Tupperware Struggled Greatly In 2014

 
For Tupperware Brands Corporation, 2014 has almost been the inverse of 2013.
The stock started 2013 near $62 levels and continued to move higher to end the year at over $90, whereas in 2014 the stock started to decline from the $90 plus levels and currently trades near $64 levels. With 90 percent of its revenues coming from overseas and dollar riding high vs. other currencies, the future also doesn’t seem pleasant for the company.
Tupperware Chairman and CEO, Rick Goings, was on CNBC to discuss how strong dollar is impacting the company and the measures taken by the company to limit its impact.

“Its peaks and valleys with regard to it. We have done regression analysis, we have had a market basket of about 45 countries and when you put it all together, yep, this year, it’s a headache, but sometimes you’re a windshield and sometimes you’re the bug and over a decade it’s been pretty neutral,” Goings said.

Emerging markets that Tupperware is focusing on are showing signs of weakness. When Goings was asked the outlook for his company keeping this in perspective, he replied, “Well, I think we’ve got enough currents that are the wind at our back in these emerging markets. The big

Stormy Wellington Reaches Regional Director with Total Life Changes

 
In just five weeks, Stormy Wellington, renowned Internet marketer, has reached the rank of Regional Director with Total Life Changes.
Stormy was introduced to Total Life Changes by Kenny & Chante Lloyd (Global Directors in TLC from Houston, Texas) and joined TLC on October 30, 2014.
Stormy has quickly made her way up the ranks. “I believe in moving fast… the speed of implementation creates the speed of your success. I first launched my business through a series of conference calls. Then I planned and implemented Iaso™ Tea parties, where I created a SkinnTea movement,” Stormy explains.
Her steps to success include teaching her members to “know the number in order to hit the number.” Stormy’s first short-term goal was to get binary team qualified and then sell the heck out of Iaso™ Tea and NRG to customers.
“This is all part of the Retail to Recruit System, inviting others to experience the results from these amazing products. Getting them on these products as customers first and then sharing the business opportunity to help them financially. I want to help as many people as possible to reach the Director Rank and earn an extra $2,000 a month and beyond,” adds Stormy.

Visalus’ Damien Canerot On Building A Legacy

 
Damien Canerot was first introduced to Nick Sarnicola and Blake Mallen when he was a student in college. That’s also when he attended his first National event—almost a decade ago.
Years of loyal perseverance have gotten him to where he is today—a thriving 1-Star Ambassador worth over $500K, living in California’s Bay Area. Here are 14 of our favorite Damien Canerot quotes… dare we say many of which are words to live by.
1. It’s been special to see the evolution of ViSalus over the years, from very modest beginnings to everything we’ve now established as a Challenge culture.
2. I made the decision to go for it. I admit to achieving slower success as a first-time Promoter, but I had the opportunity to be mentored and surrounded by aspiring entrepreneurs.
3. I’ve faced challenges and success as a Promoter over the last decade. It’s been both rewarding and humbling at the same time.
4. The Vi-Life has been rewarding to say the least. I’ve traveled to many new cities across the country, taken cruises, and had countless celebrations.
5. Vi provides a big gift people don’t always talk about: an atmosphere for personal growth and development.
6. My advice for anyone looking to achieve success in any area of life is to be clear about what you

Amway Defends Direct Selling, Touts ‘Made In The USA’

 
Amway surpassed Avon Products in 2012 to become the world’s largest direct-selling company, thanks to a steady, drama-free international expansion over the years into key markets like China, a bigger focus on nutrition products, which are less prone to sales fluctuations than beauty products, and the ability to attract and keep sales representatives (whom Amway calls ABOs, for ‘Amway Business Owners,’ and who now number 3 million.)
In 2013, its sales rose 4.4% to $11.8 billion, helped by growth in China, its biggest market, and one where Avon’s business has collapsed since a big bribery scandal hit that company a few years ago. (Avon’s business is struggling in almost every key market.)
As a privately owned company, Amway has been spared the drama that has slammed some of its other direct-selling peers that faced regulatory and investor scrutiny: personal care products maker Nu Skin Enterprises  NUS -3.63% was fined earlier this year by Chinese authorities over its product claims, while nutrition company Herbalife  HLF -0.10%  is in the throes of a battle with activist billionaire investor Bill Ackman, who claims it is operating an illegal pyramid scheme.
Amway Chairman Steve Van Andel, the son of one of the company co-founders, recently spoke with Fortune about criticisms of the direct-selling business model, its China success,
