TIENS Love Day




Every year, TIENS offices join in an effort to support children and orphans around the world. This year, the North American Head Office in Markham participated in a book drive for the United Way.

In an effort to support Tiens Love Day, the staff in North America has shown its support and willingness to assist children in need of literature by donating new books to the United Way.

On behalf of Tiens, the United Way will donate our books to the Yellow Brick House. The Yellow Brick House is a shelter that provides assistance to women and children who have experienced violence and abuse, by providing emergency shelter, counseling and education.

Tiens is pleased to note that through the staff’s generous book donations, the campaign to support and encourage a love of reading for children by providing them with books has been a success. By helping to put a book into a child’s hands, the North American staff has aided in making an impact on a child’s life.

TIENS in Direct Selling News

I mentioned on our conference call last Thursday that TIENS and TIENS Europe had been profiled in an excellent article in the Direct Selling News Europe edition.

Direct Selling News is an industry publication read by managers and executives of most major network marketing companies. In the May 2008 edition there is an extensive write up on TIENS, as well as an interview with President Li.

We now have the electronic version available for you on our TIENS North America website, and you can read it and download the pdf file by going to

I hope to also be able to get professional reprints of this article as well.

DSA Conferences

I am now writing you from Phoenix Arizona where I am attending the Annual Conference of the US Direct Sellers Association. There are almost 1000 leaders, CEO's, Founders, Presidents, and General Managers in attendance, as well as numerous supplier companies that offer their services to the industry.

We had the opportunity to join with the President of the US DSA, Neil Offen, and the entire Board of Directors of the DSA in an opening reception Sunday evening. Speeches were given by the outgoing Chairman of the Board, Nathan Moore, Executive Vice Presidnet of Mary Kay, and the new Chairman, David Wentz, President of Usana.

On Monday we heard from Jason Jennings, a bestselling author, who described the 4 key characteristics of successful leaders and companies. At the evening reception I had the privilege of meeting Robert Kiyosaki and his wife Kim. As you know Robert is the originator of the Rich Dad Poor Dad education books and system which includes the Cash Flow Quadrant.

It has been exciting to be here as we join together again today with so many Direct Selling companies in sharing our success formulas.

Everyone I have talked to has been so impressed by the TIENS story, our reach across the globe, and a few have even had the opportunity to meet or work with President Li.

I will let you more details of this conference as it wraps up this week.

Best regards,

Peter
