Congratulations to our New IDLife Presidential Directors! Check out what inspired them to start the IDLife Business, their tips and tricks, and much more in their Q&A!

Michelle and Keith Norris

1. How did you hear about IDLife & what inspired you to start the Business?

Funny story actually, one of my best friends Jennifer Moran, invited me to get into her previous network marketing venture. I told her “I didn’t do network marketing, but that I would support her however I could.” A few weeks later, she asked me to check out IDLife for her. She was looking to move from her other company, that she had the medical piece of it down, but didn’t know the nutrition and wanted me and Keith to come poke holes in it and see if they were as good as they said they were. When we asked what it was, she told us supplements. We looked at each other and thought, “Lord we have to talk her out of this!” We know firsthand how bad the supplement industry is. We are asked multiple times each week to endorse some type of supplement, protein, bar, you name it and we’ve never found anything good enough. We went to meet with Logan Stout, he explained the vision behind ID Life, he explained the assessment, the products and how the compensation plan would work. What sold us was the amount of evidence that backed everything, especially the assessment and how detailed it was. We discussed ingredients and Logan told us, they would never sell a “me too” product. They would either be a solution to a problem that hadn’t been addressed or an improvement to a solution and the best product on the market or they wouldn’t do it at all. We believed this was bigger than even they knew it was. We told Jennifer what we thought. 3 weeks later, Jennifer and I were getting ready to go on a girl’s trip together and I asked if she was going to do IDLife, she said she was. I told her, we wanted in. Her response was I thought you didn’t do network marketing and I said, we don’t know anything about that, so you’ll have to teach us all of that but we know nutrition and we know that this company is going to change the industry entirely. So we remained coachable, put into practice the things we were taught and we’ve had a tremendous amount of success, so far.

2. Being part of a Direct Selling Company requires dedication, motivation, and consistent habits. What has helped you get to where you are now and do you have any tips you would like to share to others who might be interested into getting into Direct Sells?

Keith: I think many people have an “ick” factor about Direct sales because they’ve been exposed to less-than-reputable companies in that arena in the past. They then automatically associate “less-than-reputable” with Direct Sales. And that’s unfortunate. However, there are less-than-reputable companies in EVERY mode of business — brick-and-mortar, online, you name it. No matter how a product is marketed and sold, what matters at the end of the day is the *quality* of that product and the *reputation* of the company backing it. I’ve found that helping people realize this removes the barriers to discussing the business side of ID Life.

Michelle: It’s actually so simple, be a product of the product and share it, don’t sell it. We just IDLife as we do life and that translates into changing other people’s lives by providing them with amazing products and an incredible opportunity to live life better. To live life on their own terms.

3. What’s the one IDLife product you can’t live without?

Michelle: Hydrate -for me, it’s the first line of defense in skin care and it’s made such a huge difference in how my skin looks and in how I feel, overall. Slim+ is slowly becoming my #1, though.

Keith: Pre and Post Workout – I train nearly every day, and adequate recovery is vitally important. As is getting the most oomph out of the precious little time I have each day to train. I want to maximize every minute of training, AND I want to recover as fast as possible so I can do it again the next day. Pre and Post enable me to do just that!

4. What’s your favorite IDLife Marketing tool and how has it helped you with your business?

Keith: the short “sizzle spot” videos are my favorite. They grab attention, and are super easy to share and link back to your ID Life site. I mix these in with fitness information I provide in my blog (which is “sponsored by” by ID Life business) and on my fitness-dedicated Facebook page.

Michelle: My favorite marketing tool is the automailer. I’m really busy and knowing that IDLife has created an opportunity to keep “dripping” on my prospects on my behalf by sending them email campaigns, at timed intervals, helps get my work done for me, while I do other things to grow my business

5. How did reaching Presidential Director feel?

Michelle: Pretty indescribable but definitely satisfying. We worked more than 2 years to promote. But it truly solidified that this is not a sprint it’s a marathon and keeping that in mind helps us keep going when momentum is slower. We know that if we just keep at it, we will get to the next level and it’s just a matter of consistency and commitment. Our level of belief has not ever waivered so GPD for us, is a matter of when, not if.

6. What is your favorite part of IDLife’s Compensation plan?

Michelle: Global pool because it truly sets us apart from other companies and creates a culture of abundance among the associates instead of what I have seen at other companies, a culture of scarcity and everyone out for themselves. Global pool truly behooves us to work with each other, cheer each other on and celebrate each other’s successes. That was the intent and design from the Executive Team from the beginning.

Frank and Gretchen Englund

Q: How did you hear about IDLife & what inspired you to start the Business?
A: Logan called and asked if I was open to looking at an opportunity with a company he was starting. We were inspired to start our IDLife business for several reasons: Logan was leading the way, neither of our professions offered the opportunity for residual income and we were excited about the potential of what that could mean, we recognized a ground floor opportunity like this only comes around once in a lifetime, and we were 100% on board with the concept of the IDLife movement as we had been searching for healthy alternatives to what was on the marketplace with respect to vitamins and supplementation. It was truly a win, win, win!!

Q: Being part of a Direct Selling Company requires dedication, motivation, and consistent habits. What has helped you get to where you are now, and do you have any tips you would like to share to others who might be interested into getting into the business?
A: First of all, at the foundation of your business it’s extremely important to genuinely believe in the products, company and values you’re promoting. Second, keep it simple! Third, lead with passion. Fourth, stay plugged in (webinars, local & corporate events, etc). Last, stay focused, block out the negative and don’t quit – Ever!!

Q: What’s one IDLife product you can’t live without?
A: IDNutrition for sure! The health benefits our immediate and extended family have experienced by having customized vitamins has been invaluable (but we really do have to give a shout out to Vegan Shake and Energy as a tie for second:)

Q: What’s your favorite IDLife Marketing tool and how has it helped you with your business?
A: We love the new high energy videos and how we can now link directly to our website!!

Q: How did reaching Presidential Director feel?
A: We are excited, humbled and grateful to have reached PD and recognize that we could not have reached this rank without the support of our amazing teammates both downline and upline! We can’t wait to help others reach PD as well!

Q: What is your favorite part of IDLife’s Compensation plan?
A: Of course we love ALL of the new compensation plan enhancements but if we must pick a favorite, global pool rocks!

1. How did you hear about IDLife & what inspired you to start the Business?
I have been in the industry for 14 years now. At the time I found IDLife I was very successful in another company but God had other plans. I met Logan Stout and heard the power behind our IDNutrition and the health assessment and was blown away. How could I not join a company that I believe will change the way we buy vitamins and revolutionize the health and wellness space? Our family locked arms with the most amazing corporate team and decided to join in October 2014 as Founding Partners.

3. What’s the one IDLife product you can’t live without?
My Favorite product is the IDNutrition. Being a WLS patient it has made a huge difference in my health.

4. What’s your favorite IDLife Marketing tool and how has it helped you with your business?
I love our IDlife app. I can do business anywhere, anytime.

5. How did reaching Presidential Director feel?
It felt great to break this rank. We are so blessed to have the most incredible team. I have met some of my best friends in this process. I truly love helping every single one of them reach their goals and I can’t wait to see each of our team members earn their blue jackets.

6. What is your favorite part of IDLife’s Compensation plan?
My favorite part is the Residual Match. To bring in a team member and help them become better than you and be rewarded to continue to help them month after month is huge.

1. How did you hear about IDLife & what inspired you to start the Business?
I heard about IDLife through my parents Nicole & Frank Kimbrough. I was already in the Health and Wellness Industry so when they sampled the products I was hooked! I believed IDNutrition was going to be revolutionary, so I wanted to be a part of the movement.

2. Being part of a Direct Selling Company requires dedication, motivation, and consistent habits. What has helped you get to where you are now, and do you have any tips you would like to share to others who might be interested into getting into Direct Sales?
I believe it’s very important to have a strong ‘WHY’. There’s a lot of No’s to go through on your journey so your ‘WHY’ for doing this business will allow you to overcome that. Also setting aside time to work your business is crucial to stay productive.

3. What’s one IDLife product you can’t live without?
If I had to pick one, it would be IDNutrition! I really feel it took me to another level with my overall health and has kept me there too.

4. What’s your favorite IDLife Marketing tool and how has it helped you with your business?
I love sending videos off of the IDLife app!
Being able to show them a short specific video piques their interest, and then I can follow up with them and get them the information they need. They love it when I tell them after that I can see if they watched it!

5. How did reaching Presidential Director feel?
Reaching Presidential Director felt amazing! To be in a club with such amazing individuals is truly an honor and a goal I had over two and a half years ago.

6. What is your favorite part of IDLife’s Compensation plan?
It was hard to pick, but I really love that car bonus! At 22, to be able to drive an Audi A3 and have IDLife pay for the car payment and insurance is truly amazing!
