UPDATE, 5/12/2014: Brent Burnett recently advanced to the rank of Team Director! Read the spotlight/interview below, conducted shortly after Brent became Team Manager. Congratulation Brent!
---------------------------------------------

Team Manager Brent Burnett has been one of 2013's most consistent business builders here in North America. His passion for the Synergy opportunity and the art of network marketing is reflected in his ongoing list of accomplishments. He is currently qualified to be taken to Cancun on Synergy's dime. He was awarded $1500 toward his trip to Korea for the Global Summit, which he attended and enjoyed very much. He has maximized his bonuses on the Elite Track several times, earning thousands of extra dollars on top of his commissions. He advanced to the rank of Team Manager and was therefore invited to attend the 2013 Leadership Academy in Park City along with his wife Charlene. He wins monthly prizes, he is focused on his Team, and he shares the Synergy Advantage wherever he goes.

While interviewing Brent, it quickly became apparent that he is an exemplary student. His retention of the trainings from the various events of this year was remarkable. You can tell he internalizes the things he learns and puts them into practice, which explains why he's been able to rack up points in the Top 50 Challenge, advance his rank and successfully increase his income.

Ever willing to learn and ever willing to share his knowledge, Brent was good enough to give us some of his time and share the following advice and experiences:

A few days ago, KSL News of Salt Lake reported on a local high school football coach who nearly lost his life due to heart problems. Mr. John Hunter, a former NFL athlete, spent 11 days in a coma, having to be brought back to life three different times. He woke up and started on a road to recovery, successful so far thanks to medical professionals, a supportive community, and what John describes as "miracles."

"I'm glad to be here," John told Synergy in an interview conducted earlier today. "I'm about to celebrate my ninth wedding anniversary with my wife, and she is tickled to death that I'm here to celebrate it with her."

If you find yourself trying to get a soccer ball past Katherine Lynch, you are going to have your work cut out for you. Katherine, a senior at Montgomery High School in New Jersey, already has a few championships under her belt and she's looking for more. Katherine is currently in the running for the title of New Jersey's "Best Defender" because she plays hard, she plays smart, and she stays healthy.

Her mother, Synergy Team Member Dr. Teresa Lynch, believes in sharing the benefits of Synergy products with everyone, especially her family. For this reason, Katherine has the opportunity to experience Synergy supplements on a regular basis, and realize the great ways they affect her day and her soccer game.

Synergy WorldWide: What do you love most about soccer?
Katherine Lynch: It’s just something I love to do. I love the feeling it gives me when I play. It takes me away from stress. You just play, having fun with your best friends.

As you may know, the SLMsmart weight-management system was introduced in North America in April of this year. More recently, at the 2013 Global Summit in Korea, SLMsmart was again launched, this time for the Korean market. As part of the Korean launch, Synergy produced a new video to introduce the product line and to tell the world that the smartest weight management system has finally arrived. Enjoy this new video below:

As you start this new week with just 10 days left in this month, it's a good time to review your goals,  renew your efforts and answer the following questions:

Have you doubled your Fast Start Bonus yet this month? Sponsor at least 3 new Team Members in a month and Synergy will DOUBLE your Fast Start Bonuses for each of them. Synergy will do this for up to 5 new Team Members each month, so earn that bonus and enjoy the long-term rewards that follow!

Did you earn an extra 500 points towards Cancun? Each Team Member that sponsors at least 3 new people each month gets, not only the doubled Fast Start Bonus, they will also be awarded an extra 500 points for the Top 50 Challenge! Remember, the Top 50 Challenge exists to provide you with monthly prizes and even an unforgettable trip to Cancun! Speaking of which...

Cancun is going to be awesome! Are you going? If at the end of the year you are in the Top 50, with at least 10,000 points, then the answer is "YES!" You will be eligible and invited to come with Synergy to the Moon Palace Golf & Spa resort, and Synergy will pick up the tab*! For more details on the trip, and specifics on how to get there, click here.



As of this morning, the Top 50 leaderboards have been updated. Be sure to check your standings and do what you have to do to secure your spot!

*Each qualified account will be given $500 to be used towards airfare. The additional cost to arrive in Cancun will be the responsibility of the qualified Team Member. Upon arrival at the resort, Synergy will cover food, accommodations and company sponsored activities.  

Double Presidential Mark Comer, one of Synergy's top earners and most successful business builders, is always willing to give expert advice and share his remarkable story. The many Team Members who tuned into the Corporate Update Call earlier in the week heard him specifically mention the importance of events in the course of his career. Following the call, we asked him to elaborate on the subject. This is what he said:

"Believe me, I've been with Synergy for a long time, and I've seen it over and over again. Events inspire people to build, and people build for events. Just think about Korea. That market started with  just a handful of people going to little local events, and now at the summit, there were over 4000 people.

Events help us in more ways than we even realize. I like feeling the vibe at an event, and then using that to figure out what I need to do next. I'm always telling people to look for events to attend, even if it takes some travel. Great things just start happening when you attend."

For over 67 years, medical specialists across the world have turned to the Physicians' Desk Reference (PDR) as the authoritative source of information on drugs and prescribed substances. Synergy is pleased to announce that ProArgi-9+ will be included in the 2014 edition of the PDR, providing a new opportunity for people to discover the tremendous benefits of our best-selling product.

Found in virtually every physician's office, pharmacy, clinic and library, no medical reference is more current, more recognized, or more respected. The PDR contains label information, dosage instructions, images and more.

We hope this publicity encourages more people to discover and share ProArgi-9+ and its value in supporting a healthy lifestyle.

Note: The 2014 Edition of the Physicians' Desk Reference containing information about ProArgi-9+ will be made available this December in both digital and physical versions.

One month ago today, we posted a video and introduction to our 2014 Cancun vacation destination. Hopefully that inspired a series of daydreams for you, dreams in which you find yourself on those sandy beaches with the sun on your face and a tropical beverage in your hand.

Synergy North America Team Members: There are still three months left to qualify! Those dreams are within reach— let us help you make them a reality!

In these last three months, as you push yourself to qualify, here are a few fun facts about Cancun to keep you motivated:

Earlier today, Dr. Rainer Böger called from Germany to be joined by a large number of listeners. As this month's Cardio Call special guest, he explained ProArgi-9+ and the way it acts in the body. If you were unable to join the call don't worry— the call has been recorded and you can listen to it here at your convenience.

Dr. Böger on ADMA

Some of the major achievements of Dr. Böger's career involve his research on asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) as a risk marker of vascular disease. In today's Cardio Call, he took time to address the subject of ADMA and a misunderstanding that is becoming all too common in the industry.

Synergy WorldWide offers our sincere congratulations to the following Team Members throughout North America. Thank you for your efforts, accomplishments and example. We look forward to seeing your success continue throughout the rest of 2013 and beyond.

A huge thank you to leaders and staff in Korea who organized a monumental event that will go down in Synergy WorldWide history. This extraordinary team created the perfect atmosphere in which to congratulate Team Members for their hard-earned advancements.
