BK Boreyko, CEO Vemma, reponds to accusations in the media in the next statement to Vemma Elite members:
“Last year, together we accomplished something only 18 out of the thousands of networking companies in the world did – we GREW by $103 million to finish at $221 million! This marked the biggest, most successful company in my career. It just figures when you’re bigger than ever, you’ll receive more negative attention than ever. I don’t understand why success attracts negativity, but it always has and I guess it always will.
The recent media coverage on Vemma has been disappointing. Our strategy to move to affiliate marketing and improve our business model was designed to make our opportunity more attractive. Well, I learned early on to turn my disappointments into determination. I don’t know what fires you up, but hate towards what we do and who we help is my fuel for the future!
Let’s talk a bit about the media and their view on what we do. Recently, the producers from the Today Show asked for comments on these topics below and our answers were on point. Some of the topics made it into the show, some didn’t. Below I’ve expanded our responses

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

Rene Liaw – GWT Hits $100,000 Per Month
by Nicole Dunkley • • 0 Comments
Global Wealth Trade (GWT) Youngest Millionaire, Rene Liaw reaches $100,000/month income with less than 7000 Luxury Consultants (distributors).
In a recent interview with Rene Liaw we asked him to share a few words with this monumental achievement.
“I owe my life and success to the CEO, Visionary, and Founder of Global Wealth Trade (GWT) Mr. Ramin Mesgarlou. For once in the world of direct selling/MLM, you have a company whose products literally can not be found in any other direct selling company, but more importantly, can not be found in any retail store, designer or luxury mall in the world! And this is what makes the GWT opportunity a TRUE business opportunity that has longevity and stable residual income. It took me only 11 months to reach $20,000/month with less than a 1000 LCs in my team, this is UNREAL. I than fired my boss at Telus and started promoting my GWT VDM FULL TIME. That was in 2009 and I have been earning serious six-figure incomes every year with my GWT VDM since.”

Lawsuit: Nu Skin Paid MLM Compensation To Chinese Distributors
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
Several former Chinese distributors of Nu Skin Enterprises, Inc. claim the marketer of skin care and nutritional supplements authorized sales representatives to earn compensation on their “downline” network in violation of the country’s regulations, according to a consolidated putative class-action complaint that was filed last month in Utah federal court against Nu Skin.
Nu Skin misled shareholders, orchestrating a “massive expansion in China knowing that Nu Skin’s form of multi-level compensation violated many of China’s regulations on direct selling and prohibitions on pyramid schemes,” the lead plaintiff State-Boston Retirement System, a government pension plan, alleged in the 124-page lawsuit filed on June 30.
Plaintiffs in the consolidated complaint have requested certification of a class of shareholders who purchased Nu Skin securities including options between May 4, 2011 and January 17, 2014. The end of the class period roughly coincides with a precipitous decline in Nu Skin’s stock price (NUS: NYSE), following revelations that the Chinese government was investigating its business practices.
Plaintiffs have alleged violations of Section 10(b) of The Exchange Act and Rule 10(b)(5), and Section 20(a) of The Exchange Act.
“We continue to believe the allegations are without merit and intend to defend ourselves vigorously,” Nu Skin spokesperson Kara Schneck said. “Nu
