Isagenix is a 10-year-old company that markets dietary supplements and personal-care products to a growing number of people

Carrie Ann Salvi

   Working from her home in Sag Harbor, a local cafe, in her neighbors’ living room, or even on a street in the village, Christa Schleicher, an executive wellness coach with Isagenix International, says she’s made six figures a year for six consecutive years.

    Isagenix is a 10-year-old company that markets dietary supplements and personal-care products to a growing number of people to help them live “healthier lives in an unhealthy environment.” Its associates, as they are called when they first join, rise through the ranks to become consultants, managers, directors, executives, and on up, with bonuses in cash, commissions, and free products for enrolling others in the program. As consultants build their own sales teams they get a percentage of commissions from those below them on the ladder.

    Ms. Schleicher said she ranks among the company’s top 50 employees and got there by being a “coach who cares.” Working with individuals, groups, and as a lecturer at conferences, showing people how to use Isagenix products to help them feel and look better, she often conducts “tastings” at an associate’s home or public space. To help new associates make money, she said, she starts by asking what their goals are, physically and financially. “Whatever you want to make, I’ll help you get there,” she said one day last week at the Sag Harbor Golden Pear, with a cup of tea and a large day-planner completely filled with to-dos in front of her.    

    Married with two children, a high-schooler and a middle-schooler, Ms. Schleicher’s background and experience is in sports performance training and weight loss. At the University of Delaware, where she earned a degree in exercise physiology, she was captain of the college’s Division 1 field hockey team. In addition to her work with Isagenix, she is a personal trainer, certified by the National Academy of Sports Medicine.

    A nine-day cleanse is the mainstay of the Isagenix program, with two cleanse days, five shake days, and then two more shake days. A cleanse day consists of small, specific snacks and consumption of a detox drink. A shake day consists of two meal-replacement protein-liquid shakes (they come in Dutch Chocolate and French Vanilla), as well as a small meal and snacks. A 30-day program with more dietary flexibility and only one cleanse a day is offered as well.

    To make money from the business, an associate needs to spend about $140 to $150 a month for Isagenix products — about the same as “a night at World Pie,” said Ms. Schleicher. A wide assortment of products are available, with new ones added every year. Altogether, it costs about $1,400 a year to run one’s own Isagenix business, including a personal Web site, she said. “Where else do you find that?”

    There are those who disparage network marketing, where the guy at the top makes all the money, Ms. Schleicher said. Her response is that corporate America is a pyramid, where a C.E.O. may make $800,000 while workers make $8 an hour. Pyramid schemes, she noted, have been illegal since 1979. Isagenix has been around since 2002 and she has been with it since 2007, and, she said, “Nobody is capping my income,” or that of those below her either.

    She and her sister, Jen Smith of Westhampton, did extensive research on other network marketing companies before signing up, she said, and found no compensation plan that could compare. Any financial person who studied it would find nothing wrong, she said, adding that they might even want to get involved.

    With a “homegrown” approach, person-to-person, Ms. Schleicher and Ms. Smith now have their own training program and pay an administrator $80,000 a year to help their teams. Her sister is in the company’s top 25 earners, she said, having made $500,000 her first year and now maintaining about $350,000 a year, with less effort. “It is remarkable what Jen and I have accomplished,” Ms. Schleicher said.

    Cindy Tuma of North Haven is one of her happy customers. “I haven’t felt this good in years,” Ms. Tuma wrote in a message to The Star on Friday. “Christa is an awesome trainer,” she said, expressing gratitude for the support that helped her lose over 30 pounds in four months and crediting the cleanse for ridding her of cravings for junk food and sugar. Ms. Tuma said she drinks a shake in the morning, has a bar for lunch, and has “a nice healthy dinner.” One cleanse a day helps keep her on track.

    There are certainly those who will simply use the products and not become associates, Ms. Schleicher acknowledged. They stick around because of the results they attain — weight loss, increased energy, or simply how they feel about themselves, she said. Others make a few hundred dollars a month, just enough to pay for the products they use, and they are happy with that. But for those who like to teach or share their accomplishments, she said, “the world becomes a golden opportunity.”

    Isagenix people come in all ages, shapes, and sizes. Ms. Schleicher said the company’s number-one earner is 81 years old and earns $2 million a year, equal to what he made in 40 years as a butcher.

    To prepare for an influx of new cleansers in the new year, Ms. Schleicher and Ms. Smith have planned a “group cleanse” starting on Jan. 14. It will include 24/7 online support via Facebook as well as a daily conference call for those who wish to join. Her Web site, nutritionalrebalancing.com, has the details, along with “plenty of support.”

Boat Show Outing

    The Hampton Jitney has put together a package deal for those who would like to see the New York Boat Show at the Jacob Javits Center in Manhattan on Saturday. A bus will leave from the Jitney stop in East Hampton Village at 8:30 a.m., making stops in Bridgehampton and Southampton. The return trip departs at 5 p.m.

    The $55 cost includes admission to the Javits Center. Some of the highlights of this year’s show are a heated pool in which anyone 10 and older can try scuba, the Miss Geico offshore racing boat, and a power-docking competition by remote control. There are a range of seminars and fishing how-tos on the schedule. Reservations are with the Jitney office.

For “Scoot” Rail

    In a press release issued Monday, Five Towns Rural Transit, a citizens group, expressed its support for a Long Island Rail Road planned investment in small-scale diesel “scoot” trains that could expand local service on the Twin Forks, perhaps as early as 2014.

    In the announcement, Kathy Cunningham, the group’s president, said that more frequent train trips would lead to a need for additional bus routes to help travelers complete the last legs of travel, especially important for reaching areas not near L.I.R.R. stations.

    The organization said that a bus connection is also necessary to link the Greenport train station and North Ferry dock to Cross Sound Ferry’s terminal at Orient Point.

Sandy Loan Deadline Extended

Sandy Loan Deadline Extended

Federal Emergency Management Agency deadline extended
By
David E. Rattray

   The Federal Emergency Management Agency has extended to Jan. 28 the deadline for individuals to apply for financial assistance with physical losses due to Hurricane Sandy.

    On Long Island, the extension is open to people living in Suffolk, Nassau, and Queens. It is also open to those on Staten Island, in the Bronx, and in Kings, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Sullivan, Ulster, and Westchester Counties. Registration is online at disasterassistance. gov or by phone at 800-621-3362.

    Loans are available for rent, essential home repairs, and property losses that are not otherwise covered by insurance. Some business losses and those to nonprofits and civic or religious organizations are also eligible for assistance. The interest rate for loans to individuals is 1.68 percent for those without an alternative source of credit. Loans are capped at $200,000 for repairs, $40,000 for personal property.

    The Small Business Administration’s July 31 application deadline for those seeking low-cost loans of up to $2 million to cope with economic losses is unchanged. The interest rate for S.B.A. loans is 4 percent; nonprofits are eligible for a 3-percent rate. Information is available online at disasterloan.sba.gov.
