August-October Distributor Recognition

in this issue The statements contained in this material have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. The personal testimonials shared reflect individual experiences of Independent Relìv Distributors and are not necessarily typical of the results you may obtain. Relìv products are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. As with any independent business, success as a Relìv Distributor requires a significant amount of hard work and dedication. The individuals featured in this material offer a glimpse into the lifestyle and economic benefits they are enjoying through the Relìv opportunity as a result of their own skills and personal effort. These stories are examples only and are not intended as averages or guarantees.


Dear Distributor Like so many of you, this time of year is always a time for me to reflect, both personally and professionally, on the past 12 months and really start focusing on the year ahead. As my dad always taught me growing up, goal setting is vital to success. The coming of the New Year is the perfect opportunity to evaluate current goals and to set new ones. Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about my folks, Bob and Sandy, who just spent much of the fall traveling for Relìv, especially in the Asia Pacific region. They attended National Conferences in Australia and the Philippines, in addition to meetings in the other countries in which Relìv operates. It impresses me that after 22 years, they still have the desire to make such long trips and commit so much of their time. After 22 years, there is no getting tired, there is no sitting back, and there is no taking it easy. Why do they keep going? They do it because there are still people who need to know about Relìv! And they’re not alone. I think about Dr. Carl still searching scientific journals for the latest research, finding new ingredients and creating new products. And I think about those passionate Relìv business owners who still approach every day like they did when they first started — as an opportunity to introduce more people to Relìv. They are all still committed to the same goal: to Nourish Our World. And the only way to make it happen is to make sure the world knows we’re here.

Scott Montgomery Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer

You are a Relìv Distributor, which means you are a business owner. What are your business and personal goals for next year? To lead a more active, healthy lifestyle and help people you know do the same? To create a lifestyle and freedom for your family and offer the same opportunity to others? To help the Relìv Kalogris Foundation feed more people in need? To Nourish Our World in body, mind and spirit? If you answered yes to any of these questions, your task is simple: tell more people about Relìv. Find them, sponsor them and get them involved! If you’re a new Relìv business owner, you can do this — thousands of others have. If you have been part of Relìv for 10, 15 or even 20 years, just follow the lead of Bob, Sandy and Dr. Carl. Keep working and sharing with others what you have found. We want to reach our goal, which helps you reach yours. I believe Relìv is truly a gift that we have been given. Now let’s take that gift and share it with the world!

California Relìv Rush! New Distributors flocking to Relìv in this booming state

Already well-known for the Gold Rush, California is earning notoriety once again as a booming state. But this time, people aren’t rushing for gold; they’re rushing to join Relìv! “Excitement in California is at an alltime high,” Senior Vice President of North American Sales Steve Hastings says. “Distributors are using the Relìv Success System exactly the way it was intended. While California has been a booming state for a while now, Distributors there are bringing in even more prospects now that recent Relìv events have given them some added momentum!” In the month following the 2010 International Conference, Californians sponsored nearly 100 new Distributors. California ranks as Relìv’s top sponsoring state in the US. In fact, California has maintained its rank of number one in sponsoring every month over the past two years. With nearly 4,200 active Distributors, California has more than any other state. While all the California Distributors have slightly different approaches to building their businesses, one thing is certain: It’s working!

Bronze Ambassador Julie Moeller Brentwood, CA “There are so many reasons for our continued growth in California and beyond. Our baby boomers are coming to a point where they realize they must take control of their health and finances. When they find Relìv, they see a way to do just that — an opportunity for the freedom that everyone wants. I am so excited about the future of my business. What I love most is the excellent health and lifestyle we have experienced as a family. We are fueling our active lifestyles with the best nutrition possible. Thanks to Relìv, we are living life to the fullest in body, mind and spirit!” Bonus Material: Visit the Business Builders Blog for an entry from Julie on how to “Prioritize Your Prospect List.”

Key Directors Richard and Celese Robinson Tracy, CA “If it weren’t for the Ambassador leaders in California, we would not be where we are today. There has really been a positive boost in the attitude out here in the past few months and people are really focused on helping each other across organizations. Our success has come from a relationship-building approach to the business. We focus on trying to get to know people and figure out how we can help, not just selling them a can of product. When we talk about Relìv, we are more passionate than ever. Most people in California have a long commute, often spending hours in the car each day. We’ve decided that our family deserves a better lifestyle and we know that no other company can give us the freedom and the financial stability that Relìv can.”

Key Directors Dennis and Jeani Matsuoka Morgan Hill, CA “People in California are tired of working for other people. We want control over our own lives and to be accountable to ourselves, not someone else. With Relìv, we have the ability to do what we want to do. After being in this business for only a year and a half, we have learned to be bolder when approaching people about Relìv. We know it is really the best thing out there, and we are not hesitant to tell others about it! For people in this region, it is important that Relìv has a ‘heart.’ In other words, the company is really looking out for its Distributors and wants them to succeed. Joining in on phone calls, making in-home presentations and serving as a resource to our downline shows people the heart of Relìv.”

Key Director Rebecca Haddix Valley Springs, CA “I had already started this business a couple of years ago, so when my husband was laid off recently, this was our ‘Plan B’ to replace the retirement funds we lost and leave a legacy for our kids. Without Relìv, we would not be able to work long enough to build a solid retirement. People in California are searching for ways to not have to depend on the corporate world for their livelihood. They’re also interested in preventive health. My business has been successful because I don’t have to choose just one or the other — I can offer them both! We wouldn’t be where we are today if it weren’t for the guidance and teamwork of the Ambassadors here in California. They have helped me through thick and thin, and I continue to learn so much from them.”

California: Land of RelĂŹv Opportunity!

It’s no secret California has one of the highest current unemployment rates in the US and a dire state budget situation. So you might wonder just how Relìv Distributors are managing to experience continued growth and positive momentum in the state. The key, according to California Distributors, is twofold: They use teamwork across organizations to move everyone forward, and they reach out to people who are looking for financial stability in an uncertain time.

“We’ve been with Relìv for more than 18 years, and in the past two to three years, we have been building the business as strongly as ever,” explain Presidential Platinum Ambassadors Linda and Richard Vance. “In California, we’re a very hard-working group, but we haven’t even scratched the surface of the opportunity here. We’ve continued to see growth despite the recession.”

An Opportunity Anyone Can See The Vances and other California Distributors look at the recession not as a negative, but as an opportunity to reach out to individuals who might have given up on finding a job in this economy. “With the high unemployment here in California, many people are taking a closer look at home-based business opportunities,” they explain. Distributors in this state have seen their businesses grow deeper and wider by simply presenting Relìv as a viable alternative to someone’s current dead-end job search. They pose this question to unemployed prospects: “Why continue to apply to work for someone else when you can work for yourself and take control of your own finances?” The benefits of a Relìv business are just as appealing now as they were when Presidential Ambassador Norma Carlozzi first joined Relìv — and in many ways even more so. “This is a dream come true for most people. That’s the beauty of this business strategy,” she explains. “Relìv gives me the balance and ability to set my own priorities. That’s a lifestyle people are looking for, especially those who have been disappointed in the current job market.” Even individuals who haven’t had an employment challenge can see the benefits of a business like Relìv. Many individuals are simply looking for a better work-life balance, and Relìv is an opportunity for these people to pursue a lifestyle with more freedom.

Teamwork Is the Key “Among the California Distributors, there is a sense of strong teamwork,” notes Presidential Silver Ambassador Nick Priest. “People work together to help everyone succeed. It isn’t uncommon for several different organizations to come together to do an in-home presentation.” The sense of camaraderie and willingness to help each other has made the California region very interconnected. “There really is tremendous teamwork across lines,” Norma says. “In the Bay Area region, we all come together for opportunity meetings and

trainings to celebrate success and move our businesses forward. And lifting people up is the Relìv way.”

How Are California Distributors Making It Happen? Organizations across the country can incorporate these simple tactics to move their businesses forward too!

Make Saturdays Super Saturday meetings begin with basic training followed by a break, and then a special training topic that changes each Saturday. The Vances have incorporated some practical training modules that people can put to use right away. “We provide regular Saturday morning training workshops on a variety of practical topics such as ‘How to bring customers to the MA level’, ‘Goal-setting and planning’ or ‘How to approach the cold market,’” Linda says.

Follow the Fast Start Guide “The Fast Start Guide not only makes it easy for Distributors to get started right away, it also provides a great basis for training,” says Norma. Going through the guide step by step with a new sign-up (or a large group of them) shows them how simple and easy the Relìv business really is. The guide serves as both a teaching tool and a workbook to get new Distributors moving forward right away.

Create Visuals That Inspire The Relìv promotions are a great way to give Distributors a goal to reach toward as they build their business. California Distributors keep promotions top of mind by handing out flyers at meetings and using engaging signage and banners to catch people’s attention. “We always have large banners on display in front as people walk in, so they can see the upcoming promotions right away,” explains Richard.

“One key to the success of the Hispanic market in California has been the open communication encouraged between Ambassadors in the US and in Mexico,” US Hispanic Sales Director and Mexico Sales and Marketing Director Javier Ramirez says. “The exchange has been an unlimited resource to sustain and grow both markets.”

“Our Hispanic Distributors in California have earned many Dr. Ted Plaques, Humanitarian Awards, cash bonuses and promotional awards,” Javier concludes. “I think they are committed to keeping the number one title for a while!”

California was one of the original Hispanic markets in the US, and now accounts for nearly half of this growing segment of Distributors. Many of the Hispanic Distributors are stay-at-home moms who build their businesses while taking care of their children. A familyoriented business like Relìv is perfect for their lifestyle.

“While we originally became Distributors just so that we could get a discount on the products, we have found a business that provides us a more flexible schedule to spend time with each other. We attend meetings together and do the presentations together too. My keys to success are talking to everyone I encounter on a daily basis and sharing Relìv. I’m like a ‘walking testimonial’ because whenever people hear my story, they become instantly interested in what Relìv could do for them. I also keep in constant communication with my whole organization and work in groups whenever possible. Relìv is the best thing to ever happen to us!”

“The pioneer Hispanic Relìv system began in San Jose and has been active for a decade. They’ve been teachable since the beginning and they have put their knowledge into practice,” Javier explains. “The first Ambassadors in the Hispanic market are still active in California. They are visionaries who understand the importance of ownership and the best use of time.

Directors Maria and Uriel Salgado of San Jose, CA


Hola, California! US Hispanic Distributors are seeing success in California like never before. Relìv continues to be the perfect opportunity to reach both English and Spanish-speaking prospects who are looking for a product or business opportunity.

Key Directors Amparo and Jorge Marles of Antioch, CA “I was looking for a part-time business opportunity, and just wasn’t getting the support I needed in other companies. Once I attended a Relìv meeting, I joined right away. I’ve noticed that people of retirement age are looking for financial options in this economy. And Relìv has the answer! The best ways to succeed in this business are to attend conferences and follow up constantly. Conferences are worth the sacrifice it takes to attend, and I have seen people get a huge jump in their business as a result. Also, follow up with everyone you meet. If you don’t follow up, the opportunity just falls apart. There have been many times when I could have been discouraged, but I just keep on going! Ambassador level here we come!” Senior Director Esperanza Duarte of San Jose, CA “I have always been business-oriented, and when I found Relìv, I knew it could be very profitable. I am a social person, so this business fits my personality perfectly. Relìv is the ‘complete package’ because it is a proven business that works and also suits my lifestyle. I see enormous growth potential and I can’t wait to

continue my success. One of my goals is to eventually work Relìv full-time and become an Ambassador. And with the system we have in place in California, I know I can do it!” Ambassadors Alicia and Gustavo Gutierrez of San Jose, CA “I love being able to help people and also earn money at the same time. Ten years ago, when I became a Distributor, I only had one grandchild. Now, I have six of them, and all the freedom in the world to spend time with them! One of the things I am proudest of is the fact that this business is so family-oriented. I also admire the work of the Relìv Kalogris Foundation. My approach is to always talk about both the products and the business opportunity. You never know who might be interested in one and not the other. Relìv provides the right tools and upline support, so you have no limit to your success!”

“Our favorite activity was riding the ATVs — an absolute blast! But the best part of the trip was the chance to spend time with other Distributors and corporate staff. We got to know some of the more experienced Distributors better. There is always something new to learn from them, even on a trip like this! We also really appreciated the time that the corporate staff spent with us. It makes a real difference to know they are so approachable and care so much about us.” Ambassadors Florence and Elo Sauder, Wallenstein, ON

“We visited several of the towns, hiked the trails near our lodge and ate a delicious fish dinner caught by Dave and Betty Blazic and their fishing group! We really enjoyed the cruise on the lake, the live band and a sing along on one night! We were made to feel very special and the lifetime friendships we made are priceless. Plus, we enjoyed the gorgeous scenery and relaxing atmosphere. We are working very hard to earn the Los Cabos trip for ourselves and our organization. We can’t wait!” Ambassadors Marcia and Earl Jantz, Edmond, OK

Become the New You During this season of festive foods, overindulgence and hibernation, we can’t help but think about that New Year’s weight loss resolution we make each year. Don’t put off your fitness goals — start losing weight today with Slimplicity®!

What Makes Slimplicity So Effective? Slimplicity works because the ingredients are formulated to work together synergistically to address weight loss. “Not only does Slimplicity keep you satisfied with 10 grams of healthy soy protein per shake — it also provides an optimal range of vitamins and minerals for added nutritional support,” Vice Chairman and Chief Scientific Officer Dr. Carl Hastings explains. “The meal replacement shake is a unique blend of ingredients clinically shown to support weight loss,” he notes. “For example, L-carnitine burns fat and builds lean muscle to help reshape your body and add more definition, while patented Advantra Z® supports fat burning with exercise and increases your metabolism. “And when you incorporate Slimplicity Accelerator Capsules into your regimen, you’re adding the most advanced ingredients to satisfy hunger, boost metabolism and burn and block fat,” Dr. Carl adds. “It’s the ultimate 1-2 nutritional punch for healthy and lasting weight loss.” 12

Be a ‘Product of the Product’ Losing weight will catch people’s attention, and it will naturally make them curious. When they start asking, “How did you lose the weight?” Distributors have the perfect opportunity to tell them about Slimplicity — and get them started on the products too. These Relìv Distributors are using Slimplicity to transform their bodies — and build their businesses. They will be hardly recognizable by the time you see them at National Conference in Atlanta! o Key Director Debbi Grenz of Albany, OR: “I started gaining weight in the last few years, and I tried a variety of diets, but nothing seemed to work. At the beginning of September, with my weight continuing to climb, I started the Slimplicity weight loss program. By October, I had lost 13 pounds and I was feeling great! My goal is to lose 40 more pounds before National Conference in Atlanta and I know I can do it with the help of Slimplicity!”


Cold Weather Exercise Tips from Team Relìv: Don’t spend the winter hibernating under a Snuggie with a cup of hot cocoa. Now is the time to get off the couch! Sign up for the Team Relìv Exercise Club and get moving! 1. Join a gym. Many gyms offer special rates on membership and personal training at the beginning of the year. Some even offer free trial periods. So you can get started on your resolution to hit the cardio circuit and it won’t break your budget. 2. Get outside. Ice skating and skiing can burn up to 200 calories per hour, while shoveling snow burns up to 400 calories per hour. Sledding down a hill is fun, but running back up that hill burns up to 300 calories an hour. Plus, your body works harder to stay warm in the winter. So, a walk

through the snow is going to burn more calories than a walk on a spring day. 3. Make your own workout studio. Winter is ideal for a DVD workout regimen. Get a couple of dumbbells and a mat, and you’ve got everything you need for an intense workout right in your living room. 4. Shop the deals. You’re probably exhausted from all the holiday shopping, but it’s worth checking out the athletic supply stores. Often, the previous year’s models of treadmills, ellipticals and stationary bikes go on sale to make room for the new models. You can get a great machine for a nice discount.

This New Year o Director Bob Niles of Lantana, FL: “Losing weight has been a constant battle, but after the 2010 International Conference, I was inspired to join the Team Relìv Exercise Club. I have a goal to lose 120 pounds before the next International Conference, which means to be on track I need to lose 50 more pounds by National Conference in February. So far, I have lost a total of 33 pounds since using Slimplicity and participating in the Exercise Club!”

Director Shannon Tayloe of Owensville, MO: “Using Slimplicity, I have lost three inches off of my waist and three inches off of my hips! By sharing my progress on Facebook, it keeps me accountable to 700 friends. I have received a lot of interest from people who have seen my results. When I tell them about Slimplicity, they usually want to learn more or try it themselves. It is the best form of advertising!”

o

Key Director Sherry Schuler of Frankfort, IN: “I have been using Relìv’s Slimplicity system including exercise, but I really stepped up my workouts for the Team Relìv Exercise Club. I have also just started adding Pilates. I can already feel the inches coming off! I have lost 30 pounds so far and my goal is to lose another 20-30 pounds before National Conference in Atlanta. I have had several people ask me what I have done to lose weight and have had one start on the weight loss system because of my results!”

o

The weight loss testimonials presented are applicable to the individuals depicted and are not a guarantee of your weight loss. These results are not typical. Individual results will vary. As with any health or fitness program, a sensible eating plan and regular exercise are required in order to achieve long-term weight loss results. It is suggested that you take these products to your physician and secure his or her advice before embarking on any exercise or weight loss program.

Relìv Your Life Take control of your health and financial future


there’s a place for you at relìv

Since its founding in 1988, Relìv has been in the business of changing lives. That can mean different things to different people — better health, better finances, self-improvement, meaningful work… or all of the above. That’s why Relìv is designed to be flexible, to meet people where they are. “Relìv’s mission is to Nourish Our World in body, mind and spirit,” explains Chairman, President and CEO Robert L. Montgomery. “For some people we provide products for optimal health. Others also pursue our business opportunity part-time to help make ends meet and create

a little piece of mind. And still others embrace everything that Relìv offers and commit themselves to helping others discover the same personal freedom and purpose. We welcome them all.” Bob adds that this inclusiveness is one of the great strengths of the company. “People can rest assured Relìv has a place for them,” he says. “Combined with the quality of our products and the integrity of our business model, it means that no matter how you get started with Relìv, your life will be improved as a result.

“By working just 4-5 hours a week, I’m able to provide my entire family with optimal nutrition and make some extra spending money. If I can do this around my crazy schedule as a mother of seven, anyone can.” — Suzy Chesna of Oak Lawn, Illinois

“Between work and raising our kids, we didn’t think we had time for a new business. But Relìv fits into the nooks and crannies of your life. Just five years in, we’re making a full-time income working part-time and have earned bonuses and trips around the world! The best part is the freedom to prioritize our life and choose how we spend our time.” — Gary & Laura Lynn Martin of

St. Clements, Ontario

“As a pastor for 45 years, I had no hope for retirement beyond Social Security. I tried a few other network marketing opportunities, but never found products that worked or people willing to help like I found at Relìv. Four years later, I’m making a good living by doing what I love — helping people. The future looks a whole lot brighter!” — Dr. Manley Lane of Bath, Maine

“When the recession hit in 2008, layoffs at work meant we needed a safety net. Six months after launching our Relìv business, I was laid off too. Relìv was there for us then and continues to be. We’ve made as much as $8,500 a month, which included a bonus, and the work I’m doing now is far more rewarding than anything I accomplished in the corporate world.” — Crismon Lewis of Gresham, Oregon


Qa &

with Carla Pence

How did you first learn about Relìv?

a: My husband, Quinn, was a cattleman, so he had worked with nutrition in animals and understood the benefits of supplementation. He wanted to apply the same principles to improve the health of our family. What attracted him to Relìv in particular was the completeness of the formulas — all the nutrition you need in one shake. So we started on the products at the end of 2001.

What kind of results did you experience? a: The whole family — Quinn and I and our four sons — all experienced great results. More energy, help with allergies and a variety of other benefits. I personally experienced relief from hormonal imbalances and all the problems that come along with that. More than anything, we just felt better.

How did you decide to launch a Relìv business? a: I didn’t want anything to do with the business at first. We had been involved with six other network marketing companies previously and had been burned by the last one. And as a nurse with a business degree, I could just not see myself doing it. Quinn and I argued about it for three weeks. I said we couldn’t afford to do it. He said we couldn’t afford not to — based on the improved health of our family alone. So we looked at the compensation plan one more time, and I realized I had never seen that big of a payout in all of my network marketing experience. Our

sponsors explained the benefits of Master Affiliate, the highest profit level. The more we thought about it, the more we knew that’s where we wanted to be. We became MAs in January 2002.

When did you start to see the full potential of the Relìv opportunity? a: Even though we were MAs, I was still not looking at it as a real business. I was doing it very part-time initially, but kept thinking of more and more people who I knew could use these products. By following the Relìv Success System, things started to happen. Before I knew it, I had sponsored a friend as an MA and was beginning to build an organization. The light bulb finally came on in June 2002. I know when I don’t know how to do something and will freely admit it, but that was when I said to myself, “I can do this!” I got to work just sharing Relìv with more people and finished as the top Distributor in the nation that month. When you include all bonuses, I earned $12,000! We had a farm note due at the bank and were able to pay it off in cash! But my favorite moment came with my son. Before Relìv, a limited grocery budget meant we usually couldn’t afford juice. I’ll never forget the excitement in his voice when he told his brothers, “Guess what? Mom bought juice and we can drink all we want!”

How did you turn the opportunity into a career? a: I committed myself to Relìv with a goal to make $5,000 per month in five years time. I may have had an incredible June 2002, but I understood that Relìv was a process and not a get-rich-quick scheme. My sponsor told me, “You are going to hit crossroads in your journey. If you always turn to Relìv, you’ll never regret your decision.” I followed her advice, reached my goal and continue to reach bigger goals today. As you build toward that long-term goal, Relìv provides the means to live a full life and raise a family along the way. With Relìv we always had money for clothing, vacations and the like, plus emergencies and whatever else life would throw at us.

What do you tell those people who say ‘Relìv is not for me’? a: People don’t like to feel uneducated. That’s why I never try to “sell” Relìv; I just say, “I encourage you to become educated about Relìv, and I’ll be glad to help you with the process.” They’ll discover for themselves where they fit in best. Some people just don’t want to live better. For those who do, Relìv has a place for them.

Carrying Out the Relìv Mission:

Buckheart Ranch

For at-risk teens, Buckheart provides hope, Relìv provides nutrition

Buckheart Ranch in San Diego, CA, is the most recent beneficiary of the Relìv Kalogris Foundation. The ranch takes a variety of approaches to transform the lives of at-risk youth. “We use the experience of mentors to influence and train youth to be successful physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually,” say Relìv Directors Chuck and Julie Dilts, owners of Buckheart Ranch.

A Passion for Youth Ministry With a passion to serve youth and 27 acres, the Dilts wondered how they could make a difference. When a desperate mom contacted them, the Dilts brought the boy to live at the ranch and finish his schooling. “Our son Jonny is a different person since being mentored at Buckheart ranch. He has a positive attitude and is much stronger in body and spirit. He is more sensitive, respectful and generous in helping out at home,” the boy’s father explains.

After seeing Jonny’s tremendous turnaround, another mother called. Word spread, and seven years later, Buckheart Ranch is a non-profit ministry and school where many boys have found healing and a new way of life. As more boys came, so did more workers, teachers and mentors, who have helped nearly 30 boys turn their lives around. “Some of these boys have histories of abuse, depression, drug addiction, violence and dropping out of school. Through classes and a variety of chores, they learn the value of hard work and gain a passion for life,” says Julie. “We know we’re making a difference when we see a boy transform from being suicidal to having hope for his future. We try to show them the love of God and use the Bible to train them in godly character.”

Programs That Teach Life Skills When the boys arrive, the Dilts determine where they are in their education. It’s a priority that they understand and are able to practice in real life what they learn in the classroom.


The vocational program teaches career skills including landscaping, gardening, carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, food service and maintenance. They learn how to use farm equipment, raise chickens and care for an orchard. The active, hands-on work gives them a sense of responsibility and accomplishment. In addition to the education the Dilts provide, several volunteers also come to the ranch to teach the boys various skills. “In our activities we provide an environment of trust and respect, where young people can share their dreams, struggles and goals,” say the Dilts.

Nourishing Body, Mind and Spirit Through monthly donations of Relìv nutritional products from the Relìv Kalogris Foundation, Buckheart is able to provide nutritious shakes for the residents of the program. Between the program and the nutritious shakes, Buckheart Ranch is truly carrying out Relìv’s mission to nourish body, mind and spirit. “We are so grateful to the Relìv Kalogris Foundation for the donations provided to these boys. We could never afford to provide them with the products otherwise,” Julie says. “The Kalogris Foundation gives us peace of mind that these boys are not only getting the mental, physical and spiritual help they need, they are also getting the best nutrition we can provide. Thank you to all of the Distributors who have made this blessing possible!”

Relìvables: A Whole New Way to Share Relìv

Distributors everywhere are discovering that Relìvables® offer more than great products — they are also a great way to build your business.

o

Ambassador Karen Turner and other Distributors in her area featured Relìvables and the Slimplicity® Weight Loss System in a booth at a recent women’s expo. “We gave away samples of the Relìvables Healthy Snack Bars and the r night moisture + RA7,” she explains. “At something like a women’s expo, people aren’t as ready to talk about nutrition as they are skincare. We wound up getting 150 leads!”

o

Although skincare provided the opportunity, following up with the leads led to interest in Relìv’s nutrition products and business opportunity. “We’re still working our way through all those leads, but we’ve already added around 20 customers, 20 Distributors and a new Master Affiliate,” Karen adds. “Relìvables are just a great way to get the Relìv name in front of people,” she continues. “I host events at my home to share the skincare and other Relìvables products. Many of my guests are people I’ve already approached about Relìv. And as it works with our nutrition products, once people try Relìvables and get results, they tell other people and it just grows from there.”

If new people are reluctant to purchase the entire women’s r collection at first, suggest starting with r night or r body.

Most everyone uses some sort of cleanser and moisturizer. Ask them if they’d be interested in switching to a superior product. Approach women about the men’s products — 83% of women in the U.S. make all household purchases, including products for the men in their lives.

o

For third-party validation, share the interviews with skincare experts Jennifer Cherry and Dr. Frank Schonlau now available on the women’s personal care page of relivables.com.

o

If you have questions about the products, ingredients or what makes Relìvables different, or would like a skincare expert to join your group on a conference call, email Kari Montgomery at kmontgomery@relivinc.com.

o

Sweeten the Season Incorporate Relìvables All-Natural Sweetener into your holiday treats this year. Not only will you cut down on calories, you’ll have more opportunities to share Relìv when people ask, “What’s your recipe?”

Tips for sharing Relìvables r skincare products: You’re not a chemist or dermatologist, so don’t get hung up on the science — just share your story and the benefits of the products.

o

When you tell your Relìv health story, tell your Relìvables skincare story too.

o

Re-visit those who initially said “no” to Relìv’s core nutrition products and see if they have an interest in skincare. Once they see results, they might want to start taking our shakes too.

o

Customers who are already getting great results with Relìv nutrition might be interested in trying our skincare as well. Ask them.

Relìv has improved our health and given us something we can do together Key Directors Sally and Terry Cover from Bedford, PA, didn’t set out to start a business when Sally’s sister introduced them to Relìv.

relìvin’

“When we signed up as Distributors, we were looking for a discount on the products we wanted for ourselves,” Sally explains. Terry, who runs a successful logging export business, drank his shakes at work. Pretty soon, employees were asking him what he was drinking. “Before we knew it, we had people who wanted to try Relìv,” Sally says. The business took off as the Covers shared Relìv with coworkers, family and friends. “We attended our first International Conference in 2010, and were so impressed by the people and the company,” Terry says. The couple used conference to take their business to the next level, sponsoring 16 Distributors in the two months following! “Our goal is to sponsor 25 by the end of 2010,” Terry explains. The Covers currently run their business part-time. “My goal is to retire from my logging business in two years and focus on Relìv,” Terry says. “Relìv has improved our health and given us something we can do together as a couple. I have the best partner!”

‘The Hope is Real!’ Six-Star Director Elisa Petree of Arden, NC, became a Distributor 11 years ago to get discounted products for her family. When the real estate industry fell through, Elisa and her husband Tim, a general contractor, lost their building business. Elisa had attended Opportunity Meetings, but says it “never clicked” until she needed the income. “Turning to Relìv as a business was a no-brainer. The funds helped out significantly because they paid for the products my family consumes,” says Elisa. “Despite the extreme stress, my family was able to stay healthy and have a sense of well-being.” The Relìv business was the perfect way for Elisa to work part-time and bring in some much-needed funds. “My first month as a Master Affiliate, I earned a sponsoring bonus and in total income made $1,400! That gave me a shot of hope!” Elisa has continued with her Relìv business part-time since September 2007, and Tim now has a commercial sales job. They are slowly getting back into financial stability, and Relìv has been there the whole way. Elisa adds, “Relìv has facilitated a lot of personal growth and I’ve become a better leader.” Elisa advises, “This business can be anything you want it to be. Don’t ever give up. The hope is real!”

I couldn’t have done it without Relìv Senior Affiliate Will Sandoval of Budd Lake, NJ, has been using Relìv products for his active lifestyle for over four years. As a Tae Kwon Do instructor, Will has to keep in top physical shape — and Relìv nutrition helps him do just that. “I’m an athlete, so I have to get the right nutrition in order to keep my strength and my performance level up,” Will explains. “Before Relìv, I was always sore after an intense workout, but now I hardly ever feel sore or stiff. As time goes on, I just continue to get great results.” Will also credits optimal nutrition with helping him rebuild his range of motion after breaking his leg. “Relìv kept me energized and healthy, and in just six months, I was able to build up my strength enough to start teaching Tae Kwon Do again,” Will says. Recently, Will started a running routine for the first time. His goal is to be able to complete a path his father used to run. “My goal is to work up to the full distance in a year. I’m up to two miles a day now! I couldn’t have done it without Relìv.” Just as Will’s father showed him the value of good health, Will shares it with his own son today. “I’m glad I can give him Relìv Now® for Kids. Relìv has always been there for me, and it will always be there for him too.”

I feel 20 years younger! When Master Affiliate Flo Demetrio of Chelsea, MA, began using Relìv essential nutrition products last year, she had an unexpected positive side effect — a 31-pound weight loss! “I lost weight because my body was getting nutrition, so I had fewer cravings for unhealthy foods,” Flo explains. “It was surprising because I wasn’t dieting. I was just more satisfied nutritionally. And the longer I’m on the products, the better I feel!” Flo says she has also been able to maintain healthy blood pressure and blood sugar levels. Before Relìv, Flo couldn’t walk a block without joint pain and fatigue. After adding Arthaffect® to her essential nutrition, she has a full range of motion. She also has more energy than ever before. “I’m no longer hyperventilating by the time I get to the top of the stairs!” she says. In fact, she feels so much better, she completed the Relìv Kalogris Foundation Walk for the Mission this year. “It was gratifying to walk for the cause, and I owe it to Relìv!” she says. “A year ago, I felt like I was 10 years older,” Flo adds. “I’m a different person today. I feel 20 years younger!”

Without Relìv, I know I couldn’t be the athlete I am today

relìvin’

Master Affiliate Susan Spiegel of Gas City, IN, has been taking Relìv essential nutrition for years to stay healthy. But after adding Relìv’s sports nutrition products she discovered what Relìv could do for her running performance. Susan was surprised by how quickly her muscles recovered after a long run. “It just blows my mind that I can run a long distance and not be sore afterward. Now I can even do an afternoon of yard work after a run,” says Susan, who has run an annual half-marathon for the past 15 years. “After adding ProVantage® and Innergize!® to my training regimen three years ago, I ran my best time ever!” She plans to continue her athletic and healthy lifestyle for years to come. “Veteran runners have warned me that eventually my knees and joints will give out on me,” she says. “But I just tell them, ‘I’ve got something for that too!’ and then let them know about Arthaffect®.” At her annual half-marathon in October, Susan dropped four minutes from her time, finishing fifth in her division of 283. She says, “I felt so good afterward — strong, no aches and pains, and amazing muscle strength and recovery! Without Relìv, I know I couldn’t be the athlete that I am today.”

Relìv gave us our lives back! Master Affiliate David Clarke of Parrish, FL, recently joined a bicycling club, an activity he says he couldn’t do without Relìv. “I started with three miles, then four, working my way up to more than 20!” David says. As miniaturists, David and his wife, Linda, go to art shows across the country and are on the road often. But a year ago, David was feeling so exhausted and unhealthy he couldn’t travel anymore. “I had to stay home while Linda went on the road,” he explains. He could barely ride his bike, and household tasks like mowing the lawn required a nap afterward. While Linda was on the road, she discovered Relìv. “Someone at a miniature show told her about Relìv and gave her the name of a Distributor. After just 10 days on the products, I had a sense of well-being and felt great!” David says. “Two weeks after I started the products, I completed a 28-mile bike ride — and when I got home, I had enough energy to mow the lawn! “With my health back, Linda doesn’t have to take care of as much, so in a lot of ways it has helped her,” David adds. “Now we’re both on the products. Relìv gave us our lives back!”

Team Relìv is healthy for our business Senior Directors Chris and Karin Ederer of Ham Lake, MN, have been using Team Relìv to get themselves and their business healthy! “Team Relìv gives us resources we can share with prospects, like the Facebook page. I appreciate the fitness tips and research,” Chris says. “By documenting my workouts through the Team Relìv Exercise Club, I stay motivated to exercise more than three hours per week. I also set my own goal to do the highest impact activities,” Chris adds. He was able to reach his target weight and build muscle with the help of Relìv. “My friends and family have said things like, ‘Chris, you are really ripped!’ and I know Relìv has made it all possible.” The transformation has made Chris a walking advertisement for Relìv products. “Team Relìv is healthy for our business,” Chris says. When people ask him how he stays fit, it provides the perfect opportunity to tell them about Relìv nutrition. “Recently, a friend of mine whom I hadn’t seen in 30 years, made a comment on how healthy I looked. I told him about Team Relìv, and he said, ‘I want what you’ve got!’”

Now I can take my grandkids to the amusement park! GlucAffect®’s launch two years ago couldn’t have been better timing for Key Director Nedra Smith of Fairfield, CA. Just three days prior, Nedra had been diagnosed with diabetes, a condition that runs in her family. “With my blood sugar unbalanced, I didn’t sleep well and I always had to take naps. I was simply exhausted,” Nedra says. The fatigue made it difficult for Nedra to enjoy her grandkids’ football games or spend a day with them at a local amusement park. Nedra started on GlucAffect right away. “I mixed it with my essential nutrition shakes three times per day. I also mixed it into my tea,” she explains. Within a few months, Nedra’s blood sugar had lowered to the healthy range. “I slept more soundly at night, so I had more energy during the day,” Nedra adds. With the added energy, Nedra was able to start exercising, which led to another benefit: improved cholesterol. “Without GlucAffect, I know my blood sugar problems would have continued as they were,” Nedra concludes. “Instead, my life has been totally changed by these products! Now I can take my grandkids to the amusement park!” 27

Vianey and Eduardo Alarcón Before Relìv, we always worried about how we would pay our bills at the end of the month. But now, we are living a dream… a wonderful dream! We use the entire Relìv Success System. Most recently, we began using the Fast Start Guide, and we love it! We use the 3-way phone calls, videos, and are now doing Special Events outside of our city. We have already won the trip to Los Cabos, Mexico, and are looking forward to winning the Disney Cruise as well. It just keeps getting better with Relìv!

Pedro and Teresa Colima We would not have advanced this quickly had we not relied on the Relìv Success System. We love the 3-way phone calls, Business Builder Calls and Opportunity Meetings. We now help at Special Events and meetings and get to travel. We recently attended the Leadership Celebration at Lake Tahoe and have already won the trip to Los Cabos next year! We are so excited about Relìv that we find ourselves talking about the opportunity to everyone and anyone we meet. We want to share our success and help others to be successful too!

I [Jovita] worked six days a week at a meat processing factory for eight years. I was tired all the time and ready to start something new. Five months after starting our Relìv business, I was able to quit my job and do what I love most: spend quality time with our four grandchildren. What amazes us the most about this business is that you don’t have to have a four-year degree — anyone can do it. You just need to believe in it and go out there and spread the word!

Be sure to access the direct sponsor’s Distributor portal when sponsoring a new person. If you are helping a downline Distributor sponsor a new person online and log into your own portal, the new person will be sponsored directly by you.

If you receive an error message during the online sign-up process, an RCN may have in fact been established. Please call 800 RELIV US (735.4887) and a Distributor Relations representative will be happy to help you.

When completing the paper application, please select a single profit level for your new Distributor. Selecting multiple levels may delay processing.

Distributor Enrollment Packages: Industry statistics show that new Distributors who don’t act in their first few days are far more likely to give up on the business. That’s why new Distributors will now receive an enrollment package with the tools they need to hit the ground running. The enrollment package they receive depends on the level at which they sign up. Distributors entering as a Retail Distributor (20% profit level) will receive a Fast Start Guide. New Affiliates (25% profit level) or above will receive a Business Kit, which includes a Fast Start Guide. Distributors qualifying as Master Affiliates in the month they sign up or the following month receive the MA Brief Bag. To learn more about the new enrollment process, look under “my business” on the online Distributor portal.
