Hi darlingx around the world
we are about to finish our 3days new president teams experience on invitation by
HERBALIFE in LA and to say we are blown away cannot even match how we are
feeling.
as all of you know we have been with HERBALIFE for almost 17years and have gone
through everything up and down humanly possible as a distributor out there in the
world and as a member of the company, and the last 3 days have been that awesome
that even big- and foulmouth Mag&Uli can hardly express the way it feels.
from the moment we touched down LAX airport we got spoiled in a way we never
ever experienced before, as we like to travel and stay usually like modern day
gypsies, on our own schedule and responsibility.
A huge limo picked us up after a delay of more than 3hours caused by a technical
problem with a DELTA aircraft which was hit by a thunderstorm coming from
Singapore to Narita/Tokio airport.
Arriving at the Montage hotel in downtown Beverly Hills Canon drive right next to
world famous Rodeo Dr, the most expensive shops we've ever seen, alright you
know we are not into that kind of shopping but to watch the people here in Beverly
Hills and the kind of cars they are handling, wouw, we love european big engines
and used to own em back in germany and as everyone has it here it appears just
normal.
At the hotel we checked in to a wonderful 5star room, even the bathroom had an
LCD TV and the workdesk was surely mine with every connection plug you possibly
need to get your mobile IT equipment going and connect to a 50' LCD TV
screen,there was an iPad provided with hotel informations and to connect to the
hotel facilities, just click an have a response right away ,book your table or whatever
you want, order room service and and and, Bose speakers to put your iPhone on and
go,wououw!!!!!
There were Mercedes limousines ready at any moment to take us to places.
Downstairs we had our own private HL lounge like a big private living room to meet
and greet, have food and drinks and of course shakes and tea and wonderful fresh
fruits and everything you can possibly imagine to blend them with from 7am to 6pm
every day and our HL coordinators were ready at any moment to spoil us even
more.
A lovely group of I don't know how many HL employees as coordinators throughout
the tour 24/7 really made the whole thing a once in a lifetime experience, just to

2. name a few Yoshie, Annabelle, Sandra and and and and and, thaaaaank you guys for
your love, we appreciated every single moment of your care.
Also a team of interpreters with mobile headsets for translation was with us 24/7 to
translate everywhere into Russian,bahasa Indonesia,Korean and spanish for the
mexican people.
We were a group of 40 new PTs and their spouses/families
18 new Pts from Indonesia, 7 from Malaysia, 7from Korea, 3 from Russia, 1 from US ,
2 from Mexiko, 1 from Venezuela and Mag&Uli from germany/thailand/Indonesia.
We have been on company tours here around 15years ago when HL was open in
around 35 countries, now we just opened country nr 85 and truely things have
changed, 15 years ago there was one corporate building near LAX airport, now we
have 3 and it was absolutely impressive to visit, and what surely has changed is the
way of interaction between corporate and almost 2 million distributors throughout
the world, its win and win from both sides now and we really can feel it also at the
local company offices back in Asia.
The tours we did to visit the state of the art production facilities at Lake Forrest CA,
the LA Galalxy stadium with the HL players lounge where David Beckham and the
soccer giants have their HL shakes and products prepared at any given moment.
It's hard to spot a special highlight as everything was just sooo great but the diner at
the corporate HQ at LA Live in downtown LA really got us overwhelmed.
To meet the corporate executives who steer the ship is one thing, but to feel how
they attended to us is another thing and I even cannot describe the joy we felt. I was
lucky to be seated right next to our CEO Michael O Johnson (maybe bc we where the
only people in that group of 40pax who speak english,hahaha) and to find out how
much he really knows about us in Thailand proofs a great respect for everyone as a
distributor out there, Bill Rahn ,Vicepresident Asia was sitting opposite us at the
diner table and to listen to his visions made it very clear where Asia will be within
5 years from now, lets go do it!!
Also to meet and talk to Dr. David Heber who is the head of the medical board and
responsible for the nutritional research as the helm of Mark Hughes nutritional lab
at UCLA university was very important to me personally with my background in
health and nutrition .
Each distributor was rewarded one by one with MOJ reading the personal story and
handing out our name plates so we could put em on the wall of fame of over 1700
international presidents teams around the world, what a moment, actors receiving
their Oscar here in LA must feel the same.
We had professional camera and video recording teams with us all over and got a
special interview shooting yesterday, looking forward to get those shots.

3. Corporate was so far away over years but to see and feel all what happened the last
3 days Uli&Mag can only say thank you and express our greatfullness for everything
which has happened to us throughout our HL career
of almost 17years and we truly can see what is going to happen the next 17years.
LETs go out an do it, over and over and over and over again.
Thanks to you all guys in LA who made that happen
with great love from Mag&Uli Rittinghaus
