Roll out: eXfuze PROformance: December 2009

We are now receiving eXfuze PROformance.  The taste has changed from PRO to PROformance.  All of us have differing opinions on what it DOES taste like though.  I still seem to taste the pomegranate, but no longer taste the blueberries.  Raspberries now seem to take their place.  Ha.  No one agrees…..  :)

The Super Seven travel paks are being put to good use with our family too.  Anything from a long day to an overnight trip to my trip to Arizona…..the travel paks travel well.

We are 1 month away from the sponsorship contest award.  1st place gets 1 week lodging in Las Vegas or Anaheim.  Playground for the adults or the children.  2nd place is a stay in a Hilton Garden Inn or Hampton Suite, plus your eXfuze University tuition paid.

The new drop shipment program is doing well with us.  I am shipping out the max amount each month.  It makes an easy promotion tool.

Toy Run

We will be at the MMA Toy Run this year.  The Modified Motorcycle Assn are hosting their 33rd annual toy run at the Drive In on Bradshaw, November 29th.  We are a sponsor this year and are proud to support their efforts.

The gates open for bikes at 9am and the run will leave at noon and be back at the drive-in at around 2pm.  There will be live music and food.  In true bike fashion, the party starts on Saturday night at the Holiday night with live music, food and drinks.

We were invited to participate by Lorett at Real Women Ride.  Sounds exciting.  They also have spaces at the Redwood Run and we may show there also.

10th Annual Senior Health Fair

We attended and displayed eXfuze at the 10th annual Senior Event sponsored by “Living Well Radio” and KBFK in Sacramento.  The doors were to open at 9am, but there were people at our booth by 8:45.  The traffic was good and the interest in eXfuze was high.  We had a wonderful time meeting and talking with so many interested people.   Eloise acquired a few preferred customers and we have many people that asked for a copy of the “Journey” DVD.  We have followed up with them with letters, emails and telephone calls.  I expect to get more customers and perhaps a distributer or two from them.

2009 Conference Highlights

In the City of Lights, the eXfuze 2009 Annual Convention began with 'Night with the Stars' as those who have achieved the level of Diamond Elite Director were whisked away from Caesar's Palace. From an all-star photo shoot to stretch limousines, participants arrived at the Eiffel Tower Restaurant at Paris for an elegant evening of dining and entertainment. Following a 5-Star dinner, the Diamonds were escorted to a private lounge for a personal Dennis DeYoung concert and autograph session. It was a magical night to be aspired to by all who want to achieve the prestigious rank of Diamond. Each year, qualifying Diamond's will be treated to the best of the best, and we want YOU there with us next time.

To kick off the eXfuze opportunity on Thursday evening, Eddie Freeman shared the most powerful opportunity in the world to a room of distributors and prospects alike. It was standing room only as Eddie energized, informed, shared, and entertained. Prospects joined and distributors re-committed.

Rick Cotton, Don Cotton and Steve Campbell set the stage for an informational packed conference, rallying the distributors, inspiring, and motivating.

Rick Cotton, CEO & Founder, started by introducing our conference theme, "IT'S TIME TO LEAD." Now more than ever when businesses, families, and economies around the globe need leadership, eXfuze is leading the network marketing industry and raising up leaders that will change the world. In his 'State of eXfuze' address, Don Cotton, President & Co-Founder, spoke of Mastering the Moment and the eXfuze commitment to the best, most efficacious products in the marketplace. Don reiterated that eXfuze has a proactive message of hope, not a reactive message of fear.

Saturday morning opened with Executive Vice President, Paul Morris, inspiring everyone with his talk about "Building Your Cathedral" with a lifetime commitment. He then went on to encourage everyone to THINK GLOBAL and shared all the excitement and growth now taking place in our International Operations.

Vice President of Operations and Research & Development, Peter Hammer, instilled a high level of confidence in the distributors as he shared some of the behind the scenes activities going on at corporate.
NEW PRODUCTS

Two exciting new products were introduced at the Annual Conference this year. Super Seven+ fortified with eXboost FOCUS, Seven+ PROformance and the newest edition to our business building tools, the Fuzebox.
NEED ENERGY? NEED TRAVEL?

By popular demand, Super Seven+ is perfect for the person on the go. Super Seven+ comes in 2 ounce pouches that can be transported anywhere and used at any time! Tear, drink, and feel the energy and focus!

With 300 different brands, energy drinks have become a $9 billion per year industry. Typically, energy drinks are full of stimulants and other harmful substances that mimic energy and damage the adrenal system. However, in today's busy times, people are willing to take the health risk to have the energy they need to make it through their day. eXfuze has responded to those demands by creating an energy supplement that gives you the energy and focus you need to make it through your day without the damaging side effects of other products.

Super Seven+ with eXboost is loaded with antioxidants and formulated with pure extracts. It has beneficial nutrients such as Phytochemicals, Polyphenols, Anthocyanins, Flavonoids, Catechins, Plant-Based Minerals, and more.

In addition, it contains increased amounts of Brown Seaweed Extract that in clinical trials enhances the immune system, supports gastrointestinal health and detoxifies. The Periwinkle Flower extract found in Super Seven+ contains Vinpocetine which has been shown to help memory improvement*, increases awareness and alertness*, protects the brain from oxidation*, and give you true energy from increased brain blood flow*. Super Seven+ feeds, nourishes and enhances your brain and is the healthy alternative for energy*!

READY TO PERFORM?

Introducing Seven+ PROformance, the newest version of the PRO. Containing a rare combination of adaptogens and our eXboost PROformance blend, you are equipped to counter the effects of stress and reduce the negative impact of mental and emotional tension*, poor lifestyle habits*, pollution, infection, and other environmental factors*. eXfuze PROformance blend delivers pure energy without stressing the body's nervous system or adrenal systems*.

Shown in clinical studies by Thomas Incledon at the University of Miami Department of Exercise and Sport Science as a natural source for increasing energy, boosting stamina and sustained endurance. eXfuze's PROformance Blend helps metabolize carbs, proteins, and fats into energizing fuel*, allowing improved muscular strength*, improved oxygen uptake*, and improved aerobic performance capacity*!

eXfuze PROformance was available for those who attended the conference to taste. The reviews were fantastic as many said, "This is the best tasting product I have ever had!" Those who attended the conference had the opportunity to buy PROformance. Coming to all distributors in the fall of 2009.
THE SCIENCE

Dr. Marcus Kuypers, Dr. Joe Guarnera, Dr. Gary Booth, Dr. Natale Vitori, and Dr. Ahmed shared their professional opinions on the eXfuze brand of products and all concluded that "The eXfuze brand of products provide the raw materials to help the body heal itself*."

Each of the doctors acknowledged the damaging effects of inflammation on all of the body's systems. Thankfully, eXfuze has products that can help the body protect, heal, regulate, and maintain itself*.

This was demonstrated through several scientific studies that have been completed in reputable university laboratories such as the University of Miami, Brigham Young University, and Purdue University.

Dr. Gary Booth of Brigham Young University conducted independent studies that show empirical data as to the effectiveness of the eXfuze brand of products on human cells. Dr. Booth's studies showed that 80%+ of abnormal cells died when Seven+ was introduced! As Dr. Booth said, "WOW!" Dr. Booth also stated that the studies show that Seven+ is very bioactive on free radicals and is loaded with anti-oxidant activity!

Dr. Natale Vitori, world-renowned scientist, explained the incredible science of Fucoidan and Brown Seaweed extract. Since pre-historic times, Fucoidan has created mechanisms to protect itself. It is a complete polysaccharide with tremendous anti-viral*, anti-inflammatory*, anti-flu*, tissue regenerative* and neuron protecting properties*.

Purdue University tested the purity of Fucoidan in the eXfuze brand of products by conducting a molecular weight analysis, chromatographs, composition analysis and other tests. Present in every bottle of eXfuze products are four critical complex sugars that are ONLY available from ingesting algae! These complex sugars are critical to your brain health.

In summary, the eXfuze brand of products provides your body with the raw materials to defend*, repair*, regenerate*, regulate*, and maintain itself in all body systems and we now have the science to prove it!
MOTIVATE, INSPIRE, EDUCATE

Two days packed with information, motivation, energy, excitement, and recognition!

Steve Campbell detailed why eXfuze is the right company with the right products at the right time. With the best products, leadership, and compensation plan, eXfuze is breezing past the competition and setting the bar higher than ever before.

Eddie Freeman increased our belief level by inspiring us with experiences and stories to show that he who believes the most, wins. Hideki Miyako, one of our premier leaders from Japan, told his inspiring story of his experience with Seven+.

Nobuhiro Kaneko spoke of his initial failure to succeed in network marketing and offered an unforgettable illustration of how we must make a commitment to go 200 mph and not stop for any distractions. If we do this, we will succeed! He also touched the hearts of all distributors as he described his experiences in the Dominican Republic and the children that eXfuze is supporting through our VivaKids mission.

Tadashi and Mari Sugimoto shared how eXfuze has brought new hope in to the lives of many and eXfuze will put the smiles back on the faces of thousands. Keith Halls touched our hearts with his discussion on holding to your dreams and not letting the dream stealers take them away. Keith also shared with us his passion for helping others and in doing so, being blessed in return.

Melyn Campbell gave us perspective. Perspective that we must open our minds and see that prospects and customers are around us all the time. Sandi Burgess taught us how to do an in-home meeting by keeping it simple, fast-paced, and fun! Randy Heaton showed us why commitment, a business plan, and goals are so important. Jeff Bracken gave us compelling evidence that being an eXfuze distributor is a smart business decision. Krista Van Camp taught that patience and persistence pays and that quitting is not an option. Byron Belka showed us how to overcome objections and close the deal.
RECOGNITION

Many leaders were welcomed to the stage to be recognized for their accomplishments. eXfuze is proud of the many distributors who have risen to leadership levels, raised the bar, and made their mark. Congratulations to Eddie Freeman who won the first ever Donald E. Cotton Memorial Award and to Madison Heaton who won the Viva Kids Passionate Leadership Award.

ENTERTAIN

The music of Dennis DeYoung and Styx had distributors and corporate staff on their feet, dancing and having the time of their lives. Incredible music, atmosphere, friends, and fun, filled the first night of the convention. Nothing but first class when it comes to eXfuze and the entertainment didn't disappoint.
THE FUZEBOX

Have you ever wondered how the premier leaders attain such monumental success? How you can have as much knowledge as the doctors? How you can be at a meeting on the other side of the country or build a team on the other side of the country?

Now you can! The Fuzebox made its debut at the conference with an overwhelming response. Now, with the click of your remote control, you can have the doctors, leaders, corporate staff, and opportunity meetings on your TV screen.

You can participate in a live meeting and interact with the presenter who may be hundreds of miles away. With multi-sensory media, your business can move to higher levels. Duplication is now simple with the Fuzebox. Phase One of the Fuzebox was available to conference attendees only. However others can now register for Phase Two by completing the form located in your back office. Don't miss the chance to be where the action is 24/7!
VIVA KIDS

Rick and Ann Cotton continued to share their vision and passion for the children that are being fed and educated because of the efforts of eXfuze and its distributors. As always, the mission behind eXfuze was brought close to our hearts as we listened to Dan Gower give an exciting new update of our Viva Kids in the Dominican Republic. And thanks to your continued support, we are now opening a new VivaKids center in Chihuahua, Mexico! A number of special distributors were recognized for their tremendous contributions to VivaKids, and we were reminded of how blessed we are to have the opportunity to give back to a hurting world.

And with rave reviews, excitement, and renewed commitment to success, distributors left the convention ready to lead! Now is our time! Move over...because for eXfuze...IT'S ON!!!

Road Trips past

OK.  Eloise and I have had 2 incredible road trips.  The first trip was to Spokane, Washington.  We took a day and half to drive there and a day and half back.  That gave us 2 days to visit.  In the past, if I survived the drive, I would have had a week or more to recover.  This would have included a full regimen of medications too.  This trip, the day after we got back, I was feeling as good as before we left!  What a blessing to see Eloise’s mother while we were there.  This made the memories of that trip so much more special.

Then 2 weeks later, we drove to Southern California to see Eloise’s father.  We took Ellie Rae with us, which was a treat, as this gave Dee a chance to get to know Ellie Rae too.  We left Friday, spent all day Saturday with Dee and drove home on Sunday.  Again, there were no residual effects of the driving time on Monday.  Dee is now a preferred customer too.

I’d like to be able to say that I’ve had no pain, but that isn’t so.  I have had LESS pain though.  Part of the pain amount has been caused by the swelling that used to occur.  This swelling is now almost non-existent.   So I’m still off anti-inflammatories and pain meds are almost down to nothing.

On the financial side, the fourth month will bring an estimated minimum net (after all costs) of $500.  More on this after the months end.

3rd Month stats and news

OK. At the end of the 3rd month, Total money paid out is $1922.00, including the years total for the extract fuzion website. If I prorate the website, the money paid out is $1493.00. Total income is $1548.15. NET $55.15 !!! YEAH!!! Thanks to the 5th week in July, I'm now completely in the black after 3 months.

Next month, the outlay will increase by around $300.00. including the website. Which means that after the second week, I will be profiting again.

I have 2 new preferred customers. 4 new in my downline. I believe that I will have 2 more distributers within the next week. Things are really looking up!!

I have had email from customers letting me know about the benefits from Seven Plus. Reported results include, better sleep patterns, deeper sleep, relief from psoriasis, eczema and other skin ailments, pain relief from swelling, better digestion and elimination, relief from itching, more energy, relief from fatigue caused by genetic and chromic ailments (including lupus), decreased food cravings, faster healing from cuts and bruises and decreased headaches. This is just the list of the results that I have been made aware of. Everyone seems to benefit differently, but almost everyone notices changes for the better.

Road Trip 2

Needless to say, the last road trip went exceedingly well.  We drove to Spokane Washington, spent 2 days and drove back, stopping off in Portland, Oregon.  I went without any meds except 1/2 pain pill on the trip back.  Too much inactivity.   The next day was great though.  As though I had not spent 4 of the previous 6 days on the road, in a car.  This was excellent news!!

So.  Two weeks later, my bride wanted to drive to see her father.  He lives 450 miles away in Sothern California.  So we packed up Eloise Renee and left Friday at 3pm.  We pulled into our hotel at around 11pm.

Dee had breakfast ready for us on Saturday morning.  We spent the morning there, went out for lunch and had dinner with Dee at his home.  We left our hotel Sunday morning at around 9am and pulled into our driveway around 5pm.  Again, I took 1/2 pain pill on the trip back, really before it was truly needed, but was glad that I had when we stopped.

Now, Monday morning, I can’t tell that the weekend was spent in a car.  This is compared to not being able to sit in a car for 2 hours without spending the next day or two tanked with pain medications, muscle relaxers and sleep aids!!

Oh, and Dee has started the Seven Day Challenge.  I’ll post his reactions in a week or so.

Road Trip

It is now 5:50am and I am enjoying the 1st cup of coffee today.  The morning is looking beautiful, and I think that I will walk this morning and enjoy the new day.

and I’m off.   well… after I finish my coffee……

And I’m (we’re) back.  Eloise and I just walked a short 2+ miler.  About an hour in this uneven, read hilly, terrain.  It is beautiful here and a great 64 degrees.  We drove through Shasta a few days ago and it was 107 !!

I made the trip in fair shape.  Still no meds except for a mild (1/2) painkiller because after the first 6 hour drive, my back locked up after the next 10 hours on the road.  My recovery this morning has been faster than ever before though.  I will post further into the week as to how this drive ends up.

the Secret to a Healthier Life

Unlike other nutritional products, eXfuze’s idea was to develop a method to extract only the essential nutrients from all seven of the internationally recognized superfoods.

So you can boost your immune system and slow aging the natural way with all seven of these superfoods without having to drink 2 to 4 ounces of each, as you would with other nutritional beverages, which would total 14 to 28 ounces per day.  Even at the low 14 ounces per day, your cost per day would be around $450.00 per month!!  With Seven+, your cost is less than $1.00 per day and you get the benefits of all 7 of the superfoods.

In the past, extracts have been inefficient for nutritional use, due to the process which used either heat or alcohol.  Both destroy nutritional value.  eXfuze has an exclusive  process than uses neither.  This allows a lower price and smaller amount needed.  Plus, because the vitamins and nutritional elements are delivered in a liquid form rather in a pill form, your body is able to utilize 80% to 90% more of the nutrients included in the extracts.

Progress at 2 months

My 2 month anniversary is almost here..  No, it is 2 months ago today that I received my first shipment of Seven+, all 16 bottles.  My sponsor lives 500 miles away, so training was slow to start.  I found out that my starter kit was light, and it took eXfuze almost 3 weeks to get me the complete kit.  So my start was slower than it should have been.  However, I am getting organized and am now ready to forge ahead.  My stats are as follows:

Total outlay for eXfuze is $1093.00, including the shipment I just received this weekend..  Unnecessary website $400.00.  Brochures and paperwork for me and future downline $124.00.  This makes a grand total of $1617.00

Total income is $804.00.   So at the end of my second month, after a slow start, my total revenue for eXtract Fuzion (eXfuze) is –$813.00.   And I have 6 bottles in inventory.   So I have a 50% return of my investment already.   And I consider my start to be really slow.

I have my binary legs started.  I have 3 or 4 preferred customers.  I have 4 or 5 retail customers.  I have 2 or 3 distributer prospects.  I have 2 meetings scheduled for this week, although I don’t know if there will be anyone there, as getting firm commitments is tough for me…….  I have given out over 20 bottles and still have 4 to follow up on this week.  Last weekend, I had my second training meeting with my downline and it went well.  I’m still learning myself about this Networking system and am not the best teacher/trainer yet.  But I DO get them the material they need and have made forms that need to be included in their folders.

Under lessons learned:

All distributers, keep a log of the bottles/samples given.  Keep a log of the outcome, as you need to recognize any patterns and you don’t want to miss someone that you think that you may have already approached.

Insist on your prospects following the 7 day challenge.  Then  follow up after 7 to 10 days.  You are NOT giving out $0,79 soft drink samples!  These samples cost real money.  Insist on at least finding out if they have used the product and getting feedback from them.

Also, be prepared to sell distributorships.  Make at least one or two starter packs for  new distributers.  You will want to give one out to your new distributer immediately on sign up.

eXfuze update

We had a great eXfuze meet in Vacaville.  There were 8 of us there, plus 2 presenters.  We had 2 or 3 people see our group and ask for the readers digest version afterwards.  I learned more and am now realizing that I will need to formulate my thesis concerning how and why I have come to use and sell Seven Plus.  I guess that it sums up to this: I would drink Seven plus, even if there never was any financial gain in it for me.  However, getting in on the ground floor of a company with this product and at this time is something that cannot be dismissed!

My immediate family has witnessed how this has changed my health and they are now all signing up.  EVEN my MOM!!  She was sold on the product before Larry had even brought me my free bottle.  Now, with hearing us talk about the business side of eXfuze, she insisted on joining.  We told her that we would make sure that she should always get he Seven Plus, but she was adamant about signing on.

So. at 5 weeks in, I have now received my check from eXfuze.  (they pay weekly)  I have grossed just under 40% of my total investment, including all of the Seven Plus that our 4 family members have drank, to date.  At this rate, my fourth month will have me handily in the net profit range after all startup costs, maintenance costs, usage costs, etc.  I have never even heard of a business that would do that.  And this with only a semi-part time effort.  I mean, I was sooooo reluctant to join a MLM company that I have avoided letting anyone know what I’m involved with.  (I know that I need to swallow more than a little pride and “come out of the closet” with this)

May 25
My reasons for eXfuze
It’s time that I posted this. Brother Larry brought me my first bottle of eXfuze Seven +. He was enthusiastic about what he had seen it do for his wife’s boss. Larry was not even close to being the first friend or relative to bring me a product or information on a new medical (or non-medical) treatment that they hoped might help me manage my back and leg pain.
The accident was in 1986 and I spent 1987 and most of 1988 going to Physical Therapy and being retrained and relearning how to do things so I wouldn’t increase the pain. I was told by my medical team; Orthopedist, Neurologist, MD, Chiropractor, Disability Insurance Case Handler & Physical Therapist; that there was a 90% chance that it would be too painful for me to walk in 10 years! I had better get my life geared for that day. Believe me, panic started to set in. I was determined to push the Physical Therapy as hard as possible. I was enrolled at a specialized PT clinic for back injuries called “the Back Works”. It was owned and run by a former Head of Emergency Surgery at the largest hospital in San Francisco. The Back Works facility and philosophy is another complete story to be told later. Anyway, I was told to slow down and ease off or I would be doing more harm than good. So I settled into the program. They studied us in every physical movement, in sitting down, laying down, reclining, standing, picking things up, putting things down. getting in and out of cars, brushing your teeth, combing your hair, putting on make-up for the women, etc. They used everything from movies, x-rays, cat scans, infrared photography, tape measurers, you name it, and studied how we did things. Then they re-taught us how to do those things such a way to not aggravate our injuries. I had to completely relearn how to stand up! Anyway, I came out of that with one solid deduction. I had to walk every day, pain or not. I started out at 1 mile per day, 5 days per week. Friends would ask “Doesn’t it hurt to walk?” I developed a mantra. “Yes, it hurts to walk, but it hurts more to NOT walk. And If I don’t walk, I won’t be able to walk.”
I was prescribed many drugs and tried them all until I found the “cocktail” that worked best for me. They included all of the usual suspects such as Vicodin, Valium, Flexeril, Morphine, Ibuprofen, acetaminophen, Oxycodone, Prednisone, Percocet and a bunch of names that I don’t recall right now, some steroids and some not. Some of which didn’t help the pain so much as made one not care if you hurt or not. Morphine is like that, it just dopes you into a stupor. Every year I went on a Prednisone regimen and received a steroid shot into my L5 lumbar when needed. I have a reasonably high tolerance for pain and that helped allot too. Even my Doctors were surprised at how much pain I could stand. It seems that they could “measure” the pain by using the infrared photography. Anyway, my life now included Chiropractors, Masseuses, Medical Doctors, Physical Therapists, Orthopedists, Neurosurgeons, Pharmacists, etc. on a regular appointment basis. I had my “good day and weeks” and my “not as good days and weeks”. Over the course of 20 years, I have pretty much adjusted my life to compensate.
Without going into detail, last winter wasn’t my best winter. So I came into the spring determined to get back into a regimen that would even out the days. And by April, I was doing good, but not great. I had also developed a new problem with my feet last year. I was going to the doctor for this also. It felt like I had a blister running completely across the ball of both feet, just under my toes. It had gone from uncomfortable to painful. I had even gone out and bought all new shoes. The doctors said that there was nothing wrong with my feet. It must be a nerve problem tied into my back injury. Oh great.
Enter Brother Larry. Or I should say, In Stormed Larry! Larry is my baby brother, six years older. He drove up to give me a bottle of eXfuze. And an enthusiastic Larry is impossible to ignore. He had witnessed eXfuze in action! I was underwhelmed with it being another MLM company product, however “help is where you find it”. But it was Larry, a loved one and it was free, so I reluctantly agreed to give it a try. Unlike any of the other juices I had taken, I found it to be really tasty. I did tell Larry that I didn’t want to hear about the company or it’s sales structure or how I could get rich selling it to my friends and relatives. He said “Yeah, Yeah, shut up and drink the stuff.” The next morning, I started on the twice daily routine. Larry went home the next day. He had traveled 800 miles to bring me a bottle of eXfuze. He could have UPS’d it allot cheaper, but he wanted to witness me actually drinking it. Such trust between brothers….. We know each other so well….
When I went for my evening walk 3 days later, I noticed that my feet had NO pain. Hum. I was walking alone, so I had time to think without anyone there. Had I taken more meds than usual that day? No. Actually, I hadn’t needed to take ANY meds that day. Hum. This was nice. A real comfortable walk. I walked 5 instead of the planned 3 miles. No pain. HUUUM. Well, I have always had “good days and not as good days”, so I won’t mention it. Larry called a few days later and wanted to know if I was drinking the eXfuze. I said yes, I was drinking it as told to. He wanted to know if I was OK. subtle aren’t we. I, just as subtle, said yeas, I’m having an OK week. After 2 weeks, my wife confronted me with “You’re feeling allot better aren’t you? I can see it in your face and your back isn’t “mushy” at all." So, being a real Hartsuiker, I admitted “yeah, I’m having a pretty good week”. And she gave me an Eloise look, rolled her eyes and then gave me an Eloise smile. “OK, I’m having a great week, but it may not be anything to do with anything”. After two more days, she said “You need to call Larry”. Yeah I did, ‘cause I was running out of eXfuze.
OK. My feet were pain free and I felt better than I have felt in ……15 years..?? I have taken Seven Plus to my doctors to check out. My Primary’s partner is a DO. They are really enthusiastic about these types of products. Natural is always better than synthesized. I called Larry, who then introduced me to the cost structure and how I could save by being a distributer. This was great as I already had plans to send bottles to everyone that I have been through Physical Therapy with. There were 41 in my class! eXfuze has set up a binary structure that is different than any I had even heard of. I bought in and am charging forward. I have heard from 3 of the friends that I made at the Back Works and two of them are drinking it daily. One of my friends there is a paraplegic. He has had a serious problem with his legs itching for 22 years. After 4 days, the itching disappeared!! It is hard for most people to imagine how profound this is for us. I spent 18 months with this man, watching him scratch his legs bloody. Hearing back from him made this year so much better.
So I will now try to wrap up. After 5 weeks, I haven’t taken an anti-inflammatory and my pain meds have been cut by 85-90%. I feel healthier. This may be because of the eXfuze Seven Plus or because in drinking Seven Plus, I take less meds, or both. I am back to sleeping 5-6 hours without waking up every 30-45 minutes and getting up feeling like I am fully rested. My sleeping pattern is exactly like it was before I was hurt. I am not pain free, but coping with the pain is much easier and with much less medication. Eloise witnessed how it helped me and has now started drinking it as well. Amanda witnessed her her mother’s actions and response to Seven Plus and has started drinking it also. They will have to write their own stories.

Thoughts on MLM
Everyone that knows me long enough has heard my Amway stories. The stories that include our friend Mike who had to discourage the Amway people from meeting at his restaurant because of the disruption they caused. They would even bother other customers, if said customer would dare to make eye contact. And of course, there was Shaklee, Avon, and so on up to Nikken, Herbal Life and Mona Vie today. Most of these companies have great products. I object to their marketing strategy. If you want to buy their soap, they will try to sell you their vitamins too. AND if you sign up and buy an outrageous amount of product yourself, you will most assuredly become Americas newest millionaire. Guaranteed. Even though it hasn't happened to them or anyone they know, they have HEARD of someone who is now making a zillion dollars a year. And in the past, they have always pushed anyone who would stand still, really hard.
So. For me, why this and why now?
Well, as I stated on my business blog, http://airlessspraycenter.blogspot.com/, I have been looking for something that would give me a secondary income. Preferably a residual one. I looked at some of the current companies. The trouble with them is their size. I would be signing on to a company where millions of people are already selling the product. That means I would be trying to steal someone else’s customers for my own. Gathering new customers to the product would be difficult. And the starting costs, in reality, are very large. I know, you can start for $40 or $60, or $80. But that just gets you on their distributer list. You still cannot sell at a profit until you recruit someone else, actually many someones, and/or buy a large amount of product yourself. Some were $3000.00 to $6000.00 to get everything up and running. Before you could make a dime. Plus your monthly required order. Which means if you do REALLY well, you will recoup your investment in a year or so. And your primary job will have to support you and your secondary job for that time. If you do really well. Most do not.
eXfuze is different in a couple of important ways. First is that there is only 2 products. Seven Plus and Seven Plus Pro. So you can order allot of inventory for less than $350.00 Then there is the fact that eXfuze is a business in it’s infancy. Their first shipment was made in the Fall of 2008. Less than a year ago. That means that the market for this product is wide open. As an extract, it is in a newer, improved and more advanced market than the concentrated juices. So it’s product is in a market of ONE! They make their over-ride checks on a weekly basis. They pay a higher percentage than all of the others. But mainly for me, it is getting in on the ground floor with a company that will grow exponentially. In five years, look me up and ask how this went…….
