everyone we're gonna go ahead and get started thank you

so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to be on this call, I

apologize for the short notice

we've actually been working on the details of this announcement

for quite some time now and we finally have it all figured out

and we are so excited to share with you what what we are going to be talking

about

today so thank you for being on the call

and as promised we have some really big news and some really exciting things

to talk about and I'm just going to turn the time over to Sean to share a couple of things with you

so team just a couple of housekeeping things

the call will be recorded and so you'll be able to

get a copy of the recording we will post it will come out an email later on

so you'll have all the ability in the world on this call out to your teams and

share as much as you need to know

wanted to just talk a little bit about

thanks really in large part you guys we

have been blessed we have grown as a company

we had no idea when we started this out of our basement

well really Annelise did, I was at work

you know 3-4 I guess it's almost been five years now

that this was going to turn into a multi-million dollar company we

just had no idea

and it's just been an exciting journey and

as we've started to really grow thanks in large part

all of your efforts and all of your work we recognized

Fully that Annelise and I have

very little to do with it at this point it's really all about you and what you

do

and we're grateful everyday for that and we're growing fast we've always felt in

the back of our minds that

this concept was so great that the message of infinite worth was so important

and

that Annelise's story gave hope and dreams to people

that, you know we're just trying to get it out

trying to find a way

that we knew we could do something great so we decided

to really start looking in for ways to pour

some fuel on the Mialisia fire and really take it to that next

effort and explode it and to do that we need to get some resources

yeah we kinda discovered that when you're building a brand new company

it takes a significant amount of investment and capital

and resources and you know to really take it

that next level and we found that we haven't been able to give you

everything that we want to give you to help you be more successful and to help

Mialisia grow faster

and as you guys could imagine

there's a lot that goes into that so I'm going to tell you

what our announcement is here in a second, but before

I do, I just wanna share with you some other things that have been going

through our

discussion minds, hearts Annelise and I, Brandi and others we've talked around

and sat around at the office and talk about these things

and one of the biggest things that we've noticed in the last several months

is that party plan is evolving

it up still they're always be

a need and the desire to get together and to share something like this great

concept to do great things

but it's evolving right we've seen titans in the industry go out of business

from you know some of these big ones just a couple recently

and we really look hard at what happened what were they doing what could they

have done better

where they changing and evolving too fast they needed to so we're trying to

be forward thinking in that area and say

what do we need to evolve in and as you all know we're working very diligently

on the confidence social selling

having a virtual platform to be able to do parties online

we also know that there is a big need for party but that

we have to change with the times we have to evolve

and that doesn't mean we get rid a party so please don't misunderstand what I'm

saying but it simply means

it that we're we're have to pay attention to what's going on in the

industry

the other thing that we've noticed you know there is a big big thing

is that women still get really really excited about our concept there's an

education thing there

they have to see it and when they do they go crazy they they're they're like

oh my gosh

I've not ever worn jury before I've needed to wear jewelry and now I can

and and then the third thing that we really felt strongly about

is we need a bigger platform a wider platform

so that you all can be successful and find the

happiness and excitement and whatever your why is why you join Mialisia

family at a faster rate

we've got to do a better job at pouring that fuel on the fire so that you can

get

to your goals and dreams quicker and not feel

stagnant or stale and so we've got several strategies that you'll be seeing

come out in the near future

virtual party platform to

lots of other ideas where we come out with new jewelry more frequently and more often

and retire pieces to keep demand high and excitement high

you're gonna see a lot of stuff come now having said that

we went out and looked for a partner we started

interviewing people that wanted to help us achieve those goals and

we got in front of everybody from investors to

groups and somewhere along

the line we on came across Youngevity

now let me tell you about Youngevity because you're probably going

who is Youngevity and you might even be saying to yourself

why in the world I think Youngevity if I know them

that their you know a traditional multi-level marketing company so why

would that make sense

Youngevity shared with us when we first met them, Annelise and I did about

their vision

they shared that they were trying to build a family brand

that they weren't looking at buying companies and dissolving them

but they were looking at buying brand and expanding those brands and helping

those companies become bigger and better than they are

in their current model and their current way of doing things

and their current concept so in other words they were

you know not trying to buy an oil company and turn it into

like a Youngevity company they were protecting that brand

and trying to help them expand it be better than they are

Annelise and I were intrigued by this because we know of the success of

Amazon

which is essentially the same business model but on an internet platform

and thought well somebody's gonna do that for direct sale that could be the

solution

to making sure that people have the ability

to have multiple streams of income which is what so many of you

are looking to do another thing we saw was a lot of our

field reps were out there doing multiple things

so they were doing you know things like from other companies or trying to

you know work part time jobs than we thought why are they doing that

and what could we do to provide them an opportunity to have multiple streams of

income

and again this answer of Youngevity came up we were intrigued by them we

start meeting with them

and yesterday we signed a deal to become part of the Youngevity family

now who is Youngevity again they're an 18-year-old company

they've been around the block they know what they're doing their

sales have been growing and booming over up sixty percent growth just last

year there

150 million and growing they did over 45 million in the first quarter

they're having a lot of success and their

having a lot of success from the diversity these brands they have a

hundred and fifty thousand

distributors in multiple countries across the world

it allowed us a Mialisia family to instantly be in those markets from the

UK

to Australia to you name it there there they have a presence in a lot of

these places

which is exciting and fun, they also have product line

that you might or might not be familiar with that can

be something of interest to us

things like botanical spa, heritage makers

mineral makeup collection

you know coffee, essential oils. they have a lot of different things that are at

their

disposal which is really really great

Annelise - "Awesome, so you know

of course for me it was really important that we made

a good business decision with what we were doing with Mialisia

but more importantly it was

so incredibly important to me that it felt right

in my heart and you now Sean and I put a

ton of thought and prayer

in to this and and we did not make that decision lightly

we really really feel like this is a huge blessing and it this is an

incredible opportunity that has been

you know put in our path and we are

so excited about it and we feel absolutely that this is the right move

for us

I have complete peace

and complete confident that this is a great direction

for us to be moving. As we've met with the rest of the

family of Youngevity the people that we've met and associated with

up until this point, I love. I am so excited they have an incredible culture

they are

good people with great integrity they have

a great culture within their company and they are so excited

dig in and just help us grow

I mean how amazing is it that we just have this

incredible team backing us now. Now we have a huge

marketing and sales department to support us and we have a huge

IT Department to support us. we have our own warehouse that gonna support us

we have so many incredible resources

at our fingertips and they just want to help Mialisia grow

and so it's so exciting

and the best part is we get to be Mialisia

you know don't be afraid because we are still Mialisia we get to keep

our identity and that was the only way I would have agreed to do this

you know

and that was one of the first questions that they asked Sean and I are

you gonna stay with this

are you gonna be the brand ambassador and keep Mialisia alive

and of course our answer was absolutely

so it goes both ways there you know we are still

Mialisia we will remain Mialisia our brand our product we will keep our

website

we will have our own catalog we will have our promo and special

and we will be Mialisia we'll still

retain our mission of sharing the infinite worth message with

everyone and one of the most exciting things for me is that now

we have the opportunity to share our infinite worth message

around the world and that really

really is what got me the most excited because you all know that is

that is my why that is why I do this that I think it is so incredibly important

and now we have this huge stage and have the opportunity to share

with hundreds of thousands of people overnight

and I feel like we would have got their on our own eventually but why not

tomorrow instead

and so on so it's so exciting you know

where the same but now we

have support an expertise in the industry we have

people we have buying power we have everything that comes with a

well-established company

but we're still Mialisia and

that's not going to change our culture will not change Sean and I will be here

right at the top of the company and guiding your every step

I'm still designing all the jewelry I'm still gonna have a

say in everything that happens with Mialisia, we're very much at the

forefront of this and we are here for you and it is

so exciting to finally have the support that we need to give you

the success that you deserve." Sean - " and not only when they asked Annelise and I if we're

gonna stay involved in the company

did we say yes we said will do even better than that

we wanna be in the field and so we are movin
