier when you know the odds up front.
But here’s the catch: You have your own set of odds and you won’t know what they are until AFTER YOU’VE SUCCEEDED. So if you’ve gone through 50 or 100 people and you haven’t found 1 serious person yet, you can either give up and assume the business doesn’t work or recognize that you are working through your own numbers.
Are you willing to find out what your own set of odds is?
That means that you must pay the price for freedom. Remember that the numbers never fail you. Despite where you are in your skill level, your success is assured if you talk to enough people. And as your skill improves, so will your odds.
There is no such thing as luck in this industry. Winning big is a matter of being willing to pay the price.
Are you? Your future is in your hands!
You can SO do this! Now get out there, and work through your numbers today–and ROCK this, Rock Stars!

I loved hearing this last night and wanted to pass it on to all of you! You are in the RIGHT place and these numbers certainly prove how great our company is and how stable they are!! Growing every year in a recession!! LOVE IT!!! What piece of the growth will you have this year?

2. Average product points/order is up .5 product points. This is significant because not only is this an increase in income but more families are converting more of their households. (this equals retention)

3. Commission to product points is guaranteed to be 50%. Melaleuca paid out 52% last year. Average Executive Director income is up $9,370/year. Average Corporate Director income is up $96,141/year.

4. We are still in inflationary and recessionary times. Commodity price index is up between 3% and 15% last year directly affecting manufacturing ingredient costs - this has been seen at all stores. Melaleuca has held prices steady always maintaining and adhering to their founding axiom: Exceptional products at reasonable prices.

FYI's

Sei Bella vs Nerium...a MUST read

Some of you have asked for a comparison of Nerium to Melaleuca’s Luxary Crème. Nerium is a MLM company with anti-aging cream and we have compared the two. WOW! GO MELALEUCA!!!!!!
 
 
Sei Bella Luxury Crème Comparison to NeriumAD Age Defying Treatment
When it comes to dramatic anti-aging creams on the market today, Sei Bella® Luxury Creme Concentrate distinguishes itself above
the competition. Using a third-party laboratory, Sei Bella® Luxury Creme underwent rigorous testing and clinical trials. Using
VISIA™—a multi-spectral imaging and skin surface topography technology—complexion maps were created to measure skin texture,
spots, fine lines, deep lines, wrinkles, pores, evenness, and sagging. This type of analysis provides indisputable, unbiased data rather
than relying on the subjective opinions of participants and/or doctors.
In as little as two weeks, Sei Bella Luxury Creme visibly improved skin in all areas measured, and within 28 days the improvements
were staggering. The results from this clinical testing prove that Sei Bella® Luxury Creme delivers significant improvements in all the
aging areas measured in 28 days or less.
NeriumAD™ Age Defying Treatment has a reputation as a “miracle” cream. It, too, has been clinically tested and shows improvement
in skin aging areas within 30 days. Interesting point of fact, it relies on extracts from the Nerium oleander plant as its primary anti-
aging ingredient. The Nerium oleander plant contains cardiac glycosides, rendering many parts of it poisonous. Glycosides have
severe toxic effects on the body including the heart and other vital organs. Ingesting any type of Nerium oleander extract or the raw
plant itself can cause oleander poisoning and may be fatal.
Comparing clinical results, NeriumAD™ Age Defying Treatment does not provide any advantage over Sei Bella® Luxury Creme and
exposes consumers to dangerous toxic extracts. The chart below reviews every ingredient found in each product, listing the benefits
and advantages of each. You’ll see that Sei Bella Luxury Creme has superior ingredients—not only in quantity but also in quality.

at moisturizing skin and protecting from oxidation as the Sei Bella

A breakthrough in anti-ageing properties. One of the most important YES
biological functions of Hy-aluronic Acid is its capacity to hold more
water than any other natural substance, allowing it unmatched
effectiveness as a moisturizer. It also protects skin and supports
skin cell regeneration.
Aloe vera leaf extract is an afforable moisturizer found in basic,
NO

more effective alternatives. Nerium Plant has a high toxic profile.
Resveratrol made headlines all over the news and media including
YES
60 Minutes, Oprah with Dr Oz, ABC News with Barbara Walters,

Sei Bella Luxury Creme® is the most skin-transforming, antiaging treatment available. It is designed to enhance your skin’s natural
beauty, preserve its texture and tone, and restore its radiant glow. Unlike NeriumAD™ Age-Defying Treatment, Sei Bella Luxury
Creme is designed to target different wrinkles areas for maximum results—it targets the deep lines or wrinkles in the forehead,
sagging and loose skin around the jaw, and wrinkled, crepey skin around the eyes. Luxury Creme uniquely combines two recognized
peptides (Hexapeptide & Tetrapeptide) and powerful antioxidant ingredients (Stable Vitamin C, CoQ10, Resveratrol) proven through
significant testing to be very effective against wrinkles, stimulate collagen, and promote even skin tone. You will not find these
ingredients—or these results—in NeriumAD™ Age-Defying Treatment. Plus Sei Bella® Luxury Creme offers more satisfactory
results without using any unsafe or toxically profiled ingredients.

Melaleuca Product Stories
Over the past few years I’ve witnessed frown lines developing between my eyebrows that give me an angry look. In January I started using the SEI BELLA LUXURY CREME CONCENTRATE each night and I noticed that those unsightly lines have become less prominent. I look a little nicer!-Julie B.-MA
~~
A few months ago, my 88-year old father commented to me that he was suffering some shoulder pain. When I went to visit him a few weeks later, I took some PAIN-A-TRATE to him. He did not have the pain anymore but I left it with him anyway. Well, this past week I talked to my mom (86) and dad and learned that dad had strained his shoulder recently and remembered to use the PAIN-A-TRATE at night. The pain was gone by the next morning. He also has an elbow that took the brunt of a fall many years ago and was pulverized. Only recently has he started to feel pain with it so he again rubbed the PAIN-A-TRATE in and voila- the pain was gone! My mom called me to tell me she had slept in a crooked position the other night that resulted in a stiff neck. You guessed it- PAIN-A-TRATE to the rescue!-Cindy B.-CO
Product Highlight
MELALEUCA’S TOOTH POLISHES
Oral care affects more than just the health of your mouth. A report by the Surgeon General called the mouth, “a mirror of health or disease”, stating that it is “the center of vital tissues and functions that are critical to total health and well-being across the life span”. Numerous studies have backed the Surgeon General’s statement, proving that neglecting the health of your mouth may have dire consequences for the rest of your body.
Bacteria: The Root of the Problem
Plaque. Tarter. Cavities. Periodontal Disease. These terms are probably familiar to anyone who has visited a dentist, but what’s not commonly known is they all share a common cause- bacteria, and more often than not a specific type of bacteria known as S. mutans. S. mutans ferment the sugary foods we eat to produce lactic acid. In the same way that acid rain corrodes, this bacteria-generated acid can literally dissolve tooth enamel through a process known as demineralization.
What Do Typical Products Do About the Problem?
Most toothpastes and other oral health aids use ingredients like fluoride to combat plaque and tartar. While fluoride is effective at strengthening the tooth enamel and helping it to resist demineralization, it does little to fight the bacteria that cause the problem. Some toothpaste manufacturers add an antimicrobial ingredient known as triclosan to fight bacteria. While triclosan is very potent, it takes a shotgun approach to bacteria, killing off beneficial bacteria along with harmful forms. Fortunately, there is a safe, all-natural way to fight bacteria and maintain a healthy mouth- the MELALEUCA DENTAL CARE SYSTEM.
Gentle Cleansing and Bacteria Killing
Melaleuca’s tooth polishes take the natural approach to keeping bacteria in check using a combination of three ingredients with a long history of antimicrobial uses:
Ø Melaleuca Oil: Long recognized for its powerful, natural properties, Melaleuca Oil not only boosts the natural cleansing power of each tooth polish, it also helps target harmful bacteria. In a study conducted in 2003, Melaleuca Oil was tested against 161 isolates of oral bacteria, including S. mutans. After just 30 seconds, Melaleuca Oil caused a decrease in bacterial viability, and after 5 minutes no viable organisms were detected.
Ø Propolis: Propolis is a resinous bee product composed of flavonoids, well-known plant compounds that have antibacterial properties. A study conducted at the University of Rochester Medical Center found that subjects who used propolis experienced a 61.7% reduction in the concentration of dental plaque compared to a placebo.
Ø Myrrh: A large shrub that grows in the Middle East, ancient Greek and Roman physicians used myrrh extensively to treat wounds because of its excellent antimicrobial properties.
OTHER PARTS TO THE MELALEUCA DENTAL CARE SYSTEM
Dental Floss- This extra-strong, waxed material glides easily between teeth without fraying. For extra protection, it’s coated with pure Melaleuca Oil to help interrupt bacteria growth.
Breath-Away Mouth Rinse’s bacteria-fighting formula is charged with T36-C5 melaleuca oil, propolis, and myrrh to deliver a triple blast of freshness, but is alcohol-free. So it is safe for the whole family.
Hot Shot and Cool Shot Breath Spray- A quick blast of cinnamon or mint instantly refreshes your mouth while Melaleuca Oil, propolis, and myrrh attack the bacteria that cause bad breath.
NOTE: DON’T FORGET ABOUT MELALEUCA’S TOOTHBRUSHES. THEY ARE THE PERFECT COMBINATION OF A HARD AND SOFT BRUSH THAT REALLY GETS YOUR TEETH CLEAN.

Awesome Alternatives
Did you know…
You can use Rustic Touch Furniture Polish on your glass stove top to take the grease and grime off?
You can use Rustic Touch Furniture Polish on all your stainless steel appliances to remove fingerprints and repel them from coming back.
A Different Way of Doing Business?
Have you ever wondered why Melaleuca has a minimum shopping order? Even though Melaleuca is a billion dollar company they are competing in the consumable goods marketplace with Proctor and Gamble, Colgate Palmolive, Johnson and Johnson, etc. All of these companies are multi, multibillion dollar companies. They literally own the shelf space in stores, so as a smaller consumable goods company they are almost impossible to compete with.
When Melaleuca opened their doors 27 years ago their mission was to help people get better, safer products in their homes at reasonable prices. Even though their products were what you would normally find in a small, expensive health food store, they wanted to compete price wise with these bigger companies. They knew, in order to survive in the marketplace, they would have to be creative in the way they set up their company.
1. They decided they would cut out the distribution center (the store). Melaleuca ships their products directly from the manufacturing plant to their customer’s door steps.
2. They decided to do no formal (and costly) advertising. Melaleuca wanted to benefit their customers the most, so they decided to pay their customers for advertising for them and doing word-of-mouth referrals.
3. They decided to build their business model around a common marketing term called JIT Manufacturing. JIT stands for “Just in Time” manufacturing. When Melaleuca can count on their customers to shop monthly with them it allows them to put into practice the JIT manufacturing and do three things:
o Buy their expensive, plant-based ingredients in bulk and cut down on the cost
o Project out the inventory they will need for up to three months, which significantly reduces waste and storage space
o Guarantee the freshness of their products to their customers
Melaleuca has figured out that it saves the company 17-21% monthly to manufacture this way. They also save a significant amount since they don’t do any normal advertising or distribution through stores.
With all this in place, Melaleuca is able to compete in the marketplace and still offer their customers some of the most high-end, effective, environmentally-friendly products in the marketplace and offer them at a 30-40% discount off the retail price to their loyal customers. It has become a perfect partnership between the customer and the company.
