Helping Americans Naturally Lose Weight, Quixtar Introduces Nutrilite Slimmetry

Quixtar Inc. and its sister company, Amway Corporation, launches an all-natural dietary supplement.

Buena Park, CA (PRWEB)
February 21, 2008 — The struggle to shed pounds through diet and
exercise alone is a losing battle for many Americans, yet dietary
supplements designed to help fight the battle of the bulge often over
promise and under deliver. Quixtar Inc. and its sister company, Amway
Corporation, are launching an all-natural dietary supplement that was
shown in a human clinical trial to deliver statistically significant
weight loss when used in conjunction with regular physical activity and
a low calorie diet.

Quixtar is offering NUTRILITE® SLIMMETRY™ dietary supplement as part of
the NUTRILITE product line. NUTRILITE is the world’s leading brand of
vitamin, mineral and dietary supplements*. It’s the only global vitamin
and mineral brand to grow, harvest, and process plants on its own
certified organic farms**. Quixtar chose SLIMMETRY because it is
all-natural and clinically tested, further supporting NUTRILITE’s
commitment to promoting optimal health through natural methods.

Jerry Harteis - 30 Year Amway/Quixtar Diamond Resigns

Date: Thu, 1 Nov 2007 11:14:38-0400
From: “HARTEIS ASSOCIATES, INC”

Subject: Quixtar/Amway Business

Dear Friends:

Jerry and I have been in our Amway/Quixtar business over 30 years. During this time, we have gained tremendously from the leadership training programs, the continuing education audios and books that were recommended. Indeed, these programs allowed us to achieve significant measures of success both in our Amway/Quixtar business and in other business/work ventures.

Quixtar has made some recent business decisions concerning future operations which are very disturbing to us. For years we promoted that the one key factor which distinguished our business from all others was the integrity of managment and the fact that no decisions were made without approval by the IBOAI board. The IBOAI board was comprised of Independant Business Owners (IBOs) and was established to insure that the financial interests of IBOs would never be compromised by management decisions.

A short time ago, Quixtar came up with new plans for its U.S. business which the IBOAI board determined would be detrimental to each Independant Business Owner. Regardless, Quixar ignored the board recommendations and decided to implement their new policies. As a matter of principle, many of the IBOAI board resigned. People who had spent many years building their businesses were summarily terminated and it appears that Quixtar is now running a smear campaign against them.

The fact that Quixtar/Amway management were willing to violate one of their founding principles leaves us questioning what other changes may be in store for the future. Current new policies include reverting back to the Amway name, refocusing all IBO’s toward a mostly (if not all) retail business and overseeing/ controlling all business support materials and training meetings.

Additionally, the IBOAI board had been repeatedly asking for more price-competitive product lines since the internet had leveled the playing field with regard to product availability. Those requests have gone unheeded.

We will continue to build the personal and leadership development portion of our business as we feel there is tremendous value to those who make use of it, however we cannot in good conscience continue to build or promote the Quixtar/Amway business. As such, effective November 1, 2007, we will resign from Quixtar/Amway. We intend to honor the Amway/Quixtar six-month-inactivity rule and not pursue any competing business before that time period ends.

We appreciate each and every one of you and wish you luck in your future endeavors.

Love, Jerry & Polly
