Global Founders Council members
meet in Monte Carlo












t was a great venue for an extremely important business event. The main purpose was to communicate our global marketing strategies to members. We heard inspiring words from Doug, Steve and others, but perhaps the highlight of the event was the stirring speech delivered by co-founder Rich DeVos. Our Chief of Marketing Officer, Bill Payne told us about some truly exciting innovations that are in the works - including new products and new opportunities - all to allow us to become more consumer focused.

 
Among the new marketing strategies we will be making our E.FUNKHOUSER™ brand easier to sell, with better product selection, more advertising, plus blogs, podcasts, You Tube and more.

We'll be re-positioning, re-energising and re-launching our home care product line, this time with a unified 'green' theme. And we're going to ramp up our sports marketing efforts through Team NUTRILITE™ to help create more awareness and more customer loyalty.

Outside of business there was plenty of pleasure, including the excitement and spectacle of the Grand Prix race itself, plus all the pomp and glamour that comes with it. And the Fairmont Monte Carlo afforded us a terrific view from our hospitality suites. Dinners were world-class and wide-ranging and there was golf, boating, beach strolling, casinos and just plain exploring.
 
We hope you had a great time in Monte Carlo, renewed old acquaintances and made some new friends. And, finally, we hope you came away knowing that we're transforming our company into a new and better company - a consumer focused company - with products consumers want to buy and you want to sell.
