Congratulations to Erik and Michelle Cloud from Boise, Idaho, on achieving the rank of Blue Diamond Executive. Here's what they had to say on reaching this impressive milestone...

"We truly believe God put us in MonaVie. In 2007, we were preparing to move to Boise, Idaho.  I was going through a box of old notepads and noticed that I had written the words 'Brig Hart/Attitude' on one page. Several years prior, I had listened to a cassette tape about Brig Hart's direct selling success and wrote down some notes. I didn't think anything more of it.

"A friend called me out of the blue the very next day. The first words out of his mouth were, 'I just met with this guy named Brig Hart. Have you heard of him?' The hair on the back of my neck stood up. Whatever Brig was doing, I was also going to do!

"When we moved to Boise, we only knew five people. I had some experience in direct selling, but I'd never built a business through home meetings. Building a list of local names was a challenge, but we did exactly what Brig told us to do. We started with the five people we knew and eventually got to know more people. One person who is willing to open two or more doors to good people will turn into a leg that's 20 deep. Just help one get one all the way to the bottom of the leg. That's what we did.

"The leadership at MonaVie sets us apart in this industry. We have the right people running the show, both on the corporate level and in the field. The MORE Project also sets us apart—in direct selling and in the business world in general. Michelle has a master's degree in Latin American Economic Studies and has witnessed firsthand the awful conditions in which people in Third World countries live. Michelle needed to fall in love with the MORE Project in order to fall in love with MonaVie.

"There are so many people hurting physically, financially, emotionally, and spiritually. Don't be selfish by playing small and keeping this opportunity to yourself. This opportunity is what I like to call 'guilt-free wealth' because it only comes in direct proportion to the good we do and the people we help along the way. We love our incredible team, and we won't stop until they achieve their goals and dreams."

Congratulations to Darren and Judy Deschamps from Maple Ridge, British Columbia, Canada, on achieving the rank of Blue Diamond Executive. Here's what they had to say on reaching this impressive milestone...

"When we first enrolled in MonaVie, we were impressed by what the product did for our health. Having left a previous career feeling completely burned out, I had no idea what this amazing opportunity would do for me and my family. We signed up thinking we had found a great juice; we realized that we had found something to challenge us, stretch us, and help us grow.

"We have learned so much from all the amazing leaders, including Dallin Larsen, Brig and Lita Hart, and Ronn and Jan Prpich. Ronn and Jan showed us that it could be done; Brig and Lita showed us how it could be done. They helped us feel empowered to share this gift, and that's what has kept us moving forward. We feel like we were set up to win from the beginning.

"We have been blessed with an amazing team that has led us to a whole new way of living. The best part is that we get to share this with others and watch their lives improve. We are so humbled and grateful to have happened upon this amazing life-changing opportunity. Decide that you want it too. Plug in to your active upline's proven system, and then reach out to people. Most importantly, never give up!"

MonaVie Founder and President Dallin Larsen recently sat down with Marianne Cooper for an insightful discussion regarding life, values, and MonaVie.

MonaVie was recently featured by Utah Pulse, a premiere business website in the Rocky Mountain region, in a Pulse Monitor video interview.

Devin Thorpe, chief financial officer at MonaVie, shared key insights regarding the current state of the economy. He also discussed how MonaVie continues to grow both in the United States and internationally under these conditions.

According to Thorpe, MonaVie was an instant success when it first opened its doors in 2005, and "growth from there has continued in a dramatic fashion."

"[Direct selling] is an enabling and ennobling channel of distribution for those who get involved," says Thorpe. As the recession matures, Thorpe says MonaVie will be a draw for many people who are looking for ways to increase their supplemental income.
