April 2009 Newsletter Now Is the Time to Grow inside this issue w “It worked for me” w Reliv hits the road w reliv U. re-Designed No doubt about it, people are ready for Relìv. The recession has shown them the limitations of the corporate lifestyle and they’re eager to find something that puts them in control of their lives. Fortunately, Relìv has exactly what they need. But they can’t join Relìv if they’ve never heard about us… and that’s where you come in. The direct sales industry is exploding and an unprecedented opportunity for growth is all around you. It’s the ideal time to stretch yourself, get outside of your comfort zone and expand your business. Don’t wait for people to come to you — you need to reach out to them. For Distributors taking action, sponsoring is surging. This is your chance to be a part of something big. Don’t let it pass you by — now is the time to grow. Here’s how: Keep your eyes open. Every interaction you have, every errand you run, every phone call you make is a new chance to share Relìv. Be prepared when an opportunity presents itself. Listen. People have a lot to get off of their chests these days. When you meet someone, ask questions and let them do the talking. You’ll find they’ll discover their own reason they need Relìv if you give them the chance. Go public. Make your Relìv business as visible as possible. Drink your shakes wherever you are, hold presentations in public and get that Relìv logo out there for all to see. Get the word out. Pass out business cards, join social networking sites, run ads in community publications, make signs, and “put two in play every day” with Success from Home. Get involved. Expand your network by joining your local Chamber of Commerce, participating in a group hobby or sport, or getting involved in your church or other community organizations. Learn from the best. The path to Relìv success has already been blazed many times over. Tap into the experience of your upline, of Ambassadors on Monday night training calls and of top Distributors through the workshops at Relìv U. (www.relivuniversity.com). Become a student of the business. Pay closer attention at every opportunity meeting and training. Read every Relìv publication and e-mail. Master the Relìv website. Become an expert on Relìv nutrition. You never know when a particular story or a certain piece of information is exactly what someone’s been waiting to hear. Present the Big Picture. Encourage prospects to join Relìv at whatever level they’re comfortable, but also be sure to show the full income potential available only to Master Affiliates. If they still want to sign up at a lower level, no problem — your job then becomes mapping out a plan and working with them to get to MA. Share. One of the best parts about Relìv is the generosity of our Distributors. By sharing ideas, we grow together and increase Relìv awareness exponentially. Check out page 3 of this newsletter and visit the “Distributor Ideas” section on Relìv U. to find some shared strategies for reaching out to people. So get out and get busy. You’ll be amazed at how many people are looking for a better way. Make it be Relìv and make it be YOU they hear it from. Relìv Friends Sponsoring + Leadership = Success Distributors are excited, sponsoring is up and Relìv is bringing new hope to countless lives every day. People are ready to listen to Relìv’s message of improved health and financial freedom — now more than ever. This newsletter is full of proven strategies for reaching out to people. Given our current social climate, we are committed to sharing such strategies and we encourage you to do the same. But in the midst of this sponsoring surge, we must all remember that being a successful Distributor requires more than bringing new people into Relìv — it requires leadership. One month ago at March MATS, you created a set of 90-day goals. Re-commit yourself right now to achieving those goals. For those who weren’t there, make your own list of goals. Then get to work and lead by example: w Set the tone for your organization by qualifying early for June MATS. w Help your established MAs qualify along with you. w Show all those new Distributors in your organization the powerful and limitless income potential that becoming an MA represents. Then help them work their way there as soon as possible. M e ss ag e F ro m Executive Vice President, Worldwide Sales Ryan Montgomery June MAT schools are the last ones before International Conference in August. Imagine the momentum you could bring to St. Louis if you packed those June trainings full of new, excited business builders… and how your business would then explode after conference! It can’t happen unless you take action — and lead — starting right now. Get your organization together and make your success a group effort. People are ready to start creating better lives for themselves, but they need someone to show them how to make it happen. Make it be you, make it be now.

Since I’ve taken my business online, I’m adding Distributors and customers like never before!” Director Heather Rogers Coming soon: As part of this year’s Relìv 2.0 initiative, Relìv will be making personal websites available to all Distributors in 2009. Get ready to go online! It Worked for Me…. Last month’s Master Affiliate feature on strategies to tap into the cold market proved so popular that we’ve decided to feature even more Distributor ideas in this issue — further demonstrating that there really is no limit to the ways you can share Relìv. So spread the word, shout it from the rooftops and let people hear some good news for a change! The world is calling for Relìv — now more than ever. “We make our Relìv lifestyle as public as possible. We’re regulars at the local coffee shop, where we conduct presentations and share Relìv with the world. We bring product with us and shake it up wherever we go. We wear Relìv shirts, use Relìv coffee cups, have a Relìv license plate and carry around the Relìv issue of Success from Home. If you get Relìv out in public, people are inevitably going to ask about it… and there’s your opportunity! We just had our best three-month period ever. While the rest of the world slows down, it’s springtime for Relìv!” Ambassadors Kevin & Melanie Hinds “Inexpensive and free ways to promote your business are everywhere. I found a company online that prints free business cards and car magnets. I’ve made yard signs and posted them around our area. And I found a cheap source of vinyl letters for messages in my car windows. All of these have produced solid leads and new Distributors. Whatever you do, do it solid for at least 90 days. Every strategy needs a chance to work.” Senior Director Misty Jensen “Working with Relìv’s Compliance Department, I set up my own website a few months ago. I include the address on my business cards and other materials and take advantage of free advertising on the Internet, which optimizes my site on web searches. I also have a Facebook account — a free, How About YOU? “My approach is simple: Walk up to people and talk to them. When you have the products and the company that we have behind us, it’s easy to approach people with confidence. I just start asking questions to learn more about the person, and inform them that I know of products and/or an opportunity they might be interested in. Then I get their phone number and invite them to a meeting. On a recent trip to the store, I got the numbers of all five people in line with me — plus the cashier!” Key Director Libby Stone “We put a magnetic sign with our phone number on our car in January (see photo below), and it’s been generating an average of a couple phone calls a day ever since. It took a little practice to learn how to talk to people when they called. The key is to really listen to people’s needs and make the conversation about them. Once we figured that out, we added five new Distributors through that sign in a month!” Directors Richard & Mirna Bowley “More than ever, we’ve been asking for referrals to generate leads. Not everyone is ready for Relìv, but these days everyone knows someone who is looking for better health or extra income. We view every ‘no’ as a chance to find more ‘yes’s.’ In fact, we’ve been going back to people who’ve already said ‘no’ to see if their situation has changed or if they know people we might be able to help. Then we just share with conviction and excitement the many ways Relìv changes lives.” Presidential Double Platinum Ambassador Aurora Paredes Have any great ideas you want to share?

Next Stop: Portland, Oregon Business is booming in the Pacific Northwest, and Relìv is responding with a special “Relìv On the Road” visit to Portland on May 2, featuring Executive Vice President of Worldwide Sales Ryan Montgomery as special guest. In a recent visit to Portland, Presidential Three-Time Platinum Ambassador Mike Williams spoke to close to 950 people in just eight days. “We really came together as a group and worked hard to make Mike’s visit an opportunity for big growth,” Quila says. “And did it ever work! In my 17 years with Relìv, I’ve never seen this kind of momentum.” “Relìv on the Road is designed to showcase how exciting and enjoyable it can be when momentum is built in an area,” explains Senior Vice President of North American Sales Steve Hastings. “We take our cameras into your backyard, sponsor a meeting that can attract a lot of guests, share the big picture of Relìv and capture the excitement on video. And the folks in Portland deserve something special. They’re growing by leaps and bounds up there, and we want to support their efforts and keep that momentum going.” Once the Relìv on the Road visit was announced, the area created their own promotion around the event tied to sponsoring and bringing new people to weekly meetings. Those who qualify will earn a spot aboard a cruise of the area with Ryan Montgomery and other special guests. The Relìv on the Road visit is actually the latest in a series of big events for Distributors in Portland. “We view every Tuesday night meeting and every Saturday training as the next must-attend event on the Relìv calendar,” explains Presidential Silver Ambassador Quila Buhler. “If you take that approach, you generate excitement and the kind of growth that leads to more and bigger events.” Where will Relìv on the Road stop next? Why not your town? If you build it, we will come. “And we’re far from finished,” notes Quila. “We will be working daily to bring as many people as possible to the meeting that weekend. With the great need for Relìv right now — especially the opportunity for financial freedom that we offer — this business is ready to explode!” Check out the new video from a recent Relìv on the Road visit to California.
