What is Xoçai™ XoBiotic?

What is Xoçai™ XoBiotic?There are many natural functional foods in virtually every food group. As we all know, chocolate itself is a functional food if it contains sufficient antioxidants and flavonoids.

However, it is now possible for manufacturers to create functional foods by fortifying and enhancing their products to give them added health benefits never before possible. A new growing segment of functional food is called “probiotics."Probiotic means “fit for life”, or “pro life." Probiotics are living microorganisms which when administered effectively in adequate amounts confer health benefits.

The adult intestinal tract is home to approximately 100 trillion microorganisms. More than 400 different bacterial species have already been identified in the intestinal tract.First, in order to be effective Probiotics must contain bacteria which are resistant to stomach acids and bile salts. Secondly, the bacteria must have the capacity to compete successfully with the indigenous intestinal bacteria.

So, either the bacteria must be protected by the use of encapsulation techniques, or new types of foods must be developed which offer increased protection for the bacteria. The key to the effectiveness of probiotic treatment is for the bacteria to be able to pass through the stomach and the small intestines reaching the large intestines with sufficient strength to colonize and flourish.

SHIME stands for “The Simulator of the Human Intestinal Microbial Ecosystem." This in vitro system was created to simulate the activities and conditions found in the stomach, small intestines, and large intestines. This enables scientists to monitor the quantity of bacteria that survive the journey to the large intestines. And, it also enables them to monitor the development of the bacterial colonies in the large intestines.

According to the American College of Gastroenterology, 95 million Americans suffer from digestive problems. Some 60 million have heartburn, 50 million have irritable bowel syndrome, and 20 million suffer from stomach ulcers.Many, many new probiotic products have been launched in North America and Europe. But, we have a distinct advantage. Chocolate appears to be the ideal delivery system for probiotics.

The Xoçai™ XoBiotic™ chocolate will be in the form of an 11-gram square and will deliver 200,000,000 microorganisms of two types—lactobacillus acidophilus and bifidobacterium lactis. These probiotics have been selected for our probiotic chocolate because of their stability in chocolate and their guaranteed nine-month shelf life if properly stored as recommended for all Xoçai™ products (40*F – 75*F).

By marrying the health benefits of dark chocolate with those of these two probiotic cultures, which have a positive influence on immune and gut health, we gain new opportunities with health-conscious consumers.

Presently there are no approved health claims on probiotics in the US. Our label will most likely state, “Contains acidophilus and bifidolactis; probiotics have been shown to benefit digestive and immune health.”

Once available, we will be providing more information on XoBiotic™, the 1st healthy, probiotic chocolate!

Thank you,

Discontinued 800 MXI Corp number

An e-mail was sent to MXI Associates announcing that effective 8am PST on December 11th, 2008, MXI Corp is discontinuing it toll-free telephone number, (866) 469-4267. After that time, to contact the MXI Corporate offices please dial (775) 971-9903. Those associates who dial the discontinued toll-free telephone number after 8am PST on December 11th, 2008 will be connected to a voicemail prompting them to dial (775) 971-9903.

We wanted you to understand why this is happening. This decision was based on recommendations from the Field Advisory Board three or four months ago.

During a Field Advisory conference call they discussed the wait time when calling customer service. It turns out that a lot of the calls customer service is getting deal with an explanation of the comp plan and questions on how to build a business. The company wanted to know why people were calling the company instead of their upline and it was indicated that it was because calling the company was free. It was then recommended they do away with the 800-number at that time. The company put off the decision hoping they could find another solution.

Most network marketing companies no longer have 800 numbers for Customer Service because people tend to call more and stay on the phones longer when the call is free. Many times instead of looking for the information on a web site or calling the upline they simply pick up the phone and call the 800-number. That leads to long wait times for people who actually have an issue that only MXI can solve.

Associate shouldn’t be calling the company for an explanation of the compensation plan or for questions about building a business. Customer service is not meant to provide this information. It is not their job it is the job of the upline.

If you have product information questions you should go to http://www.mxicorp.com/support/product.html and to your upline before contacting MXI.

For information about issues other than product you can try http://www.mxicorp.com/support/service.html which is a frequently asked questions page.

If you're wondering when your product will arrive you can find that information in your back office under My Business > Order and Package Tracking.

The hope is that when people no longer can call an 800-number they will first attempt to find the information on the web sites and through their upline the number of people calling the company will be reduced and those that actually need to speak with someone at the company will have to wait a much shorter time.

MXI is also in the process of implementing a chat feature in the back office that will be available for distributors.

We just wanted you to be aware of the reasons behind the decision.

Thank you,

Xocai “The Healthy Chocolate” Training:

I love the analogy by Tim Sales ………..”Have you ever tried to teach a child to tie his shoe? Isn’t it easier to just do it yourself, do it right, and get on with it? What is the problem with that? You will have to keep tying his shoes day after day after day. Once you decide to start teaching your child how to tie his own shoes, it takes a couple weeks, the knot inevitably is loose and comes undone – you have to keep reviewing step by step until one day it clicks and they can tie their shoes from then on.”

First, if you have not done the royal certification on http://www.royalcertified.com/ – that is your first assignment. Commit to do it within the next 24 hours.

Second, keep it simple. If you make this business too difficult – your team may not be able to duplicate your efforts. You do not need to know everything before you start. Learn as you go. ALWAYS rely on the tools – no matter your level of knowledge.

4 Step System to Duplication

1. Make a list 2. Contact that list 3. Follow up 4. 3-way call

Here are the 4 steps:

1) Make a list of people you would like in your business. “Prospecting”

a. “RECRUIT UP” – the most important advice I can give you! GO FOR PEOPLE WHO ALWAYS WANT MORE! If you were to own your own retail outlet, would you just hire anyone who walked in your door and said yeah I think I can do the job? No. You would want to know if they were qualified for the job. It is the same in this business. You do not want to waste your time, do not just sponsor anybody, sponsor people you would like to work with and be your business partners. If you just look for product consumers, you will only find product consumers and wonder why no one is building the business with you.
b. Once you have made your list – let us get together and categorize your list. We will identify 10-20 people to start talking to.

2) Contacting your list of prospects:


a. Getting the prospect’s attention: “Connecting and creating excitement”

· Connect – “Hi, How are you”

· Interest Creating Question “How are things with you.. and this economy?”

· Your story or 30 second commercial about the opportunity. When contacting a prospect let them know: 1. You are involved in a business venture that is growing very rapidly, even in this lagging economy and you are EXCITED!!! (MXI grew over 300% last year alone) 2. It has to do with marketing a very unique product, "healthy chocolate" and it tastes incredible. (Its important to let them know that it tastes good) 3. You want them to watch/listen to the presentation that will tell them all about the product and the marketing plan. It may or may not be for them but will definitely be worth their time. If it is not for them then they may know someone that is interested. Let them know you will get back with them tomorrow at ________ time.
Wait for an invitation to present a tool


b. Building Interest: “Let the tools do the talking”

Offer a tool (CD, DVD, Magazine, Brochure, Website)

Get their email address

· Get their name

· Set a time to follow up

· Obtain the phone number they will answer at the time of the appointment


3) Follow Up: “The fortune is in the follow up”


· Ask open ended questions: “What did you like best about what you heard or read?”

· Identify their level of interest

· Get them started

4) Get their questions answered by doing a 3-way call with your active upline.


a. The correct way to do a 3-way call:

· Setting Up the 3-way Call: Once you have qualified your prospect for a 3-way call, let them know you are going to set up a call with your leader. As you are setting up the 3-way call, take a few moments to edify your leader that is going to do the call. This will help your prospect feel that the leader will effectively answer their questions, and let them know that this person is a great leader of a successful team.
· Make sure your leader is aware of the time you need to do your calls.
· Beginning The 3-way Call: Contact your leader about 5 minutes before the 3-way call. At this time you will want to give your leader information about your prospect and some insight into the possible questions they may want answered.
· Introducing Your Leader: This is done by edifying your leader once again. Do not edify your prospect, they need to feel that the leader is The influential one on the phone call.
· Your Silence is Golden: Once you have made the introduction and edified your leader, you role is complete. You Do Not Speak again unless you are invited back into the conversation by your leader. If you speak after you have handed over the call, you begin to discredit your leader.
· Leave it to your Leader’s Capable Hands
· Complete the registration: Once your prospect is on board your leader will turn the call back over to you to complete the registration and set up the next call with your new prospect to begin training them and duplicating this system.

These are the four steps of duplication (1. Make a list 2. Contact your Prospects 3. Follow up 4. 3-way call). It is simple right?

We just wanted to give a suggestion about talking to your prospects about this business. We want to find out their “why.” Ask them questions – find out if they are financially stressed, if they are – ask them if they have some kind of back up plan or other solution. If they say they want to get out of their job or buy their dream car – ask them if “they are serious?” If they are – give them a tool: a CD, Website, or DVD, etc. We use their “why” to get them to take the time to look into this presentation….why it will be worth their time. Make sure to set up a time to follow up! DO NOT keep talking. If they keep asking you questions – tell them to look at the presentation because it will probably answer their questions, and any unanswered questions can be discussed on the 3-way follow-up call. Sometimes we can talk people in and then too much talking can talk them right back out. The key is in the follow up and 3-way call!

Three A Day:
Commit to contacting 3 people a day and following up with 3 people a day. This needs to be done on the phone or in person…not through email. The initial contact should only take about 5 minutes of their time. The follow up can be anywhere from 5 minutes (if they are not interested) to 25 minutes (through a three-way call). Duplicate this over and over and help teach your recruits to do the same and you will have success and reach your goals.

Here are a couple examples in conversation format with our prospect Sally.


Hi Sally this is Natalie, how are you today? Great! Listen Bob, the reason I am calling is to let you know that I am involved in an exciting business venture that is growing very rapidly. I market a very unique product in the market place. It is chocolate, actually healthy chocolate and it tastes incredible. I want you to listen to a 30 minute webinar at www.ShareChoc.com to get your opinion. It may or may not be for you but will definitely be worth your time. If it is not for you then you will probably know someone that is interested. Can you listen to the presentation by tomorrow afternoon? Great! Would 3:00 or 4:15 PM be best to call you back tomorrow? It was good talking with you. Talk to you tomorrow.


Or if Sally is a friend and you know what he wants, then say it this way.

"Hi Sally, this is Jenny how are you doing today? Great, listen the other day you told me that you were tired of your job and wanted to start a new career. Were you serious about that or just kidding around? I have something that could help you replace your income from your current job. It is a business that I am involved with that is growing like crazy right now. I market Chocolate of all things, and best of all it is Healthy Chocolate that tastes incredible. You need to listen to this 15 minute video online at www.ShareChoc.com called the Perfect Combination. I think you will see why I am so excited about this and why I am sharing it with you. Watch the video today and I will call you back in the morning. Sound good? Great! Talk to you then."


Or,

Hi Sally how are you? Great! You told me the other day when we had lunch that you were trying to figure out how to pay for your kids college education. Are you serious about finding a way to do that? I found a business venture that could make you that type of money. It is a part of the health and wellness industry that is growing at over 100 million dollars a day. It has to do with marketing a very unique product that everyone already loves. It is chocolate, actually healthy chocolate and it tastes incredible. You are going to love it. I have an audio CD that tells all about the product and the business. I want you to listen to it to see what you think. I will bring it over now with a sample of the chocolate. Does that work? Great, see you in a few minutes.


That is it! If they have questions for you, before they listen to the presentation, let them know that they will all be answered by watching the presentation. If you say more than what is presented above then you are doing yourself a disservice. These tools are easy to duplicate, and if you let the tool do the presentation instead of doing it yourself then your new business partners will not be intimidated to use the same tools and you will start seeing your business grow.


When you have your prospect view the presentation and then get them on a 3-way call with your leader it will be powerful. Because now your prospect will know that you are part of a team that is bigger than just you and that you have support to build your business. It is also powerful because your prospect is now hearing the excitement from three different people, YOU, the presenter on the presentation and from your upline.


If they tell you "NO" then don't take is personally and move onto the next person. Remember, this is a numbers game so if you work the numbers right... the numbers start working for you. If you talk to 5 people and they all tell you "No"... it's ok. You are now closer to getting a "yes."

Keep in mind that if you are talking to your next door neighbor or someone in person then the most effective thing you can do is give them a CD, DVD or our new "Success From Home" magazine. These are the tools of choice if your prospect lives close by.

Make sure only to lend out the CD or DVD presentation. If you have 20 CDs then rotate them on a 48 hr basis. If the person has not listened to it in 48 hrs then let them know that you need to pick it up and give it to someone else even if they have not listened to it yet. This will show them that you are serious about your business. Most of the time they will find time to listen to it on your way over to pick it up.

A few pointers to keep in mind:

• 1. Do not give the presentation yourself. Let the TOOL deliver the
  presentation. Even if you
  can give a brilliant presentation and your prospects sign up with you; your
  prospect, more than likely, will not be as good as you are at presenting or
  selling. You do not want them to wait until they know everything before they
  share our opportunity with others.

• 2. The Follow Up is where you will make your money. Don't hesitate to follow up 5 or 6 times with people until you get a hold of them.

3. Use your upline to answer questions for your prospects or send them to another tool to get their questions answered.

4. Do not get discouraged if some one tells you "NO". Stay emotionally stable and don't ride the emotional roller coaster. Remember our products are cutting edge, they have positively changed the health of thousands, and helps thousands make a great and viable income.

5. Do not ever send a new prospect to the company website or even your personal website until they have heard a presentation first. These websites tell no story and there is too much information there that will only confuse.
