Possible New Utah Legislation May Affect Utah Based MLM Companies
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
The assistant attorney general in charge of protecting the Utah Division of Consumer Protection from overly curious consumers says he believes in the principle of “innocent until proven guilty.” Which, of course, he should.
But it might come as a surprise to the many other state and local prosecutors across Utah that Assistant A.G. Chè Arguello defines that principle as justifying a state law that keeps confidential all the consumer complaints the division receives, until and unless that agency actually takes some enforcement action against a company.
Were that the usual standard, there would be no public reporting of the names of, or evidence against, anyone accused of murder or theft until after they had been found guilty in court. Wouldn’t want to unfairly besmirch the name of anyone who hadn’t actually been convicted, now would we?
The State Records Committee last week upheld Arguello’s argument and allowed the Consumer Protection Division to continue to sit on any and all complaints lodged against a Provo-based multi-level marketing outfit called Wake Up Now. Because, apparently, state law on the matter is clear.
Which is why the Utah Legislature should change that law, and make such Consumer Protection Division records open to the public.
The matter was raised by a national nonprofit consumer watchdog called Truth in

Forbes Believes MLM Is One Of The Most Significant Solutions For Retirement
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
Robert Laura, a contributor for Forbes.com, has recently written an article for the publication, stating that he believes MLM is one of the most significan solutions for retirement and shares why:
At some point in your life you’ve been pitched a multi-level marketing (MLM), direct selling, or network marketing business opportunity. While the pitch varies from company to company, it basically promises a chance to ditch your 9-5 work schedule, be your own boss, and make lots of money while making new friends in the process.
It all sounds good on paper, yet there is a seemingly endless debate over whether these companies and programs are legitimate business opportunities or not, so I dug in and got the real scoop. As a result, I believe that the entire industry is poised for explosive growth and can be one of the most significant solutions to America’s currentretirement savings crisis.
Initially, that may sound like a bold statement, but it’s not if you understand retirement the way I do. The reality is, making a successful transition into retirement has more to do with psychology than with money… and the same may hold true for multi-level and network marketing.
Don’t get me wrong, money has a role in

Hedi Khezrzadeh – Lessons From ALS Ice Bucket Challenge For Network Marketers
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
Hedi Khezrzadeh from the Middle east is Medical Doctor, Top Earner and Trainer in Network Marketing, is followed by 8,000+ Facebook fans, and shares the lessons that can be learned from the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge for Network Marketers.
Hedi:
It worked because it’s “Referral” marketing, because you ask people who you have influenced to donate or to dump a bucket of ice water on their head.
Seth Godin says, “The ideas that spread, win”. ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) is not the leading cause of death in the world, it’s responsible for 2 out of 100,000 deaths every year and as many as 30,000 Americans have the disease at any given time. Malaria has been responsible for an estimated 627,000 deaths in 2012 and 207 million affected cases. Bill Gates has been advocating the awareness for Malaria for many years and has many videos, but the #ICEBUCKETCHALLENGE has been more effective because the way the information is being spread has been remarkable. Now people deal with an average priority illness as urgent because the way we have been spreading the idea has been nothing short of remarkable.
People want to be seen, they want to LEAD, they want to take part in a movement, they want to be different, that is why a lot of people try to

Anna Woodward Shifts Focus from Music To MLM And Empowers Women To Succeed
by Nicole Dunkley • • 0 Comments
Anna Woodward’s life once centered around music—more precisely, classical flute—leading a private music studio and teaching as an adjunct professor at Seattle Pacific University in the U.S. But professional careers in the arts seldom add up to executive level incomes, so this classical flautist stepped into the world of direct selling eight years ago to earn her financial success. But Woodward found far more.
“I was attracted to the idea of working with others and empowering women with a solid business opportunity that they could use to succeed by giving a consistent part-time effort and by following a simple, duplicatible system for success,” Woodward says.
The way Woodward looks at it, she gives people real choices and long-term opportunities just like the many female direct selling leaders did before her. They too were mothers and wives.
“They led the way for others like myself to build a lifestyle and a career where women can truly have it all! I am grateful for the privilege of mentoring others, changing lives and building relationships with an amazing company like Nerium International,” she says.
As a 5 Star National Marketing Director, Woodward remains impressed with the unprecedented value Nerium offers Brand Partners with the free, Nerium

Willagirls, Network Marketing for Teens and Tweens
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
Known as “Willagirls,” the teens and tweens host Tupperware like get-togethers at home, school or just about anywhere eight- to 13-year-olds hang out. Invites typically are extended via text message, since “nobody uses email anymore,” Ms. Messner says. So far Willagirl, which doesn’t disclose annual sales, has recruited 42 sellers in New York, Miami, New Jersey, California, Colorado and Maryland, among other states.
For Willagirl’s young sales reps, the company offers 25% of total sales, for a potential monthly income of $320 to $3,500, according to a pamphlet sellers distribute at their parties. Party hosts also receive 15% of retail sales from the party in free products, plus one half-price item if party sales exceed $400.
“There are all these hidden costs that are tied to brick-and-mortar retailing,” says Willagirl founder and chief executive Christy Prunier, “and besides, tween girls aren’t going to malls anymore.” The company, based in Riverside, is currently building out software, which by September will allow the girls to host “virtual” parties online, she adds.
Willagirl is one of a handful of startups that in the past few years have turned to business models combining e-commerce and social media with the traditional direct-sales tactics pioneered by Tupperware, Mary Kay and
