ACN Global Reach Charities Give Over $1Million In A Fiscal Year

 

ACN Global Reach Charities has been recognized by Charlotte Business Journal as one of the largest Charlotte area foundations. Since 2011, ACN Global Reach Charities has provided focused management and fundraising efforts to many of the initiatives started by the ACN Co-Founders. The foundation is honored to be ranked 19th by the publication for their $1,292,750 in donations during 2013.
ACN supports a long and ever-growing list of organizations on a global scale, as well as many organizations in Charlotte and the surrounding areas, with our efforts concentrated on those directly impacting children.  In fact, since ACN relocated their World Headquarters to Concord, NC, they’ve made it their mission to cultivate roots in the Charlotte area and help the community grow by first growing the children and families throughout the community. Today, ACN supports over 50 local organizations and growing.
ACN partnered with Ronald McDonald House Charities on a global scale in 2008, raising funds for houses around the globe at each of their events, totaling well into the millions.  But when ACN discovered Charlotte didn’t have a house, they made it their mission to help change that, making significant contributions locally to open the doors of the Ronald McDonald House of

Global Wealth Trade Africa Summit Attracts 1,200 Consultants

 
Global Wealth Trade is a huge success in Africa – 1,200 people attend the Abuja summit in Nigeria.
Last year we extensively covered how Global Wealth Trade was the first MLM Company to be fully embraced by 26 countries in the Caribbean countries where traditionally the Caribbean is not known to be MLM entrepreneurial.
Ramin Mesgarlou – Founder/CEO stated:
“It was awakening to see 800+ people gather in double Decker stadiums with a dozen dignitaries, top level ministers including Governor General and Prime Ministers attending the official launch of Global Wealth Trade in their countries and give welcome speeches.
Now we see Global Wealth Trade being fully embraced by the African continent led by Nigeria, again not a traditional MLM market.  
INSANE is the highest level of accolade you can receive in GWT and Africa; led by Team Nigeria has been just that –INSANE. Over 1200 people attended GWT’s first major Tour night (business presentation) in Abuja and for a new market that is just INSANE”

Investors Concerned About Recent Events, Avon Hits 52 Week Low

 
Shares of  Avon Products Inc. ( AVP ) have lost much of its momentum and yesterday this New York-based global beauty retailer stock hit a new 52-week low of $12.45. We believe that the recently announced resignation of the company’s Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and Executive Vice President, Kimberly Ross, has made investors cautious about the company’s prospects. The resignation will take effect from Oct 2, 2014.
Ross, who joined Avon nearly three years back, proved to be an able leader as she significantly contributed toward the company’s turnaround. Management remains pleased with her work and believes that the company is well on track for the future.
Ross has been able to make significant progress in improvising Avon’s balance sheet through refinancing activities and cost cutting by slashing jobs and exiting operations in the underperforming markets. Consequently, her resignation has made investors apprehensive about the company’s future performance.
Apart from this, Avon Products remains in troubled waters due to continuous loss of active representatives, declining volume, unfavorable exchange rates and reducing margins in mature markets like North America. This has led to the company’s distressed operating results over the past few quarters. Moreover, weakness in the emerging markets, like China as well as regulatory and cash flow

Visalus’ GJ Reynolds Talks About Leadership

 
GJ Reynolds has been with ViSalus long enough to witness firsthand how everything rises and falls on leadership. Throughout the past 9 years, this Vi 5-Star Ambassador has seen the good and the ugly that can come from leadership, or lack thereof. This insight has enabled GJ along with his wife, Alita, to build a strong team of leaders from the inside out.
Of course, one might think that after almost a decade of being a top industry veteran and a Vi Millionaire who has transformed thousands of lives, GJ would want to take his foot off the entrepreneurial pedal and cruise a bit. But talk to GJ for even a minute, and you’ll discover that he has no intention of standing still. In fact, GJ would tell you he is challenging himself every day, and is actively leading by example to show what it means to truly live and promote the Vi Life—with no wavering, no noise, no excuses.
