Visalus’ Adam Franklin Shares His Inspiring Story
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
Living in Ona, West Virginia today, Adam Franklin has always been a determined person. At 33 and having sustained severe injuries overseas, he is now a retired veteran.
After serving two terms in Afghanistan and Iraq, and too many airborn jumps, Adam endured reconstructive shoulder surgery, major hip surgery, five ruptured discs in his back, ankle and knee injuries. By 2003, he was in full traction.
When the news came that he’d probably never walk again, Adam didn’t take it well.
“I was given a second chance to live my life to the fullest,” he says. “I had so many friends who weren’t given this chance and will never get to… It’d be doing them a disservice to just give up.”
So Adam pushed himself as hard as he could, day after day. In time, he graduated from wheel chair to a walker. Then from crutches to a cane. By 2006, he was walking again with nothing supporting him but his own two legs.
HE KEPT GOING
Now living a mobile life, Adam was determined to take off the weight he’d put on by being sedentary for so long.
He tried a popular weight-loss platform but found it lacked the supportive community he needed. When he was first introduced

Nu Skin Publishes Average USA Distributor Earnings
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
According to Nu Skin:
In 2013, the Company paid approximately $143,266,000 in commissions to Distributors residing in the United States.
There are two fundamental ways in which a Distributor can earn compensation:
Through retail markups on sales of products purchased at wholesale prices; and
Through commissions (sometimes called bonuses) paid on one’s product sales and the sales of other Distributors in one’s downline sales network. As with any other sales opportunity, the compensation earned by Distributors varies significantly and is based upon the time Distributors devote to the business, etc. The cost to become a Distributor is very low.
People become Distributors for various reasons. Many people become Distributors simply to enjoy the Company’s products at wholesale prices. Some join the business to improve their skills or to experience the management of their own business. Others become Distributors, but for various reasons, never purchase products from the Company.
Consequently, many Distributors never qualify to receive commissions. Generating meaningful compensation as a Distributor requires considerable time, effort, and commitment. This is not a get rich quick program. There are no guarantees of financial success.
The average commission paid to U.S. Active Distributors each month was $176.00, or $2,112.05 on an annualized basis. In 2013, the average monthly

Herbalife Calls Bill Ackman “The Worst Of Wall Street”
by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
Herbalife’s digital media strategy fighting off Bill Ackman’s short campaign appears to include comparing the fund manager to Jordan Belfort-a convicted felon who ran a 90s-era boiler room, wrote a best-selling book and had a movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio made about him.
On July 17, verified Twitter account @HerbalifeTRUTH tweeted a superimposed an image of Ackman on a “Wolf of Wall Street” movie poster calling him the “Worst of Wall Street.”
The Twitter account linked to a press release slamming Pershing Square’s short bet against Herbalife.
“Ultimately, Pershing Square’s campaign is based on propaganda, and we look forward to demonstrating that its assumptions will crumble under serious and independent scrutiny.”
It’s unclear who exactly is behind the @HerbalifeTRUTH Twitter account. It links back to Iamherbalife.com. The two authors listed on the site areHerbalife and Andy Amsler, who works for digital media campaign company Podesta Group.
Ackman is loudly short Herbalife-a multi-level marketer that sells weight loss shakes and nutritional supplements. Ackman believes the company operates as a “pyramid scheme” that targets lower income individuals.
Herbalife has denied and continues to deny Ackman’s accusations.
On Tuesday, Ackman will be giving another one of his presentations on an investigation into how the company operates its nutrition clubs.
“An in-depth analysis and examination of these clubs-which Herbalife claims
