WOW ... what a Home Business ! - Sales of URI International The Feast Explode in AUSTRALIA ... Massive Growth as I build the first International team

"Within 6 to 12 months [with URI's Rapid Global Expansion Program] we could literally be in ONE HUNDRED countries"
... Brett Rademacher, Wednesday July 16, 2008

Boy, have I been sitting on a secret these last few months !!

... It's called, "How to open up a brand NEW COUNTRY to the Best On-Line Home Business Opportunity in the World, ... with the help of the VERY BEST in Whole Food Nutrition Supplements, ... THE FEAST, BEYOND BERRIES and The Feast SUPERCHARGED"

The problem was that, while events were unfolding, for strategic reasons I could not share all the details of the secret. You can imagine my GREAT RELIEF at the official BREAKING NEWS today by the makers of The Feast, Uri International:

"URI corporate will be making announcement Wednesday [July 16, 2008]
that AUSTRALIA and New Zealand are officially opened.
Much thanks to Harold Kamperman, Paul A. and their team for
their hard work moving this forward." [Urilife inhouse email]

"So, Harold, what has been happening these last two months?", you ask, "And why did URI International decide to focus its first International Expansion, outside of the USA and Canada, on Australia and New Zealand instead of markets more close to home such as Mexico, Europe or the very lucrative Japanese market?"

Well, let me ask you: "Have you ever seen sales of a product in an established conventional business grow by 272 % in ONE MONTH??" YEP, you read that correctly ... two HUNDRED and seventy-two percent in one month!!

"Is that even possible?", you may ask.

The answer is YES ... and it just happened to my personal UriLife sales team, which I have developed over the past 14 months under the direction of Sales and Marketing genius Brett Rademacher to promote the sales of the revolutionary nutritional products The Feast, Beyond Berries and The Feast Supercharged ...

"HOW COULD YOU STAND IT, having to suppress this much excitement these last two months?", I hear you cry.

Even Brett Rademacher could not have dreamt in his wildest imaginations that AUSTRALIA would be the FIRST country for Uri's international expansion outside of Canada. Australia has a reputation of being somewhat tough for introducing new food products. He had warned me not to get too excited and stay focused on other worth while business leads closer to home as he expected that opening up Australia could still be at least a year off, suggesting that all the while I "nurture" any enquiries that could arise from Australia.

Well, let me share with you what I believe is a Divine Convergence of events that can literally change things overnight and make "the impossible" a present-day reality.

First, the guy who enquired with me about URI was not just anybody. Paul was a man who was desperate for better nutrition. Due to a series of events that had led to 8+ years of suffering in his family life, he and his wife were "worn out" both physically, emotionally and financially. He believed that better nutrition could help him and his family get their lives to where they would be brought back to balance, to where they could recover from the gruelling stresses they had endured, to where they could sleep again peacefully.
Secondly, he believed that by working the URI business opportunity he could financially recover what had been lost over the years through both immediate payout bonuses as well as long term residual income. He could also see the Uri International Compensation Plan was not just incredibly fair and thorough in always paying out a true 50% but also geared to maximum Team Building advantage; something that will in turn richly reward the sponsor for a lifetime with 20% matching bonuses on income that the team members earn.

Now, since the company was not immediately set up for direct shipping to Australia I agreed to ship product to Paul and his wife from my house and to provide personal training for him in the URI business. This came at much additional cost to him by way of extra shipping costs, extra sales taxes, longer delays in receiving product, bridging the time differences between the USA and Australia to get trained up etc etc. ... but as they say, "A DESPERATE MAN IS WILLING TO TAKE DESPERATE MEASURES".

It did not take long for Paul to spread the word to a few other believers, ... equally "determined" people who were willing to pay the price of getting access to the Feast as fast as possible for their own nutritional improvement, as well as having the "First Mover Advantage" to capitalize on getting a head start on marketing URI into a brand new market place.

I could not describe to you what EXPLOSIVE EXPONENTIAL GROWTH looks like unless I had witnessed the relentless UPS deliveries to my house, boxes upon boxes, as many as 18-20 pieces per day of very large 10-20 pound boxes! Very few Network marketers EVER get to see this in their lifetime as most companies ship directly to the end user these days, but when it all arrives on YOUR doorstep you get to see what a LARGE DOWNLINE actually looks like. Pretty soon every room in my house was consumed with boxes stacked to the ceiling and shipping to Australia and New Zealand took on a full-time occupation !

All that time I was managing EVERYTHING that URI would normally do for these clients out of their offices, including full customer service and distributor training.

Then came our first shipment to a THIRD country which I cannot officially mention right now, but let me tell you when we get it officially on-line ... WATCH OUT !!!

Clearly, this growth could not have been sustained by our family indefinitely but it so happened that in parallel but independent of this quiet "explosion" that was happening in Australia, the URI corporate people had agreed to hire Ben Tyler as the new VP for Marketing. Ben Tyler is a man with extraordinary credentials. As described in a recent Uri International news brief:

"Ben was an executive and member of the executive committee for Tahitian Noni International, a network marketing company with annual sales of over US$500 million and a presence in nearly 50 countries. He joined the company at a time when Tahitian Noni as the company was just beginning to experience explosive growth and there were no international operations outside of the US and Canada. As general counsel, Ben supervised the legal work and assisted in the opening of most of the major international markets, including Japan, which quickly became Tahitian Noni's largest market. Ben was involved in nearly every aspect of a worldwide company, and particularly the relationship with the leading distributors".

So you guessed it ! ... As the success of Australia and New Zealand suddenly encroached on the Uri Corporate radar, Ben was hired at the right time and immediately thrust into a ready made job description ... "Open up Australia NOW unless we lose the momentum of all of Harold and Paul's hard work".

You can see what I mean by Divine Convergence !! ... A couple of desperate true believers (Paul, Bob, Josepha, Marion, Brenda, Marie and their teams) combine with an ex-Aussie (Yours Truly!) willing to work hard ("Git 'er Done" is what they say here in North Carolina!) in the right place at the right time and are given the help and support just when sales reached "boiling pot" levels.

Much of the secret in the growth of the Australian Uri International team was their "No Holds Barred" approach. These guys ALL ordered the biggest Fast Start Packages to take advantage of the maximum first-time-order discounts to start their businesses. Then they were eager to "Get the Word OUT" and these were the guys who would buy no less than 1000 Magalogs of "Real Nutrition News", the cutting edge magazine/catalog that alerts people to the shocking state of nutrition and the answers the Feast can bring to people's lives. These guys know that to GO BIG, FAST the best thing is to get the message out A.S.A.P. !!!
Paul and Bob had barely joined Uri for a month and they already came all the way from Western Australia to the 4-day Training Seminar in Salt Lake City ... THAT is dedication and a belief system that will open up NATIONS !!!

So the good news is:
1. You can sign up as a URI distributor in Australia and New Zealand by going to the special web page
2. The hard work has been done and the price has been paid by some dedicated fore-runners so that direct shipping from URI's warehouse in Utah, without additional shipping costs and taxes, is now possible.
3. If you live in another country such as England, Holland, Ireland, Norway, Hungary, South Africa, Austria, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Malaysia, Thailand, Taiwan, Korea, Brazil, Germany, Argentina or whatever (notice that I am not making any promises of imminent entry into these markets ; ) ), and you are a LEADER in Nutrition, Health, Business, Network Marketing, and you have the character to be a Fore-Runner, a Pioneer willing to make some early sacrifices in order to take First-Mover Advantage in establishing a NEW Business with unlimited financial opportunity ...

Please Contact Me and I am willing to work with you and help you achieve your goal in your target country through URI International's Not For Resale (NFR) program.

For example, I am currently talking to a health professional in one country who has been putting all her clients on a diet of traditional juice therapy; one which requires you to manually juice fruits and vegetables daily for a healthy juice drink. She had never heard of such a COMPLETE, Organically based Whole Food Nutrition Insta-Fresh (TM) convenient super Juice as "The Feast" and is ready and eager to introduce it to all of the clients in her 3000+ data base.
"None of my clients are able to take their juicer machine with them to work, but they can take packets (sachets) of LIVE juice powders of The Feast or Beyond Berries to conveniently and quickly prepare themselves the very best of whole food juices with an amazing taste".

So DON'T WAIT ... Contact Me ... and let me help you get on board the very best in Nutrition with your own business that can mean the beginning of financial prosperity and health for you, your family, friends and anyone you love or meet !!
As Brett Rademacher said so well on tonight's UriLife video team-training call: "You have the Opportunity RIGHT NOW to be the person who is a CATALYST for taking this AROUND THE GLOBE".

I'M HAVING A FEAST !!! ...

HOT NEWS - New Scientific Data ... Eat at Least 5 servings Fruit and Vegetables daily for Long Healthy LIFE - try Uri International The Feast

In a breaking news story, Michael Kahn of Reuters news service reported today that scientists in Britain at the University of Cambridge together with their colleagues at the Medical Research Council have completed studies that reveal that just "Four Health Changes Can Prolong Life 14 Years".
In a study of over 20,000 healthy British men and women conducted from 1993 - 1997, the Four Health Changes that contributed a significant difference in the longevity of those who have adopted these changes into their lifestyle and those who have not are: giving up smoking, exercise, drinking in moderation, and eating 5 servings of fruits and vegetables each day.
Of these the greatest significant benefit to longevity was the lifestyle change to give up smoking, which led to an 80 percent improvement in health, the study found. This was followed by eating fruits and vegetables.

Whilst at first sight these findings would come as no surprise to most people, since there has already been much supporting evidence gathered over the years on these lifestyle aspects, what was noteworthy about this study was that it is one of the first to actually Quantify the combined impactof these lifestyle changes. Details on how this study was conducted can be found in the source article.

Significant to the subject matter of this blog on My Uri International Business was the finding that eating 5 servings of fruits and vegetables per day was the Second most contributing factor to prolonging longevity.

Let me explain why this aspect was a foundational key to launching my Uri International Home Business and why Brett Rademacher and his Urilife network marketing team played such a vital role in helping me build a business that not only helps me generate unlimited residual income but that actually contributes to the health of my family by providing us with a product that significantly boosts our daily intake of fruits and vegetables through a concentrated wholefood (whole food) based nutritional supplement. I am talking about The Feast and the other core products from Uri International, Beyond Berries and The Feast Supercharged.

Whilst most readers of this blog would probably consider "giving up smoking" as a most difficult challenge due to the addictive nature of the habit, few of us have actually considered how difficult it is to break out of our acquired eating habits so as to incorporate at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables per day !

No Kidding ! Think about it for a moment. Did you get your 5 servings of fruits and vegetables today ? How much did you get ? Has this left you with a deficit ? What impact is this having on your health ?
These are apparently serious questions, serious enough that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) launched a special initiative that started out as the "5 A Day" Program but which has recently been updated to the Fruits & Veggies-More Matters (TM) campaign ... apparently in recognition of just that ... that the American diet is in dire need of as much fruits and vegetable consumption as possible, and that More is definitely Better !

Now let's go back to the question again, "How many servings of fruits and vegetables did I consume today?" and "How many servings did my lifestyle and caloric intake actually require?" To answer the latter I went to the Fruits & Veggies-More Matters web site that is a CDC initiative in partnership with the Produce for Better Health Foundation (PBH).
By using the easy-to-use calculator based on my age, gender and level of physical activity above and beyond the normal level of light every-day activity (which for today was less than 30 minutes and equated to a caloric intake requirement of 2400) I should have consumed a minimum of 2 cups of fruit and 3 cups of vegetables today.
What is considered a "cup of fruit"? The website helps you out with this question too and to summarize, it appears that 1 small apple would count as a cup whereas 6 baby carrots would count as 1/2 a cup.
A quick analysis of my meals today would show that I consumed perhaps 1/2 cup of fruit for breakfast through the consumption of a small banana, 1/2 cup of fruit for lunch by way of some apple in a fresh kefir smoothie and maybe 1 cup of vegetables through some carrots and spinach that were in a stew my wife prepared to go over some rice-like barley. I also drank a glass of organic apple juice which would have counted for 1 cup ... so essentially I consumed possibly up to 3 cups ... much less than the recommended 5 cups. Had I engaged in any moderate to heavy exercise I would have needed to consume at least 6 cups today !
Now what about you ? How did you fare? What about yesterday, or the day before ? Be honest ... are you consistently eating anywhere near this government recommended intake of 5-9 servings of fruits and vegetables?
My guess is that you are not and statistics show that you are not alone. According to the American Journal of Preventative Medicine (April 2007 issue) in 2002 only 11% of the American population managed to consume the daily intake guidelines set by the USDA even though many of the guidelines include Tomato sauce, Ketchup, pasteurized juice and even French fries as a serving ! Worse still, approximately 62% did not consume any whole fruit servings, 75% did not consume fruit juice and 25% reported eating no vegetables at all !!

Does that sound like we are winning the war and does it underscore the point that the CDC's Fruits & Veggies-More Matters (TM) campaign faces a very difficult challenge?
What is equally of concern is the fact that what little fruit and vegetables that Americans do consume in their daily diet, much of this lacks the nutritional value that it could have. A lot of our food is overcooked thus killing the life in the enzymes and destroying the proteins. I read a good example ... someone suggested that you try and cook a bean, for example, or an almond and then plant it and see if it will sprout. The answer is obviously NO ... it has been killed !
Then there are issues with fruits and vegetables being picked way before they are truly ripe in order to facilitate transport and handling to minimize damage. This means that it has had less time to mature and fully absorb all the nutrients from the soil nor had sufficient time to develop all the beneficial vitamins and complex beneficial plant proteins that contribute to flavor and health. In addition, much of our agriculture is done on soils that are increasingly depleted and lacking the soil structure that healthy earthworm rich organic soils display. Not too speak of the heavy pesticide usage on conventional crops, and now also the dubious issues that are being raised in relation to GMO (genetically modified) crops.

Talking Turkey - How Uri's "Feast Supercharged" helped Release the LIFE Within - 39th Annual Baldwinsville Kiwanis Turkey Day Race

You may be wondering what a 5000 meter (3.11 mile) Thanksgiving Road Race has to do with My Uri International Business? It didn't immediately dawn on me either (!!) but read on and learn how a FUN Family time in upstate New York presented itself as a natural marketing opportunity for our home business ...

For "Thanksgiving 2007" our family was invited by our friends Michael and Joanne to spend a week at their farm house near the beautiful historical village of Cazenovia near Syracuse, NY. This was our first time to "upstate" New York and we had no idea what to expect. After a long 13 1/2 hour road trip from North Carolina, lengthened by over an hour due to the fact that I took a 35 mile turn in the wrong direction on I-81 (!!), followed by a good night's sleep, a gorgeous countryside unveiled itself from the covers of the early morning fog. Even though the trees had lost their fall foliage and the farm fields now had but a random stubble left after the final harvest, the views from my bedroom that morning of rolling hills, old farm houses, red barns and silos as well as the glimpses we had caught through the fog the previous night of the early 19th century pre-Civil War village indicated that Cazenovia is a beautiful place to visit all year round. Any last lingering misgivings on whether it was worth while to have endured the long trip up were soon dispelled by Michael's famous omellette for breakfast! My friend is an artist with a talent that many aspiring gourmet chefs find out, often too late, is God given and cannot be acquired merely through a degree at a cullinary school.

Because I ALWAYS start my breakfast with a cool shake made with Uri International's live whole food based "InstaFresh" juice powders, there was nothing forced or awkward about sharing the benefits of this super healthy product with our friend Joanne, and she readily accepted the offer of a freshly prepared mix of 1 scoop of Beyond Berries and 1 scoop of The Feast Supercharged (mixed with 2 ice cubes and 8 ounces of water in a Uri Shaker Cup).
Joanne loves a fresh cup of coffee every morning to "get going". When I told her that the Feast Supercharged contained not only the same super blend of "fruits and berries", "greens and vegetables", "seeds nuts and sprouts", probiotics and "enzymes and minerals" as found in The Feast, but ALSO contained an additional mix of Supercharged Berries, Seeds and Leaves (including Guarana Seed extract, green tea extract, green coffee bean extract and Schizandra Berry extract) she was eager to try it as a healthy alternative to her normal coffee brew.
In fact, I told her that the previous day on the long 13 1/2 hour drive up from NC I never once had the urge to drink even one cup of coffee at the many gas stations along the way; I only drank a fresh mix of The Feast Supercharged every time I felt the need for a boost. Prior to starting my home business with Uri International this would have been unheard of; there is no way that I would have lasted a long road trip without frequent coffee consumption. Despite limited sleep the night before our departure I felt totally fresh without any sense of fatigue and it felt really good knowing that not only was I getting supercharged by the active ingredients found in the Feast Supercharged's seed and leaf components, but that I was also getting the benefit of over 70+ nutrient dense concentrates from fresh live whole foods.
This marked truly a revolution in the way we travelled (!) and this new found beverage consumption also spilled over in the way we planned our food consumption. Instead of stopping at the slew of fast food chains along the way, my wife had prepared lunch and dinner consisting of: home-made yoghurt with home made organic granola, whole wheat bread made with our freshly ground organic wheat flour, USDA certified 100% organic apple juice (Mott's brand), carrot and celery sticks, granola bars, home-made butter and peanut butter on the sandwiches, lots of fruit such as apples, bananas, mandarins, cheeses, hard boiled farm fresh free-range eggs and plenty of bottled water. Does that not sound much healthier than the Interstate highway convenience stop food ??!!

After breakfast Michael and Joanne took us to the nearby Chittenango Falls State Park. Here, within minutes of Cazenovia, we were able to see a 167 foot waterfall roar down ancient rock formations into a canyon with snow-covered pine trees that almost made you believe you were far away in a Rocky Mountain wilderness. There is even a rare snail that lives in this microcosm that is found nowhere else in the world!

OK, I hear you yell,"WHAT ABOUT THE FUN RUN, HAROLD?!!"
Are you getting the feeling by now that I was the perfect picture of peace and relaxation in anticipation of the the 3+ mile running race that I was to tackle the very next day? ... Not at all concerned about the fact that I had not run a competitive race for over 20 years !!

When Michael and Joanne's daughters Hillary and Natalie had heard of our family plans to visit they asked if the kids would be interested in joining them for a Thanksgiving Day "Turkey Trot" ... "a little road race around the village", they said, "Small, nothing to worry about. Just have them bring their sneakers ... Oh, and maybe their Dad would like to join them? Push the little baby in the stroller ... that kind of thing".

So OFCOURSE I had nothing to be concerned about right? This was going to be fun! ....
Hmmm, I should have thought long and hard about this prospect.

Hillary is known to train for marathons (!) and she had let it slip that she was close to final preparations for a marathon in a matter of weeks. Natalie likes to "help her sister" by running along with her for support ... This should have given me a clue that this was no "trot around the scenic village".

Having quietly registered all of our kids and myself, they now informed me that the race was over an hours drive from their home in a town called Baldwinsville, north-west of Syracuse, and that we were required to be at the pre-race registration a good deal of time before the race. The weather forecast began to look increasingly bleak and temperatures were "freshening" to put it mildly ...

"Kids, it's time for the Supercharged!", I declared resolutely as the seriousness of the event began to dawn on me. If you think I was taking things too seriously, I wish you could have seen the crowd that descended on Baldwinsville that Thanksgiving morning. While other more sane people were barely awakening the dawn to the prospect of a few hours of gently stuffing cranberries and assorted spices up a slain turkey's rectum, the folks that gathered for the 39th Annual Baldwinsville Kiwanis Turkey Day Race had the kind of aggressive posture of still having to go out and catch a live bird with their bare hands!!

Even though the longest race was a respectable 6 miles, the contestants bore all the semblance of taking on a full marathon, every bit as serious in their pre-race preparations, even down to the little kids getting ready to run the 1/2 mile! My kids were convinced that they required a boost and had all clamored at me for a healthy dose of The Feast and Beyond Berries. It seemed a wise thing to have asked for ... a secret weapon appeared a necessary requirement.

Suddenly my home-schooled kids who had never run so much as 10 laps around the house competitively, were about to be thrown into their first contest against public school kids accustomed to doing this several times a week. It was amusing to see everyone jockeying for position and even more so to see the vigorous sprint, more suited to a 100 yards dash, with which the pack shot off with short-lived enthusiasm. The rain was by now beginning to come down in icey sleet like formation and it was hard to remain enthusiastic about my own looming event. I was beginning to realize that all those long track pants of my fellow contestants were meant to be worn during the race and were not about to come off whilst my own jeans which I wore over my running shorts felt desirably warm even though I knew that they would hinder any serious running and I would have to dispense with them to brave the cold.

I was proud to see my oldest 12 year old girl come around the corner with the leading group and she finished roughly in 17th place out of an estimated 120 kids. Her 9 year old brother was close behind, fighting all the way as was his 7 year old brother who battled valiantly in the latter 30%. Second last but totally undeterred was my 4 year old girl who was proud to have run her first race and she ran straight to a race organizer in a turkey suit for a big hug.

The start of our race was some distance walk from the central high school building where the race was being hosted. As I neared the start line it became apparent just how many folks had turned out with religious devotion to this annual "warm-up" to the Thanksgiving celebrations. It literally felt as if most considered the most normal thing to do ... getting up in pitch dark ... driving for 1+ hour ... shivering in the cold sleet ...

Then just as suddenly my Feast Supercharged was kicking in. I began to see this race as do-able. I could picture myself running this thing, maybe even staying with the front pack, an outside chance of succeeding in my age group perhaps? Hey, I even got bold enough to put my special shirt advertising "Powered By the Feast SuperCharged" over the top of my fleece. There was no turning back now, I had to run this race with valor ... SUPERCHARGED !!

I will spare you the excitement of the race development, the grit and determination, the thrill of the finish, except to say that the final verdict is now in the public domain ...

The official race results for the 39th Annual Baldwinsville Kiwanis Turkey Day Races give evidence of the fact that I finished in 70th place out of 526 participants in the 5000 meters in a time of 22 minutes and 13 seconds. Congratulations to all who finished the race, especially to the winner Mike Heymann of Tully who ran the race in 16:38 followed closely in second place by Michael Snihur in 16:41 and Brad Argentine in 16:46.

The 10 km run was won in a blistering 32:27 by Jake McAndrew of Oswego, NY convincingly ahead of Mike Melfi of Liverpool, NY who came in second in 33:11 and Shad Miller of Providence, Rhode Island who came in third in 33:38.

At the Awards Ceremony I made sure I had plenty of Uri SAMPLES to give to the winners of the events together with my Uri International business card. I also sampled several participants who expressed an interest in using this product as a means to providing good nutrition for their long distance running and training for marathons ... and rightly so! The Feast is the only product on the market that provides a synergistic, all natural, nutritionally balanced combination of nature's most beneficial whole food concentrates, including minerals, enzymes and probiotics. It provides a convenient all-in-one concentrated whole food supplement for today's active and demanding lifestyles, including competitive running !!

Congratulations also to our friends Hillary and Natalie. Hillary rand her 10 km as preparation for the Charlotte, NC marathon where she ran a personal best well under 4 hours. Thanks to both of you for sharing this truly FUN event with our family. We are inspired to do this again !!!

Final Congratulations to their parents Michael and Joanne who were so impressed with Uri International's Live Whole Food Based Nutrient Dense products The Feast, Beyond Berries and Feast Supercharged that they signed up as new distributors as a result of our time together (no doubt impressed by my results in the fun run ... LOL!) and immediately converted that into succes by signing up their friends David and Deborah S. who also came to the Thanksgiving gathering and were equally impressed by the prospects afforded by a home business with Uri International !!

So in closing, you an see how easy it is to incorporate this home business into your every day lifestyle. The UriLife style affords you a way to derive the utmost benefit from eating healthy food and sharing this with every person you love or meet. I am thankful to Brett Rademacher for introducing me to the best business opportunity ever and for the super sales team that he has developed with the sales and marketing tools that are a joy to use ... from the cutting-edge automated internet based systems, the radio and magazine coops right down to simple tried and true tools such as a T-Shirt advertisement for the Feast Supercharged !

As you can gather, I'M HAVING A FEAST !!! ...

The Feast Poster Child - doesn't yet know why Daddy is so excited about URI and Brett Rademacher's UriLife team ... but HE loves Uri's BARLEY PURE !

I bet there isn't a mother in the world who hasn't fought her children over eating greens and vegetables, right? ... Well, I couldn't help but share how you can win the battle!

Take a good look at this picture ...

This was taken of our youngest son at 5 months eating Uri International's "Barley Pure (TM)" !! That's right ... pure Barley Juice Powder that has been derived from fresh, young, certified organic barley grass.

Incredible ?? ... I wish I could show you a video of how he devours this twice daily and how he can't wait till we feed it to him. My wife simply takes a teaspoon of the Barley Pure powder and adds just enough water to make a paste that she then feeds to little B.

After 4 kids my wife has some experience you might say, and when #5 came along we had not only transitioned to a much healthier diet as a family, but she began to notice that when you feed kids healthy food they do not yearn for all the sugary carbohydrate laden foods that dominate so much of the Western diet.

I experienced the same thing when I began to consume The Feast from Uri every day. I too noticed that when I drank down the goodness of the over 176 natural ingredients that are in the Feast for breakfast every morning before 8.00 am, I lost all desire to go "snacking" on junk food and was satisfied well until lunchtime at 1.30 or 2.00 o'clock. Not that I had a particularly bad habit but hey, bad habits creep in and I was partial to looking for chocolate, corn chips, cookies etc particularly during times of work related stress or, conversely, inactivity.

When I was at the University of Tasmania (!) I remember that during a Zoology lecture our professor explained that an animal eats for nutrition, NOT until its stomach is full. When I first heard this I found it hard to believe. After all, I was a young growing 88+ kilogram (195 pound) rugby playing eating machine who would not only "down" two large plates of mamma's macaroni for dinner but also clean up any left-overs as well!

"Surely you ate until your stomach burst", I thought, " ... Wasn't that the whole point?!"

Yet here was my University profesor claiming that there existed this mythical ideal state of being wherein an animal or human would actually stop eating if its body told it that it had consumed all the nutrients and energy it required for the time being?! Needless to say I challenged the professor's claim as it was simply way beyond my realms of posibility.

"Yes", the professor conceeded, "an animal mostly eats until its stomach is full, but if in that meal it does not get what it actually needs to sustain life and growth, then it will simply start eating again until it is nutritiously satisfied."

Unconvinced and full of scepticism I dismissed the dear professor's argument as a frivolous academic moot point that would never seriously be experienced as truth by anyone in the "real world of food". Well, long after that 1st-year Zoology lecture, with the mist of 20 years of time obscuring now even the professor's name, I stumbled unexpectedly upon the "proof" I'm sure he had wished to have had on hand to demonstrate his theorem ... and it came half way around the world in the mountains of North Carolina where my friend Brett Rademacher first shared with me how he had stumbled upon the "motherload" of healthy, satisfying nutrition The Feast.

While I was now 20+ years wiser and had learned over the years not to argue with an acclaimed health and nutrition marketing "guru" like Brett Rademacher, and it was undisputable that the Feast had an impressive list of super healthy ingredients, I had developed a new scepticism ... How anyone could drink down these yukkie tasting health drinks that seemed to have sprouted up everywhere during the new millenium??

So I reluctantly accepted the invitation to try a sample with the proviso that I would only drink it if both my 6-year old and 8-year old boys would first try it and like it ! (Gee ... what happened to that rugby playing, wind-surfing macho machine ??!!).

Guess what?... I had not counted on the nutritional genius of David Uri LeBaron. But then, how could I have known that after more than two decades of organic farming and developing the proprietary and revolutionary procecesses that have made him an undisputed leader in whole food nutrition, he would know a thing or two about how to preserve GREAT TASTE?!

I suppose I'll never quite know what made my "fussiest" eater drink down the whole glass of the Feast that February morning and then wipe his mouth and exclaim, "What was THAT? Can I have some more Mr Brett?" ... Could it have been the taste of the 30 fruits and berries? Was one of those 30 greens and vegetables maybe somewhat tasty after all? HANG ON ... What did I just say??? My boy just drank down THIRTY greens and vegetables ?????

To say that I was convinced, was an understatement !! I couldn't wait to start telling all my friends and business clients about this stuff.

Back to my youngest boy in our family ... for now we'll stick to the Barley Pure. He likes it so much that he prefers it over anything sweet like apple sauce. I can imagine that if any mother wisely sticks to that kind of routine they can avoid much grief over the "greens and veggies" wars that are traditionally fought in most families.

Next time I'll go more into what makes Barley Pure (TM) so incredibly healthy but for now I'M HAVING A FEAST !!! ...

BREAKING NEWS: 100th Distributor just joined my URI Sales team - I'm glad I joined Brett Rademacher's UriLife group !!

Hi ! ... and Welcome to My Uri International Business Blog, where today I celebrated the 100th distributor added to my sales team!!

Congratulations and welcome to Sally Mendoza who was sponsored into the business by Sylvia Jovillar. Well done ladies, and welcome to the team !

What better event to begin my blog with, right? I joined Uri Inernational on March 26, 2007 and this is the FIRST Network Marketing business that I have ever joined ... but thanks to Brett Rademacher 's incredible training that he provides through his UriLife sales and marketing group I have gone from being a complete novice in MLM to having made it to a Manager position (3rd level compensation level) by August of this year with TODAY the 100th person joining my own sales team.

To Celebrate this event I want to take the opportunity to do a number of things:

1. Until January 26th, 2008 I will send a FREE SAMPLE packet of one each of Uri's flagship wholefood nutritional juice mixes The Feast, Beyond Berries and The Feast Supercharged to anyone in the USA who contacts me and tells me the FULL NAME of the 100th Distributor that joined my Uri sales organization ... CLUE: her name is Sally and I mention her in my opening paragraph !! ... You can always Click here for additional sample! but remember that whatever you order ... the above offer stands. This is a free celebration gift of over $ 7.- in value.

2. I want to thank everyone in my sales team for their hard work at achieving this milestone. You are all a part of this and I personally would have struggled long and hard to do it all by myself. The best thing about Network Marketing is that exponential sales growth begins to take place when EVERYONE contributes a little bit of effort and each one learns from one another how to get better at what you do AND to duplicate your efforts.

3. I want to encourage anyone who is relatively new to the business that YOU CAN DO THIS TOO!! When I started back in March it was a season when, as a family, we faced hard challenges on many fronts. A new business could potentially have added to the weight of challenges we were faced with. I could have had a "glass half empty" point of view of the prospects for this new business, BUT I realized that the basic fundamentals of this business were unlike any I had ever encountered all at once: ...

a). loooowww (I mean LOW) start-up cost of $ 9.95 to register to become a lifetime distributor

b). Uri's Feast which offered the best tasting live whole food nutrient dense product on the planet,

c). direct access to a high integrity FDA and FTC compliant, experienced manufacturer of health and nutrition products (Uri International) that obtains its ingredients from its own 5000+ acre organic farm in southern Utah and ...

d) the key to successful marketing ... a sales organization headed up by Brett Rademacher ; a man of the highest integrity in his personal life and business, a man who loves people and is passionate about helping others succeed and reach their highest God-given potential in life, who is passionate about health, good food and nutrition; a man who is a former protege of Jay Abrahams arguably the best direct marketing geniuses in the world, Brett having himself led several previous products to stellar success levels where he made personally as much as $350,000 per month income (!); now heading up the UriLife sales group that has seen exponential sales growth through the pioneering cutting edge sales and marketing tools developed by Brett himself and eagerly sought after by industry professionals.

e). The best and fairest sales compensation plan in the market ... this is Brett Rademacher's professional opinion and he has seen many models before !!

BELIEVE ME, I have been in business for my self since 1992 and have occasionally come across one of these strong fundamental pieces but NEVER have I had the joy of encountering all these strong pieces in ONE POWERFUL COMBINATION.

4). I well remember that at Brett's first UriLife training seminar in Charlotte, NC end of May this year, he would mention that once your sales organization reaches about 100 people "it begins to take on a life of its own" ... TOO RIGHT ! I currently have a new distributor join our group on average every second day, but with exponential sales growth this rate is itself increasing all the time !

Every business takes work and the harder you work the more rewards you should get. That may not always happen if you work a job as an employee for someone else but when you work for yourself you should expect this to happen, right? This year I have experienced for the first time the fruit of leveraging my effort through the combined effort of all those I trained up who were FREE to go and train and develop those whom they recruited into THEIR OWN sales business. Yep, that's right ... NO MORE WAITING FOR THAT JOB PROMOTION ... This is YOUR OWN business !! You are not working for Harold Kamperman or Brett Rademacher ... You are working for God and for yourself but the efforts of others help add to your sales volume through referral based rewards that last forever [I will write more about this in a later blog], and you reap the rewards of being trained and training others.

If you haven't guessed by now ... I'm excited !!! I'M HAVING A FEAST !!! ... You're invited to this BANQUET ... keep reading this BLOG ...

Happy Holiday greetings to you and your Loved Ones,

Harold Kamperman
