Internet Marketing Tips - Purchasing a Domain
This week's tip comes from a reader asking "What do I need to know about registering a website address or domain name?"
Did you know:
It is important to take into consideration others’ business names and trademarks when you choose a website or domain name. Just because a domain name is available, it does not mean you are allowed to use it. You could face legal action and an otherwise avoidable headache by using someone else’s name – or even a website or domain name that is too similar to someone else’s name. You don’t want to be accused of trying to deceptively gain customers at someone else’s expense.
Tips:
When choosing website or domain names, be creative! Just because you cannot use a certain name for a website, come up with something that's unique and catchy (and doesn't infringe on an existing trademark or other intellectual property right). Conduct searches of the web (you can do this through the search engine on your Portal) to make sure your chosen name isn’t already in use and check out the relevant intellectual property databases, such as the one on the United States Patent & Trademark website. You'll save yourself a world of headache in having to deal with any legal issues that may come up otherwise.
Remember: Market America distributors should consult their Career Manual to ensure that they are following all the Company’s Internet policies.
Sincerely,
Your Internet Marketing Manager
If you have questions about this, feel free to send an email to internetmarketing@marketamerica.com.

Probiotics for Kids
A new study from Danisco provides data supporting the use of probiotics, specifically the strains of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, in reducing cold and flu-like symptoms in children. Three-hundred and twenty-five children, ages 3-5 years old, were given the single L. acidophilus NCFM strain, the combination of the strains, or placebo for 6 months. Researchers not only noticed reductions in the incidence in fever, coughing, and runny noses, but also fewer need for the use of antibiotics and fewer days missed from the child care facility. This report strengthens the role of probiotics in immune health. To read more about the study published in Pediatrics, click the link below.

12 Days of Optimal Health - Isotonix Vitamin D with K2
Over the past year, its been hard to miss the frequent news stories of expanding research on the role of vitamin D in maintaining health. Vitamin D is best known for its important role in bone health, but we are learning that this multifunctional vitamin may play a role in immune health, heart health, breast health, emotional health and much more! We have also learned that most Americans are deficient in vitamin D!
While Market America's Isotonix® Vitamin D with K2 contains 5,000 IUs of vitamin D per serving, it also contains the less familiar vitamin K2.
Vitamin K is included in Isotonix Vitamin D with K2 because of its unique partnership with vitamin D. Vitamins K and D work together to support calcium absorption and utilization. Vitamin K supports the normal delivery of calcium to the bones and promotes healthy arteries.*
At least two naturally-occurring forms of vitamin K have been identified and are known as K1 and K2. While there are many similarities between these two forms of vitamin K, they are distinguished by their important differences. The most significant difference between K1 and K2 is their chemical structure which results in different pharmacokinetic properties. Vitamin K1 is retained primarily in the liver where, at high doses, it may interfere with the action of warfarin and other anticoagulant medications.*
Vitamin K2 has a different mechanism of action. It is transported primarily to bones and blood vessels. Vitamin K2 helps to maintain bone mass, support calcium utilization and promote elasticity of blood vessels.*

Motives by Loren Ridinger is featured on two popular beauty blogs for its amazing color offerings and the smooth feel on the skin once applied. The blog Sicka Than Average posted a glowing review of the Motives Pressed Eye Shadows, saying “the crease-proof shadows have the perfect pearlescent quality and come in a wide range of intriguing hues.” The writer went on to confess that she feels like a star of a Bollywood film when wearing the Pressed Eye Shadows and says Green Apple reminds her of Angelina Jolie in Mr & Mrs. Smith.

Get to Know The Creative Mind Behind Siete: Q&A with Alejandro Sanz
Alejandro Sanz is known as one of the world’s most successful musicians, having won multiple Grammy Awards and sold more than 25 million albums internationally. Recently, the Spanish born singing sensation has moved into a new arena, that of personal fragrance. Simply named Siete-- Spanish for seven-- both the men’s and women’s scents are a unique blend of seven scent notes, a playful nod to the seven notes of the musical scale.
Market America is thrilled to now offer both the men’s and women’s versions of Siete on www.marketamerica.com. In honor of the occasion, we asked Alejandro to share some of his thoughts on Siete.
Why did you make the decision to create a personal fragrance?
It was something that just suddenly occurred to me and I was drawn to the idea from the start. I’m a man of sense and feeling [and] the sense of smell is as important as any other. People’s fragrance says a lot about them... it’s a non-verbal language that has a lot to say.
Siete stands for the seven notes of the musical scale and for the seven scent notes found in the fragrance. How else is siete a reflection of you or your music?
The number seven has been my favorite since I was a child. Besides the seven notes of the scale, there are seven deadly sins, Seven Wonders of the World, seven days in the week... seven is a number that is present in no end of things.
How involved were you in the creation of Siete?
I smelled a number of essences and I wanted to capture the scents of my childhood. Scents from important personal moments, the scent of sensuality, of authenticity, the scent of my essence.
What inspires you both in music and in the creation of a fragrance?
Life itself is my greatest inspiration. When you feel alive and receptive to life, feelings flow and automatically become art.
Experience Siete for yourself! Take advantage of special pricing on Siete when you purchase from the "Hot Deals" tab on Alejandro's My World featured artist page, or from marketamerica.com!

Important research on aging!
While surfing around on the internet this week I found some really interesting information on factors that contribute to aging. I know we're all going to get older, but I think we all want to look great and feel great in the process. So, when I found this information, I knew I had to pass it along.
It appears that research is pointing to a relatively new factor which may play a part in accelerating the aging process. Advanced glycation end products (known by their very clever acronym, AGEs) bind tissues together by a process called "cross-linking" making tissues throughout the body deformed, inflexible and dysfunctional. A study in the Journal Glycobiology hypothesizes that the accumulation of AGEs plays a role in a number of conditions including diabetes, inflammation and neurodegeneration.
Stay tuned for more information on the latest science and how you can stay healthy and live well!

Advanced glycation end products (known by their very clever acronym, AGEs) bind tissues together by a process called "cross-linking" making tissues throughout the body deformed, inflexible and dysfunctional. A study in the Journal Glycobiology hypothesizes that the accumulation of AGEs plays a role in a number of conditions including diabetes, inflammation and neurodegeneration.
Stay tuned for more information on the latest science and how you can stay healthy and live well!

To supplement or not to supplement
In speaking to many of you at the Tradeshow this year, a lot of you were confused about what pet supplements are best for your pets and which pet supplement was the most important.
For happy, healthy dogs and cats it is important to take them to the vet on a regular basis, keep them up to date on their vaccinations, keep their teeth clean, keep their ears clean and dry, feed them a good quality pet food, give them plenty of water and plenty of exercise.
A supplement is designed to be added to the diet on a regular basis to make up for any deficiencies, improve the overall health and vitality of pets or to aid in targeting a specific health issue. Not all pets need a supplement – to determine if a supplement would be beneficial consider the following: Are they eating a high quality pet food? Do they have a soft shiny coat? Do they have healthy skin? Do they adapt well to stress? Do they have normal energy levels? Pets that obtain adequate amounts of vitamins and minerals through a proper diet and supplementation, if needed, tend to have a healthier coat, normal energy levels, a stronger ability to adapt to stress and stressful situations and improved overall health and well-being.
Key vitamins and minerals are essential to maintain optimal health in your pet. Some key factors that effect a dog or cat’s ability to absorb nutrients from food includes age, activity level, environment, genetics and breed. Because of the unique nutritional requirements of cats and dogs, even high quality pet foods cannot fulfill the unique nutritional requirements of every individual pet. High quality pet foods do however, meet the majority of pet’s nutritional needs. Supplementing a pet’s diet can help bridge the nutritional gap between what dogs and cats need at every stage in their life and what they actually obtain and absorb from their diet.
Something else to consider is that some breeds are more prone to certain health issues. For example many breeds are known for having cardiovascular issues, among those are American Cocker Spaniels, Bouvier des Flandres, Border Terriers, Bulldogs, Chihuahuas, Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, Dachshunds, Doberman Pinschers, Golden Retrievers, Great Danes, Irish Setters, Keeshonds, Miniature Poodles, Miniature Schnauzers, Newfoundlands, Pomeranians, Pugs, Saint Bernards, Shetland Sheepdogs, Smooth Fox Terriers, Toy Poodles and Wire Fox Terriers. For a better listing of health issues for specific breeds check out this site.
For a solid micronutrient foundation, Market America offers PetHealth Multivitamin Formula for Dogs and PetHealth Multivitamin Formula for Cats. For an antioxidant defense, respiratory health, and joint health and support, Market America offers PetHealth OPC Formula with Glucosamine for Dogs & Cats. For cardiovascular health and support, Market America offers PetHealth Cardiovascular Formula for Dogs.

In the spotlight
As we pause for a moment to recognize UFOs, new Pin Levels, as well as all of our new Challenge Winners, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on all the Convention news thus far.
- Steve Ashley talked about the new UnLabel program in conjunction with Conquer Entertainment, that will act as an independent "record label" of sorts to benefit both emerging artists and existing UFOs.
- Steven Lamm was certainly a standout on the Doctors Panel, announcing the focus of his new book: the absence of illness does not mean you are well.
- We had Marty Weissman and Tanya Smith talking about the remarkable new products we are launching, plus they gave an in-depth glimpse as to all the work and quality practices we have in place during the entire product development process.
- Coming up next is Loren Ridinger and Marc Ashley in the sequal to their amazing presentation yesterday on all the new enhancements to marketamerica.com.

One Crazy Morning
After taking in an entire hour of Loren and Marc unveiling the most fascinating updates to marketamerica.com (log on now, they're live!), JR just got on stage and the house erupted. There's nothing like it folks...
3 Great New Products
Just in case you couldn’t make it to International Convention 2009, I wanted to give you the opportunity to check out a few of our new products being launched this year.
The first is the new Autoworks™ Fuel Enhancer (code 6538 in the U.S. and C6538 in Canada). Autoworks Fuel Enhancer is a multifaceted approach to fuel treatment, cleaning key engine parts: carburetors, fuel injectors, intake valves and combustion chambers, as well as decreasing the molecular size of fuel particles to create a more complete burn – resulting in a more efficient use of fuel and less uncombusted solid waste.
Regular use of Autoworks Fuel Enhancer can improve gas mileage by up to 15 percent, helps to reduce harmful emissions and restores lost engine power. So before you embark on any end-of-the-summer vacations, order a bottle of Autoworks Fuel Enhancer and give your car (and your wallet) a little stability.
We are also expanding the Snap line of laundry care products to include the new Snap Free & Clear Laundry Detergent (code 6228 in the U.S. and C6228 in Canada) and Snap Free & Clear Fabric Softener (code 6229 in the U.S. and C6229 in Canada). The new Snap Free & Clear line is a hypoallergenic alternative to laundry care featuring formulas that are free of dyes and perfumes. So if you are looking for a hypoallergenic laundry detergent and fabric softener, order these two great products today.

Wrapping Up Thursday
Sitting here, taking in the last presentation of the day, it's amazing how much information has been presented to the crowd of more than 25,000 people. It's been a long day, yet every seat in the house still has a butt in it. What in the world could keep that many people so engaged for the past 8 hours? Belief. Desire. Opportunity.
Can't wait to see what's in store for tomorrow.

Wanna save $$$?
A crowd favorite, Kevin Buckman, is up on stage this second talking about becoming debt free with the new ma Capital Resources program. One real-life example he gave was an individual who would have paid $255,000 in interest over a 28-year period, but instead will save $200,000 of that by paying it off in just 10 years!...all through ma Capital Resources. Guess that $200 ticket to Convention was really an opportunity to learn how to save some major money. Make sure to stay tuned in for more on this one...
And we're off!
We're just a little over an hour into the 2009 International Convention, and there have already been some MAJOR announcements, including Jeremy Fennema's introduction of the ma WebCenter Internship Program and the new Global WebCenters. Here is a vivid example of how to grow your business through these new programs. Dani Canubus levereaged the Internship Program to add a huge group as seen pictured above. Unfortunately, if you're not here, you'll have to play some serious catch-up to learn about these incredible innovations.
