Yoli Convention

OMG OMG OMG OMG....did I say it?  OMG!!!  it was just the best fun ever to be had legally. Teehee :-) But seriously guys, The first Yoli Convention just rocked the Paris Hotel in Las Vegas.  The fact that 1200 people braved the crazy weather, the economy and everything else to be a part of the launch of something this big is just well, amazing.


I do not think I have ever met a more genuine crowd of people in my life  There did come a point where i was thinking "what is wrong with these people??? Nobody could ever be this nice all the bloody time!!!"  Well, they are. 

I am not going to get in to product updates now, that is an entire new blog by itself!  But we learned so much in those 2 packed days, I am still digesting all the info - from plans, to videos, to marketing, to nutrition, to the eco-friendly trees for life and of course the work/life balance tool mindbloom. 



                                  

If you are even remotely considering Yoli, do not hesitate - the time is now.  It is going to take off to new heights that you can't even imagine.... I have seen a glimpse of it all and I tell you the future looks outstanding.  http://allthegood.goyoli.com/.  Please take a look at the video winners and learn lots about us in the process!

Alka Plex - say what???

Have you ever wondered why that cup of coffee set off your stomach or why those chips just didn't settle well at all? There is a HUGE problem sweeping through 1st World countries - Our diets are become more acidic EVERY SINGLE DAY. We are meant to keep our alkalinity and acidity in balance - but that is just near impossible to do nowadays. This is not a biology lesson, far from it - You would run for the hills if I even attempted it! :-) But what this is a call to action. With the information I am sharing, I want all of you to give your diet, your health a little thought.

The Body is our Temple - so it has been said. Then why I ask myself do we on a daily basis, fill it with processed, fake, unnatural foods that, well, let's face it, just really do not provide us with any nutritional value at all...none...zip..nada...you get the picture.

My family and I already do lots of things to stay healthy - no sodas in the house. Never. My son is allowed to drink a soda with dinner out and that is it. Whole grains, organic pastas, fresh veggies and fruit. But does my husband loves his cookies with his tea - you bet your life on it.

So, now I will tell you about my story. I have been suffering with mild heartburn on and off since I was pregnant with my son, now 6. Nothing an antacid couldn’t cure…until about a year ago. It become so bad, I was waking up at night in agony from the acid burning in my throat, in my stomach. I went to the doctor to go through diagnosis - ulcers were mentioned, heavy duty drugs that we all just love to take. I did for awhile. Oh, it helped. But then I got headaches, I felt dizzy - nauseous on many occasion. Diet change had not helped, medicine had not helped. I loved juice, but that was out of the window now too. So I said - kiss my a**, I am off the drugs. I rather figure out a way I can help myself. I began to educate myself, finding things that will give me some relief along the way.

And then I learned about this marvelous company called PH Sciences http://www.phsciences.com/ WOW. Do they get it or what?!?! The have managed to provide us all with something that if you are not using already, you need to really think about doing so - Alka-Plex® .

Enter Stage right - Yoli. I found something that allowed me enjoy the citrus taste I have loved and it has….wait for it…Alka-Plex® in it. I began drinking it on a regular basis and within 2 weeks, my stomach was back to normal. I have not had even a mild case of heart burn since. I went so far over Christmas and threw out all the antacid meds I had - I know, I am such a risk taker, living right on the edge huh? J

So, what is this stuff you are asking? Alka-Plex® Granules are a proprietary mineral complex that is a very strong, yet very safe, alkalizing agent. The granules have three properties:

Reduces the acidity of foods and beverages without damaging flavor;
Increases absorbency of key nutrients; and
Achieves a systemic alkaline balance in the body to improve healthy aging and athletic performance

Furthermore, Alka-Plex® is designated as a New Dietary Ingredient by the FDA – a recognition of uniformity and safety.

Alka-Plex ® granules help balance and manage the complex and critical acid/alkaline relationship in the human body. Alka-Plex® is a solution for low-grade, chronic acidosis – often described as “acidic stress.” Over 400 peer-review articles like low-grade acidosis with aging and dozens of problems associated with the aging process.

Now, I am not making a medical claim here - this is MY STORY and what Yoli and Alka-Plex® have done for me. I can’t say it will do it for you, or that it is a miracle cure - it is not. But with you making the right dietary choices, taking care of yourself, Yoli with its phenomenal formulations providing you with such a foundation, who would not give it a try?? I mean, what do you have to lose? Nothing….Absolutely NOTHING.

If you want to try - contact me. I will get you a free sample. No strings attached. None…zip…nada. J And you can make a call on how great Yoli and their fabulous products are.

Online Marketing Tips from a Newbie

So, on the eve of my trip to the Yoli Convention, I am sifting through the plethora of advertising sites that I have looked at some point and was thinking just how frustrating and down right frightening it can be for someone who has never been very involved with the internet before....and this is coming from a woman who has literally spent her entire career managing online portfolios!

So, this may be of use to those just starting out...or maybe you think I am full of complete rubbish - I am ok with both LOL.

These are some tips from me to you:

1) Facebook Ads - work a charm to drive traffic to your site. They truly do. Don't expect a huge conversion rate though. I am finding it is a fabulous tool to get the word out, but it does not yield 30 prospects a day for us folks who can't afford to spend $400 a day advertising :-) But what I do love about them is that you can in real time set your bids, the ads are approved quickly and you can switch through your ad portfolio easily. A good set up I think.
2) Google Ads - Simply rock. Expensive but such a steady prospect list and you can truly target a group of people out there. Plus they provide you with a great tool to see what key words are working and what isn't.
3) Ad Targeting (adknowledge eg) I think I like them...think. Not sure yet. The reason being is that it seems slow to ramp up. Again, a lot of clicks through but not sure on the conversion/retention front.

Tools that I adore which are....FREE!

1) bit.ly - totally awesome - OMG, how great is it to see what people are clicking on, what drives your traffic etc. Just starting to use it but it works a charm it would seem - will keep you updated on that one.
2) Business Neighborhoods - Like MerchantCircle, PartneredUp, LinkedIn - Great to network, meet others in the industry. Yoli folks are a fun bunch so socializing is easy with us :-)
3) Twitter - if you love to chat, this is the tool for ya. Yes, yes, all strategies aside, I just think it is fun to get on there, speak your mind, concisely of course.
4) Search Engine directory listings: There are a bunch of places that will charge you to do this - yes, it would yield immense results, but let's face it, us start up folk don't have such a cash flow for that yet. One day, one day. But have a dig about and there are tons of services that will push your site through the various search engines for you. Be warned - this does take 6-8 weeks to yield fruit because, well it's free. Those that pay that large sum of money get there first. I say, it is worth the wait.

Ok, that is it for my ramblings today - I am thinking about pulling together some status reports for you guys along the way so that you can see how things work. Let me know if you have anything particular you want me to track for you!

This is a business for most of us - something we all would love to do full time. I know I would love to run my Yoli business all day long. But to get there, we have to start somewhere and work at it. One day at a time. My Opa (Grandpa in German)always told me: "Things that you work hard at are worth having and stay with you - things that come easy are gone just as easy". I do so believe that.

I hope to meet many of you fellow Yolians in Vegas - for those who are new to it - check us out - Yoli is fabulous. Of course, a link to our site: http://allthegood.goyoli.com Join us, it is one of the best moves you can make!

God bless all.

Yoli Truth Blast Cap - Quick Overview

Have you ever wondered what is in one of those cool blast caps? I thought i would give you a couple of product highlights and link to it all of them-TThanks to those great guys at Yoli, we are all able to drink something that is good for us!

So here is the downlow for you:

So what is Alka-Plex® and why do we need it?

Answer : Chronic low-grade metabolic acidosis is a growing health concern. Leading medical researchers are concluding that a decline in health begins when cellular pH moves toward becoming acidic, toxic, and polluted - a process called metabolic acidosis. These metabolic acids - like the acid in your car's battery - are sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, and nitric acid

Our bodies' ability to process acid steadily decreases as we age; that's part of the reason that our bodies have to work harder just to keep our normal functions working properly and maintain blood pH within "normal" ranges of 7.35 to 7.45 pH.

This rise in excess acidity in the body is why pH Sciences created its line of Alka-Plex® alkalizing ingredients and how you can enjoy "Optimal Living through Optimal Body pH".

Alka-Plex® Granules are a proprietary mineral complex that is a very strong, yet very safe, alkalizing agent. A proprietary manufacturing process uses the patented Exact Blending and Compounding (“EBC”) equipment to produce the Alka-Plex® granule. The granules have three properties:
1. Reduces the acidity of foods and beverages without damaging flavor;
2. Increases absorbency of key nutrients; and
3. Achieves a systemic alkaline balance in the body to improve healthy aging and athletic performance.

Independent, peer-reviewed research links acid/alkaline imbalances with limitations on athletic endurance, deteriorating health, and chronic conditions often associated with aging and age-related health limitations. Alka-Plex® consists entirely of ingredients designated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) as GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe). It received FDA recognition as a New Dietary Ingredient (NDI), a designation of product safety and uniformity.

The Yoli Truth Blast Cap® contains a very small amount of Alka-Plex®, just enough to take the edge off of the acid bite of our citrus blend, to improve the sweetness profile of the product, and increase absorption of the other nutrients. However, the Truth product does not contain enough AlkaPlex® to completely alkalize the product. In the near future, we will be introducing a very serious alkalization product with therapeutic doses of Alka-Plex® along with non-acidic flavors and other powerful nutrients.

Question: What is Resveratrol???

Answer: Just google "resveratrol", and you'll find out what the buzz is all about. From Oprah, to Dr. Oz, to Barbara Walters, videos are posted all over the web touting the benefits of resveratrol.

A few years ago, the popular TV program 60 Minutes first examined the so-called French paradox, which suggested that the French - despite a high fat diet and high consumption of wine - had a remarkably low incidence of heart disease compared with Americans. Most researchers agreed that there was something in the wine that offered protection. As 60 Minutes reported in January 2008, scientists across the country have identified a substance in red wine called resveratrol that they believe might do more to assist the body than any other supplement. Just check it out online.

Resveratrol is a phytoalexin produced naturally by several plants such as red grapes. Resveratrol has also been sold as a nutritional supplement derived primarily from Japanese knotweed. Search for “Resveratrol” on YouTube.com.


This is just a small sample of the good stuff they provide - now imagine what their next product will be like!! Yoli is hitting the ground running and once they start, no one will be able to stop them. How cool would it be if you were part of that? Here is the link to their entire FAQs:

Food For Thought

I am sitting here typing away in my computer/game room, my son next to me watching Transformers as the world seemingly is coming to an end outside - the weather is worsening, deep cold settling in - yes, even Florida is not immune to the cold it would seem!

I was just thinking about what I need to do next, which is rest according to my doctor LOL, but anyone who knows me, knows that is literally impossible for me to do. I am a Project Manager through and and through. That means I plan, I organize, I move things along. That is what I am doing now. Trying to let everyone know just how great of an adventure Yoli can be for you.

I think it is worth looking at some things first though, so I have included a couple of links to provide you with some food for thought.

So excited about Yoli and our future

We are all getting ready for the first annual Yoli convention in Vegas!! I can't wait to meet all of the new people, the founders of the company and of course learn about the new products and what the future holds with Yoli.

Having worked in an often crazy IT environment all my life, I always wanted to be able to do something good for others and myself without being tied to an office... Yoli allows me to meet great people, help them improve their health, their spirits and, for any that wish to join us, their wealth! The product speaks for itself, the people who created it are inspiring.

I so wish that everyone takes part in this opportunity of a lifetime - for how often does it happen that you are in the right place at the right time when a company launches - think about it....where would you be now if you had been there when Google, Nike or even Mary Kay launched?! Yoli is giving us all that one opportunity to be there, be a part of it. This time,I am in the right place at the right time - and I am taking part in it.

So email us: liveyoli@mail.com check out our sites: http:committosucceed.goyoli.com or http://allthegood.goyoli.com
