• You control when you take a vacation and for how long

• You get impressive tax advantages

• You are investing your time instead of spending your time

• It’s yours!


WHAT IS BUSINESS?

Simply put, “business” is about making someone’s life better.

That’s all business will ever be. The further away a business gets from making its customers’ lives better, the less successful that business will be.

That’s the general idea behind “busi-ness”, but what would be YOUR moti-vation for owning your own business?

Would it be the security of owner-ship? The opportunity for greater wealth? Gaining time freedom? Or is it to help people? It’s helpful to consider this in the very begin-ning, because many times a person starts their own business only to lose sight of their original motivation.

Through business ownership, it is possible to improve the lives of others and obtain more freedom and wealth.

This booklet will help you understand business and the components that will make your business a financial success.


WHAT TO LOOK FORIN A PRODUCT OR SERVICE

Selecting the right product or service for your business

At the heart of a successful business is a product or service that people truly need or want. The most profit-able business is one that has a product that is unique and consumable—or, a service that is unique and renewable.

Having a “unique” product means that the customer can only acquire it from you. For example, why do you go to your favorite restaurant? Why is it your favorite? Because you can’t get that type of food anywhere else. That con-cept carries over to all business - if you want to be succesful, it’s important to make sure you have unique products.

“Consumable” means that the cus-tomer uses and reorders the prod-uct on a regular basis. This is a key

component of creating wealth.

“Renewable,” similar to consum-able, means the customer re-news their service with you on a regular or consistent basis.

Your time versus a product

When thinking about owning your own business, it’s wise to consider whether you want to sell “you” or sell a product. If you decide you want to cut hair as a business (sell you), consider that there is a limited amount of time in a day — you cannot personally cut enough people’s hair to ever create wealth.

Yet, a product can be manufactured millions of times. Therefore, if you want to create wealth, it would be far bet-ter to sell shampoo than to cut hair.


TRENDS ANDPRODUCT POSITIONING

Introduce your product or service at the right time

One of the most critical elements in starting a successful business is TIMING. You don’t just need great products, you also need to introduce them at the right time.

The “right time” is created by supplying a product or service to a large and expanding group of people - a phenomenon that we all know as a “trend.” When thinking about starting a business, it’s helpful to consider what the trends are and how you can use them to your benefit.

For instance, the most significant group of people creating trends in the marketplace today is the Baby Boom

generation. Who is the Baby Boom generation? Well, immediately following WWII, the men returned from war and started families. Between 1946 and 1964, seventy-six million babies were born in the USA, and one billion babies worldwide. That was an eighteen-year “boom” in population growth.

Why is the Baby Boom generation so significant to business owners? Because the “Baby Boomers” are not only the largest group of people in the world, they also control approximately 65% of all the money in the world. So gearing your business towards the Baby Boomers is a great way to position your business for success.


BABY BOOMEREXAMPLES

To help you visualize the economic impact of Baby Boomers, picture a basketball (the Boomers) moving through a garden hose (the economy).

Here are a few examples of how much the Baby Boomers have impacted trends in the past. The first trend? Baby food. Gerber became a household name by supplying baby food to this large group of new babies. From there - toys (Mattel, Hasbro), music (Rolling Stones), cars (Ford Mustang), fast food (McDonalds), homes (Century 21) and then healthcare. These are all examples of industries and companies that have succeeded by supplying something that fit the needs of the Baby Boomers.

So what are the needs of Baby Boomers NOW? Well, let’s consider that they are roughly between 45 and 65 years old. That means they would be looking for things like:

• Health and wellness products and education

• Vanity (anti-aging) products and services

• Retirement products and services (money to retire, estate planning, etc.)


A BUSINESS THAT WORKSWhat has your in-depth research on network marketing revealed? Dr. King: It is currently a $30.8 billion industry in the United States, $110 billion world-wide. We have over 15 million independent business agents in the U.S. and more than 57 million around the globe as companies are expanding into Asia, South America and Europe.

What would you say is the current trend in network marketing? Dr. King: The industry is moving into a wave of professionalism. We are seeing more and more

professionals — physicians, dentists, attorneys, CEOs, college professors — going into network marketing.

As a professor of marketing, why do you like network marketing? Dr. King: There’s no question, based on all of my research, that network marketing is one of the most cost efficient channels in all of the marketing discipline — whether you’re talking about network marketing versus transmission of direct catalogs, direct mail, telemarketing or whatever — network marketing continues to be the most effective distribution channel.

“For a small financial investment and a commitment in sweat equity, hard work, and dedication anyone can be successful in network marketing.”

DO THE WORK YOURSELFOR HIRE OTHERS?

After you’ve chosen a good product and are in front of large, growing trends, the next important decision to make in owning your own business is whether you plan to do it all yourself or hire others.

Every business owner runs into the trap of trying to do it all. If you do this, you will eventually run out of the time and/or knowledge that you need to keep up.

The first thought is normally to hire an employee, which is certainly better than trying to do it all yourself. But hiring employees can itself cause business failure. Why? Firstly, you don’t know that the employee you hire will

actually work. Secondly, you don’t know if the employee will earn the company more money than they cost.

In the early stages of a business, the owner very often pays their employees the money that they should be using to advertise and grow the business.

The solution is to hire representatives instead of employees, because with representatives, you only pay them when they actually produce something.

Let’s look at how the real estate industry uses representatives instead of employees.

THE ADVANTAGE OF HIRINGINDEPENDENT REPRESENTATIVES

A real estate broker hires an agent or representative (not an employee).

The representative (or rep) sells a home and earns a percentage of the sales price of the home and so does the broker.

Shouldn’t it be that way? The broker trains the reps and provides a place for them to do business.

The critical difference between reps and employees is that reps only get paid when they actually sell something, while employees get paid whether they sell something or not.

And if you hire an employee, you pay them whether they help your business or not.

If the real estate broker wants to earn more money, he simply hires more reps.

THE DISADVANTAGE OFHIRING INDEPENDENT REPRESENTATIVES

The problem with both employees and reps is that when they want to become brokers (or own their own business), they leave the company and become competitors to the original broker (or business owner) who trained them. The problem of reps

breaking away to become brokers (competitors) is com-

pounded as more and more reps do the same. This is why there are so many

different real estate companies today.


THE SOLUTION TO HIRING &TRAINING YOUR COMPETITORS

There is a solution to this problem.

Instead of allowing the reps you train to break away and start their own businesses, why not allow them to become brokers in YOUR company?

With your reps becoming brokers in your company, you won’t continue to receive a 3% commission from all their sales - it will be less. But you will still

be earning revenue from their sales, and this strategy will encourage the reps to remain with your company.

With your reps becoming brokers in your company, hiring other reps, and training them to be brokers, you would keep all of your satisfied customers and have a constant source of new business.


IN THIS SCENARIOEVERYONE WINS

LONG-TERM RULE: If you employ others (either as employees or as reps), the only way to retain them is to offer them the same amount to gain as you have. You do this by allowing them to become brokers in your company and own their own business.

If you don’t allow them this opportunity, there is a good chance that they will someday break away and become your competition, especially if they are talented.

By letting them become brokers in your company, you still earn revenue from their business, but they get to be business owners too. Everyone wins!


BEST BUSINESS MODELSTEP ONE & TWO

The best business model would “copy” the good parts of the broker/rep arrangement:

FIRST, a sales rep would acquire customers. Obviously, having customers is what creates a consistent income.

SECOND, get one rep and teach him or her how to get customers. By doing this, you’re not trying to do it all yourself.

You get customers

You teach the rep to get customers


STEP ONE & TWOTHIRD, once your rep is skilled at getting customers, teach him how to find and train one new rep and ensure that he can train this new rep to get customers.

If you got 20 customers and taught your rep to get 20 customers, you’d now have 40 customers buying your product.

It’s very important to make sure that your reps are capable of bringing in their own customers as well as finding other reps who

know how to bring in customers.

They are now building “their own business” within your business. And they have as much to gain as you do.

Training reps to get customers is truly investing your time, instead of just spending your time.

Rep teaches new rep to get customers

BEST BUSINESS MODELSTEP THREE


THE ARIIX STORYIn a living room one Sunday, a small group of icons in the direct sales industry got together and decided to start a movement. Why? Because they saw an epidemic of company owners putting profits above people, and the time had come to do something about it. Focused on being the catalyst for change, these individuals made radical decisions to forever alter the landscape of direct sales. Some sold their companies. Others walked away from successful careers spanning decades.

They wanted to offer a realistic opportunity for everyone to have a chance at success, regardless of family background or economic status. They believed that everyone should be able to see infinite possibilities for their life. All of them together formed a completely new identity – ARIIX – a company dedicated to unleashing the human potential for good. They

realized that health is about more than just your physical wellbeing - it’s also about your mental, social, and financial health. ARIIX advocates a total health approach to improving your life in nearly every area.

The ARIIX vision of total health started at the most fundamental level – the cell. Their goal was to create the best nutritional support for the cell and its regenerative processes, in order to unlock the body’s potential for overall health. Together with leading experts in nutritional science, the ARIIX team explored the positive effects of Supportive Nutrition, and the emerging science of Regenerational Nutrition, which helps the body restore itself at the cellular level.


Unfortunately, today’s health care systems do not encourage us to cultivate cellular health or to take advantage of supplemental nutrition. Instead, it gives us drugs and surgeries as definitive answers to human health problems. This is clearly not the solution, as we see millions of people dying from largely preventable diseases. Many of us have fallen into the trap of believing that pharmaceuticals and other forms of drugs are helping us gain better health when, in reality, they are often designed only as a tool to help us through an immediate crisis – and not for sustaining long-lasting wellness. ARIIX believes that through the right education, the right support, and the right products, everyone can improve their health in a fundamental and meaningful way.

At ARIIX, we know that your body has unfathomable powers. It is a miraculous and complicated machine that doesn’t just affect you - it is you. Your body is your vehicle for adventure. It is your machine for thought and reason. Your vessel for feeling. The resting place of your soul. Your body is the home that you live in your entire life and you are the owner. That’s why your health is your most valuable investment, and we will help you live your best life by showing you a better way to optimize it. That is our story.

ARIIX began with a few like-minded individuals coming together to create something different – something great. But it didn’t stop there. It soon evolved into a larger group of passionate people, united by a vision to become a true force for good.

And now, ARIIX has a growing global presence, with a message of health that is spreading across the world. If you believe in the importance of lasting, fundamental health; if you want to unleash your own potential for good and bring others with you; if you feel the sense that you were meant to strive for something greater – join us. We are strong. We are moving forward. We are ARIIX.


THE ARIIX VISION

Our vision at ARIIX is based on the Golden Rule. We believe that when we help others succeed, everyone benefits.

We want to provide each of our Representatives the opportunity to be a successful entrepreneur with an impeccable network of support and education. We achieve this goal by:

future is to earn income from multiple sources. ARIIX provides a solid, low-risk opportunity to diversify, become an entrepreneur, and be your own boss.

Giving back and sharing success ARIIX is driven by the power of human potential. We want to help our Representatives succeed, and then utilize that success to give back to those in need.

TO UNLEASH THE HUMAN POTENTIAL FOR GOOD


THE ARIIX MANAGEMENT TEAM

At ARIIX, we believe that successful business is based on successful relationships. That’s why we are dedicated to supporting our Members in every possible way. Our people are what makes ARIIX great.


SCIENCE

ARIIX stands alone in its unique comprehension of health sciences. We are committed to staying informed of the latest research in Supportive Nutrition, which focuses on providing the body with the optimal nutrients for it to function at its peak. ARIIX is also a pioneer in the emerging science of Regenerational Nutrition, which helps the body restore itself at the cellular level. Science has been telling us for years that many of our bodies’ illnesses and impairments are caused by malnutrition, and that our modern diet often fails to provide us with the critical nutrients that our bodies need to function properly. We at ARIIX are

committed to help overcome this problem, and to that end we have partnered with leading scientists and nutritional experts from around the world to create the proprietary formulae for our supplements.

Our ingredients contain elements that research indicates are vital to overall cellular health, which translates to positive effects on overall energy and performance, as well as the slowing of many degenerative processes that come with aging.

You can count on ARIIX to bring you the highest-quality products backed by the highest-quality research. We believe that better nutrition leads to better health, and better health leads to a longer, fuller life.


THE GOLD STANDARDIN NUTRITIONAL PRODUCTS

Our name, ARIIX, comes from the Latin root for the word ‘GOLD’. We chose this basis for our name because we strive to be the gold standard against which all other nutritional supplements are judged. Therefore, we are absolutely dedicated to maintaining the high quality of our products. Before any of our supplements get the ARIIX stamp of approval, each one must be carefully examined and proven to exceed industry standards - and to exceed even our own expectations for excellence.

In order to create the proprietary formulae for our products, we first consult with industry experts who are leaders in the fields of nutritional science and comprehensive wellness. We stay on top of cutting-

edge research that pertains to every aspect of what we create, and we rigorously test each of our ingredients for quality and purity.

We promise that all ARIIX products contain the identity and quantity of the ingredients listed on the label and that each is free of undeclared contaminates. We manufacture all of our products in a local pharmaceutical-grade facility that is GMP compliant, FDA-OTC certified and NSF certified.

COMPENSATION PLAN

The ARIIX Activ8 Compensation Plan is a uniquely developed structure designed to allow the ability for unlimited profitability potential as well as long-term stability. We have developed a new category of compensation structure called the “multi-line” - an approach that means there will be an increased flow of income to the top and bottom lines. The Activ8 Compensation Plan identifies and overcomes the industry’s most prevalent concerns and creates incomparable income potential.

Membership Types

When someone joins ARIIX, they will always start as an ARIIX Member, which allows them to receive a discount on their product purchases, as well as earn product credit towards future purchases. When an ARIIX Member earns a minimum of $30 in credit within a week, they are now able to become an ARIIX Representative* and earn income based upon their activity within the Activ8 Compensation Plan.

IIX Membership

Each new ARIIX Member has an opportunity to acquire or purchase a IIX Membership; this opportu-nity is only available to new ARIIX Members. This membership entitles them to double their product discount through the ARIIX Auto Delivery Program, as well as double their earnings from all “Bonuses” within the Activ8 Compensation Plan when they become an ARIIX Representative. A IIX Member-ship is the critical first step to maximizing the Ac-tive8 Compensation Plan. Watch for the “IIX Perks” described throughout the Activ8 Compensation Plan to see all of the additional benefits this membership affords ARIIX Representatives.

Retail Profits

All ARIIX Representatives and Members are given the opportunity to purchase the life-changing ARIIX product line at a discounted wholesale price, and retail the same product at the suggested retail

price. The difference between the price purchased and the price sold becomes profit for the ARIIX Representative. IIX Perk: Double the discount from the already discounted Auto Delivery price, increasing the potential Retail Profit

significantly. Base Commissions

After activating their first Income Position with at least 150 points of product volume (PV), ARIIX Representatives who remain Active will have the opportunity to build their organization in a truly revolutionary and profitable way. Each Income Po-sition will start with 2 lines which they are allowed to enroll new ARIIX Members in. As their business grows they will have the opportunity to add ad-ditional teams or lines to the same Income Position. Each of these teams is able to generate significant volume, and the largest of these teams is identified as the Power Line. This permits all other lines to be identified as Pay Lines.

Base Commissions provides a 15% commission on all accumulated Product Volume (PV) within all Pay Lines. As each Pay Line generates the potential

of $2,000 in Base Commissions, the ability to add a new Pay Line to the Income Position is granted; permitting for an unlimited potential number of Pay Lines per Income Position. In addition to this, the ARIIX Representative will also be given the option of operating a new Income Position within the Pay Line which reached the optimized $2,000 in Base Commissions, allowing for continued support and additional earnings from the depths of that organization.

The Activ8 Base Commission model provides the ability to build your organization infinitely wide and infinitely deep.

Team Lead Bonus

The qualifying Representative at Team Lead or above, with at least four Active Personally Sponsored ARIIX Members in their team will earn an additional $33.75. IIX Perk: By having a IIX Membership, the earning ARIIX Representa-tive will double this bonus, giving them $67.50 and virtually ensure that their business will pay for the exceptional health provided by the ARIIX Product Line.

Becoming an ARIIX Representative requires a minimum of $30 in earnings within a week, and a completed ap-plication, including agreement to the Policies and Procedures which pertain directly to Representative Status.

Active status is determined by accumulating a minimum of 75 points in product volume within the previous four week period.

Gold Status

Representatives who enroll four new ARIIX Members (with 75 PV minimum) wihin their first 8 weeks, OR who maintain a minimum of four Active Personally Sponsored Members who receive an Auto-Delivery, will qualify for their first three gen-erations of Matching Bonus through achieving Gold Member Status. Gold Member Status will also have many other advantages, which will be announced at a future date.

Matching Bonus

The Matching Bonus gives the ARIIX Representative a matching percentage on the Base Commission earnings of their enrollment organization up to 7 Generations deep. This bonus is paid with a Gen-erational Compression which ensures a deep reach into the Representative’s enrollment organization. IIX Perk: Double the matching percentage on all qualified Generations (graphic reflects IIX Membership).

Pay Line Bonus

Every ARIIX Representative will receive shares towards 1% of the Total Company Volume for the commission period, with each additional optimized Pay Line (earning $2000) after their first. One share of this Bonus is issued for the second optimized Pay Line, an addition two shares are issued for a third optimized line (totaling three), and three shares for the fourth optimized Pay Line (totally six). There is no limit to the amount of shares a Representative may earn in this bonus. IIX Perk: Double your earned shares within this Bonus.

Income Position Bonus

As Representatives begin to optimize their Income Positions (with at least one Pay Line generating $2000 in Base Commissions), they will begin to participate in the Income Position Bonus which contains 2% of the Total Company Volume. Shares are issued for each optimized Income Position a Representative has within that week; one share for their first optimized Income Position, two shares for their second (totaling three), and three shares for their third (totaling six). There is no limit to the amount of Income Positions that can be optimized, and therefore not limited to the amount of shares that can be earned in this Bonus. IIX Perk: Double your earned shares within this Bonus.

Luxury Car Bonus

Beginning with Director, ARIIX Representatives will begin to accumulate points for each week they qualify at their respective rank. Those points are accumulated until a reasonable down payment is achieved (six months), and then they are cashed out monthly towards the drive of a lifetime. IIX Perk: Earn twice the points towards a Luxury Car.

Rank & Promotions

Within the Activ8 Compensation Plan all titles and leadership ranks are determined by the amount of earnings generated with the ARIIX Representative’s Base Commission for a given Commission Period. Earn more - be more in the Activ8 Compensation Plan.


MISUNDERSTANDINGABOUT STRUCTURE

common questions:

People sometimes think that if someone is paid a commission on more than one level of the company, then it’s a pyramid.

This is false.

Every CEO or owner earns on all the levels of his/her company.

The employees on any given level of a corporation earn less money than those on the level “above” them. Within the corporation (and government), this is called “chain of command.”

Typical structure of an organization


PYRAMID OREFFECTIVE MANAGEMENT?ABOUT STRUCTURE

common questions:

The pyramid shape occurs when ANY person or organization becomes overwhelmed. Think about it, if you ran a children’s daycare, how many kids could you manage before you became overwhelmed?

Three? Five? Seven?

What if you were in charge of twenty kids? You’d have to hire other people to help you manage them.

Let’s say you hire two workers and divide the kids between the three of you. Now it’s manageable.

That’s not a pyramid, even though it’s shaped like one. It’s simply the most

efficient way to organize people so those in charge don’t get overwhelmed.

This is true in the shape of your family, all corporations, all governments, and network marketing.


DO THE PEOPLE AT THE TOPMAKE ALL THE MONEY?

common questions:

Some people believe that people at the “top” of a network marketing organization make most or all of the money. Sometimes this is true, but it is also true in all businesses.

The average employee in the United States earned $29,544 in 2006. In the same year, the average CEO earned over $10 million in total compensation! — Associated Press survey of 386 Fortune 500 companies

In a broker/rep type of business, there are people layered throughout the organization who are making more money than the people who brought them into the business.

Therefore, the people at the “top” don’t necessarily earn more than those below them. You don’t find this in other business models.

CEO compensation graph


DO YOU HAVE TO GET INAT THE BEGINNING?MAKE ALL THE MONEY?

common questions:

Some people feel you must get in “early” or at the very beginning of a company to be successful.

This is false. The earlier you get in on the TREND, the better, but how early you join the company isn’t the issue.

The concept of “get in early” comes from the investment industry. There, you try to buy an asset (stock, real estate, etc.) at the beginning and sell it to some person later because you don’t think it will go much higher. “Get in at the beginning, get out at the top.”

Rarely (if ever) is the first person in a network marketing company

the highest paid person. This is proof that one doesn’t have to get in at the beginning.


TOO BUSYNOT ENOUGH TIME

common questions:

Of course you’re busy. Everyone is busy. But when will it change?

The reason people don’t have enough time is not because they were given less time than anyone else. It’s more because they frequently have either one or both of these ideas: “I can do it better myself” or “I can do it quicker myself.”

These two phrases lock a person into less time. Wealth (of money and time) is hidden from those who insist on doing all the work themselves. Wealth reveals itself to those who are patient enough to train others. The secret is to have the patience to train others so that you can get more done.


BE A PROFESSIONALCOMMUNICATOR

In every business and in every profession, good communication is the key to gaining customers.

Communication is a learned skill that is required in nearly everything you do. Every minute spent - and every penny spent - learning to communicate more effectively will be well worth the investment.

As you have probably noticed, in every type of business, there are good communicators who do things in a professional, first-class way and there are others who come across as abrasive or unprofessional.

Professionalism comes down to doing the right thing for the customer. Sometimes the right thing is NOT selling your product or service to a

person. In other circumstances, a person who very much needs your product will decide against purchasing it because they cannot understand the need. Don’t turn your back on them. Part of the obligation of being a professional is to help the customers see for themselves WHY they need your product. If they still can’t see the need, you know that you tried your best.

Assuming you truly have a product that helps people, focus on finding people who want it rather than trying to force it on those who don’t want it. Be a professional. It will make you proud of what you do.


WORKAHOLIC PREVENTION

Owning a business that uses the broker/rep system allows you to create more wealth than you could if you tried to do all the work yourself.

For example, if the maximum number of hours a person can work in a day is 24 and the maximum number of days a person can work in a year is 365, then the maximum number of hours a person can work in a year is 8,760.

24 hours per day x 365 days =

8,760 hours per year

However, if you earned a percentage on the work of 100 people who each worked 8 hours per day for a year, you would be paid on 292,000 hours! Far more than you could ever possibly do yourself.

That is how you gain more time and achieve freedom. That is also how you gain wealth in your business.


SUMMARY

To build your own successful business:

Ensure that your business makes people’s lives better.

Ensure that your product is unique and consumable.

Ensure that your product is positioned in front of large trends.

Ensure that you’re not trying to do it all yourself and that you hire representatives rather than employees.

Ensure that you train your reps and make sure they have as much to gain as you do.

Be a professional.

Following these steps will allow you to create wealth and also have the time to enjoy it.

It will also help to make sure that you are proud of what you’ve created.

Dr. Fred Cooper, CEO, Founder

To guarantee you the rights and privileges of operating your own residual based business through one of the most innovative opportunities available to any entrepreneur in the world, we decided to clearly define what you should expect from your new business partner. Let’s return to those four words that define ARIIX.

Trust Partnerships should only be entered into with a 100% expectation of trust between all parties. Nothing else matters if we don’t earn and keep each other’s trust! And because we expect the same from you, we’ll hold each other to these standards and enjoy an amazing relationship together.

IntegrityAt ARIIX, we have made a serious commitment to act with integrity in business. That means always striving to do the right thing and to do everything possible to facilitate our Members’ success.

AbundanceThere’s more than enough for everyone! While generosity may sound like a simple enough concept, sadly we’ve found that with a little

success, greed often overrules generosity. That is why we have set a goal from the very beginning to make sure EVERYONE in our organization has the opportunity to enjoy life by realizing their dreams, improving their health, and creating wealth. The greater our success as a company, the more we will reward our Members.

FunAnd finally, having fun while we enjoy success together on this entrepreneurial journey is a must! Our goal is to make sure that you know how much we care not just by our words, but by our actions. We also have come to understand that fun is, and should be, defined by you! Our desire will be to help you determine what you’re passionate about, develop a plan of action, and promise to do everything possible to make sure this is the best opportunity you’ve ever seen.

1- Right to a Partners CouncilEach year, our top producing Representatives will

select among their leaders a Partners Council to represent their interests and work with the company as a field representative group, making suggestions and recommendations for the improvement and viability of the company.

2- Right to Share in ProfitsARIIX will share its profits with those Representatives who are instrumental in helping us build the company. Unlike most other companies where the owners end up with all the profits, we’ve designed a Profit Sharing Program to include and reward our leaders.

3-Right to True Ownership and ProtectionIn cases of alleged business compliance violations, we believe that the Company should not be judge and jury. While it will be necessary for the company to protect the opportunity for all Representatives, their families, and their future, we allow the right

“As we express our gratitude, we must never

forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter

words, but to live by them.” —John F. Kennedy


to appeal compliance decisions by an independent committee of their peers in serious or potential cancellation decisions.

4- Right to Review Compensation Plan ChangesOur goal to remain the most rewarding compensation plan in the industry will require regular reviews and improvements for its Representatives. Any potential compensation plan changes will be reviewed with the Partner Council in order to get their feedback prior to implementation.

5- Right to Be Our ExpertsAny time you desire excellence, you seek out the advice of experts. No one understands the needs of this business better than those who are actively involved in building the business. That’s why we will always consult with our Leaders in the field when developing our marketing, sales, and prospecting tools, to make sure that our materials are useful and relevant. We welcome suggestions and requests for new materials from our field members because we are here to help and support YOU!

6- Loyalty Chip—MulliganUnderstanding how much time and effort it takes to create a strong and thriving business, we realize that everyone who’s building a business occasionally needs special consideration, a Do-Over/Mulligan.

7- Right to Explanation and Reasonable NoticeYou have the right to reasonable notice of business-impacting changes and the right to ask for explanations on decisions that affect your business, including an audience with company management if necessary.

8- Right to Share in the Fun and IncentivesIn most companies, you see the corporate owners driving the exotic cars, flying in private planes, owning vacation homes, and purchasing their own yachts! And that can hurt when you know that their luxurious lifestyle is in part the result of YOUR hard work. At ARIIX, we certainly plan on enjoying these kinds of perks, but the crucial difference is that we believe in sharing! ARIIX Representatives will have

the right to use, enjoy, and utilize these business tools as true partners.

9- Right to Help Us Think Up What’s NextBecause we recognize you as our true partner, we want to hear what YOU think! We realize that over the years the company will change, new opportunities will arise, and our customers will require us to think in completely new and innovative ways to remain the leader. We never forget that the collaborative power of our outstanding Members is our greatest asset!
