How are the Vemma products different? We’re a brand you can trust! Vemma products feature the unique Eastern and Western wellness philosophy of Chief Science Officer Yibing Wang M.D., Ph.D. What makes this clinically studied formula so unique and so effective? Our products utilize the mangosteen superfruit from Southeast Asia, widely known in the wellness community as the “Queen of Fruits” for its high antioxidant and xanthone levels along with its exquisite taste. Dr. Wang pioneered a proprietary extraction method that allows Vemma to offer unparallel levels of these amazing phytonutrients. The Vemma formula also contains 12 full-spectrum vitamins and antioxidants, plus trace mineral blend. Finally, organically sourced, glyconutrient rich aloe vera and green tea provide an incredibly powerful and complete liquid nutritional supplement. Independently tested and manufactured in FDA-inspected facilities with stringent standards, our Vemma formula has been clinically studied via randomized, doubleblind, placebo-controlled clinical trials. Studies published in the Journal of Medicinal Food and the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry. have confirmed that Vemma users show significant improvements in immune markers, superior antioxidant absorption and a lowering of C-reactive protein (CRP), an indicator of overall wellness.*

what is network marketing? Networking is defined as connecting two people with common interests to share a piece of information or an idea. This concept is very different from sales. Networking means asking questions, listening and offering a solution rather than selling or convincing. A sales approach usually results in a person feeling “sold” and ends in resistance. Network marketing is all about building the relationship between you and your prospect. The health and wellness industry is very personal; the best support comes from word-of-mouth referrals and personal advertising as told by tens of thousands of people like you every day. We made the decision to take the millions of dollars typical companies spend on traditional advertising to promote their products and divert them to a better form of advertising, YOU! This critical decision has fueled Vemma’s growth.

“The Power
of Compounding” Have you ever been asked,
“Would you rather have a million dollars, or a penny doubled every day for 30 days?” Simple math says no to the million dollars! The power of duplication reveals a far greater result in doubling the penny for 30 days. Take a look at the example on the left. After just 30 days, that penny grows into more than €5 million! The Vemma opportunity works on the same basic principle of duplication — so let the principle work for you! When you’re excited about the product and opportunity and you share your story with two people, then introduce the product and opportunity to two more people who, in turn introduce it to two more people, the momentum builds and duplication is set in motion!

Test Track: Dream Big Dreams Do you dream? If so, do you dream big? As children, all of us were dreamers — one day we wanted to be a doctor; the next an astronaut. Sadly, most people abandon the ability to dream as they grow up… but it doesn’t have to be this way. Thanks to the Vemma business opportunity, you don’t have to settle for mediocrity. Allow yourself to dream. Remember, your dreams are the foundation of your Vemma business — so dream big! Take 5 to 10 minutes for a Big Dream Test Track. Accelerate to three years from now to envision the details of the life you want. Once you’re firmly entrenched in your dream, answer the following questions. • Where are you? • What does your perfect day — or life — look like? • How big would you dream if you knew you couldn’t fail? • Where do you live? • How do you spend your time? • Who do you spend your time with? • Where do you travel? • What charities and causes do you support? Keeping an eye on the clock, continue to visualize for at least five full minutes. Elaborate about your dreams here. Have fun and dream big! _______________________________________________________________________________________

two kinds of freedom What’s keeping you from living the life of your dreams, right now? For most people, there are two major culprits: time and freedom. Take a moment to think about how your life would change if you had more of them. • Time freedom: What will you do with more personal time? Would you like to work from home in order to be closer to your children and/or spouse? • Financial freedom: How much money do you want to make? What would you do with extra income? How would it feel to be in control of your financial future?

What’s your story?
Making the Shift: Your First 7 Days,
Your Why is so important to starting your Vemma business because it’s what you turn into your Vemma story. Think about it. What attracted you to the Vemma products and/or opportunity? Your story captivatingly illustrates how and why you decided to build a business with Vemma. Make it passionate, personal and include an opportunity testimonial. Speak to what people relate to and appeal to a broad audience; for example, everyone can understand the desire to spend more time with family or improve your quality of life. Here’s an example of a story from Maria, who successfully turned her Why into an effective story to share with prospects. A single mother of three children, Maria has worked full-time for 19 years as a teacher. She started working when her daughter was just 8 weeks old and has missed being part of her children’s lives as they were growing up. Although she seems to make good money, the reality is that Maria lives paycheck to paycheck. These elements of Maria’s life make her experience relatable in a personal and compelling way.

“Hi, everyone. I’m Maria, and I’ve been a single working mother since my first daughter was just 8 weeks old. I’ve missed out on the important times in my children’s lives. I wanted to be able to have more time in my life and give my children more than what they currently have — perhaps start a college fund. Last spring, I was introduced to Vemma. At that first Opportunity Meeting, I wondered if this could really work for me. Well, after trying the product, I found myself telling everyone about it, and shortly after that I was encouraging people to taste it. So I decided to build a business. With my continued success and hard work, someday I’ll be able to be at home with my children, living the life of my dreams with the time and money to do what I’ve always wanted. If you’re wondering if it’s possible to live the life of your dreams, I’m here to tell you that Vemma can be your Plan B to help change your life!”

You’ve just completed Step 1 of starting a Vemma business, so you’re already headed in the right direction. Now, let’s build on this foundation and move toward achieving your dreams. On to Step 2!

attitude sets your course
step 2:
Welcome to Step 2. In this section, you’ll: • Learn why attitude is everything • Learn the value of attending the Vemma Convention Every journey starts with the desire to go to new places. Taking the time to plan your route will pay off when it’s time to get on the road. It all starts with your Why!
Choose the right route Did you know that having the right attitude is a choice— your choice? It’s true. Choose to be positive and enthusiastic, then watch where that route takes you! A great attitude makes you approachable and coachable. Fuel your dreams by committing to read positive books, listen to inspiring audio programs and associate with positive people. Choosing to have a great attitude is an investment you make in your business and in yourself!
Surround yourself with other leaders by attending the Vemma Convention There’s no better way for you to grasp the full Vemma experience than by attending the Vemma Convention, which is held annually. Hosted by Founder and CEO, BK Boreyko, you’ll be in great company with Brand Partners from all over the world to learn from and network with. You’ll hear stories of how Vemma is helping others live happier, healthier lives, and hone your leadership as well as your personal development skills by learning from some of the best minds in the industry which have included Darren Hardy, Brian Tracy and many others. Choose to invest in your success by making the Vemma Convention a priority in your journey, right from the start. As many Brand Partners can attest, attending Vemma Convention was one of their most life-changing events that affirmed their decision and their personal why for being a part of Vemma.
set your expectations high! Expect your Vemma business to grow and grow. Vemma’s incredible product line and the opportunity to create additional income with the Vemma opportunity are enough to get people interested in your business. To maintain that interest, commit to these two key success principles: • Stay plugged in. Connect to your Upline Coaches. Attend Local and Regional events. Learn about the marketing and training tools. • Do something positive every day to advance your Vemma business. When you commit to consistent daily activity, you’ll be amazed at the results over time!

Vemma Action Plan
TUNE UP
Roadblocks That’s not to say that no one experiences setbacks and disappointments — even top Vemma Brand Partners have off days. But the key is not to let setbacks color your spirit. If you run into an obstacle, turn it into a positive by asking yourself, “How can I learn from this experience?” You’ll find that roadblocks force you to find new routes that may be even better than the ones you had first envisioned. Turn to your Action Plan for guidance, too.
Test track: Be the leader you’d like to have! Good leaders, bad leaders, we’ve all been there. Over the years, you’ve encountered those who have helped you on the way to your dreams, and those who may have hindered you. Most mean well, but sometimes those in positions of power just don’t have the tools to give their team what they need to succeed. A supportive leader can make all the difference, and over the years you’ve been exposed to enough people in top positions to know what works and what doesn’t work for you. So let’s use that experience to build you into the kind of leader you’d like to be, the kind you would like to have yourself! In the space on the following page, jot down the names of as many positive leaders and mentors as you can remember, and add a word or two about what you appreciated and admired about their leadership style.
When you catch the attention of bright, talented people, you’re putting your Vemma business on the fast track! Spend time surrounded by others who have already achieved what they seek to accomplish. In turn, be an inspiration to those who are just starting to follow their own dreams. Set a good example, and your team will look up to you!

If you’d like, try the opposite. Think back to a few leaders who didn’t contribute to your success and personal growth. These are the traits you want to avoid! Example:

Of course, many leaders have both good and bad qualities, so don’t be afraid to put them into different categories. The key is to look at these names and words and model yourself into an effective leader by remembering what works and what doesn’t work for you. Write your own name and think of three brief words to describe how you’d like your team to see you. Example: Tom S.

Your list is your first step in reaching out to hundreds or thousands of people about enhancing their physical and financial health.
Drivers, start your pencils. Take a few minutes to write down the names of everyone you know, and everyone who knows you.

How to start a conversation about Vemma You’ll see how easy it is to talk about Vemma with your list of prospects whenever the subject of health comes up. Following is an example of the kind of conversation you might have. Here’s how you might start the conversation: “Do you know anyone that would like an opportinity to earn extra income part-time each month by promoting a breakthrough weight management program?”
Brand Partner
– OR – If you are speaking to a younger person, try this approach:
“How would you like the opportunity to get paid to promote and drink a healthy energy drink?”
Stop and Listen. Then continue the conversation like this:
Brand Partner
“Well, I’ve partnered up with a wellness company called Vemma and I’m looking for a couple of people that need to either find a healthy program to help lose weight or an opportunity to create residual income.”
– OR –
“There’s a hot new brand called Verve you can get paid to promote it.”
Most people will ask, “What’s it about?”
Brand Partner
“It takes about 20 minutes to get you the details. Is there a good time we could grab coffee? Or set up a 3 way call with your upline.”
Reminder: No matter how you choose to introduce your prospect to Vemma, always ensure that he or she tastes the product, and that you keep the conversation brief.
The next step: Give your prospect a sample and encourage him or her to taste it, right then and there! Your prospect might like to take a sample home, too. In that case, say, “I know you are going to love what Vemma/Verve/Bod·ē will do for you. Remember to give your prospect a copy of Vemma Voice and be sure to include your contact information. He or she will want something to refer to once your conversation is over.
The follow-up: Your conversation doesn’t end there! After your meeting or 3 way call, follow up with your prospect in a few days to find out how he or she liked the sample(s). Get them talking about their experience by answering any questions they have.
Vemma Action Plan

Test Track: Create your 10-Second Vemma Introduction During that first conversation, sometimes it’s best to say less instead of more because too much information can be overwhelming. Once you’ve given your prospect a sample and followed up, you’ll find an opening for a longer talk.
know your prospects! Before you start your conversation, keep the following points in mind. They’ll help you guide the conversation in a direction that will be meaningful to your prospects. • What age is your prospect? • Can they use additional income?
One way to get the conversation started right is with your 10-Second Vemma Introduction. It’s basically a script about Vemma that you’ve composed yourself, and that you will have practiced enough so that it feels comfortable and natural when you bring it up. That introduction intrigues others into wanting to hear more. The examples below are of 10-Second Vemma Introductions written by successful Brand Partners. Use them as a guide, but use your own words. Now that you’ve learned about the products, this should be a breeze! Examples: “I always felt like I couldn’t get ahead until I heard about Vemma, it’s this great company that makes a liquid nutrition supplement that’s fantastic! The products and the business opportunity have really made a huge difference in my life. I also have the opportunity to earn a little bit of extra money. May I give you a free sample to try?” “My family has a super-crazy schedule so we don’t always eat like we should. I just found a liquid nutritional supplement called Vemma. It’s amazing! Let me give you a sample: you’ll love the way it tastes! It’s made such a difference in my family, plus I have the opportunity to earn a little extra cash on the side.”* “I heard you mention that you wish you had more time in the day. I can totally relate. I was in your shoes, before I started my own business. You know, you can do the same thing too, and I can show you how to get started if you’re interested?”

TOOLBOX
Key Points to Remember When you’re presenting the product and the opportunity, remember to: • Present a brief introduction to Vemma. • Provide a brief description with three parts: health benefits, reason to believe and dramatic difference. As a precaution, be careful not to make any health or medical claims. • Request a third-party referral: “Do you know anyone who would be interested in learning about Vemma?” Make sure you write down the information. • Leave your prospect with some points to ponder. For example, “If there was anything you could change about your health, what would it be?” or “What would you do with extra income each month?” • Follow up with your prospect in a few days; respond to their questions as quickly as possible with answers!

One of the best things about the Vemma opportunity is how clearcut the compensation plan is, and how quickly you can start earning. With some effort and sticking to this plan, talking to people about a simple plan to create residual income gets really exciting! To make things easier as you begin, let’s go over some of your own financial goals.

A balance of effort and reward The Vemma Referral Bonus Plan is one of the most dynamic in the network marketing industry. Whether you simply use and share the products, develop contacts, build a network of Brand Partners, or a combination of any or all of these, Vemma offers valuable rewards, cash bonuses, car bonuses, travel and much more! Different Brand Partners may have different dreams, but all share the same goal: to offset the cost of the product, and the opportunity to create an income. From your very first day with your Vemma business, you have the opportunity to earn money. Here are the basics about how the Vemma compensation works: • Vemma pays several bonuses (see below). • Most bonuses pay weekly; payday is Thursday. • The bonus structure directs a goal-setting system that walks you through three goals that give you the opportunity to offset the cost of the product, create a full-time income, or create a part-time income.
Vemma’s bonuses The bonuses in the Vemma Compensation Plan are simple and compatible with these goals. The success of each Brand Partner is dependent on his or her own personal effort. The bonuses are:
1
Fast Start Bonus — opportunity to create immediate income and offset the cost of the product.
2 Momentum Bonus — opportunity to create part-time income. 3 Builder Pack Flag — opportunity to create full-time income. 4 Cycle Bonus — opportunity to create full-time income. 5 Matching Bonus — opportunity to create full-time income. 6 Second Tier Matching Bonus — opportunity to create full-time income. 7 One-Time Rank Advancement Bonus — rewards you for following the objectives in the Pin Rank System. Use this as your goal-setting guide. See Step 6; page 35 for more specific details.
8 Global Bonus — quarterly bonus shared by qualified Brand Partners every 12 weeks.

Practice, practice, practice
yes
You are your own best commodity. The wording you use when talking to prospects must be genuine, or it will sound scripted. If it sounds scripted, your prospect is less likely to take the opportunity — or you — seriously.
no maybe
So don’t be shy about using your natural enthusiasm about the product. That might mean rewriting the conversations or scenarios below in your own words to best describe your message. Then practice, practice, practice. Don’t forget to smile!
LISTEN to overcome objections Think of an objection as an invitation for more information, not as a cue for you to stop discussing the opportunity. The more your prospects know about Vemma, the less they will have to object to! The key to helping prospects understand the opportunity is to LISTEN to their reservations. • Listen to your prospects to understand their question(s)/concern(s). • Identify and validate their feelings. Right or wrong, they feel this way and need clarification or guidance from you. • Solve misunderstandings by asking questions to help clarify their question(s)/concern(s). Repeat their question(s)/concern(s) to assess your response and ensure you understood them. • Take action. Ask lots of questions and seek your Upline’s advice to obtain additional support. • Empathize with your prospects by showing them that you understand their question(s)/concern(s) and share your personal Vemma experience. • Needs. Confirm that your prospect’s questions and concerns have been resolved. If not, repeat and LISTEN! Remember, even if you get a “no,” you are one step closer to a “yes.” “No” answers are a part of this business. They aren’t saying no to you, but to their own ability to create success in this type of marketing. Your Upline team has been where you are, and is prepared to coach you through this temporary setback. So set a goal to get as many “no’s” as you can and celebrate the “yes’s!”
Vemma Action Plan
avoid the fear freeze! It’s natural to have reservations as you begin a new venture. You may be thinking, “I don’t have enough success yet!” or “I don’t know enough to talk about the opportunity!” or “I won’t know how to answer questions.” Sometimes these concerns make new Brand Partners freeze with fear instead of introducing the opportunity. • Set up a Home Event, a one-on-one conversation or a conference call. • Schedule a conversation with a couple of interested parties in person or over the phone, and include your Upline Success Coach. • Consider attending a Vemma Regional Event. (Go to vemma.com > Back Office > Vemma Europe > Events to locate an event near you.)
29
Now, get talking! Now that you’re prepared with a lot of facts about the business and compensation plan, and armed to deal with objections, it’s time to start talking to prospects. Remember, when introducing the Vemma opportunity, follow some of the same steps outlined in Step 4, using any of these effective approaches.
The Direct Approach This is how you’ll introduce the opportunity to a prospect, one-on-one. You’ll find your own style for these approaches, but to start, try a conversation over several days, like this one.
Brand Partner
“If I could show you how to invest €126 per month in your family’s health with a chance to turn that into a full-time or part-time income, what would you say?”*
“What is it?”
Prospect
“I own a business and we offer people the opportunity to earn additional income.” Brand Partner
“It depends on what is involved?”
“How do you do that?” Prospect
“We do this through an amazing nutritional product called Vemma! It tastes great—you’ve got to try it!” Brand Partner
However you choose to introduce your prospects to Vemma, make certain they taste the product, and that you keep the conversation brief. Getting that product into their hands is a great way to keep their interest piqued for the next steps!
(Now, give prospect a copy of the Vemma Voice video.)
“If I give you this DVD, would you promise me that you’ll watch it within the next 24 hours? Great, I’ll call you tomorrow.”
Brand Partner
“Did you have an opportunity to watch the Reinvent Your Life DVD that I gave you? What did you like about it?”
Brand Partner

The next step Involve your prospect in a Home Event and get your Upline involved. Here are a few ways you can work up to this step: • “Join me for a private business reception coming up on [DATE] at [TIME]!” (Note: Make sure you know when the next few Home Events your Upline hosts will be taking place! List them in a planner or mobile device so they’ll always be handy). • “Allow me to introduce you to my business partner [your Upline] over the phone.” • “Let’s get together for about 45 minutes. Allow me to tell you the whole story.” • “Join me for a 30-minute conference call, and I’ll tell you more!” (Note: Check with your Upline Success Coach on how to perform 3-way calls. It’s a simple yet impressive business move that prospects really respond to).
The Third-Party Approach Involve your prospect in a Home Event and get your Upline involved. Here are a few ways you can work up to this step:
calm, educate and empower, which is easy with the “Feel, Felt and Found” method.

Other approaches The suggested scripts above are just that — suggestions. The more you talk to people, the more you’ll find yourself developing your own style that reflects your personal story and enthusiasm for the product and the opportunity. Here are a few engaging ways to start the conversation, whether you’re standing in line at the grocery story, at a social function, or on the phone. • To a fellow guest at a party: “I know you’re a fun person, and I like to surround myself with people like you. I found a unique opportunity that pays full-time rewards with part-time efforts that may interest you.* I’d love to introduce you to [Upline Brand Partner name] to hear his/her story. It just takes a few minutes!” • To someone whose success or lifestyle you admire: “I know you’re already a successful person. I’ve come across a unique opportunity that pays for product referrals. This may or may not interest you. My only goal is to invite you to hear a success story from a person who has created income streams from these types of referrals. Even better, it comes from a product that we never see, ship or exchange money for! Would you be willing to hear his/her story before deciding if this is a fit for you? It won’t take long.” • To an at-home parent or someone who is looking for a change: “I’m looking for people interested in working from home. I realize this may or may not be for you. I’d like to introduce you to [Upline Brand Partner name], who is successfully making a full-time income with part-time effort.* Would you be open to a brief conversation to see if this would be a fit for you? It should only take a few minutes.” • To someone who may be struggling in the current economy, or who you know is saving for college: “I’m thinking of people who may have an interest in a second stream of income without a traditional-type second job. This opportunity offers full-time rewards with part-time efforts and I realize this may or may not be for you.* I’d also like to introduce you to [Upline Brand Partner name] to hear his/her story, which may help you decide if this is a fit for you. Would that interest you at all?” • To someone you know who has tried other network marketing businesses before: “The reason for my call is I’m looking for individuals who have experience in network marketing. I know you’ve tried network marketing before, and this opportunity may or may not be for you. What caught my interest is the simple referral plan. Would you be interested in hearing the difference? I’d like to introduce you to [Upline Brand Partner name] to hear his/her story.”
* Results not typical. You may not do as well.

Including your Upline Brand Partner You’ve secured your prospect’s interest. Congratulations! You’ve successfully shared the opportunity, and you’ll have some great backup for the next step: your Upline. When you bring your prospect and Upline Brand Partner together, think of a venue or time that works for all involved. It may help to let your prospect choose the situation that most appeals to him or her. For example, offer a choice of the following options: • Home Event • One-on-one coffee • Phone appointment • Conference call If your prospect feels comfortable at this next step, he or she is much more likely to be receptive to your Upline Brand Partner’s input.
Develop and maintain detailed records All successful business owners manage their contacts. In a people business like Vemma, it’s crucial to keep track of your conversations and meetings, so you’ll always know which products your prospects have tried, who to follow up with and what you can offer next. Update your records immediately after a conversation, while it’s still fresh in your mind, and be sure to keep the information organized and current. You’ll see these small steps really pay off when you’re managing meetings with multiple prospects and Brand Partners!

Setting up your office An organized workspace in your home helps get you focused on building your business. Consider the following business needs as you organize your workspace. • Create an area for a “visual goal space” to motivate you daily. A corkboard or dry-erase board makes it easy to see the written and visual goals you have established every day. • Order personalized business-building tools, including business cards and stationery. • Set up a separate bank account, and consider opening a separate credit-card account, too. This will make it easier to track your Vemma orders versus other purchases, as well as make tracking business expenses a snap once tax time rolls around! • Set up your phone’s voicemail or answering machine to reflect your new business. For example: “You’ve reached the Jones family, and Mary Jones, Vemma Brand Partner.” • Get connected online. With Internet access, you’re plugged in to everything you need to know from the Vemma Home Office at vemma.eu. Here you’ll find many perks of the business, including: ||

Study the Vemma Action Plan and discuss the scripts in the plan with your new Brand Partners. Follow up every 2-4 days to see how they’re doing; however, be sure to book your next coaching session with them before you leave.

Welcome to Step 6. In this section, you’ll • Map out your short- and long-term goals • Realize the importance of committing to ongoing activity • Learn to work SMART!
What are your goals? Goals provide direction and motivation. They help you reach your destination by setting daily, weekly, monthly and yearly targets. When a destination feels far away, accomplishing short-term goals makes it real and attainable. In this step of the GPS, let’s define your goals by figuring out a long-term plan for where you want to be, then create a series of short-term goals to help achieve your plan.
Your first objectives
the four steps of ongoing activity 1 Schedule volume-producing activities.
2 Set your monthly goals and create your plan of action.
3 Work to reach your goals by following your plan.
4 Get connected and stay connected to your Upline, utilizing local and companyowned training materials as well as online tools.
To propel your business in the beginning, we recommend the following goals: • Share the Vemma story with a minimum of two people a day, using Vemma business tools. • Schedule one or more presentations per week, or 2–6 Home Events per month. Doesn’t that sound manageable? Starting with these smaller goals will help you keep the momentum going. Soon you’ll be closer to your overall goal!

Then work backward to where you are today to break them down into individual, short-term goals ranging from daily to yearly, centered on things like business activity and personal development. When your list is specific and realistic, you will be successful in reaching your goals. But these goals should also challenge you. Don’t sell yourself short!

Your goal is to meet 20 to 30 people each month. The next step is to get into revenue-producing activity with Vemma Home Events. This is the fun part of the job! You’ll get to meet people and spend time with friends and family, sharing nutritionally beneficial products and an incredible opportunity.

Consistency is key! The more people you meet and share Vemma with, the faster your business can grow. Consistent activity is the key to success, and momentum is your best business partner. Similarly, activity will create momentum, and momentum will grow your business. There are two very effective reach-out methods for introducing your prospects to Vemma:
work SMART To work SMART, break a

can achieve every day:
Choose one method that works for you, or vary your approach by incorporating both. And as you use these methods, remember to attach yourself to the activity, not the outcome. Your skills and results will improve over time. Stay committed and remain consistent in your activities, and watch your business grow!
• Specific
Help your team develop goals
• Realistic
Show your new Brand Partners that you believe in the process too! This isn’t a get-rich-quick scheme; you are putting in consistent effort over time for a payoff that could be tremendous. Seeing your goals will help illustrate this to those who aren’t as far along in the business as you are.
• Timely
So share with your Brand Partners how important long-term goals are, and how to break them into smaller, more realistic goals. You all should have purchasing goals, enrollment goals, activity goals, and Home Event goals, to name a few. Write down and date each goal, and review your lists during your one-on-one accountability sessions.
A sample outline for achieving goals Here’s how one Brand Partner set her goal of reaching the next level. Can you see how clear-cut this plan is, and how she broke each element into small, manageable tasks? If you laid out your goals in this way, how quickly could you make it to your next goal?
Purchasing
• Measurable • Attainable
A SMART goal is: “I will make it to Royal Ambassador in three years. I will make Presidential in two years. I will make Platinum in the next six months by following the plan I have worked out to make sure I am meeting purchasing, sharing, enrolling, business-building and personal development goals.” (For an example of a great plan, go to page 38.)
A SMART goal is NOT: “I want to be a Royal Ambassador this year.”
• I will purchase a minimum of 60 QV per month, every month. ||
||
A minimum purchase of 60 QV monthly will qualify me for the Fast Start Bonus and my free Brand Partner website. A minimum purchase of 120 QV monthly and two personally enrolled active Brand Partners (one in each leg) will qualify me for additional bonuses.

your co-pilots and passengers
step 7:
Welcome to Step 7. In this section, you’ll • Learn why being a co-pilot — a role model and mentor — helps propel your business • Realize that you can turn to your Enroller and Upline for advice, input and personal coaching
Vemma is a people business A Vemma business isn’t just lucrative and life-changing, it’s fun! Whether you’ve enrolled a friend or family member, or you just like meeting new people with goals similar to yours, with Vemma you can truly enjoy the people you work with. That’s the beauty of being part of a people business. As you got your business off the ground, you counted on the support of your Upline to fill in the blanks, give you ideas and simply cheer you on. Now that you’re building your own team of Brand Partners, it’s your turn to be in the driver’s seat.
Be a role model Your role as Enroller is very important. You became a leader as soon as you enrolled your first new member! Help them create short- and long-term goals and plans to achieve them. It’s likely you were your new Brand Partner’s initial connection with Vemma and, in many cases, one of the reasons they started their own business. They already respect you and look up to your success, and now they are counting on you to guide them just as you were guided when you first started.
40
your brand partners look to you for resources When you were first approached with the Vemma opportunity, you likely had questions — perhaps even some reservations. Now that you’ve “been there, done that,” your experience will guide your new Brand Partners in their own venture. As their Enroller and Upline, you’re there to help! You already know that with Vemma, you’re in business for yourself, not by yourself — so share that philosophy with your new Brand Partners. Know that the Vemma Home Office is ready to provide all the products and support you need, including websites, orders and product delivery, training, and business-building tools and guides. Because all of these services are taken care of, Brand Partners can focus their efforts on using the products, sharing the products, discussing the business opportunity and helping others do the same.
Vemma Action Plan
IN THE DRIVER’S SEAT
Attitude is still everything! Now your positive attitude is more important than ever. As you steer others toward success, keeping positive will keep your team going and maintain your Downline’s faith in your leadership. Here are some tips for remaining positive now that you’re building your own team: • Talk with your active Upline whenever you have issues or concerns. Any communications with your Downline should always be positive. • Lead your Downline through actions and encouragement. Your group may avoid some of the setbacks you experienced if you use yourself as an example. • Do the same things you’re teaching and coaching your team to do. If you’re telling your team to talk to two people a day, make sure you’re also talking to two people a day! This shows duplication and solidifies your credibility — and it begins the process of developing leverage, too.
Don’t neglect your own needs You’ve established a Downline team of your own, but that doesn’t mean you always have all the answers. It’s important to keep in touch with your own Enroller and others in your organization: your Upline. They’re your support in helping you attain your dreams, which, in turn, helps you help your team. Your Enroller and Upline have a vested interest in your success. Get connected and stay connected with others who are doing exactly what you’re doing. Learn from them and teach others what you’ve learned. Your network is there to support you, just as you’re there to support yours.
Put me in, coach! Think of your Vemma business as a team sport and your Enroller as your coach. How can your coach improve your game? Review your “game plan” — your time commitments, priorities, activities, results and progress. Present it to your coach, and listen to the feedback you get. Even when you think you’ve covered everything, your coach can approach your lineup from a different point of view and offer tips based on his or her wisdom and experience. As you keep in close touch with your Enroller and others in your organization, be sure to share your goals and/or any obstacles you may have encountered. And if one coach is good, even more can be better! Identify an Upline Diamond Scan our QR Code with (or higher) as part of your coaching team, too. your smart phone to watch a video clip.
Vemma Action Plan
celebrate small victories Small steps deserve recognition, especially when your new Brand Partner is just starting out. Take time to celebrate even minor accomplishments to show your support as an Enroller and Upline. Here are a few ideas: • Handwrite a note of encouragement or congratulations. In this electronic age, people notice and appreciate the extra time a handwritten note takes. • During team meetings, recognize a Brand Partner’s accomplishment of key goals. It’s a great motivator both for the honoree and the rest of the team. • Take your Brand Partner to dinner. A social occasion is a great way to celebrate an activity or meeting a goal.
Congratulations! You’ve completed Step 7. As a mentor, help your Downline set a direction and navigate any bumps, and always maintain a positive attitude. But don’t forget that you can always tap the resources of your own Upline when you run into roadblocks! On to Step 8!

take it to the next level!
step 8:
Welcome to Step 8. In this section, you’ll • Put the steps you’ve learned into action! • Set up your first Vemma Bod·ē Party or Home Event • Get excited to keep your momentum going!
Keep it going! You’ve completed the preliminary work to get started as a new Brand Partner. Keeping your business going and growing is as simple as following these steps:
1
Continue to schedule your activity every 30 days.
2 Set monthly goals to create your weekly plan of action. 3 Work to reach your goals by following your plan. 4 Get and stay connected.
You’ve done the learning; now start earning! Remember the first five people from your Contact List in Step 3? Call them up, invite them over and share the Vemma products with them. It’s as simple as that. This is called a Home Event, and it is one of the very best ways to kick-start your Vemma business. Holding a Vemma Bod·ē Party or Home Event in your living room, office, clubhouse or even your kitchen provides a relaxed and comfortable environment for your first reach-out. Remember, not every presentation has to be as elaborate as a Home Event. Reaching out to potential Brand Partners can be as simple as coffee or a lunch meeting. But a Vemma Bod·ē Party or Home Event is a great way to start. Once your first event is over, keep building relationships wherever and whenever you can. Sharing the product with people you encounter is like planting seeds that can blossom into wonderful relationships and a business that can reward your efforts and your family like no other!

SET YOUR OWN COURSE
How to Set Up and Host a Successful Vemma Bod·ē Party Hosting a Vemma Bod·ē Party is a great way to introduce people to the benefits of the Vemma Bod·ē products and 12-Week Transformation Plan as well as the Vemma opportunity. It’s a terrific way to reach many people at once with your story and grow your team at the same time. People love personal settings; they feel privileged to be extended an invite and usually want to invite one or more of their friends to partake in the fun! Your Vemma Home Event is an event people should not miss. As with any event, we want to help you “plan and prepare” before your guests arrive. Refer to the following tips to help make your Vemma Bod·ē Party a success, right from the start. People will see that hosting a Vemma Bod·ē Party is worth duplicating!
Invite Your Guests • Reach out to your contacts via email or social media and phone to send them an invitation to your Vemma Bod·ē Party. We recommend scheduling your party on a Tuesday or Thursday evening around 7 p.m. Please ask your guests to arrive 15–25 minutes before the meeting begins. • Sending an email with “Before and After”** pictures that tell an incredible personal weight loss story is a powerful way to catch the attention of your potential guests. You can also text your guests the Chris Powell Bod·ē Party invitation video. • Set a goal. How many people do you want at your Vemma Bod·ē Party? It’s important to over-invite. Expect about 50 percent of the people you invite to attend your party. For example, if you would like to have a minimum of five guests, plan to have at least 10 guests confirmed prior to your event. • Consider potential disruptions in advance. The night should be free from distractions, such as children interrupting or cell phones ringing.
How to Invite • The invitation process is very important and plays a pivotal role in the success of your event. By gathering people together to hear about the Vemma Bod·ē Plan and opportunity, you’re able to share your experience and your enthusiasm. Your excitement should pique the interest of your prospects. Here’s an example of what you might say when inviting a friend to a Vemma Bod·ē Party. “Hello _____, this is _____ calling. Most people I know have two goals: finding a healthy weight loss program and improving their financial situation. I don’t know if you are interested in either, but we’re getting together next Tuesday with a few friends for about 45 minutes at 7:00 p.m. We’ll be introducing this amazing Bod·ē transformation that we’re working on. It’s going to be so much fun! I hope you’ll join us.” • Send your prospects “Before and After”** pictures that show real results. Invite them to find out how the results were achieved. “Hello, would you like to hear how my friend ____________________ did this?” ** Results not typical, you may not do as well. Pilot study conducted by Vemma Europe showed that 60 participants who followed the Vemma Bod•ē Transformation Plan for 12 weeks lost an average of 8 kilograms. Not all participants will complete the plan, or accurately follow the directions and guidelines of the plan. Vemma Nutrition Company recommends you follow a healthy approach to weight loss by consulting with your physician or healthcare provider before starting any new exercise, diet plan, nutrition or supplementation program, particularly if you suffer from any medical condition or regularly use prescription or over-the-counter medications. The Vemma Bod•ē products as part of the Vemma Bod•ē 12-Week Transformation Plan should be used in conjunction with a healthy diet and 10 minutes of daily exercise.
Vemma Action Plan

Confirm a Few Days before Your Vemma Bod·ē Party • For guests attending your Vemma Bod·ē Party, remind them and confirm 1–3 days before your event. Things do come up at the last minute and people may forget. • Call, leave a message or text them with a friendly reminder that you’re looking forward to meeting them at your Vemma Bod·ē Party on (day) and (time).
Set up Your Vemma Bod·ē Party — Keep it Simple • Pick a location you feel comfortable in and will accommodate the number of guests attending, such as a living room, home office, clubhouse, etc. A neat, clean environment is best. • Set up early. Arrange seating and set up slightly less chairs than the number of guests expected. You can set up more chairs if needed, but you don’t want to have empty seats. • Play some low, appropriate music and burn a scented candle as guests arrive. Turn off the music once the presentation begins and turn it back on immediately during breaks and following the meeting. • Set up a simple display of Vemma Bod·ē products and make sure you have enough on hand for guests to taste and take home. • Offer snacks to your guests that are based on the Vemma Bod·ē Plan such as a delicious snack tray with almonds or pistachios, rolled turkey and cheese, and fruits and veggies. This can be a great opportunity to show your guests how delicious the foods will be when they begin their own Vemma Bod·ē Plan. Keep it simple and professional; duplication is the key. • Have a video presentation ready. We recommend the Transform Your Life video (play each section separately with a small break in between for discussion on the concept, product and business). • Be prepared to talk to your guests about the importance of purchasing a Vemma Bod·ē Builder Pack. A Silver Bod·ē Builder Pack will qualify new Brand Partners for the Vemma Platinum Club program, includes two four-week Transformation Packs and includes the critical Success Kit information. Soon they’ll be in business for themselves! • Prepare registration forms for people to supply their information on the spot, so you may refer to it later for follow-up and placement strategy. • Decide on the date for your next Vemma Bod·ē Party and create flyers with the details. • Print out copies of the flyer and pass them out at the end of your Vemma Bod·ē Party.
Start the Party on Time — Have Fun • Even if guests are running late, start your meeting at the scheduled time and cater to the guests who arrive on time. • Introduce yourself, welcome your guests and briefly describe the purpose of the get together. • Introduce the speaker for the evening (your Upline Success Coach) and let him or her lead the presentation to help your guests make a well-informed decision to be a part of your Vemma team. This may also be done by speakerphone if necessary.

• Play the first section Vemma Transform Your Life video. • Offer Vemma Bod·ē Plan testimonials. Make sure you and your Upline Success Coach are prepared to share your stories and explain why you’re excited! • Play the second section of the video, Transform Your Body. • Let your guests know about the Vemma Bod·ē products and any promotions that are happening. Sample and taste. • Play the last section of the video, Transform Your Finances. • Give a brief overview of the Compensation Plan or share your excitement about the business model. Share enrollment options. • Encourage your prospects to sign up by purchasing a Vemma Bod·ē Builder Pack. The Silver Bod·ē Builder Pack includes enough product to get a new Brand Partner started on their own Bod·ē transformation and it also provides them with extra product to sample. Even better, this pack puts new Brand Partners in business for themselves and qualifies them for the Vemma Platinum Club Car Program! • Pass around the products for your guests to sample and enjoy. • Mingle and have fun!
After Your Vemma Bod·ē Party • Be available at the end of the evening to answer questions from individual guests. • Make sure you listen, listen, listen! • Take product orders and set up Auto-delivery orders. Have a few Bod·ē Packs on hand for people that want to leave with product. • Hand out the support material, product info and maybe even the Your First 7 Days: Making the Shift 2-CD set to those that get excited about the business opportunity. • Follow up, lead by example and duplicate! Help new Brand Partners schedule their own Vemma Bod·ē Party.
How to set up your first Home Event Extend Invitations • The invitation process is very important and it plays a pivotal role in the success of your event. Do this important step the right way, and everything else will be easy! Use some of the following key phrases to invite guests to your event: “Hello ___, this is ____ calling.” “I understand you’re a good friend of ____...” “If you recall, we spoke about a week ago...” “Is this a convenient time for you to talk?”
Scan our QR Code with your smart phone to watch a video clip.

“Do me a favor…” “I want your feedback/opinion; can I count on you?” “If something comes up, please call me ASAP so I can fill your seat!” “I understand, but before I go, may I ask you one question? If you could improve any aspect of your personal or financial situation, what would it be?”
Plan Your Gathering • Reach out to your top contacts via email and phone. • Consider scheduling the Home Event on a Tuesday or Thursday evening at around 7 p.m., when most people don’t have social events or other conflicts. • Remind your guests to arrive 15–25 minutes before the meeting begins. • Arrange to have one of your Upline Success Coaches attend your event, so he or she may share his or her experience with the group. • Set a goal. How many people do you want at your Home Event? You can expect a 50-percent show ratio. So plan accordingly! If you want to have a minimum of five guests, then you need to have at least 10 guests confirmed prior to the event. The more people you invite, the better chance of getting a bigger turnout. • Decide if you will have accommodations for people who need to bring their kids. The night should be free from distractions, such as children interrupting or cell phones ringing. Saying you’re setting up a movie in another room or hiring a babysitter to keep an eye on the little ones will eliminate a common excuse for not attending.
Confirm a Few Days Before • Remind your invited guests about the Home Event, and confirm 1 to 3 days before your event. Life gets hectic, and people may forget. Call or leave a message with a friendly reminder that you’re looking forward to seeing or meeting them at your Vemma Home Event on (day) and (time).
Setting Up • Pick a location you feel comfortable in and that will accommodate the number of guests attending, such as a living room, home office, clubhouse, etc. • Remember to tidy up the location and spot clean if necessary. • Set up early. Arrange seating and prepare for slightly fewer guests than expected. You can set up more chairs if needed, but you don’t want to have empty seats! • Play some low, pleasant music and burn a scented candle as guests arrive. (Turn off the music once the presentation begins and turn it back on immediately following the meeting as guests leave). • Set up a simple display of chilled products. Make sure you have enough Vemma products on hand for guests to taste and take home as a sample. • If you would like to provide snacks, keep it simple, such as chips, pretzels, grapes, cheese, etc. If you want to provide beverages, offer water or iced tea — no alcohol. Keep it simple and professional).

Starting the Event • Even if guests are running late, start your meeting at the scheduled time and cater to the guests who arrive on time. • Introduce yourself, welcome your guests and briefly describe the purpose of the get-together. • Introduce the speaker for the evening (your Upline Success Coach) and let him or her lead the presentation to help your guests make a well-informed decision to be part of your Vemma team. • Play a Vemma DVD. • Talk about product testimonials; avoid making any health or medical claims. • Give a brief overview of the Compensation Plan. • Pass around the products for your guests to sample and enjoy.
After Your Vemma Home Event • Be available at the end of the evening to answer questions from individual guests. Make sure you listen, listen, listen! • Take product orders and set up Auto-delivery orders. • Hand out the Vemma Action Plan: Guide to Personal Success and the Your First 7 Days: Making the Shift 2-CD set to new Brand Partners. • Follow up, lead by example and duplicate!

Keep your business simple and recognize that you will build a team where everyone does a little bit. Through time and duplication, amazing things will happen. Build something extraordinary together!
