 Last year the Board was able to assist in the creation of the
largest compensation increase in the history of this business, and
we now have the best compensation plan in this industry. Your 2007
Board worked closely with Quixtar as they introduced Simply
Nutrilite™ and Artistry® essentials. We established LOS and LOA conference
calls to keep the leadership informed on a variety of issues. Last,
but certainly not least, your Board began the process of
transformation with Quixtar and strives to keep the Field advised of
where it stands at all times. None of this would have been possible
without the relationship between the Field, the Corporation, and the
Founding Families.
As we look to 2008:
-
Your Board is working with Quixtar to establish a structured
communication protocol with the Field to improve understanding
on various issues during transformation.
-
We will work with the Corporation to help insure that
accreditation is a win/win for everyone.
-
Your Board is actively engaged with Quixtar to help all IBOs
during their crucial first 90 to 120 days in this business.
-
Even though the new QBI is only a few months old, we are already
examining this program with Quixtar to see if it can be
improved. Our goal is that no IBO who is willing to work or is
performing will be left behind.
-
We will continue to provide input on: international businesses;
compensation; awards and recognition; products to support your
businesses; issues such as back orders; and, most importantly,
making the relationship between the company’s owners, North
American team, and the Field the best it has ever been.
A quick reminder; the IBOAI Board and staff work for all IBOs in the
Field. We will do our very best to make sure you hear from us
regularly. We will keep the lines of communication open with the
various LOS and LOA leaders. The fantastic IBOAI staff is always
available to assist in any way they can.
When Quixtar announced the upcoming name change in June 2007, they
titled the announcement: Brand New Day. I believe it
accurately describes where we are going. This transformed new
business model is not “your Daddy’s Oldsmobile.” We are not going
back to Amway. We are moving forward to “Amway Global,” a business
model that will make the world sit up and take notice. Together we
will transform this business, partner with the Corporation with even
greater enthusiasm, and establish a template for decades to come!
Working together, the best is yet to come,
Bill Hawkins
2008 Chairman
IBOAI Board of Directors
