Now is a Great Time to Become an Independent Business Owner says Greg Duncan of IBOAI

“The direct selling industry is booming, making this the perfect time to start your own Quixtar business.” – Greg Duncan

Grand Rapids, Mich., 21 April 2006 – With the increasing popularity of direct selling, Greg Duncan and the Independent Business Owners Association International (IBOAI, www.iboai.com) recommend starting an independent business powered by Quixtar (www.quixtar.com).
“According to a recent study by Ernst and Young, the direct selling industry has grown 80% over the past 10 years and accounts for nearly $30 billion in annual sales,” says Greg Duncan. “They also report that an impressive 89% of direct sellers are “satisfied” with their industry experience,” adds Duncan. “This tremendous growth paired with high industry satisfaction levels provides outstanding opportunities for our members, Quixtar Independent Business Owners (IBOs).”
“Quixtar’s leading edge business model combines the power of the Internet with the low-risk, low-cost Independent Business Ownership plan, and Quixtar’s full-service infrastructure, making a Quixtar business a great way to become a part of the booming direct selling industry,” explains Duncan.
According to Harris Interactive, 72% of American adults have considered starting their own businesses.
“There are many reasons people start their own businesses,” says Greg Duncan. “Some people are looking to supplement their income while others want to be able to define success on their own terms.”
The Quixtar Independent Business Ownership plan makes it easy. It’s a low-cost, low-risk; unique approach to business, where you’re supported by proven business leaders who know what it takes to achieve success.
“Since its launch in 1999, Quixtar IBOs have generated sales of more than $5.3 billion and they’ve earned more than $1.7 billion in bonuses and other incentives,” adds Greg Duncan.
“As an IBO you have access to the best products available, including XS™ Power Nutrition, NUTRILITE® vitamins, minerals and supplements, ARTISTRY® skin care and cosmetics and NAO never accept ordinary cosmetics™, as well as thousands of name brand products from brands such as Levi’s, Whirlpool, Sony and many more,” notes Greg Duncan.
“You can learn more about the Independent Business Ownership Plan exclusively from our trade association members, Independent Business Owners in the United States and Canada, powered by Quixtar,” says Greg Duncan.
