F. E. A. R.

Why are some people adverse to taking on risk? Because F. E. A. R. (False Evaluation About Reality) may be in their career DNA. Some people just fear the unknown and/or analyze a decision to death, sometimes referred to as "analysis paralysis". These kinds of people often are not happy with their careers; are unhappy in their work; and/or struggle achieving their personal goals. Because of their fear of the unknown, they languish in their current positions and are afraid to consider a career change. Unhappy and stay, and afraid to move. This betwixt and between career position make them uncertain. They may be very good people, they may be smart, hard working and basically want others to tell them what to do. These kind of individuals will probably not work out as a self-employed, entrepreneur who will become a Distributor with NuSkin. If you come across these kinds of prospects, present the opportunity but move on the "NEXT" person. You'll be wasting your time.

There are literally thousands of associations and/or Special Interest Groups (SIGS), and St. Louis is a major hub for local groups. Washington D.C. is the largest community of Associations in the US.

It's A Numbers Game

Think of yourself in a baseball or football stadium. How many people do you know? There may be 50,000 to 100,000 in attendance. Probably more than you think, but also - not so many. Everyone is a candidate to join our NuSkin team. You just have to search, tell the story and seek the Aces and Kings to be Distributors in your business. Not everyone you meet qualifies to be a Distributor, but everyone can be a consumer or customer of your business. Remember, we get paid on moving products through the supply channel, not on recruiting. You build income geometrically by recruiting people into your organization. Some times we get lost and discouraged because we think no one is interested. There are thousands and thousands of people just like you and me that are looking for work and looking for an opportunity to work for a great company, with great products and with a program that provides unlimited income. You just have to find those people who are looking. Residual income and financial security for you and your family is based upon your efforts, your hard work and your plans on how you want to achieve your goals. There is no limit to your success, if you take one step every day and build your business one number at a time. The more numbers, the greater your success!

Ethocyn - Research & Development

Having beautiful, smooth and firm skin allows one to feel good about their appearance and have a healthy self-image – qualities that help people live better, longer. To this end, biochemist Dr Chantal Burnison designed the breakthrough ingredient Ethocyn.
Ethocyn is a unique, patented molecule that is scientifically proven to be essential in the fight against and treatment of skin aging. Ethocyn combats Intrinsic, or chronological, aging. As we age, our skin unavoidably loses the elasticity and firmness it once possessed in younger years. Ethocyn treats and reverses this Intrinsic Aging by increasing skin's ability to produce elastin fibers.
Elastin gives the skin resiliency and the ability to stretch and snap back into shape, much like a rubber band. When we are young, our skin has high levels of elastin – on average, 14-18 percent. As we age, our elastin levels naturally decrease. Clinical trials confirm that in patients 40 years and older elastin levels drop to as low as .1% and on average are in the 9% range. For this reason, after the age of 25–30, our resilient and taut skin gives way to sagging and wrinkling.
Ethocyn’s efficacy has been proven in over 19 years of research and over $20 million in testing and development. In medically published punch biopsy clinical studies, "Ethocyn caused (p=.001) tested individuals, between 40-72 years of age, to regain the important skin elastin fiber content of 20 year old skin" (Richard A. Strick, MD. Clinical Prof. of Dermatology, UCLA School of Medicine). Independent of patients’ initial elastin fiber content, within 8 weeks of their twice daily applications, Ethocyn users showed an average of 100% improvement in their skin's elastin content, and restoration of skin's firmness and snapback quality. The results were identical in both males and females, Caucasian and Asian skin types, and individuals from 25 to 77 years of age. Ethocyn is applied topically twice a day: morning and evening, directly after cleansing. (www.ethocyninfo.com)

Entrepreneurship - Risk Minimized by NuSkin

Today, many colleges and universities are developing courses and programs for the "entrepreneur". Many of our younger generation are not seeking the grind and structure of the corporation to achieve their career objectives. So what is an entrepreneur and why do people want to take on the risks and receive the rewards of being a business owner? An entrepreneur is someone who takes upon themselves a new venture or enterprise, accepting full responsibility for their actions. Someone who creates value by offering a product or service by carving out a niche in a market that may not currently exist. At NuSkin, Distributors have that "entrepreneurial" spirit and build their enterprises on the Distributor platform developed by NuSkin. New businesses fail because of lack of financing, lack of product, lack of customers....not because of lack of hard work. NuSkin takes out much of the risk that causes failure, if a person is willing to work hard to build their business. The company, the products, the promotion/ branding, the compensation plan, the proven methods are all laid out for the person willing to work the business -- like an entrepreneur.

Working in a Crowded Marketplace

Competition is alive and well. The baby boomer market alone represents 90 million people in the US alone. Thousands of companies have products and services targeted at this market segment. So accept the fact that in the marketplace, the competition is crowded with firms, marketing messages and sales representatives. So how do we compete in a crowded marketplace? Here is the answer............know that you are working for a solid, professional and well managed company - NuSkin. NuSkin has been in business for 25 years, is NYSE traded, is rated 5A-1 by D&B, has $600 million in infrastructure and $100 million in liquid cash on hand. NuSkin has 750,000 Distributors, is a multi-national corporation with presence in 50 countries. The 125 top scientists at NuSkin manage millions of dollars in R&D, and have created "patented" products for the human body. AgeLOC, the Galvanic Spa II and GTru Face Essence Ultra are revolutionary in the health care industry. Don't believe everything you read and/or hear from competing firms and people. Know your company, your products and stand tall in the crowded marketplace. You have good reason to separate yourself from the competition.
