The company is growing by leaps and bounds. California is now shipping product! Yeah!! That means I started receiving mine (more on that soon)!!

The only state remaining is NY, then all US States and Canada are eligible to receive customized wellcare based on your DNA.

The customer service issues have been resolved. Product is shipping in a tiemyl manner.

That means the company is rock solid and is no longer going to offer the discounted entry rates. Within 30 days, it will costs $300 to become a Genewize affiliate.

So if you’re onthe fence, NOW is the time to act: http://DNANutritionForLife.com

Other great news… Genewize is boosting their compensation plan so that our residual income checks will be doubled! That will happen in the next 30-60 days.

Enjoy your day!

Orlando Florida
Affiliate Event - This Friday and Saturday

Hilton-Orlando Atlamonte Springs
350 Northlake Blvd. Altamonte Springs, FL 32701 
Friday 7-10pm guest presentation
Saturday Training 9am-4pm

1. To help make it easier for qualified Affiliates to earn Sales Team Bonuses, we have reduced the (Pursuit Team) Sales Team Bonus volume requirement (BV) by 50%, from 500BV down to only 250BV for any pay period. This reduced Bonus Volume requirement makes it much easier for qualified Affiliates to earn both bimonthly Sales Team Bonuses and Matching Bonuses within their organizations. This change is effective immediately.
2. We have modified the Binary tree programming from “Automated Volume Flushing” to “Volume Expiration linked to Active Affiliate Status. (Begins with the December 30, pay period)

As a reminder, an Affiliate must be “Active” in order to receive Sales Team and Matching Bonuses. There are four ways for an Affiliate to remain “Active.”

1. In the previous 31 days before any pay period, the Affiliate has 150 monthly PBV (Personal Bonus Volume). For example: If an Affiliate has two personally enrolled “non Affiliate” customers who are successfully receiving Autoship in the previous 31 days (2 X 75 PBV = 150BV), then the Affiliate has met this requirement and is “Active.” Or,
2. In the previous 31 days before any pay period, the Affiliate has 75 PBV (Personal Bonus Volume) “personal Autoship.” This simply means the Affiliate is receiving their personal LifeMap Product on Autoship. Important Note: Even if an Affiliate is entitled to free product under the “Enroll Four Program” the Affiliate must still have a valid credit card in place to pay their monthly shipping and handling charge (currently $9.75/month). Or,
3. In the previous 90 days, the Affiliate has personally purchased an “Affiliate package that contains an “Autoship product.” Or,
4. In the previous 90 days, the Affiliate has personally enrolled a Customer with a Customer package that contains an “Autoship product.”

Additionally, an Affiliate must be in “good standing” and have paid their Annual Renewal fee (if applicable). See Annual Renewal Fee details to follow.

“Inactive Affiliates” are still eligible to receive Direct Commissions but are not eligible to receive Sales Team or Matching Bonuses (or until they return to “Active” status) and any banked Bonus Volume will be expire per the rules described in 2. a-d. If the Affiliate does not become “Active” within as described above, then any of the inactive Affiliate’s banked Bonus Volume expires.

A very simple way to communicate (and understand) this qualification is: Banked Bonus Volume for any Affiliate that is “active,” does not expire.

This change is effective for the pay period that begins December 30th 2008 and thereafter.

3. Customer Acquisition requirements for “Paid As” rank. (Begins with the pay period beginning January 27, 2009)

• One Star Affiliates must have one (1) personally enrolled “Active non Affiliate Customer” in order to be paid as a One Star Affiliate
• Two Star Affiliates must have two (2) personally enrolled “Active non Affiliate Customers” in order to be paid as a Two Star Affiliate
• Three Star Affiliates must have three (3) personally enrolled “Active non Affiliate Customers” in order to be paid as a Three Star Affiliate
• Four Star Affiliates must have four (4) personally enrolled “Active non Affiliate Customers” to be paid as a Four Star Affiliate

Definition of “Active Customer”

1. To be an “Active Customer” the previous 90 days, the Customer must have purchased a Customer package that contains an “Autoship product.” Or,
2. The Customer must have successfully received an Autoship order in the previous 31 days

This helps ensure a healthy and vibrant business model based in part on Customer acquisition.

Important note: Any “non Affiliate “Customer, that also enrolls Customers, will count towards an Affiliate’s Customer requirements. Example: If an Affiliate enrolls a Customer who enrolls three (3) Customers, that would counts as four (4) Customers towards the Affiliate’s Customer Acquisition requirements.

This change is effective with the pay period that begins January 27, 2009 and thereafter.

Clarification To Affiliate Policies and Procedures: Affiliate Membership and Annual Renewal Fee.

GeneWize is reducing the Annual Renewal fee from $59 to $49! However, rather than one yearly annual collection for all Affiliates, GeneWize will collect Annual Renewal Fees for certain Affiliates in early January 2009 and other Affiliates in early July 2009. The timing is based on when an Affiliate enrolled in.

Here’s how Affiliate Annual Renewal Fees will be implemented: For Affiliates that enrolled in 2008, and to help get the Affiliate renewal program on track, here’s how it will be implemented:

• Affiliates who enrolled on or before August 31, 2008, will be charged the reduced Annual Renewal fee of $49 in January 2009, and then each year in January thereafter.
• Affiliates who enrolled September 1, 2008 or later, but before January 2009, will be charged the reduced Annual Renewal fee of $49 in July of 2009, and then each July thereafter.
• Beginning in 2009 and thereafter, all NEW Affiliates that enroll between January 1 and June 30th of each year will be charged their Annual Renewal Fee of $49 in January of the year following their enrollment.
  
• Beginning in 2009 and thereafter, all NEW Affiliates that enroll between July 1 and December 31 of each year will be charged their Annual Renewal Fee of $49 in July of the year following their enrollment.

All Affiliates, at the applicable time (January 2009 or July 2009 and thereafter) will be charged the Annual Renewal Fee. If, as an Affiliate, you did not intend to renew and desire to cancel your Affiliate-ship, you must email Customer Service at renewals@mygenewize.com within 30 days to cancel and receive a full refund of your renewal fee.

Clarification of the “Enroll (or Keep Four) and Pay no More” Referral Program.

Don’t worry, there are no changes to this great program, however we are noticing that we may have not have done an adequate job of explaining it and that some Affiliates either don’t understand the program or don’t know how to explain it in a way that new Affiliates can easily understand.

INITIAL COMPENSATION

We want to encourage and suggest ALL Affiliates describe this as the “Keep Four and Pay no More” program going forward.

Remember: Each time you enroll a NEW Affiliate or Customer you earn a Direct Commission of $40-100 on each enrollment. That is your initial compensation not a discount on your product. We can’t give you both in the same month!

The Free/Discounted Product program is designed to apply your credit ONLY AFTER your Customer or Affiliate’s 2nd order has been successfully charged and completed.

REOCCURRING COMPENSATION

You’re reoccurring compensation comes in the form of a discount on your LifeMap Product, the month AFTER your personally enrolled Affliates/Customes order(s) are successfully charged and paid for. Not in the same month. Very simply, our computer program needs to “look back” at the transactions in order to provide an accurate accounting and apply the appropriate discounts.

The first One to Four Affiliates (or Customers) you enroll entitles you to a discount on your LifeMap product (10%, 25%, 50, 100% respectively). An example is if you enrolled 4 NEW customers on December 1 of 2008 and they received their First Orders on January 1 of 2009 and they are on Autoship to receive their 2nd shipment on February 1st 2009, your discount or FREE product credit would be applied in March. Don’t forget that you will also be charged for shipping and handling (currently $9.75) IMPORTANT: If you don’t have a valid credit card on file to cover shipping, you will not receive your discount or free product credit. If, for example, only 3 of your Affiliate or Customer credit cards successfully processed, you would receive a 50% discount.

After enrollment Number 4, you will earn a Direct Commission of $15.00 for each Customer/Affiliate. For example, if you enrolled 10 Affiliates four of them (providing their transaction process successfully) would entitle you to FREE product and the next six would earn you $90.00 in Direct Commissions (6 X $15.00).

Hopefully this explanation helps you better understand (and explain) the program. Please refer to the Compensation Plan and carefully review the Affiliate Policies & Procedures, which are available in your Affiliate Back Office for more details.

I’m going to shoot a video about this, but it just looks too cold and foggy outside right now!

Iv’e always made New Year goals, but I don’t wait until New Years Day to start them. I think that is simply a lame excuse. Start them the day you make them – and be REAL about it!

I’ve also always heard to write down your goals, and never really took that advice to practice. “Yeah, yeah”, was my attitude. Today I wrote down my goals in a new notebook and made them SPECIFIC.

I started with a big “by-end-of-year” goal and worked that into actual numbers and specific monthly goals. I wrote down specifically HOW I will achieve those goals.

I started with a monthly dollar amount by the end of the year, then turned that into a #leads/day by end of year and worked backwards to this month.

So, for example, to have 100 new leads per day coming in by in Dec 2009, how many leads do I need to be generating per day by end-Jan 2009, and by end-Feb 2009, etc…

It becomes much more “real” when you attach numbers to monthly and weekly goals, rather than just saying, “I’m going to be generating 100 leads per day by end-of-year”.

So my New Year’s wish and advice for all of you…WRITE DOWN your SPECIFIC goals! Read and visualize them every day.

Happy, Healthy and Prosperous 2009 to you all!!

Listen to one of our Genewize leaders, Tom Wood. It’s inspirational and well worth it!

I had virtually NO success with offline strategies. I immediatley blamed the methods, rather than looking deeper and learning from the leaders in my group who WERE successful.  But nevertheless, I turned to the internet.

Funny thing is, that now that I have seen success with online marketing and in particular with Attraction Marketing, I am much more comfortable and confident in approaching people offline! Especially when I am talking to people who are like-minded… also entrepreneurs and interested in home business.

It makes no sense convincing Aunt Mary that she NEEDS to launch a home-based business when Aunt Sally has nothing further from her mind!

The deal is…  whether offline OR online, we need to personally develop ourselves into a leader, a mentor, and into a person with the confidence and skills that make us “attractive” to business partners.

On our Zero Limits Gene Team, we teach BOTH online and offline techniques.

Internet marketing has a steep learning curve. It takes dedication, persistance and a passion for learning. Not everyone is cut out for or desires this approach. Offline marekting can be much faster and more efective for some indidivuals. As long as you get the proper support and mentorship, you CAN be successful in the offline world.

So just to set the stage accurately… we do BOTH, and we believe and train in both. It’s up to you which your prefer! The beauty is… that EITHER or BOTH is available to you on our Zero Limits Gene Team. In our training forum, you can interact with individuals in both arenas.

To Your Success,

Donna Abreu
