Would you go to the wine equivalent of a Tupperware party? This is a serious question. When a major wine producer embraces the Tupperware selling model, an at-home wine-buying party just might be in your future.
“It’s the social marketing way of selling wine, friends to friends,” says Jean-Charles Boisset, proprietor of the Boisset Collection, his family’s group of 20-odd wineries in California and France. He started testing the idea about a year and a half ago with his new venture, Boisset Wine Living. Now, based on its success, he’s aiming to expand.
“Our program is like Tupperware’s, but it’s high end,” Boisset said over lunch in New York.
The company’s “wine ambassadors” set up and pour the wine for the in-home tastings. New Yorker Liz Howng, who works in corporate finance, grabs her Boisset Wine Living kit several evenings a month and heads out to pour and talk about Boisset wines for friends of friends at their apartments.
The kit includes Riedel glasses, wine fact sheets and a corkscrew. Because of byzantine U.S. wine regulations, the host orders the tasting package of five or six wines through an ambassador such as Howng, buying one of the eight offered or a custom mix at

Total Life Changes Announces Weight Loss Product Resolution

Total Life Changes set to release your New Year’s resolution
A brand new game changer in weight loss will be released in January 2015 from Total Life Changes. TLC’s exclusive proprietary blend is called Resolution. It flushes fats and toxins from the system and keeps your food cravings away all day.
Unlike the cycles of HCG drops, which recommend little to no cardiovascular exercise or weight lifting, Resolution drops and a two-stage program allows for regular cardio workouts and weight training that will not interfere with your weight loss results.
If you’re looking to lose up to 35 pounds quickly and safely, with little to no change in your daily routine, look to make it happen with TLC’s Resolution drops. When used together with our moniker 1200-Calorie Diet, Resolution supports speedy weight loss, including stubborn belly fat, and reduces the odds of returning weight gain.
TLC’s very own C.O.O. John Licari was one of the first to try samples of the all-new Resolution and the 1200-Calorie Diet Plan:
“I was just a little hesitant to try them because I am an avid runner and I train at least three times a week. I didn’t want anything to interfere with my current regimen. But at

by Tina Williams • • 0 Comments
Congratulations to Travis and Summer Flaherty of Queen Creek, AZ, for advancing to the rank of Diamond Executive in just four months.
Travis and Summer believe many factors have been instrumental in the success of their mynt business. At the top of that list is their inspiring team and their collective commitment to personal development.
“If you want to attract better people in your business, or just in life in general, you have to become more,” they said. “We have learned that the number one way to grow an organization is to grow the people IN that organization.”
Things haven’t always been easy for Travis and Summer. When they were first introduced to the industry nine years ago, they had to borrow the money to get started in the business. They were completely broke and struggling to pay their bills. “Our lowest point came after losing our traditional business,” they said. “We lost everything. It was a very humbling experience.”
Instead of getting overwhelmed with their setbacks, Travis and Summer saw the opportunity before them and went after it. “We continue to have struggles in our business, even today,” they said. “The difference is we have learned that life’s greatest obstacles often turn out

DSA Member Votre Vu Closes Down
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
The following is an email from founder and CEO Harold Zimmerman to the Votre Vu Reps:
Dear Votre Vu Brand Ambassdors,
It is with an extremely heavy heart that I announce that Votre Vu will need to close our doors at the end of this year- 2014.
Even though the value of our products was validated repeatedly by prestigious beauty editors, celebrities, and business authorities, we simply did not gain enough consumer traction to keep our business in operation.
Our sales have been in decline in the past 2 years, and the level of investments made to keep our operations running has reached its limit. Trust me, we have looked every which way to keep this dream alive. It has been my wholehearted focus for the past seven years – and I know all of you and our corporate staff also embraced the Votre Vu vision with the sincerest passion.
I do not view this as a failure, nor should you. We dared to dream. We dared to create something truly unique, and we created quite a stir in doing so. Our brand was given life by YOU, our beloved Brand Ambassadors. \You invoked passion and excitement amongst our consumer base at
