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!

Zilis, the Pay It Forward Company, is celebrating the Presidential Ambassador promotion of Jenny and Tony Lusby.
At a recent event, hundreds of fellow independent distributors for the company rose to their feet to honor the accomplishment of this dynamic couple.
The achievement was reached in record breaking time, as the Lusby’s have been with Zilis for less than one year. Reaching Presidential demonstrates Jenny and Tony’s dedicated to their team and to spreading the word about the Zilis concept nationwide.
“I have learned so much over the past 13 years in Direct Sales and when making our decision to join a company, we were looking for so much more than just a “great product or a great comp plan”!
We fell in love with the vision that Steven & Angie Thompson have of not only creating a platform similar to Amazon, but also the “Pay it Forward” nutrition program that is feeding malnourished children around the world with every purchase!
We are extremely grateful to be the early pioneers of this incredible company and look forward to taking this company around the world!”

Melaleuca CEO Frank VanderSloot Idaho’s Richest Person With $1.9 Billion
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
According to an article in Forbes:
Idaho might supply a third of America’s potatoes, but you won’t find its richest resident among the state’s 325,000 acres of potato fields, or even in its capital city of Boise. He’s in Idaho Falls (pop. 60,211), running one of the nation’s largest online retail companies from his headquarters four miles from downtown.
Idaho’s wealthiest person, with an estimated net worth of $1.9 billion: Frank VanderSloot, the 68-year-old founder and CEO of Melaleuca, which bills itself as “the wellness company.”
Melaleuca manufactures more than 450 products ranging from vitamins and health supplements to environmentally-friendly household cleaners. It then sells them direct from the factory to more than 1.8 million consumers every month through its online store.
About two-thirds of customers simply buy products for personal use. But Melaleuca also offers commissions to those who want to refer customers of their own. Most just earn a 3-4% commission on goods purchased by people they have directly referred, but it’s possible — depending on how many people you have referred and how active a role you take in the company each month — to earn higher rates and commissions on purchases made by the Melaleuca customers referred to the business by

Avon CEO Sheri McCoy Is Expected To Step Down
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
According to an article in Wall Street Journal:
Sheri McCoy, the CEO of cosmetics company Avon, is reportedly expected to step down.
The Wall Street Journal, citing people familiar with the matter, reports that the 58-year-old chief executive may be retiring. The terms of her potential departure, as well as details about a replacement, are not yet known.
McCoy’s possible departure gave some investors hope, sending shares of the struggling makeup company up roughly 4.6% by the market’s close Wednesday.
The company has struggled with declining sales and a sharp downtick in its stock price in recent years. In May, Avon’s stock price dropped 22% in a single day, falling to $3.62.
That prompted two shareholders — Barington Capital Group LP and NuOrion Partners AG, which together own 3% of the company’s stock — to urge the 131-year-old cosmetics brand to look for a new CEO.
Earlier this week, Avon announced that Miguel Fernandez, a former Herbalife executive, would take over as global president in August — replacing John Higson, who is set to retire in the fall, the Wall Street Journal reported.

Lifebrook Opens For Business In The USA
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
According to a LifeBrook press release the company is open for business:
“Farm to table marketing has arrived in direct selling.
Through Lifebrook’s exclusive relationship with National Aronia Growers, we have access to roughly 85% of all domestic production of Aronia berries. Lifebrook is the first company of its kind to bring 100% Aronia products, using 100% American grown Aronia to direct selling and peer to peer retailing.
Aronia may be the “forgotten fruit,” but Lifebrook plans to change all that.
Think about this; in 2004 Acai was barely known. By 2008 sales were $104M and last year did an estimated $696M, with projections of $2.3B by 2026.
Why does that matter?
Well, for one thing, Aronia is THE most potent superfruit* known to man. Period. The benefits out reach any other berry and it has been garnering national attention with major research Universities and more.
100% American grown, by American families AND through National Aronia Growers, these farmers are guaranteed a market for their berries
100% pure Aronia in our juice, with zero water and never, ever from concentrate
America’s only native superfruit means we do not have to depend on foreign production or importation issues
