"You will notice that the Evolv web site has all of its information visible, including scientifically proven results, real doctors and proof that people who consume at least 3 bottles of evolv a day have significantly less health problems than those that drink bad water.Actually Katie, that's not exactly true."
Yeah, not really lol...
Nowhere on the Evolv site is their address readily available. Instead they had a form you can fill out so that you can send them an email. That's not a very good way to make people feel confident that you are ready and willing to communicate with them. I'm not trying to pick on you, but did you actually know if any of those things you said is actually true?
This is about as "scientific" as it gets on the Evolv site:
"The Evolv water product and Evolv gel contain an all natural, proprietary formula called archaea active. There is a very interesting story behind the creation of Evolv Health, which includes the company’s involvement with a major third party biotechnology company named Futureceuticals"
Katie, no disrespect, but this is what we here in the MLM Repspace community use a very special term for, and its called: "Bullshit". There is no such thing as "archaea active" as anything other than a fantasy ingredient in relation to evolv. It's the equivelent of me mixing whey protein with kool aid powder and naming it "Wheyoxidaid Particles", then jamming it in some bottled fruit juice and designing a cool new label. A bit harsh, but you seem to throw around the word "science" a bit too loosely.
In regard to Xowii and Evolv getting together, I can't decide whether I think this is a good thing for them or a bad thing. I just read a press article about it which had Evolv Health saying that the planned transaction is consistent with it’s previously stated strategy of exploring more opportunities that strengthen it’s Evolv business model. It was more or less business speak for saying they found a way to make money together. It basically means that some 20,000 Xowii distributors will be able to trade names and suggestions for Evolv and vice versa, possibly even packaging products together or adding Evolv water to Xowii products and boosting the price a bit, or a lot, we'll see.
According to Trey White, the chairman of EvolvHealth, the company looks forward to welcoming Richard Kelly, James Christiansen, Josh Higginbotham, and all of XOWii's distributors to the Evolv family. I wonder if this suggests that XOWii was somehow going down the tubes and Evolv found a means by which to boost profits with their product.
"Our goal was to expand our health offering in 2011 and XOWii had exactly what we were looking for, and much more. This new partnership is an exciting opportunity to reach new consumers and representatives and to generate significant growth for 2011 and beyond.” -Trey White
Either way, Xowii had a pretty strong launch just half a month before Evolv and managed to rake in $15 million. At least the new combined management claims that its 90 Day Challenge program which was pretty successful for Xowii will be introduced to all distributors of the combined company, so it will include Evolv. Another thing stated by Brent Hicks, the CEO of Evolv is that the joinign companies will be able to expand into Canada, Mexico and eventually Colombia. It never occured to me that there was a strong market for this kind of stuff in Columbia, but I guess you learn something new every day.
I'm still wondering if one or both companies weren't doing quite as well as projected and decided to try to team up in order to stay afloat. Maybe one or more of their products weren't going to last much longer without some type of counter component. I'm curious to keep an eye on this and see what happens over the next year or so. I also wonder if the distributors are happy about the change, and in what ways it affects them.
Will you be willing to share your thoughts on this Katie, and were you aware that the combination of these two companies has the potential to rewrite specific guidelines in your compensation plan?
