If You Ignore This, You’ll Regret It

by Tom Lunneborg on September 2, 2010

Hi 21TENers!

Unless you’ve been under a rock, you’ve heard the fans of Life Shotz beating the vitamin D drum. Naturally we’re promoting our product and its awesome dose of vitamin D, but the more important message we are promoting is health. We are not alone. The science and health industry is championing the power of vitamin D.

Vitamin D continues to make headlines. Almost every week for the last two years I have received new articles, studies, and discoveries about the benefits of vitamin D, and the frequency of these articles seems to be picking up. Science is narrowing their focus. The importance of vitamin D is indisputable.

Recently CBS News reported on a study conducted by a team of English and Canadian scientists. The study discovered a detailed map of the molecular interactions between vitamin D and certain genes. This map shows extensive connections between vitamin D and genes associated with cancer and autoimmune disease.

“Genes involved in autoimmune disease and cancer were regulated by vitamin D,” the study’s author, Dr. Sreeram Ramagopalan of Oxford University, told WebMD.

Just today, Dr. Andrew Weil’s newsletter was on vitamin D and your immune system. His letter stressed the importance of supplementing with vitamin D daily, especially since our immune system cannot function efficiently without adequate vitamin D. If our defense system isn’t firing on all cylinders, we are at an increased risk for infection and sickness. Dr. Weil also addressed the fact that low levels of vitamin D have been associated with a higher than normal risk of chronic disease.

The bittersweet news for all Life Shotz devotees is that an estimated 70% of the U.S. population is deficient in vitamin D. The bitter part is knowing how poor the average diet is. The sweet part is knowing we have the answer. We have the perfect tool to naturally help people have the most extraordinary health.

Dr. Ramagopalan of Oxford University recommends 2,000 I.U. of vitamin D per day. That just so happens to be the exact amount we use in each serving of Life Shotz. We did our homework when we created Life Shotz. Now you can reap the benefits and share health with everyone. You don’t have to be able to tell a whopper story about how zowiewowiemumbojumbo fruit was discovered on a distant land. You simply can share stories and articles or turn on your evening news to hear about the power of vitamin D. Science just so happens to be on our side.

To your health,

Tom

Dr. Todd Advances

by Janine Avila on September 1, 2010

Hey Everybody!

“Guru,” “expert” and “seriously smart dude” are just a few of the ways to describe Dr. Todd Schlapfer. This week we’re happy to announce that “lightning-fast business builder” is another. Dr. Todd has advanced!

The reward for advancement is pretty awesome. Not only does it mean that Dr. Todd’s business and benefits are growing, but it also means that Dr. Todd will be joining 21TEN’s leaders and executives on the most luxurious Caribbean cruise the sea has to offer.

“It will just be a blast and a thrill to hang out with the people who are involved in 21TEN. Everyone is a family, and that will be just fabulous. It will be a celebration.”

Earning his cruise has been as much about integrity as about drive, according to Dr. Todd.

“I’m successful in my medical practice not because I have a business plan but because I stick to what I believe. That’s true with Life Shotz, too, and that’s convincing to people. I couldn’t be doing this if I couldn’t believe in it. It fits my life perfectly. I feel comfortable with the innovation, the company and the products.”

Dr. Todd is also quick to credit the sources of his success. It starts with his “remarkable partner and beautiful bride,” and it stretches to the Life Shotz team and their shared vision.

While many people love particular Life Shotz tools, it’s their adaptability that impresses Dr. Todd: “I’m selective and let the opportunity discussion arise from an already sincere conversation. Because there are a variety of tools for a variety of people, I can customize the conversation. It makes conversation easy.”

Richard Brooke, 21TEN CEO, has nothing but praise for Dr. Todd.

“Dr. Todd and Kate Schlapfer have been an integral part of the creation of 21TEN and Life Shotz. Dr. Todd is a world-renowned naturopath, and we are honored to have him on our team and very excited to see the growth he has created locally with his own sales group. Congratulations from all of us here at the home office.”

All this success helps Dr. Todd move one step closer toward his goal: sharing the wealth through philanthropy.

Congrats, Dr. Todd!

Jordan Schneider Advances!

by Janine Avila on August 30, 2010

Hey Everybody!

It’s a perfect end to August for Jordan Schneider. She’s advanced and will be joining 21TEN leaders aboard the Celebrity Solstice for our November cruise!

“I’m very excited about the cruise and the opportunity to spend so much time with leaders in the company—both in the field and the corporate level. That will be priceless.”

While the Caribbean’s most luxurious cruise may have been motivation, it takes dedication to achieve success as quickly as Jordan has. She took all the right steps: attending events, hosting calls, and doing all the daily actions that leads to sales, income, and advancement.

“I just made 21TEN and Life Shotz a part of my everyday life. I lived it and breathed it and just worked it into my schedule. Nothing special—just the stuff that 21TEN teaches everyone to do.”

Like every Distributor and leader, Jordan has her own favorite tools:

• The new Life Shotz brochure
• Samples coupled with sampling cards
• The 21TEN Opportunity Presentation

And from her success, it’s clear she’s making the most of all the resources available.

“As Jordan’s sponsor (and parents),” say Jimmy and Kathy Schneider, “words can’t express how proud we are of her accomplishments with 21TEN since February!”

“On a daily basis, she consistently does the things she knows will continue to move her toward the goals she’s set: using the product, sharing the product, and turning those exposures into presentations.”

“21TEN has become a part of Jordan’s life. She’s a real example of what lifestyling the business looks like. We are so excited she will be cruising with us in November, and we know this is only the beginning of a career that will provide her an incredible life!”

Congratulations, Jordan, from all of us at Team 21TEN! Enjoy the cruise!

Ignite Your Business

by Barry Smith on August 27, 2010

Hey Team Life Shotz!

The best thing you can do to ignite your business is to attend the Ignition Event in Ft. Lauderdale. The best thing you can do to promote growth in your organization is to have as many people in your downline at this event.

At this national conference we are going to deliver more tools, training, and recognition than you can believe. You will hear from the top distributors about what they are doing to grow their businesses. You will hear from top trainers in the industry and experience top-notch training on all your new tools, and these tools will help you accelerate your business. We are going to roll out a new recognition program that is going to dazzle, impress and celebrate you!

Something magical happens when you attend national conferences. You walk away with knowledge and inspiration that cannot be gained anywhere except in this setting. I can tell you that with all my experience in this industry, I have never known of any successful leader who did not attend every national conference and have many of his or her organization there. Your organization will come out of this meeting energized, inspired, motivated, and full of new ideas to grow their businesses.

This is a MUST for anyone who is totally committed to making it big in 21TEN. If you have not signed up for the event then you need to do so now. Call your downline and explain to them the importance of going to the conference, and get them to come with you. You need to act soon. The dates are November 4-6, which is only 69 days away, and you only have three more weeks to save big on registration.

For more information on the details of the event and to register, navigate to the events section of the 21TEN website.

Take Care!

Life Shotz Brochure

by Melissa Gulbranson on August 24, 2010

Hey 21TENers,

Just three weeks ago we brought you the new, high-end, four-color Life Shotz brochure. We were excited when we announced it—it’s low cost is unbeatable, yet it manages to combine “cool” with “professional”—but the response we received has been unbelievable.

The brochures have been rocketing off the shelves, and people have been ordering en masse. More importantly, people are having phenomenal success with this new tool.

Perhaps it is because they look amazing, or the versatility is the draw: you can share these with new prospects, include one with every sample or use them to promote Life Shotz at events. The potential is unlimited.

For all these reasons and more, the brochure is making a big impact on businesses, and we’re hearing about it. Here’s what they are saying:

“I spent about an hour yesterday passing out the new tri-fold brochures at our local mall. I told people that I’d been asked to get 100 of these into the marketplace to get some feedback on the actual brochure itself. If I gave one to them, would they take some time later to look it over?

People said “yes,” almost exclusively, then I asked if it would be ok for me to call them the next day to get their impression of the brochure itself. I wanted to be sure that when people looked it over they understood what the brochure was talking about.

Of 30 I passed out, I got appointments and phone numbers for 25. Everyone I’ve called has said they liked the flyer, so we talked about the information, was it understandable, was the brochure inviting, did they want to look at it and read it, of course they did, etc. Then, if they didn’t volunteer, I asked them if this was a product they thought they might have an interest in learning more about. The end result is that I’m sending about 10 samples (with lots more calls to make still).

You just can’t beat that kind of activity.”- Tracey Gilmore

“It’s a very, very informative brochure. People are impressed when I share it with them, and they’re very portable so I can take them with me everywhere. I carry them with my samples and the articles I use to promote my business.”- Dee Ennis

“The new brochure is great! They’re very professional and easy to use. They’re perfect to send in envelopes, and they definitely help my business. I can display them in offices really easily. I also know a lot of people who are hard to reach by email, and this is the best way to share the Life Shotz message.” -Darlene Johnson

Be sure to tell us your brochure success stories!

Cheers,

Melissa
