WHAT IS VITALITY ANALYSES?

noreply@blogger.com (Chad S) — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 22:02:00 +0000

WHAT IS VITALITY ANALYSES?

Vitality Analyses is a system which measures the Vitality in anything living, such as people, plants and animals. Vitality has also been called "life force", "chi" and "prana". Dale Doram, M.Sc., has been researching this field for over 10 years. For example, in one study Coke was found to have a lower Vitality than carrot juice. We know from experience that soft drinks lower our Vitality as they contain no real nutrition.

Likewise, sometimes our bodies feel fresh and vibrant after we breathe mountain air or take a walk after a spring shower. We could say that we have more Vitality. Sometimes we feel tired and dull and in a bad mood. We could say that we have low Vitality that day.

Vitality Analyses uses a specially designed Bio-computer used by a highly trained technician to analyse the Vitality in foods, supplements, our bodies, immune system, etc. It has been found that the Vitality of the body can be enhanced through proper nutrition. The purpose of Vitality Analyses is to measure the bio-energetic impulses of the human Vitality body taking into account the uniqueness of your own body as well as its present conditions. The bio-computer incorporates science, radionics, physics, and energy consciousness.

Our birthright is health and balance. ill health and disease result when balance is lost either through an excess or deficiency of energy in our system. In Vitality Analyses we do not measure disease but instead measure the subtle interplay of body Vitality. Many ancient systems of health have talked about the vital essence of the body. Sometimes it is called

"Chi", "Qi", "Prana" or "Life Force". It is a natural flowing movement that nourishes every cell in the body. When there is a high Vitality (chi or prana) in the body there is less chance of disease because there is less stagnation or inertia in the the vital body and the body can cleanse, balance and heal in accord with the laws of nature. We have found through the experience of hundreds of people that certain changes in lifestyle and nutrition can have a large impact on our vitality.

A UNIQUE FEATURE of Vitality Analyses is that it can assess whether specific foods or supplements will enhance your Vitality prior to your taking or purchasing them. Just think of the savings!

Vitality Analyses can help you to:

I. Plan a nutritional and lifestyle program to optimize your Well Being.

2. Receive feedback about your body on which aspect is limiting your Well Being the most right now.,

3. Learn about the whether toxins, such as heavy metals and colon accumulations, inhibit your Vitality. 4. Find out other factors that can be inhibiting your Vitality such as:

-food sensitivities (ie. allergies)

-Candida Syndrome

-environmental allergies

-stagnation or inertia in vital organs(eg.liver, kidneys)

5. Discover which foods, herbs and supplements will enhance your Vitality the most right now.

6: Monitor your well being over time so that excess or deficiencies of Vitality can be prevented before they manifest as disease.

7. Save money on supplements by only consuming the ones you need!

To have your vitality tested or if you have more questions contact me, Chad at yogaschool@gmail.com

Namaste,

Chad

1. Navy Seals Fitness Challenge

Navy Seals Fitness Challenge

1970-01-01 00:00

Sunrider International - Navy Seals Fitness Challenge

On March 14, 2009 I participated in the Navy SEALs Fitness Challenge held on the campus of Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona. These types of events are open to the general public as a gesture of community outreach to make people more aware of the importance of physical fitness by comparing their performances to the minimum fitness requirements required to enter the SEAL training program (BUD/S). These exciting events are a win-win situation for all involved. The Navy gets an opportunity to make the public aware of many different types of employment opportunities that they offer, and the general public gets the chance to interact with active SEALs and to compete in an event that measures how physically prepared they are in comparison to a person applying to enter the real SEALs training!

I missed their tour last year when they came to UCLA because I was preparing for an amateur bodybuilding show. I was hoping they would come back this way in 2009, but Tempe, Arizona and Seattle, Washington are their closest stops to me this year. I followed a specific training routine to get ready for the event, which is really based on endurance rather than strength or speed. Here are the minimum standards for the Navy SEAL Physical Screening Test (PST):

500-yard swim (using sidestroke or breaststroke) under 12 ½ minutes
42 Push-Ups in 2 minutes
50 Sit-Ups in 2 minutes
6 Pull-Ups no time limit
1.5 Mile Run under 11 minutes

Here are my scores for my first competition:

Swim Time (breaststroke) in 10:00
90 Push-Ups
60 Sit-Ups
12 Pull-Ups
1.5 Mile Run in 11:03

What an amazing event! I felt like a little child going to Disneyland for the first time! Talking to real-life heroes who protect our great nation and meeting other fitness-minded people was something that only fueled my enthusiasm to compete with the SEALs again. So I am taking this first round as a baseline to focus on improving for the next Navy SEALs Fitness Challenge. Keeping in shape positively affects every other aspect of my life. Vitashake®, NuPlus®, Fortune Delight® are all part of my pre- and post-workout food regimens, along with the rest of the Sunrider® foods. One of my self-assigned missions here at the Sunrider corporate office is to see how far I can push my physical performance using Sunrider® foods without having to resort to using the unhealthy and sometimes dangerous alternative supplements and performance enhancing products that are out there on the market. Instead of consuming a chemical protein powder or amino- acid supplement that just push the body out of balance, I am marking my physical performance progress with an aggressive workout program combined with using these amazing foods based on Sunrider's Philosophy of Regeneration™. It is my belief that the general public doesn't give their bodies enough credit for what their amazing "machines" can do for them if they just fed them properly and helped them achieve a harmonious balance among all 5 systems of the body. My motto is "take care of your body and your body will take care of you!" Tune in for more updates in the near future!

Sunrider Leaving MySpace

2009-04-28 22:22

Sunrider International - MySpace

Sunrider has decided not to continue our presence on MySpace after our profile, with all of its content, was removed recently without warning. We are disappointed and frustrated about this situation, as we put a lot of time and effort into our site and enjoyed and appreciated the opportunity to interact and share ideas online with our many MySpace friends. We weren't notified beforehand of any possible problem or violation of MySpace policies, nor were we provided the specific reason (which we requested) for our termination after our profile was removed.

Rest assured Sunrider used a very strong password to protect our MySpace profile, and actively monitored/moderated the profile for inappropriate content.

Our research indicates this is not an uncommon situation; we've a come across a number of people complaining about MySpace profiles being deleted without any prior notification or subsequent explanation.

We apologize for any confusion or inconvenience the removal of the Sunrider MySpace profile may have caused. Please note that we greatly value our online presence (which helps us stay in touch with Sunriders around the world!) and will continue to post on Facebook, Blogger, Twitter, and YouTube.

Sunrider Partners with Southern California Edison to Save Energy and...

2009-04-27 21:06

Sunrider International - Sunrider

Sunrider International was recently awarded a "Program Certificate of Participation" from Southern California Edison (or SCE Corp). The certificate, dated March 2009, acknowledges Sunrider's participation in the "Edison Base Interruptible Demand Response Program," and recognizes Sunrider's partnership with Southern California Edison in a combined effort "to save energy, money, and help protect the environment." SCE Corp. is the largest subsidiary of Edison International and the primary electricity supply company for much of Southern California.

Sunrider's participation in the program resulted in the reduction of 65,740 pounds of CO2 greenhouse gas emissions. This is equivalent to removing five passenger vehicles from the road and powering four homes with electricity for one year. Sunrider's continued participation in the program helps ensure power reliability in the community, lower business energy costs, and defer the need to build new power plants.

Sunrider will continue to follow Federal and State guidelines and participate in energy-saving programs. The following are a few of the projects Sunrider is working on with SCE Corp. in our continuing effort to conserve energy and protect the environment:

Replace all old air-conditioning units with high efficiency, ozone-friendly units.
Install a "building environmental system" (or "building automation system"). This comprehensive, high-tech system will control the temperature and the lighting in our facilities, enabling us to completely monitor and manage all of the energy used in any room of the building.
Install a solar electric system or PV (photovoltaic) system on the roof to generate electricity and reduce electricity costs.

Ronald Reagan Presidential Library & Museum

2009-04-22 18:32

Sunrider International

Sunny and Jonathan Beutler visited the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library & Museum on April 18, 2009. Sunrider International was one of the first major donors to the library, and our name is displayed proudly at the entrance to the library and museum. The library thoroughly documents the lives of Ronald and Nancy Reagan. While there, Sunny and Jonathan visited an exact replica of the Oval Office, saw an actual piece from the Berlin Wall, and walked through the Air Force One airplane that President Reagan and Nancy Reagan actually frequently flew in.

They also had the special opportunity of seeing an original copy of the Magna Carta, which was issued in the year 1215. The Magna Carta is one of the most important documents in the history of democracy and a model for the U.S. Constitution. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library & Museum has informed and inspired more than one million visitors since opening in 1991. Perched on a mountaintop with sweeping views of mountains, valleys, and the Pacific Ocean, this 100-acre site, 45 minutes from downtown Los Angeles, offers memorable experiences for people of all ages.

When Life Lacks Nutrition, Get NuPlus®

2009-04-13 21:43

Sunrider International - NuPlus

Seemingly out of nowhere, your morning just got seriously jam-packed—your pants are taking too long to dry, your four-year old refuses to brush her teeth, your spouse is in bed with the flu, you're late for a business meeting, and, oh yeah, you're so hungry you could gnaw your leg off!

It's times like this when NuPlus® really helps. When you're busy and on-the-go, it's easy to let nutrition go by the wayside. NuPlus® is formulated to be a snack between meals, or a replacement meal. It fills in those nutritional gaps naturally created when life gets chaotic (and you said there wasn't time for breakfast) and your head's about to explode. It's also great for those of you who have your life under control, too.

Dr. Chen has put his magical touch on modern nutritional research and thousands of years of Chinese herbal knowledge to bring the masses this essential, nutritional snack. But don't take my word for it, read below to see what Sunrider employees have to say about NuPlus®.

Mary Rodriguez, Order Dept., says: "I LOVE NuPlus®!! Especially when combined with chilled cranberry juice. It's satisfying as a snack and refreshing!"

1. VitaShake®

VitaShake®

2009-04-02 17:21

Sunrider International

The perfect blend for your life—nutrition, convenience, and flavor!

VitaShake® is a perfect example of a product born from our Philosophy of Regeneration™. This delicious beverage fortifies your body with whole foods rather than a cocktail of chemically processed vitamins, minerals, and proteins. Key ingredients include coix fruit, a powerful antioxidant, and fructooligosaccharide (FOS), a probiotic soluble-fiber carbohydrate.

Unlike other brands that are crammed with sugar and "empty calories," VitaShake® is replete with essential nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. It contains concentrated nutrients from natural whole food sources. Plus, it's a good source of dietary fiber, and it's low in sodium for those concerned with their sodium intake.

People also love how the handy VitaShake® packages are perfect for an on-the-go lifestyle. The contents mix easily with water in a shaker bottle, making a beverage that's tasty, nutritious, and easy to swallow and digest. It's a delicious and easy way to get nutrients!

Speaking of easy, it sure was easy to find Sunrider employees who enjoy this product—read on, to see how wonderfully this beverage blends with their lives!

What Sunriders Like about VitaShake®

"On mornings when I'm in a rush to get to work, I'll mix up a package of VitaShake® in my Sunrider® Shaker Bottle and take it with me. Not only is it tasty, but it's really sustaining and keeps me going well until lunch time. Plus, it's less than 100 calories while jam packed with vitamins. On days when I have more time, especially weekends or after a workout, I'll blend a package of VitaShake® Cocoa in a blender with a banana! It really is a great, healthy treat!"

Patty LaBella
Digital Production

"Drinking VitaShake® with soymilk in the morning is my breakfast when I'm on the go! It's a perfect start to my day—VitaShake® isn't only delicious; it's also filling, so it tames my appetite until lunch time."

Mary Rodriguez
Order Representative

"I'm not really into the whole protein shake thing, but I tried VitaShake®, and I really, really like it! I often have a hard time making it from breakfast to lunch without feeling very, very hungry, but VitaShake® keeps me energized and feeling full. I was happy to learn that it's not chemical based, but I was even happier to hear that it doesn't use animal-based protein powders! Another plus? It's less than 100 calories. Something every girl likes to hear!"

Liz Jernigan
USA Operations

"VitaShake® gives me the energy to keep me going all day! It's so easy to prepare, I just add milk and mix it with fresh bananas and crushed ice. It fills me up and stops the craving in between meals. With its all-natural ingredients, it tastes great and provides the nutrients I need."

Sylvette Martinez
Human Resources

"I must admit I love VitaShake®, especially the strawberry flavor; it's one of my favorite Sunrider® products. I notice that it gives me the energy needed to take on each and every day. I try to drink one serving every morning, as it helps me avoid feeling hungry throughout the day. When I have time, I enjoy making smoothies; I simply add strawberries, bananas, water, and ice and blend them all together for the perfect drink. What's best, I give it to my four kids, and I don't even have to tell them it's good for them; they enjoy it so much they don't care."

Lilia Esquivias
Order Representative

Flavors
Cocoa and Strawberry

Recommendation
Mix one package with 6 to 8 ounces of water in Shaker Bottle. Drink as is or add crushed ice and sweeten to taste.

You can order VitaShake® from our Shop Online!

Kandesn® Room Reopens at Sunrider Headquarters

Sunrider International

Greetings Dear Sunriders,

My name is Julie McLewee, and I am the new Marketing Manager for Kandesn®, Sunrider's fantastic skin care and cosmetics line.

Okay, I admit it. I'm not really new! Many of you will remember that I was the Kandesn® Advisor for many years. I'm so excited to be back at Sunrider International! After moving away, I'm finally back home to where my adventure began in 1993.

Since I've been away, I've gained a lot of additional experience in marketing and training, particularly with skin care and cosmetics. And I am really looking forward to putting myself to work to support all of you in your sales efforts!

What I am most excited about are the phenomenal new products that are available at Sunrider now. Some of them that I have fallen in love with are many of the special treatment products such as:

Dr. Chen® Refining & Lifting Cream
Dr. Chen® Brightening Serum
Oi-Lin® Replenish Gel
Oi-Lin® Rebuild Cream

I have only been using them for a few weeks, but already my skin has gotten back its former unmistakable Kandesn glow!

Now, for the really exciting news: We're happy to announce that we will be reopening the
Kandesn® Training Room, which is located at the back of Sunrider's International Headquarters in Torrance! We will be conducting several workshops per week, and these will be open to everyone, including your guests. As I write to you, we are working on converting the room back into a beautiful training facility, and while I don't have all the logistics on our opening day, rest assured it's just around the corner. At the workshops, you will be exposed to all the features and benefits of the complete Kandesn® line and learn how to use and share these with confidence. Experiencing is believing!

In closing, always remember that Sunrider's line of premier herbal skin care products is a great door opener to the Sunrider business opportunity!

I can't wait to see so many of my old friends and meet many new ones.

Yours in prosperity,

Julie

Quinary®—balance your body from within

2009-03-25 16:56

Sunrider International

Sunrider® products are based on our own unique Philosophy of Regeneration™—it's our blueprint for every Sunrider® product we make. Achieving balance is the guiding principle of this philosophy. We believe that keeping the body nourished and cleansed—and thus balanced—through eating a variety of wholesome foods is essential to enjoying good health and feeling great.

Dr. Chen created Quinary® as a convenient way to keep the body's five major systems in balance. Addressing the body's systems collectively, as well as individually, Quinary® helps maintain health rather than waiting for the body to malfunction and then trying to remedy the problem.

Quinary® helps many of the employees here at Sunrider World Headquarters to feel energized and at their best. Below are a few quotes on what they have to say about this fantastic product, as well as detailed product info.

Testimonials

Quinary® really does seem to make my body feel balanced and healthy. It's also easy to take; I simply add it to water or drink it with my tea and then enjoy the benefits.
Zoe Yang
Web Marketing

I enjoy eating the product because it gives me more energy and makes me feel healthier and focused throughout the day.
Loida Caldejon

Quinary® seems to make my hair healthier and fuller. It really makes me feel great, so I try to take it regularly.
Jinny Hong

Although it is very difficult to achieve with a formula as complex as this one, our blended herbs are maintained without preservatives or synthetic chemicals.

As you see, although it's true that Calli® Herbal Beverage is "steeped in Sunrider tradition," its rich flavor and nutrients make it a modern "Super-Tea."

Many Sunrider employees like to enjoy Calli® at work and in their homes. Read on to see what some of them have to say and for more detailed info about this delicious, nutritious beverage.

1. SunSmile® Fruit & Vegetable Rinse

SunSmile® Fruit & Vegetable Rinse

2009-01-22 18:09

Sunrider International

Ever notice that waxy residue on the fruit (especially the apples!) and vegetables you buy at the supermarket? Do you wonder how much dirt and grime you ingest along with the produce you eat? Well, here's some good news: Sunrider has the natural, safe "solution" to wash away your worries. For peace of mind and cleaner, brighter, better-tasting produce, use SunSmile® Fruit & Vegetable Rinse—every household can use it as part of a healthy lifestyle.

Many Sunrider employees from our corporate office enjoy the benefits of using this great product. Read what they have to say below, along with detailed product info.

"SunSmile® Fruit & Vegetable Rinse is an amazing product. Many air pollutants rest on the outer layers of produce and are not easily removed in the local markets. Running tap water over the produce may not fully clean the foods. SunSmile® Fruit & Vegetable Rinse is very effective. Removing debris or pesticides really enhances the taste of the food!"

Rick Ricardo
Regional Sales

"I was instantly convinced that SunSmile® Fruit & Vegetable Rinse really works since the first time I used it. I was astonished when I saw how much dirt and waxy coating were removed from some apples I had briefly soaked in SunSmile® Fruit & Vegetable Rinse, even after I had washed them with tap water. Since then, I don't hesitate in using it. It gives me peace of mind knowing that my family is truly enjoying the cleanest fruits and vegetables, and getting the most benefit from them without any harmful substances."

Karina Ochoa
Human Resources

"SunSmile® Fruit & Vegetable Rinse is one of my favorite Sunrider® products. The more we learn about the harmful effects pesticides have on our bodies, the more I want to ensure my family and I are eating only the purest foods. Rinsing with water alone is not enough. As part of our healthy lifestyle, my wife and I have made SunSmile® Fruit & Vegetable Rinse part of our daily routine."

Rob Fiore
Marketing Dept.

Kandesn® Moisturizing Lip Colors

1970-01-01 00:00

Sunrider International

Ladies, are you looking for the perfect lipstick? Well, Dr. Chen has developed it for you!

For our second product-focused post, Dr. Chen, Wendy Teng, and a Sunrider employee share their thoughts about what makes Kandesn® Moisturizing Lip Colors so irresistibly appealing. Plus, product info reveals how this lipstick outshines the competition.

"Before Sunrider, I did research and development for another herbal company. I saw how most companies manufactured their lipsticks with animal byproducts and petroleum byproducts and oils. If you burn their lipsticks, you'll smell the unpleasant odors from their ingredients. I didn't want to use those kinds of ingredients because most women 'eat' their lipsticks during the day. So, I created a vegetable-based lipstick, but the company I worked for rejected my formula for being too expensive to produce.

"Now, all Sunrider ladies are fortunate to have the expensive and high-quality lipsticks I always intended to make. Our Kandesn® Moisturizing Lip Colors are formulated with vitamins C and E and use vegetable-origin wax and emollients to hydrate the lips. We self-manufacture them with very strict quality control. I like to think that our lipsticks are 'good enough to eat.'"

Dr. Tei-Fu Chen
Founder and Chairman of the Board
Sunrider International

"Even though my father doesn't wear lipstick, he created a lipstick that had the safety and quality his wife and daughters (and granddaughters) deserved to wear. I wear a Kandesn® Moisturizing Lip Color every day of the year. They go on super-smooth, moisturize my lips, and make my lips look full and attractive. Plus, I don't have to worry about 'eating' them since we make them with high-quality vegetable ingredients. In the past, I tried some other popular department store brands to check out their colors. I noticed that other brands often have a very strong perfume smell and weird taste. I didn't enjoy wearing them at all. Sunrider has spoiled me with the best lipsticks!"

Wendy Teng
Marketing Dept.
Sunrider Corporate Office

"I like Kandesn® Moisturizing Lip Colors. The colors are beautiful, and they moisten and protect my lips, especially in the winter."

Jean Yu
Executive Office
Sunrider Corporate Office

The 2008 Sunrider Corporate Office Holiday Party

2008-12-24 18:08

Sunrider International

The 2008 Sunrider corporate "Winter Holiday Celebration" was the best ever, thanks to the generous donations of many loyal Sunrider IBOs in the field and an exciting entertainment program showcasing the talent and creativity of our own Sunrider staff.

You've heard the phrase "Sunrider is Simply the Best™," but did you know that this term also applied to our corporate office holiday parties? Like many others, I have worked in other companies before Sunrider and I have personally confirmed that very few have ever experienced anything like a Sunrider bash. A "traditional" company holiday party consists of a variance of the following main elements: music, food, and a few door prizes.

Here is the scenario for a "generic company holiday party": Everyone shows up and hangs out with the same small group of people that they always see around the "office water cooler." Music is playing but few are dancing. People eat a little, drink a whole lot more, and at the end they go home and hopefully remember what even happened the night before.

Enter Sunrider: Everybody is "dressed to the nines" looking and feeling like movie stars, they arrive at a hotel lobby around 6pm. The friendly Sunrider Human Resources staff takes the names of all attending employees and places them in a barrel for raffles to be awarded throughout the evening. This year, loyal Sunrider IBOs in the field donated over $17,000.00 as a thank you for the professional and courteous service they always receive from the Sunrider corporate staff. This year Sunrider raffled off prizes like $250, $500, flat-screen TVs, camcorders, laptop computers, entertainments centers, and a grand prize of $1,000.00 before the night was over!

Now let's talk about the Sunrider entertainment. Sure, we always have a DJ on hand to play dance music, but the real fun begins when the Sunrider employees line up on stage to present their department performances. The Chens even give time off during several work weeks for employees to prepare for this part of the show. There is also an unspoken rivalry between the departments, as each department tries to outperform the others. The competition is so fierce that even my wife and I, who work in different Sunrider departments, don't even discuss with each other the details of our own performances! Can you imagine what "buttoned-down" legal and accounting employees will do when you turn them loose on a dance floor? This year we had humorous renditions of Riverdance, Phantom of the Opera, Let's Make a Deal, Latin dance routines, and a lively dance rendition of the movie Madagascar's "I like to move it!"

Many employees were also recognized for 5, 10, 15 and 20 years of loyal service. Three employees celebrated 20 years of employment including the Sales Department's very own Rick Ricardo! Congrats Rick! This type of loyalty simply does not exist anymore in Corporate America, but it still does in Sunrider. The reason why loyalty still exists in the Sunrider corporate office as well as in the field is because of Drs Chen's continuing legacy of providing VALUE to the quality of the lives of millions of people around the world. To be more specific, Dr. Chen's unique Philosophy of Regeneration™, a multimillion dollar investment in exclusive manufacturing and R&D, and a compensation plan that pays business leaders as partners instead of as common salespersons.

To thank the Chens for providing this amazing "health and wealth opportunity" for millions of people around the world, the corporate staff collected $500 to give the Chens a first-class, all-expenses-paid trip to their local Costco supermarket! Yes, after making month-long international business trips around the world, the Chens like to settle back into a normal way of life and frequent their beloved local Costco supermarket (this is a hint for anyone interested in sending a gift to the Chens that they will actually enjoy).

Thanks again to all of the loyal Sunriders in the field who contributed to the best ever Sunrider Winter Holiday Celebration. I also want to provide their names below in special thanks for their generosity and loyalty to Sunrider:

Fortune Delight®

2009-01-02 22:18

Sunrider International

We thought you might be interested to hear what Sunrider employees have to say about using Sunrider® products. Not only do Drs. Chen and their children "test" all Sunrider® products, so do many of our staff. Our staff can truly appreciate all the work, time, and know-how that go into making and marketing these fabulous products. And many employees take advantage of a generous employee discount and purchase products that they use and enjoy in their daily life. In the first of our product series, we'd like to focus on one of our most popular products, Fortune Delight®. The World Headquarters office provides urns of Fortune Delight® for staff to enjoy throughout their workday. See below for comments and more detailed product info about today's featured product.

"I enjoy drinking Fortune Delight® every day. It's the perfect afternoon "pick me up," without having to drink a strong caffeinated beverage. The taste is light and refreshing, and I like it better than other beverages in the vending machine. My favorite Fortune Delight® flavors are raspberry and lemon. I also enjoy having the benefits of drinking green tea without having to brew a hot beverage."

Owen Smigelski
Legal Dept.
Sunrider Corporate Office

"I love the Fortune Delight® cinnamon and Evergreen, which can be combined to make a juice; this combination taken once a day refreshes me and leaves me with energy! The fantastic taste is great for cold weather, seeing as how it's warm and soothing. I recommend this to all my coworkers."

Mary Rodriguez
Order Dept.
Sunrider Corporate Office

"I drink Fortune Delight® every day at work. It has a great taste and aroma, and it refreshes me without giving me the jitters that caffeinated beverages do. I also like the way it supplies me with antioxidants and that it's all-natural, containing no artificial sweeteners. It's a beverage that you can truly feel good about drinking."

A New Year Message from Dr. Chen

2008-12-09 21:43

Sunrider International

2008 has been a year of great change and many challenges for the world. Currently, we are facing a severe economic crisis. After many years, though, I have learned that great challenges often bestow great blessings and opportunities. For example, in 1997 when the China government suddenly banned MLMs, I thought this was the end of Sunrider in China. I thought this was the worst thing that could ever happen to our business. It was a huge challenge, but we changed to a new franchise-like business with retail stores. Looking back, I see that what I thought was the worst thing was now the best thing for our business. Changing to the store system stabilized and legitimized our business in China.

I know that being complacent or doing nothing will cause our business to fail with the current economy. However, I also see the economic crisis as an incredible opportunity. More than ever, people need our business and the income it provides. To maximize this new opportunity and ensure the longevity of our business, my wife and I have decided to make changes to our IBO marketing plan. And in some countries, we will implement a new ABO store marketing plan, similar to our successful plan in China. We made these changes after months of meetings and discussions with Business Leaders and other IBOs. We listened to your feedback and incorporated many of your suggestions.

I know it will take adjustment; I know some of you may not like it. However, I believe this is the best plan for our business and essential to our continued success. Our new ABO and IBO plan does the following:

Helps ABOs open stores for brand awareness, legitimacy, and growth. Gives IBOs the choice to open stores or do direct selling.
Rewards the people who are working and increasing sales volume. Since we pay out from the company sales volume, the people who are working also help increase your income.
Clearly separates business builders from customers.
Helps you earn more retail profits from product sales.
Gives incentive to long-time Business Leaders to increase their sales volume.
Encourages people to find new customers and trainers rather than relying on roll-up.

Sunrider is a business, not a free handout or retirement plan. As a business, we have to keep working, growing, and improving. These changes are for your success. None of these changes mean that more money is going into my pocket, instead of yours. My wife and I feel the immense responsibility to help you succeed and work day and night to fulfill that responsibility.

Price Announcement
Normally, due to increased business costs, we announce a small price increase at the beginning of the calendar year. In 2008, we have experienced soaring costs in raw herbs and materials. However, given the economic pressures that you are all facing, we have decided not to increase prices in January 2009. We will absorb the cost increases and postpone the price increase until summer 2009. We hope that instead of worrying about prices, you will promote the business and products.

Thank you for your loyalty and hard work this year. We wish you a happy, prosperous holiday and new year!

Dr. Tei-Fu Chen

Sunrider's Halloween Celebration

2008-11-18 23:23

Sunrider International

Sunrider's annual Halloween Celebration was ghoulishly festive, with the much-anticipated costume contest being particularly entertaining. This year there was a record number of contestants, who ranged from comical to completely creepy, parading in front of a captive and appreciative audience.

This cavalcade of creative costumes made the judges' task of selecting four winners quite a challenge! All contest participants received a free movie ticket, and the winners each received a check for $50! Congratulations to the winners, and special thanks to all the contestants for making everyone howl with laughter (and fright)!

New Sunrider Internet Policies

2008-10-09 22:52

Sunrider International

As you may know, Sunrider is increasing its presence on the Internet, and recently updated the Business Guide to encourage IBOs to promote their Sunrider business on the Internet. I am an attorney with Sunrider, and helped draft the new language in the Business Guide. Because these changes are exciting, I wanted to give IBOs an overview of the new rules.

The biggest change is that IBOs can now publicize their Sunrider business on the Internet. This includes your own personal or business website, online advertising, and social networking sites such as MySpace and Facebook. IBOs can use Sunrider's text and images on their websites, and can use all of Sunrider's trademarks. If you are drafting your own content, be sure not to make any improper health or income claims. Your content can also include links to any Sunrider website (including Sunrider's main website, Sunrider Shop online, and our blogs), have discussion forums, and explain your experiences with Sunrider's products. YouTube videos, online product demos, or a daily blog—the sky's the limit!

Keep in mind a few guidelines when promoting your Sunrider business online. First, Sunrider does not allow online sales by IBOs (other than through Replicator websites). Second, make sure to use the Sunrider IBO logo, and not the Sunrider logo. Third, you must state that you are independent of Sunrider, and not copy the look and feel of any Sunrider website. Fourth, do not use the name Sunrider or any of Sunrider's product names in any domain name, blog address, online profile, or other online identity.

Sunrider also recommends that IBOs setup their own Replicator website, which they can then promote online. A Replicator website allows IBOs to link to products for sale through Sunrider Shop Online, and will automatically track SV for such purchases.

As with printed promotional materials produced by IBOs, Sunrider needs to review all non-Replicator websites for compliance with the Sunrider® Business Guide. When your website or other online content is finalized, please tell us about it through the form at http://business.sunrider.com/CustService/WebCompliance.asp. Please note that you do not have to submit Replicator websites for compliance review.

This article is just a small overview of the new rules, and IBOs should carefully review parts N and O of Section 3. I. of the August 2008 Business Guide for complete details. If you have any questions about these changes, please contact your upline or local Sunrider Business Services Department.

2008 Olympic Games

2008-09-10 20:14

Sunrider International

This is a bit delayed, but we thought you might want to know how the Olympics went. Our family had the great opportunity to fly on the new Sunrider airplane all together. It was great, and such a blessing to be able to bring all the grandchildren on board with all of their toys and contraptions and not have to worry about being security checked!

So in Beijing during the Olympics, which were quite organized despite some confusions here and there, we were able to meet with top leaders from China for some dinners to review our franchise business there, visit the new Beijing branch office inside the Sunworld Dynasty™ Hotel, meet with our hotel managers to go over our Sunworld Dynasty™ and Sunworld™ hotels' business, and were able to enjoy watching the Olympics in person and on TV. It was a great experience to be there, and to see everything that we wanted to…women's 10m diving was awesome, rhythmic gymnastics was beautiful, tae kwon do and judo (always a passion for the Chen kids) were really interesting and fast, artistic gymnastics made us hold our breaths… we are truly grateful to our parents for giving us the chance of a lifetime to see the Olympics up close and personal.

Of course, with a trip to China, we couldn't pass up on the chance to visit Hong Kong, Taipei, and Seoul. On August 14 in the afternoon, we had a packed meeting with the Hong Kong IBOs (young business leaders and their parents) and our family. My dad talked and motivated them about doing the franchise-like business, my mom introduced all of us, and we all went up on the stage to talk about the role of the younger generation in Sunrider. It was really a great meeting, and everyone was so excited. It was a really different experience to see all of the younger IBOs, some with their parents, coming up onto the stage and telling their parents that their goals need to be higher in Sunrider. Totally cool.

On August 16, we had a dinner banquet at the Sunworld Dynasty™ Hotel in Taipei with the young business leaders there and some came with their uplines or parents as well. With a few hundred IBOs in the audience, a great MC, and good food, we of course did karaoke. The kids in our family all sang "YMCA" and "Lean on Me"…both fun songs. Some of the Taiwan IBOs came up to the stage to sing and to share their goals in Sunrider…the second generation and young IBOs are really good examples of how to keep Sunrider going into the future. My mom also did the lottery drawing there, which was a hit, and a lot of IBOs walked away with new products.

On August 18, we had a big Opportunity Meeting in Seoul with about 50-60 Business Leaders and above who are high performing, and Drs. Chen had an intimate conversation with them about the franchise concept.

On August 19, we had a big Opportunity meeting with Korea's leading IBOs and their new prospects. What a crowd with the room packed to capacity at 240 people. The meeting was exciting, my dad gave a great speech, and the IBOs that came up to share their experience and how much money they've made with Sunrider (their Sunrider testimony) did a really good job. They got the new prospects excited. Later that evening, we had a banquet dinner with the IBOs at the Lotte World Jamsil in Seoul…our staff there had prepared this enormous banner that hung in the center atrium and must have been at least 50 feet long. The entertainment was really fun with the older and younger IBOs all participating, and we had a great lottery of products for the special event donated by my parents and some top IBOs in Korea. This was really exciting, and Marcus was clapping his hands the whole time.

All in all, the trip was great. We got to see all of our IBO friends in Asia, traveled on the best airplane in the world, and got to spend time together as a family…it's not so bad mixing business with leisure. That's the only way it's done in our family, and we enjoyed it a lot. Hopefully we'll see some of you on our airplane some day traveling and inspiring others to optimize their life around the world.

Post-Convention Update

2008-08-06 18:35

Sunrider International

I hope all of you had a great time at the Convention! I had a wonderful time meeting many of you, holding the young IBO workshop, and chasing my daughter around the Hall during the general sessions. Here's a quick status update on the products and marketing tools. I know you are all dying to get them!

New Products

Of course everyone wants to know when you can buy the new products. I don't deal directly with this issue, but I do know that it's a rather complex process. It first depends on how well it sold in your country during convention, and the sales volume and recruiting rate in your country. We can't launch new products if there are only a few people there to buy them. We also have to register the product and comply with local regulations. I know that's not the answer you want because you want the products now. Hopefully, you bought enough products at Convention. But, I have better news. The new Oi-Lin® and some of the new product packaging should be phasing in soon over the next few months.

New Marketing Tools/Website

I oversee the writing, editing, look and feel of the marketing tool, but I don't handle the printing or translating so I'm just estimating the time on these "hot" tools we are working on.

Sunrider® Training CD-ROM – we've made some revisions and most countries should be in production soon and have it in the next 3 months or sooner.

Ingredients Brochures – Dr. Chen told me to add more ingredients to the brochures so we are doing that. Some countries may not have this brochure due to government regulations. Estimated time is 1-2 months.

Website – It should be ready in 3-4 months.

We have many other tools in development like a new product catalog, new brochure on being environmentally friendly, and new product flyers. There's lots of exciting changes and we hope you enjoy them.

Grand Convention News

1970-01-01 00:00

Sunrider International

It's July, time for the annual Grand Convention, and this year's event is truly grand in every way. The words "inspirational, motivational, sensational" only begin to describe it. The Convention provides the ultimate chance to learn from Drs. Chen and top business leaders, enjoy the Sunrider lifestyle, and connect with fellow Sunriders. Optimize your life with Sunrider!

Convention Countdown

The Grand Opening & Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony of the Los Angeles Manufacturing Plants is Wednesday, July 23. Drs. Chen and Sunriders everywhere are looking forward to this monumental day! Make sure to see the announcement and slideshow of these state-of-the-art facilities at the Sunrider website.

Everything Under the Sun!

With its ideal weather, great location, and world-famous attractions, Anaheim is the perfect place to combine Sunrider business and pleasure. Many Sunrider events will be held at the Anaheim Convention Center— the largest convention center on the West Coast of the United States. Dramatic, modern, and sophisticated, this California landmark is also a cornerstone in the new 1,100-acre district called the Anaheim Resort, which includes the Disneyland theme parks, richly landscaped pedestrian walkways, and the Anaheim GardenWalk—the new hot spot in Orange County that's described as "an oasis of dining, shopping, and entertainment."

What to Wear

Business wear is appropriate for meetings and General Sessions. Formal attire or black-tie should be worn for Gala Evening events.

Light, comfortable clothing and comfortable walking shoes are recommended for tours. Hats and sunglasses may also be worn for sun protection.

We also recommend that you bring a light-weight sweater or jacket in case of cooler temperature fluctuations in meeting rooms and air-conditioned buses.

Anaheim Weather

Typical summer weather is sunny and warm in the daytime with cool evenings. The average high temperature in July is 84°F/29°C. For a current weather forecast, click here.

Marketing Updates

2008-12-09 23:33

Sunrider International

It's been a long time since I posted, but I wanted to give you a behind-the-scenes look at the many projects we're working on in the Marketing Department.

Convention, Convention, Convention!

Obviously, we are working like crazy in preparation for Convention. In addition to building and maintaining the convention website, we've prepared welcome videos, which I hope you've all seen.

We're working with a great production company to bring a high-tech, high-touch feel to the Convention. I don't want to say too much, but it will be different from anything you've seen at our Convention before. I'm also very excited for the LA Plant Ribbon Cutting so you can see how incredibly huge and state-of-the-art it is. It's been a headache and nightmare to move, but it's all for the great purpose of making the best products.

New Products and New Packaging

Based on the convention pre-order sales report, I can see you are all dying to get your hands on our new products. John even has IBOs calling him to get samples. We're busy finalizing all of the packaging, components, brochures, and flyers for the new products. I hope you all were able to order them because they are fantastic. I especially love the Eye Cream and MetaShaper™.

During Convention, you'll also get to see the new product packaging for our tried-and-true products. This has been long overdue. If you look at our new promotional flyer for Fortune Delight® you can get a sneak peek at the new look of our packaging. I really love the new designs and can't wait for them to get phased into production.

New Marketing Tools

This brings me to the new marketing tools we're developing. Do you like having the Product Catalog e-book on the website? I'm planning on doing more e-books. We'll also be posting a new product flyer every week for the Starter Pack products. We're also developing a new Company Profile, new Sunrider® Training CD-ROM (which will also go online), Sunrider® Training Workbook, new Sunrider Simply the Best® video, new Compensation Plan marketing tools, and more. I think you'll be pleased with the new tools we have coming your way. Most of them were based on your suggestions.

I know we are working on even more projects, but I have to get back to work. By the way, remember to place your orders for promotional products before the end of the month! I'll see you at Convention!

Sometimes, our customers and IBOs wonder if we use organic ingredients. Organic food is produced without using most conventional pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, bioengineering, or ionizing radiation. A government agency must inspect and certify the farm before the food can be labeled "organic."

Many of our products use herbs and plants that grow in the wild in their natural environment. I believe nature is the best "farmer"—man cannot successfully duplicate many of nature's best creations. That's why we prefer using ingredients grown by nature rather than organic farms.

As a manufacturer of health foods, I am especially concerned about the environment. Because of pollution, many foods, even organic foods, may contain unacceptable levels of heavy metals. We monitor the heavy metal content of our herbs and often reject hundreds of pounds of herbs that do not meet our strict standards.

In addition to the heavy metal content, I also care about how our foods are handled. All herbs and plants, whether grown in the wild, in an organic farm, or in a traditional farm, have dirt, pests, and other contaminants. We take the extra steps of cleaning the herbs by hand and machine rather than grinding and/or irradiating the herbs along with their contaminants.

We also use a trade-secret manufacturing process to extract and concentrate the beneficial essences from our herbs. This makes the final product much more powerful and effective than just mixing the herbs on the ingredient listing.

I want all of you to have confidence that Sunrider uses the best ingredients and makes the best products.

The 2008 Regional Leadership Conference Cruise—an Amazing...

2008-12-09 23:33

Sunrider International

I must admit that when it was decided that this year's Regional Leadership Conference will take place on a cruise, I was a little disappointed. I am only telling you this, since it turned out much better then I expected and you really should keep reading…

After months of preparations, 270 IBOs from Hungary, Western Europe, Israel, Russia and Eastern Europe reported to the dock of the cruise ship "Navigator of the Seas" in Barcelona, on a rainy noon hour of May 10, 2008. When we saw the 15-storey (above water) structure that was about to sail us, we were astonished, and seeing the enormous ship made us unbelievably curious and filled with anticipation for things to come.

After our passports were checked, we entered the ship, and I felt like a little boy that has to see it all without missing a thing. I found myself wandering among the luxurious mall, the theater halls, and the basketball and softball courts. I couldn't miss the amazing gym and dining rooms, the ice skating rink, the children's deck and much more, until we were called to attend the luxurious dinner and were already on our way to our first port stop in Marseille.

On the first night, Dr. and Mrs. Chen hosted a private dinner with 6 IBOs from Western Europe. During dinner, the Chens took the opportunity to teach and train the attending IBOs and emphasize important points about business building and how Sunrider has developed a unique and innovative model for building a franchise-like business for the benefit of its IBOs.

On the next day we woke up to the sound of the announcer welcoming us to Marseille, a typical port city full of seafood restaurants and coffee shops. After a big breakfast, we went on a short tour of the city and visited its fascinating fish market (the smell was certainly not fascinating…). Watching a live octopus trying to sneak away from the display shelf it was placed on, and the fish merchant forcing it back into place was definitely a unique experience.

That afternoon we were already on our way to Sardinia. On the ship, the last preparations for dinner were already being made, and the chamber men gave us wonderful service and cleaned our rooms for the evening. One of the Israeli IBOs met me on my way to dinner and she asked me wonderingly, "Why do we deserve all this? And without paying for it…"*

On the second evening, the Chens had dinner with six Israeli IBOs and, of course, used the time between courses to train and teach the participants.

The Western European and Hungarian IBOs started their third day attending training sessions, in small 30-people groups. During the sessions Dr. Chen emphasized the importance of the 4-points approach meeting and 6-points opportunity meeting. Dr. Chen also stressed how crucial it is that all IBOs use the same terms and send out the same message.

After the Chen's training, the groups dispersed, and we all went to shore in Cagliari, the capital city of the Italian island of Sardinia. In spite of the slightly bleak weather, we went to tour the city with an Israeli tour guide that lives there. Our guide took us to the "Elephant Tower," from which we had a beautiful view of the entire city and port, and to the largest local church. We finished our tour with a taste of excellent Italian ice cream and went back on the ship. One thing that truly amazed me during the tour is that although over 3,000 tourists came to the city on our ship, local businessmen still closed their businesses in the afternoon, for their famous siesta. We left Sardinia and set sail towards Sicily.

That night, after another luxurious dinner, which the Chens shared with 6 Hungarian IBOs, we all watched a spectacular ice-skating show, which generated heavy applause from the amazed audience.

We arrived in Palermo early on the fourth morning and went on a long tour day. Most of the Israeli group went sightseeing together. Palermo is beautiful; it has modern shopping squares as well as a lovely old city, and the people of Palermo are very welcoming and hospitable.

The Vucciria open market place was impossible to miss; we were pulled in by the wonderful smell from the food stands, the fresh fruit and vegetables, the Italian cheese delicatessens, with cheeses you can smell from a mile away, and of course, the daily masterpiece of the market—a freshly caught swordfish put on display.

After an exhausting 7-hour tour, we went back on the ship, and I met another IBO. She told me that she met a friend from Israel on the ship, and when her friend asked her what she was doing there, she answered that she earned a full-expense-paid cruise, working with Sunrider.* Her friend could not believe her ears. She said she always heard about Sunrider, but she never thought the stories were true. That woman joined Sunrider and became an IBO that night.

On the fourth evening the Chens had dinner with 5 IBOs from Eastern Europe. The Chens emphasized to the participants the great earning potential of the Sunrider business, and told them that many people have already achieved their optimal goals working with Sunrider.

We spent the fifth day, during which most of the training meetings were held, sailing back to Barcelona. That morning, Israeli and Eastern European IBOs met with Dr. and Mrs. Chen in small groups, for an almost personal training. During the meetings, the Chens emphasized how important it is to train your downline and teach them how to talk instead of just letting them listen to you. The Chens said it is important to correct your downline while they are talking, in order to help them present the 4-point approach and 6-point opportunity meeting fluently and professionally. The Chens encouraged everyone to keep training to make their approach believable.

At noon, the Chens held a general session for all 270 participating IBOs, during which they stressed the importance of duplication. Dr. Chen said recruiting 10 IBOs a month is not enough, you have to teach them how to duplicate your actions, so they can recruit 10 more people per month themselves.

At the end of the training session, Mrs. Chen asked several IBOs from different countries to come on stage and answer questions about subjects learned during the convention.

In conclusion I would like to say this was an amazing experience for me, one that I will no doubt repeat with my family.

At the end of the fifth day, the Israeli and Eastern European groups had a meeting to sum up the convention, and all IBOs said they had an extraordinary experience, an experience that they could only have thanks to Sunrider.* Some of our IBOs even asked to stay on the ship for its next cruise…

Sincerely,

2008 Sunrider Leadership Conference—Mediterranean Cruise, May 10th...

2008-12-09 23:33

Sunrider International

We really wanted to make this year's Europe Leadership Conference something very special. An event that would truly show the Sunrider Lifestyle! After discussing it last year with Mrs. Chen, we both agreed that a Mediterranean cruise would be the way to sail, as we could enjoy the beauty of the Mediterranean coastline and countryside.

No other part of the world is so richly imbued with history and culture, and blessed with such spectacular scenery as Europe. The cruise vacation brought us to some of the most exciting ports in Europe. The days ashore presented an invitation to adventure, education, and enjoyment, discovering the beauty of the Mediterranean and over 25 centuries of history, art and culture. Some of the IBOs had never been on a cruise and were not sure about the idea, but on the last day, I was so happy when so many came to see me to say that the cruise was amazing and that they had already called their downline to let them know what they had missed!

Want to know more?

The first port: Provence (Marseille), France. Some of the IBOs went on a city tour that was a journey through the historical and maritime past of Marseille, known as the melting pot of Europe. They passed Marseille's large industrial harbor after departing the pier and headed towards the city center. En route to the Notre-Dame de la Garde Cathedral, they viewed the historic, older section of the city. Notre-Dame de la Garde is a beautiful basilica set high atop the hills above the Old Harbor, and its interior is finished with multicoloured marble mosaics. The journey from the Cathedral to Longchamp Palace took them along a road that runs alongside the sea with a stop to take photos and to view the beautiful islands guarding the entrance to Marseille. The final stop was at Longchamp Palace, a monumental castle adorned with magnificent fountains, waterfalls and gardens.

The second port: Cagliari, Sardinia. Some IBOs went on a sightseeing tour that allowed them to discover the hidden beauties of this magnificent city. It began with a drive from the pier to the city walls where they admired the Roman amphitheatre. Then they visited the National Archaeology Museum to discover many archaeological finds like the typical Sardinian small bronzes and the Nora Stone (ninth century B.C.), where Sardinia is mentioned for the first time. They also walked in the heart of the medieval city and explored its beauty.

The third port: Palermo, Sicily. Italy, probably the most beautiful country (my Italian roots might be affecting my judgment). Palermo was named by the Ancient Greeks as "Panormus," meaning "all port." Its beauty, history and elegance were revealed as some of the IBOs decided to travel the streets of Palermo. The city is noted for its rich history, culture, architecture and gastronomy, which played an important role throughout much of its existence; it is over 2,700 years old! They walked along the Via Liberta, considered to be the most important street in the city because of its size and the double row of plane trees that line this majestic way. They admired Teatro Politeama, the main theatre of the town built in the 19th century and strolled along the Via Ruggero Settimo, also known as the salon of Palermo because of the elegance of its shops. What an experience!

It was such an exciting week that I forgot to mention that the conference, hosted by Drs. Chen, was held onboard the impressive ship "Navigator of the Seas." Over 270 Independent Business Owners from all over Europe, Hungary, Israel, Russia and South Africa enjoyed the Sunrider Lifestyle while sailing through the deep blue Mediterranean Sea.

The Navigator of the Seas is one of the biggest vessels in the world, with so much to see and do onboard. She offers amazing features like a spa, gym, rock-climbing wall, ice-skating rink, an indoor shopping mall-like promenade, as well as fine food in the magnificent three-storey dining room. Every night finishes off with top-class entertainment in the elegant theatre.

The Leadership Conference meetings were held in the ship's Conference Centre and provided attendees with inspiration and motivation. Dr. Chen shared his powerful Business Advice by explaining the 4-step Sunrider approach and the 6-point opportunity meeting. He reminded everyone to train their Downlines in this method, to practice the various steps with them and to talk about the income potential that Sunrider can bring to every Independent Business Owner. Sunrider has already helped many people around the world achieve their optimal goals.* Mrs. Chen followed with her special energy and enthusiasm as she conducted the New IBO Training and tested the Business Leaders on Frequently Asked Questions. Drs. Chen also presented new products that will be launched at the upcoming Grand Convention in Anaheim, California. Mrs. Chen ended the meeting by surprising everyone with a raffle where happy winners received samples of the innovative new products.

It truly was a memorable week and another example of how Sunriders from all over the world can enjoy the fantastic Sunrider lifestyle and optimize their lives.*

Next is the event of the year—the Grand Convention in Anaheim, California!

Come and join thousands of other IBOs for another unforgettable experience. Register on-line and mark your calendars, July 21–26.

Looking forward to seeing you in beautiful Anaheim, California!

IBOs Meet with Success at SR HQ

2008-12-09 23:33

Sunrider International

Business Leader training meetings were held at Sunrider World Headquarters April 23–25. During this time Dr. and Mrs. Chen shared their knowledge and hospitality with two groups of specially invited IBOs who arrived from around the world. In addition to attending meetings, IBOs from

Canada

China

Malaysia

, the

USA

, and

Taiwan

were given tours of the Chen Art Gallery, the Botanical Garden, and the incredible new manufacturing facilities in Los Angeles. The invitees were also treated as guests of the Chens—dining with them at a local restaurant and at their beautiful home, where they enjoyed great food and company.

When they got down to business, the meetings were fast-paced, full of energy, and packed with practical training. As always, they were also punctuated with insights from both Chens.

Dr. Chen got everyone thinking when he posed the following question:

"When a lady goes out shopping, what does she think about first? When you shop for a new car, what do you consider first?"

Personally, I was stumped. My wife wasn't there to help me with the first question. And it had been years since I bought a new car…

Dr. Chen quickly provided the answer though: "The Brand."

Dr. Chen elaborated by saying, "Brand is first, style next, and material last. Likewise, "When you buy a car, first you think of the brand."

Dr. Chen went on to describe how it's up to all IBOs to increase the brand recognition of Sunrider. He stated the importance of presenting "a unified look, approach, and communication," which helps establish a strong, readily identifiable brand image.

Dr. Chen had this to say about the Sunrider opportunity:

"Why is Sunrider's franchise-like business the best? Let's compare it to some other ways one can try to make money:

"Buying and renting out real estate property is too much hassle. And the rent may not even cover the interest on a bank loan. Stock markets have too much fluctuation, too much risk. A franchise business can be good but it takes a BIG initial investment.

"Sunrider's franchise-like business is the best. Sunrider takes the hassle out of owning a business. No inventory, virtually no risk—you simply use Sunrider's time-tested [26 years!] system and support. You can build an enterprise like McDonald's, but without the trouble and at a low cost. And Sunrider is different from other network marketing companies because as a Sunrider IBO, you're the boss—the owner of your own franchise-like business—not a salesperson."

Mrs. Chen covered a range of topics, including the need to develop a 2^nd generation of business leaders:

"Have your business continue into the future. Building a strong support system will enable you to have financial freedom when you retire. We need to do better about explaining the income potential of Sunrider to the 2^nd generation. Encourage your kids just like I'm encouraging my kids to take over the business someday. Have them choose Sunrider, because we have the greatest income potential and you can help people everywhere improve the quality of their lives. Bring your children to the Grand Convention in July—my daughters Sunny and Wendy will be teaching a workshop especially designed for the next generation."

Dr. and Mrs. Chen also talked about the importance of setting big optimum goals and the power of having a big dream. Dr. Chen helped wrap up the training by providing a personal example of how through having a dream and working hard, anything is possible:

While growing up as a child, his family was poor and they didn't have much. His prized possession was a broken toy airplane that he'd found. He loved that plane though and fixed it up the best he could. He played with the plane every day and dreamed that someday he'd be able to fly on a real plane and see the world.

Today he does fly on an airplane—the Sunrider Corporate Airplane—which he uses to fly around the world with our IBOs, living the Sunrider dream.

Another thing to look forward to is the unveiling of new Sunrider® products, which will be available on Shop Online in just a few days. One product that's already causing a stir through word of mouth is MetaShaper™. Dr. Chen originally developed this product for himself, but after a decade of research and refinement he's now eager to share this exclusive formula and its extraordinary benefits with Sunriders. In short, MetaShaper™ is designed to make you feel healthier and more energetic. Combined with a healthy diet and exercise, it can help you achieve fantastic body-shaping results.

Another highly anticipated product is Dr. Chen™ Brightening Serum. The effects of time and sun overexposure spare no one, damaging the skin, and causing dark spots and a dull, uneven appearance. Don't worry though, help's on the way! This revolutionary formula is gentle, yet intensive, and is designed to even out skin tone and improve suppleness. Antioxidants will also help protect skin from future harm. This product promises to be extremely popular so get yours before we run out!

We know you'll like these and the other new products that'll be available soon. And we're looking forward to seeing you in Anaheim for what'll be a most memorable event.

IBOs from Korea Enjoy Leadership Tour of Japan

2008-12-09 23:33

Sunrider International

Japan is known to most Koreans as "a country that is near and at the same time far." Albeit Japan is only a couple hours' flight away from Korea, I never had the chance to visit Japan except for one short business trip in 2000. I didn't have a chance to see much of Japan then; all you normally see during a business trip is the hotel where you're staying, the office where you conduct your business, and airplanes (lots of them) at the airport. Thus Japan indeed had been a country near and far to me until I took 180 IBOs to Japan for our Leadership Tour 2008 from 30th March to 03rd April. This time I even brushed up on my Japanese language (though it was only "survival Japanese").

Contrary to our expectation, the weather was not on our side when we arrived at Narita Airport on the 30th March. Because of the rain and heavy wind, the wind-chill in Tokyo was very low that day, making us almost shiver without a windbreaker. But even this bad weather couldn't stop our IBOs who were eager to explore Japan as much as possible. After having managed to warm up their bodies with hot oden soup over lunch, they got impatient to "hit the road" again in the rain. Our first stop was the Toyota Automobile Showroom, located at Odaiba Island, where our IBOs made trial rides in various new models of Toyota cars. After having tried a "virtual drive" on the stage, I could overhear a few IBOs talking about "buying that baby soon" with their Sunrider money.

People got soaked in the heavier rain during the walk back to the tour bus and their minds were already immersed in taking a hot spring bath. All of us changed into traditional Japanese bathrobes called Yukada (they had various colors and designs available for us to choose). To confess, I had a hard time breathing; I tied a Yukada belt too tight to hide my "potbelly" in front of our IBOs. Before reaching the bath, there was an area like a market place where many kiosks were arranged in rows and that were selling very tempting munchies and cute little souvenirs. Though dinner was expected right after our bath, many people had to wrestle with the temptation of those aromatic foods while moving into the bath.

As an old Korean saying goes, "People become great friends after taking a hot bath together naked," because there's nothing to 'hide' in that bath. Accordingly, I think I've created even stronger bonding with our male IBOs from this experience. It was so relaxing to soak our bodies in an open-air hot bath, and I almost fell asleep in the water but an IBO let me know that it was time to go. Before I move on to our dinner part, I must tell you about a "culture shock" that I experienced in the bath: The body-scrubbers and attendant in the men's bath were women! Of course they were in work uniforms, but we were all naked. The other Korean male IBOs and I were busy trying to cover ourselves, but the workers simply acted calm in front of us so we realized it was no big deal. "When in Rome, do as the Romans do"…Right?

The dinner was just spectacular! Dining tables were arranged in a huge room with Japanese Tatami floor. All 180 IBOs sat on the floor and were decked out in a dazzling display of colorful Yukada robes. And the dainty food was almost too beautiful to eat! Because New Year practically starts on 01st April in Japan for businesses and schools, they traditionally have a ceremony called Kakami-Hiraki literally meaning "breaking a wine pot" to open the New Year. I invited four of our most senior IBOs (two males and two females) to break the wine pot together and to propose a toast to "Sunrider Money" for everyone. After dinner, we arrived at the New Otani Hotel.

The Monday morning of 31st March was rainy and windy, even worse than the previous day, during the long drive to Yokohama. Fortunately though, the weather cleared up by the time we arrived in Yokohama, and bright sunshine welcomed us when we started a sightseeing tour of the city. The tour included beautiful Yamashita Park that stretched along the shoreline of Yokohama Harbor, bustling streets and shops in China Town, and the modern and clean Minato Mirai 21 area. Upon our return to Tokyo, we visited one of the symbols of Japan, the Imperial Palace. Though allowed to see only the outer wall and garden, we appreciated a tasteful garden that was classical and tranquil. The Palace definitely had something peculiar that appealed to our artistic sentiment even just from outside. Next stop was Ginja Street, one of the most popular streets for tourists because of the latest fashion, energetic young people, neon signs, restaurants, bars, and galleries. Our IBOs ventured into the busy streets of Ginja for a while to stroll around and to find good bargains.

Bright spring sunshine blessed us on 01st April, the day we were to climb Mt. Fuji, the highest mountain (3,776M) in Japan. Instead of saying "to climb Mt. Fuji," I should say "to visit the mouth of Mt. Fuji," which still allowed us to access and enjoy the splendor of the mountain, as tour guides had worried in previous days about the weather affecting accessibility. Japan is a polytheistic country believing that deities or divine spirits reside in all things in nature. And after experiencing this majestic place, we all surely believed that there must be a divine spirit in Mt. Fuji. The mountain was fully covered with snow and stood against an emerald-blue sky shrouded in mystical layers of clouds. The indescribable striking beauty of blue, brown, green, and white in harmony made us not only inspired with awe but also fascinated with the grandeur of Mt. Fuji. Leaving the holy mountain behind us, we went for a sightseeing trip of Hakone— riding an excursion boat in Ashi Lake (the lake was 723M above the sea level), which is located in the Owaqutani Valley, and another hot spring bath at Morinoyu Onsen (one for the road!).

After a thrilling tour program and fun activities for three days in Japan, there came the day for us to get even more excited, as we got the chance to learn from the ever-passionate Drs. Chen about how to succeed big and quickly with the Sunrider business opportunity! The seminar took place at the Toshi Center in Tokyo on 02nd April. During the seminar, Dr. Chen delivered an impassioned message to 180 Korean IBOs about how Sunrider offers the best business opportunities, which are even better than opportunities offered by conventional franchise businesses. Thus, in order to realize our dreams and achieve success, Dr. Chen stated that IBOs should focus on promoting Sunrider's income potential, selling product, setting optimum goals, and building your organization through the Starter Pack. His powerful speech filled Korean IBOs with enthusiasm and motivation.

When Mrs. Chen took over the stage for the second session, I could see that some IBOs started to get nervous because they were aware that Mrs. Chen would ask them randomly about how to conduct New IBO Training and how to answer the FAQs. However, Mrs. Chen relieved the tension in the room with a joke, saying, "Nobody wants to make eye contact with me, but it's fine because Steve gave me a name list of 180 people in this room." Everybody laughed hard, and it was a very useful session for existing IBOs to learn how to train their downlines efficiently. It was a very fun and enjoyable session after all, because Mrs. Chen first picked one IBO from the name list to answer a question and then she went on from that IBO's uplines by asking, "Who's your upline?" rather than picking other people from the list. Korean IBOs were quite good in answering her questions but they also felt very grateful in learning more professional ways of handling such FAQs.

The finale of Sunrider Korea's Leadership Meeting 2008 in Japan was the Gala Dinner held later that evening at the New Otani Hotel. It kicked off with a traditional Japanese taiko drum performance, and Drs. Chen and Sunny Beutler entered the room to the majestic beats of these drums and a standing ovation from the Koran IBOs. Then we all enjoyed a fantastic buffet dinner, followed by performances of different IBO groups. The performances included a Taekwondo martial arts dance featuring a breaking demonstration of thick pine boards (all performed by female IBOs—tough Korean women!), a very cute replica of "Tell-Me Dance" that has won sweeping popularity among Koreans, and a "Rap & Dance" that used the Starter Pack as the theme.

The highlight of the evening when Dr. Chen went on the stage to sing "Can't help falling in love with you" while fixing his gaze on Mrs. Chen, sitting below the stage. With warm-hearted applause from the audience, Dr. Chen then invited Mrs. Chen and Sunny onto the stage for another song together, followed by karaoke songs by various leaders from the VIP table. During the karaoke, In-Ja Park did very comical performances in front of the singers, making us (and the Chens) shake our sides with laughter. The memorable night came to an end with Drs. Chen's new product introduction and lucky draw. Various new products were introduced and given away (well before the official new product launching at the Grand Convention) to Korean IBOs. They looked forward to the launching of these new products and at the same time they were proud of Dr. Chen's expertise and the way he continually develops such wonderful products for them.

As the saying goes, all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. And, Korean IBOs were given a chance to work hard and at the same time to have fun through this Leadership Tour and Seminar in Japan.

Dr. and Mrs. Chen Host a Truly Korean Experience at the 2008...

2008-12-09 23:33

Sunrider International

I had visited Korea a number of times, and as the saying goes, you never get tired of falling in love with something beautiful. Korea is such a place in my heart. And I talk a lot about "love" in this blog because love was the subject of our theme travel. For our 75 IBOs from Singapore and Malaysia, my colleagues and myself, the minute we touched down on Seoul, we were transformed into young lovers of Korea's culture, film stars, beauty, kimchi …. and not forgetting the friendship that bonded us as one Sunrider family.

We started off on a blissful Sunday morning on 16th March, to Chuncheon and Namiseom Island, which are the location places for the shooting of that famous Korean drama, "Winter Sonata". This is one of the most popular TV series in Korea, Hong Kong, China, Japan and even Malaysia. The series is built around the romance of falling in love for the first time….. and for all time (sigh …) Well, you should have been there to see, touch and experience all the lovely mementoes, souvenirs, pictures and the actual settings where the filming was done. I'm quite sure you would be just as swept off your feet by the romance of it all!

We were brought back to reality when we were told that there is a small ostrich farm on Namiseom Island, and one could race with the ostriches while riding bicycles. But we didn't take up the challenge!

Our next stop was the Aqua World, which is an indoor water park with numerous therapeutic hot springs such as pine-tree spring and fruit-extract spring, saunas including Jade Sauna, Charcoal Sauna and Amethyst Sauna. We loved the Health Pool Zone and Amusement Zone. There was also a Water Slide for our young-at-heart IBOs, a massage corner for women and even a Couple Bath for couples.

The Monday morning of 17th March saw us at Mt. Sorak National Park. It was really the most awesome experience for all of us. Everything was covered with snow (well, almost everything!). The Park's spiky mountain peaks, crystal clear ponds, rock formations, valleys and waterfalls were so serene, just like a Korean painting.

We explored Abai Village, which is the filming location of another famous Korean series, "Endless Love". Abai Village has the distinction of being the heroine, Eun-Seo's hometown. As we walked along the quaint homes and stores that were reminiscent of the '60s and '70s, we felt really connected to the tragic heroine and how she must have felt when she had to leave her lover.

We also visited the majestic Shinheung Temple, a massive and beautiful architecture which was built by a monk named Chanjang during the Shilla Dynasty. We easily agreed with our Guide that this is by far the most impressive temple in the Sorak Mountain area!

From romantics, we were turned into children (albeit BIG children) on Tuesday, 18th March at the Everland Resort. This is South Korea's largest theme park and it has been ranked sixth in the world. We had lots of fun, starting at the European Adventure and enjoying the thrills and spills that took us through the vibrant themes of Magic Land, American Land and Global Fair. It was a great opportunity to snap photos, enjoy the spectacular shows and the rides.

Well, all this made us pretty adventurous ……. for some retail therapy! Our guide took us to Dongdaemun Market, one of the major markets in Korea with over 20 shopping malls that specialize in wholesale clothing, and we found some very good bargains for clothes, accessories and shoes.

On Wednesday 19th March, Dr. and Mrs. Chen hosted a leadership training seminar for a small group of selected IBOs. They were given very extensive training on business concept, the importance of setting optimum goals, business building, and duplication. They also were trained on frequently asked questions, new IBOs training, leadership and recognition.

Concurrent with this training seminar, the rest of our IBOs toured Sunrider Korea's new office. They were very impressed with the office and took many photos to share with their downlines.

Later, this group of IBOs continued with the last day of the tour and visited a Kimchi factory for an inside look at Korea's most relished food. Kimchi, as many would know, is the country's national heritage and the main staple of Korean daily diet. We learnt that it is traditionally prepared with Chinese cabbage, red pepper, garlic, salted fish, ginger and other natural ingredients, then stored underground in clay containers to ferment for at least four weeks.

Did we say that this was the last stop for our IBOs? Hold your horses! Our IBOs would never return to our hotel without one last shopping spree, and this time they went to Myeongdong Market. Our IBOs had a fantastic time shopping at what is tagged as the trendiest, most fashionable shopping district in the country. They found a variety of stores from upscale boutiques and fashion malls to small stalls, and bought quality brand-name fashion wear, accessories and luxury items. They were so proud and happy to pay for everything with their Sunrider money and said that they truly enjoyed the Sunrider successful lifestyle!*

Finally, after all that shopping, sightseeing, photo-taking, having fun and enjoying Korean food, we were all ready to settle down for what everyone had come for: Dr. and Mrs. Chen's Leadership Training Seminar. Our IBOs joined more than 400 IBOs from Hong Kong and Taiwan at the prestigious Imperial Palace Hotel, South Korea.

Our IBOs were excited and thrilled with the Chens' presence. They found Dr. Chen's advice on promoting SR's potential income and SR's products, aiming for the optimum goal, and recruiting more than 10 IBOs every month particularly useful. They also felt that they understood more clearly why Sunrider is better than a franchise business and the role of IBOs in the Company.

Our IBOs were nervous when Mrs.Chen took over the rest of the session as they were aware that Mrs.Chen would ask them how they conducted their New IBOs Training as well as the FAQs.

However, Mrs. Chen put everyone at ease, and when she called participants to answer her questions, they actually found the experience fun, enjoyable and challenging, albeit slightly nerve-wrecking!

In fact, our IBOs were grateful when Mrs. Chen pointed out their mistakes, as they felt that they could remember better this way. Under Mrs. Chen's training, they understood why such training should be conducted regularly especially for new IBOs.

At the Gala Dinner later that evening, it was truly a glamorous Korean finale to a wonderful week. Dr. and Mrs. Chen got everyone to join in the celebration with their friendliness. Dinner was absolutely delicious and everyone loved the Classical Music Performance by the Korea Tourism Board, as well as the various performances put up by the different countries' IBOs. From Malaysia, we had two IBO performances and from Singapore, there was one. They were really spectacular to watch as our IBOs danced and sang, and got everyone into the party mood!

Another highlight was when Dr. and Mrs. Chen went on stage to sing, and were greeted by overwhelming applause. The Chens also invited the leaders from the VIP table to sing on stage, and our leaders did just that! Our leaders drew a lot of support from the audience for their hearty, albeit slightly off-tune, singing and everyone enjoyed the fun of it all.

The Chens were very generous and gave the new IBOs valuable gifts of Sunrider's new products, which will be launched at the Grand Convention in July 2008. The new IBOs were really touched by the Chens' generosity. The magical night finished off with a karaoke session and disco, and as the saying goes, the sun never goes down for those who work hard and play hard!

The 2008 Arnold Sports Festival was a big hit for Sunrider...

2008-12-09 23:33

Sunrider International

I'm excited to tell our blog readers a little about Sunrider International's participation both as a sponsor and a competitor at the 2008 Arnold Sports Festival, a 3-day event that promotes "a weekend of sports and a lifetime of fitness." Held in Columbus, Ohio from February 29 to March 2, it's the largest annual sports festival in the world, with 17,000 athletes competing in a wide variety of events—only the Olympics are bigger and they occur every four years. The Festival features 37 events and 12 Olympic sports, and attracts 150,000 sports and fitness enthusiasts from around the world. And this year was extra special as it was the 20th anniversary of the Festival's centerpiece event—the Arnold Classic—which is considered to be among the most prestigious bodybuilding competitions in the world.

Sunrider as Sponsor
One of the main reasons Sunrider started sponsoring the Arnold Sports Festival in 2006 was to provide financial support to showcase top athletes from China. This event also provides a great venue to introduce the attendees to a successful worldwide company that has been providing "Health and Wealth" to the world for over 25 years. Sunrider was delighted this year to sponsor Zhang Jie and his teammate Lu Changliang, junior weightlifting champions from the Chinese Weightlifting Association. Both of these amazing athletes wowed the crowds on center stage with their performances as shown below.

Sunrider is also dedicated to supporting various other athletic activities and events, as evidenced by Sunrider International's selection to be the sole nutritional supplement provider for the Israel Olympic team for the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

When people ask me "What is Sunrider?" I often give them the following quick 30-second response:

● 25 years of stable financial growth

● Currently doing business in 42 countries

● Self manufacturer of over 400 exclusive products

● Own and operate over 2 million square feet of manufacturing facilities in 4 countries

● Opportunities to own a business system we consider to be better than a franchise.

Here are some approximate details about our newest manufacturing plant addition currently under construction near Los Angeles, CA:

● State-of the-art pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing equipment

● Nearly 1 million-square feet of working space

● 150 million dollar estimated total investment

● Perimeter of the project is approximately 1 mile long

● Ribbon cutting ceremony during our Grand Convention in July 2008

Sunrider as Competitor
Although I've always enjoyed bodybuilding as a hobby, I became really excited about competing in the sport because of Sunrider's sponsorship presence at the event and being surrounded by thousands of athletes and fitness enthusiasts. Last year, I set a personal goal to compete in my first amateur bodybuilding show and I took third place in the lightweight division. A few months later I found out that my third place finish had qualified me to compete at the 2nd annual amateur bodybuilding competition during the Arnold Sports Festival. Sunrider was already planning to send me back in 2008 as a sponsor representative anyways, so now I could also participate "on stage" instead of just watching from a distance—this was to be the perfect mix of business and pleasure!

My exercise regimen consisted of working with my professional fitness trainer twice a week for about an hour, and then a one-hour per day workout 4 more days during the week by myself, and then resting on Sundays. My dietary supplementation for this show came only from Sunrider's exclusively formulated "foods" made with our own pharmaceutical-grade manufacturing equipment to ensure the highest quality foods. From where I started before beginning this journey to compete as a bodybuilder, I can enthusiastically say that I looked great and felt great on stage!

All in all Sunrider was honored to participate both as a sponsor and as a competitor during this very special anniversary year for the Arnold Sports Festival.

Torrance Advantage Award

2008-12-09 23:33

Sunrider International

On Thursday, March 13, 2008, Sunrider International won the inaugural 2007 Torrance Advantage Award in the "People to People" category from the City of Torrance. The awards ceremony took place at the Torrance Marriott with a wonderful buffet and the attendance of the City Mayor, Frank Scotto, and other city officials. The unveiling of the winners was a surprise to all who applied. Even though we had a feeling that Sunrider would win in one of the four categories since we fit into each one, we were still surprised and happy to know that we won the "People to People" award. Sunny Beutler and Paul McCabe accepted the award on behalf of Sunrider. Our beautiful crystal award and framed letter from the mayor will be on display at our Torrance Headquarters.

The Torrance Advantage Awards were established to recognize innovative economic development strategies of local significance. The Awards are designed to showcase best practices and highlight outstanding results. Through this recognition, the City of Torrance thanks businesses that contribute significantly to the growth and enrichment of the Torrance community.

The "People to People Award" Category honors an organization's excellence in enhancing employment opportunities in Torrance. Additionally, it honors an organization's commitment to its current employees and investments in their talented and skilled workforce, including:

o Types of jobs created

o Number of jobs created

o New & existing programs for employee motivation and career advancement

Additional info is available at www.torrnet.com/TAA.htm

This was a great event, and we were honored to receive recognition from the city since Sunrider has been in Torrance since 1986. A little recognition goes a long way. This is for all of our employees who have made such a great impact on the company and have helped us achieve great heights.

Drs. Chen Host 400 Sunrider Business Leaders at the Leadership...

2008-12-09 23:33

Sunrider International

If you polled the 400 North American Business Leaders who attended the Leadership Conference in Honolulu, Hawaii, held during February 17 – 24, all of them would give it "two thumbs up!" The setting at the luxurious Hilton Hawaiian Village Beach Resort & Spa overlooking a wide stretch of beach and the Pacific Ocean was a paradise and it just got better and better as the week went on.

We started out on Monday afternoon, loaded on nine buses, with a visit to the famous Polynesian Culture Center, where we spent eight hours enjoying a taste of South Pacific culture, visiting native villages, and viewing an IMAX presentation. We then were treated to an authentic luau and an amazing and spectacular two-hour show with a cast of over 100 that kept the audience riveted.

Tuesday's tour to the Pearl Harbor monument was relevant and moving. We watched an historical film depicting the events of December 7, 1941, and the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, and then took the ferryboat to the Arizona Memorial, which sits on top of the sunken hull of the battleship USS Arizona. This memorial honors the crewmen who lost their lives during the attack. It was an emotional tour and we were touched by it.

We had a delicious buffet lunch following Pearl Harbor at an upscale Japanese restaurant and had the entire place to ourselves! The city bus tour took us to places of interest giving a perspective of island culture, history and landscape.

Wednesday and Thursday were "free" days allowing Sunriders to select leisure activities of their choice, which for many included hiking, snorkeling, shopping, or island hopping. During this time we also had seven Opportunity and Training meetings featuring the sought-after John Teng. Approximately 250 people attended these productive, positive, and informative sessions, including guests from Hawaii.

Thursday and Saturday mornings, selected key leaders and guests were invited to a special meeting with Drs. Chen.

Friday's General Meeting, which was emceed by Jeff Smith, was open to everyone and it was inspirational and exceptionally motivational. There was energy in the room and Dr. Chen really was at his best – and most of you know how powerful his message can be! He reiterated his Business Building Advice, focusing on the 4-step approach techniques. Dr. Chen then went on to urge the IBOs to make approaches a habit and said that when they do this, sponsoring will happen naturally. To get to this point, Dr. Chen talked about what they have to do: (1) change their mindset; (2) have the courage the face the ensuing challenges; and (3) work hard to achieve their "optimal" goal. No one does it better than Dr. Chen as he mixes humor, business acumen, and logic to drive home the point. Based on the feedback I have received, he did drive home the message.

Mrs. Chen followed him with her energy and enthusiasm and presented a PowerPoint on Frequently Asked Questions. She feels these are extremely important and that all business builders should learn them and be able to answer them with confidence and clarity. She asked the questions and had the IBOs answer the questions.

The lunch that followed at the hotel was like all the meals we shared in Hawaii – EXCELLENT! We got more compliments on this conference, food-wise, than on any of our conventions or cruises. As a matter of fact, all the comments on the Leadership Conference have been extremely positive, if not glowing.

Friday evening was an exceptionally enjoyable event. The two-hour Alii Kai Catamaran Sunset Dinner Cruise was a resounding success! Sunriders were treated royally and had the entire deck reserved exclusively for them. Everyone had a great time listening to Polynesian music and dancing. The entertainers also did a fantastic job in getting all IBOs to participate in dancing with them, even after the boat docked back in port. Once again, the food was delicious and it was a fun-packed evening.

Finally, the week was drawing to a close, but the Saturday evening Banquet was a grand finale to a fabulous week. Don Caster emceed the evening and kept it going. The buffet dinner was sumptuous, and the highlight of the evening was the IBO performers! There were seven groups that were creative, imaginative, and entertaining – worthy of American Idol! A great moment was when Dr. Chen serenaded Mrs. Chen singing, "I can't help falling in love with you." Even the staff was talked into a karaoke version of "Don't Worry, Be Happy." Dr. Chen once again brought his single-minded passion to the evening and inspired IBOs to make a commitment to change, and approach using the 4-steps and make sponsoring a habit. Mrs. Chen held a raffle where over 50 excited and happy winners won innovative products such as the Antioxidant, Brightening Eye Cream, Color Compact Cases, and new Lip Colors – all of which will be launched during Grand Convention! It truly was a memorable evening.

IBOs enjoyed another incentive from our marketing plan – a free vacation in Hawaii! The average Travel Incentive Check was $2,200, which fully paid for a week-long vacation in a setting where the rich and famous play!

When they get back to their homes, the challenge to the IBOs was to have the courage to make the changes that Drs. Chen urged everyone to make. We have no doubt that they will make that commitment to change – I have heard that from many. We are also looking forward to the IBOs making a concerted effort to promote and attend the upcoming Grand Convention in Anaheim, California, with their downlines so they too can immerse themselves in the grandeur of Sunrider while enjoying the global camaraderie, inspiration, and pride this most important event provides.
Aloha, Sunriders, until Grand Convention 2008 at Anaheim!

Simply the Best Seat in the House

2008-12-09 23:33

Sunrider International

As a Sunrider employee, it's always a pleasure and a privilege to have the chance to listen to Dr. Tei-Fu and Dr. Oi-Lin Chen in person, something that normally I only get to do once a year during Grand Convention when I work onsite and attend various events. So I was excited when I was asked to attend a special meeting held at SR HQ last Thursday. The meeting involved North American Business Leaders and Drs. Chen getting together to discuss various business matters, and as Dr. Chen said, "to improve communication and get everyone on the same page."

For the meeting, I was asked by my manager, Wendy Teng, to take notes for future articles; but during the course of the meeting I found it difficult to do, as I'd become so engrossed in what the Chens were saying that I'd sometimes forget to put pen to paper.

Dr. Chen has always impressed me with his charisma and confident yet engaging personality. He's a business visionary who's able to infuse his talks with a down-to-earth practicality and a natural sense of humor, making any topic accessible and entertaining (even the stuff dealing with calculation formulas!). It doesn't matter what country or culture you come from—when Dr. Chen speaks, you want to listen. I can see how people around the world have been attracted to Sunrider with such a dynamic spokesperson and leader at the helm.

What struck a chord with me at this particular meeting was Dr. Chen's message about the importance of having the "courage to change." He gave examples how great leaders throughout history had the courage to change, to get out of their comfort zones, and make tough, sometimes unpopular decisions that paved the way for innovation and growth. Dr. Chen not only initiates change, but also embraces it when he believes it'll benefit the lives of Sunriders. Having the courage and dexterity to adapt to changing circumstances and the willingness to learn from experience, and even from other companies, are attributes of his that I think have contributed to Sunrider's continuous growth and success spanning over 25 years.

Mrs. Chen always amazes me with her boundless energy and incisive intellect. She's always ready for any question an attendee might throw at her. And her ability to orchestrate a meeting, to say nothing of Grand Conventions and her global company, is remarkable. She's the ultimate multi-tasker in my book.

At the meeting I saw how she's able to cultivate success in business builders through her organized presentation of the Sunrider marketing plan and by sharing her expert business advice; but most of all I think she helps people maximize their potential through serving as an inspirational role model. Sure, Sunrider provides lots of excellent materials and marketing tools that provide guidance and the blueprints for success, but through experiencing Mrs. Chen, you get a real-life example of how to challenge yourself and go after your goals.

Attending the meeting also gave me the chance to meet some of the Business Leaders and to see them in action (Mrs. Chen sometimes likes to put people in the hot seat, in a good-natured way). Watching the leaders made me realize that although there was an undeniable diversity of backgrounds, ages, and personalities, there was a common denominator that made them all distinctly "Sunriders"—they all exuded an almost tangible passion for the Sunrider business. Hearing them tell their incredible success stories almost made me feel like switching from working at Sunrider to working in Sunrider, as an IBO. For the time being though, I like using the SR gym and working in the great environment at SR HQ too much to change just yet.

Thanks for your time; I need to sign off now to see if I can make sense of my meeting notes.

Hawaii Regional Meeting

2008-12-09 23:33

Sunrider International

The Hawaii Regional Meeting held in Honolulu on December 27, 2007 was very special for me in so many ways. First of all, this trip was part of a prescheduled family Christmas vacation in Hawaii so I got to mix business with pleasure on this one. I have to admit that I always feel a little bit guilty taking up the invitations of our Independent Business Owners to go tour local attractions or do any sightseeing when I visit their beautiful cities during regional meetings. I guess I feel like I get to have all this fun while my wife Wendy is at home wrestling with our kids. Anyways, on this particular trip I could whole-heartedly enjoy the whole package since my family was there, too!

Secondly, my Brother-in-Law Reuben and his wife Katie also made the trip to Hawaii and they treated me to an introductory scuba diving experience for my Christmas present. I braved the merciless power of the Pacific Ocean to a depth of 41 feet and swam right next to sea turtles and eels. Sorry no photos to show since my so called "waterproof" camera immediately filled up with water once I jumped in the water.

Next, the Hawaii meeting date also marked my 4-year wedding anniversary and I am happy to report that I was fully prepared to give Wendy a big surprise during the evening meeting. I hired a guitar player to accompany me as I serenaded Wendy to the music of the Hawaiian Wedding Song. We then danced one more verse of the same song during the intermission between the opportunity meeting and the training meeting. I then handed her a beautiful anniversary ring that I brought with me from the mainland. It was a true-to-form day in the life of the Sunrider family—business and pleasure all mixed together into one big fun event!

And last but not least the actual Hawaii meeting! The evening represented a reunion of the Chen family with our beloved Sunrider friends in Hawaii. With the greatly appreciated help of our dear Sunrider friends, the Sugai family, a beautiful hotel venue was prepared to receive loyal Sunriders and guests at the big event. I was given the chance to share an opportunity meeting overview for all of the new guests. Dr. Chen, founder of Sunrider International, then shared a very powerful training message of how to effectively combine the power of the products with the earning potential of the compensation plan into one solid message that was so easy to understand and duplicate!

Although each trip to Hawaii always seems so short, I am really excited to go back again this February with all of our Sunrider leaders to enjoy the food, entertainment, and training awaiting those who qualified for the North American Leadership Conference. See you in Hawaii my friends!
