Award Winning Drink Company Looking For MLM Home

by  •  • 0 Comments

 
The “WakeUp Post-lunch Waker”® drink was announced the winner of the SupplySide West CPG Editors’ Choice Awards 2014 in the Energy Drink category.
Unlike other energy drinks, “WakeUp Post-lunch Waker” is a patented, safe and clinically tested beverage formulation with no added caffeine, chemicals or any stimulants that can impact heart rate or blood pressure. WakeUp drink is not a typical energy drink; rather it opens a revolutionary new product category, scientifically proven to overcome fatigue after lunchtime (known as “Post-Lunch Dip Syndrome”) embedded in everyone’s biological clock.

“The out-of-the box thinking displayed by the companies on the short list in each category made selecting just one winner a challenge for our editorial team,” saidHeather Granato, vice president, content, in Informa’s Health & Nutrition Network. “We’re excited to celebrate their innovation and market vision as CPG industry leaders.”

“After we won the ‘Best Functional Drink’ award last year in Europe, we consider the CPG Editors’ Choice Award to be our ‘admission ticket’ to the US beverage market,” says Eli Faraggi, CEO of Inno-Bev and founder of “WakeUp post-lunch waker.”
“Consumer awareness of an inner biological clock, and growing recognition of Post-Lunch Dip Syndrome as part of it, has increased dramatically, especially in fast-paced economies. WakeUp is uniquely positioned

“Work From Home Family” Shares Their Dream At Vísi

by  •  • 0 Comments

 
Shawn and Emily Stoik have a mission: help build families through togetherness and time freedom.  They also have a new partner: Vísi. The couple joined the marketer of whole-body vitality products earlier this month and achieved the prestigious rank of Arctic 4-Star in their first week.
Shawn and Emily are proven business leaders: for the past several years, they have led a team spanning several countries with many benefitting from life-enhancing incomes to free products. Although the Stoiks have consistently earned a six-figure income themselves, their primary motivation is helping other families. Shawn’s guiding principle is that people don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. “We strongly believe in helping that next person,” he says.
“We chose Vísi for the people,” Emily says. “We have a dear friend who’s been a part of Vísi for a year and we’ve watched his business grow. He’s a person of integrity and hard work and said the company matched those values. We knew we had to take a closer look.” After meeting the company’s executive team and learning more about the products, Emily says, “Vísi felt like home.”
Home is a central theme for the Stoiks, who met online, married

Vemma Affiliates’ Inspiring Film Named Best Feature

by  •  • 0 Comments

 
“Hoovey,” an inspirational film set to release in January 2015, captures the true story of Vemma Affiliates Jeff and Ruth Elliott (portrayed by Patrick Warburton and Lauren Holly) and their family as they work their way through tragedy.
The film was selected out of more than 100 entries as Best Feature Film at the October 10–12 Sunscreen West Film Festival, supported by The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
When promising high school basketball player Eric “Hoovey” Elliott suffers a brain tumor, the Elliott family must join forces to overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles to triumph in the face of adversity. The movie is the story of Hoovey’s miraculous comeback after the potentially fatal illness threatened everything.

“Everyone at some point in their life is going to go through something; it’s inevitable,” explains author Jeff Elliott, whose self-published book, Rebounding from Death’s Door, was the inspiration for the screenplay.
“You can’t control many things that might happen to you, but you can control your attitude. That’s a choice you get to make.”

The Elliotts describe their home-based Vemma affiliate business as a catalyst for the family’s emotional and financial recovery. The company is featured in the movie during a reenactment of the speech Ruth Elliott gave at

Herbalife Will Be Exonerated After FTC Probe

by  •  • 0 Comments

 
Herbalife Ltd. (HLF), the nutrition-product maker facing allegations that it runs a pyramid scheme, expects to be cleared of wrongdoing when regulators complete an investigation of the company.

“We anticipate at the end of the day we will be exonerated,” Chief Financial Officer John Desimone said in an interview. “We will wait to say anything more until the investigation is complete.”

The U.S. Federal Trade Commission is probing the Los Angeles-based maker of weight-loss shakes and nutritional supplements following accusations by billionaire hedge-fund manager Bill Ackmanthat the company misleads distributors, misrepresents sales figures and sells a commodity product at inflated prices. The Federal Bureau of Investigation also opened an investigation and several states are looking into complaints.
“We will respect the integrity of the investigations,” Desimone said. “We will fully cooperate and we have complete faith in our members and our business model.”
With a $1 billion bet against Herbalife, Ackman’s Pershing Square Capital Management LP is trying to profit from a drop in the shares. He’s been campaigning to shut down the company since December 2012, saying it exploits distributors rather than selling products to consumers.

Ackman’s latest salvo came yesterday. Christine Richard, a Pershing-hired researcher who first brought Herbalife to Ackman’s attention, posted
