There has been a lot of good news for Herbalife recently. They just handed out $30 million in bonuses to distributors, signed a Soccer team with a world wide celebrity playing on it and now they are announcing China's granting of a direct-selling license.

Herbalife Ltd. (NYSE:HLF), a global nutrition direct-selling company, announced today that it has received its direct-selling license from China's Ministry of Commerce.

The license permits Herbalife to conduct a direct selling business in Suzhou and Nanjing in the Jiangsu province. Over six million people live in Suzhou, the fifth largest Chinese city based upon GDP, and approximately eight million people live in Nanjing, which is the second largest commercial center in East China after Shanghai.

Herbalife currently operates 42 stores and 17 service centers in 25 provinces in China. The company operates a unique direct-selling model in China in accordance with local regulations. Independent distributors who are employed by the company conduct their business in retail locations owned by Herbalife. Consumers and other distributors come into the store to buy product and learn more about the business opportunity. Now that a license has been granted, Distributors will be allowed to conduct business outside of the store in the particular province and cities named in the direct selling license.

    Hello, This is Mary

    I am 36 years old with 2 toddlers. My youngest just started day care last week- which still feels a little strange. I haven't had this much time to myself in years. First thing I want to do is lose the extra pounds I put on during the last pregnancy. One of the girls next door has suggested I join her walking group two days a week. After my first pregnancy I lost around 35 pounds using the Herbalife products, but when I called the man that sold them to me three years ago he told me this week he doesn't sell them anymore. He told me to look on the internet. It's disappointing because he was really nice and he called me regularly to make sure I was using their products correctly. It was nice to have someone checking in with me every week to see how I was and it kept me motivated.

    I searched on the internet for someone that sells Herbalife in New Jersey. I found many websites but I don't want
    just to buy the products, I want to find someone trustworthy that sells the products so I can also meet them and get started again.

    Could anybody here recommend someone in New Brunswick?

    Thanks, Mary

    Hi Mary,

    From one mom to another I think I have a solution for you!! I want to lose 40 pounds, and I've lost 28 so far!!! I am feeling fantastic and have more energy

    than I did when I was in college. I went through three different Herbalife distributors until I found the person I felt really actually cared about me and helped

    me to start getting results. The bottom line was that I wanted to find somebody that could offer me good prices, but that could also check in with me to

    make sure I was doing ok.

    I used to drive two hours to meet with my first distributor in West Haven, Connecticut. I even brought the girls with me a few times because I couldn't find

    a babysitter. Today my Herbalife coach does everything over the phone and it is much easier with my busy schedule. You can order Herbalife online on

    his website, you get the shakes a few days after with FedEx and then you can setup a telephone meeting once a week to make sure you are doing the

    program right.

    His name is Danny Castello and his website is http://www.goshape.com. The number is (310) 928- 3835. He and his

    girlfriend Michaela actually do most of the coaching together as a team, but she has an Herbalife site as well: http://www.puresteps.com. He does most of the motivation on the call and gives you important facts regarding nutrition.

    He can be a bit tough but he really wants you to get results. She is a bit softer- so they make a good combination. Actually I also recommend joining his

    newsletter first so you can see the articles on nutrition. They also have videos so you can see who they are before actually calling them. Its nice because

    they actually use the products too. You can see on their websites.

    Hope this helps!

    Liz
