Stream the January, 28 2012 Sat AM Live Call with RN Maureen Durkin.  Announcements. - Quoting Vance's Weekly Email: "Whether you're a parent, grandparent, Aunt, Uncle or simply know a kid, Maureen Durkin will share with us how to raise a child in a toxic world. It starts with us making small changes & then we impact others. This will be a Q&A call, so be ready to interact!

Here are a few things Maureen will address:

1) Health occurs by choice, not chance.

2) Negative energy & stress can make you sick.

3) Get back to the basics of water, sleep, light, whole foods and supplementation.

4) Chemical in water bottles is found in most of the breast cancer patients."

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: "That water is gross!"

"Why is it that 10 year olds think they know everything? Well, in this case she couldn't be more accurate. Let me explain.

In our home, Mac Kenna & Emily take a BPA free bottle to school everyday filled with water from our Waterfall unit. They consume all 30 ounces of water before school is finished so they'll usually fill it back up from the drinking fountain. When they pack their lunches for the next day, they'll dump out the 'gross' water and fill it back up from the Waterfall.

Emily's strong reaction came two days ago when I was about to top off her bottle. She immediately made sure that I didn't because she wanted ALL good water and none from the school.

I know what you're probably thinking... Why don't we simply give them both a Nikken Sport bottle? They tell me that they can't drink it fast enough to keep up with their schedule and besides, their bottles are prettier! (Maybe I'll let them decorate them?)

The 'gross' water available to us can be corrected easily. We owe it to ourselves to take advantage of Nikken's solutions and encourage others to do the same. It could lead to putting money back into our pocket every month. See this investment strategy that Susan Carver put together for a simple breakdown."

Stream the January, 21 2012 Sat AM Live Call with Bernadette McBurnie.  Announcements.. - Quoting Vance's Weekly Email: "Bernadette McBurnie spent 13 years in the IT field, including 4 years as the IT Director for the French affiliate of the world's largest cosmetics company and 3 years in the banking sector in Hong Kong. Nikken entered the picture 10 years ago after she took a leave of absence to raise their 3 children.

When her daughter was able to give up all medications for a pro-longed breathing disorder, Bernadette realized that the Nikken solutions created an endless possibility to impact people's lives around the world who wanted a better life for themselves."

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: "Are You Ready?"

"What an exciting time to be alive. And what an exciting time to be in Network Marketing...

Elections looming. Economies tanking. Governments teetering on insolvency. Unemployment at record levels.

Ain't it great!

It's unfortunate, but for many people, they need circumstances like these to open their minds up. They've been so brainwashed into getting a degree and getting a job, they simply can't help themselves. They're trapped in the Matrix and don't even know it.

It takes economic and political upheaval like this to shock them out of their mindless habitual thinking stupor. Once the wooziness wears off, they realize two things:

1) Their company doesn't have their best long-term interest at heart.
2) Their government is a Ponzi scheme managed by idealistic idiots who will never be able to provide for their retirement security.

And the day they realize that, is the day their whole world opens up. Provided you are waiting there, offering the solution.

Are you ready?

Stream the January, 14 2012 Sat AM Live Call with Phil and Gloria Offerle - Why Water, Salt and Jade.  Announcements.. - Quoting Vance's Weekly Email: "Phil & Gloria Offerle have been offering Nikken solutions" since 2004. "Lately, they've found their niche in sharing three things: Water, Barley and Salt. It may seem like an odd combination, but wait till you hear the science behind it!

This couple have built a solid business keeping things really simple and extremely duplicatable. I know that you will thoroughly enjoy hearing their story." Vance shared some some basic information about magnetism, Why Good Health Begins With Magnetism, click to download Thank You Vance!

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: "This is so frustrating!"

"We all experience it. At any given time we want to do a simple task and yet something is different than it was when we did this same task the last time. Do we let out a grumble in complaint or do we take a breath to re-group? Frustration is inevitable, but it doesn't have to derail us for an extended period of time.

The elephant in the room amongst wellness consultants right now is our new website and the systems that support this site. It improves daily and it is absolutely wonderful what we're able to do with it. Don't get me wrong, I'm just as frustrated as everyone else with learning a new system, but the driving force behind this great company is not a website, it's the spirit of Humans Being More and what we can do with it.

Dave Johnson emailed me yesterday. I thought this quote was absolutely classic:

"If you spend five minutes complaining, you have just wasted five minutes. If you continue complaining, it won't be long before they haul you out to a financial desert and there let you choke on the dust of your own regret." Jim Rohn

Use the feedback key or send your comments to: feedback@nikken.com. Then go back to sharing your story! I've placed three different orders for people in the last 48 hours who don't know anything about a new website. All they know is that they want what we have."

Stream the January, 7 2012 Sat AM Live Call with Linda Morris.  Announcements.. - From Vance's Weekly Email: "Imagine living life with migraines 24/7 for 22 years! For Linda Morris, this wasn't just a condition that she lived with, it was the prison sentence of her life with no sign of early release. Even with 17 different doctors advising every type of drug, diet, etc., she didn't find relief until Nikken entered her life.

It wasn't just the physical change that attracted Linda to Nikken, but as a former flight attendant, she discovered that the friendly skies weren't all that friendly when your heart wants to be home. The wellness home from Nikken not only changed her life physically, but financially as well."

"PS Susan Carver shared some basic investment strategy ideas with us a few weeks ago. Check out the attached document (Investment Strategy - Savings vs Water Bottles) if you don't have an extra $100,000 laying around to invest. I tweaked it a little to include the Waterfall." Way to go Vance. Thanks for sharing!

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: "Winds of change..."

"Last weekend a friend of mine clocked a wind gust at 101 mph with sustained wind speed of 78 mph! This type of wind here in the Columbia River Gorge is not exactly normal, but us 'ol timers are used to it.

Any extreme change is going to bring challenges. Just as a the trees in our community were challenged by the wind, the Wellness Consultants in North America are discovering some fun challenges with the new MyNikken. Although I absolutely love what I see, I feel like I'm learning how to ride a bike all over again. My pant leg got caught in the spoke till I remember to tuck it in my sock. I forgot to put my foot down as I came to a stop and fell over, well almost. The positive elements ALWAYS outweigh the frustration of having to re-learn something!

What I hope most of us have done is heeded Jonathan Hallstrom & Dave Johnson's advice… Don't spend a lot of time on the website as a website cannot build a business, only we can! We build others by sharing with them how much our lives have changed for the better. Spend a few minutes poking around on it, but please do yourself a favor and continue to share your story.

After all, some of us have experienced winds of change so positively that our stories are almost unbelievable."

Stream the December, 31 2012 Sat AM Live Call - Realistic Goal Time.  Announcements.. - Quoting Vance's Weekly Email: "My favorite Saturday morning every year is when the listeners become active on the call. We do this by picking just one of the 5 Pillars that we feel needs the most work to make us a better person in this upcoming year. The Japanese did this following World War 2 and they now dominate most of the main industries around the globe.

We need to improve in each area, but so everyone gets a turn, the key is to pick just one: Mind, Body, Family, Finances or Society. State the attainable goal as if you're already doing it or it's already been accomplished! And when you do it with a listening audience, it will empower you to conquer it with more authority than you ever thought possible."

"PS - Susan Carver shared some basic investment strategy ideas with us a few weeks ago. Check out the attached document (Investment Strategy - Savings vs Water Bottles) if you don't have an extra $100,000 laying around to invest. I tweaked it a little to include the Waterfall."

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: "Resolutionist vs. Realist"

"Millions of people around the World are thinking about what they will do in 2012 to make it a better year than 2011. They're referred to as 'resolutionists'. The tragedy is that the majority of them will be answering the same thing when asked what is their resolution… 'To get in shape or exercise!'

As we all know, the gyms, health clubs and yoga studies will be packed in January and by March they'll be completely empty again. Why do we make these same statements every year and then fall short? My guess… We're not being real and setting attainable goals.

So how do we make the ideal, real?"

Stream the December, 10 2011 Sat AM Live Call with CPA now Housewife Ruth Low.  Announcements. - From Vance's Weekly Email: "Ruth Loh spent nine months simply enjoying the benefits of Nikken's wellness solutions before making the decision to share them with others. She was an 'at home mom' then and still is today. When she made the decision to 'do the business' of Nikken, she generated over 30,000 in volume that month. The total of her first five months was over 150,000!

Ruth will admit that it's not easy building a business in one city and then starting all over again in another, but she did it. What really will fascinate you about her story is how this CPA by trade has used a few of those skills to duplicate both Auto-ship and a keen understanding of our marketing plan."

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit." - Aristotle

"The number of people alive 70 years ago today is getting smaller. For those that were in their teens and 20's, they'll never forget how the attack on Pearl Harbor changed the course of history.

I spent a few minutes this morning reading about several men who were laid to rest today with their fellow servicemen and women in or near the ships in Hawaii. As one who has been there, I can only imagine the sense of pride their family must feel.

We lay our lives down every day when we choose to walk in excellence. It may not be a physical sacrifice at all, but it is one that upsets the trends of mediocrity. The act of walking in excellence takes hard work. And yet it is so worth it!

Can I encourage you to walk in excellence? It's not always the easy way to go, but people have been doing it for generations and we get to enjoy the fruits of their labor. If you don't believe me, ask someone who's 75 or older."

Stream the December, 3 2011 Sat AM Live Call about the PiMag Waterfall.  Announcements. - Vance's Weekly Email said: "It's finally here! No, not Christmas. We still have 25 days left before we start looking (for) Santa and his reindeer. What has arrived though is the opportunity to really have some fun with the PiMag Waterfall. Many across North America have already been enjoying the benefits of this great system and been sharing it with others.

What I'd like to do is open up the line to hear the good, great and amazing experiences that we've had in the few weeks that we've been using this 2nd generation PiMag solution. I've talked to several people who have given me tips and I want to pass these on to everyone."

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: Mac Kenna enters "The teenage years..."

"Two weeks ago Stacey and I became parents of a teenager. Every parent gets to experience this at some point, I just didn't think it would happen so soon. I know, I know, they all grow up too fast.

It's ironic because this is the last year for us as teenage Wellness Consultants. In two days, we will finish our 19th year with Nikken and start the 20th. Even with two decades under my belt, I still get just as thrilled giving a roll-out or doing an energy test as I did the first time. Every person is shocked at the results and then has to attempt to comprehend what just took place.

This weekend Nikken celebrates 15 years in Sweden. Literally thousands of people in that small country of nine million have been impacted because a former school teacher's life was altered by the Humans Being More training in London back in 1996. Nikken wasn't ready to open in Sweden yet, but Tommy Dahlgren was pretty persuasive.

We all can be a little more persuasive with some effort on our part. Tommy and most teenagers know this. Tomorrow the PiMag Waterfall and the Dynaflux PowerChip are two of the newest items available for individual purchase. With a little tenacity, we could persuade many more people to enjoy what we've accepted as the wellness norm."

Stream the November 26, 2011 Sat AM Live Call with RN Maureen Durkin.  Announcements. - Quoting Vance's Weekly Email: "Maureen Durkin wasn't always a mom on a mission teaching 'Wellness Begins at Home'. She used to have fun working as many graveyard shifts as possible in the ER promoting the traditional methods that were modeled to her by her father. That is until she completely burned out her adrenals and fried her immune system.

Being that more families will be together this weekend than any other time of the year, I thought that it was only appropriate to have Maureen share her passionate journey of wellness. She not only lives the life that she teaches, she is living proof that Nikken has the solutions that families are looking for."

Vance's Thought for the Week: "Are we thankful or what?"

"Exactly a year ago today Stacey and I were standing in the US Embassy in Addis Abba, Ethiopia putting the finishing touches on our adoption. Thanksgiving Day 2010, would literally be the longest thanksgiving of our lives as we made the journey home from Africa with this incredible young lady.

This is the most celebrated holiday for us here in America. It's the one day where it's literally mandated that we take time to be thankful for what we have in our lives. If we started making a list, honestly, we'd fill page after page after page.

Near the top of my list would be the incredible family that we have through Nikken. Who I am today has been shaped during the last 19 years by some of the most wonderful people on the planet. How could we go wrong hanging out with people who truly want to be Humans Being More?

From our family to yours, have a Happy Thanksgiving. And if you haven't ever seen her before, you can understand why were thankful for the African Queen in our home."

Stream the November 19, 2011 Sat AM Live Call with Susan Carver.  Announcements. - Vance's Weekly Email Said: "When I first met Susan Carver several years ago she was in the process of getting her life in balance. Today, I think she'd be the first to tell you that that feat may not ever be accomplished, but she's still working on it. What is different today about Susan is that she knows exactly where she's going and what it's taking her to get there. And she's way more balanced than she's ever been!

Being in the top five producers in Nikken North America doesn't happen by accident. Susan will share with us what she's been doing lately to make this happen. BTW, you may not need your coffee tomorrow morning because Susan is sure to get you fired up."

Vance's Weekly 45 Second Tip: "Tired of talking about water? Seven billion people aren't!"

"Ask these questions next time you're with a friend:

*How many people do you know that drink water?

*Of those people, how many would be interested in a more economical and healthier source?

*Fantastic...Lets test that theory.

Do this or watch it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LsIkrQSxjzg&feature=youtu.be"

*Do you want you and your loved ones to keep drinking the water you're drinking now, or do you want to drink our water?

*Fantastic...do you want it retail or at a discount?

Terry Latham shared these questions with us last Saturday. A friend took a picture of them while on a Pathfinders Web-ex. She sent it to me as a text so I now have them in my phone. I've attached it so it can be in your computer. Wherever you are, use this as a simple way to open the door for Nikken.

A water test kit will cost you about $5 at any pet store, Walmart, etc. in the fish area. Most people have a bottle of water in their home or you can pick one up anywhere. The simplicity of these few questions and the power of pouring acidic water into our the Nikken bottle literally blows people's minds. To bridge the discussion to the rest of Nikken's incredible wellness solutions, say this: 'If you thought this water demo was impressive, Nikken has 200 products right behind this bottle that will blow your doors off!' – Terry Latham

Have fun impacting people's lives!"

Stream the November 12, 2011 Sat AM Live Call with Distributor of the Year 2008 Terry Latham.  Announcements. - Pearls from Vance's Weekly Email: "Would it be worth it to hear from someone who's sponsored 8 people in less than 3 weeks using the new Waterfall as the lead in wellness solution? I think so! Terry Latham will be sharing with us how he's done this and why the timing is so critical.

The best part about listening to Terry is that he'll share his take on why Humans Being More is the one thing that sets us apart from any other Network Marketing opportunity available today. Use this one minute (Nikken Life Unleashed) video and invite a friend to join us: http://video.nikken.com/watch/?v=success-story-latham"

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: "Out with the old, In with the new!"

"In our family, the word 'frugal' takes on new meaning every day. School papers that are blank on one side get recycled and become Nikken flyers for upcoming events(for Wellness Consultants only, not guests). Our monthly Auto-ship box gets filled with burnable paper and becomes the next days fire starter. The list is endless.

So when it came time to purchase yet another new water system I had to do some number crunching. We have been using the original PiMag counter unit that was introduced in 2000 and we replace the filters every January for $135. Then we also purchase a new ring for the Optimizer for $48. So in a few months time we'd spend $183 to ensure that we were getting the best water possible.

Here's the bottom line... At the introductory convention price, we only had to spend $56 more that what we were going to spend on filters to get the newest water technology available in the PiMag Waterfall. When it is available for individual purchase in less than a month, it is a difference of $116. Is it worth the difference in price? You better believe it is! For the sake of convenience, space, eye appeal, etc., the Waterfall is the way to go. And if I can introduce one family every 90 days to this incredible water device, it will more than pay for the cost of the filter replacement.

Our girls love not having to fill up the Optimizer pitcher anymore and we love the fact that we're all getting high alkaline water with no plumbing or electrical hook-ups. As great as it is, would we want to keep using something that's 11 years old? People these days are replacing cell phones more frequently than most people change the oil in their cars. So it really does come down to welcoming the new as we say goodbye to the old."

No Call This Week. - Quoting Vance's Weekly Email: "From the performing ballet on the dance floor to dancing through the air on a flying trapeze, Julie Tara knows exactly what it means to do 'something' to make a difference in the lives of others. As Nikken's Wellness Consultant of the Year for 2011, she is living proof that every person can make an impact.

You won't need to sip on any coffee this Saturday morning as you listen to Julie share her story. In a state of shock and awe after receiving her award at the convention, she literally fired up the audience to a level that I felt the ceiling was going to be blown off. "

Vance's Weekly 45 Second Tip: "Pushing it to the limit!"

"'Kids don't attempt this at home' is one of those phrases that literally dares every viewer to consider doing that very thing. Although I don't recommend trying this yourself, I did find an experiment last week absolutely amazing.

I was rudely awaken at 12:38 in the morning to the sound of my firefighter pager buzzing on the night stand. The information on the screen informed me of the nature of the call and which trucks would be responding from our station. It was a vehicle over a cliff and it appeared to be very serious.

Here is the very short version of the rest of this story... With the two hours of sleep I gained before the pager went off and the almost two hour nap I had much later in the day, I pushed the limit on what Nikken wellness solutions can do for a person. Not once did I yawn all day and yet what I did do was continue my usual intake of water. The only thing that I could credit for the extra energy was the fact that I'd set up our Waterfall the night before.

I'm convinced that high-alkaline water was the major factor in keeping me going all day when typically I'd be struggling. If you haven't seen the attached document from Dennis Williams, I encourage you to print it and use it repeatedly. After all, it could very well be the thing that allows you & your family to do your own experiment with the latest advancement in water technology from Nikken. "

Vance's Weekly 45 Second Tip: "No one person can do everything, but everyone can do something"

"This quote has been going around and around in my head since I heard it at the Nikken convention 12 days ago. Rachel Sarnoff, the CEO of Healthy Child/Healthy World, shared from her heart some alarming statistics that fueled us to do more about spreading the 5 Pillars of Health.

*Girls are getting their periods as young as 7 years old.
*Breast cancer is appearing in teenagers.
*One of 90 kids has autism.
*One of 71 boys has autism.
*Babies are born with over 100 chemicals in their bodies.
*Apples test positive of containing 48 pesticides.
*25 random kids tested positive for pesticides.
*After four days of organic food, 24 of the 25 kids tested 100% clean.

My intention of sharing these facts is not to scare or depress you, but merely make us aware of the job ahead of us. We have a responsibility to keep sharing what we know with people we come in contact with every day. Nikken is the Humans Being More company that can make a difference as we keep sharing. "

Stream the October 22, 2011 Sat AM Live Call with Jack and Sheri Clarke about Humans Being More.  Dennis Estes Power Chip Story. - Quoting Vance's Weekly Email: "Jack & Sheri Clarke know oh to well what it's like to be humans being more. Their journey has spanned two decades and they're not throwing in the towel anytime soon. As a matter of fact, I don't think you'll ever see them call it quits.

I couldn't think of any other couple to share about the convention last weekend than Jack & Sheri. They are truly the 'Ken & Barbie' of Nikken. They live the good life that most only dream of."

Vance's Weekly 30 Second Tip: "Humans Being More..."

"For the first time in a long time I find myself at a loss for words. How does one describe an experience like a Nikken National Convention?

The best thing that comes to mind is the response I gleaned from a first time attendee. "I've never been to an event where so much heart was displayed on the stage. This company is about real people impacting lives!"

The philosophy of Humans Being More is so much greater than just a nice slogan. It's a mission which empowers all of us to take things to a whole new level in every area of the 5 Pillars of Health. I have yet to meet a perfect person, so until then, we can all keep working on ourselves and then share with others what Nikken has done for us. Click on the link above.

Of course we can't get this device till the launch events starting on November 5th. Start talking it up & check the events section to find a launch site near you. Many more are being scheduled as well so please check the site to see what new locations have been added."

Stream the October 8, 2011 Sat AM Live Call with Nutritional Microscopist Kim Dunn.
Stream Announcements. - Quoting Vance's Email: "Kim Dunn will tell you that one of the greatest ways to maximize vital wellness is to get people started on a few of Nikken's nutritional products. 'As a nutritional microscopist, I educate my clients on the importance of taking their supplements faithfully to ensure good results in their bloodwork.

Kim has worked with thousands of clients who are experiencing improvements in their immune system just by starting on Immunity. Check out page 11 of Living Well(Fall issue) to read more.

As we head into the cooler months, the information that Kim presents will be vital in maintaining healthy bodies when everyone else is running to the pharmacy to get their flu shots."

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: "Simple yet Sensational..."

"How do you share Nikken with someone?' If I've heard this question before, it's probably because I've asked it myself at least a hundred times. It's not so much the message that's shared as it is the method with which we use to share that's important.

After a few minutes of casual conversation, Jerry White has been known to say this, "Let me show you something that will blow your mind and works every time." And then he proceeds to do one of a variety of different energy tests so people can experience the Nikken solutions.

Lately I've been doing something that I learned from Josh Nelson who learned it from the Wellness Consultants in Ecuador. The attached video file illustrates it best. The 21 seconds that you see is one of our victims last night standing on the Magsteps. Without them this massage therapist could barely even stand up when I put a little pressure into her hands. Once she was standing on the Magsteps...

Well, the audible response says it all. After she sat back down, I simply asked the question if she was open to experiencing vital wellness all day long. Simple and yet very Sensational!"

Stream Announcements. - Vance's Email said: "Gary Reid experienced a wake-up call in August of 1980 when he was officially diagnosed with MS. This condition can be interpreted as a death sentence by some, but definitely not for Gary. 31 years later, he is the epitome of what optimism should be.

Through the use of the Nikken solutions and other great devices, Gary is thrilled to share his experience with anyone who 'has ears to hear'. The manuscript has been written for 'Motivated and Striving Upwards (MS_Up)' and hopefully will be published soon. This book should be a must read for all of us who want to understand the power of what we have with Nikken."

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: "Just part of the family"

"A trip clear across the country and then back home again in less than 48 hours will bring out the best or the worst of someone. I'd like to think that what I experienced last weekend was the best in all of us who took part in a 5 Pillars of Health Super Saturday. I don't remember ever laughing so hard and then shedding so many tears in one weekend. These experiences always leave me with a renewed appreciation of what the Nikken family truly is... A group of folks dedicated to improving their own lives and then sharing that same experience with others.

What made the day so special for me was that it was 19 years to the day of when I first heard of Nikken. September 24, 1992 is a day that I'll never forget! Dennis Williams drove almost 3 hours to my parent's house to tell our family about this company that he and Ruth had discovered nine months earlier.

Maybe it was just me, but I think anniversaries like that are meant to be special. I know that there are several people who spent that day wondering if what we shared from the stage was actually true or if we were just making it up. One thing is for sure, people's lives are impacted every day when they experience the Nikken solutions for themselves, both physically and financially. All (in) all, they're now just part of the family!"

Vance's Email said: "What will the new water system be like? Will we see a totally new compensation plan? Will Nikken continue to service product parts even after they're discontinued?

These were just a few of the topics discussed on the President's Club call today. My goal on Saturday is to divulge as much intel as I can without getting myself in trouble. The line will be open for Q&A for questions relating to the topics discussed. In other words, I won't be answering questions about how magnets work"

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: "One month and counting!"

"If you've been a Nikken Wellness Consultant for any length of time, then you know what it's like to enjoy new solutions when they are revealed. And what makes it just as much fun is when we are equipped to share those solutions with others, thus getting rewarded financially. My fellow President's Club member Michael DiMuccio sent this out today:

I am on the PC Call as I write. I couldn't even wait for the call to be over. What I just heard in short is that this convention will be the launch of what will be heralded as NEW INDUSTRY SETTING STANDARDS in both Network Marketing AND Wellness! If you are on the fence about going to the convention, I urge you to make the decision to be there on behalf of yours and Nikken's future success.

I couldn't agree with Mike more! As soon as the call finished I called several leaders around the country and shared with them what I just learned. It's NEVER too late to make a decision. Last minute airfares are sometimes the best deal. And there are always plenty of hotels available across the street from the 'Happiest Place on Earth'.

If you're looking to cut the cost by sharing a hotel room with someone, I'd be happy to assist by connecting you with others who are looking to do the same. I AM NOT a dating service, but I will do my best to connect you with a same gender roommate. Send name, email and phone to: vsrogers995@aol.com "

Stream the September 10, 2011 Sat AM Live Call with Carl Eaton.
Weekly Announcements  Flyer for South Carolina Super Saturday Sept. 24, 2011. - From Vance's Email: "Carl Eaton is one who embraced change when his place of employment closed. "Comcast may have shut down our office, but they didn't shut down my dream of living in a beautiful part of the country where my kids grew up". Faced with no job Carl went on a search of home based businesses and discovered Nikken. As a Silver he has been able to go full-time due to earning checks over $10,000 a month."

Webmasters comments: Carl is quick to point out that what he has been doing for the last nine months is not for everyone.

Not having had much success with the normal network marketing model of only looking for business builders, he was smart. He stopped, took some time off, evaluated what worked, "The Nikken Products" and what didn't work, not listening to what people were telling him they wanted or needed.

He successfully tweaked how he was sharing the business with people. It sounds very intriguing and the results must be very gratifying. Another fantastic Nikken Win, Win Story!

Thank you Carl for taking the time to share your business building tips with us!

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: "If it ain't broken, fix it anyway!"

"This motto may not be posted on the walls as a core philosophy at Nike's World Headquarters here in Oregon, but you can ask anyone who's been with the company for a few days and they'll tell you that change is inevitable with this shoe and fashion giant.

In a few weeks time we're going to experience some major changes in the solutions that Nikken has provided for us. What if it were possible to produce high alkaline water like what we've enjoyed from the PiMag Optimizer from a device that doesn't use electricity? Or what would it be like to have the latest advancements in water technology long before any other company even dreams of the idea?

Nikken has always been several steps ahead of what can be found at Target, Walmart or any other store. And what's best is that they know how to provide us with the solutions to meet the ever changing culture that we live in. Sometimes it's hard for us to change, but the sooner we accept it, the easier it is to make the biggest impact on our own wellness and then on those around us."

Bergisterol Suggestions  A Happy Birthday Wish For Vance. - Direct from Vance: "Sherry Marshall and Fleeta Taylor are sisters who are a force to be reckoned with. There's no rivalry amongst these two, but just the opposite. Ask anyone in the San Antonio or Austin area and they'll tell you that these gals know how to have a good time sharing Nikken solutions with others.

I call them the 'Platinum Powerhouse' because when you hear what they've done to impact people's lives, you'll learn how great a team effort can be."

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: "Sibling Rivalry?"

"Of all the birthday cards I've ever received in my life, I've never laughed as hard as I did when I read the card from my brother Nick. Let me describe it to you...

It's one flat piece of card stock with the left side torn off. On the back it has the usual greeting card name and bar code. There's no cover to open up. It's simply a flat card with this written on it:

"If you're wondering what happened to the other half of this card, it was already used for someone else! We hope you have a great day."

Maybe I'm a bit warped, but I think it's hilarious.

Remember, as great as electronic communication is, a hand written note will go a long way. I'll cherish this one from my brother for years to come. A note with a Power Patch stapled to it could change someone's life forever."

Stream Announcements. - This Week Vance Wrote: "What story has the 'Nikken Solutions' helped you create? Is it something small or is it life-altering? Whatever story you're now living as a result of Nikken is worth sharing.

I've arranged several amazing stories from people around North America. Some of them will leave you speechless and others will cause you to shake your head in disbelief."

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: 'Share your story...'

"You always know a good movie by the reaction of the audience when the credits start rolling. Few movies that we've seen have kept people stuck in their seats. 'Schindler's List', 'The Passion of the Christ' and 'Titanic' are a few that come to mind where literally no one moved when the final song started playing.

If it's been awhile since you've paid $8, $10 or $12 to take in a flick, then I cannot encourage you enough to go see 'The Help'. You'll laugh, cry, shake your head in anger and leave the theater a changed person. And the best part is that you'll have a deeper appreciation for sharing your story with those around you.

When we share our story something inside of us comes alive. There is a sense of liberation that takes place when we put words to an experience and pass that onto another person."

Stream the August 20, 2011 Sat AM Live Call with Nikken Vice President of Sales, Jonathan Hallstrom.
Stream Announcements. - Vance's Email stated: "This weekend we are blessed to spend 40 minutes with one of the newest members of the Nikken family, our new Vice President of Sales, Jonathan Hallstrom. After talking with him a couple times, I can tell you that he has a passion to assist us as we assist others in their journey of wellness. We'll get to know about his background and why he is so excited to be part of our family. Trust me, you're gonna really like him!

Take two minutes and watch Jonathan's video address at: http://www.mynikken.com/index.cfm"

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: 'Now this, is Family!'

"We've all experienced that sense of family at any gathering of like-minded people. At church, a garden club or volunteer organization, each group brings that special connection. These words were echoed many times last Saturday as 135 people gathered at the home of Dennis & Ruth Williams for a full day education, motivation and good ol' fashion inspiration. And the gourmet lunch was priceless!

I've been to many events similar to this, but I guess what struck me was during the drive back home when one of my passengers was completely speechless. 'It will take me days and weeks to process through this experience. I have never really been to anything like that before'.

And then there was my friend Andy who even got choked up three days after the event when I asked him how he and his wife enjoyed it. 'It was the truest sense of family that we've ever seen!'

Nikken truly is a family of like-minded people who simply want to share solutions that have changed their lives. There are people waiting to discover what we have. We won't know who they are till we invite them to join us."

Stream the August 6, 2011 Sat AM Live Call with Herb Rapp.
Stream Announcements. - Quoting Vance: "I am so thrilled to have Herb Rapp join us again! He lives the concept" of using powerful words "everyday and he can literally ignite a room upon entering it. The last few months he has acquired several new amazing results with people that some would find hard to believe. And it all started with him speaking good things into existence.

If you've never heard Herb before, then you're in for a real treat. If you have, then it will be nice to hear the latest from this 20 year seasoned network marketer. And I do believe he's going to have some of his new Wellness Consultants on the line to share their experiences."

Vance's Weekly 60 Second Tip: "Power of spoken words"

"It's been proven that the words we speak control our habits, our lifestyle and our future. Many of us have seen this first hand when we use negative words rather than positive ones. We often refer to a traffic signal as a stop light when in fact it allows people to go just as much time as it requires us to stop, but again, we call it a 'stop' light.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when I hear people say the phrase, "I'm terrible with names!" I used to just let it go, but the last few years I've looked them straight in the face and asked this question, "Why do you program yourself to fail?" Of course I ALWAYS receive a perplexed response in return, but then I take a minute or so to offer a better alternative than the negative programming.

If we want to be more optimistic, then we have to start with the little things. If it's hard to remember people's names, then a simple phrase like, 'I'm not perfect at remembering names, but everyday in every way I'm getting better'. When we speak the positive into existence, then certain chemicals are released into the body to allow us to perform at a better level.

Words are powerful so let's use them well."

Stream the July 30, 2011 Sat AM Live Call with Dr. Ted Lehman.
Stream Announcements. - Quoting Vance: "Dr. Ted Lehman has spent his life studying the human body in order to make small changes that usually develop into big results. Since he retired a few years ago he admits that he's really had more fun because he's not under the confines of western medicine. Or as a friend shared with me yesterday, the 'hack and slash' methods that we use here (in America) before looking into letting the body heal itself.

Of all the guests that I wish I had a photo to include with this note, Ted would be at the top of the list. In his 80's, he doesn't look a day over 50, is an avid snow skier and has an infectious spirit that leaves a mark on everyone he meets."

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Small changes equal big results..."

"In Portland, Oregon, tomorrow marks the 4th annual Day of Service at Roosevelt High School. A few years ago this same school was slated to be closed due to lack of enrollment, funding and all-around poor conditions. 20% of the student body were homeless and 80% of them were on the federal food program for breakfast, lunch & dinner! The physical conditions of the campus were reflected in the overall moral of the student body. That changed when over a thousand people showed up to lend a hand.

What started in 2008 with a challenge by a pastor from a church across town has developed into a grassroots movement. People in mass, offering a small portion of their time to see big results. It's estimated that a million dollars has been saved in the care of this amazing school by this group of people lending a hand.

My mom shared something similar to this concept at our Wellness Preview this week. It takes all of us who have experienced Nikken's brand of wellness to share it with the handful of people whom we know and invite them to join us. We've got a huge task ahead of us, but with dedicated commitment, we can change the future of wellness, both physically and financially. Nikken has given us the opportunity, it's our job to enlist the masses."

Vance's Weekly Tip: "No matter how good a cause, it's just an excuse now. Pass the torch to someone else." Redeeming Love - Francine Rivers

"As great as it is to be Wellness Consultants and feel obligated to share the gift of Nikken with others, we're really missing the mark if we let that obligation fuel our fire. What should motivate us is this...

It's just the right thing to do!

"It's not because it's a cause to change the world or because we've had such a fantastic product experience, it's simply because it's our duty as morally minded people to pass the torch to those who's light is dim. And physically and financially speaking, there are millions of people right now who are struggling to get their light burning again."

"I just share simple facts and ask questions that cause people to think", Gordon shared with me on the phone yesterday.

Not only will he share some super simple tips for moving 6-packs of PiMag Sport bottles out your door as fast as you can order them, Gordon will also be doing some Q&A for anyone who wants to jump on the line and join the conversation."

Vance's Weekly Tip: Can we be too healthy?

"Vance, not everyone wants to be a health nut like you! We want the real ice cream bars with all the junk in them that's bad for us."

"I received this text from a fellow firefighter the other day who was giving me a hard time about my choice of organic sorbet bars that I purchased for the department. It's all part of the sparring that takes place amongst the gang.

The question deserves an answer though. Can we as Wellness Consultants project an image of being too healthy? I think if we're not careful, people will label us as health nuts when we make certain choices and we can send the wrong message.

When you take 3 1/2 minutes to watch this video and make it part of sharing Nikken with others, people will understand:  http://awakeupstory.healthychild.org.

We have our work cut out for us, but it's through one friend at a time that we can show the world that simple changes will not only affect our future, but the future of every generation to come."

Vance's Weekly Tip: Listen to their actions, not their words.

"Like many small towns in rural America, the 4th of July is a big deal in Corbett, Oregon. From the Kiwanis pancake breakfast to the 30 minute firework show, the day is packed with fun for all ages. The members of Fire District #14 get a special job of leading and pulling up the rear during the three mile parade on the old scenic highway. The best part though is for the families that choose to ride on top of the trucks and throw candy at everyone along the route.

For our 17 month-old new American citizen, this was her first celebration of this special day. She was amazing as she took turns sitting on dad & moms lap waving at all the people who kept yelling 'Happy 4th of July!' After almost 90 minutes of this though, she let us know that she was done by grabbing her blanket and simply laying her head down.

How many times do people say one thing and yet their actions speak something entirely different? I was reminded this week that we really need to listen to what people are doing, not what they're saying. This can be anything from the look on their face during a product demonstration or their lack of ability to return a phone call (usually this is because they recently broke all their fingers and can't push the buttons on the phone).

So let's pay more attention to what people are saying with their actions rather than what they are saying with their words. As our pastor always says, 'People vote with their feet'."

Stream Announcements.  . - Quoting Vance's Email: "Kay Logan didn't get into Nikken because she was a savy business woman who recognized the opportunity of a lifetime. Instead, it was because a drunk driver changed her life forever. As she says, 'as a result of that accident, my car and my life were in the exact same condition... A mangled piece of wreckage! Two years later I still lost food out of my mouth, drooled and couldn't even comb my own hair.'

If you want to hear a powerful story of a life turned around by Nikken, then this is the call to be on! Invite a friend who may not have heard what can happen when our lives intersect with the power of Nikken. http://www.youtube.com/user/n2bettersolutions.

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Just the facts Ma' am, only the facts", Joe Friday from the TV series Dragnet

In an era when we can get overwhelmed with details, it's nice to have the simple facts. Kids come home from school or an event bubbling over with emotion only to get frustrated when trying to describe how this was the bestest thing ever in their life.

Do we do this when trying to share the gift of Nikken? I wish I could say I never have, but that wouldn't be the truth.

Here's a proven method that helps contain the enthusiasm while communicating the truth. Ask more questions during conversations and then tuck that intel away. Coming back to a person's response a few minutes later or even days down the road communicates to them that you were listening intently and that you're willing to put them first rather than your agenda."

Stream the June 25, 2011 Sat AM Live Call with Dave Balzer Introducing the Awesome New "Clean, Green, Smart Sports Bottle".
Stream Announcements.  Coming after July 1st - Download Dave's Powerpoint Presentation. - Quoting Vance: "We all know that the fountain of life really doesn't exist, but Nikken's PiMag water is definitely the closest thing to it. As the head of Nikken's product development team, Dave Balzer is an expert on the benefits of this and he's the best person to introduce the new Sports bottle coming July 1st.

We know a few things about this great product, but if you want to know EVERY detail to ensure you'll have yours ASAP, then you don't want to miss this call with Dave. Invite one of your water drinking friends to join you by calling them before you dial-in and then 3-way into the line. It's really easy to do, "I don't know you, but I see that you're drinking bottled water. Would you like to eliminate that expense and have the best water on the planet for about $40?" Now you have a water drinking friend!"

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Got 45 seconds?"

If you'll give me 3/4 of a minute, I promise to give you something worthwhile to use in your Nikken business and your life! With the overwhelming amount of emails received, I know how precious time is & my goal is to give you a compact nugget that makes your time invested worth it.

The latest Pirates of the Caribbean movie has been in theaters just over a month and has taken in just under a billion dollars. I liked this movie for several reasons and the biggest one is because it's cleverly written and keeps the audience attention from beginning to end.

The entire story is built around everyone's quest in life: To find the fountain of youth. We may not sail ships to the far ends of the earth, but most of us will do what we can to cheat the end of life as long as we possibly can. And better yet, we'll go to some pretty amazing extremes to keep our bodies in tip-top shape to function better every day.

If nearly a billion dollars has been spent on people viewing this quest, how much money is out there ready to be invested in the real thing? With our products, we truly have the fountain of life that people are searching for!"

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Pajama's are for the bedroom. We don't need to be that comfortable when we go out!" - Jennifer Lopez   "People today are at one end of the spectrum or the other when it comes to being comfortable with how they look. There's the token 'Walmart shoppers' wearing stuff that shouldn't be worn in public and then there is the other extreme that look like they walked right out of Vogue magazine. Where do we find balance?

It's estimated that there are 11 million cosmetic surgeries every year in the United States alone! Obviously, people do care about what they look like. I read one report of a gal who had spent over $110,000 on the 54 surgeries that she had undergone!

Wellness is a key issue and it's front and center in our world. What better time to be introducing folks to Vital Wellness and asking them the question, 'Do you keep your financial and physical options open?' The introduction of the Vital Wellness Packs have given us a whole new company! It's like starting a path to wellness all over again."

This Saturday we're going to hear from folks that have taken part in some of the larger events during the last month. Several hundred gathered in both Austin & Orlando and a few folks have agreed to share what the excitement was all about. If you want to hear the latest about packs, products and promotions, then I encourage you to join us."

I really am excited, it's just that my sisters volleyball games are sooo long!

Vance's Weekly Tip: Merry Christmas!   "Am I too early to send out Christmas cards? I often do this in the Spring and Summer months just to get a reaction out of people. With what has taken place in the last few weeks I really feel like we've been given early Christmas presents. What we had with Nikken a month ago is literally a different opportunity compared to what we have today.

I'm not just talking about new products that will be coming on the 1st day of the next two months either. I'm talking about the simplicity of sharing. Have you sponsored a new person in the last 24 hours? It's a completely new and easy to use process that blows people away right from the start.

Just as simple as wishing someone Merry Christmas and having them respond favorably back to you. When you show people how to increase their energy by tapping into Vital Wellness, then they'll see the need for a Vital Day Pack.

I attached the Vital Pack flyer so you can see for yourself. If you want the retail version, click on the link at the top right of Nikken's website. This is as simple as opening a Christmas gift. All we have to do is spread the joy!."

Changing Lives - Stream the May 21, 2011 Sat AM Live Call.  Stream Announcements. - Quoting Vance: "During the last couple months I've heard some fantastic stories of what Nikken is doing in people's lives. I've asked a few people to jump on the line with me to not only share their story, but how we can use these stories help open people's minds to what Nikken has to offer them, both physically and financially."

Looks Like Vance ATE WELL while at camp!    Vance's Weekly Tip: Statistics may startle, but stories sell.

"I just spent two days with 180 Jr. Highers and 20 parents. I love kids, but I fully understand why God gave me three daughters. 12 boys going to bed at 1:00 am and then waking up before 6 has left me just a bit hung over. Or maybe it was the almost four hour drive to and from the camp?

Being part of an over achieving dish crew gave me quite a bit of free time to hang with the parents and really get to know people. Not once did I have to ask people what they did for an occupation. We simply swapped stories about life and before long the job question would be asked of me. I usually said, "I work from home for a Japanese wellness company called Nikken that helps people improve both physical and financial wellness".

Some wanted more info. and some wouldn't. What I found fascinating is that if you let people talk, they'll tell you exactly what they're looking for when it comes to improved wellness. Each time I'd share another story about one of my Nikken family members, they would ask more questions. I had more fun telling stories about what Nikken has done for people, especially the emotional ones because even the tough dads would get teary eyed.

Here's the bottom line, stories will sell what we have way faster than trying to impress people with facts and figures. Listen to CD's like Freedom 2015 or Three Years to Freedom to gather a few great stories. Or attend the events close to you and ask people their story. Or if you don't have any first hand, use some from the file I've attached. Share these stories with others and you'll be well on your way being a story of success yourself."

Steven B. Stevens and Barb Satterwhite - Stream the May 14, 2011 Sat AM Live Call.  Stream Announcements. - Quoting Vance: "Of all the people that I know who live by the principles above, Steven B. Stevens & Barb Satterwhite are at the top of my list. Steven comes from a background in television & radio and Barb is a retired nurse. What both of them have in common is their ability to make friends easily and always leave a conversation looking forward to the next.

Their simple dialogue will not only be entertaining, but educational at the grass roots level. We all could use a few tips on better 'friendshiping' and these two will definitely deliver."

Vance's Weekly Tip: 'Someone is speaking well of you'. Chinese fortune cookie'

"Have you ever stopped to think why we live in a constant state of fear? The bible says that we're not supposed to 365 times(one for each day of the year) and yet we're always wondering what's going to happen next that isn't good. Or, we wonder what people will think of us or are thinking of us.

I remember Ed Wiens saying that too much of our day is spent worrying about what other people think when those people don't even give a rip about us! (Well, maybe he didn't say it exactly that way, but you get the point.) What if we all worked on the healthy mind pillar a little bit and went about our day thinking that someone out there is speaking well of us?

As you read that last sentence, do the corners of your mouth turn up a little bit and you start feeling good about yourself? This is the power of your mind actually believing the truth and thus releasing good chemicals into your body. As a result, we've now impacted two of the five pillars in a positive way!

"I guarantee that we're gonna see new packs and a whole new vision for sharing Nikken with others. Join Wellness Consultants of the Year Mac & Pat McTerry along with Chris Gullo, Reid Nelson and Dennis Estes."

Vance's Weekly Tip: 'A vision without a plan is only a dream.' - Matt McNeil    'I've got vision & the rest of the world is wearing bi-focals.' - Butch Cassidy

"These two quotes have been going around and around in my head the past few days. We got to experience vision and planning through our nine year old Emily when she competed at the Oregon State Gymnastics competition last weekend.

My wife Stacey sat down with her a few weeks ago and they put some goals on paper as to how she'd like to do now that she had qualified to compete at the state level. She didn't know what to expect as this was her first year competing in this sport. Beam has always been her best event so she wrote down 8.95 as her goal.

I wish you could have seen this 50 pound little girl as she sat on the side waiting for her score to appear on the digital board. I don't know who was more anxious, her or us.   9.150  

Out of a perfect 10 that doesn't seem like much, but she not only exceeded her goal, but she placed 8th in the entire state of Oregon! And the 7 girls ahead of her were only a fraction of a point in front. Can you tell that I'm just a little bit proud?

Do we have a vision for sharing Nikken with others? Have we written it down or do we take time each week to think about expanding it? What plans have we put in motion to see that vision accomplished? If a nine year old can do it, what's our excuse?"

Master Prospectors Denny and Char Rogers - Stream the April 30, 2011 Sat AM Live Call. - This week Vance wrote: "There is no better couple that I know of than Denny & Char Rogers when it comes to confidently sharing what Nikken can do for a person. Yes, I'm bias because they're my parents, but I've had a front row seat watching them make friends in a matter of seconds with total strangers in any given setting.

If you've ever wanted to get a boost when it comes to expanding your circle of influence, then this is a call that you don't want to miss. We all could use a few more friends and Dad & Mom will give you a few tips on how to connect with people at any level in any place you might happen to be."

Vance's Weekly Tip: Confidence

"The school that I graduated from 25 years ago next month has changed a bit since I walked those halls. This week I snuck into the 'morning meeting' at the Junior High School so I could hear some of the 8th grade speeches. This five minute talk on any subject is given to the entire student body and it is a requirement to graduate.

I wasn't quite prepared for the young man who spoke on the above topic. He not only delivered one of the best speeches that I've heard in a long time, but he did it with such ease. Funny, serious, deep and light-hearted, he packed it all in.

As I walked out of the building I really felt like I'd been given a shot in the arm or maybe it was a kick in the rear? If a 14 year old can stand in front of his peers and speak with confidence on that same topic, why can't I share this gift of Nikken confidently with other people? After all, we can't have 35 years of coincidences with products and a business opportunity that 'might' change people's lives. This thing really works!"

Sue Thompson - Stream the April 23, 2011 Sat AM Live Call. - Quoting Vance: "Few embody more passion for life than Sue Thompson. The word 'cancer' was spoken over her and yet she refused to allow it to take her out of the game. Through taking ownership of her health, Sue has defied the doctors and medical journals to overcome her obstacle and is being called a "medical miracle".

Living completely pain free today, she enjoys all kinds of physical activity including playing with her granddaughters. Her son, Brooks Thompson, is also a firm believer in what Nikken can do as he coaches college basketball(see article in the winter issue of the Nikken Family magazine). Sue will definitely inspire you to grab hold of what Nikken has given us and share it more passionately than ever before.

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Powerful Words"

Most of the calendars around the world recognize today as Good Friday. Many will ask, 'What made is so good?'. I firmly believe is was the three words spoken by Christ before He died, 'It is finished!'. Regardless of our faith or lack thereof, the power of words is something that even science will tell you can completely change any situation. A dear friend sent me this link that clearly shows in less than two minutes just how powerful words can be, especially when used in the right context.

Gordon Williams - Stream the April 16, 2011 Sat AM Live Call. - Vance sent this out in his weekly email: "Gordon & Jeanne Williams know what it means to invite others to join them on an incredible journey. When they were introduced to Nikken, Gordon had been working in the Automotive Paint & Supply business as an outside sales rep calling on body shops and construction companies in Colorado and Jeanne worked for US West Direct selling yellow page ads.

Both were making good money but Gordon admits that he was burned out and looking for something that was more positive. At 54, it's not exactly the best time to make a career change, but after a product experience, he gave notice at his job and began working Nikken full time. Four years later Jeanne quit her job and they've been enjoying this journey ever since. Now in their 70's, they say that they're 'semi-retired'. After all, how can you ever retire from something that provides so much joy and fulfillment?"

They have put together a fantastic website for everyone to use and profit from. The link for it is below.

Vance's Weekly Tip: "If you go to an event by yourself, you'll get educated. If you go to event with others, you'll get paid! - Dave Stoltzfus"

Rick Murphy shared this quote on my call a couple weeks ago and I just can't get it out of my mind! It's driving me literally crazy thinking about how many wonderful people I'd like to join me at the Nikken convention in October. I've even considered calling a friend in Anaheim and asking him to send me a bunch of postcards that I can send to folks with the note, "Looking forward to seeing you here on October 14th & 15th!" It's with that spirit that I ask you these questions, have you thought about going and what you need to do to get there at Nikken's expense? The qualifications are outlined on the Nikken website in the upper right corner of the page. Locate your current rank and make a game plan of what it's going to take to make it happen. Is it possible? "Whether you think you can or think you cannot, either way your right." – Henry Ford"

Also from his email: "Another call that you might consider that's hosted by Dr. John Jackson is one that I absolutely love to start my week off with...

A Prayer Conference Call for Nikken Wellness Consultants takes place each Monday morning at 7 Pacific Time. All are welcome on the call to share and pray together for a few minutes. Our company, our corporate leaders, our businesses, our downline and crossline, as well as our prospects, the country and our world all benefit from prayers of agreement. Please consider joining us."

Lee Landrud and Karen Eastwood - Stream the April 9, 2011 Sat AM Live Call. - Oh my gosh. If these ladies stories don't make you get off the couch and do something, I don't know what will. To quote Vance: "Karen Eastwood & Lee Landrud are two super chicks who know first hand the value of having a Nikken Wellness home. Both of these ladies are at a stage in life with most of their friends are considering retirement homes. And yet Karen & Lee are just getting started! I'll bet the thought of retirement rarely crosses their minds!

If you want to know the true value of what Nikken products can do to maximize those 'golden years of life', then I encourage you to join us tomorrow. Invite a mature friend to join or better yet, offer to do a 3-way phone call and tie them into the line. I assure you that they will hear some stories that will encourage them to discover for themselves why we're so dedicated to spreading the concept of every home a wellness home."

Karen Eastwood's Testimony about OsteoDenx, her heart and her pacemaker.

Vance's Weekly Tip: Since I started in Nikken almost 20 years ago there is one thing that continually amazes me... Wellness Consultants never act their age! I've had the privilege of meeting people in their upper years of life and yet they have more energy and spunk than some of my non-Nikken friends in their forties. What's the deal with that?

Our friend Dr. Caryl Guth is a perfect example. Every time I see her or attempt to keep up with her active lifestyle via facebook, I'm absolutely blown away by her vitality. When asked what her secret is, she always responds with, "Oh, that's simple, it's the PiMag water!".

Luis Kasaga, director of Nikken's Spanish speaking countries, reminded me of something last night at a Vital Wellness presentation.

"We can't create or destroy energy, we can only transform it".

The same thing is true of water. We've been given an incredible gift with all of our PiMag water products. Another super gal who lives life at full throttle passed on this fantastic link to me. This demo is amazing... on the Aqua Pour. They won't let us make these claims in the U.S... regulations, you know. Thanks Kay Bridges! 

Watch Video about the Singapore River's Water and the Aqua Pour Water Filtration System

And here is one more from my friend Don Ferris who just knew that our water units should do the trick for lessening our fears of consuming water that's been treated with iodine as a result of radiation poisoning. The good folks at consultant services did a fantastic job at addressing this.

'Thank you for contacting us. Although not specifically tested for the reduction of iodine as a water contaminant, the answer should be "yes". Activated charcoal based water filtration systems should be quite effective in reducing the iodine isotopes should they be present in the water. As a matter of fact, activated charcoals are "rated" by their iodine index, which is the number of milligrams of iodine they can absorb per gram of charcoal.'

When it comes to maintaining our edge and the 'fountain of youth', we've got to have the right fountain to drink from! If we're not using Nikken's PiMag water products in our homes then we're missing out on literally the best agua on the planet."

Let's do it!

Rick Murphy - Stream the April 2, 2011 Sat AM Live Call. - Wow - Rick shares with us, using his unmistakable style of total confidence, total commitment and total care. He was blessed by great people when he was at several crossroads in his life. Rick is so grateful for being introduced to Nikken. Now he "pays it back" by sharing his knowledge and skills with all that have a burning desire to participate in "Humans Being More" using Nikken as the vehicle. Share this call with others.

Quoting Vane's email: "What's most important to anyone who wants to build a solid future in Nikken is to ask yourself the question, 'Who are the five people I'm talking to this week?'". This statement was made by Rick Murphy a couple weeks ago and I just can't stop thinking how very true it is.

Rick has spent his life serving people. Whether it's on the sand in the Middle East fighting for freedom or in the homes of people here in the States showing them how to come home for good, he knows that true freedom comes with a price. He no longer suits up with the military garb, but the passion he learned on the battlefield is still conveyed every time he opens his mouth. Invite a friend to join you & I guarantee they won't need any coffee to start their day after hearing Rick share his heart!

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Meeting night checklist"

"Let's see...

Dennis Williams doing the Wellness Preview tonight - Check.

Five guests coming to their first presentation - Check.

First guest calls and says he can't make it - Check.

Second guest picked up on route to meeting - Check.

Third guest calls half way to the meeting... Dentist appointment with wife ran long and she is loopy, can't make it - Check.

Fourth guest texts a few minutes later... Not gonna make it - Check.

Fifth guest... No show - Check.

Do you ever go through a check list like this? Maybe it's just me, but I always work better when I have a 'to-do list'. Do you ever get frustrated when you know how much people will enjoy hearing about Nikken from someone as great as Dennis and then 80% of them don't make it to the presentation? Again, maybe it's just me.

Does a server at a restaurant cry their eyes out when we refuse a second cup of coffee or any other service? Never! Why should we dwell on what didn't happen when we can focus on the 20% that did?

Because I offered my neighbor a ride to the meeting, I also offered him the opportunity to ride back home with Dennis. I'm pretty confident he's gonna join us. What do you think?

Although it can be frustrating at times, I choose to dwell on the good and not the bad. Now I've got four more people to follow up with and plug into the next weeks meeting. Of course they'll have to settle for someone like Denny & Char Rogers or Reid Nelson as the presenter. Then there's always the weekly web-ex presentations that Dennis (Williams)does?"

Brent and Brenda Dean - Stream the March 26, 2011 Sat AM Live Call. - Quoting Vance's email: "Brent & Brenda Dean know what it's like to "Try Harder". At least that is the slogan for the company that Dean was part of for 13 years. He smiled real big when I quoted that line and quickly said that they really don't. Brenda heard about Nikken and just knew that it couldn't be as good as it appeared. The more she researched, the more she liked what she saw. This could just be the company they wanted to spend the rest of their lives working for."

The products did the job on 20 years of pain that started with Endometriosis and then Fibromyalgia 12 years ago. With that experience and the knowledge of the business model, Brent & Brenda knew that Nikken is their future.

Vance's Weekly Tip: "This is hard work!" - Jordan, age 9

"It's Spring Break here in Oregon and that means lots of Spring skiing on Mt. Hood. After being on the slopes since the age of 4, I've come to enjoy the sport so much more if I can pass on some of my knowledge to someone who wants to learn. I'm not a ski instructor by any means, I simply enjoy passing on the love of the sport to others.

Jordan is one of our daughter Emily's friends and while I was working with Emily on the snowboard for the first time, Jordan wanted to tag along so he could get off the bunny slope. His quote above came while we were half-way down a section that was anything but beginner level. I'd say it was closer to black diamond.

Now before you freak out on me and tell me how cruel I am for taking a 9 year old on a steep slope while he is still learning, let me explain my philosophy.

Anything in life that we feel is hard is hard for a reason. If we don't strain the muscle, then it becomes weak. If we want to become the best at something, then we're going to have to learn from those who know what they're doing. If we choose to challenge ourselves then we may find ourselves admitting that it's hard, but it will be so worth it in the end.

I've attached some notes"(see link above)"from Dave Stoltzfus that at first seemed hard for me to swallow. Dave has 40 years experience in the Network Marketing industry. If we'll do the hard things, we may never become experts, but we'll sure have fun in the process. And like Jordan, we'll finish each day with a huge heart of gratitude toward someone who was willing to push us a little further than we wanted to go."

Let's do it!"

Bill and Jo Dieckhoff- Stream the March 19, 2011 Sat AM Live Call. - Vance shares why he joined Nikken and Bill and Joe Dieckhoff tell their adventure of the past 12 days since Bill suffered a stroke March 7th. Bill states he feels his stroke was postponed 10 years and that his recovery was aided by using his "Wellness Rehab Room". It has been remarkable! He was in rehab only 7 days and was able to walk unassisted around the outside of the rehab center, over 1500 feet, the day he was discharged. Average stay at that center for a stroke victim is 17 days. Wow! Keep Getting better fast!

She grew up with great examples from her parents, taught health for 31 years, and experienced real world applications when her husband Don underwent a heart transplant at the University of Washington. The surgery left Katie's husband very weak and in poor health. Due to a fall, he broke his back within the first 6 months after the surgery. His organs were quickly shutting down and the doctors told them they had done all they could.

Then, someone introduced them to Nikken's sleep system and insoles. Within 6 months, the doctors proved with pre/post blood work that Don's kidneys had improved 10-fold. He lived 12 years longer with a good range of energy and health.

Vance's Weekly Tip: Personal Best

We've all heard these two words tossed around, but have we ever lived them fully? Three days ago, I think I came the closest that I'll ever be to actually giving my personal best both physically and mentally.

Here are the details... Strap on 50 pounds of firefighter gear including a full SCBA(Self Contained Breathing Apparatus). Use as many Nikken products as possible including two pair of Magsteps & 20 ounces of Rev-Up(thank you Hilary!). Ascend 1311 steps at the Columbia Center in Seattle. And do it all in under 20 minutes!!!

With a bottle change(SCBA air tank) on the 40th floor & a few seconds to chug another 20 ounces of Rev-Up, I finished the climb in 19 minutes and 41 seconds. This wouldn't have been possible for this 42 year old without the prayers and support of my Nikken Family. THANK YOU!

Many of us have done something like this in our lives at one point or another and yet sometimes we forget that we can do it everyday. I'm not talking about climbing 1311 steps, I'm talking about living out all areas of the 5 Pillars of Health giving our personal best. What would we look like if we did this?

Let's do it!"

Terry Latham - Stream the March 5, 2011 Sat AM Live Call. - Quoting Vance's email: "Terry & Erin Latham learned the hard way that working for someone else's dream leaves you with little time to enjoy your own. Being career minded, they jumped into the business world and soon discovered that they were making a good income, but they didn't have any time to enjoy the fruits of their labor.

Terry will be sharing with us the latest ideas and concepts that they have been using to 'bust things wide open' in Austin, Texas (if you say that with a southern twang it sounds better).

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Delayed Gratification...

Over 90% of the work force today is employed by someone else because we struggle with understanding these two words. We understand exchanging time for money, but we just can't seem to wrap our hands around this idea of spending time, energy and resources now on something that will pay us next month, next year & even next decade.

With the Latin Launch here in North America, people are starting to grasp the vision of just how big this is. The investment made up front into a few key people will pay off for years to come."

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Any dream worth dreaming translates into a plan of action". - Jason Vanya

For the past few days I feel like I've been living out a dream I had as a young man. Having two entrepreneurial parents with multiple businesses, I saw first hand their dedication to building their dreams. There are many benefits to owning your own business, but often times the business owns you. This was true for my folks.

What I dreamed about as a teenager was discovering a lifestyle that would allow you to generate income while you actually enjoyed that lifestyle. Being a full-time stay at home Dad was part of that dream. Stacey (my wife) and our oldest daughter Mac Kenna have been in Washington D.C. since Sunday. I've been on 'Import Duty' is how I describe it. The nine year old Chinese (Emily) and the 12 month old Ethiopian (Addi) have literally been my focus since I pulled out of the airport five days ago.

What I've enjoyed most about this time is that I have been able to continue building my dream while I'm living it. Taking Addi with me on appointments was something that I'll do more of in the future. What other business could you possibly do this with?

Vance's Weekly Tip: First Kiss

Two days and 17 years ago I kissed Stacey for the first time. Why am I telling you this? Because most of us can remember a first experience like that and we'll NEVER forget it!

Do you remember your first experience with Nikken? Why not? Have you forgotten how powerful it was and how wonderful the experiences are today?

Sometimes we need a reminder of that first kiss. I'm still talking about Nikken. If we've forgotten how wonderful our lives are maybe it's time to haul all the products to the garage and see how long it takes before we start bringing them back in.

When you bring them back in, ask yourself why these products are so important to you and your family because this may be the very thing to remind us as to why we should share this gift with others.

Vance's Weekly Tip: "In life we either we stare up the steps or we step up the stairs" - Zig Ziglar.

I believe that Zig is challenging us to simply do what it takes to get to the top of where we want to be. On March 6th I have been accepted along with 1500 firefighters from around the world to literally 'step up the stairs', 1311 of them to be exact. Along with three others from our department I will ascend 69 stories in full gear, with air tanks and breathing apparatus. My goal... Survive! Having a tombstone that reads 'Suicide by Steps' isn't something I'm considering.

One of my 'September Start the School Year Resolutions' was to push myself a little harder in each of the 5 Pillars. Training for this stair climb has more than pushed the Healthy Body pillar. So far I've logged in almost 9000 stairs and we've still got a month to go! At 42, I feel better than I did at 24 when I started this Nikken journey.

Without the Nikken products, there is NO WAY that I could pull this off. And even more important, I wouldn't even think about attempting it without our Nikken team cheering me on. This is where I need your support. I want to show my teammates the power of networking.

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Springboard.

Yesterday I took part in a memorial service for a man that I never knew and yet I benefit every day from his pioneering spirit. He was one of the founding members of the Corbett fire dept. I was among a few firefighters who followed a bag pipe processional to honor this man.

Frank Driver spent three years in a POW camp during WWII. This special group lost 37% of its population during their time in these camps. The survivors have three traits in common that all of us can learn from.

1) Sense of humor - Laugh at things more often
2) A 'Get Over It' attitude - Let things go so they don't weigh us down
3) Team spirit - Learn to work with those around us rather than against them

Frank was four days shy of his 90th birthday. The stories I heard were about a man who constantly took every challenge as an opportunity to make a difference.

Where would we be if we applied these three principles to our lives? I know one thing for sure. We'd springboard over every obstacle and turn it into an opportunity.

You were created for more than just average. Today is a new day, and there are new heights for you to climb. Pursue what you love and keep developing that area of your life. Take a class or find a mentor that will help you live skillfully. As you do, you'll rise up higher and higher. You will stand before leaders and rulers, and you'll live the blessed life God has in store for you!" - Joel Osteen

When I read this challenge a few days ago I just couldn't help but think how perfect it is for all of us who want to live our lives at a higher level. I know full well that there are a few people who don't want things any better than the way they are, but the vast majority want a better life. We want to live every day to it's fullest potential knowing that we've made a difference in our lives and the lives of other people.

Wellness Consultants can AND should be living this way every day. Once we do, then we'll impact our circle of friends and then it will spread from there.

New: The direct opposite of old. A clean slate. Indicating freshness and vitality. Alive in every way possible. Something with an aroma that is pleasant. The way we enter the world.

Year: A method of counting days. The way we track our age and yet want to erase it. A marking point of past, present and future.

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Nikken First Aid Kit

Every Wellness Consultant will agree that once you truly discover the greatness of Nikken's products, you find it difficult to live without them. Most of us have favorite's that we use every day and then there are those special few that make up our 'First Aid Kit'.

Sunday evening we noticed that Addi (11 mos.) had a runny nose. Not wanting that blessing to spread to the rest of us, I quickly grabbed a Lactoferrin capsule and gave her half of it mixed with some applesauce. I repeated this morning & night until the problem was eliminated.

In the end, we used all of two capsules to give her little body the boost it needed. This really isn't what most would consider a first aid type product, but it sure did the job in a short amount of time. Julia Leatherman was the one who shared this idea with me as she goes through this same routine with all her grandkids.

The moral to the story is that we must have the Nikken products on hand for every day use and for times of emergency. This sure beats going the conventional route of drugs! "

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Happy New Year! Happy: To choose everyday an attitude that displays cheer. To use a fraction of the muscles on one's face to form a smile. To make a decisive decision not to allow circumstances to impact the day. To be a thermostat, not a thermometer.

New: The direct opposite of old. A clean slate. Indicating freshness and vitality. Alive in every way possible. Something with an aroma that is pleasant. The way we enter the world.

Year: A method of counting days. The way we track our age and yet want to erase it. A marking point of past, present and future.

All three of these words together are teaming with optimism! We can make this year our best ever when we choose to. Let's do it!"

Download notes from December 18, 2010 Sat AM Live Call with Pauline Antonakos. - Quoting Vance's email: "Two weeks ago we were introduced to Pauline Antonakos. She's worked with a Lumotron for almost 20 years and has developed quite a bit of knowledge in the field of full spectrum lighting. She's agreed to join us again for some Q&A from the listeners. So this is your chance to really understand the benefits that the new Kenko light can provide. If you've got a question, then Pauline more than likely has an answer."

Sorry. Due to technical difficulties, the call was not recorded. If anyone has made a recording of it, we would greatly appreciate you sharing. 

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Power of 3

In the real estate industry the 3 magic words are location, location, location. In the culinary world of French cooking the 3 secret ingredients are butter, butter and butter. In baseball its 3 strikes and you're out! And we've all heard the phrase, the 3rd time's the charm.

Stealing from the wisdom of Dave Johnson and Jerry White, I can't help but think how powerful it would be to use the numbers 35, 35 and 35.

For $35 retail you could benefit tremendously by wearing one of Nikken's Power Band bracelets. If you want to get it wholesale, then invest $35 and get on the path of a wellness home. And when you do, know that you are linking arms with a company that has 35 years in the wellness industry.

We tend to over complicate things. Let's start our own power of 3 and really have some fun when introducing people to Nikken."

Most have heard Dave on a call, CD or even in person. The beautiful thing is that you can never get too much of him!

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Stability

In a culture where the average college graduate will switch careers 13 times by the time they celebrate their 35th birthday, it sure is nice to have some stability in a company. This month marks our 18th year with Nikken and I am truly thankful that we are part of something that has a proven track record.

Dave Johnson said something years ago that I'll never forget. "Have you noticed that when someone leaves Nikken to work with another Network Marketing company, before long, that company becomes 'companies'?" I guess since people change jobs quickly, why would it be any different in our industry.

Reid Nelson shared with me that a new Wellness Consultant was literally blown away at our recent Product Launch because of the tenure of people in Nikken. He said that he'd been involved with a couple other companies and he'd never heard of people being part of something for 10, 15 and 20 years!

We not only have company history to be proud of, but we have committed leaders who know the value of that history and are more determined than ever to invest their time into the next generation of leaders. I guess it's up to us to tap into what we have and run with it! "

Her specialty is using light therapy to treat her clients. For over 10 years she has used a $10,000 full spectrum light with amazing results." What shocked me when speaking with Pauline was when she said that the Kenko Light is better than the one she uses because it's affordable, portable and will blow away any new technology Nikken's ever introduced!   Stream December 04, 2010 Announcements 

Vance's Weekly Tip: "The value of Health

After traveling for over 30 hours and not being horizontal in a bed for 56, I can speak with authority on the value of health, or the lack thereof. The human body can only endure so much without proper rest & relaxation.

Having a Nikken Wellness Home truly gives us the advantage to bounce back from the everyday stress that we put our bodies through. I totally understand that it's not normal to go 56 hours without being in a bed, but international travel sometimes requires it. The beautiful thing is that we get to enjoy the benefits of Nikken's products to rejuvenate our bodies so much faster than those without.

I've attached an updated version of 'Nikken Gift Idea's'. to remind us all that we can give the gift of health this Christmas. After all, sometimes we forget the value of it until it's not there. "

Vance's Weekly Tip: 'Just around the corner'

We've all heard this phrase many times, but do we really understand how powerful it can be? For example, Christmas is just around the corner (5 weeks away). This may cause sheer panic for some and for others it's an opportunity to take advantage of a giving spirit."

Download this document  that "June Silva has used for years with great success. People love to give this time of year and what better gift than life changing products that keep giving for years to come. Include it with your Christmas cards. Do a mailer to your friends. Keep a few in your car to pass out to people you see around town.

What I like about the flyer is that we can use the old bait and switch routine as well. When handing the flyer to someone don't forget to throw in the fact that some of these products were just updated because Nikken wanted to improve on excellence. Something like, "We need to get together so I can show you how powerful our latest additions are? What works best for you, Tuesday or Thursday?"

He shares what he has discovered in an open line format.   Stream November 6, 2010 Announcements 

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Voting our minds. . .

With any great victory comes defeat on the other side. The politicians who are celebrating their win now face the challenge of following through on their promises. We vote for these people hoping and believing that they will actually do this very thing.

Is it any different when we make the decision to live in wellness? It's scientifically proven that our minds control the outcome before we physically make any change. If we want to defeat the lack of wellness in a particular area, we have to make the decision first in our mind.

I hope that all of us continue to vote for wellness in every area of our lives. It's totally our decision. With 114 Launch sites around North America, next weekend we can vote wellness into people's lives by inviting them to join us. I encourage you to get on the phone and have your own calling campaign."

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Lessons from Ethiopia. . . It's 3:00 in the morning and I can't help but think to myself, "For a third world country, these guys sure have great PA systems!" What's taking place on this Sunday morning is the Orthodox singing at decibel levels that I'm sure neighboring countries can hear. My relief comes at 5:00 when they actually finish. The sweet sounds of silence give me comfort that I can now sleep. Cue the rooster.

Of the many lessons I learned during our 5 days in Ethiopia last week (besides how to survive on less sleep) one was about modern technology. Regardless of where you are at in the world, something that is 'new & improved' doesn't mean anything unless it actually improves your quality of life. What Nikken introduced in Cancun at the Global Celebration definitely does this.

Vance's Weekly Tip: "It just keeps getting better. . . New products! New enhancements! New image! Just how great is the Nikken opportunity? With what was introduced last weekend in Cancun, I wonder if there is anything that can be done to top this. As Wellness Consultants we truly have the best kept secret. If there was ever a time to introduce our contacts to the Nikken, now is that time! November 12th & 13th are great days to plug into, but we don't have to wait until then. Invite people to join now and then have them get their contacts plugged into the upcoming product launch. There are 85 sites to choose from in North America. This will be a special time for them to experience these products first hand before they're available for individual purchase"

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Completion of a dream...
We hear phrases like 'someday I'd like to...' or 'when I make more money I'm going to...' or 'If I just had more time I would...' How many of us have said things like this over the years? Our dreams are vast and yet sometimes they are nothing more than just a wish because we haven't taken the first steps to see them fulfilled. Trust me when I say that I've been just as guilty of not putting wings to my wishes. In less than 48 hours our family will board a plane for Addis Abba, Ethiopia to complete a process that we started two years ago. Addison Ann Samrawit Rogers will be officially part of our family next Monday the 18th. At that point, all the adoption paperwork and long waiting process will fade into history. This 8 month old daring little girl will have a forever home in Corbett, Oregon. What are some of your dreams? What are some of the visions that God has birthed in your spirit? We all have them and yet so often we don't take the steps to complete them. If I learned anything at Humans Being More it was that we can accomplish our dreams when we set a course and stick with it."

Curtis retired from the Air Force and is currently working for the railroad. Victoria has worked in a variety of different fields for all of her life.

Vance's Weekly Tip: 'If it isn't broken, fix it anyways!'
A dear friend of ours is a designer at Nike and he shared that this statement is one of the core sayings that they use when thinking about what to create next in the arena of a great shoe. When our Auto-ship arrived yesterday I kept thinking about the fact that Ciaga really wasn't broken and yet Nikken stepped up to the plate to fix it anyways. I looked at the bottle of Ciaga-V, weighed it, tasted it and was completely blown away! Then I immediately sat down to read the brochure from cover to cover. WOW! What we've experienced with the Ciaga-V is just the icing on the cake of what is coming next weekend in Cancun. The new products, enhancements and even modifications to our marketing structure will blow us away. None of what we have to offer people is broken by any means, but Nikken is taking everything to the next level to fix it anyway.

Vance's Weekly Tip: "Dreaming of Independence
Every time I'm asked why I started in Nikken my first response is always just one word - "Freedom". The opportunity that we have as Independent Wellness Consultants is something that many people dream about, yet never attain. I was just talking with a friend who hosts a massive kid's consignment sale twice a year. Last weekend they had over 60,000 pieces of clothing, toys, etc. "When it's all done, I think I might have earned about a dollar an hour", she told me. You really cannot buy freedom with that! It does serve as a fantastic reminder though that we have the best vehicle to grant someone their freedom if they're willing to invest a few hours a week towards their future. What most spend watching TV could be invested in changing their destiny."

Weekly Tip: "Last weekend Stacey and I spent a couple days celebrating 15 years of marriage. Tomorrow we will celebrate 18 years since being introduced to Nikken. Another day that came this month for me was firmly establishing myself in the 40's category by turning 42. Anniversaries are great when we get to celebrate positive things. While at Home Depot yesterday one of the employees said to me, "I wish your Dad would have found me five years ago! I know I would be celebrating a completely different life today than I am now." Frederick was the employee who helped my Dad find a computer cord and yet now my parents are helping him find a better future.

Weekly Tip: "Keeping more of what we earn. . .

Dennis Williams has a way of presenting information that makes people think about their situation. One of the things that I remember hearing years ago is that most people work until the middle of May just to pay taxes. That means we give the first five months of the year to the government. Some economists are now saying that this is actually going all the way into August!

Reid Nelson and I make it a point at our Portland meetings to share with folks that just because we earn a six-figure income doesn't mean that we have to pay a lot in taxes. The last few years we have both been paying less than 20% of what Nikken has paid us. Reid & Yvonne are approaching their 20 year renewal date and so far they've earned over 21 million dollars! And the best part is that they've been able to keep over 80%!

Always remember that when we introduce people to Nikken, we give them the distinct opportunity to keep more of what they've already earned through the tax benefits of having a home-based business. Being able to deduct travel, meals, products, a portion of utilities, etc. can empower us to keep our money!"

Shy of surgery, Ray exhausted all the medical options to bring relief to his back. Waking up in the middle of the night with extreme depression, he knew that he had to do something. Little did he know that the answer to both his physical and financial problems would come with a random phone call from his cousin." August 28, 2010 Weekly Announcements 

Weekly Tip: "Back to school. Most of our friends are cheering on the fact that our little ones are headed back to school. The summer fun is drawing to a close and the normal routine is returning. We have the opportunity to empower our young people to excel in so many areas.

The Wellness Home is wonderful for giving us a leg-up when it comes to health, but have you ever thought about how instrumental healthy finances can be for this next generation? We are seeing people start Nikken earning from a few hundred dollars to a couple thousand in their first check. This definitely changes the home dynamics.

We can give people freedom with a few hundred extra dollars a month. Freedom to quit that second job and have more time with their families. Freedom to attend those school functions that they've missed before. Freedom to simply enjoy life for a change.

As kids head back to school let's remember to use opportunities to ask people the questions that will bring out an interest in Nikken."

"What I've been able to do through this business is take my gift of healing from one person at a time to several".

Weekly Tip: Are you ready to be the president of your own business?

This question is not the type of thing we would want to ask most people when introducing them to Nikken. In our cultural today this would scare away the majority of folks because they're simply looking to increase their cash flow without the stress of running a company. Thus the reason that most people are employees.

Last weekend Cheri Edwards shared a great tip when talking to people.

"I help people set-up their own home-based businesses. Are you interested in earning additional income?"

We're not asking people to manage a company with dozens of employees, track inventory, ship products, etc. Nikken takes care of all of that. What we are asking people to do is to take a look and see if they'd be open to earning extra income while being assisted by a group of successful people who have already done it. And the best part is that they get to impact the lives of people they know at the same time!"

*I assist people in discovering total wellness, both physically and financially.

*Imagine not having to worry about finances because you've invested in the lives of others that continue to pay dividends.

*It's great to enjoy a balanced lifestyle and show others how to achieve the same.

*I love being pain-free with no worries about side-effects.

Regardless of the statement, we can peak peoples curiosity by giving just a piece of what Nikken has to offer. Simple Statements have a way of saying more with less words."

Weekly Tip: "Walking around Oregon State University last weekend was overwhelming. I guess what really caught me off guard was the fact that this is the home to thousands of young impressionable minds who are doing what they think is best in order to make it in the real world. The sad part about college graduates today is that they will change jobs 13 times before their 35th birthday. It's not for a lack of jobs as much as it is a lack of direction. Most people will jump into something before they really understand that it's not the right fit for them and that it lacks the luster that they're looking for in a profession. As we approach people with the Nikken opportunity, let's remember to do our best presenting what Nikken has to offer.

In a society where the average college graduate will switch careers 13 times by the time they have their 35th birthday, it's no wonder why people will ask us if we are still working with Nikken.

Weekly Tip: "To all of the wonderful Wellness Consultants around the globe, If your diet follows the food advertisements you see on TV. . .well. . .let's just say you're an overachiever. In a new study (which can be filed under "Why did you bother to study that?" or more simply "Uh...duh"), researchers compared the nutritional content of food in TV ads to nutritional guidelines. Results? Take a wild guess. A "TV ad diet" would provide more than 2,500 percent of the recommended daily servings of sugars, more than 2,000 percent of the RDS for fat, but only 40 percent of the RDS for vegetables, and less than 30 percent of the RDS for fruits. The researchers conclude that TV ad food choices encourage nutritional imbalance. (Not to mention long lines in fast food drive-through lanes coast to coast.) It does make me wonder, though--if someone were to invest hundreds of thousands of dollars advertising apples on TV, would apples become wildly popular? I doubt it. Unless they were salted, sugared, deep fried, and dipped in chocolate. Hmmm...maybe I'm on to something. To Your Good Health, Jenny Thompson"

Weekly Tip: "Sweet dreams my darling. During our 14 years of marriage I make an attempt to always tell Stacey the same thing before we fall off to sleep. For those of you who are hopeless romantics, you're probably not going to like what I whisper in her ear, but she has yet to complain."Sleep well Wife." "If words made it that simple, then why do we need the Naturest sleep system? Words are powerful and yet Stacey & I fully understand the value of having the best system on our bed to ensure that we will get the rest we need. It's essential in order to keep up with two over-active girls and mandatory as we prepare for the third bundle of energy! We all know enough statistics about the power of a good night's sleep, but none of that matters without the emotion of a personal testimony. The Naturest sleep system was introduced a few months ago and the results have been life altering. And with free shipping till July 31st, what better time to introduce this technology to others?

Stream June 12, 2010 Sat AM Live Call with Herb Rapp. - To quote Vance: "Herb Rapp recently returned from Columbia and heard this story first hand. Herb is a former Tennis Pro Shop owner and has sense of urgency when it comes to sharing Nikken with others. He will be sharing with us some of what it takes to build an international business and why he is so passionate about the Nikken opportunity." Weekly Announcements 

Weekly Tip: "Objections - Amongst the list of objections to the Nikken opportunity, the one that we hear a lot is, "I don't have any money!". What's so goofy about that excuse is that those same people are probably the ones who find a way to buy a lottery ticket everyday. I recently heard a story about a man in the country of Columbia who truly didn't have a dime to his name. What he did have was tenacity. He literally started his Nikken business with the trimmings from his sponsors Magsteps. Doing the energy test demonstration, he asked people if they could imagine how much energy they would have if they had the entire insole, not just the trimmings. The full story is too long to type, but with his determination and those trimmings, he was able to go Silver in a short amount of time and earn over $50,000 his first full year with Nikken. It makes you think twice now if someone says they don't have any money.

Stream July 18, 2009 Sat AM Live Call with Joy Horton  Stream July 18, 2009 announcements  - To quote what Vance emailed out to us about Joy. "To all of our wonderful Wellness Consultants around the globe,
I (Joy) found Nikken just over eight years ago only months after the company opened in Australia. My neighbor had a knee replacement, came home from the hospital and continued to deteriorate in health. Home nursing care, many drugs and numerous specialist visits over the following months didn't stop his downward progression and eight months later he could no longer feel his feet. For four months he struggled with a walking frame and wheel chair, when the doctors told him they needed to amputate his legs.
This horrified us all in the neighborhood and we understood when Tom said he would rather die with his legs on. In the next weeks, he was unable to be present at a wedding that Pat and Mac McTerry were in Australia for. Mac said he may be able to help Tom, and I wanted to see what miracle this man thought he could perform.
I called in to see if the American man had come and what he'd done. We thought insoles and knee wraps looked inadequate for the task (to say the least), so I called in each day for an update. On about the 6th day, Tom answered the door himself, standing on his legs. Now I had questions rather than mocking and he promised to phone me when Mac returned to collect his insoles and other products.
I was intrigued enough to order some products before Mac left and I tried them on myself and my friends for validation. Since then I try them on everyone I engage in conversation. I learn from people's experiences on CDs and medical and scientific validation on DVDs which expand our knowledge "Down Under".
Every month I have earned an income. I drive a Nikken car and still thrill when people thank me after a presentation or a rollout and say they had a very interesting time and are glad they came. Although I am long retired, I see my 70's being very full and focused showing people technology they may never see if I don't step up and do what Mac did. I saw a headline : " Save yourself from a poor, sick old age " and everything in me responded "Thank you, Lord ,for Nikken products and marketing."
