by  •  • 0 Comments

 
Florida-based Video Communication and relationship marketing company Talk Fusion reports that its summer Dream Getaway, held from June 12-16 in Maui, Hawaii was a massive success.
By taking advantage of the company’s World’s First Instant Pay Compensation Plan, independent Associates earned commissions for sharing Talk Fusion’s video communication products with others.
Those that achieved certain rank qualifications during the specified period were awarded with a 5-day, 4-night stay at the beautiful Grand Wailea Resort in Maui.
In celebration of the February 2014 release of Talk Fusion CONNECT, Talk Fusion launched its “Diamonds in Paradise” promotion, which made it even easier for Associates to qualify for the Dream Getaway. The response was incredible as countless Associates from around the world successfully dedicated themselves to achieving the rank of Diamond and qualifying.
Flown in by Talk Fusion from countries including the U.S., Indonesia, Russia, Japan and others, these Associates basked in the luxury of the prestigious Grand Wailea Resort as they gathered for what many have called the company’s best Dream Getaway yet.

Avon To Cut About 600 Jobs

by  •  • 0 Comments

 
Cosmetics maker Avon Products Inc said it would cut about 600 jobs, including in its North America unit, as the company struggles to return to profit.
The direct seller of cosmetics, which has posted losses in five of the past six quarters, had about 36,700 employees, including 4,300 in the United States, at the end of December, according to its latest annual filing.
Avon will take a pretax charge of $45 million-$50 million, of which $40 million is expected to be recorded in the current quarter ending June, the company said in a statement on Monday.
The job cuts and other restructuring efforts are expected to result in annual savings of about $50 million to $55 million, Avon said.
The company is struggling to turn around its fortunes after a host of problems in key markets such as Russia, Latin America and the United States hurt profits.
Avon’s net loss widened to $168.4 million, or 38 cents per share, in the first quarter ended March 31 from $13.7 million, or 3 cents per share, a year earlier.
Sales in North America fell 22 percent in the quarter as its products faced competition from inexpensive beauty items at drugstores or from chains such as Sephora.

The trailer where she lived reeked of bleach on the day police arrived at the property, cops said.
A search of her cell phone suggested Green may have planned the brutal killing, they said.
In the weeks before, she’d Googled whether shooting someone in the head with a .38 caliber would be “lights out or possibly survive” and the phrase “38 gunshot going straight thru person’s head,” the newspaper reported.
Green was charged with murder Tuesday and was being held without bond at the Switzerland County Jail.

Amway Urges India To Release Bill Pinckney

by  •  • 0 Comments

 
Amway India’s CEO Bill Pinckney was arrested on May 26 at Amway’s headquarters in Gurgaon. At the time of this writing, he remains in police custody. This continued detention and harassment must end. Amway is a reputable company with 55 years of operating legally and ethically in more than 100 countries and territories worldwide.
And while the newly elected Union government in New Delhi played no role in this police action, we ask their help with the immediate release of Bill so he can be quickly and safely return to his family. To continue with this investigative retention when we have fully cooperated with all investigations and requests from authorities in India – including Andhra Pradesh – is unnecessary and unreasonable.
Whenever our business model has been questioned, we have shown up to provide answers. We have made every effort to be entirely transparent and forthcoming with authorities. If there is a problem, we want to fix it so we can continue to do business in India.
The underlying issue at hand is the lack of clear direct selling regulations that distinguish legitimate businesses like Amway from dishonest ones.
Additionally, provisions of the Prize Chits and Money Circulation Schemes (Banning) Act seem to be
