assalamualaikum
being a student, a trainee teacher and recently got myself married to the love of my life, is indeed too much to handle all at once. but i am enjoying every bits of it. well, now that i have got myself a husband, we both wanted something extra so that our journey as husband and wife will be better. Being an Independent Distributor of Herbalife provides us with the "something extra". I am not merely selling products to my customer, but i provide them with advice, i guide them, i checke up on them every week and more. My mother always said that i can never be a business woman because my blood line has always been about helping people. But i enjoy doing herbalife because i help people become healthier, and at the same time i earn some money. u see, i am not really a healthy and fit kind of person. i am fat and i have very poor health condition. but now that i have a husband, and i wanna build my life with him, i wanna have kids, i wanna grow old, drinking coffee in cameron highland, watching our grandchildren running around, and we both look into each other eyes and thank each other for all the wonderful memories we both have created.. i wanna do all that, that is why i think it is important for me to be healthy. i know that if i dont do it now, i'll die soon, having diabetic, heart attack, or i will be stuck on my bed, cause i am too fat, i can hardly move.
if you are reading this, i am inviting you to join me and make this world, or Malaysia at least, a healthier country and at the same time reduce poverty.
i found this article really useful, read this if you still have doubt to join Herbalife. It is not about making money, it is about making people healthy. Money is just the reward you that you'll get. but for all the muslim, pahala lagi penting ok.
Global Obesity Drives Growth For Herbalife
Featured Stocks
* Top-Rated Company
The economy may be losing steam, but companies marketing weight-loss and nutrition products keep getting fatter.
Take Herbalife (HLF), which just reported its seventh straight quarter of double-digit sales and profit growth. It also hauled in lots of free cash — $127 million in the quarter.
It was also the third straight quarter that beat Wall Street profit views, sending the stock up 10%, 13% and 6%, respectively, each time.
"We have a lot of momentum," said Chief Financial Officer John DeSimone in a phone call. "The products are relevant, and the new distribution methods are reaching deeper into communities."
The core products, which include low-calorie nutritious shakes, or "meal replacements," appeal to consumers looking to lose weight.
That's apparently a large market, indeed. According to industry watchers, about a third of Americans are obese, and more than 1 billion globally are just plain overweight.
"Globally, you're seeing obesity becoming a growing trend," said Anand Vankawala, an analyst with Avondale Partners.
Shake Mix
That trend is helping to fuel interest in Herbalife's Formula 1 shake mix, which makes up 30% of sales, and other products. Its next biggest sellers are herbal teas and aloe-concentrate drinks.
About 20% of sales are in supplements, such as vitamins.
"We consider ourselves more of a functional-food company than a supplements company," DeSi-mone said.
The company's top three drink products make up 50% of sales and are sold by the drink at a growing number of nutrition clubs formed by distributors around the world — roughly 70,000 now.
These group gatherings of like-minded people looking to take off pounds are fueling much of Herbalife's growth these days.
"That is the fastest-growing segment of their business," Vankawala said.
The clubs are also at the heart of the company's new business model, which is transitioning from a traditional, direct-selling model in which distributors interact with customers only sporadically as they sell them products in bulk, typically on a monthly basis.
Under the new "daily consumption" model, distributors have almost daily contact with customers, mainly through nutrition clubs in their homes or in leased storefronts.
There, they prepare and sell drinks to invited guests, who share testimonials on their weight-loss progress. Guests are encouraged to bring their friends and family.
Distributors are also setting up "weight loss challenges" in office lunchrooms and other venues, spurring people to lose weight by using Herbalife products and, like in the clubs, sharing testimonials.
wallahualam,
wassalam.
