Platinum Pacesetter- A SIX WEEK Quest


Greetings New Team Member!
Please review the PLATINUM PACESETTER materials & video below. Let me know if you have any questions.



You have six weeks from your date of enrollment (as an ACTIVE Associate) to enroll your first 4 Associates in order to achieve Platinum Pacesetter. USANA is ultimately about generating sales (point) volume versus "signing up people to become associates."

To put it simply, you shouldn't care whether someone chooses to be a preferred customer (& just order product) or decides that promoting the USANA vision (as an Associate) is for them.

BOTH opportunities generate equivalent sales volume!

The methodology is very similar to any type of sales opportunity where one would have a quota to achieve EXCEPT for the fact that with USANA, YOU SET YOUR OWN GOALS!

Having a base of 4 strong Associates simply ensures that you are giving yourself the best opportunity produce the type of sales volume necessary to maximize your earnings potential.
 
Sincerely,
Al

Former Miami University Baseball Player Joins The Team Domin8 Advisory Panel


"As a father of two I want to live as long as possible to watch my kids grow up, attend college, and be a grandfather one day. In order to do this I feel that it's important that I educate myself and others on the importance of our everyday health " states Paul Frietch.

Their are so many avenues that we can take, but IT IS PROVEN that USANA is the best route to take. I've been waiting for an opportunity like USANA to share my health and well being with others, so that they to can take the necessary steps in living a healthier life.

Being a member of the Miami University Baseball Team I felt that I had an edge over the rest of the non student athlete's. I was taught daily the proper nutrition and exercise habits that it took to become a healthier person.

Being removed from collegiate sports for five years now I know how hard it is to stick to the right nutritional and exercise habits.
                              


Frietch played First Base for The Miami University Redhawks

As a graphic designer it's vitally important that I find time throughout my day to stay healthy, and give my body what it needs nutritionally. Through my experience as a student athlete at Miami University I feel that I can help educate people on the USANA way.

Essentially it all comes down to YOU choosing the type of life you want to live. I choose USANA.

I look forward to becoming an intricate part in Team Domin8 success, and the relationships that come along the way.

Former Ohio State University Soccer Player Joins Team Domin8 Advisory Panel


As one of the newest members to team Domin8 and the USANA family I am extremely excited to share in our numerous visions and goals.

This opportunity is one that I have dreamed of for many years and I am elated to be sharing my passion for health, nutrition, exercise, and overall wellbeing with others.

I am eager to finally utilize the lessons and skills that I learned while obtaining my Bachelor of Science in Nutrition at the Ohio State University.




As a former member of the Ohio State University Women’s Soccer team the correlation between proper nutrition and our athletic performance was discussed daily. But, as I have made the transition into the real world I have realized it plays an even more valuable role in everyday life.



I am enthusiastic to share this information with people from all walks of life and USANA is the perfect vehicle through which I can do this.


Kate Linehan (#22) played forward at The Ohio State University.

Currently, I am in graduate school to become a Physician Assistant and my classes indicate that nutrition is assuming an essential role in healthcare as we evolve our system toward preventive care.

Nutrition is the future of healthcare and I am tremendously excited for what the future of team Domin8 and USANA holds.

The USANA Difference (MENTORS like Jerry Cervantes)

A key benefit to becoming affiliated with USANA is the team environment that exists within the company. As an individual that has participated in organized sports all his life, successfully led corporate training and managed executive teams, I can truly speak to the value as well as importance of TEAMWORK!

I was initially introduced to USANA by The Cervantes Family. Jerry Cervantes is now a personal USANA mentor and friend of mind. In addition he sits on the Team Domin8 Advisory Panel and oversees all endevours that Team Domin8 considers participating in.

Mr. Jerry Cervantes has led a storied life. He was diagnosed with Large B-Cell Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma Cancer (NHL) in October 2004. This disease is a cancer of the lymphatic system, which is part of the immune system, whose primary function is to ward off disease and infection. Non-Hodgkins lymphoma causes cells in the lymphatic system to abnormally reproduce, eventually leading to tumor growth. In addition, these cancerous cells can also spread to other organs. About 40 -50% of people with this type of lymphoma can be cured with therapy.

Before USANA
(Jerry with Doctor Joshua Bletzinger, October 2004)

Needless to say, the success rate is not great and when Mr. Cervantes was diagnosed he was classified as having Stage IV Aggressive NHL disease (the worst of all levels). His doctor could do nothing more for him other than recommend immediate high-dose chemotherapy if he was to have a chance at living.

Now, let's take a step backwards. Three months prior to his diagnosis Jerry had already noticed that his health was quickly deteriorating. He could no longer work or coach his young basketball team, but figured it was nothing serious. Concerned friends noticed his condition and prescribed vitamins, something which many of us would most likely disregard. However, Mr. Cervantes was reassured that these vitamins were unique and would help rebuild his health. After a few months, the diagnosis came about and his life had now changed in a matter of seconds. There was no turning back, the damage had been done, but his commitment to the Usana supplements never faltered.

Post Stem Cell Transplant

(Jerry with wife, July 2005)

His chemotherapy sessions began in November 2004 and ended in March 2005. He was advised of all the negative effects that he would face while on therapy, but surprisingly he experienced the utter opposite. Minimal hair loss, no vomiting, increased appetite, and higher levels of energy, were just a few of the positive effects he experienced while taking Usana.

His journey didn't end there. After an arduous experience he now faced a stem cell transplantation in May 2005. This would be one of his most difficult moments and would require him to be hospitalized for a minimum of 25 days. Miraculously, Jerry was able to undergo a stem cell transplantation and be out of the hospital in a record-breaking 17 days! Doctors were stunned with his recovery as the average patient will take a minimum of 25-30 days to recover from such an incident.

Furthermore, Jerry blew away doctors with his ability to reproduce stem cells. It takes the average human 3-5 days to build a minimum amount of 5 million stem cells, required for the transplant. In Jerry's case it took him only 8 hours to collect 6 million, a result which doctors today cannot explain. It was evident that Jerry was not alone in his mission to survive as Usana was with him every step of the way strengthening him and supporting him on his road to recovery. At the end of May Jerry was cleared by doctors as no longer having cancer. It is clear that the stem cell transplantation was successful. Cellular repair through the use of Usana products made a pivotal impact on his recovery. While Usana is not a cure for cancer it definitely played a key role in his recovery into full remission.

After USANA
(Jerry with Doctor Joshua Bletzinger, March 2006)

This testament isn't chance or good fortune, but has been brought about by Usana's proven capability to deliver cellular repair, critical for Jerry and others like him. As a result, we also support the company and its product line in an effort to educate all people to the benefits of supplements and not just any supplement, but Usana Health Sciences, a pharmaceutical grade supplement. We don't push supplements, what we encourage is a lifestyle change. By educating one another we can improve our chances of living longer, healthier, and fuller lives.

Jerry has now been in remission since March 2005 and attributes his full recovery to his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ through whom all things can be accomplished.

The USANA Difference (Opportunity)

It's only natural and expected to approach any new opportunity with hint of skepticism, but once things check out you must then ask yourself, "what am I waiting for? What do I really have to lose?"

I can promise you thatg with USANA, the risk to benefit ratio is heavily tilted in your favor. "How can I be so sure?" you might ask. God brings people IN and OUT of your life for a reason. In 2009 he happened to introduce me to several families of USANA affiliates that made me realize that the "potential" success I had read about in the company information could in fact be real success for anyone willing to put forth the necessary work.

One of these individuals had a background very similiar to mine. He was a top executive at a large Chicago-based firm. He spent at least three weeks out of every month on the road. The frequent travel and "always on" work environment was beginning to have a negative impact on his quality of life. It was time for a change...

This individual was introduced to USANA and after coming to his own conclusion that the company, products and business opportunity were unlike anything he had ever seen before, he too left the senior management corporate world to leverage his corporate experience to the full benefit of his family.

Within a relatively short period of time he was not only able to replace his corporate salary, but he was rewarded with something that was much, much, much more valuable- additional TIME to spend with his family and as a result, an imporoved quality of life! This individual's name is Lloyd Singer and he is featured in the video clip below.



Because I can see examples of success right in front of my eyes (in the form of the success achieved by my USANA mentors), I am ready to run faster, harder and stronger with and for anyone who is up for the exciting journey ahead!

If you keep in mind that the USANA opportunity is a vehicle that can be utilized to "drive" you towards the lifestyle that you would choose to live were money to be no object, then you too will get excited because you will realize that "objects (your dreams) are closer than they appear."

Hear from REAL USANA Associates (including Physicians, Professional Athletes and USANA founder Dr. Myron Wentz) about what sets the USANA opportunity apart from all the rest. Whether its time freedom, better health, or a fabulous opportunity you are searching for, you'll see- and want to be a part of- the USANA difference.

"Scientists' understanding of the benefits of vitamins has rapidly advanced, and it now appears that people who get enough vitamins may be able to prevent such common chronic illnesses as cancer, heart disease and osteoporosis,"


according to Drs. Robert Fletcher and Kathleen Fairfield of Harvard University, who wrote the new guidelines.
At the least, the American Medical Association recommends that everyone be on a daily multivitamin along with fish oil.

• USANA's version of these products are known as "The Essentials" as well as "BiOMEGA."
• Because your sister has young children, I would recommend reviewing USANA's children's vitamin USANIMALS (Ages 1 - 12) or BODYROX (Teenagers).


How Does USANA's compensation plan compare to other companies utilizing the direct selling model?


The honest answer is that there is no comparison! There is not another company that is in the same league as USANA with regard to product or compensation as you will begin to understand by reviewing the information below:

What is your Dream? Happy Holidays TEAM DOMIN8!

Merry Christmas to all!


What’s your Dream?




An enlightening experience with USANA is watching the light come on upstairs once an individual “gets it.” After sitting through just one presentation its easy to understand what all the excitement is about concerning USANA. It isn't about Al Washington or for that matter even yourself…It is about those that are most important to you & the time that quality of life that you desire to share with those individuals.

Friends, I hope you realize that I would never ask any of you to be a part of something that I did not thing we couldn’t be UBER successful at! During this time of the year I think it’s great to sit back and reflect on where your journey has taken you to this point in life and where you would still like to go… I introduced each of you to USANA because I see the company as a VEHICLE that when driven correctly, can help us accomplish our dreams and empower each of us to live the type of family-oriented lives that we desire to have.

There is SO MUCH about USANA as a company that you have yet to uncover... USANA IS unlike any other opportunity that you have been introduced to before! This I am sure of… In my “downtime” after parting ways with Corporate America, I have established a professional business plan for USANA that will help ignite our team to astronomical successes if everyone makes it a point to stay dedicated to the team.

I ask that you watch these video clips in their entirety & share them with family friends & acquaintances. They only thing I want for Christmas this year is for each of you to see USANA through for AT LEAST ONE year. It is during this period of time that you will see the tremendous opportunity that I have presented to you come to life. You will understand that USANA is not at all about “taking time way from you,” but 100% about giving you the time needed to accomplish those things in life that you truly would want to do if money were no object.

I must admit that I to had one eye wide open when I learned about USANA however after doing my research I quickly got excited because I knew that my 10 years in the pharmaceutical realm had taught me a game plan that I could not only use to the benefit of myself but also to friends & family that were willing to come along for the journey! Then I was fortunate enough to be introduced to mentors in the USANA family made tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of dollars with the company doing the EXACT same thing that I had done with the Schering Ploughs, Eli Lilly & Abbott Laboratories of the world! It was at that point that I decided that this journey that we are on was a journey for life!

I love USANA because all of the resources & data exists to be able to overcome any objection. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand that USANA is an opportunity that “just makes sense” from both a product as well as potential business opportunity. When approached like a business even average people can succeed and I know that NO ONE reading this e-mail is average! I caution you to not pigeon-hole this opportunity because you have never heard of the company before or because the business model is slightly different than others that you have been exposed to. BOTH of these traits are benefits that will ultimately allow you to hit a homerun if you stay the course in 2010.

Merry Christmas to all!

This is WHY we do it:
Changing Lives…with the Ryans

LEAD THE WAY 2015: "The Game of Life"

Welcome all!


My name is AL Washington. I am utilizing this blog, LEADTHEWAY2015, as a vehicle to document my victories, trials & tribulations on the path to achieving life's most important gifts of TRUE health & TRUE wealth. 


I chose the title "LEADTHEWAY" because it signifies who I am & what I believe in at heart, a LEADER! I believe that with regard to anything you choose to associate yourself with, if you do so with all your energy, you will be successfull beyond your wildest dreams! 


2015 signifies the year that I would like to look back on this initial blog post & evaluate the journey for all the successes as well as opportunities that I have experienced.


As a ten year veteran of the the pharma/biotech industry, I view myself as one of the luck ones... I was lucky enough to have achieved a 6-figure income and a great deal of corporate success by my mid-twenties but smart enough to stay true to myself, my upbringing and what I knew was truly most important in life to ensure that I remained my own captain of "this ship we call life."



Unlike many others, I did not allow myself to be overcome by all the perceived "nicities" that Corporate America would like you to believe define success & happiness. The company car, expense account, hotel points and corporate give-aways are great when you are the point-gaurd controlling the tempo of the game, but what happens 20 years from now when the game has advanced to the 3rd quarter & your company decides to draft the next "Al Washington" when YOU have yet to receive the lion's share of your contract???


This blog is dedicated to any and all people who desire to have the finer things in life WITHOUT having to ultimately sacrifice quality of life in return! I learned two important lessons at an early age; 1) without doing all you can to proactively maintain TRUE health, there is no such thing as "living life to the fullest" & 2) without pursuing TRUE wealth, we are all "pawns" in another person's master plan for life as opposed to being ruler of our own plan!


I welcome you to explore and learn as much information as possible on my blog! If you were invited here by someone other than myself, THANK THAT PERSON because they thought enough of you to assist you in making a difference for the better in your own life. I challenge you to come along for the ride, but beware...This journey IS NOT for the weak at heart!

L-E-A-D-T-H-E-W-A-Y!!!
