In todays world we live in a very toxic environment with food standards far lower than 100 years ago. With many people already taking suppliments in todays world, we need a company we can trust to get results and to put what they say in their products and with a million dollar guarantee for athletes should they test positive for a prohibited substance by the WADA while on a usana programme you can trust these guys! Online Pharmaceutical-Grade Nutritional Supplements.
Buy USANA Online, USANA Health Sciences store, USANA suppliments, USANA weight loss products, and USANA Sense' skin care range. Founded in 1992, USANA Health Sciences has been rated among the fastest growing companies traded on the NASDAQ for the last five years. USANA Health Sciences formulates exceptional, science-based nutritional and personal-care products. However, inferior manufacturing can destroy even the greatest product formulations. For this reason, USANA manufactures its own nutritional supplements, and voluntarily meets pharmaceutical Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP). Pharmaceutical GMP standards are far more stringent than the food GMP requirements set by the U.S. government for supplements.
To adhere to the exacting standards of pharmaceutical GMP, and to ensure the quality of every product manufactured, USANA inspects all raw ingredients before they are mixed, tests the product during manufacturing, and performs a final analysis before any product is sent to the customer. USANA's Quality Assurance team keeps track of every detail, from careful testing and evaluation of raw materials, to meticulous product shipping and storage. Visitors to USANA's corporate headquarters can take a self-guided tour to see USANA's manufacturing process firsthand. Need to know more about the company?

Health & Freedom
When they were introduced to USANA, Ruby Directors Jim & Dian Fawver were hopeful but skeptical. After 30 years in executive management with IBM, they didn't see how something could be so good. But they also didn't want to "slave away" at a job for the rest of their lives either. That skepticism turned into excitement as they realized how much fun they could have while improving their health, meeting new and wonderful people, and making an income commensurate or better than their prior careers. They are passionate about wanting others to achieve their joy.

Jetnetting Connection
Heshie Segal --Jetnetting Connection [mailto:HeshieSegal@JetNettingConnection.com]
I read the note, “My ideal job….” and hope by sharing this, many of you will see yourselves (as I see myself when I sometimes grasped for straws and not quality) and, what happens if you go after a dead-end lead and its waste of time - unless you turn it around and learn a lesson in the process. I started to write this, and then a few sentences later, it took on a life of its own.
The original note: My ideal work at home job is typing documents, inputting data, taking orders over the phone, contacting people who have expressed an interest in purchasing items, answering calls from clients/customers, and jobs similar to those mentioned. I want to get paid based on production. I do not want to have to have to put up money up front to start the business, I don't want to keep inventory, mail items, nor solicit buyers for products. Now, do you have anything that fits my taste?
My Response to the above note: (I took this thought by thought)
Dear “My ideal job…” Prospect,
I acknowledge you for having such a clear picture of what you want in a "job". I am responding to your "do you have anything that fits my taste?" and then you can make up your mind if you want to proceed. The next step would be to see if we can work together. What I have found in this business is that I get to choose my partners. I am sure you can appreciate this. Our company finds that partnership and team work are very important to our ongoing success.
We do occasionally type documents. The kind of document depends on the situation. Perhaps it is in response to a team member request, a clarification document or a strategy developing for expanding our team in a creative way.
We do input data. It is mostly when we are enrolling preferred customers who want to enjoy optimum health or people who want to join our business for time and/or financial freedom. It sounds as if you would enjoy doing this kind of input.
We contact people who respond to information on our websites. They are interested in making a purchase. They simply sign on through the website and we contact them to see how they are doing. We thus follow up. I call this a win-win and I know you can understand how lucrative this can be and it sounds like you would be just the person to follow up because you care.
We do get paid on production. We talk to people, we produce and we get paid. From what I have read in your description, you want to be paid on production. Perhaps, then the following would be of interest to you. We are rated as the #1 compensation plan. Usana does not do the rating….there would be no integrity in that. I have to chuckle here since we hear from so many companies who claim to be #1.
Most people who say they do not want to put money up front to start a business are ones who have always held a job. They have not yet ventured out as entrepreneurs. They are building someone else's dream and have not yet seen the value of being their own boss in the truest sense of the word. Entrepreneurs take risks to attain their freedom and what they want in life. I personally love the idea that I get paid for my efforts and I can create the income I want. There is no limit other than my own energy and belief system. If I want more, I do more and/or I look for partners who share my vision and we work together.
I surely understand your desire to not stock inventory. That is one of the reasons I am with Usana. I have been with other companies that have required me to stock inventory and others who make earnings depend your ability to earn money depending on volume you produce thus forcing stockpiling to stay afloat. That was burdensome, to say the least. It sounds like you want to be an associate with our as opposed to becoming a distributor who has the opportunity to retail and carry inventory. It does not sound like you own a gym or a salon or anything of that sort, or am I wrong on that?
You don't want to do mailing? I can understand that one. It's a personal choice. Some people do put things in the mail to bring in new business. It is not what I do and again that is my choice. I prefer to carry information with me wherever I go so if someone shows interest, I can hand them something to read or perhaps something they can take home to see or hear. Then there are those days when I just do not want to leave the house and I expand my business by sending out mail and being on the phone . Well, I have devised a system for that. If that is of interest to you, then we can talk. It sounds like we have a lot of the same feelings so perhaps a good chat on the phone will help us both to see if there is a match.
You did mention one last thing - that you did not want to solicit buyers for products. Once again, I have to chuckle. It took my wonderful fiancée 10 months to bring me on board to do Usana as a business. He was very gentle and patient while I came up with every excuse in the book. He persisted. He even dragged me to the Usana convention where I sat with my arms folded. On the last day of the convention, when I got the science behind the product and this fabulous company, the people I could help with its products, and the science and integrity of the founder, Dr. Wentz was this remarkable world renowned scientist dedicated to helping mankind, I turned to him and said, “I can do this. I know so many people I can help. BUT I AM NOT PUSHING THOSE PILLS!!!” He looked at me and very quietly said, "This is not about pushing pills. This is about helping people to have optimum health. You care so much about people. Now you have another way to do it."
Mr../Ms Prospect, I have taken longer than I intended to respond to your requirements and yet I did it because once you “get” the brilliance of this company, its founder, its products, its compensation plan, its reputation in the hottest growing industry, its special teams, you will understand that it is the best choice you can possibly make. Would l like to have you join my team? I am not sure. We would have to talk and see if it works for us both. You see, as your sponsor, I would be dedicated to your success. I work with people who want to make a difference in their own lives and the lives of others. I work with people who are committed to success. I work with people who are positive. Does that describe you?
At your option we can discuss this further to mutually decide if there is a fit. If this is not something that works for you, good luck with your journey. As for me, I will continue my quest for helping people with their health, their wealth creation, with their personal development.
Sincerely,
Usana Associate’s name
Additional thoughts from Heshie Segal:
There are so many people out there who could benefit from Usana - products, business and both. I suggest caution with this person…they sound more like the assistant type than a go-getter. I must admit, I tend to be one of those people who likes to save the world and especially those who say no - I want to understand why and how I can help them. So, when I go about my Usana business these days, I recognize I have to stay far away from people who will drain my energy. Once I enroll people, I am theirs and if they do not perform and I stay committed to them, it means my other enrollees get less of me. Not a good scenario.
I have only been with Usana for two years. I have been moderately successful in having become a Ruby Director. As my business gets stronger and stronger, I choose to work only with people who are positive and don't expect me to build their businesses for them. Do I still go after people who said “no” a year ago? You bet. And it is only because I like them and feel they have just not gotten it . . . yet. Each one of them knows when I stop talking about Usana, they are in trouble because I have given up on them (and I don't give up easily). If they don't care about their health, then I cannot make them.
I do not work cold leads. Perhaps this is why I had such a strong response to the note from the person who wanted to see if there was “anything to suit his or her taste”. I am a face to face person. I talk to everyone who moves. If they do not smile or are open, I move on. If I got a note like this from someone, I would either let it go and move on, or I would respond as I did above.
Usana is a gift and we do not have to go after people who put forth requirements such as the person above, unless we are looking for an assistant. It appears as if this person simply wants a job without responsibility. These are my thoughts:
This person:
Is not a self-starter
Is someone who is simply content to build someone else's dream or income.
Does not have start up money because of a current life style or belief system (and if
he/she doesn’t make changes it will always be this way)
Is not yet ready to buy because of not seeing the value
Is looking for a way to say no.
Is content with the way life is, or in is happy living in his/her comfort zone
Has low self-esteem, is very young or lacks of experience.
Has self-limiting beliefs.
Has no idea what is it is to be an entrepreneur.
Could make a great assistant (wants an office job in the house), etc.
In closing, I would say this person has given us a gift. They have provided us with a learning experience. If we can answer these questions, statements, objections or challenges, we can overcome other areas more easily. It is wonderful practice.
Heshie Segal, Ruby Director

Five Rules to Follow When Prospecting in Your Warm Market
Five Rules to Follow When Prospecting in Your Warm Market
By Tim Sales
Forget for a second that you’re in network marketing. What if you were starting any other kind of business like a retail store, a salon, or a construction company. Where would you get your customers? Your employees? How about business partners? Where would you find them?
In one or more of those categories a friend, acquaintance or family member might be the right fit, maybe not. Maybe they know someone who is the right fit. Somehow it always works itself back to an acquaintance, a recommendation or a referral. This is called your "warm market."
Life seems to be a series of experiences brought on by connections to other people. Your job as a Networker is to connect the bridges together and move past the disinterested in a professional and honest way, without "pushing." Most businesses begin this way.
Your warm market can be one of the greatest resources to your business. Dealing with family and friends can be a blessing or a curse, but if you want your family and friends to continue to respect you, give you referrals, be your customer, and possibly say "yes" to your presentation, I recommend you follow these five rules to working with your warm market:
Rule #1 – Hold your tongue. Don’t ever insult someone for his or her decision not to buy your products or participate with you in your business. Don’t tell someone they’re stupid for not doing business with you, even if it is the way you "talk to your brother." It’s unprofessional and out of place.
Rule #2 – Be wise. "No" rarely means never. That same brother in three weeks or three years could lose his job. If you’ve made a fool out of yourself, not only will he not do the business, he will tell all of your friends to avoid you. All of this because "you told him" how stupid he was. That’s not wise.
Rule #3 – Deal with it. For 10 years I’ve dealt with objections, concerns, past failures, bad experiences, etc, which have all taught me how to successfully handle these issues. The good news is that all of these objections are resolved and discussed in the "Brilliant Compensation" DVD presentation. Just as an experienced dentist knows that treating teeth is the easy part and the hard part is dealing with the patient’s "baggage"… like the time the "other" dentist stuck a six-foot needle in their gum when they were 14 years old. "Dealing" with these issues is what "wins" the patient. Once the trust is established you’ve got them for life or until you decide to stop servicing their needs.
Rule #4 – Yes or No. Some prospects just take one conversation to be interested and some prospects take 10 conversations. (Nine of those conversations resulted in a "No" answer even though the reason for the "No" was never stated.) If you take the thought process as being that either the prospect says "Yes" or "No," then you’ll miss the art of communication and networking. Suppose your company has 20 products. If your prospect says "No", find out what they are saying "No" to. Are they saying "No" to all 20 products? Are they saying "No" to "I don’t want to diversify my income?", or to "I don’t know anyone who needs or wants any of your 20 products?" That’s a lot to say "No" to. I recommend that you find out exactly what your prospects are truly saying "No" to, then deal with that issue.
Rule #5 – Don’t be a bug. Do not ever "bug" family and friends about your company or products. Sometimes Networkers get extremely focused, which is good, and it should never be suppressed. Focus is what creates success. Just be disciplined as to what and who deserves that focus. If it’s a friend or family member who clearly isn’t interested, quit wasting time there and get in front of people who do want this.
And there you have it – five rules to follow when working with your friends and family.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By Tim Sales
Forget for a second that you’re in network marketing. What if you were starting any other kind of business like a retail store, a salon, or a construction company. Where would you get your customers? Your employees? How about business partners? Where would you find them?
In one or more of those categories a friend, acquaintance or family member might be the right fit, maybe not. Maybe they know someone who is the right fit. Somehow it always works itself back to an acquaintance, a recommendation or a referral. This is called your "warm market."
Life seems to be a series of experiences brought on by connections to other people. Your job as a Networker is to connect the bridges together and move past the disinterested in a professional and honest way, without "pushing." Most businesses begin this way.
Your warm market can be one of the greatest resources to your business. Dealing with family and friends can be a blessing or a curse, but if you want your family and friends to continue to respect you, give you referrals, be your customer, and possibly say "yes" to your presentation, I recommend you follow these five rules to working with your warm market:
Rule #1 – Hold your tongue. Don’t ever insult someone for his or her decision not to buy your products or participate with you in your business. Don’t tell someone they’re stupid for not doing business with you, even if it is the way you "talk to your brother." It’s unprofessional and out of place.
Rule #2 – Be wise. "No" rarely means never. That same brother in three weeks or three years could lose his job. If you’ve made a fool out of yourself, not only will he not do the business, he will tell all of your friends to avoid you. All of this because "you told him" how stupid he was. That’s not wise.
Rule #3 – Deal with it. For 10 years I’ve dealt with objections, concerns, past failures, bad experiences, etc, which have all taught me how to successfully handle these issues. The good news is that all of these objections are resolved and discussed in the "Brilliant Compensation" DVD presentation. Just as an experienced dentist knows that treating teeth is the easy part and the hard part is dealing with the patient’s "baggage"… like the time the "other" dentist stuck a six-foot needle in their gum when they were 14 years old. "Dealing" with these issues is what "wins" the patient. Once the trust is established you’ve got them for life or until you decide to stop servicing their needs.
Rule #4 – Yes or No. Some prospects just take one conversation to be interested and some prospects take 10 conversations. (Nine of those conversations resulted in a "No" answer even though the reason for the "No" was never stated.) If you take the thought process as being that either the prospect says "Yes" or "No," then you’ll miss the art of communication and networking. Suppose your company has 20 products. If your prospect says "No", find out what they are saying "No" to. Are they saying "No" to all 20 products? Are they saying "No" to "I don’t want to diversify my income?", or to "I don’t know anyone who needs or wants any of your 20 products?" That’s a lot to say "No" to. I recommend that you find out exactly what your prospects are truly saying "No" to, then deal with that issue.
Rule #5 – Don’t be a bug. Do not ever "bug" family and friends about your company or products. Sometimes Networkers get extremely focused, which is good, and it should never be suppressed. Focus is what creates success. Just be disciplined as to what and who deserves that focus.

USANA Family:
None of us, regardless of our successes or stature, is immune from human frailties. Unfortunately, Robert Allen knows this all too well. Robert Allen has been struggling recently from a detached retina and has already undergone several surgeries to repair the damage, leaving permanent losses in his vision each time. Unfortunately, he is scheduled for yet another surgery tomorrow and we want to wish him the best and send our prayers for a speedy recovery.
If you too would like to wish him well or share a personal story of strength to lift Bob’s spirits during his recovery, please email him at GetWellBob@ewitraining.com. He’d be delighted to hear success stories, words of encouragement and your personal stories of overcoming adversity, both in your professional and personal lives.
“I have learned two lessons in my life: first, there are no sufficient literary, psychological, or historical answers to human tragedy, only moral ones. Second, just as despair can come to one another only from other human beings, hope, too, can be given to one only by other human beings.” -Elie Wiesel
Robert has already overcome debilitating financial setbacks, survived a horrific car accident and recovered well from several eye surgeries. We are confident he will overcome this most recent challenge with as much dignity as ever.
“The world is full of suffering, it is also full of overcoming it. Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired, and success achieved.” –Helen Keller

Let’s help CHF reach their year-end goals
Let’s help CHF reach their year-end goals
Dear USANA Leaders:
This year, a generous donation was given to Children’s Hunger Fund that allowed CHF to open a Midwest regional distribution center in Chicago. This same donor has come forward again and offered a matching grant of $250,000. This means if CHF can raise the other $250,000 by the end of the year, then an additional $250,000 will be given to us for use in our domestic and international programs.
You can play a major part in helping CHF hit their target. In fact, USANA President Dave Wentz has already generously donated $10,000 to assist us in our fundraising goal. Donating is easy. Log on to USANAtoday and add item #899 (Founder’s Challenge) to your Autoship. Or, call Order Express at 1-888-950-9595 to make a donation and be sure to mention that you’d like the donation to go to the Founder’s Challenge.
Help us double the impact this holiday season for children in the U.S. and around the world by assisting in meeting this challenge. As always, your donations are tax-deductible.
We’d like to thank USANA for its generous help and wish you and your family the best this holiday season.
Sincerely,
Dave Phillips
Founder, Children’s Hunger Fund

Infant and Toddler Nutrition
Infant and Toddler Nutrition
Food provides the energy and nutrients a baby or toddler needs to be healthy. For a baby, breast milk has all the necessary vitamins and minerals. Infant formulas imitate breast milk. For children younger than 2, up to 50 percent of calories should come from fat. Whole milk is a good source of fat after age 1. You can switch to low-fat milk after age 2 or 3.
Some other things to watch for:
Make sure your child gets enough iron
Toddlers between 1 and 3 need 500 milligrams of calcium each day
Dietary fiber is important after age 3 because it might prevent diseases later on
Don't feed your baby eggs, citrus fruits and juices, cow's milk or honey until after his or her first birthday
Don't feed your child seafood, peanuts or tree nuts before age 2 or 3

Food provides the energy and nutrients a baby or toddler needs to be healthy. For a baby, breast milk has all the necessary vitamins and minerals. Infant formulas imitate breast milk. For children younger than 2, up to 50 percent of calories should come from fat. Whole milk is a good source of fat after age 1. You can switch to low-fat milk after age 2 or 3.
Some other things to watch for:
Make sure your child gets enough iron
Toddlers between 1 and 3 need 500 milligrams of calcium each day
Dietary fiber is important after age 3 because it might prevent diseases later on
Don't feed your baby eggs, citrus fruits and juices, cow's milk or honey until after his or her first birthday
Don't feed your child seafood, peanuts or tree nuts before age 2 or 3
