Rocking the Old Pueblo

Tucson. When you hear that word, certain unique images come readily to mind. For me, these images include turquoise stones, Sabino Canyon, Saguaro cactus, and Lute Olson's Wildcats. There is nowhere in the world quite like Tucson. It is a community that has vibes and vistas all its own.

After our delightful visit to the "Old Pueblo" yesterday, I can truly say that there is a new image that will come to mind when I hear the word Tucson from this day forth. That image is a jam packed Zrii Prosperity meeting, filled with some of the most driven, aware, and balanced people I have ever met. Over 300 individuals packed the Inn and Suites Hotel to welcome us, size up the ZriiVost, and take in all things Zrii. Only a handful made the trip from Phoenix, so this was a bonafide Tucson crowd. For the second night in a row, it was standing room only. Scores of guests joined the leaders of some of Zrii's fastest growing organizations for some light, luster, splendor, and prosperity.

Once again, Scientific Advisory Board member Dan Rhoda made a lasting impression with his eloquent distillation of the core principles of Ayurveda, and the powerful makeup of the Zrii formulation. It is clear that Dan's addresses are leaving an indelible impact on everyone who hears them. You will not want to miss any meeting where Dan is scheduled to speak, or any SAB conference call where he will be a guest. Curtis once again had MC honors. He is so smooth in this role, he should host the Academy Awards. Whoopi Goldberg, Billy Crystal, Jon Stewart hold nothing on him! I presented some of the elements of our unique prosperity plan and our collective opportunity for financial wellness. Kirby, as per usual, wrapped the meeting with a strong statement about our position as a company, where we have been, and where we are all heading together. His patriarchal presence is always reassuring.

Hats off to 7-Stars Eric and Tricia Albrechtsen of Florence, AZ, who have worked diligently over the past few months with regular trips to Tucson to build that area. Several major leaders have now emerged in Tucson, including 7-Stars Blue and Colt Elam. The Elams are becoming household names in Zrii, and we all feel inspired when we observe their significant success so early on. Newly minted 6-Star Cynthia Cross (in two months, no less) and 5-Star stay-at-home mom Brooke Hunt (and her husband, now affectionately known as "Mr. Brooke Hunt") were also in attendance with many of their excited team members. Cynthia and Brooke are flat out getting it done!

As we took off from Tucson this morning and gained altitude, a beautiful vista stretching from the airport on up to Oro Valley opened up before me. How inspired I felt at that moment by the people of this special area.

So, we wrap our first week of the first leg of the 2008 ZriiVost Tour. We saw nearly 1,000 IEs and guest in our first three stops. Even though we will use the weekend to rest up and refuel, we are very excited for next week's California destinations - San Diego, Orange County, and Los Angeles. Check the meetings page at zrii.com for exact locations. I will be joined next week by Curtis, Ryan (The Older) Thompson, Ryan (The Younger) Fleming, and Dan Rhoda. Who knows, maybe Kirby will even make an appearance. And of course, we will be joined by the finest IEs in the Golden State, and a large number of guests as well. Ryan Thompson, who has been busy all week with Prosperity Meetings in the East Coast, is very excited to join us on the Tour. Curtis and I are thrilled to have our one-of-a kind partner and amigo back on the bus! We look forward to seeing all of you in a few short days. The California stops wil be just as special as all of the preceding stops as the ZriiVost Tour rolls on!

I am back in the office now, and it has changed yet again. Now that we have acquired virtually all of the office space in our building, Tracy has our redecoration operation in full swing! Things are evolving each day, and the HQ is becoming positively Zrii-ified.

Quick update on our growth: After a huge growth month in January, we are about to close another stellar month of stout growth across the company! Sales revenues are up by a large margin month over month yet again. Average daily enrollments are way up. And convention sign-ups are skyrocketing! Make sure you register for ILLUMINATION and reserve your place in history before the seats are gone.

And don't forget, if you have not yet earned a share in the Fast Stat Bonus Pool or been paid as a 6-Star since December, you must do so in February to begin qualifying for our incentive trip to beautiful Cancun, Mexico. There has been a great deal of activity in the field this past week as IEs are qualifying themselves for this incredible trip to the Palace at Barcelo Maya - a luxurious, new, 5-Star resort on a gorgeous Caribbean beach.

I'll catch up with you next week from Southern California - yet another warm place to be this time of year. Are you seeing a trend?

Zriiyaa,

Clint (Foghorn Leghorn)
