Nuskin needs to look up a guy by the name of Orrin Woodward who reportedly brought in $3 Million from a 10,000 person for his former Quixtar TEAM.

High level Quixtar distributors have made handsome profits over the years by staging conventions and seminars. These conventions along with sales of CDs, Books, Voicemail and Web Sites have long supplemented the below average Quixtar/Amway compensation plan, allowing the high level distributors to new distributors because of the perception of wealth.

Salt Lake Tribune:

Nu Skin Enterprises Inc.’s
third-quarter earnings were hindered by the cost of staging a
convention that drew more than 10,000 of its distributors to Salt Lake
City in September.

 
The Provo-based manufacturer and distributor of nutritional
and personal-care products said today it earned $13.5 million, or 21
cents per share in the quarter. A year earlier, it earned $13.2
million, or 19 cents per share.


"Earnings per share include approximately 5 cents of net costs
associated with the global distributor convention" staged to energize
its commission-only sales force and to try to build investor confidence
after a disappointing 2006, a company statement said.
