greg Fullerton: Making the Most of Max Momentum
We are launching the Momentum Tour to amplify
the astounding success of Max Associates
throughout the United States and Canada.
There will be 109 high-energy events in 43
cities throughout North America during July
and August. Each attending Associate will be
empowered to take Max to the world by utilizing
the expertise of our established field leaders.
Events drive our business. Whether we
meet in conference calls and webinars or
regional events, these gatherings spur us to
accomplishments we might never achieve alone.
Sharing success stories and becoming friends as
well as colleagues, strengthens these important
relationships and lifts us all to a higher level.
The Momentum Tour will also help us build a consistent, company-wide message that
will keep us all on the same page as this company continues its exponential growth.
Whether you take a prospect to a meeting in Ontario, Canada or Miami, Florida, you
will find a unified message being presented. All Max leaders will operate in unity no
matter where they are located.
The Tour will feature some of our outstanding field leaders who will conduct hour-long
sessions covering five key areas:
1. The workings of the MLM industry
2. Market Trends
3. Company Leaders
4. Science-Based, Effective Products
5. The Max Opportunity

products and visionary leaders.
Many exciting things are coming in the very near future. The Momentum Tour will increase Max velocity as
we look forward to the Imagine Convention in September. Our convention will have informative breakout
sessions with medical and industry professionals. It will include the inaugural launch of the Gold Training.
Associates can earn a spot for this three-day training from executives and key field leaders prior to the
Convention. (Please see “Go for the Gold” on page 14 of this newsletter for more information.)
The second half of 2008 will be an unparalleled experience for all of us. This is an exciting time to be involved
in setting the standard for the future of our industry. We are deeply grateful for your many accomplishments
as members of the Max team!

“Employing Yourself”
We believe one of the biggest keys to becoming
successful in Max is learning to “employ yourself”
or “be your own boss,” especially if you have never
been self-employed. Seemingly small things that you
would routinely do when someone else is your boss
become much harder to do when you are your own
boss. This is because you truly have the freedom to
do them or not do them – there is no one except
yourself that can give you a raise if you do them or
fire you if you don’t.
In your Max business, these things include
contacting prospects on a daily basis, sending out a
lot of information and product, consistently getting
on conference calls, and perpetually attending and
building for events.
Many of these things can be referred to as “plugging
in,” and it is virtually impossible to build a large team
unless it is plugged in. Further, as a general rule,
your team only “plugs in” to the extent that you do.
Consequently, a key element to employing yourself
is consistently plugging in to the events that are held
by your team and Max corporate.
“Most people would succeed in Max
beyond their wildest dreams if they
would just work for themselves half as
hard as they work for someone else.”
Zig Ziglar said,“There is a 99% chance that you
will not make it in network marketing if you do not
PLUG IN!”
One of the greatest barriers to successfully employing
yourself is what Jim Rohn calls “the subtlety of success
and failure.” This is a major curve ball! Everyday,
people continually make simple “right decisions” or
“wrong decisions” with no immediate results either
way. Right decisions and actions do not instantly
produce success, and wrong decisions and actions
do not instantly produce failure. However, the effect
of both will inevitably accumulate and compound
over time and eventually tip one way or the other –
leading to your ultimate success or failure.
In Max, missing an occasional event or conference
call won’t instantly ruin your business and doesn’t
seem to make any difference at all at the time.
However, allowing it to become a pattern or making
it a habit to miss events, conference calls, trainings,
etc. will pretty much insure your eventual failure.
Successful consultants persistently do small things
every day that don’t seem to make any difference
when they do them, but that make all the difference
over time.
Also, another key for successfully employing yourself
is to develop a “No Matter What” Attitude. “Life”
happens to everyone, and while some distractions
and excuses are more serious or real than others,
all distractions and excuses are equal if they prevent
recruiting / training rick and Michelle Teague:

you from achieving your goals. While some people
let things as minor as a rain shower or their mood
stand in their way, others don’t allow even the
most major things to stop them. There are many
industry and Max success stories of people who
have succeeded against all types of seemingly
insurmountable odds. As they’ll testify, opportunity
doesn’t wait for the perfect time to knock and is
never built on convenience, but does reward those
who are resolved to succeed “no matter what.”
The bottom line is that most people would succeed
in Max beyond their wildest dreams if they would
just work for themselves even half as hard as they
work for someone else. Why they sometimes don’t
is perhaps the greatest mystery of all. That’s right,
some people will do absolutely amazing things on
their job, for bosses they don’t even like, with no
chance to ever do anything more than live paycheck
to paycheck, yet when it comes to potentially earning
a fortune working for themselves, they constantly
do, or don’t do, things that would obviously get
them fired at their job.
Don’t fall into this trap. Just because someone is
not looking over your shoulder, don’t be fooled into
thinking something doesn’t matter or that there will
not be a consequence – everything matters, the
results just may be temporarily invisible. Learn to
employ yourself by consistently and persistently
applying these principles to your business and watch
it soar!

levels of success, we would love to have your feedback. Please contact our Sales Director, Bob Kaelin

Follow-up-will-pay!
The Max International issue of Your Business At Home has been phenomenally successful
for Max Associates in recruiting both new Associates and Preferred Customers. The recent
magazine reprint is allowing Associates to continue using this powerful recruitment tool.
An exciting way to put this marvelous marketing tool to use in your Max business is
“2-a-day/10-in-play.” And remember, “Follow-up-will-pay!” A tried-and-true principle is to
place two magazines with contacts each day until you have “ten in play.”
When you follow-up on a placement and are told either yes or no, then that magazine is
no longer in play. Now it’s time to give the magazine to another prospect. By observing this
technique of “2-a-day/10-in-play,” you will always have ten magazines out there working
for you!

and Max WLX
Are extra pounds slowing you down? Does dieting sometimes leave you physically and emotionally drained? Fortunately,
Max International may have exactly what you are looking for. Imagine shedding those unwanted pounds without sacrificing
energy or optimism. By harnessing the patented and clinically studied actions of MaxGXL (glutathione accelerator) and
Max WLX (weight loss accelerator) your body will be supplied with the 1-2 punch needed to naturally increase fat loss,
purify the cells and protect cellular energy.
MaxgXL Fights Inflammatory
Cytokines That also Promote Fat storage
Dr. Robert H. Keller, the renowned scientist who developed MaxGXL,
shared information about a study presented in San Francisco at the June
meeting of the Endocrine Society. The study showed how a compound
found in the spice turmeric caused a decrease in inflammation in liver
and fatty tissue.
Dr. Keller noted that the study strengthens previous literature reporting
that fat cells cause an immune response resulting in inflammatory cytokines, which he calls “the terrible
triplet” of IL1, IL6 and TNF alpha. He said, “These cytokines have an anti-insulin effect and promote fat
storage rather than utilization. Cordyceps in MaxGXL is equally, if not more, effective than curcumin in
reducing cellular inflammatory cytokine production and, as such works in tandem with Max WLX.” 1
Fight sluggishness
Carrying around extra weight drags you down. Because Max WLX works to restore sensitivity of an important
fat-regulating hormone called leptin, your body will have what it needs to fight hunger and increase fat
burning. Finally, your body will be working with you to achieve weight loss.
On the Max WLX portion of the Max website (www.maxgxl.com) you will find information on how Max WLX
works to restore effectiveness to the communication system between adipocytes (fat cells) and the brain.
By increasing your body’s ability to send and receive leptin signals, you will have the ability to consume less,
feel satisfied and start burning fat.
How important is leptin signaling? A double-blind, placebo-controlled study at the University of Connecticut 2
showed the effectiveness of Max WLX along with a reduced-calorie diet and an exercise program. The dieters
in the Max WLX group lost 90 percent more body fat than the group that did not supplement with the Max
WLX formula.
overcoming “dieters slump”
Adding exercise to your schedule along with a modified food intake program can sometimes cause fatigue
until your body adjusts. Fortunately, by supplementing with MaxGXL you can overcome this common slump.
MaxGXL increases glutathione production which naturally optimizes energy production inside every cell by
quenching free radicals and protecting cell quality.
Dr. Robert H. Keller said, “Glutathione allows each cell in your body to function maximally, meaning to
produce the most energy it possibly can.” 3

product information Fat:
More than an unpleasant sight
Fat is more than just unpleasant to the eye. What can you find in fat cells besides stored fat? Something even
more noxious is lurking inside—toxins. As you lose weight, toxins can be released into your body causing a
lot of undue stress on your system, contributing to potential fatigue. What kind of toxins? Let’s start with
organochlorines.
Certain harmful pesticides are called organochlorine compounds. They include the infamous DDT as well as
pesticides chlordane, heptachlor and dichlor. One environmental website wrote: “Because of their chemical
structure, organochlorines break down slowly, build up in fatty tissue and remain in our bodies for a long
time.” 4 A study of abdominal fat tissue samples from people in Greenland and southern Denmark showed
significant levels of these organochlorine chemicals stored in fat tissues. 5
Another study noted the presence of organochlorine compounds like DDE, PCBs and pentachlorobenzene in
fish in Norway. 6 The study discussed accumulation of such compounds through food chains into an organism’s
fat. When researchers first started checking for toxins in humans, they looked at lipids or fats as in a Lancet
article titled “Lipid profiles of dioxin-exposed workers.” 7
The need for glutathione
When Burning stored Body Fat
So what happens when you start losing fat? Toxins are undoubtedly released
into your body. Research about persistence of the drug PCP in adipose (fat) tissue
discussed the possibility of “the release of large amounts of the drug from fat stores in
situations involving food deprivation, marked weight loss or stress.” 8 Losing weight might
release a number of stored toxins from previous exposure to occupational or
environmental chemicals, pharmaceutical drugs or pesticides.
You can be grateful to Max WLX for the fat loss. But now more
than ever, you need MaxGXL for cellular detoxification.
Glutathione is one of the principle components to
neutralize and dispose of toxins.
An article in the March
2008 MaxToday newsletter
(archived on the Max
website under “Downloads”)
discussed how glutathione
binds to toxic heavy metals
and transports them to the
liver where even more
glutathione resides, ready
to finish the detox job
and escort the metals
out of the body.

in adipose tissue (fat cells) can be “chaperoned” from the body if there are adequate stores
of glutathione in the body.
The Power of synergy
Who could better sum up the value of two Max products working together than MaxGXL creator, Dr. Robert
H. Keller? He wrote, “By clearing toxins, mitochondrial function would also be improved so MaxGXL and
Max WLX would work in an additive, if not synergistic manner.” If you are taking Max WLX, don’t forget to
Maximize its effectiveness with MaxGXL!

product testimonials
MaxgXL ®
"The Glutathione Accelerator"
I was introduced to Max GXL by family. They explained all the benefits of the product,
but I still wasn’t truly convinced. I started on the product in January 2008, almost
one year after a one-week stay in the Intensive Care Unit for some serious health
problems. Within 2 weeks of starting MaxGXL, I noticed my energy level had risen. I
had more energy to get myself to the gym, I started lifting heavier weights, started
to run on the treadmill, which I had not done for a few years. I started to do the
things that I really wanted to do. I’m now exercising five times a week since I have
more energy to do it.
I am eating better, and not craving all the junk I used to eat because I don’t feel
Fernando Torres stress like I did before. I am not waking up during the night. I am able to sleep
Corona, CA
better and therefore feel refreshed every morning now when I wake up. I have
dropped weight since I have the energy to burn more calories. I really feel like a new man! Thank you, Dr. Robert
Keller for formulating this amazing supplement! You are a genius! MaxGXL is truly life changing!
Steve Holleran
Hamilton, ON
Like so many people who first hear of MaxGXL, I had my doubts about what it could
do for me and how it would improve my life. I was approached by a good friend of
mine named Gary. He told me he wanted to show me this new product that would
improve my overall health and improve my physical performance. I was intrigued
because I was thinking about competing in the World Police and Fire Games for
Karate in British Columbia in 2009.
I am a firefighter for the city of Mississauga, Ontario and for the past while I wanted
to get back into competing. I hold a black belt in Tae Kwon Do. I used to compete all
the time but for the past ten years my focus went to other things. I never stopped
running, stretching and lifting weights but as far as martial arts and competition, I
was out of fighting shape. I knew that if I was going to do this, I needed all the help
I could get.
Gary explained the inner workings of Glutathione and MaxGXL. To say the least, I was interested. My third day on
MaxGXL I had one of my best Karate classes to date. My cardio was limitless that night. The hour long class was
actually not long enough! I could have gone for a second hour. It was then that I knew I had to keep taking this
stuff. Since then I have been having some highs and lows. I have had to battle through some muscle strains and
pulls. Like I said, it has been ten years since I have trained for competition. I almost welcome the injuries because
with MaxGXL in my system, it seems I am recovering more quickly from strenuous workouts and injuries. The best
part of taking MaxGXL is going to class. My Karate classes are at 8 p.m. After completing a full day of activities it
was hard to have the energy and motivation to give it my all. That is no longer a concern. Now that I take MaxGXL,
I always have the energy to go and the effort I put into it when I am there is 100 percent.
On April 12th, 2008 I came out of retirement having competed in my first local Karate tournament. I placed first
in my division and second for Grand Champion. I owe a large part of this to MaxGXL. I look forward to future
competitions, not only because I know my body is functioning as it should but also because I want to share my
story and more importantly… MaxGXL!

Top associate recruiters
german Centeno was born and raised in El Salvador and grew up in a
close-knit, working-class family. “We had a unique situation due to a strong
upbringing from hard-working parents. There was always an abundance of
food on the table with a touch of love and unity.”
He moved to the U.S. when he was 18, hoping to apply the strong work
ethic he learned from his parents to the American dream. He has lived in
California for the last 35 years where he raised his own family. In that time he
built a successful equipment repair business while working various network
marketing opportunities on the side. Because of extensive experience with other
companies, German has firsthand knowledge of what a unique opportunity
he has found at Max International. Because of Max International he feels he and his family are living the
American dream more than ever now.
“This is unlike any company I’ve ever seen,” he said.
After he started taking MaxGXL himself he gave it to his family. He also gave it to a friend who was having
serious health issues and she felt a difference almost immediately. She is now an active member of his team.
He continues to have similar experiences consistently. After seeing the life-changing effect it was having
on people around him he knew he was on to something special. Many of the people he has recruited were
working in fields like Real Estate that allowed them a lot of flexibility to work the business. German has seen
Max impact his friends and associates, both in terms of health and income, and couldn’t be more excited
about his future with the company.

riccardo Ferrari and rick Hagar have only been with
Max International for a little over a month, but they and
their team, which includes Top Recruiters Stefanie Nichols
and Steve Green, have already made a strong impression
during their short time here. In their last company they were
the number one wage earners and built a sales organization
of nearly 200,000 people. They expect to follow the same
pattern at Max International.
“We fully intend to build a worldwide business that produces
the vast majority of the company’s volume and becomes one of the premiere teams in the company,” Rick said.
“When Max becomes a billion dollar company we fully expect to be responsible for half of the revenue.”
They made the decision to come to Max because of the tremendous potential they see here. Riccardo and
Rick said with founders like Steve Scott, Fred Ninow and Greg Fullerton in partnership with Guthy-Renker,

combined with a life-transforming product, there is more potential than anything that has come in this
industry. Within the next five years Rick said he can see much of that potential coming to fruition.
“The credibility and grand vision of the founders is one of the greatest things about the company,” Rick said.
Riccardo and Rick feel that building the business involves four basic elements. First, capture a person’s
heart by being passionate about what you’re selling and truly connecting with a potential recruit. They feel
Steve Scott is a very impressive example of this. The next two steps are interrelated – never stop recruiting
people and always train your recruits. They feel that far too many people in this industry fail to be adequately
trained. Last, and of equal importance, develop leadership.
“To me it’s not just about selling a product. If you don’t develop leadership qualities your business breaks
down and doesn’t go anywhere,” Rick said.

types of businesses, including network marketing, over the years. He is an author and a motivational speaker,
having received training from some of the best teachers in the world, including such notable personalities as
Anthony Robbins.
Sharing MaxGXL with his patients and other people in his life is a natural extension of his belief in the
company and its products and how they can transform people’s lives. He feels he is offering people something
they really need. He presents it in a way that makes it hard for people to say no, emphasizing that it is an
opportunity that can vastly improve their health and help them achieve financial freedom.
“I help them see it would be foolish not to accept such an offering,” Dr. Gazali said.
Another selling point is that it fits into any lifestyle. Regardless of your profession you can make Max work
for you. Since it is based on team work you always have the full support of the people you’re working with.
Dr. Gazali feels an obligation to do everything in his power to help his team members succeed.
As a doctor who works with nutritional and natural supplements, Dr. Gazali is amazed by MaxGXL. He said it
works remarkably fast. Some people he’s recommended it to have seen results in just a few hours.
“Unbelievable. Dr. Keller will be the most popular scientist in his era.”

dr. Purwanto Purwo works full-time as a General Practitioner. Before
coming to Max International he was already living an active, healthy lifestyle.
In addition to running and lifting weights, he eats healthy foods and takes
daily supplements. In fact, he was the marketing director for a leading health
supplement manufactured in Korea.
Dr. Purwo said when he started taking MaxGXL he felt very energized and has
seen much improvement in the health of his patients who are taking MaxGXL.
The people he has introduced to the company range from leaders in network
marketing to colleagues in the healthcare industry and patients.
He said that when introducing someone to the company he explains that he has a product that is like no
other. It can benefit everyone by increasing intracellular glutathione, which no other product on the market
can. If they express an interest initially he arranges a meeting to go into greater depth.
“When I explain the product in detail, I also explain the business opportunity,” he said. Dr. Purwo also
explains the compensation plan, which is different from any out there, and gives them the opportunity to
become Associates in the company.

a patient can benefit from MaxGXL he recommends a week’s supply and
does careful follow-up to see how they are responding. So far, everyone
he’s introduced to the product has responded well. He foresees improvement in immune system function,
increased energy and accelerated detoxification as potential benefits from taking MaxGXL. Dr. Turner looks
forward to seeing how MaxGXL can help certain patients and continuing to discover more about how it will
compliment his innovative techniques.
“MaxGXL is a product that is beneficial for almost everyone and is advisable as a general supplement to
promote better levels of health.”

rina Busra Mutmainah is a housewife full-time and the leader of a
healthcare program in her housing complex. She works Max International in
her spare time and in conjunction with her healthcare work. The healthcare
group is run by the members of the community who report to the city medical
health department. The program provides healthcare at reasonable costs to
members of the housing complex.
Rina was introduced to Max International through Joseph and Susiana Berliarang
who often speak at Max meetings.
Rina introduced MaxGXL during a gathering of members of the healthcare
group, and explained the health benefits of taking MaxGXL. In addition to sharing her personal testimonial,
she provided free samples, so they could have firsthand experience with it. She was surprised with the
response she got. Many of the people she provided free samples to wanted to join as Associates. She was
more than happy to oblige. As a result, she signed up over a dozen recruits in a single month.
She looks forward to continuing her work both as a leader in her healthcare group and building her business
in Max International. Although this work, in addition to being a full-time mom, is challenging, she finds great
fulfillment in all three roles.
stefanie nichols and steve green are working the business
together and have had a lot of success in a short time. Stefanie has
worked in network marketing for eleven years. Steve has worked in
network marketing for 23 years on the corporate side as a consultant
and distributor. Stefanie said she’s known about the company for a year
but only signed up as an Associate in May.
Stefanie and Steve decided to come onboard when they heard about
the amazing success people were having financially and with MaxGXL
specifically. When they heard about the Max founders teaming up with
Guthy-Renker to bring the product to the marketplace, they knew they
had to take a closer look.
“Every once in a while a company comes along that transcends the industry. Max International is one of
those rare companies,” Steve said.
Stefanie said the number one reason she came to Max can be summed up in three words, “Steven K.
Scott.”
“That man changed my life,” she said. “We just had to make a move and come onboard.”
They are also sold on MaxGXL. Stefanie said they’ve never felt better and have more energy than they’ve
had in years.

“We feel fantastic,” she said.
Stefanie gives a lot of the credit for her success so far to her team. She knows her future success will be
dependent on them as well. She has been doing a lot of delegating and, when you trust in your team as much
as she does, that’s easy to do.
“I put a lot of value on selling my team,” she said. “Helping your people and relying on their support is what
it’s all about. I feel like I’ve been waiting for this opportunity all my life.”
Stefanie makes good use of conference calls to put her team’s experience at the forefront. She said with a
very special team in a dream company like Max you can’t go wrong.

the Top Preferred Customer recruiters
al greer has been the top Preferred Customer recruiter for five months in a row. He also went Gold
this month and is featured in the Rank Advancements section of this issue. Top Recruiters sue and alan
Mcdonald and Will and nancy Farrell were also featured in past editions of MaxToday.
Ken Hightower said that with his internet savvy and invaluable support from
his upline he has the complete package and the formula for success. Ken said
that his advice to people getting into a network marketing company is to carefully
choose an upline that consists of people with good reputations, who will provide
the kind of support you need. Ken said he knew of his sponsor Ricky Brandino
from an earlier venture and knew he could count on him before he got involved
with Max International.
Ken said that half of his recruits have come over the internet. In all of his years
of marketing health-related products over the Internet he has gotten good at
knowing how to guide people to his website using search engines and other tools.
The great thing about this form of marketing, according to Ken, is that people who come to you, instead of
the other way around, already have an interest in what you are selling. They are often people in a prime
position to succeed.
“They’re already interested. All you have to do is close the deal,” Ken said.
The trick is getting a good online presentation that will draw people in and give them the information they
need to make an informed decision about the product or the company. Ken said Max has a lot of effective

tools on their website that give people great information about our products.
He said the video with Steve Scott and Dr. Keller discussing MaxGXL is powerful and he and his wife were
immediately drawn to its message. If you can get other people to listen to your own passionate testimonial
it will often have the same effect.
Ken said he is excited about marketing Max WLX. In addition to being a great product he feels there is
tremendous marketing potential because the weight-loss industry is off the charts. Having a product that
does something nothing else out there does is huge.
“If you think I’m bringing in people now, just wait!”
diane and John Ward essentially recruited themselves
to Max International. Diane had suffered for years with
discomfort in the joints of her hands and John discovered
MaxGXL through research on the internet. When they read
up on the company and the product they ran across the
Max edition of Your Business At Home in a local bookstore.
They contacted and signed up under Elaine Tomrell who was
listed in the Super Achiever section. Diane saw remarkable
improvements in her hands after about six weeks and they
became excited about sharing it with people.
By profession Diane is a nurse and hypnotherapist and John has worked in auto sales for 22 years. Diane
said her work in hypnotherapy is very complimentary to Max International and its philosophy of changing
people’s lives through groundbreaking products. In hypnotherapy her clients address issues in their lives,
both physical and psychological, by confronting emotions from the past. Through the power of suggestion
they can enhance weight loss through the mind. Similarly MaxGXL and Max WLX reprogram our bodies to
make it function to its best capacity.
John said he always leads with the product. Their own powerful story of finding the product on their own and
having their health transformed by it is a strong selling tool.
“Passionate stories sell,” John said.
Diane and John are also looking forward to selling Max WLX. They said if it does what others say it can do,
it will sell itself. They look forward to seeing how the two products, MaxGXL and Max WLX will work together
to benefit the body.

dr. donald Levine is what some recruiters might call a golden contact.
Before finding MaxGXL, he was already looking for a product that would allow
glutathione to be absorbed into the cells. As an ENT he wanted an alternative
treatment for patients suffering from problems not easily treatable by other
methods. He knew what a powerful antioxidant glutathione was and knew it
could be used to improve, among other things, certain types of hearing loss.
For example, Dr. Levine said there are hearing disorders where the inner ear
can be so deteriorated even the best hearing aid can barely touch it. Dr. Levine
knew increased intra-cellular glutathione can biologically accomplish what
artificial methods sometimes can’t.
“Doctors often look into anti-aging supplements as an alternative in these cases,” Dr. Levine said. “When
I discovered MaxGXL at an exhibit at the American Academy of Anti-aging Medicine in Orlando, Florida it
stopped me in my tracks.”
Dr. Levine said he assesses each case individually and, if he feels MaxGXL could help more than a traditional
method, doesn’t hesitate to recommend it.
Dr. Levine is also a patient. He is being treated by a fellow ENT for a long-standing problem that has caused
considerable discomfort for him over the years. He started taking MaxGXL himself as he anticipated the
possibility of recommending it to patients. His mother had also been dealing with significant health issues of
her own. MaxGXL helped both of them in ways that medication had barely touched.
He said he is excited to see what other things MaxGXL can help with. Dr. Levine said it could have farreaching
effects on how medicine is practiced in the future.
Myrka Brisson and andy shim have only been in the
company three months but have advanced two months in a
row, most recently becoming Silver Associates in June. Andy
and Myrka’s strengths compliment each other because their
approaches and backgrounds are so different.
“By working from opposite sides of the spectrum we meet in
the middle,” Myrka said.
They’re from vastly different backgrounds both geographically
and professionally. Myrka is French Canadian and Andy is from Trinidad in the West Indies. Andy comes from
a business background and Myrka works as a flight attendant and life coach. Andy is business minded and
Myrka works more in the spiritual realm. They have a common passion for MaxGXL and a love for sharing it
in their unique ways.

Many of their recruits have come from Myrka’s colleagues in the airline industry. She says she changes flight
crews all the time and will be with one for only a few days at a time. But she works very closely with each
crew during that time. She has been able to approach many of her crew members and introduce them to
MaxGXL.
With her work as a life coach she has gained peoples’ trust on a whole other level.
“A life coach helps people achieve their dreams,” she said.
This makes it all the more important that she set the example. She joked that if she fails to achieve her
dreams she’ll have to hire her own coach. Her success at Max has grown out of years of building trust. Her
clients know she would never recommend a product she didn’t totally believe in and they trust her judgment
completely.
Andy’s research-driven, relationship-focused approach is equally effective. He convincingly sells the opportunity
and the product based on his knowledge of the company, the compensation plan and how MaxGXL can help
the body. His business savvy is invaluable to building the business in the most productive way from the
ground up.
Together they are unstoppable, as their early success attests.

Michael unclebach, of Sherman, Texas, said he is proud to
be associated with Max International. For Mike, marketing MaxGXL
has been about sharing his story with people. Mike wasn’t looking for
anything else in his life when Max showed up. He had lost most of the use of
his left leg due to an allergic reaction to a plug used on a femoral artery after a
heart catheter procedure in the hospital. He went from being extremely active and
training for a marathon to feeling like he’d had a stroke in his right leg. He had been
jogging up to two hours a day, and overnight was barely able to walk up and down
his driveway. When he got a call from Rick Teague offering to send him a sample
of MaxGXL he was desperate enough to try just about anything. After 20 days on
MaxGXL he was jogging for 30 minutes a day. That was in January 2008. Seven months later he has several
hundred people on his team. He said he talks to everybody about MaxGXL and Max International. He calls
his strategy the 3-foot rule. “If you get within three feet of me you’re going to hear about Max.” His advice to
people looking to recruit is, “Have passion and face your fears about talking to people. Go to everybody. We
have been given a gift. Don’t be afraid to open it and share with others.” Mike said achieving Gold is first in a
list of goals he has regarding MaxGXL. He thanked Rick Teague for sending the sample and his team, which
includes his brother Scott (who also went Gold this month) “for helping us achieve this goal.”

german Centeno, of Bueno Park, CA, has had a great month. In addition to
being our Top Associate Recruiter he was one of our Gold Associate advancements
for the month. He attributes his success to having a product that works, and
actually does what it says it will do, and a company that is unlike anything else in
the industry. German said having Spanish literature and training support has also
been a big part of his and other teammember’s success. German has seen the
health and wealth of friends and family members transformed by MaxGXL and Max
International. The American Dream is alive and well thanks to his experience here.
“Besides the exceptional product, we are helping many families. So I thank you.”
Jose escoto, Ontario, CA, said that advancing to Gold Associate was the result
of people helping people, which is what Max is all about. Jose was introduced to
Max International about six months ago through his cousin Adam Hudd. The timing
was perfect because he had recently lost a job in real estate and was looking for a
new source of income. But the thing that convinced him that Max was the company
for him was when his friends and family started taking MaxGXL. His sister, who
had a knee condition that required multiple surgeries, experienced strength she
hadn’t had in years. Another girl he knew was able to overcome an addiction to a
prescription medication after going on MaxGXL. When he saw things like this he
knew he’d found the company he wanted to associate himself with for the rest of
his life. Building a business that allows for financial freedom instead of trading hours for money, as he has
experienced in the past, has been a dream come true for him.
al greer, of San Antonio, TX, said an enthusiasm for the MaxGXL is the main
reason for his advancement to Gold Associate. “It’s a fun and rewarding business,”
Al said. “Be enthusiastic about what you are doing. Spread your enthusiasm around.
Enthusiasm is much like a social disease. It is highly contagious, but it’s okay to
spread it. Infect everyone you come in contact with. Start your own epidemic.” The
key, Al said, is to take small steps. They will eventually morph into giant steps.
“Learn to set goals for yourself, and be a strong advocate of supporting your team.
Where else can you help so many people improve their lives and build such great
personal relationships?” He said his advancement at Max is a team achievement
and whatever encouragement he gives his team is given back to him many times
over. “Success at Max is not an individual sport but a full-contact team sport.” He said there is no comparing
Max to other companies in his experience. Max looms about them in terms of products, compensation and
management.

Ceasar Macias, of Azusa, CA, said that he attributes much of his success to the
leadership and mentoring of Patrick Ryan. “Patrick has inspired my drive, dedication,
belief in the organization and in the network marketing industry as a whole.” Before
Max, Ceasar worked in such diverse areas as mentoring and coaching high school
athletes and management work with top 100 home builders. This has allowed him
to understand both the intellectual world of corporate gurus and the emotional
passion of athletic competition. His background serves him well with his diverse
Associates at Max. Ceasar believes his success at Max International is directly
linked to the integrity with which he approaches his business. He feels that, even
though nobody is perfect, striving for flawless integrity is every bit as important as
establishing flawless credit. By living a life of honesty, sound ethics and high morals you will naturally gain the
trust of the people you associate with. Crossing ethical and moral grounds has the opposite effect. You lose
that trust and regaining it can be painful and difficult. Ceasar feels that by paying attention to small details,
and remaining true to yourself and your fellow Associates, the big things take care of themselves.
dr. Johan gazali, of Los Angeles, CA, said with the combination of an incredible product like MaxGXL and a
marketing plan that is both easy to understand and explain to others, success is just a matter of opening your
mouth and doing the work. Dr. Gazali said that MaxGXL promotes health in an amazingly quick and effective
way. When you experience such positive results yourself it increases your confidence in sharing it with others.
Dr. Gazali’s advice to new recruits is to use teamwork to best advantage. By deferring to teammembers,
and making effective use of your upline’s expertise, everyone benefits. In this way, Associates can advance
more quickly and get additional motivation through the bonuses that result. With the health benefits that
come from taking Max International’s groundbreaking products and the financial benefits from a first-rate
compensation plan, it’s an opportunity unlike anything out there.
Chikako Takahashi, of Midvale, Utah, has come a long way from her humble
beginnings as a first generation immigrant to the United States from Japan. She
arrived here with very little money and virtually no network of friends in the U.S.
“Today life is good,” Chikako said. “I have friends all over the world, my income
is growing on a residual basis and I have a global network.” She said the thing
that made the difference for her was a caring mentor, effective partnering, loving
parents and a burning desire to “just do it.” Chikako had this to say to people just
starting out and those looking to advance, “Go for the Gold by never forgetting
where you came from, keeping your focus on your “why”, and consistently giving
back to the special few who care so much they reach out to teach you and help
you achieve your dreams. Believe in your dreams because I am a humble example that dreams do come true
and if I can do this, you can too.”

Jane and John Kikkert, of Kamloops, British Columbia, attributed
their advancement to a combination of factors including MaxGXL, the
company, their team support and hard work. They have seen the life
changing effects of MaxGXL on members of their group. “This generates
a compelling desire to tell others about the product,” said Jane. John
and Jane feel that the purpose and credo of Max International, along
with the experience and integrity of the owners and corporate staff,
make you want to be a part of something that is going to make a
difference in the world. Jane said that given the compensation plan,
the company, tools provided by the corporate management, and
invaluable upline support, success was almost inevitable. They also feel their downline, who have aligned
themselves with the company’s mission to make a positive difference in the lives of people, is a huge part
of their success. Their advice for new recruits is to first of all know you’ve come to the right company, to
work hard, keep a positive attitude, set goals, stay focused on them and be persistent. Two sayings they live
by are, “The only time success comes before work is in the dictionary” and “Success is more attitude than
aptitude.” Anyone who chooses to can be successful at Max.
scott unclebach, of Frisco, TX said that for the first few months he just slowly
built up his team, signing up people here and there. Then a friend and team
member, who had a lot of influence started spreading the word and things started
happening for the entire team. “You never know who you’re next superstar is
going to be,” Scott said. Not only did his friend become Silver but two other
people in his group advanced to Silver and Bronze in one month. Scott said he
was never a serious network marketer before coming to Max but the quality of
owners and management got him excited. He was completely sold when he started getting amazing results
from MaxGXL. “You have to be a believer in the product if you want to be a success. People easily recognize
your passion.” If you believe in it it will show through and other people will want the same physical benefit
and financial success, Scott said. His advice for new recruits and others looking to advance is to follow the
system and leadership. “If you keep telling people your story you will be a success.” He said going Gold lends
credibility to his team and shows it’s possible to get to this level in a short time. “Just like my team, which is
closing in on 400, you never know who is going to catch fire!”

Jim sweeny, of Afton, TN, is very fittingly known
in the industry as Mr. MLM. He has been working fulltime
in network marketing for 26 years and published the
first hardcover book on network marketing, MLM: A Shortcut
to Financial Freedom. Jim is writing another book now and has a popular
network marketing blog. He was one of the few people to have ever made a
million dollars in his first full year in network marketing. He has been involved
with Max International since August of 2007 but only got serious about it the
last few weeks, Jim said. He is able to build his business so quickly because
he focuses on the law of geometric growth. He focuses on depth rather than
width; width being personally sponsoring people vs. depth – helping those
you sponsor to duplicate your success. Not that he has anything against sponsoring people. He said he will
sponsor anyone and loves working with people. But the reason he is so effective at network marketing is he
is able to help others succeed by duplicating his methods. Jim said he is proud of what his son, Patrick Ryan,
has been able to accomplish with Max International. Patrick has put Jim’s principles into practice and built an
incredibly thriving business. “He is the reason I woke up and started working the business. I saw how well
he was doing.” When you add products like MaxGXL and Max WLX to the package you can’t go wrong. He’s
very excited about Max WLX because an innovative weight loss product has limitless potential. He made his
first million in network marketing with a weight loss product in fact. “The only way to fail in a company like
this is to give up.” Jim said he has never been as impressed with a company as he is with Max International.
“Max will break every record in the industry.”
susiana Berliarang is a full-time pharmacist. Her husband, Joseph, is a
full-time network marketer. They have been with Max International from the
beginning. Susiana has also worked for 18 years in product and marketing
development for one of the biggest companies in the world, L’Oreal Paris.
This, combined with her pharmaceutical work, puts her in a unique position to
understand what a powerful product MaxGXL truly is. When Susan and Joseph
met with the Max founders they immediately started preparing a plan for
marketing it. “My background helped me understand how this product works
and gave me more confidence to explain it to all the paramedics.” Susiana said
that, backed by a patented product like MaxGXL and an amazing compensation
plan, she took Max International to her colleagues and challenged them to be
united in marketing the product and making their dreams for a better tomorrow come true. Getting to this
advancement has been challenging and we’ve had to overcome obstacles. Susiana said she wants to thank
her sponsor Ken Dunn for his enthusiasm and encouragement that things will continue to improve, and to
Sue Schell for her dedication and patience in solving all the administrative problems. To all of her friends
she said they can make a decision to withdraw as a result of adversity or take advantage of their early start
opportunity and use adversity as a stairway to success.

When rick and Michelle Teague, of Mansfield, Texas, visited Max
International the week after Thanksgiving 2007, it was serious business.
Rick had exchanged 9 years of college, 2 law degrees and a successful
legal practice for a 24-year career in network marketing, and it was the sole
source of income for their family of five. Beyond this, network marketing
was the only “career” that Michelle had since high school, even though she
also spends considerable time home schooling their children and running
the “domestic division” of their household.
Consequently, joining a particular company was never done casually, as a
hobby, or without considerable calculation, discussion and due diligence.
Further, for multiple reasons Rick and Michelle were intensely looking for their final company on this trip to
Max – aligning with a company they could build “one more time, for the last time” was their absolute highest
priority. After two full days of meeting with Steve Scott, Greg Fullerton and Fred Ninow, as well as the entire
Max management team, and asking them every hard question they could, Rick and Michelle knew they had
found what they were searching for. In fact, they felt so strongly that Max was the company they had been
looking for (for the last 24 years), that Michelle was moved to tears several times.
At that point, they urgently went to work and 6 short months later achieved Diamond with the help of
an incredible team, company and upline. Although naming all the people that have contributed to this
achievement is not possible because of space limitations, it has truly been a group effort, and Rick and
Michelle look forward to helping hundreds of others on their team climb to the same rank or higher!
steve Lee, of Honolulu, HI said that his advancement is a direct reflection of
great team work. “I’m grateful for leaders like Steven Kent, Ray Sukhu and many
others. I couldn’t have done it without them. We have a great team with lots of
dedicated leaders.”
Steve said this is a relationship-based business. You find success when you
treat people like you want to be treated, with love, understanding and respect.
Another key factor, Steve said, is that Max’s products flat out work. “We just need
to let people know about it. We have one of the best compensation plans in the
business. This will attract top caliber leaders.”
Steve said using the tools will build your business. He has personally sponsored over 100 people using mainly
the Max videos on his website. “It works!” He said that a proven formula for him has been: Invitations +
Follow Up = Income.
“Be the best inviters you can be. Spend 90 percent of your time each day inviting people to check out the
Max Video on your website. Follow up with lots of three-way calls.”
Steve said he abides by the moto: “If it is to be, it is always up to me!”
