“What an incredible journey of FREEDOM this has been! Just a few short years ago I, like most people, was living a quiet life of mediocrity and desperation, only to arrive safely at my grave. Most people die at age 25, they just don’t end up being buried until around age 85. They go to work, go to sleep, go to work, go to sleep, go to work go to sleep . . ., and never end up accomplishing much, helping many people, or leaving any sort of lasting legacy. In less than a few hundred years their name is erased from history, leaving no real imprint on human existence. I didn’t want that. I wanted something bigger and better. ‘Just good enough’ wasn’t going to cut it anymore.
You know what makes me sick to my stomach? AVERAGE! It’s the best of the worst and the worst of the best. I wanted to DO more, BE more, ACHIEVE more and HELP more people. I wanted nothing to do with the ‘corporate pyramid’ or the ‘rat race.’ It’s a broken economic system that simply doesn’t work and which is relatively new, historically speaking. I knew that I was designed for something

It Works! Global Opens $10 Million HQ – Sales Revenue Up To $456 Million
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
A former multi-story retail center on the bank of the Manatee River has a new life as the headquarters for a health and beauty company that is projecting $1 billion in annual sales.
It Works! Global, a direct marketer of health supplements, skin care products and body shaping aids, debuted its $10 million headquarters building in a public grand opening. The company remodeled the former Riverside Plaza on Riverside Dr., converting the former mall space into an airy, 50,000-square-foot creative business space.
The company, founded in Michigan in 2001, moved to Bradenton in 2011.
It Works! leased offices on State Road 64, but began looking for more space when the company’s growth called for a larger headquarters. It bought the Riverside Plaza building in December 2012 for $3.125 million. It Works! employees started moving from the old building in May.
“I thought that building would last us at least 10 years,” said It Works! CEO Mark Pentecost during a ribbon-cutting ceremony. “We’ve been going through tremendous growth.”
It Works! currently employs 86 people full time. The new headquarters, which is designed to accommodate up to 150 employees, is the center of a business that sells its products through 90,000 independent distributors in 18 countries. The

How do you build a multimillion dollar business from giving? mynt Purple Diamond Rob Sperry has found the way.
Giving back has become a healthy addiction for new mynt Purple Diamond Rob Sperry. Sperry, who became mynt’s first Blue Diamond just last month, explains, “The value of being a giver rather than a taker in life has transformed our business from a standard network marketing company to a culture of young enthusiastic markets who are making a difference in the industry.

“The movemynt really is about people getting together all over the country with an excuse to have some fun and make a difference. The biggest lesson I have learned so far was from a recent mynt event we had with team members from all over North America.

Toward the end of recognizing these 16 individuals, I realized that each one of

Direct Selling Statistics USA – Reps Increased To 16.8 Million
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
The Direct Selling Organization has published interesting statistics about the growth of the USA Direct Selling Sales Force.
Number of People Involved in Direct Selling in the U.S.
The size of the direct selling sales force increased 5.7% to 16.8 million in 2013, a record high.
The industry experienced a surge of new direct selling independent representatives at the height of the recession.
Due to normal attrition and the fact that some people join the industry for the short term, the slight reduction in force was expected in 2010 and 2011. The size of the industry’s sales force grew 1.9% in 2012 and is continuing to rise through 2013.
The percentage of households estimated to have a direct sales person as a member is the same as in 2012 at 13.8% of U.S. households.
Estimated Total Direct Retail Sales
The 2013 estimated retail sales of USD 32.67 billion for the direct selling channel were up 3.3% in the United States, from USD 31.63 billion in 2012.
The U.S. market increase of 3.3% in 2013 continued an upward trend that began after 2009 and brought the industry to a record high.
Direct sales grew 0.8% in 2010, 4.6% in 2011 and 5.9% in 2012.
