CHANGE YOUR ATTITUDE--CHANGE YOUR LIFE!...

Bad Attitude = Horrible Life

Good Attitude = Average Life

Great Attitude = OUSTANDING Life

It doesn't matter what you do... what your job... your education level... your parents... things that happened to you in the past -- the attitude we carry between our ears every day determines our success or failure in life.

Change your attitude... change your life.

It's that simple.

WHY DECEMBER IS THE HOTTEST RECRUITING MONTH OF THE YEAR...

Most network marketers fall into the
trap of slowing down their recruiting efforts during the holiday season.

They mistakenly believe that people preparing for the holidays will not
be interested in what they have to offer... or they get so caught up in the holiday
preparations themselves... that they put their business on the back-burner.

December is the time to promote like a madman! Why? Because legions of other distributors are taking the month off... and any offer you present will enjoy
increased responses, sales, and distributor sign-ups.

We all tend to reevaluate our lives in the later part of December and early January...
remember those infamous New Years resolutions?

A couple of issues that capture the attention of most folks are:

==> Their health and wellness... brought on, no doubt, by their inclination to overindulge
in unhealthy foods and sweets during the holidays, and

==> Their lack of money or income... helped along by overspending for gifts, celebrations, etc.


Both of these concerns shout "OPPORTUNITY" to a Seasilver distributor.

We have a magical opportunity this year with the addition of the F*r*e*e Try-A-Bottle program. How much easier can it get than to be able to GIVE-AWAY a full quart bottle of Seasilver?

I strongly urge you to take advantage of this uniquely productive time of year and
RE-DOUBLE YOUR EFFORTS TO BUILD YOUR ORGANIZATION NOW!

You'll reap some exciting cash rewards in your January and February commission
checks if you go to work TODAY! This weekend is a great time to dust off those
distributor inquiry lists and start making calls and sending coupons.

NEW TOLL FREE DISTRIBUTOR ORDER NUMBERS AVAILABLE NOW...

Seasilver is now providing one of the hottest marketing tools available in this industry! Now, you can have your own personal toll free order line... staffed by professional telesales representatives who will take your customers orders and politely upsell for you.... 24-hours a day, 7-days a week! Your order line(s) will be open for business while you are sound asleep in your bed! How's that for putting your business on auto-pilot? It is like having your own private order department.

The price for this service is amazingly low. Only $20 per month... or... if you pay annually, at the rate of $120 per year, your monthly rate is only $10! That's less than your commission on only one trial bottle order of Seasilver. It's a NO BRAINER!

Compare that to the typical fees in the $50 to $80 per month range from commercial toll free answering services and you'll quickly see what an inexpensive tool this really is.

The real marketing power of this tool becomes evident when you realize that you can TRACK results from your toll free marketing in the management area of your free company website.

At this price you can even afford to invest in multiple numbers (no limit on the numbers you can buy) in order to track and evaluate specific ad campaigns, promotions, etc. This is a very powerful way to determine ROI (return-on-investment) and to measure the cost effectiveness of specific media, etc. You can even measure specific elements of ads such as different headlines, etc.

This is an exciting and very powerful marketing tool that you will want to order immediately. Simply pick up your phone, call the marketing department at Seasilver [1-800-299-8256], and order the lines you need. In my view this is a must-have tool for every Seasilver distributor who is serious about growing their Seasilver business.

U.S. STUDY SHOWS VITAMINS SAVE HEALTH CARE COSTS...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Want to save health care dollars? Give vitamins to the elderly, a study published on Thursday suggests.

The study, done on behalf of Wyeth Consumer Health by health care consultant The Lewin Group, finds that vitamins could improve overall health, making elderly people less likely to need drugs or hospital care.

"The Lewin Group study found that daily use of a multivitamin by older adults is a relatively inexpensive yet potentially powerful way to improve one's health," Lewin said in the report.

As people age, and especially after age 65, the immune system generally weakens, leaving them vulnerable to infections.

"The five-year estimate of potential savings (or cost offsets) resulting from improved immune functioning and a reduction in the relative risk of coronary artery disease through providing older adults with a daily multivitamin is approximately $1.6 billion," the report concludes.

"The five-year estimated cost offset associated with avoidable hospitalization for heart attacks is approximately $2.4 billion," it adds.

The study assumed that 50 percent of adults over the age of 65 would take the vitamins at first, but that up to 85 percent would take them after five years of having Medicare or health insurance pay for them.

Over five years, the report concludes, it would cost min. $2.3 billion to provide a daily multivitamin to older adults in the United States.


The study was launched with the aim of finding an inexpensive way to save money in health care.


"Evidence from numerous sources indicates that a significant number of older adults fail to get the amounts and types of food necessary to meet essential energy and nutrient needs."


The group looked at a range of studies and reports to make its own findings. It studied the effects of taking vitamins on five diseases -- coronary artery disease, diabetes, osteoporosis, prostate cancer, and colorectal cancer.


"Additionally, we examined literature concerning the effects of multivitamins on immune functioning in older adults and the potential health care savings that might result from avoiding the costly hospitalizations, nursing home stays, and home health services associated with pneumonia, cellulitis (a skin infection), kidney and urinary tract infections, and septicemia (a blood infection)," the report read.

For instance, one 1998 study involving 80,000 nurses found a 24 percent reduction in the risk of heart attacks among women who took daily multivitamins.

CO-OP ADVERTISING IN LOCAL MARKETS...

Need to punch up your retail sales and recruiting in your local markets? Who doesn't?

Here is a system that works:

Start a "dealer listing" coop ad program with your other local downline distributors. Run approved display ads in your local newspapers, shoppers, church bulletins, chamber of commerce directories, etc. Offer to include the basic contact info of your downline (just name and telephone numbers) for each distributor who commits to a one case auto-ship order every month. As long as they are active with an autoship order... they are maintained in the dealer listing ads.

You pay for the ads... include your order information, web site address, toll free numbers, etc. Any orders coming directly from the ads goes to you. Put a section called "Order Seasilver From These Local Distributors"... in the ad and list your participating local downline members. A certain percentage of people seeing the ad will end up calling one of your downline...either because they know the individual, or want to deal locally. This helps your downline build retails sales and grow their distributor base, dramatically increases the awareness of Seasilver in your local markets, and shortens your selling cycle. It's a Win/Win all around.

If you are holding meetings in your local area, you can also put a small announcement of the meeting place and times in the ads which will help draw new distributors to your meetings.

GREAT NEW MLM TRAINING ARTICLES POSTED...

Tim Sales, one of the worlds most highly respected mlm industry pros, has contributed several major new articles to our training archive.

You'll find them at: http://www.e-comprofits.com/swsarticles.html

Tim Sales is the creator of "Brilliant Compensation" video... considered by most savvy networkers as the finest training tape in the business. Tim joins an elite cadre of the top professionals in the industry that can be found at www.MaxxMLM.com.

WHY BE ON AUTOSHIP?...

WHY... because it is an essential factor in your success and profitability with Seasilver!

If you are not currently on autoship of one case per month you are simply not serious about making money with Seasilver. Yes, I know that sounds a bit harsh. But... it's true!

In addition to the obvious benefits of being on auto-ship i.e. weekly payroll, free product, rebates, and bonuses... there is another factor which I consider even more important...COMMITMENT!

COMMITMENT = CASH FLOW

Ours is a business of duplication... what YOU do will be duplicated by your downlines. If you are not on autoship... how can you impress upon your downline the essential importance of being on autoship? And make no mistake about it... being on a one-case autoship is essential to your organizations success.

Auto-ship is an outward manifistation of your commitment to the success of your business... and the profitability and cash flow of both your downlines and uplines. Indeed, savvy distributors select the downline distributors they spend extra training time with based on that distributors commitment. No commitment=little or no support. It's the only way we can manage this business. Spending time with uncommited distributors is a fools game.

Think of auto-ship as your River-Of-Revenue. Dam up the river (by not being on autoship) and the revenue slows to a trickle. Get everyone on autoship and the river runs fast and full!

HOW THE NATIONAL "DO NOT CALL LIST" COULD BE A GOOD THING FOR YOU...

Here is an interesting article on how to turn the national "Do Not Call" list into a lead generation system:

THE POWER OF "THANK YOU"...

When is the last time you sent a "thank you" note to your customer base?

Nothing fancy required... just a simple thank you note that you can pick up at any Walmart or stationery store.

Customers are buried in bills, invoices, dunning notices, solicitations, etc. A small personal note of thanks goes a long way to establishing you as a caring person to do business with... and will result in increased customer retention... and continued business. That translates directly to PROFITS FOR YOU.

Try doing a quarterly mail out program to your customers... include something useful like a pen, keychain, small calendar... with your contact info "courtesy of" and your "thank you for your business" message. Make sure you include your business card with each mailing.

You will notice an immediate increase in your customer retention rate... and an increase in referrals!

ADAPTABILITY... THE KEY TO MARKETING SUCCESS IN TODAYS WORLD...

Being successful in todays marketing environment means being flexible enouth to adapt to changing conditions.
We are indundated with advertising and marketing messages that compete for our attention...each one of us is bombarded by 3,500 marketing messages per day?

That's 24,500 advertisements per week.... 1.27 Million Advertising messages per year... and growing!

In order to cut through the clutter you need to fall back on some tried and true methods that capture a prospects attention. The trusty old telephone gets you one-on-one with your potential new customer or distributor.

Other more direct ways of reaching your prospects are wise strategy also... try sending more direct mail letters, post cards, etc. Get the prospect involved with your materials and you will carve out a bit of mindshare that you might not gain with online techniques.

THE ONLY ONES WHO LOSE... ARE THOSE WHO QUIT...

"Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up."

-- Thomas A. Edison

GREAT PEOPLE VS EVERYONE ELSE...


The difference between great people and everyone else is that great people create their lives actively, while everyone else is created by their lives, passively waiting to see where life takes them next.

The difference between the two is the difference between living fully and just existing.

TEMPORARY EMAIL CHANGE...

I am experiencing some email issues due to forgetting to renew several domains before the deadline. I expect these to reconcile themselves by this weekend. In the meantime, please use the following email address to contact me should the need arise:

Note: I am using AT instead of the @ symbol in order to eliminate the spam harvesters from grabbing this email address.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN POOR AND BROKE...


Being broke is a temporary condition.

Being poor is a mental attitude.

There is no shame in being broke...but to accept being poor is to resign from life."

BACK IN THE SADDLE...

Well, the move went as well as any move can be expected go. Lots of confusion, disorganization, hard work, and aching muscles.

I am back in the saddle again... back online, and cranking. While I was in the throes of the move I managed to sponsor two more Seasilver distributors into our SuccessWithSeasilver Team. :-) Nice to be building again!

According to last weeks Corporate Conference Call all the past bonus checks have been paid, new literature is shipping, a new video is on the horizon warehouses are stocked, and new product is flying out the door.

We are close to full reconciliation of all issues and the future looks GREAT!

Over the next few weeks you will see a lot of new content appearing on the www.MaxxMLM.com site so make sure you check in every few days and read the new materials and tap into the new resources. We're "ramping up" quickly now as we are headed into the best time of the year for MLM activity and sponsoring. The kids are back in school, cooler weather is hitting the U.S. mainland, folks are spending more time indoors and on the internet. The end of the year holidays are just around the corner...and folks are needing more money. Corporate downsizing is still on a rampage... and people realize that "if it is to be...it is up to ME".

All in all... we have a lot to be thankful for. I for one am re-energized, re-newed, & re-invigorated, and totally enthusiastic about Seasilver!!! This is going to be a fantastic ride over the next few months.

How to get prospects to join 10 minutes before your
meeting starts... or on the telephone...by "Big Al" Schriter

One of the most requested forms from my SuperSponsoring Workshops was the form I used to get prospects pre-sold, leaning forward, and wanting desperately for the meeting to offer a way for extra income.


Many prospects who filled out the form wanted to join even before the opportunity meeting started.


I think you could even use this form on telephone calls. Simply ask the prospect the three simple questions on the
form, and wait for the prospect to say:


"I sure hope your opportunity can solve my problem."


Would you like a copy of this form to use for your business?

HURRICANE ON THE BIG ISLAND?....

I have received a number of concerned calls about the prospects of a hurricane hitting the Big Island.

First, let me thank each of you who has shown concern for my safety and well being... it is very heart warming.

As it stands now hurricane Jimena is headed straight for the Big Island with sustaining winds of 100+ miles per hour. This could change directions or speeds very quickly so it is really too early to tell what, if any, problems this might generate for those of us who live here. If it does hit, and we go offline, it could be days before we are back online.

For those of you who would like to track the storm online you may do so at: http://www.prh.noaa.gov/pr/hnl/cphc/pages/cphc.shtml

NEW FAX RULES COULD CREATE PROBLEMS FOR MARKETERS...

Network Marketers shoud be aware of new fax regulations scheduled to take effect August 25th, 2003. Under the new regulations, a business will be required to have a signed permission form on hand prior to faxing a recipient. Penalties for violating these new regulations range from $500 to $11,000 per fax.


If you market by fax, please take these new regulations into account, and revise their marketing plans accordingly.


The American Society of Association Executives is leading a grassroots campaign to stop these new regulations from taking effect. For further information, please visit the link below:

SEASILVER ALCOHOL CONTENT...

According to an answer that I got regarding the alcohol content of Seasilver (attributed to Bela Berkes), the alcohol content of Seasilver is .76 percent. That is... slightly over 3/4th of one percent.

Consumers suffering from the disease of alcoholism are cautious about any product which contains over 1 percent alcohol. This puts Seasilver about 25% UNDER the one percent concern level.

Remember, that we cannot make medical claims for Seasilver... so we can not, and should not, state that Seasilver is safe for alcoholics.

What we can say is that Seasilver contains ".76 percent alcohol". The consumer will have to make his/her own decision regarding the use of the product.

EXCITING NEW SALES AIDS FOR SEASILVER...AVAILABLE NOW...

Here are some excerpts from the F.A.Q. regarding NEW marketing materials:


"We are in the process of completing new marketing materials - Product Brochure; Success System brochure; and 44 page 4-color photo essay booklet entitled "Decade of Dedication". These materials will be available the week of August 4 - samples will be sent out to all Business Builders and we will be able to immediately fill all orders. For now, these materials are the only marketing materials approved by the Company. If you ordered sales materials from the Company on or after April 1, we will automatically replace these materials with new ones at no charge. No action is required by you- we will do it automatically."

" The New Video Tour of the Company's facilities- "Feel the Spirit"- will be available for purchase next week. The Company is also developing radio and television commercials that will be available to distributors in the next 30 days. "

NEW SEASILVER CORPORATE F.A.Q...

As promised in last Tuesday's corporate conference call, Seasilver has posted a F.A.Q. for Business Associates on the corporate website. Here is the direct url: http://www.seasilver.com/corp/faq_ba.html

I strongly recommend that every distributor read the F.A.Q. in it's entirety. There is some very positive information in it.

SPONSORING JUST ONE PERSON PER MONTH...

Here is some dramatic food for thought on the sponsoring process.... Can you sponsor one person on your first level every month for a year? Can you train your team how to duplicate that effort?

If so... you will end the year with over 4,000 in your downline.

Now... carry this out a bit further... if all 4,000 of your downline are case qualified, how much do you think you will be making at the end of the year?

How simple can it get folks?

FEEL + FELT + FOUND ...

TRAINING: One of the smoothest and most disarming methods of handling a prospects concerns (objections) is the simple use of the FEEL... FELT... FOUND... dialogue. It can be applied to almost any situation. Indeed, it is a universal technique used by some of the top salespeople and negotiators throughout the world. Here's how it goes:


The customer has just voiced a concern about business opportunity scams or pyramid schemes... or any one of a hundred other possible concerns...

"John, I know how you FEEL.

I FELT that way once myself.

But, I FOUND something very different here... I'm not saying it is for you... but it is something I have lost sleep over just thinking about the possibilities...and I would like your opinion of it...."

(Note: The FEEL and FELT phrasing is always the same as above... the FOUND dialogue is customized to the situation.)

I once overheard an old mentor of mine using this exact technique with his teenage daughter and it worked like a dream. You see... this simple technique can be used in almost all human interactions. It is especially useful when making presentations... because it is such a logical and un-emotional method of directing a conversation to go where you want it to go.

Try it... you'll be amazed at how effective it is.

NEW SEASILVER LITERATURE...

New literature is being produced for Seasilver and is expected to be available on or about Monday August 4th, 2003. The new booklet is a multi-page, four-color, piece. Each distributor will be mailed a copy of the new material.

According to the information stated on this evenings corporate call, anyone who has ordered company sales literature in the past few months will have that literature replaced with the new materials. It will be shipped automatically on the basis of sales records from the company.

The company instructs that all old sales literature must be either returned to the company... or destroyed. Do NOT use any of your old brochures, or other literature.

F.A.Q. TO BE POSTED AT CORPORATE WEB SITE...

A new F.A.Q [Frequently Asked Questions] page will be loaded to the corporate website [ www.seasilver.com ] in the next day or so. It will cover many of your questions regarding the new operational standards, processes, and policies that govern the Seasilver re-start.

SEASILVER CORPORATE CONFERENCE CALL EACH TUESDAY...

MAJOR FRONT PAGE EXPOSE OF THE FTC/FDA ATTACK ON SEASILVER...

Aloha...

Media Bypass Magazine www.mediabypass.com is publishing a major analysis and article on the recent FDA/FTC attack on Seasilver. The article is titled: "Sharks Circle Seasilver".

Seasilver will be on the FRONT COVER of the August 2003 issue. The article will deeply analyze the various agendas of the parties involved and clarify a lot of issues surrounding this situation. I spoke with the editor/publisher of Media Bypass and the article will be very sympathetic with the company and the distributor network.

I am buying several cases of the magazines [ 90 copies per single case for $100.--shipped free] for distribution to my distributors, customers and new prospects. Smaller quantities are available. I see this as a way to pro-actively counter the negative aspects of the Seasilver situation... and do so in a very credible way.

The publisher has done, and is continuing, a deep investigative reporting process about the Seasilver situation.

Orders can be placed for copies of the publication by calling 888-218-1167... or you can email the publisher at: paul@mediabypass.com The publisher is ordering an additional 10,000 copies of this publication and has negotiated a rock bottom price for sale to distributors and others interested in this issue. They accept MasterCard or Visa.

Don't forget you can coop the purchase of one or more cases with your downlines. You can order two cases for $173.00.

My strong recommendation to every Seasilver distributor is to call the toll free number TODAY and order what you will need to distribute to your organization.

NUTRITION AND KIDS PROGRAM... PERFECT COMPANION TO YOUR PRIMARY WELLNESS PROGRAM...

I am excited about the synergy between the NUTRITION AND KIDS program... Seasilver.

Here's the perfect companion to any wellness or nutritional company. Nutrition and Kids™ is a hot fund raising program based on a unique CDROM game which teaches children about good nutrition. It is getting rave reviews from school systems, local governments, etc.

Not only will you make a great income promoting the Nutrition and Kids™ program... you will also generate fabulous leads for your primary wellness programs. This is positive synergy at its best!

It costs less than $20 to get signed up as a distributor... and the promotional tie-in with wellness products is fabulous. Worked properly this could be a powerful lead generator and profit maker.

LOTS OF CHANGES AT THE MAIN SUPPORT WEBSITE...

If you have not visited the main support site you may want to click on over to WWW.MAXXMLM.COM and see all the changes that are taking place. Lots of new content and a complete revamping of our logo and identity.

In addition, you will find new articles in the Health & Wellness section and additions to the Opportunities section.

The Seasilver situation looks like it is beginning to reconcile itself... :-) ... so, hopefully, we will all be able to fire up our marketing and begin building again soon.

Your loyalty and patience during this ordeal is very much appreciated.

ARE THE SEASILVER NEWS REPORTS ACCURATE...????

by Phil Zulli...


I think it is very important that distributors and customers hear all the facts regarding the FTC action against Seasilver.

Several newspapers and TV stations across the country have picked up the story. The reportage until today has been largely negative and often inaccurate and incomplete. Remember that bad news sells newspapers.

Some of the inaccuracies include statements of company earnings vs. gross sales, and confusing Seasilver with colloidal silver products, which contain inorganic metallic silver. One newspaper reported that Seasilver PILLS were seized. The reports of “sanitation problems at the company's production facility last year” fail to mention the new 36,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art manufacturing facility built this year. And before Seasilver has had its day in court, and before the company has been found guilty of anything, some newspapers are reporting it as health fraud !

Many of the inaccuracies are due to the inflammatory FTC press release issued on Thursday. In it, FDA Commissioner Mark McClellan is quoted as saying, "This is the sort of intolerable health fraud I had in mind when I announced six months ago that the FDA will take vigorous actions against firms that prey on consumers and patients by selling worthless dietary supplements as cures for serious and chronic diseases and conditions."

It is hard to understand how an FDA official can refer to organic aloe vera, sea vegetables, Pau D’Arco, and cranberry concentrate as a “worthless dietary supplement”. Anyone interested in the truth could do a simple internet search and in just a few minutes discover the acknowledged benefits of these ingredients. Or they could just ask some of the tens of thousands of satisfied customers how they feel about Seasilver’s benefits.

Healthcare professionals who regularly recommend appropriate nutritional supplements for their patients recognize these FDA tactics. It was very common ten years ago for supplements to be subjected to these kinds of attacks. That changed when the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994, passed unanimously by the 103rd Congress on Jan. 24, 1994, found that “the importance of nutrition and the benefits of dietary supplements to health promotion and disease prevention have been documented increasingly in scientific studies; and that there is a link between the ingestion of certain nutrients or dietary supplements and the prevention of chronic diseases such as cancer, heart disease, and osteoporosis.”, and that, “although the Federal Government should take swift action against products that are unsafe or adulterated, the Federal Government should not take any actions to impose unreasonable regulatory barriers limiting or slowing the flow of safe products and accurate information to consumers”.

It is my opinion, and the opinion of untold numbers of healthcare professionals, nutritionists, healthfood store owners, and experts who have studied the issue that pharmaceutical companies and other interests wield undo influence when it comes to regulatory activity. The FTC action, and FDA comments regarding Seasilver this week seem to indicate a return to pre-DSHEA era tactics to limit the sales of beneficial nutritional supplements. It was a strong public response that was responsible for DHEA being passed in the first place. I hope to see a similar public response to the latest regulatory abuses.

I would also add that it is my belief that some of the specific statements made by Seasilver in its literature and on distributor websites were not to the letter of the law. However, I do not believe that it was an attempt to misrepresent the benefits of the product. Instead, I believe that is was simply keeping pace with the general tone of claims and representations made in today’s marketplace. Many well-known companies have become a little lax in their strict adherence to the letter of the law regarding claims. And if you look at the really outrageous claims made for some of the poor quality nutritionals and health products on the internet, on TV shopping networks, and in direct mail pieces, you have to wonder why Seasilver was singled out and attacked so strongly.

As distributors, we know that Seasilver was in the process of voluntarily revising its product book and that the distributors responsible for the infomercials were in the final stages of producing new ones. So why the strong-arm tactics by FTC? My conclusion is this – Seasilver produces great results for the people who use it and its fast-growing popularity threatens certain business interests that have the ability to affect regulatory action. That is my opinion, having seen this type of thing happen frequently over the last 20 years.

As the news stories continued, they have become more fair and balanced. Today’s article in the North County Times, which serves the San Diego California region where Seasilver has its headquarters, reflects some of the popular support for Seasilver. The article states “Seasilver has its supporters. Many callers have told reporters that they were angry at the publicity of the last week because the dietary supplement, in their view, had worked wonders in their lives.”

The article talks about the layoff at the factory due to the FTC freezing the assets of the company, and quotes a representative from a local temp agency that supplies 200 customer service reps for the Seasilver company. “Seasilver paid its bills on time but the receiver appointed to take over the company's assets put a stop to that, she said.”

The article also reports, “Almost without exception, even when they say nothing else, employees express affection and admiration for the father-and-son team (Bela and Jason Berkes who run the company).”

For the complete news article, use this link - http://www.nctimes.net/news/2003/20030620/60654.html

I am looking forward to next Thursday’s court date when Seasilver has its chance to defend itself against the charges. In the meantime, if you are a satisfied user of the product, I encourage you to write a short email about it. Don’t include any disease condition that may have improved during your use of the Seasilver product; just write that you are a satisfied Seasilver customer who enjoys using the product and that you want to make sure that you can buy it again quickly. Send the email to your congressman, to the FTC, to the FDA, and to your local newspaper. Send a copy to Seasilver! Use your rights as an American citizen to stand up for what you believe in. We are fortunate to have those rights. If you don’t express what you want, someone else may decide it for you.

Be sure to tell all of you customers and distributors about this issue. And when this is all over in a week or so, you can be proud that you showed your support. Soon, everyone will have the chance to hear about the true benefits of this remarkable nutritional supplement called Seasilver.

PHIL ZULLI

SEASILVER'S FUTURE... AND YOU...

My name is Phil Zulli and I want to offer some comments on the significant events that are happening with Seasilver this week. Once you understand the history of these kinds of actions, and the way Seasilver has responded to the challenge you'll be excited about our future.

Big success never comes without setbacks.

I have been a full-time networker of nutritional and natural health products for more than 18 years, and a national trainer since 1989. I produced and hosted the top recruiting conference calls for some of the fastest growing companies in the early 90's. I have also served as VP Sales for an MLM company, and I do consulting work for the industry. I have experienced first hand what happens both out in the field, and inside a company during the ups and downs of the network marketing process.

I am a brand new Seasilver distributor. I joined last Thursday June 12th, so I have no downline or customers to protect. And no one from Seasilver asked me to write this. My comments are unbiased, based on my years of experience.

I finally made the decision to join Seasilver after watching its growth for 3 years. I am excited to be a part of a solid well-run company, with a truly beneficial whole-food organic product that has captured the imagination of the American consumer. I have always been a strong advocate for natural health, it is my passion.

My marketing challenge in recent years has been to create an awareness of, and desire for, quality nutritional products in a marketplace where cheap, inferior products sell off the shelves in Wal-Mart and local supermarkets like hotcakes.

As I watched Seasilver explode in sales 2000% in the last two and a half years I was impressed. It's not just the product; it's the total package. Seasilver's remarkable attention to servicing its customers and distributors has set a bold new standard in our industry. The compensation plan is simple to understand, provides up-front money without ripping people off on "training" expenses, and provides a very significant residual income for anyone who consistently works the business by introducing new people to the product. And the smart investments on infrastructure, like multiple distribution centers and phone centers, ensure the long-term vision.

Seasilver is an amazing 21st century company!

I write this to speak to visitors to this forum who are trying to understand what this FTC action means to their business. I want to tell you that I am Certified by the American Nutraceutical Association to train MLM distributors and others on proper marketing methods and language under DSHEA, the Dietary Supplement Education Act of 1994.

It is my opinion that the marketplace in general has become very lax regarding claims made for nutritional and natural health products. There are many companies that are way over the top when it comes to health claims. Seasilver was not singled out because it's claims were the most grievous violation of the written laws, they are not. This action comes because of Seasilver's high visibility and success in the marketplace.

Also remember this; it is not an issue of whether the claims are true or not, it is simply an issue of whether the law permits it. There is a big difference between those two things. I believe that Seasilver's health claims are true.

There is also a difference between claims made by the company, and claims made by distributors in the field. The internet has given an international voice to anybody who can type. As distributors, we must respect the law and protect our opportunity. If you have a website that promotes Seasilver, please remove all claims and testimonials until the company approves your site. And please comply with requests to send your brochures or literature back to the company for replacement if asked. These things will help us get back in business quickly.

FTC again announced this year its intention to clean up false claims made on the internet. This is a good thing when it actually protects the innocent people who use the internet to make buying decisions. The action against Seasilver is a part of this larger campaign to send a message to all companies. Seasilver, by virtue of its phenomenal growth, was an irresistible target. When Seasilver reaches its agreements with FTC regarding labeling and marketing materials this week or next, it will be back to business, with a smooth clear road ahead of us. That is exciting!

I am glad it happened now. It is very common for big nutritional MLM's to go through this process. I personally experienced it with Herbalife, Nikken, and a few others. Amway and Nu-Skin had their share of regulatory challenges as well. And all are billion dollar companies now. Seasilver will weather this storm more easily than those examples, I predict, and we will return quickly to bringing the Seasilver Foundational Health Program and opportunity to the consumers, who need it badly.

Be proud to be a part of the Seasilver phenomenon. Be happy that this inconvenience to us happened now instead of later. Be patient in these next few days while the details are being worked out. You know what Seasilver is and what it can do, and that won't change. The wonderful contents of the bottle were never in question; just the marketing materials. Remember that some of these regulators still reflect the same thinking as the pharmaceutical companies did 20 years ago; that nutritionals don't work. Today, of course, the pharmaceutical companies are starting up nutritional divisions as fast as they can. I wonder why the big pharmaceutical company owned nutritional companies never get caught up in regulatory action? Hmmmm

Seasilver will still give the same powerful results as it always did. We will still be able to tell people about its unique benefits. The major change will simply be the specific language we use to tell the Seasilver story, and the company will tell us exactly what is permissible.

I am more excited about the coming years with Seasilver than I have been about anything since the beginning of my career. I encourage you to keep a positive perspective and do your best to make sure that your distributors and customers who are concerned about the FTC complaint have all the facts. On the FTC website it states clearly that "The complaint is not a finding or ruling that the defendant actually has violated the law. The case will be decided by the court." That court date is next Thursday and when Seasilver is given the chance to defend itself, this bump in the road will be behind us. The new labeling is already being printed.

The phenomenal growth of Seasilver is supported by the vision and actions of Bela Berkes and the excellent team he has assembled; but it is driven by us, the distributors. It is our enthusiasm for the product results, our desire to help the people around us understand the power of this foundational health program that has made this growth possible. Don't lose that enthusiasm to a regulatory action based on the FTC complaint. Remember the results you have seen with your own eyes and felt in your own bodies. And get ready to share that knowledge with everyone you can.

Most importantly, don't forget how it made you feel today when you thought it was over. Go back to work next week with a new appreciation for this wonderful opportunity that we have to really change peoples lives. I can tell you that it is rare, and precious.

Best wishes to you all as you help others to discover the wonderful benefits of Seasilver!

28-pg SEASILVER BOOKLET IS BEING REVISED AND IS ON BACK-ORDER...

According to the Seasilver Order department this morning, the 28 pg. booklet is being revised and is on back-order. The new booklets are expected to become available in early July. Brochures are still available.

SEASILVER ORDER DESK NOW OPEN 24/7...

NEW ARTICLES & SECTIONS AT SWSTEAM.COM ...

You'll find several new articles in the Marketing & Sales Articles section of the SWSTeam.com training site. Also a new section of Health & Wellness articles. Check them out.

SALES TIP: TOLL FREE NUMBERS...

People are 7-times more likely to call if the call is Toll Free.

Why... because toll free is also risk free! The risk of the expense of the call has been transferred to you.

It is an old axiom in selling that to increase sales and lead generation we need to offer our prospect every possible means of response to our offers. The telephone is a universal response device.. Everyone has access to one. Toll Free calling eliminates stumbling blocks to response such as: expense, no calling card, no long distance carrier, no change for the public phone, etc etc. etc.

SALES TIP:

According to a recent ABCNEWS report... "In two income families the second income earner needs to earn about $30,000 per year to justify working."

What a great recruiting tool that little tidbit is. Makes a pretty strong case for starting your own Seasilver business at home, doesn't it?

SHORT DELAY IN SHIPPING OF NEW "SEASILVER SOLD HERE" SIGNS...

The printer informed me a few moments ago that they have had to special order our brilliant yellow cover stock and that our signs will be available for shipment on Friday, June 6th, 2003. I will ship everything by Priority Mail. Sorry for the delay...could not be helped.

If you have not ordered your signs yet you can still do so at the SWSTeam.com site and I they will go out in our first shipment next Friday.

NEW DOMAIN NAMES...The new domain for our Success With Seasilver Team training site is: SWSTeam.com. This change is in keeping with the new Seasilver corporate policy regarding the use of the trademark Seasilver™ in any distributor web site domain names.

The old url will be re-directed to the training site and will still work.

The same is true for my retail site. It's new url is: http://www.WellnessFromTheSea.com. This replaces our old www.SeasilverWellness.com url.

I will be making additional changes to our other related urls over the next week or so and will notify you of the changes as they occur. Note: Even though a new url has been redirected properly... it still takes up to three days to fully migrate to all ISP's around the world. SWSTeam.com is now loading properly from most of the pockets throughout the country... but there may still be localized situations where it does not load for another day or so. If this is true where you are, just go to the old www.successwithseasilver.com url and that will take you to the training site.

NEW HEALTH & WELLNESS ARTICLE SECTION...

You'll find our new Health & Wellness Articles section at: http://www.e-comprofits.com/swsheal.html

There are a half dozen great articles that you will want to review. I will be adding to this section over the next few days so stop by often and check out the new material. These articles make great sales materials... just print out the articles and forward to your offline distributors and customers.

UNLIMITED LEADS FOR ONLY $9.95 PER MONTH...

GOLEADS http://www.goleads.com may just be the best kept secret in direct mail leads. For only $9.95 per month [or $99.00 per year] you can download unlimited leads from their online database of over 12,000,000 U.S. businesses. You can select by industry classification (SIC Code), Geographic area, City, Zip Code, etc.

For example: You could download all the chiropractors in California. Or osteopaths in New York... or "healthcare practioners" in Utah... you get the idea. Put on your thinking cap and you will think of dozens of uses for these lists. All this for only a low monthly subscription charge of $9.95 per month with a modest $29.95 set-up fee.

What can you do with these leads... how about a post card mailing to all chiropractors in your selected zip codes. Or build a telemarketing list of all the health practitioners in your city... or use the lists to identify and invite selected business owners to a Seasilver Business Briefing that you are holding.

Note that these lists do not come with email addresses but they come with lots of other helpful information such as number of employees, etc. These are business lists... not consumer lists. Here is a way to save a fortune on mailing lists... with unlimited downloads. You can import the lists into standard contact manager software such as ACT, or GoldMine... or you can create a excel file. Download the lists, print them out on self-adhesive labels, attach the labels to your mailing piece...drop at the post office. What could be easier... or cheaper? This truly is one of the "hot finds" of the direct mail business.

If you have been thinking of doing a direct mail campaign to targeted business... but were reluctant to pay the huge fees charged by some list companies... then GOLEADS is perfect for you. Instead of paying high fees for a one-time rental of contacts...download all you need for only $9.95 per month... and reuse them as many times as you like.

REVISED "SOLD HERE" SIGNS...

The new retail point-of-purchase signs described in the blog entry below have been revised and improved. Instead of the one-sided sign with the "Sold Here" message in English only... we are now printing a two-sided, dual-purpose sign which has the English version on one side... and a Spanish language version on the reverse side.

We have also upgraded the paper stock to a heavier weight (80# cover stock) which will make for a sturdier re-usable sign. These signs are for interior use. They will not hold up under exterior use. If you need them for exterior use we could explore the possibility of lamination... or you can take them to a local copy shop and have them laminated yourself. For simple interior display purposes, however, they do not need lamination.

We should be shipping the revised dual language sign, to all who have already ordered, about mid-week. Cost for the signs remain the same. Order Here: http://www.e-comprofits.com/swssoldhere.html

NEW 11"x17" 'SOLD HERE' SIGNS AVAILABLE....

Many of you have requested a simple "Sold Here" sign for use in setting up your retail store accounts (health clinics, gyms & fitness centers, health food stores, etc. ).

We have created a new 11" x 17" sign which has a large picture of the Seasilver bottle on the left side of the sign...and the phrase "SOLD HERE" in very bold letters on the right hand side of the sign. This sign is perfect for putting on the inside of the stores windows... or on the wall near the product. Stacking several cases of Seasilver up on an end-panel with several signs posted nearby will invite impulse buying...and guide customers to the product.

The sign is printed on 60# brilliant yellow stock in bright red ink. It is designed specifically to get the attention of buyers, and alert them to the fact that the store has Seasilver available for sale.

These signs are modestly priced at only $20. for a minimum order of 15 signs...that's only $1.33 each. We ship these Freight Free and you can order through PayPal at:

http://www.e-comprofits.com/swssoldhere.html

You will find volume purchase discounts as well.

Retail accounts are great volume movers of our product but you have to provide the "sell through" tools they need to make their customers aware of the product.

With the massive amounts of radio advertising being done for Seasilver, there are lots of potential buyers looking for a place to purchase the product. Many of these folks are NOT online... so they are actively looking for a vendor to purchase from.

Sponsoring & Distributor Support Tip: Consider supplying every new distributor you sponsor with at least five (5) [enough to set up one new retail store] of these
attention-getting signs. You will see a rapid growth in the number of retail stores being set-up... which will result in a lot more cases of product moving through your distributor network. That means more profits for everyone.

If you market at flea markets, consumer shows, etc. you will find these brightly colored signs will attract a lot of attention... and promote $ALE$!

If you are holding business briefings / meetings... put a display of product at the front of the room... with several signs attached.

Here is the url to order the signs again:

Good luck an GOOD SELLING....

TOP RESOURCE FOR ONLINE DEMOGRAPHICS...

SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA CONSUMER SHOW FOR THE OVER 50 CATEGORY...

The next show is November 7th & 8th at the San Diego Convention Center. Southern California is a fabulous market for Seasilver and a booth there might be a powerful marketing opportunity. Consider doing a coop for a booth with several of your upline and downline.

MARKETING FACTOID...

Every day 165,000 people surf the web... FOR THE FIRST TIME!

FREE PPC [Pay-Per-Click] SEARCH ENGINE TRAFFIC...

If you go to PayPerClickSearchEngines.com and look in the "other search engines" category you will find hundreds of (about 500) PPC search engines... all clamoring for your advertising dollar.

Dozens of them will allow you to set up an account FREE... and give you a free money deposit for signing up. There are several which will give an automatic $50 to $100 deposit to use for bidding on search terms and phrases. At $0.01 cent per click that would result in a huge amount of Free Traffic coming to your web sites. Your only investment is the time it takes to load your search terms and phrases. So... if you are cash poor... and have more time than money to invest...this could be your way to boot strap your business.

Use the earlier blogger entry on Free Tools For Evaluating PPC's to determine which of the PPC's offering freebies are worth your time and effort.

You will find other enticements as well: deposit bonuses, matching deposit bonuses, etc. These "second tier" PPC's will not give you a fraction of the traffic that the top ten will... but, remember that this is a pure numbers game. The more PPC's that you have working for you at low cost-per-click... the more cost efficient your lead generation system becomes. Individually these PPC's may not create much traffic... but cumulatively they can be very important lead sources.

Also, consider that you will be diversifying your lead sources... which is always a prudent move. You don't really care where the lead comes from...you just want them to come consistently...in sufficient quantity & quality to build your business quickly.

Try this action plan... set up one or two of these PPC's per day for the next week... at the end of the week you will have from 7 to 14 PPC's workinig for you...and you did not have to spend a penny of your cash to set them up! You can evaluate them for FREE... and decide which are worth investing your money in later.

FREE TOOLS FOR EVALUATING PAY-PER-CLICK ENGINES...

If you are attempting to evaluate the potential traffic from any PPC [Pay-Per-Click search engine] (or assess the importance of any website), there are two important desktop tools that might be helpful to you.

The first is the Google Tool Bar. Using the Google Page Rank system you will get a relative feel for the importance of a given website. Note that this measurement is not precise. In fact, it is really nothing more than a brilliant marketing ploy by Google, but it does give you some feel for whether or not a given PPC is worth your time submitting to. Google uses a complicated algorithm to determine page rank (PR) but the main consideration is the number of incoming links to the site in question. I strongly recommend that you download the Google Tool Bar to your desktop and refer to it.

The second, and perhaps more important, tool is the Alexa Tool Bar. This tool will give a numerical ranking of any web site based on the actual traffic to that site. Any PPC which falls below the 200,000 range is probably not worth your time submitting to. They just do not have enough real traffic to do you any good.

Using the combination of these two free tools will allow you to better judge which PPC's you should spend your valuable time submitting search terms and phrases to. Recognize that these are just rough tools ... your judgement should always be the deciding factor. Some PPC's, because of the highly specialized nature of the target audience, will not do well in either the Google Page Rank or the Alexa traffic counts. They still might return good results and be worth your efforts.

SEASILVER CORPORATE POLICIES ON PDF...
