Join Agel's Diamond Directors in "Diamonds for Destiny"

Today Triple Diamond Director Randy Gage and Agel's Executive Vice President of AgelCares Mica Moseley announced the launch of a $1 million AgelCares initiative called "Diamonds for Destiny."

Agel Diamond Directors, Corporate Directors, Senior Directors and other key leaders will be marshalling their efforts to raise one million dollars by the end of the year for AgelCares. The money will be kept in a special account and will be used to build a clinic and boarding house for children with deformities and their fmailies to come and receive medical attention.

The AgelCares "House of Hope" will be built in Belém, Brazil, at the estuary of the Amazon River. Those who are instrumental in raising the money will be traveling to Belém at the end of the year on a charitable mission of giving.

"Giving back is one of the things that really defines us as a culture here at Agel," Randy Gage said. "And this is a way for Agel's leaders to step up." The idea occurred to him at the recent International Leadership Summit in San Diego, California.

"Picture a green AgelCares plane or bus full of ready hands landing like an Agel Special Ops of caring," added Mica Moseley.

Meet Agel's New Diamond Directors Sirapob & Napapa Ratanatapiroj

Meet Sirapob and Napapa Ratanatapiroj from Bangkok, Thailand. They are Agel's newest Diamond Directors and here is their story:

"Ability without Opportunity means nothing. After working as an Engineer for 4 years, I came to the realization that I would never reach my goal of uncommon freedom in life. I started looking around for better opportunities and decided on the Direct Selling industry. The day I quit my engineering job and began working fulltime as my own boss in Direct Selling was a joyful day for me and my wife.

"I spent 15 years in the industry and worked my up to leadership in another Direct Selling company before my sponsor, Sompis Boonyabanca, introduced me to Mr. Niti Sawangsap and I learned about the Agel opportunity.

"With the help of Nat and Chanida Puranaputra and Agel's General Manager of Southeast Asia, Banchar, Napapa and I recognized Agel as the great opportunity of our lifetime. We put our past successes behind us and began our lives anew with Agel.

"In three months we earned our way to Senior Director. Five months more and we were Corporate Directors. After two years with Agel, we are so proud to say the we are Agel Diamonds. We were Senior Directors at our first AgelWorld, and Corporate Directors at our second. And this year at AgelWorld 09, we will cross the stage as Diamonds.

"Napapa and I are living our dream. We found the best opportunity, worked hard, and made the decision to be successful.

"If we can do it, you can do it too!!

"Cling to your hope. Don’t let anybody steal your dream from you.

"Our names are Sirapob & Napapa. Agel truly is our family for we are AGEL!"

It's All About the President's Club...

With Summer upon us the days are heating up here in the Northern Hemisphere. And as they do, Agel markets around the world are heating up, too.

I’ve just completed another marathon tour, this time of Europe and South and Central America and everywhere I go I see new energy and focus and a level of excitement to match anything I have seen in the history of this company.

Much of the excitement is centering around the President’s Club. The Agel President’s Club is, quite simply, one of the most powerful tools team members have in sustaining and retaining their organizations.

When new enrollees are committed to “go for the President’s Club” their first month with Agel by enrolling at least 10 people at the Executive level within their first 30 days, those new enrollees earn back their initial investment within a matter of weeks, earn their first commission checks—a powerful motivator—and find themselves at the head of an organization of their own, looking to them for guidance and support.

And the President’s Club is not just for new team members. All around the world, Agel leaders are building vibrant organizations by committing the organizations to be members of the President’s Club.

This very month, Agel sales personnel are calling and committing top Agel Diamonds and Corporate Directors to qualify for the President’s Club themselves over the next 30 days.

With the world economy and even some companies in our own industry floundering and Agel growing like never before, now is the time for enrollments. Now is the time to recommit to the President’s Club and set the example for your people to do the same.

You can do it. I believe in you.

My name is Craig Bradley and I am Agel!

Metamorphagel Compensation Plan Enhancements Announced

Today, Agel President and COO, Scott Bocklund, announced enhancements to the Agel Worldwide Compensation Plan to bring it in line with the plan currently used in select international markets. "This plan has proven very successful in Southeast Asia," Bocklund commented. "It allows team members to start earning more, faster and adds an additional bonus to the package. There are now 9 ways to earn compensation with Agel."

There are 3 basic enhancements in the new plan, effective immediately:
1. The new plan introduces a new rank below that of Manager. The new rank is called "Supervisor" and requires at least 1,000 CV in the lesser leg.

2. The new plan extends participation in the Leveraged Matching Bonus to all ranks (including Senior Manager, Manager, and Supervisor) according to the following schedule:
Generations

Rank	1	2	3	4	5	6	7
Supervisor	10%
Manager	15%
Senior Manager	20%
Director	25%
Regional Dir.	25%	7%
Senior Dir.	30%	7%	7%
Corporate Dir.	35%	7%	7%	7%
Diamond Dir.	40%	7%	7%	7%	7%
2 Diamond Dir.	45%	7%	7%	7%	7%	7%
3 Diamond Dir.	50%	7%	7%	7%	7%	7%	7%
4 Diamond Dir.	50%	7%	7%	7%	7%	7%	7%

3. The new plan adds an entirely new bonus called the "Rank Advancement Pool." Each month one percent of the Global Company CV is distributed among Team Members who qualify at Supervisor, Manager, or Senior Manager. This is a weighted bonus based on rank. Supervisor = 2 shares, Manager = 3 shares, Senior Manager = 4 shares. An additional one half percent of the Global Company CV is also distributed among those who qualify at Director or Regional Director. Director = 1 share, Regional Director = 2 shares.

As part of the new plan rollout, Agel is also, effective immediately, raising the overall compensation cap from 50% of Commissionable Volume (CV) to 51%. "That will mean millions and millions of dollars in additional payouts this year," added EVP of Global Sales, Jeff Higginson. "This is huge!"

We are thrilled to announce these significant enhancements to what was already the most generous and effective compensation plan in the industry. If you have any questions about how these changes might affect you, please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Service Team.

AgelWorld '09 Keynote Speaker Summits Mt. Everest

"Right Now!" Ed Viesturs, the only U.S. climber to have climbed all fourteen of the world's 8,000 meter peaks without supplemental oxygen, has just achieved his goal of summiting Mount Everest successfully for the seventh time!

Ed wrote of his historic attempt:

"We left last night at about 11:00 under beautiful skies. We had a phenomenal day. I...got to the summit about 8:30 in the morning. So it got a little blustery on top. We spent probably an hour on the summit and we got back here at Camp IV at 1:00 in the afternoon. So about a 14 hour round trip. Conditions were good. The weather was almost perfect. You could see forever."

Click here to read all of Ed's dispatches from the "top of the world."

In preparation for his climb, Agel sent Mr. Viesturs several boxes of Agel products. He particular used PRO, MIN, and OHM while gearing up for Everest.

On Saturday, September 5th, Ed will be one of the keynote speakers at the top of our AgelWorld '09 the theme of which was just announced: "Right Now!" Be sure to register today.

Please remember, even if you have an AgelWorld voucher (included in our new Enrollment Kits) you will still need to register both yourself and your guest online in order to redeem your voucher and attend AgelWorld '09. Vouchers are non-transferrable.

A Place for Everyone

One of the great blessings of my life is that in my new role, I get to spend much of my time with you, the Agel team members worldwide. It doesn’t seem like there is a corner of the globe I haven’t visited to encourage you, help train you, and cheer your victories.

This past month I visited Europe, Southeast Asia, and Africa. As you can imagine, the kaleidoscope of colors, scenery, sounds, smells, tastes, and culture was varied and unique in each part of the world. But everywhere I went, I found the same thing—people whose lives have been changed by their association with Agel, its remarkable products, and its business opportunities.

In a time of worldwide difficulty, Agel stands as a shining beacon because it is accessible to everyone. No matter where you come from, no matter what your background, you can improve your health and build financial security for yourself and the ones you love with Agel.

In Thailand I saw a young couple, Maiyasit Swangthammarat and his darling Puchita, who are 26 and 25 years old respectively. Maiyasit, or Mai, identified network marketing as his industry of opportunity at a young age and went straight from college into direct selling. He and Puchita, or Polly, became Agel’s youngest Diamond Directors (at least for a month, as Nattida Puranaputra, 24 years old, just hit Diamond last week!!) Congratulations to our young people who are laying the foundation for their futures.

In Africa I met a father with a young family, Sola Popoola, living in the bustling city of Lagos, Nigeria. He is an accountant who found he could better provide for his family’s future through his Agel business. He now does Agel fulltime and has already achieved the rank of Regional Director. With Agel, he can provide educational opportunities for his little ones.

In Vietnam I met Hoang Hai Yen, a single mother with two children who was eeking out her existence as a hairdresser. She recognized the Agel opportunity as a way for her to get ahead and now she makes more money in a month than most people in her country make in ten years(!!). That is the truth. In April, she became Agel’s tenth Double Diamond Director.

From young people, to families, to single mothers, in places like Africa and Vietnam, the Agel story proves that all you need to get ahead in life is purpose, hard work, and determination to work through the rejection and hard times.

The system works, people. I have seen it.

And that is why I am so proud to say…

My name is Craig Bradley and I am Agel!

Ten Myths and Realities of Goal Setting

In my twenty plus years in the direct selling industry I have seen it all. But there is ONE thing I've never seen....

In all my years of experience, I have NEVER seen a leader that did not set goals, write them down, refer to them, and work specific plans to meet them. Knowing how to set and work goals is, quite literally, a requirement for success in this business. And in the spirit of that, I offer ten clarifying statements to help you assess where you stand with regard to this critical skill....

Myth #1: Goal Setting Is Not That Important
Reality: Success Requires Goals—End of Story! A life of meaning needs goals and specific plans to achieve them. Success does not happen by accident.

Myth #2: Goal Setting Is Difficult and Takes Too Much Time
Reality: Performance is accelerated by time invested in strategy. The game of life is won behind the scenes, in time spent on preparation.

Myth #3: New Years Is the Best Time to Set Goals
Reality: There’s no better time than now to take control of your life. Goal-Setting is not about timing, it’s about decision. This life is not a dress rehearsal; it’s the only one you’ve got.

Myth #4: Goals Don’t Need to Be Written—Keep Them In Your Head
Reality: Written goals clarify thinking, objectify their potential, and reinforce commitment. The palest ink is better than the strongest memory. Goals once out of site, soon become goals out of mind!

Myth #5: Long-Term Planning Is a Waste of Time
Reality: Your Future deserves consideration. It will someday be your present reality. It’s worth considering seriously.

Myth #6: A Good Plan Is All You Need to Be Successful
Reality: Success is active, not passive. All plans require action. Preparation is no substitute for action. Commit to the philosophy of implement now—perfect later.

Myth #7: The Best Way to Achieve a Goal Is to Just Begin
Reality: Action without planning is the root cause of most failure. Success is a choice. With a plan to lead, you can figure out how to get where you are going.

Myth #8: All It Takes Is Hard Work to Achieve Your Goals
Reality: Hard work is important, but working smart is mandatory. Quit trying harder, look for new solutions, and you will accomplish far more in far less time with only a fraction of the effort you have been giving.

Myth #9: I Can Do It On My Own—I Don’t Need Help
Reality: Success requires cooperation. Nobody does it alone. In order to achieve more you must learn to help yourself. Success requires the cooperation of others.

Myth #10: Goals Only Need to Be Reviewed Once a Year
Reality: Inspect what you expect. Everything changes. Your goals must keep shaping, shifting and flexing to fit these fast-changing times. Adopt a regular and consistent review process.

Agel Announces Structural Changes
