ViSalus had a very strong start to the seasonally-important first quarter for weight management and healthy lifestyle companies, stated Robert B. Goergen, Blyth's Chairman of the Board and CEO. Programs such as the Body by Vi 90-Day Challenge and Rising Star that were so effective leading into and throughout 2011, were bridged successfully into 2012.

In Q1 we put a lot of focus into our social and mobile strategy, said Blake Mallen, Co-Founder and Chief Marketing Officer. People love sharing their Challenge results, and the simpler we can make it for them to do so, the more people they can share them with.

  2. I have been involved with ViSalus for a year now, I’m MS. And I was Excited then and I am even More excited NOW! This company TRULY Stands ON and Behind what They Believe is Right! How can you ask a company to do anymore than that. They saved me from a life of Average and Ordinary which is my biggest fear. Being Average and Ordinary, tip toeing to my Grave ever so quietly without anyone knowing who or What I stood for and Believed in! Love my extended family ViSalus

  3. With al the bad news out there (Number of people looking for work, setting up LinkedIn profiles continued to grow at a rapid pace!
    People Give Up On Looking For Work. Why Small Business Owners Are Hesitant To Hire. Baby Boomers’ Money Troubles: They’re Worse Than We Thought.), why not Direct Network Marketing?

    From another very satisfied customer:

    “Wow – amazing opportunity!! MLM may have a bad rap in some circles but I am SOLD. Great way to help people live healthier, cheaper, better AND make a good living, too. Been doing the shake for 4 months and look forward to it every day, Am approaching my ideal weight for the first time in over a decade – “EFFORT-LESS”.”

    I started in late Nov./ early Dec. 2011, made Rising Star Director in one evening….on April 19, 2012 I made Regional Director!

    It’s a great feeling helping people save money, make money and get involved. Obesity is a HUGE problem, globally and WE need to take care of that!

  4. My ViSalus journey has been AWESOME! Extra income and seeing changes in our health and our family! My mom is losing weight and also dropped her cholesterol into normal range in a month or less. My 20+ years of migraines……..gone! Seeing my mother-in-law not bothered so much by her aches and pains. And even my little girl’s memory and attention span improving! Nutrition is amazing! Once the body has what it needs, it can do wonderful things.

    I tried selling cosmetics in the past but lost money. I guess I really didn’t care if someone had a matching lip liner or not. Now people’s health changing? That’s something to promote! Especially since with ViSalus, healthy is now tasty, too!!!

  5. We are waiting very excitedly for Visalus to come to Australia, I lost 2.5 kg in only 2 weeks and can’t wait to continue my lose weight with Visalus journey. Excellent product and very exciting business.

  6. The company, the people, the product NEVER ceases to amaze me! This is something so much bigger then ourselves. This is about helping others achieve what they may have once thought unachievable… ViSalus is about better living AS A WHOLE.. Through life, health, & prosperity! Transforming lives in every way! I have been promoting the 90 day challenge for a little over a year now and my life has transformed in ways that I once too, had only dreamed! My dream is now my reality and I am blessed with the opportunity to help others achieve the same! WOOT WOOT!! It doesn’t get much better then the Vi Life baby!

  7. I absolutely love this company! I began with ViSalus in January to lose weight and within a few days had my 3 for free. More people asked about it so I decided to become a distributor. Within 6 weeks I earned my BMW bonus. I have lost 30 pounds and 30 inches!!! Making money and have made a lot of great new friends! Thank you ViSalus!

  8. Since starting our 90-day challenge I’ve lost 40lbs. and my wife has lost right at 30lbs. As a direct result my doctor discontinued my diabetes meds. blood pressure meds. as well as my cholesterol meds. We make no medical claims as to prevention, curing or healing any medical condition but when we introduce proper nutrition to our bodies our bodies will respond in a positive and beneficial way in most cases. I’m not saying this is the result you will get but this is what I experienced and I must say this is not uncommon.

  9. Joining ViSalus is one of the best things I’ve ever done in my life. I have taken 100% control of my health and fitness and am no longer settling for being obese or significantly increasing my risk of all the diseases associated with it. Moreover, I am so proud to be able to not only help people get in the best shape and health of their lives but also get free products and a BMW to go along with it!!! It’s not surprising to me at all that the numbers keep significantly increasing because we keep significantly improving the lives of people in North America and Canada and eventually the entire world! So proud to be part of ViSalus — everyone rocks, keep it up!

  10. Brandon, you are entitled to your opinions and your math is selective and intent on proving your point. What you don’t understand is the difference between the distribution systems of direct sales distribution vs traditional sale distribution. That’s where you need to start. Once you understand the concept correctly, than you move to examining the actual companies to make certain they meet the prerequisites of a legitimate company. Illegal scams abound on the internet, but you can be safe from them if you apply some basic principles to your research. You can start here by viewing this 4 min video. The “leveraging” concetpt is explained as are the instructions on how to build your own economy instead of expecting the government to do it.

    Hopefully, this will help you to understand that you position is totally incorrect as it applies to most successful networkers. Are there crooks out there who take advantage if people? You bet, but most are involved in illegitimate companies because they don’t stick around the legitimate ones.
