LOVE

AMOR

I worked at the Post Office for 20 years. I was a single parent and like most parents I wanted to give my son the best. I worked 6 days a week, 10 hours a day, every holiday. I was introduced to network marketing in 1980. Time and financial freedom are something I truly wanted.

Trabajé en la oficina postal por más de 20 años. Soy madre soltera y como la mayoría de los padres, quería darle a mi hijo lo mejor. Trabajaba 6 días a la semana, 10 horas al día, cada día festivo. Ingresé en el mundo del multinivel en 1980, tiempo y libertad financiera era lo que yo realmente quería.

Several years ago I thought I had finally made it. I was a part of a network marketing company. I gave them my all. I had reached the very top rank in the company and thought this was it! About the same time I got married and thought it just couldn’t get any better. Unfortunately, everything got extremely worse. Within what seemed like days the company I trusted and worked so hard for, for a couple of years snatched the rug right from under me because of a disagreement with another top leader. Accusations were made and without having any opportunity to defend myself all my income was taken away in an instant. To top that, I woke up in a nightmare of a marriage that I had to leave quickly.

I found myself in a whirlwind. I could not think. I was for the first time in my life so devastated I no longer wanted to live. A very dear friend took me in and gave me safe refuge for a couple of years. I lived in one room after having lived in my own 4 bedroom house before my marriage. It was difficult to even get out of bed. I was in a deep depression.

Años atrás pensé que había logrado mi sueño. Fui parte de una compañía de Multinivel, me dediqué completamente a ellos. Logré el rango más alto en la compañía y pensé que eso era mi límite, además al mismo tiempo me casé y realmente llegué a pensar que mí vida no podía ser mejor. Desafortunadamente, todo comenzó a empeorar. Los buenos días en la compañía a la que le había dado tanto, terminaron. Me botaron sin darme explicaciones, todo por un desacuerdo con otro líder. Me acusaron y sin darme la oportunidad para defenderme, me quitaron todo el dinero que había obtenido con varios años de trabajo, en un instante me quedé sin nada, aparte mi matrimonio se había convertido en una pesadilla que sabía que debía terminar lo más pronto posible.

Me encontraba en un torbellino. No podía ver claro, no podía pensar, me sentía infeliz, por primera vez en mi vida estaba devastada y no quería vivir. Una buena amiga me ayudó y me dio refugio por varios años. Vivía en un cuartito, después de haber vivido en una casa de 4 recámaras. Me era difícil levantarme de la cama, estaba sumergida en una profunda depresión.

I make more money in a month with Ardyss than I ever made working all those hours at the Post Office...”

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord. “Plans to prosper and not to harm you, to give you a hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11...”

HOPE

May 2008, I went from living in the wilderness to crossing over into my promise land. In just 5 months with Ardyss International I went from absolutely nothing to getting my own place, truly being able to afford the vehicle I had been blessed with just months before and no longer wondering what I could afford. I make more money in a month with Ardyss than I ever made working all those hours at the Post Office.

ESPERANZA En Mayo del 2008, pasé de vivir en la incertidumbre a vivir en la tierra prometida. No tenía nada, y en sólo 5 meses con Ardyss International, estaba disfrutando de la tierra de los sueños. Pude adquirir mi propia casa, mi auto, hice más dinero en un mes que en todas esas horas trabajando en el correo. Realmente estuve muy mal, pero gracias a Dios, a mi hijo y al maravilloso equipo de Ardyss International, pude salir adelante.

LOSS

PÉRDIDA

We are Platinum Presidents, Kenny Lloyd and Chante Trimmer, out of Houston, Texas and what has happened to us in five short months is simply a Miracle.

Somos Kenny Lloyd y Chante Trimmer, Presidentes Platino de Houston Texas y lo que nos ha sucedido en los últimos cinco meses, es prácticamente un milagro.

Six months ago we were on the verge of losing everything we had except our drive to survive. Life was tough, I was a Mortgage Broker and Chante worked as a Ticket Agent with a major airline.

Hace seis meses estábamos al borde de perderlo todo, sólo teníamos nuestro coche para sobrevivir. Fueron momentos muy difíciles, yo era Agente Hipotecario y Chante trabajaba como Agente de Boletos con una aerolínea muy importante.

I witnessed an industry I flourished in financially for 15 years, crumble before my eyes.

HOPE I had no idea what I was going to do to replace our income or even half of it. A few days before Christmas 2008, we did not have enough money to buy our children anything and we had to tell them. This is one of the hardest things a parent can do. It was then when we found Ardyss; we took the first step and bought our Power Pack, and when we got our first check of $1,200 dls. We immediately went to the store and bought the gifts we could not buy before, and we finally had the Christmas our family deserved. We thank God everyday for this awesome opportunity. Since January 2009, we have

partnered up with over 4,000 wonderful people across the country, promoted over 20 Presidents and have earned over $200,000.00 in personal income... Thank you Ardyss, you have been such a blessing to us and our Team!

Por 15 años, presencié y fui parte de una industria en la que prosperé financieramente pero también frente a mis ojos ésta se vino abajo.

ESPERANZA No sabía como íbamos a salir adelante, cómo reemplazaría mi ingreso o tan siquiera la mitad de este. Días antes de la navidad del 2008, no teníamos dinero para comprarles nada a nuestros hijos, y explicárselo fue una de las situaciones más difíciles que como padres hemos pasado, fue entonces cuando Ardyss apareció, seguimos el primer paso y compramos nuestro paquete Power Pack con el cual obtuvimos nuestro primer cheque de $1,200 dls. inmediatamente fuimos a comprar regalos y finalmente pudimos dar a nuestra familia, la navidad que merecían. Diariamente damos gracias a Dios por darnos ésta grandiosa oportunidad.

Desde Enero del 2009, hemos creado un equipo de más de 4000 maravillosas personas alrededor del país, hemos promovido más de 20 Presidentes y hemos logrado más de 200,000 USD en ingresos personales. Gracias Ardyss, has sido una enorme bendición ara nosotros y nuestro equipo.

I was Daddy’s girl. No dollies, roller skates or doll houses for me. When Daddy played his toys were drugs, guns and women. So I was fascinated with the boys that were like my daddy, a little dangerous could teach me the game and could love me. I loved the game and it taught me hard hits, hard decisions. I’m royalty in a hustle; all hail the Duchess- the Duchess of Miami.

As my little nephew’s death right before my eyes and being near dead myself when I was shot in the face. The bullet is still there, acting as a constant reminder of the life I lead before and my permanent desire to keep going...”

A women searching for sincere love and her true self. I give an account of my life of being one of the most highly-sought after drug girls on the streets of Miami. Maynard’s story unfolds from a prison cell in a small Texas county after she’s arrested for trafficking 40 Kilograms of pure cocaine. I was a stripper, a come up queen, and the lady of some of Miami’s most notorious drug lords.

HOPE Before Arydss International, my life was literally was going nowhere and that was depressing. After living the life I’ve lived I didn’t know how I going to survive without risking my freedom. But thank God for Stormy Wellington and Nicola Jackson for sharing this life changing opportunity with me. Ardyss has truly changed my life.

The finances that I’ve acquired with Ardyss has a system to live a debt free life and has allowed me to be a more confidant woman just knowing that I can take care of not only my children but other children as well.

FAITH

The bonus structure and direct sales let me know that I can plan my future and dream big cause with Arydss dreams do come true. And do you want to know how I did so well? First of all I put God first, and then I believe in the products and know they would make people feel better and add to their finances so families can find their way thru these trying times. So at this point in my life I have found purpose.

My success with Ardyss extends and it expands, I have made investments in other areas, today am owner of my own beauty parlor.

Yo era la niña de papá, nunca tuve muñecas, ni un par de patines, al jugar con mi padre sus juguetes eran drogas, armas y mujeres. Por eso, siempre busqué hombres que fueran como él, un tanto peligrosos, que me enseñaran las reglas del juego, pero al mismo tiempo pudieran amarme. Adoraba el peligro y dentro de él viví cosas muy fuertes.Soy de la Realeza del bajo mundo, soy la duquesa de las balas e insultos, soy la Duquesa de Miami. Soy una mujer en busca de su verdadera identidad y amor sincero. Fui una de las drogadictas más buscadas en las calles de Miami. Mi vida ha tenido los más excéntricos escenarios, como aquella pequeña prisión en Texas donde fui arrestada por traficar 40 kilogramos de cocaína pura. Fui desnudista, y mujer de algunos de los Traficantes más reconocidos de Miami.

ESPERANZA Antes de Ardyss International, mi vida no tenía rumbo ni sentido, no sabía qué hacer y eso era deprimente. Después de haber vivido todo, no tenía idea de como iba a sobrevivir sin arriesgar mi libertad. Afortunadamente Stormy Wellington y Nicola Jackson me compartieron esta oportunidad para cambiar mi vida y realmente me ha transformado en todos los aspectos. Las finanzas en Ardyss tienen un sistema de ingresos para vivir libre de deudas de por vida y además me han permitido ser una mujer más segura que sabe que puede cuidar y brindarles lo mejor no sólo a sus hijos, sino también a otros niños.

La estructura de los bonos y las ventas directas me hicieron saber que yo podía planear mi futuro y soñar en grande porque con Ardyss los sueños se hacen realidad. ¿Y quieres sabes como lo hice? Puse a Dios primero, después creí en los productos, porque se que estos harán que las personas se sientan mejor y que muchas familias mejores su situación económica. Así es que en este punto de mi vida, ya encontré mi propósito en la vida.

I was practically a child and I was already living an extremely wild life, doing everything it took to survive. Because of my irresponsible acts, I can say I touched the boundaries between good and evil. Many times I was about to ruin my life for good, to waste it away. I was involved in a world of crime and I did not know how to escape. ...”

in Power Start, Bonuses & commissions. FAMILY Hello, my name is Tiffany Williams and I am 21 years old. Before I begin to tell you about me, I would like to give honor and glory to my Creator, Lord, and Savior Jesus Christ. Because without him, I’m nothing, but through Him, I am everything. I would like to thank Ardyss International for providing me with the opportunity to continue my mission of helping my family. Before Ardyss was introduced to me by my wonderful aunt, Stormy Wellington, I lived a fast life. I did whatever it took to survive. Some of the decisions I had to make growing up left me clueless with lack of direction or future goals. I was raised by a single mother with four children, in which I did whatever it took to provide support for my mom and siblings. Life was very difficult growing up; however, I have overcome many of the trials and tribulations thanks to prayer, faith, and family.

FAITH Ardyss International has given me an incredible lifestyle that has allowed me to touch and encourage others to know there is still hope. I realize that Ardyss is a ministry that has awaken my entrepreneurial spirit and obtain all the wonderful gifts that life has to offer. It feels so good knowing that I can use my hands to transform the lives of men and women.

It took a crazy life, towards which outside necessary to be able to obtain what wanted, although in this way it saw me involved in the delinquency.

Ardyss has allowed me to travel to cities across the country that I’ve never dreamed of visiting. I’ve met so many people that see the passion and glow that Ardyss has given me. They are always impressed by my motivation and driven spirit at such a young age. My friends and family are so proud to see me more focused thanks to Ardyss International. I would like to thank the Diaz de Leon family so much for the support and wonderful products.

FAMILIA Hola, mi nombre es Tiffany Williams y tengo 21 años de edad. Antes de comenzar a hablar de mí, me gustaría agradecer a mi Creador, Señor y Salvador, Jesucristo. Porque sin él, no soy nada, pero con él, lo soy todo. Gracias a Ardyss International por darme la oportunidad de continuar con la misión de ayudar a mi familia. Antes de que mi maravillosa tía, Stormy Wellington me presentara Ardyss, vivía una vida desenfrenada, hacía lo que fuera para sobrevivir. Muchas de las decisiones que tuve que tomar, las decidí sin dirección, sin tener la menor idea de cómo me afectarían en el futuro. Fui criada por una madre soltera, con 4 hijos, yo tenía que hacer lo que fuera para apoyar a mi mamá y hermanos.

Ardyss International me ha dado un estilo de vida increíble, que me ha permitido acercarme a otros y tocar sus corazones, para hacerles ver que todavía hay esperanza. Yo he comprendido que Ardyss es una herramienta que ha despertado mi espíritu de empresaria, y gracias a ésta compañía he obtenido todos los maravillosos dones que la vida ofrece. Se siente tan bien, saber que puedo usar mis manos para transformar la vida de hombres y mujeres. Gracias a Ardyss he podido viajar a ciudades que nunca pensé visitar. He conocido a mucha gente que ve la pasión y el brillo que este negocio me ha inyectado, les impresiona la gran motivación y espíritu que tengo a pesar de mi edad. Gracias Familia Díaz de León, por la oportunidad y los maravillosos productos. Una cita con Ardyss, realmente cambió mi vida.

My sister called me about a business opportunity in late December, a week later, on January 5th, 2009, I received a call that my job assignment would end in 30 days. I began to worry about my possible lack of income, but I decided that it must be a sign from God, and I stood on my faith.

En Octubre de 2008, me mudé de la casa de mis sueños debido a la inestabilidad de la economía, y a los altos pagos de la hipoteca. Vi una oportunidad de incrementar sustancialmente mis ingresos, cambiando de compañías y me mudé a Lakeland, Florida.

In January I began working the business and my sales soared. In addition to the profit from the sales, I received a bonus check of $120. In February I began a massive effort that resulted in the recruitment of 18 people in a 30 day period.

En Diciembre del año pasado, mi hermana me habló de una oportunidad de negocios, una semana después recibí una llamada para avisarme que mi empleo terminaría en 30 días. Estaba realmente preocupada por perder mis ingresos, pero pensé que era una señal de Dios y me mantuve con fé. En Enero comencé a trabajar en el negocio y mis ventas se dispararon, además recibí un bono por $120 dls. Para Febrero hice un gran esfuerzo que dio como resultado el ingreso a la compañía de 18 personas en un periodo de 30 días.

“During the time when I lost everything, I tried to survive with my job as a stylist but I could barely cover my own expenses only, so I had to take grandma to a nursing home.” 17


...I began a massive effort that resulted in the recruitment of 18 people in a 30 day period. Ardyss has provided me with a stable income...”

COMMITMENT

COMPROMISO

My next three check amounts were unbelievable; they were approximately $2000, $6000 and $11,000. As a result of my increased income, I am on my way to becoming debt free. My commitment to building a thriving, viable team will enable me to move back into my home, comfortably afford my mortgage, and to care for my 90 year old grandmother. I was able to accomplish this level of performance and reach the rank of President in a 3 month period.

Mis siguientes 3 cheques fueron de aproximadamente $2000, $6000 y $ 11,000 USD. Gracias a estos ingresos estoy a punto de pagar todas mis deudas, tengo el compromiso de construir un equipo próspero que me permita recuperar y volver a mi hogar, con el que pueda pagar mi hipoteca y sobre todo cuidar a mi abuela de 90 años. Estuve dispuesta a lograr este nivel y alcancé en rango de Presidente en tan sólo 3 meses.

During these unstable times, Ardyss has provided me with a stable income. My confidence and recruiting abilities have grown exponentially. The opportunity provided by Ardyss was a solution that helped me make it through these tough times, and this opportunity enabled me to help my family.

En estos tiempos de inestabilidad, Ardyss me ha permitido tener estabilidad económica. Mi confianza y mis habilidades para reclutar han crecido exponencialmente. La oportunidad que Ardyss me otorgó fue la solución para poder salir adelante en estos momentos de crisis, pero lo más importante es que ahora puedo ayudar a mi familia.

FAITH It is only by Gods Grace that we are here. We are truly grateful & thankful. This journey has been an unbelievable one. Surviving Hurricane Katrina, one of the most severe devastation of our time. To surviving breast cancer at the tender age of 25. At one point it seemed like so many blows were coming left to right. Praying for strength to make it through,never giving up, and always believing that there had to be better days. Through it all we kept fighting and we kept believing and we kept dreaming.

When introduced to Ardyss international by a friend Sharlott Langford it was truly a life changing mark. Its only a dream come true to achieve such great rewards for such little time and efforts.

“It was a very difficult time since it was about me overcoming cancer. In addition, our budget was very limited and I couldn’t provide my daughter with the necessary to live well, and the place where we lived was not what I wanted for us.”

We Almost did not recognize this amazing blessing that layed before us. We jumped in this business like our lives depended on it, because it did. Opportunity only comes around once in a life time so you must recognize it and take advantage of it. I shared this opportunity with every one I knew and people I didn’t know. We were determined to succeed..

CHANGE Ardyss has continued to amaze us and exhilarate us with its phenomenal class and awesome integrity. It has by far already exceeded my expectations and that’s not easy to do. With “Products that do what they say they do” we can help to change and motivate people from the inside out. I am wowed to say that I have since Dec. 12 2008 quadrupled my professional income as a hair stylist of 11 years in just 4 short months with Ardyss International. This opportunity is for us all. Lets change lives and build legacies. We thank God, Ardyss International and our Team! We are Family! 20

Es sólo por la gracia de Dios que estamos aquí. Haber sido testigo y afectada del huracán Katrina, una de las devastaciones más severas en la historia, sobrevivir al cáncer de mama a la edad de 25 años. De repente parecía que todo se derrumbaba y que lo peor aún estaba por venir, siempre estuvimos orando porque Dios no enviara la fuerza suficiente para no dejarnos caer y tener fe en que vendrían mejores días. A pesar de la adversidad siempre peleamos y seguimos creyendo firmemente en nuestros sueños.

Cuando conocimos Ardyss International, a través de una amiga Sharlott Langford este realmente fue un verdadero cambio para nuestras vidas. Es un sueño hecho realidad lograr tantas recompensas en tan poco tiempo. No sabíamos de tantas grandiosas bendiciones hasta que ingresamos en este maravilloso negocio, ahora nuestras vidas dependen de él. La oportunidad tocó nuestras puertas en el momento preciso y supimos reconocerlo, valorarlo pero sobre todo aprovecharlo. Comparto esta oportunidad de vida con todas las personas que conozco y las que no conozco. Estamos destinados para triunfar.

CAMBIO Ardyss continúa asombrándonos, motivándonos con su fenomal clase y asombrosa integridad, la empresa ha superado mis expectativas y es raro que eso suceda conmigo. Con productos que hacen lo que dicen que hacen, podemos ayudar a cambiar y motivar a las personas por dentro y por fuera.

A ntonio Díaz de León

One day I had lost my job overnight. It felt like the entire world was crumbling on me, as if it was over for me. I had a wife and two sons to support. I can still remember getting home that day. The sadness in my heart was overwhelming... Sadly labeled by some as “an old man waiting to retired,” I knew it was going to be very hard for me to get a good job again...” 36


Cincuenta años, la llamada edad dorada. Muchos consideran llegar a las 5 décadas, el inicio del declive de la existencia, nada más alejado de la verdad. En lo que si estoy totalmente de acuerdo, es que ésta, es la EDAD DE ORO, por la riqueza en conocimiento, experiencia y sabiduría que hacen de una persona de 50 años, alguien con la fortaleza y el arrojo que se necesita para ser un empresario exitoso y generador de fortuna. A los 50 años controlamos mejor nuestras emociones, somos mentalmente maduros, más analíticos, sabemos abordar de manera inteligente los obstáculos, concentrándonos en la búsqueda de las soluciones. Fifty years old; the golden years. Many would think completing this fifth decade is the beginning of the end of our existence; nothing further from the truth. What I do agree with is that this is truly the golden age because of the great wealth of knowledge, experience, and wisdom that can turn a 50-year-old person into someone who has all the strength and boldness to become a successful, wealthgenerating entrepreneur. At 50, we are able to better control our emotions. We are mentally more mature, more analytic, and we can deal with our issues in a smarter way, focusing on finding solutions. By the time of my first 50th birthday, I was experiencing very difficult times. I had worked as a Federal customs officer in Mexico for more than 25 years. Nevertheless, one day, out of the thin air, they just let me go; I had lost my job overnight. It felt like the entire world was crumbing on me, as if it was over for me.

Cuando llegue a mis primeros 50 años de vida, pasé por momentos muy difíciles. Por más de 25 años me desempeñé como Funcionario Federal en Administración Aduanal en México. Un día inesperadamente me dieron las gracias, de la noche a la mañana me quedé sin empleo, sentí que el mundo se me venia encima, parecía que todo estaba acabado.

Tenía una esposa y dos hijos que mantener y recuerdo muy bien que llegué a mi casa con una profunda tristeza. Sin experiencia en el sector privado y tristemente considerado por muchos, un viejo en su etapa de retiro, yo sabía que me iba a ser muy difícil conseguir un buen trabajo.

I had a wife and two sons to support. I can still remember getting home that day. The sadness in my heart was overwhelming. With no experience whatsoever in the private sector and sadly labeled by some as “an old man waiting to retire,” I knew it was going to be very hard for me to get a good job again.

Those were tough, instable times, but thanks to my faith and enthusiasm –which I never lost-, my wife’s support, and my sons’ love, we overcame adversity together, as a family. We implemented what today is the Network Marketing concept as we started a multilevel system in our company.

37


My first recruit was my wife and later my sons, who back then were only children. This eventually derived in what today is known as THE GREAT ARDYSS FAMILY. Thanks to God’s infinite love, we began our entrepreneurial story on October 8, 1990 in the Mexican city of Guadalajara, Jalisco.

Today, when I look around me, I can see with great pride and satisfaction the great company we created and, most importantly, its ongoing, daily growth, always working hard and sharing and preserving the love and unity of our family, a motto that has always been with us and became the cornerstone of our company. To all my peers and friends on their way to turning fifty, I would say that today is just the beginning; it is a new dawn rising for us. Let’s keep building dreams, transforming lives, creating, and bringing physical and financial wellness to millions of families. To each one of you who has given us all your dedication and heart, I thank you for making my dream, our dream, your dreams, come true. See you on my next 50th birthday. Fueron momentos muy duros, de inestabilidad, pero gracias a mi fe y al entusiasmo el cuál nunca perdí, al apoyo de mi esposa y al amor de mis hijos, juntos como familia, pudimos salir adelante. Implementamos lo que hoy en día es el concepto de Mercadeo en Redes, pusimos en marcha un sistema de Multinivel en nuestra empresa. A la primera que recluté fue a mi mujer y posteriormente a mis hijos, que en ese entonces eran sólo unos niños, nosotros conformamos la primera red de la compañía, de la cual se ha generado lo que conocemos actualmente como LA GRAN FAMILIA ARDYSS. Gracias a la infinita bendición de Dios, el 8 de Octubre de 1990, nos constituimos como empresarios teniendo como sede la ciudad de Guadalajara, Jalisco.

“Today, I can see with great pride and satisfaction the great company we created and, most importantly, its ongoing, daily growth, always working hard and sharing and preserving the love and unity of our family...”

Hoy en día, mirando a mi alrededor, veo con gran orgullo y satisfacción, la gran empresa que hemos construido y lo más importante es que diariamente seguimos creciendo, trabajando siempre fuerte, compartiendo y preservando el amor y la unión de la familia, lema que nos ha acompañado desde el principio y es el pilar, y principal filosofía de nuestra empresa. A todos mis compañeros y amigos que están llegando a sus cincuentas, les digo que hoy apenas es el comienzo, se inicia un nuevo amanecer para todos, sigamos juntos construyendo sueños, transformando vidas, creando y brindando a millones de familias, bienestar físico y económico. A cada uno de ustedes que nos han entregado su esfuerzo y su corazón, gracias por hacer posible mi sueño, nuestro sueño, tú sueño. Nos vemos en mis segundos cincuenta.

I started doing Ardyss in January of 2009 and I no longer have to worry about paying bills. My first check in February was $854, my second was $8,100, my third was $30,600, my fourth was $46,600 and it keeps on going up....”

My name is Juanita Craft and I am a Platinum President with Ardyss International. I am a single parent of 2 college students and we live in Decatur, Georgia. I have worked as an Aerospace Engineer for 29 years and do Ardyss part time.

Before Ardyss, even though I have a “good” job, I struggled quite a bit to make ends meet. My income was never enough. I started doing Ardyss in January of 2009 and I no longer have to worry about paying bills. My first check in February was $854, my second was $8,100, my third was $30,600, my fourth was $46,600 and it keeps on going up. On my team in May, 7 Presidents were promoted. It is amazing to me how with Ardyss, so many lives of people that I care about have changed. Ardyss has also changed the lives of my entire family. In May, my daughter, Sierra, and my cousin, Robin, were promoted to President, my sister was promoted to Diamond President, and my former husband was promoted to Platinum President. Ardyss is truly a family affair. Thank God for Ardyss!

Soy Juanita Craft, Presidente Platino en Ardyss International y en 5 meses he ganado más de $ 141,667 dólares. Soy madre soltera de dos estudiantes y juntos vivimos en Decatur, Georgia. He trabajado como Ingeniera Espacial por más de 29 años y medio tiempo para Ardyss.

Antes de conocer ésta empresa, yo pensaba que tenía un “buen empleo”, luché demasiado para que se pagara bien, pero mis ingresos nunca fueron suficientes. Comencé en Ardyss en Enero del 2009 y a partir de ahí no tuve que preocuparme más de pagar mis deudas. Mi primer cheque fue de $854 UDS, el segundo de $8,100 USD, el tercero de $30,600 y el cuarto fue de $46.600 USD y siguen aumentando. El pasado mes de mayo en mi equipo, 7 Presidentes fueron promovidos. Me sorprende, como con Ardyss la vida de muchas personas han cambiado. Ahora disfruto de mi vida y se que mi futuro y la vida de mis hijos será premiada con cosas maravillosas. Ardyss también ha cambiado la vida de mi familia. Ardyss es un asunto familiar. Gracias Dios. 41

No matter where you are or where you’ ve been, you can start over again and I can’t think of a better place to start than Ardyss International...” I have been through many ups and downs as an entrepreneur, and I have invested in opportunities that have reaped great rewards and at the same time taken great losses. But never have I made such a small investment in a business that would yield profits like Ardyss International has. I have traveled more in six months than I have my entire life. Seeing the country is great as

well as the income that we have made but the personal development skills are priceless!

After being introduced to Ardyss International by Helen Dela’ Houssaye, I have began to dream again and with the confidence of making those dreams come true. I could not have accomplished any of my goals if it were not for my team who stays teachable, coachable and motivated even when the going gets tough. So thanks team! An appointment with Ardyss will change your life! It has truly changed our lives and the best is yet to come. I would also like to thank my wife Ty for believing in me from the very beginning as well as my three beautiful children Christian, Chasity and Caleb.

Como empresario he sufrido muchos altibajos en mi vida, y he invertido en oportunidades que me han generado grandes recompensas pero también me han dado grandes pérdidas. Pero nunca había hecho una pequeña inversión como con el Power Start, y que me otorgara tantas ganancias, hasta que encontré a Ardyss International. He viajado más en seis meses que en toda mi vida. Conocer el país al igual que los ingresos que uno genera es lo máximo pero desarrollar habilidades personales no tiene precio. Después de conocer Ardyss International de la mano de Helen Dela’ Houssaye, comencé a soñar de nuevo y con la plena confianza de hacer de esos sueños una realidad. Si no fuera por mi equipo, no hubiera podido lograr ninguna de mis metas, ellos siempre han sido un ejemplo, me han enseñado y motivado incluso cuando las cosas no han sido fáciles. Gracias equipo Una cita con Ardyss cambiará tu vida y esto realmente ha cambiado la nuestra. En menos de 4 meses he ganado más de $ 94,156 dólares. Me gustaría agradecer a mi esposa Ty por creer en mi desde el principio así como a mis tres bellos hijos, Christian, Chasity and Caleb.

No importa donde estas, o donde hayas estado, siempre puedes comenzar de nuevo y yo no podría pensar en un mejor lugar para comenzar que Ardyss International.

Because of Ardyss International, I am a new person inside and out! I’ve gone from a size 20 to a size 12 in 6 short months! Thank you Ardyss International for being the catalyst to health for Americans...� 44


Gracias a Ardyss International, soy una nueva persona por dentro y por fuera. En tan sólo 6 meses, pasé de usar talla 20 a ser talla 12. Es difícil expresar todo lo que Ardyss ha sido para mi familia, amigos y cada persona a la que hemos cambiado su vida radicalmente.

Because of the phenomenal products the company offers, everyone that we touch has been changed tremendously. My family is healthier and wealthier! When my brother Demond Coleman and Helen Dela Houssaye explained the wonders of Ardyss to me, I couldn’t believe it... so i told them No! But My Husband Darryl Hunter understood immediately the need to change the lives of others around us and urged me to take another look... so we did! Our lives have never been the same. This has been the best decision we’ve made! The compensation plan is truly amazing and has allowed us to be a true blessing to other people. Without the hard work of the team, we would not be where we are today! Thank you! We love You! We travel more as a family without worry for bills left behind. What more could one ask for?

gracias a lo fabuloso de los productos que la compañía ofrece. Ahora mi familia está saludable y con estabilidad económica. Cuando mi hermano Demond Coleman y Helen Dela Houssaye me explicaron las maravillas de la empresa, fue que mi esposo Darryl entendió inmediatamente la necesidad de cambiar la vida de otros y me hizo entender lo urgente que era para mi cambiar de look, fue entonces como decidimos entrar. Nuestras vidas ya no fueron las mismas, esa ha sido la mejor decisión que hemos tomado. El plan de compensación es realmente asombroso y nos ha permitido convertirnos en una verdadera bendición para otras personas.

Gracias Ardyss International, por ser el catalizador de la salud para los americanos. Viajamos en familia sin tenernos que preocupar por los gastos. ¿Qué más podemos pedir? 45

After being in the company for only three months we have earned over $10,000 and are moving up in rank at a rapid pace...” Our journey began with Ardyss International in March 2009, with a simple phone call from our Seattle President Annette Blanchard. The

question that she asked was, “who do you know that would like to drop 3 sizes in 10 minutes and get rich doing it?”

That one call introducing us to Ardyss three months ago has changed our life. The first step that we made was to purchase a power pack and make a list of everyone that we could share the business with. We set appointments with friends and family and showed the wonderful products that Ardyss has to offer. There is not a day that goes by that we don’t open our mouths and share this life changing opportunity with everyone that we come in contact with. After being in the company for only three months we have earned over $10,000 and are moving up in rank at a rapid pace. This is the only company that we know that allows you to earn great compensation while looking and feeling great and helping others to do the same. Thank you Ardyss for changing our lives… 48

Esa llamada no hizo ingresar a Ardyss International y desde entonces nuestra vida ha cambiado. El primer paso que seguimos fue comprar un Power Pack y hacer una lista de todas las personas que podrían interesarse en este negocio. Programamos citas con amigos y familiares para mostrarles los fabulosos productos Ardyss. Debo decir que no hay un solo día que éstas personas no recomienden los productos y compartan con otros ésta excelente oportunidad de cambiar vidas. Tenemos 3 meses en la compañía

y hemos obtenido más de $10,000.00 USD, y lo mejor es que estamos avanzando de rango muy rápidamente. Ésta

es la única compañía que conocemos que te permite lograr grandes compensaciones y al mismo tiempo te hace lucir y sentir excelente ayudando a otros a hacer lo mismo.

Before Ardyss, I was living paycheck to paycheck, with four (4) wonderful children, one of them graduating this year and headed to college...” Not knowing how I was going to pay my daughter’s tuition along with other outstanding bills. But thank God for Ms. Stormy We-

llington introducing me to this fabulous company that has enabled me to pay off the past bills and still money for my daughter’s tuition. Ardyss has also assisted in the increase of my confidence as allowed me to rub elbows with successful people through the network marketing system.

Antes de Ardyss yo vivía de sueldo en sueldo, con 4 maravillosos hijos, una de ellos por graduarse este año y acudir a la universidad.

Ardyss también es responsable de que yo me sienta más segura, y que ahora puede codearme con gente exitosa dentro del negocio del Multinivel.

Ardyss has given me the ability to make my dreams come true by empowering and encouraging individuals while providing them with great products that help internally and outwards. Thank God for giving the Diaz De Leon family this vision.

I am a 3rd generation business owner. I graduated from the University of Michigan with a degree in Business and Economics. In my twenties I opened a Nextel (Sprint) franchise in Detroit, MI. During those years, I also met my wonderful husband, Ben. He had already established a very successful international career as a musician and producer in the Gospel and Jazz music industry he had provided a very comfortable lifestyle for me and our 5 beautiful children, but I still had a passion for business that I wanted to fulfill on my own. Fortunately I found out about Ardyss International. Just before Thanksgiving of 2008, a good friend of mine, Roz Parker emailed me about Ardyss. So I ordered my Powerpack immediately without even seeing a showcase or presentation. Once I got my Powerpack products, I really started to

fall in love with the company. The LeVive tasted great, the skincare worked wonders and the garment really did reshape my body.

Afortunadamente lo encontré en Ardyss International. Una buena amiga, Roz Parker me envió un mail acerca de Ardyss. Ordené mi PorwerPack inmediatamente sin haber ido a ninguna presentación, una vez que tuve en mis manos los productos, realmente me enamoré de la compañía, Le´Vive sabe delicioso, los productos de la piel son increíbles y las prendas realmente moldean mi cuerpo.

Joining Ardyss International has been one of the best decisions we ever made in our lives. It is the answer to our prayers! Due to the economic downturn, our businesses were not doing well. On top of that, we had two daughters in college through May of last year which put an additional strain on our finances. Now one of them is about to enter medical school.

The income we’ve seen from Ardyss in just three months has taken the pressure off. Now, we don’t have to worry about finances and can start planning for our retirement. We have started dreaming again and can focus on doing things with our family, such as traveling, and we enjoy just being a blessing to others.

In January, I was approached by Shayla Sirmans, who invited me to an Ardyss business presentation. I attended with my co-worker Monica Blasingame. This night began a new era in my life. I decided to step out on faith and embark on a new business endeavor. I have always known that I was destining to be an educator and that’s a profession that I have enjoyed for over 10 years. Even though I have begun a new career, I still have the opportunity to serve as an educator.

I now educate consumers on the ability to improve their health, while changing their physical appearance via nutritional products and reshaping garments. Thanks Ardyss for allowing me to dream again.

Miguel Narváez

In the Real State Business I achieved personal acknowledgement and fortune, but I was not exempt from the fall of the markets and my financial stability crashed down too, I lose everything, and worst of all, my family. I come back to Ardyss; it was that light of hope to start again. If I had done it before, there was no reason I couldn’t do it again.” “I will always overcome them since I have the best inspirer and wealth there is for me on my side, my son Tony...”


En 1991, Miguel Narváez comenzó en Ardyss, como almacenista, por su enorme desempeño consigue el puesto de Responsable de Compras y hacia 1992 decide arriesgarse y viajar a España, para abrir el Mercado Europeo. Dos años después, forma junto con 40 personas, lo que hoy en día es el Mercado en EU, con lo cual alcanza el puesto de Director General.

Miguel Narvaez story with Ardyss begins in 1991 when he started as a warehouse clerk. Due to his outstanding performance, he was promoted to purchasing supervisor, and by 1992, he decided to take a chance and travel to Spain to open the European market. Two years later, he created what today is the US market along with other 40 people. This event brought him the CEO position. By 2006, Miguel Narvaez becomes a leader and he soon develops his organization, which expanded over Nevada, New York, the Dominican Republic, and Puerto Rico. In the real estate business he achieved personal acknowledgement and positioning. However, Miguel was not exempt from the fall of the markets and his financial stability crashed down too, causing him to lose his multiple investment properties, and worst of all, his family. Divorce struggles and the separation of his family depressed him but never beat him.

At those times of such instability, Ardyss International emerged as a lifesaver. “Ardyss was that light of hope, the fresh start I needed. If I had done it before, there was no reason I couldn’t do it again.”

Hacia 2006, Miguel Narváez se convierte en líder y pronto desarrolla su organización la cual se expande por Nevada, Nueva York, hasta República Dominicana y Puerto Rico. En el sector Inmobiliario obtiene el éxito. Aun así Miguel no estuvo exento a la caída de los mercados y su estabilidad económica se vino abajo, perdió sus múltiples propiedades de inversión y lo más importante perdió a su familia. Los estragos de un divorcio y la separación del núcleo familiar lo deprimieron pero nunca lo vencieron.

En esos momentos de tanta inestabilidad Ardyss International emergió como un salva vidas. “Ardyss fue esa luz de esperanza, el camino para empezar de nuevo, si ya lo había hecho antes porque no iba a poder hacerlo de nuevo.” “Quiero seguir mi crecimiento, no importan los obstáculos, tengo la mayor motivación y el mejor patrimonio a mi lado, mi hijo Tony.” Como en la parábola del hijo pródigo, Miguel regresa a Ardyss donde con los brazos abiertos se le impulsa a retomar su carrera de negocio, reactivando su red de mercadeo, haciéndola crecer y logrando en corto tiempo extraordinarios resultados. “Hoy después de mi divorcio, valoro más el tiempo que le puedo dedicar a mi hijo. Hay experiencias que nunca vas a recuperar en tu vida, pero hay que verle siempre el lado positivo a todo.”

“I will always overcome them since I have the best inspirer and wealth there is for me on my side, my son Tony As the Prodigal Son parable, Miguel comes back to Ardyss where he is welcomed open arms. He retakes his business career by reactivating his marketing network, making it grow and soon he obtain wonderful results. “Today, after 12 years since I got to this country and after my divorce, I value more the time I can dedicate to my son. There are experiences you never recover from, but you always have to look for the brighter side. 69

I never thought my life could change so radically. I had an internet business for over 15 years. Every day I would wake up very early in the morning In order to take care of my family, get ready to open my business and work until late at night. I was feeling exhausted and sick. I was discouraged, and without noticing it, I began to lose interest in things. I had fallen in a deep depression and nothing made sense anymore, I just didn’t care, up to the point where I wanted to die. Lucky for me, Ardyss came to my life last December and gave me back the will to go on and change my life completely. Since the first time I saw its reshaping products, I become very interested in being a part of the company. I started attending the demonstrations and getting involved. Reading about its great leaders in the Ardyss magazine inspired me deeply. This has been a year of big changes. I’ve been able to meet great people, travel to different places, and accumulate new experiences that have made me feel more self-confident.

Today I enjoy my time, my family and helping others improve their lives, health, and finances through this great opportunity Ardyss International is. 70

My life was not taking the direction I wanted. Although I always did my best, I could never get what I dreamed of. At the time I discovered Ardyss International, I realized I could finally be the owner of my destiny, and, most of all, the owner of my own business. When I saw the results of its health products in my mother and myself, I couldn’t do but focus on working hard in order to keep being promoted in rank.

N orma Ceceña

I began feeling very sad and frustrated. I was entirely submerged in my financial issues; bills piled up and I just couldn’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. I was so depressed I was never in the mood to do anything...”

My name is Norma Alicia Ceceña and I’m from Obregón, Sonora (México). For a long time, my life was entirely devoted to taking care of my kids and watch them grow. I stopped doing many things because of it, even things for my wellbeing. My children gave meaning to my life, and when they left to college I began feeling very sad and frustrated. I was entirely submerged in my financial issues; bills piled up and I just couldn’t see the light at the end of the tunnel. I was so depressed I was never in the mood to do anything; this was one of the reasons why I declined the invitation to join Ardyss many times, even getting out of my house was difficult to me.

Now, I regret not taking this opportunity Ardyss offers to everybody earlier. I finally decided to join the company, and since then achieving my goals keeps me going. When I learned about the business, I said to myself “It’s time to do something for me. It’s time to start the career I never had.” Now I can say I feel excited for the positive changes in my life and the financial stability I have reached. To the people who say there are no jobs, I would say it’s just a matter of looking in the right places. Ardyss has plenty; we just have to remember that women are always looking for ways to look better. Moreover, this company is within everyone’s reach. You have to leave the negative thinking behind and do your best. 72

Mi nombre es Norma Alicia Ceceña, y soy de Ciudad Obregón Sonora. Dediqué mi vida entera a cuidar y ver crecer a mis hijos, dejé de hacer muchas cosas, inclusive por mi misma. Cuando fueron a la universidad, comencé a sentirme muy desmotivada, frustrada, totalmente sumergida en mis problemas económicos, deudas acumuladas y sin esperanzas. No tenía ánimos de nada, estaba muy deprimida, por lo mismo varias veces rechacé la invitación al negocio de Ardyss, porque ni siquiera quería salir a la calle.

Finalmente decidí ingresar a la empresa,me dije: “Ya es tiempo de que haga algo por mí, ahora es el momento de hacer la carrera que nunca antes pude hacer. Hoy me siento muy animada por los cambios positivos en mi vida y la estabilidad económica lograda. Me siento realmente bien de que a través de Ardyss puedo ayudar a cambiar la vida de miles de personas, no sólo financieramente sino también físicamente. Gracias Ardyss International y gracias a mi equipo. A las personas que dicen que no hay trabajo, es cuestión de buscar, en Ardyss si hay, sólo debemos pensar que las mujeres siempre buscamos como vernos mejor, además ésta compañía está al alcance de todos. Hay que dejar atrás el pesimismo y echarle ganas.

I’m thankful that I received that call towards the end of December by Ms. Stormy Wellington. I thought her tears were some sales pitch that she incorporated in her story when she called me. Now, I’m the one who’s on the other end crying, telling others how Ardyss International changed my life.

Me siento agradecida de recibir en Diciembre pasado la llamada de Stormy Wellington, siendo sincera llegué a pensar que sus lágrimas eran una estrategia de venta que ella utilizaba para darle mayor credibilidad a su historia, ahora soy yo quien termina llorando cuando les cuento a otros el cómo Ardyss ha cambiado mi vida.

Ardyss International has been a blessing to my family, church and friends.

Ardyss International ha sido una bendición para mi familia, iglesia y amigos. En los últimos 2 años mis finanzas estaban muy mal y como la mayoría de la gente, no tenía muchas opciones.

My finances took a devastating blow within the past 2 years, and like so many others my options were few. There were many days were the electric company threatened to disconnect our service. However, God has a way of using a disconnect notice to reconnect us with our only source of real power, which is prayer. While I was praying, that’s when I received the call that changed my life. This opportunity has been a vehicle that has not only opened doors but has been a door wedge for so many, and for that I’m truly grateful. Thank you Ardyss

Hubo muchas ocasiones en que la compañía de electricidad amenazó con suspendernos el servicio de luz, sin embargo Dios supo como utilizar la noticia de la suspensión del servicio, para conectarnos con nuestra única fuente de poder real, nuestras oraciones. Fue mientras oraba cuando recibí la llamada que cambió mi vida. Antes al llegar al banco a ver las deudas de mis cuentas, los empleados me recibían con un simple hola, ahora me reciben con hola Sra. Owens. Ésta oportunidad ha sido un vehículo que no sólo me ha abierto las puertas a mi, sino a muchas personas y estoy muy agradecida por ello. 73

I was introduced to Ardyss in October 2008 and I must say my life has not been the same since I have become a part of this awesome organization. I simply can’t believe the positive impact Ardyss has made in my life and that of my family. For the past 21 years, I have been a professional hair stylist; as a result, I have always worked very extensive hours to maintain a comfortable lifestyle. Due to the nature of my business, I suffer from severe back pain which in turn has caused me to reduce my work load. As you can imagine, my financial well-being was impacted greatly. As you can see, things are much better now. After six month with Ardyss, I have made President and I am feeling great. My income has increased substantially and I am well on my way to financial freedom. More impor-

tantly, I now have the ability to start aggressively saving for my daughter’s future. Ultimately, allowing her to attend the college of her choice. My future goal with Ardyss is to continue to empower men and women with the knowledge associated with gaining and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. I, also, want to educate them on how to obtain wealth. Finally, I want to stress the importance of reaching back and having a positive impact on the lives of other.

Ingresé a Ardyss International, en Octubre de 2008 y mi vida nunca volvió a ser la misma. Por más de 21 años he sido una estilista profesional, he trabajado muy duro y muchas horas extras para mantener un estilo de vida confortable. Debido a que en mi empleo, tenía que estar mucho tiempo de pie, sufría de intensos dolores en la espalda, los cuales a la larga no me permitían trabajar tiempo completo y como resultado mis ingresos se vieron afectados considerablemente. Ahora las cosas han mejorado mucho. Después de 6 meses con Ardyss, ahora tengo el rango de Presidente y me siento excelente. Mis ingresos han aumentando sustancialmente y voy excelente por el camino para obtener mi libertad financiera. Lo más importante es que ahora tengo la capacidad y la habilidad para comenzar a ahorrar para el futuro de mi hija y que ella pueda decidir el tipo de universidad que desea. Mi meta futura con Ardyss es continuar motivando a hombres y mujeres, seguir compartiendo mi conocimiento con ellos, obteniendo y manteniendo un estilo de vida saludable que al mismo tiempo les permita tener estabilidad económica. Finalmente quiero resaltar la importancia de alcanzar y poder tener un impacto positivo en la vida de otros. 75

I began this incredible journey with Ardyss International in December of 2008. After spending years in corporate America leading teams and making millions for others, I was looking for more time with my family, personal satisfaction and financial freedom. I have found all of that and more with Ardyss. This opportunity is pure gold in the ashes of a fallen economy and because of Ardyss International; my family will not participate in this recession. God has truly blessed me with a vehicle which will be a springboard for so many of my dreams.

International. Ésta oportunidad es oro puro brillando en las cenizas de una economía inestable y crítica, gracias a Ardyss mi familia no es parte de ésta dura recesión.

I am so thankful for my phenomenal team. It is an honor and a privilege to work with so many people who have the courage and stamina to relentlessly pursue their dreams. I am excited about the next leg of this journey and look forward, with anticipation, to the wealth

Quiero agradecer también a mi fenomenal equipo, es un honor y un privilegio trabajar con gente que tiene el coraje y la resistencia para perseguir implacablemente sus sueños. Me siento muy entusiasmada y espero con ansias la siguiente meta, porque la estabilidad financiera que uno obtiene en este negocio es lo que marca la diferencia en la vida de todos.

We are changing lives and I am working to build a legacy of empowerment for my family. I thank God for this opportunity and for the increase!

Estamos cambiando vidas y estoy trabajando arduamente para construir un legado para mi familia. Gracias Dios por la oportunidad y por el incremento.

that comes only through making a difference in the lives of others.

Comencé esta increíble jornada con Ardyss International en Diciembre de 2008. Después de pasar años en corporativos, liderando equipos y haciendo millones para otros, estaba buscando más tiempo para dedicarlo a mi familia, deseaba una satisfacción personal y lograr mi libertad financiera. Encontré lo mejor con Ardyss
