Online business magazine Fortune.com has published the next article about Avon:
When beauty giant Coty (coty, +1.67%) made an unsolicited $10.7 billion for Avon Products (avp, +3.14%) in April 2012, the direct seller’s board was adamant shareholders would be better off letting incoming CEO Sheri McCoy fix a very damaged company. It proved to be one of the biggest blunders in M&A history.
Fast forward five years, Avon’s stock market value is down to $1.3 billion and McCoy is on her way out in March, having failed to improve the company by almost any measure. The number of sales representatives, iconically known as ‘Avon Ladies’, has shrunk in all but one of the years of her rein and the declines have continued into 2015.
Avon has racked up about $1.8 billion in losses and last year sold off its North American business to private equity firm Cerberus, a huge blow for a company founded in 1886 in New York when a door-to-door bookseller found that the perfumes he mixed himself were popular with his customers.
Ultimately, McCoy was trying to fix an unimaginable mess at a company with operations all over the world, and proved slow to react to market changes such as the

Starbit Announce An International Legal Counsel Against Fake News
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
According to a Starbit Press Release:
“Another fake news blog was closed, where false news appeared about us”
said Mr Francesco Giampieri – Head of Starbit compliance department.
“We won an other big battle, but the war is going on and this is just the first step”
As everyone knows, fake news – false news is the web phenomenon of our time and an important initiative such as STARBIT can certainly not escape this fashion.
Fake News – False News
They are easy to spread: it’s only needed a blog where to write by hiding behind a pseudonym, faking to be an expert but without having it in facts, inferring a few words that somebody or the company has said or written in a certain situation and create on a scandal. It’s a crushing play that anyone can easily do ….
However, only people who are clearly dissatisfied with their own lives, hiding themselves in anonymity, discharge their frustration on others by spitting out hate with untruth.
The British call them haters = people who hate, that means they have a racist mentality (meaning that they consider us different from themselves and so to fight) and fundamentalist mentality (they will not tolerate anything that is different from

Top Earner Matt Morrow – Wine Goes Network Marketing
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
I met Matt Morrow – a multi million dollar network marketing top earner – at a party in his home in Las Vegas, USA.
There were successful networkers there from a variety of companies, but delightfully it seemed much more like a reunion of great friends than a pitch fest of any kind. Anyone who knows Matt, knows he is all about having fun and making sure that everyone in his presence is doing the same.
There are few people who can say that their full time mlm career spans four decades of life. Matt has been a top earner in quite a few companies in his 28 years full time…he has done it in his 20’s, 30’s, 40’s, and now he is now killing it again in his 50’s.
He has a very unique perspective on this industry. Matt is currently one of the top earners in Direct Cellars, affectionately referred to as “The Wine Deal”. Few people make network marketing look as effortless as Matt does. I asked him to share some of his thoughts on this industry that he loves so much even after almost 30 years…and he agreed to. Enjoy!

On July 21, 2017, during its West Coast Regional Convention in LA, ARIIX, an international opportunity company and – a Triple A classified opportunity by Business For Home – that promotes healthy, toxin-free living, announced the creation of award-winning and patent-pending NATRIIX™, the first all-natural, broad-spectrum preservative of its kind.
NATRIIX was created to preserve the 30+ whole food ingredients contained in Moa™, ARIIX’s nutrient-dense liquid supplement. The ratio of cultured compounds and essential oils in NATRIIX, along with a proprietary blend of herbs, performed beyond expectations during stringent antimicrobial preservative effectiveness testing with results equivalent to synthetic preservatives.
Due to its ingenuity, NATRIIX was awarded the Business Intelligence Group (BIG) Innovation Award on February 7, 2017.
“We didn’t want to continue to use synthetic preservatives that weren’t aligned with the integrity of our company,”
said Deanna Latson, ARIIX Chief Product Officer and Founder. “That’s not how we operate at ARIIX.
Instead, we dedicated two years of research and development to the creation of NATRIIX, and we’re incredibly proud of the recognition it has already received in such a short amount of time.”
NATRIIX is a feat no other company in the direct selling industry, or the liquid supplement industry, has achieved because synthetic preservatives
