As Long as People Have Goals, We Have Work to Do

Melaleuca products or the financial opportunity – or both! And it is all because of people helping people, working together and sharing with others. No person, no matter how successful, has accomplished anything alone. Everyone owes their success to countless others. No one can legitimately say, “Look what I did by myself.” But everyone can be proud of what everyone working together is accomplishing. Without question, some have had a much greater impact than others, and for that they should, and do, receive a higher reward. We have structured our Compensation Plan to give the greatest benefit to those who have helped others the most. It’s a very fun and rewarding concept. Those who help others reach their goals also reach their own goals, but only by helping others reach theirs. All Melaleuca people are on a journey together – each individual contributing in his or her own way. Most are loyal customers who buy superior Melaleuca products month after month and provide the foundation for countless home- based businesses. Others contribute

by enrolling new customers now and then. And others are much more serious business builders who are up and at it day after day, contacting, presenting, and assisting. Everyone’s contribution is important. Everyone plays an important role and everyone reaps a reward in proportion to their contribution. If we take our mission of helping others reach their goals seriously, no matter how successful we are as individuals, we must remember that none of us have accomplished anything by ourselves. We owe our success to countless numbers of others. When we reach our own goals, to lie back and relax in our success would be not only inappropriate but entirely contrary to our stated mission. Our mission is to help others reach their goals. As long as there are folks who have not yet met their goals, we have work to do! When our own goals are met or are even surpassed, we cannot forget that most of our success is because of the contribution of others. It is my hope that all leaders in Melaleuca – no matter how successful – will never abandon those in their

organizations who have not yet reached their goals. The more successful we are, the more we owe it to others to reach out and help people make appointments, to help them make their presentations, and to help them advance to the next status. I feel thrilled and privileged to be a part of Melaleuca! I appreciate every member of the Melaleuca family who has trusted us with their time and loyalty. I am serious about our mission of enhancing lives. I call on all leaders throughout Melaleuca – especially those with large incomes – to not forget those who create our success every day. We must continue to invest our time in helping them. Only after every last person has accomplished everything he or she originally set out to do, is our mission complete.

A MESSAGE FROM CEO FRANK VANDERSLOOT

A person working alone is not all that powerful, just like a drop of water falling from the sky will have very little impact when it hits the earth. But combine that single drop of water with millions of others that are moving in the same direction and you have the force of a tidal wave that wipes out everything in its path. As I take a step back to look at what has happened with Melaleuca over the past 33 years, I am amazed at the awe-

common goals, the result is much more than just impressive – it is awesome! When we started Melaleuca, we set out with a clear mission: To enhance the lives of those we touch by helping people reach their goals. Our focus has never strayed from that mission. Over the years, millions have joined us. Together, these individuals have created a powerful entity that not only offers life- changing and lifesaving products, but is

“The more successful we are, the more we owe it to others to reach out and help people make appointments, to help them make their presentations, and to help them advance to the next status.”

Sincerely,

also making a tremendous difference in tens of thousands of lives from a financial standpoint. The stories that we hear every day are delightful… hundreds of stories of lives that have been changed because of

some force that is created when people work together toward common goals. Synergy and unity are very important, powerful concepts. Focus is also important: when everyone moves in one direction, working together to reach
