***Product News - Special Notice***

Tropicana Body Milk Unavailable

A recent drop in the quality of coconut oil supplied to us and used in the manufacture of our Tropicana Body Milk has resulted in a decision to remove existing stock from distribution effective today.Compromising product quality is not an option and ONE Group is committed to using only the highest quality ingredients available.

We are actively sourcing a new supplier and anticipate the reintroduction of a newly formulated Tropicana Body Milk later this year.We have removed the Tropicana from the Shopping Cart and an announcement will be made once the new formula is available.

We are sorry for this inconvenience and invite you to experience our Intensive Body Cream - featuring certified organic shea butter and the exquisite scent of amber - as an alternative.

New ONE Group Company Overview in Back Office

In case you haven't been lurking around in your Member's Area lately, there is a new/updated resource for us to use called, "ONE Group Enterprise Profile (Nov. 07)." It is found under Marketing Tools, Company Overview beneath the Organic & Natural Living Newspaper.

WHEN TO USE:
When you have a prospect interested in the opportunity, I personally recommend sending this document in an attachment. If in person, you may print it out. (Not sure if OG will print to sell). It is only 8 pages, so you could print front and back for 4 pages. I think it is a lovely presentation and best of all - it has CURRENT information! :-)

Other resources to give Representative prospects to help them make informed decisions about the opportunity:

1) The link to your mienterprize.com website for the 5 minute overview.
2) The link to your mionegroup.com/earn section which details everything.
3) Access to the Member's Area (please email me if you don't have this information)
4) YouTube videos from conferences, from Alf, Narelle, etc.
5) 3-Way into Conference Calls
6) 3-Way with Your Sponsor/Upline


To your success~

Blessings,
Candy

Fund-raising
We are pleased to announce some pilot programs are in process by co-creators Melissa Trevorrow and Denise Crilley from Melbourne Australia. Based on their own experiences of their children's fund-raising through schools and groups, they have based the system on traditional fund-raising systems already used, such as chocolate drives etc.; so no further education is required about the system itself, as fundraisers are already familiar with it.

Marketing
The focus for the company in 2008 are the key areas of Leadership and Marketing. Alf outlined at the North American Conference the plan to select key Senior Executives in the company to assist to train all Representatives in important areas such as Network Marketing and Team Building, Retail Strategy, Fundraising, MiSales and MiSpa. This face to face training covering many countries will give everyone the opportunity to gain valuable insight and tips as to how to work on their business and assist their teams achieve great success through their chosen strategies.

The Directors announced 2008 travel plans for North America which included a tour by Alf in March and then by Colin and Narelle in October. Regular tours throughout the year will also be conducted by executives and Ron Tracy. Five executives are being selected as part of the 2008 Leadership Program and each of them will conduct an Australian/Asia Pacific Tour, a North American Tour and UK tour. Details of these tours by the Directors and Executives will be released soon.

A big part of the leadership focus is to keep in regular communication with everyone and to this end monthly conference calls will be held by the Directors for Executives in specific regions - Japan, US, UK, and Australia .

From the marketing angle, we're looking forward to the addition of more fire power to trumpet the brilliance of our products; of which their uniqueness, potency and effectiveness are unparalleled in the world. To drive this new emphasis, a Marketing Manager position is being created to lead our newly structured marketing department. This will provide you with dynamic business building resources such as:

* Press Releases
* Industry related print, audio and video media exposure
* Product and business advertising templates for Representative use
* Internet landing pages specific to key products
* Conference video clip excerpts - perfect for e-mailing
* Product and Business building You Tube training videos
* Robust conference call schedules and online training options
* Presentation folders for MiSpa, MiFundraiser and Retail Strategies.
* Much, much more...

Our intention is to make the Miessence, MiVitality and MiEnviron brands household names across the globe by giving you the resources you need to grow your own successful ONE Group business.

Weekly Team Update (11/28/07)

Dearest Fellow Organic Entrepreneurs,

Well, it has been awhile since I have sent out a weekly team update, and I certainly do apologize for the delay! I hope this finds you all happy and healthy and getting ready for the joyous holiday season.

There is much to tell as I haven’t even had a chance to share the highlights of the North American Conference with all of you yet. But instead of overwhelming you with massive details, I am going to put some “bites” of information in here for you and then host a conference call next week to elaborate on things and answer any questions.

----

Conference Highlights

· New Travel Size Products are coming! (and they are darling J)
· New MiOrganic Future Website (if you want to see the demo, click HERE)
· Retail is returning in 2008 and Fundraising will definitely be worth the long awaited release!
· New Executive team will travel for training and seminars around North America
· Some new packaging is coming in plastic – but is better than glass and more eco-friendly!

Meeting Narelle was truly the highlight of the trip – and Colin too. (I had met Alf several times prior to the conference) Both are so lovely and dedicated and passionate about the cause, the mission and the solution. Just being in the same room with them, you couldn’t help but feel a twinge in your heart and soul that, “yes, I am on the right path.”

Also meeting Anne and Arun, Senior Executives from Australia, was a real treat for me. They were a wealth of knowledge and steadfast in their business building with tried and true methods that were beautiful in their simplicity.

If you didn’t see it in the ONE Group Newsletter, I received an award for being “The most enterprising Representative,” which was quite an honor! As a gift, I received one full year of being carbon neutral! :-)

Cheryl Rounds, my sponsor, and I had a lovely time visiting the islands and window shopping. I took quite a few pictures but have yet to have them all posted online to share. The scenery was gorgeous there – this was my first time to the west coast – and though the smoke from the fires prevented me from seeing the ocean from my balcony, one night we went in barefoot. Needless to say… brrrrrrr!!! (As I grew up in Florida, this chilly ocean was not something I was expecting!! If you could have seen how fast I ran out of the water, you would have probably fallen over from the outrageous belly laugh! )

I would have to say that all in all, it was quite a thrilling experience. Putting faces to the voices that I had heard for years was exciting. Learning all the various ways each representative builds their business – but with this incredible common denominator of dedication and devotion to the products and mission….

Well darnit, I said I wasn’t going to go on and on and look what I am doing! LOL!

-----
The Beautiful Narelle

We all know from pictures, and some of from the face to face meetings, that Narelle is just a stunningly beautiful woman. We also know based on this company, that she is a beautiful person inside as well.

I wanted to share this story with you as it truly touched my heart.

About two months ago I emailed Narelle about the prices of our products. Though I don’t see price as an obstacle to success in our business, I did see it as an obstacle to helping EVERYONE who would benefit from going organic. I wrote her an email explaining the poverty situation here in the United States. Much to my surprise, she wasn’t aware that it is more affordable to purchase 4 boxes of mac and cheese instead of one bunch of broccoli.

I told her empathetically of how my neighbor’s 2 year old son is being slathered in chemicals – yet, I am helpless to provide an affordable solution for the child with the prices of the soaps and shampoos well out of reach. I explained how this young, single mother was so attuned to hearing my lectures on avoiding chemicals and wanted the best for her son. (It truly was a turning point in my life to watch a young mother begin to cry as she realized what she was putting on her son’s developing body.)

I can’t say that I was surprised to receive Narelle’s concerned reply, because I knew that she was a kind and loving person, but I didn’t expect her to tell me she would try to figure out a way to create a more affordable product, and yet, that is exactly what she did. Just yesterday I received an email from her telling me she has begun work on the new product line. She is going to see if she can’t create a soap/shampoo all in one that would be affordable for ALL to use.

I can’t tell you how proud I am to be a part of this company. I can only say that I believe we are all guided to this destiny – or perhaps destiny is to final a word – I believe we are guided on this “journey” to make a huge difference in the world. Young, old, small, tall, black, white, rich or poor… we have a moral responsibility to spread the word of organics to anyone who will listen. You just never know the lives you will impact along the way!

Together… (you, me, Narelle and all of us with ONE Group)…we can make a difference!!

My New Role with ONE Group

Several weeks of negotiations with the Directors and Ron Tracy have resulted in my acquisition of Ron's former ONE Group business centers. Prior to assuming his current role, Ron was successful in building a team to the level of Managing Executive and I now have the honor and opportunity to work directly with this exciting team.

As for all of you on my existing team, I am still here as your sponsor and upline and nothing within those dynamics will change. If you have questions or concerns, feel free to email or call me anytime!


------

Holiday Emails for Your Preferred Customers – HURRY!

Have you sent out a notification to your Preferred Customers yet about the holiday shipping deadline? If not – you need to do that ASAP!

Be sure to include ideas for gifts with the ONE Group product line such as gift sets or baskets or coupling of products. For example; “Men’s Gift Set”, (include shaving essentials, etc. ) “Winter Weather Gift Set” (include jaffa lip balm, nourishing hand cream, reflect outdoor balm… ) “Pampering Spa Basket” (include facial products such as the ambrosia essence which has ingredients from around the world, garnet exfoliant with actual gemstones and purifying mask with exotic clay from New South Wales….etc.)

If you would like to get more ideas together for this – you may contact me this week to brainstorm, but remember… TIME IS LIMITED!! There are only about two weeks left for guaranteed holiday delivery!!

------

Holiday Cards ARE Important

Don’t forget that your EXISTING Preferred Customers are your investment! It is a great idea this holiday season to send them a warm thank you for their patronage.

Affordably you can send homemade postcards that you personalize. Check any office supply store for cute holiday pre-printed cards that you can personalize or go plain and make your own! *Always, always, always personally sign your name (don’t use printer) and or a small message to the customer!

If you don’t have a lot of customers, simply send them a greeting card from a boxed set. And remember – next year you WILL have a LOT more!! :-)

------

Groupie Conference Call – Where are all the Organic people???

Do you feel like you are at a standstill, not because you don’t know how to talk about the products, but you just don’t have anyone to talk about them to? Do you feel like you don’t know where to look or perhaps you have overturned every rock and still not a single person is there wanting to go organic?

Well - join us for our team Groupie Call next week to discuss some vital marketing strategies that you may not know about - or do know about and just aren’t getting the desired results.


Wednesday, December 5th at 9:00 PM EST
Call in: (641) 297-7200 Pin: 628483#


Need a Reminder? Click HERE to request an email reminder the day before the call!


Thank you for everything you do!

Until then…

Have a beautiful week!

Many Blessings,

Important News and Updates

Customer Service Update
Due to an influx of orders over the last week there might be a slight delay in your order being dispatched from the warehouse. We also advise that because of this there may be a delay in response from the Customer Service team to emails that have been sent to Head Office but they are working hard to have a response to you all as soon as possible. Again we thank you for your patience and support. The ONE Group Team.

Website Issues
If you have any pay-per-click ads running and pointing directly to your OG site, it would be in your best interest to pause them for awhile. The site is experiencing intermittent issues. ONE Group is working around the clock to make sure this problem is resolved.

MiSpa Packets in Back Office
If you haven't had a chance to review the new MiSpa packets, please do so. I know you will be pleasantly surprised at the professional appeal, the layout and the comprehensive step by step instructions. There will be a call Wednesday night to launch the program. However, you will not be able to ask questions directly. Due to the anticipated high participation on this call, it is advised that you first review all the new literature on the MiSpa Party and then email questions in advance to shelley at onegrp.com.

$3,000 for Holiday Shopping?
Typically summer is a slow time for party plan companies - but it doesn't have to be that way! Follow the guidelines in the MiSpa literature to start your bookings TODAY for fall! Wouldn't it be nice to have a couple parties in Sept - November and have a nice holiday bonus? With the new MiSpa Party Plan - you CAN!

Groupie Call Tuesday Night
Just a reminder that there will be a Groupie Call Tuesday night at 8:00 pm EST. This will be a highly informative call that recaps the ONE Group Australian Conference and the new products and programs. Please mark your calendars!

Fourth of July
Don't forget to send an email or card to wish your customers a Happy 4th! Be sure to mention the new products!

Let's Succeed Together!
