Direct Selling Association

"4Life employees were among hundreds of key industry leaders who participated in this year’s Direct Selling Association (DSA) Be Connected Conference in Henderson, Nevada. The annual event is designed as a best practices exchange to better equip corporate employees to serve independent distributors.

The focus of this year’s curriculum included social media, field development, and innovative marketing solutions. 4Life Web Services Director Nelson Altamirano was among the conference speakers. The focus of his presentation was on microsites, mobile technology, and ways that corporations can leverage technology to support leaders in the field.

Vice President of Communications Calvin Jolley:

Participation in these types of events distinguishes 4Life as a leader in the industry. Nelson’s presentation was important because it highlighted many ways in which we exceed our competitors in terms of the kind of online tools and resources we offer the field: mobile-ready websites, social media platforms, in-depth splash sites, and extensive back office reporting are just a few of the online opportunities that we invest in for our distributors.

4Life is good standing member in more than a dozen Direct Selling Associations (DSA) around the world, including the United States, Australia, New Zealand, India, South Korea, Philippines, Colombia, Taiwan, Ecuador, Mexico, Thailand, Chile, Spain, and Indonesia.

As a member of the top 100 global companies in the direct selling industry (Direct Selling News Global 100) and a long-time member of the DSA, 4Life pledges to follow the DSA’s ethical business practices as set forth in the Code of Ethics. The DSA's mission strives to “protect, serve, and promote the effectiveness of member companies and the independent business people they represent.”

Travel with 4Life

From the 4Life News Center:

"Over the last two months, 4Life distributors around the world have been commemorating success and achievement through the benefits of incentive trips with 4Life. Distributors who embrace the 4Life opportunity can take part in these fantastic lifestyle and travel excursions complete with valuable training from top distributors and executives.

Trips include the Platinum Pinnacle which took place in August 2011, a Baltic cruise with stops in Sweden, Estonia, Russia, Finland, and Denmark. Over 130 people went on the Gold Getaway trip just last week with an all-inclusive stay at the Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas.

Several Great Escape+ trips are in process also. The U.S. Great Escape trip took place in September 2011 with a Caribbean cruise. Over 250 qualifying distributors from approximately 15 countries made stops in Key West, Florida, Grand Cayman Island, and Ocho Rios, Jamaica.

Gold International Diamond Esdras Cabrera Alberto:

4Life’s amazing incentive trips embody what this company is all about… freedom! 4Life is more than a business, it’s an opportunity to really be you.

4Life and DSA

From the 4Life Newsletter:

"Earlier this week, 4Life President Steve Tew attended the World Federation of Direct Selling Associations (WFDSA) Regional Conference in Istanbul, Turkey. The conference theme, “East Meets West,” brought together experts from government, consumer groups, academia, and the global direct selling industry. While in Instanbul, Tew also attended the WFDSA CEO Council meeting.

The WFDSA is a non-governmental organization that represents the direct selling industry as a federation of national Direct Selling Associations. Membership consists of 58 national Direct Selling Associations and one regional federation, the Federation of European Direct Selling Associations.

4Life is good-standing member in over a dozen Direct Selling Associations (DSA) around the world, including the United States, Australia, New Zealand, India, South Korea, Philippines, Colombia, Taiwan, Ecuador, Mexico, Thailand, Chile, and Spain.

As a company in the top 100 global companies in the direct selling industry (Direct Selling News Global 100) and a long-time member of the DSA, 4Life pledges to follow the DSA’s ethical business practices as set forth in the Code of Ethics. The DSA's mission strives to

protect, serve, and promote the effectiveness of member companies and the independent business people they represent.

President Steve Tew:

Our participation on the WFDSA CEO council gives us a voice to support 4Life’s worldwide independent distributors in matters important to direct-sellers everywhere. Needless to say, our place at the table is made possible by our distributor leadership in the field."

4Life Sales and Recruiting - Record Breaking

"In August 2011, a record-breaking number of new distributors became part of the 4Life opportunity in the United States and around the world.

4Life continues to set all-time sales and recruiting records as the company expands internationally. This growth is set against the backdrop of another dismal U.S. jobs report, a bleak employment forecast, and a struggling world economy.

President Steve Tew:

Our field's record-breaking recruiting activity indicates the value of residual income that so many independent distributors already enjoy. People want to work, but existing employers aren't hiring and governments are still trying to determine how to create jobs and stimulate economic growth. The 4Life opportunity provides the means for distributors to take control of their financial future.

In the midst of ongoing economic stagnation,

stated Mark Petersen, Vice President of Field Development,

it's important for our distributors to know that the 4Life opportunity has never been stronger.

For the month of August, the company posted a 22% increase in worldwide sales and issued a list of ten top-performing markets."

Top-Performing Markets by Percentage of Sales

USA: 22% • Korea: 24% • Mexico: 26% • Peru: 27%
Thailand: 28% • Colombia: 32% • Europe: 38% • Taiwan: 81%
New Zealand: 99% • Ecuador: 116%


Founder and CEO David Lisonbee:

On behalf of Bianca and the entire 4Life global corporate team, I thank and commend our business builders in the field. In the face of such economic adversity, this kind of growth represents the kind of perseverance indicative of true character.

Watch Steve Tew!! If you are considering a phenomenal company, please view the 4Life Opportunity

said Kalinin.

My hat is off to Jorge and his team for their corporate leadership. More importantly, I acknowledge the hard work of our distributors throughout Ecuador — 116% growth is unprecedented. I remain committed, along with our corporate team, to doing everything in our power to support the field as they continue to grow.

Germany and Russia

4Life News Center:

"Immediately following the 2011 Platinum Pinnacle event on a cruise in the Baltic Sea with Platinum International Diamonds from around the world, 4Life Founders David and Bianca Lisonbee and President Steve Tew and his wife Sherma traveled to Hamburg, Germany, to visit with more than 800 4Life distributors at the Grand Elysee Hotel.

The event included a €4,000 Foundation 4Life® donation, collected from distributor contributions, to the Valiant Children’s Initiative to help homeless children.

This is my first visit to this wonderful city,

said 4Life Co-founder Bianca Lisonbee.

I am so grateful for the work and heart of distributors in Germany.

Earlier in the week, 4Life executives traveled to St. Petersburg, Russia, where they met with more than 500 4Life distributors from six countries at the Corinthia Hotel.

The event was also attended by a host of top-brass distributors, including Platinum International Diamonds Dr. Herminio Nevárez and Yadira Olivo; Juan Rosado and Damaris Zapata; Dave and Gabriela Daughtrey; and newest Platinum International Diamonds Ángel Molina and Ivelisse López.

Fortify and Costa Rica

From the 4Life News Center:

"4Life distributors teamed up with corporate executives to feed more than 250 children in San Jose, Costa Rica and to donate 168,000 meals of 4Life Fortify. In addition to food, each child received a school kit filled with supplies for the upcoming school year.

The donation took place at a feeding center that distributes more than 5,000 meals every month to impoverished children. The center is operated by Red Viva, a charity organization that supports more than 15 feeding centers throughout Costa Rica.

4Life Fortify is a high-quality meal of rice, lentils, and beans, along with a nutritional complex of vitamins, minerals, and 4Life Transfer Factor®. Since September 2010, 4Life distributors have teamed up with corporate representatives to donate meals to hungry children around the world.

Top-ranking distributors in attendance included International Diamonds Gustavo Adolfo Moreira & Flor De Liz Hidalgo and International Diamond Carlos Herrera Delgado.

4Life distributors and employees are providing opportunities that these families never knew existed,

said Foundation 4Life Director Tracie Kay.

Projects like this are truly improving people’s lives both now, and for generations to come.

Corporate attendees included Chief Financial Officer Mark Ostler and his wife Debbie, Vice President of Accounting Deann Carter, Foundation 4Life Director Tracie Kay, and Human Resources Director Kelli Vallejos. Kelley Tenney, elementary school educator and wife of Senior Vice President of Marketing Trent Tenney, was also onsite to donate her time along with Finance Managers from several 4Life Latin American countries.

Senior Vice President of Marketing Trent Tenney:

The composition of our group of field and corporate volunteers in Costa Rica is a keen reflection of 4Life’s broader culture: we’re in business with family and friends, and the business we’re in offers us opportunities to serve.

4Life has offices on five continents to service a global network of independent distributors through science, success, and service."

4Life Growth in Australia & New Zealand

From the 4Life News Center:

Midway through the decade anniversary of 4Life's first international region, sales continue to rise in Australia, New Zealand, and 4Life’s emerging market of Papua New Guinea.

In July 2011, President Steve Tew appeared via video broadcast to commend 4Life worldwide distributors for taking control of their financial lives.

Global sales are up more than 25%,

he stated from the 4Life global video bay.

Since that time, 4Life distributors throughout Australia have continued the charge. In July, combined sales for both markets were over 50% higher than July of 2010. This percentage indicates that 4Life distributors are sharing 4Life products and the opportunity more than ever before.

Evelyn Thom, General Manager, Australia and New Zealand:

It is wonderful to see such remarkable growth in Australia, New Zealand, and now in Papua New Guinea! Our distributors have worked so hard to nurture this emerging market, and their efforts are reaping great rewards. Although we represent 4Life’s first international region of business, our distributors continue to break records by sharing the latest science, technology, and 4Life’s proven opportunity with others. I am very proud to support the field in everything they do.

The percentages of growth in Australia and New Zealand reveal another important statistic: despite the market’s maturity, rank advancements are up 160% throughout the region, which indicates a strong future for distributors during the next decade.

Alan Michaelis, Vice President, International:

The combination of Evelyn’s corporate leadership and steadfast entrepreneurs in the field has been key to our most recent surge in growth. Partnerships are imperative in our business, and 4Life partnerships between corporate and the field have never been better.

Direct Selling News Article

From the 4Life News Center:

"4Life President Steve Tew recently authored a "Top Desk" feature article in the Direct Selling News, the world-leading trade journal for the direct selling industry. Tew wrote about the value of Direct Selling Association (DSA) membership for 4Life distributors.

The DSA’s history is one of collaboration, information exchange, united lobbying efforts, and public awareness campaigns designed to dispel negative myths about network marketing.

In his article, Ethics, Opportunity, Leadership: The ‘Platinum’ value of DSA membership for 4Life distributors, Tew describes how as a DSA-member company, 4Life entrepreneurs are beneficiaries of meaningful legislation, media opportunities, and a rich legacy of the DSA Code of Ethics.

We communicate our DSA membership to express our commitment to the principles set forth by the association and to empower you, our distributors, with knowledge about what to expect from 4Life,

writes Tew.

In addition to membership in the United States of America, 4Life Founder and CEO David Lisonbee holds one of only a handful of seats on the CEO Council of the World Federation of Direct Selling Associations (WFDSA). The company’s international DSA memberships include: Thailand, Chile, Australia, New Zealand, India, South Korea, Philippines, Colombia, Taiwan, Ecuador, Mexico, and Spain."

National Governors Association (NGA)

From the 4Life News Center:

"This past weekend, 4Life was a proud sponsor of the National Governors Association (NGA) Annual Meeting held in downtown Salt Lake City at the Grand America Hotel.

The NGA was founded in 1908 to serve as the collective voice for governors throughout the United States. NGA members include governors of the 50 states, three territories and two commonwealths. The NGA represents its members on Capitol Hill, addresses important federal issues, and creates innovative solutions for public policy through the NGA Center for Best Practices.

This year’s opening session addressed the necessity of economic growth around the country. NGA Chair and Washington Governor Chris Gregoire:

Strengthening our economies means making sure that more of our residents have the skills they need to compete for the jobs of today and tomorrow.

The three-day event included a visit to the Utah Museum of Natural History, dinner at the University of Utah Red Butte Arboretum, and a social gathering at Utah Olympic Park, site of the 2002 Winter Olympic Games.

We’re really appreciative of our 4Life distributors,

said President Steve Tew.

It’s their hard work that enabled us to sponsor the National Governors Association Annual Meeting. The event provided an important platform for collaboration among political leaders from around the United States.

David Lisonbee, Founder and CEO:

Corporate social responsibility is a term used to describe a company’s ability and willingness to meaningfully address community concerns. 4Life distributors have a right to be proud of the work that we do. From the field-driven work of Foundation 4Life to special engagements like our support of the NGA, we’re committed to ongoing participation in communities where we conduct business.

Ecomony woes not affecting 4Life

"President Steve Tew has announced that in the midst of a struggling worldwide economy, 4Life global sales are at an all-time record high.

Following a poor U.S. jobs report and an unemployment rate that ticked from 9.0% to 9.1% during the month of May, there is worry that economic recovery may not hold in the United States. Similar troubles abound around the world.

Despite these hardships, it appears that 4Life distributors are taking control of their financial future,

said Tew.

With global sales up more than 25% in May, commissions paid to distributors are at an all-time high.

4Life’s current Top-Performing Markets by Percentage of Sales for May 2011 represent 13 markets on three continents.

4Life Indonesia, Welcome

4Life News:

"On June 18, 4Life opened its 21st market with an international office in Jakarta,Indonesia. The event included an opening ceremony that attracted more than 800 people.

With more than 17,000 islands, Indonesia is the world's largest archipelago. The country has a population of approximately 240 million people. Jeff Kalinin, 4Life Senior Vice President, International:

This market has enormous potential and represents a fantastic opportunity for the people of Indonesia and 4Life distributors throughout Southeast Asia and around the world.

With a $25,000 donation to last year's tsunami, earthquake and volcano disaster in Indonesia, worldwide distributors have already shown the people of Indonesia the strength in unity that is exhibited through a commitment to the values of 4Life's science, success, and service.

Now, it's time for us to share our message of opportunity with the people of this fine country,

said General Manager, Indonesia Deddy Aryadi.

Our support staff in Jakarta is here to serve the distributors of 4Life’s newest international market with the same commitment to excellence that our executive team insists on from our worldwide employees.

Platinum Sponsorship, Direct Selling Association

"4Life Research, a long-time member of the Direct Selling Association (DSA), was a Platinum Sponsor of the 2011 DSA Annual Convention at Fontainebleau Resort in Miami Beach, Florida.

Chief Financial Officer Mark Ostler; Senior Vice President, Marketing Trent Tenney; Vice President, Communications Calvin Jolley; and Vice President, Distributor Services Jaime Pierce were onsite with others to represent 4Life during the three-day event.

This year marked the retirement of DSA President and industry veteran Neil Offen.

As a tribute to Offen's legacy and the ongoing role of the DSA, 4Life donated $10,000 to the new Neil H. Offen Direct Selling Image Enhancement Fund.

The DSA's mission is:

To protect, serve and promote the effectiveness of member companies and the independent business people they represent.

Member companies like 4Life pledge commitment to the DSA’s ethical business practices as set forth in the DSA Code of Ethics.

Trent Tenney, Senior Vice President, Marketing:

4Life is a world leader in the direct-selling marketplace because 4Life distributors are world leaders in the field. We thank our worldwide distributors for opportunities like this to participate in important industry events.

As part of the general session, 4Life employees Curtis Ostler and Jeff Millet appeared on video to support the Direct Selling Education Foundation (DSEF). Numerous 4Life employees also donated their time to collaborate with DSEF and competitors in a painting and gardening service project at the YWCA in downtown Miami.

Event highlights included a celebration of record sales growth and rank advancements with presentations by Platinum International Diamonds Dr. Herminio Nevárez and Yadira Olivo, Juan Rosado and Damaris Zapata, and the pinning of 4Life’s newest Platinum International Diamonds Ángel Molina and Ivelisse López of Puerto Rico.

During the event, 4Life Founders David and Bianca Lisonbee shared their vision of business, service, and family. President Steve Tew staged a State of the Company address with Chief Operations Officer Danny Lee, Senior Vice President, International Jeff Kalinin, General Manager of Spain and Portugal Rafael Fernández, and Director of Field Development, Spanish Markets Deborah Dixon.

Senior VP, International Jeff Kalinin:

This show was filled with passion, power, and energy. The commitment of our 4Life INT distributors is a great testament to the value we offer as a company and the benefits of being part of a strong team.

Dr. Herminio Nevárez and Yadira Olivo staged the 2011 International Networkers Team event in Bogotá because Colombia distributors accounted for the largest mobilization of people from all countries at last year’s INT event, which took place in Panama."

President Steve Tew:

Platinum International Diamond Dr. Hermino Nevárez and his entire team share a clear and strong vision of the future. They are committed to turning dreams into reality and have proven time and again that they know how.

Gold International Diamonds Dr. Jase Khyeam and Son Jae Min both shared their strategies for success during the event. 4Life corporate representatives included: President Steve Tew and his wife, Sherma; Vice President International Alan Michaelis; and General Manager of Korea Tony Lee.

I greatly appreciate the presence of Steve Tew, Sherma, and Alan Michaelis,

said Lee. “Their participation added a lot of energy and meaning for our distributors in attendance.”

Throughout the recession, 4Life distributors throughout South Korea have dedicated themselves to growing their 4Life businesses by sharing the messages of science, success and service with others. As a result, the May/June issue of Summit magazine recognizes South Korea among the top ten 4Life international markets in terms Q1 sales."

Vice President International, Alan Michaelis:

It was wonderful to have Steve Tew visit the South Korean market just days after our record sales month in April. Our talented distributor leaders and their teams are enjoying unparalleled success, and it was great to have 4Life’s president recognize their efforts and share with them his vision for the future.

4Life Rocks On

"4Life Research is proud to announce that Byron and Analía López of California, USA have achieved the rank of Gold International Diamond, the second highest rank of achievement in the company."

Byron first joined 4Life in 2006.

I was introduced to the opportunity by International Diamond Belinda Pérez,

recalls Byron. Byron decided to get involved with 4Life to support his health. Once he understood more about network marketing, Byron became determined to build his own 4Life business.

Several key distributors have offered valuable support to Byron, including Platinum International Diamonds Dr. Herminio Nevárez, Juan Rosado, and Ángel Molina; Gold International Diamonds Lily and José Ángel Sánchez, and Ileana and Hugo Johnson, have also been instrumental in the Byron’s success.

Vice President of Field Development Mark Petersen:

There may be a rumor that the ‘American dream’ is gone. Byron and Analía López are proof that it is not. They have leveraged the 4Life opportunity to change the lives of their family and so many others on their way to becoming Gold International Diamonds. Daily, they are making a positive difference for people by showing others that the ‘dream’ is alive!

Byron is powered by motivation to achieve his dreams.

I'm motivated to become a Platinum International Diamond. I'm motivated by my children. I'm motivated by the beautiful, visionary, and committed people in my group,

he says.

4Life President Steve Tew:

On behalf of the Lisonbees and everyone at 4Life corporate, we congratulate Byron and Analía López on this remarkable achievement. Their motivation and drive are inspirations to us all.

4Life Research continues it's growth, continues with cutting edge products.  There were two new people recently appointed to general manager of the Philippines and Ecuador.

Since launching in September 2010, more than 1.4 million meals have been donated in countries around the world, including Honduras, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Venezuela, Pakistan, and the Philippines.

Fifteen distributors were in attendance, including International Diamonds Frank and Emeline Uy Tesy and International Diamond Evelyn Tactac. Corporate attendees included 4Life President Steve Tew and his wife Sherma, Assistant General Manager Eileen Tan, and Vice President of Communications Calvin Jolley.

I'm overwhelmed with the distributor response to this program, as well as the overwhelming support from our distributors in the Philippines for this event,

said Foundation for Life Director Tracie Kay.

President Steve Tew:

This represents our inaugural 4Life Fortify donation in Asia. It’s an honor to represent our worldwide distributors whose work continues to make our mission of service such a success.

In a logistically challenging country like India, reaching out to distributors becomes very critical. The opening of the Chennai office is a positive step towards developing this further,

said Manoj.

This office will not only give distributors a place to pick up 4Life products, but is also fully equipped with a training hall that will assist in the continued business development in Tamil Nadu.

Director International Southeast Asia and India Preston Richards:

This new office will create a wonderful space for distributors to present the opportunity to prospects. I am confident that we will continue to see positive results from our distributors in India.

4Life Growth in this Economy

From the 4Life Research news Center:

"President Steve Tew has announced that sales are at an all time record high, with worldwide sales up more than 20%."

Steve Tew:

In our industry, there's no clearer evidence of growth than rank advancement. Throughout the recession, 4Life distributors maintained momentum by refusing to allow difficult circumstances to limit their success. As a result, sales are up 20% worldwide. The month of March exceeded any previous month by millions of dollars.

"In the month of March, 4Life enjoyed a number of top-tier rank advancements, including Ángel Molina and Ivelisse López of Puerto Rico, the company's eighth Platinum International Diamonds, as well as Oyunmaa Banzragch, the company's first Gold International Diamond from Mongolia and Jhonny Aguilar Pinto and Betzaida Cova de Aguilar, the company's first Gold International Diamonds from Venezuela."

"In addition, Dionny Recio became the second Gold International Diamond in the Dominican Republic and Juan Vargas and Heidy Rosado became the company's nineteenth current Gold International Diamonds in the United States."

"During the last thirteen years, 4Life has established itself as a world leader in direct sales. In 2003, Inc. 500 recognized 4Life as the fifteenth fastest growing privately-held company in the United States. This year, Direct Selling News will name 4Life among the top 100 global direct selling companies in the world."

David Lisonbee, Founder and CEO:

When Bianca and I launched 4Life in 1998, we were committed to Taking Transfer Factor to the World®. Since that time, 4Life distributors have done just that. Today, our global corporate team is committed to empowering distributors as they continue to share our products, opportunity, and philanthropic mission.

As a distributor, this makes me so proud to part of a company with cutting edge products that care for their distributors and others!

"4Life Research announced today that more than 100 distributors from Russia, Mongolia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Lithuania went to the Melia Bali Villas and Spa Resort on the Indonesian island of Bali for the 4Life Eurasia Great Escape trip on March 9–14. The 4Life Eurasia market consistently ranks among the five top-performing markets and top-performing regions by percentage of sales.

Several top distributors were present, including Platinum International Diamonds Sadik Din and Hasnimah, and Gold International Diamonds Aleksey Egorov and Lyubov Alimova. 4Life executives in attendance included Chief Scientific Officer Calvin McCausland, PhD, Senior Vice President of Marketing Trent Tenney, Vice President, International Steve Apple, and President of Eurasia Emma Oganova.

In addition to relaxing, networking, and sightseeing, the trip featured training from 4Life executives and distributors about new trends in the network marketing industry, the Life Rewards Plan, 4Life Transfer Factor products, and Eurasia market growth. Also, Aleksey Egorov was recognized on-stage as a new Gold International Diamond.

It was wonderful to be present on the Eurasia Great Escape+ trip,

commented Tenney.

I enjoyed witnessing the commitment and passion of the distributors who attended. They built their businesses and were rewarded with a luxury trip, complete with training from top leaders and executives. It was a tremendous experience to be with them. I have no doubt that the leaders in Eurasia will continue to reap much success with 4Life.

The Great Escape+ trip rewards distributor dedication,

commented Oganova.

The number of attendees on this trip shows that 4Life distributors are building successful businesses throughout the region. 4Life is proud to support our distributors and the Great Escape+ trip further developed that bond.

4Life has offices on five continents to serve a global network of independent distributors through science, success, and service."

One plus million Forify Meals Donated

"4Life Research™ announced today that since 4Life Fortify® was launched at 4Life's recent convention in September 2010, over 1.2 million meals (50,000) bags of the product have been donated.

Each bowl of 4Life Fortify provides a warm and nourishing meal of rice, lentils, and beans, a nutritional complex of vitamins and minerals, and 4Life Transfer Factor® support for a healthy body."

I'm overwhelmed with the distributor response to this program and look forward to many similar donations in the future,

commented Foundation 4Life Director Tracie Kay.

Several distributors have individually purchased thousands of dollars worth of product. There are so many children around the world who can greatly benefit from 4Life Fortify. With each donation we receive from our generous distributors and employees, we will seek out those children who are in desperate need of our help.

More than a million meals since September alone!

said 4Life Co-founder Bianca Lisonbee.

It’s been so wonderful to watch, once again, the power of our distributor force in action. There is so much good that we can accomplish when we work together as one.

"Feed The Children, an international nonprofit relief organization, helps distribute 4Life Fortify meal packs to malnourished children around the world. 4Life has also partnered with Feed The Children to provide immediate on-the-ground relief in the countries where 4Life does business.

Open House at 4Life Spain

"4Life Spain held an open house and ribbon-cutting ceremony at the 4Life office for hundreds of distributors. The event represented a unique opportunity for visitors to tour 4Life's call center for Spain, Portugal, and Germany, see the passcode-protected VIP room for 4Life International Diamonds and above, and mingle with 4Life General Manager of Spain and Portugal Rafael Fernández and his team.

Gold International Diamonds Carlos Rocha and Nidia Pinzón López were onsite. 4Life Vice President of Communications Calvin Jolley was also in attendance.

4Life opened Spain in November 2007. Since then, dedicated 4Life business builders have driven the market to more than double in size. Rafael Fernández:

It's an honor to host many of the distributors who are making such a positive difference in their lives and the lives of those around them with 4Life's message of science, success, and service.

Fernández leveraged the event to raise money for Foundation 4Life®, which currently has a dollar-for-dollar matching program to raise money for distributors and employees of 4Life Japan.

Following the devastating earthquake and tsunami,

said Jolley,

The first thing we set out to do was account for every one of our distributors in the field. As of the time this piece went to press, nine 4Life distributors in affected areas were still missing.

4Life's matching program gives distributors an opportunity to make a difference in rebuilding lives of fellow networkers in Japan. During Spain’s ribbon cutting event, distributors donated more than 1,000 Euro."

4Life Helping Others

"March 17, 2011, 4Life employees and distributors volunteered at the Feed The Children Americans Feeding Americans Caravan. To date, the event has helped more than 200,000 families across the United States who have been affected by the nation's economic downturn."

"Distributor leaders at the event included International Diamonds Kevin Moore and Carlos Ramírez. Founders David and Bianca Lisonbee and 4Life President Steve Tew were also on-site at the event to support our employee volunteers and join in the service efforts."

"Volunteers distributed food and personal care products to residents in need of humanitarian aid; this food will help provide meals to over 800 families. 4Life also added bags of 4Life Fortify® meal packs for each family receiving aid. Volunteer efforts included setting up tents, unloading semi-trailers full of food boxes, carrying boxes to recipients’ cars and homes, and going door-to-door to remind local residents about the drive."

Being able to support local relief projects is a humbling experience for our employees and distributors. 4Life’s worldwide growth has blessed our lives in so many ways, and it’s great to share our business success with those who have fallen on hard times,

commented Foundation 4Life Director Tracie Kay.

I am grateful for the true desire of our volunteers to lighten the burdens of those in our own neighborhood.

Director of Human Resources Kelli Vallejos:

I’m very proud to be part of 4Life as they give their employees the opportunity to give back. It is a wonderful reminder of how truly blessed we are.

Analytical Services Manager

"February, 2011 4Life is pleased to announce the recent appointment of 4Life employee Shauna Roman to the Expert Review Panel for Validation of Botanical Identification Methods. At 4Life, Roman serves as the Analytical Services Manager."

"Formed by AOAC International, the Scientific Association Dedicated to Analytical Excellence®, the Expert Review Panel establishes guidelines for validation of botanical identification methods in the herbal supplements industry. This panel includes representatives from the USDA, FDA, academic professionals, and the industry at large."

AOAC has a contract with the National Institute of Health (NIH) to support FDA initiatives on dietary supplements, including good manufacturing practices (gMPs).

"One of the great challenges of gMPs," says Roman, "is that compliance requires at least one identity test for every incoming lot of raw material, but in the dietary supplements community, botanical identification isn't well-defined. This new appointment will give 4Life a seat at the table in establishing these guidelines."

"4Life Chief Scientific Officer Calvin McCausland, PhD: "The analytical data that this panel is tasked with identifying helps us understand the structure-function benefits of our products. Shauna Roman’s appointment is a very positive step forward for 4Life and for our industry."

This is a positive step forward and example of why 4Life Research is a leader in the health and dietary industry.

4Life South Korea

"4Life announced today, Febuary 4, 2011 the recent opening of a new business center in Daegu, South Korea. Daegu is a strong commercial business area in one of Korea’s largest cities."

"This is the third center 4Life has opened in Korea to support the activities of the international office in Seoul and to provide a meeting space for local distributors. The second center opened in Pusan, Korea in April 2010."

"More than 150 distributors were in attendance at the recent ribbon cutting ceremony for the Daegu center including Gold International Diamonds Dr. Jase Khyeam and Son Jae Min, both of whom addressed the participants at the event. Also in attendance were Vice President, International Alan Michaelis, 4Life Korea General Manager Tony Lee, and other members of the 4Life Korea management team."

"Our great Daegu area distributors are one of the reasons for Korea's recent sales increases and strong market growth," shared Michaelis. "4Life is pleased to be able to invest in their continued success with this beautiful center."

"Lee commented, "With the opening of this center, I am confident the Daegu area distributors will grow their 4Life businesses at an even faster rate. On behalf of all of the Korean distributors, I would like to thank David and Bianca Lisonbee and Steve Tew for their support and confidence in 4Life Korea's success. This center opening is a great example of Together, Building People."

The 2011 edition of the PDR provides in-depth product information about 4Life Transfer Factor and 4Life Transfer Factor Plus Tri-Factor Formulas. In addition, the publication offers a technical description of the product line and synopses on several clinical studies."

Brent Vaughan, 4Life Director of Health Information Systems: "This professional listing gives 4Life Transfer Factor an additional boost in the scientific community, and helps strengthen every distributor's position as an exclusive leader in the distribution of Transfer Factor products."

4Life's commitment to patents includes an emphasis on research and development to generate formulas, compositions, and processes that are patentable. While 4Life's legal team concentrates on patent acquisition, the International Product Registration department focuses on registrations around the world to support distributor growth now and in the future. In 2010, 4Life completed 101 product registrations in 30 countries.

4Life Founder and CEO David Lisonbee: "Patent protection is just one way that we work to empower 4Life distributors with exclusivity and credibility in the marketplace. 4Life patents provide our distributors with security for decades to come."
