Synergy Celebrates 20 Years January 30, 2019

Synergy Celebrates 20 Years

Twenty years ago, Synergy WorldWide was born as a small skincare company attached to a large opportunity for any brave soul who was willing to start spreading the word. What those early Synergy pioneers did not know then was that Synergy would someday become the solution for millions seeking to revitalize their health and Leave a Legacy.

“Leave a Legacy” is Born

Synergy Founder Dan Higginson was involved at a young age with the Stephen R. Covey Leadership Center. He would travel from company to company as a consultant, training on the principles found in Covey’s bestselling book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. At one point, Dan was assigned to work with a number of direct-selling companies, each of which he initially approached with much skepticism. However, it wasn’t long before he came to realize that direct-selling companies were not bad at all— In fact, a direct-selling company could be great, on one condition: that great people would become involved.

Dan wanted to start a business that would attract and reward great people. By his definition, great people were the kind who desire to help others. The kind of people who would motivate themselves and others to make a difference in the world. The go-getters, the change-makers, and trend-setters. Yes, Synergy would be built for those kinds of people, by those kinds of people.

Enterprising men and women joined Dan and others hoping to make an impact on anyone who crossed their path. They shared an alternative means of earning income, and great products to enjoy along the way. They began making an impact, and thought to the future as they acted. “Leave a Legacy” became the fitting, heartfelt motto for Synergy WorldWide.

Early Roots in Synergy Japan

To guarantee that Synergy would build a strong worldwide presence, the first market of focus was none other than Japan, known at the time as the hardest market in which to achieve direct-sales success. Placing paramount importance on product quality and scientific validation, Japanese consumers would only accept the best. If Synergy could become successful in Japan, it could become successful anywhere. Synergy’s earliest staff and distributors went to work and rolled the dice. The gamble paid off, as Synergy’s presence in Japan quickly became its greatest strength.

Synergy WorldWide Partners with Nature’s Sunshine Products

In 2000, just one year after the company launched, Synergy pioneers were presented with an offer from the reputable industry-giant, Nature’s Sunshine Products. Time and time again, Nature’s Sunshine had proven to be a force for advancing health and wellness using exceptional products and enabling steady growth. Realizing that Synergy had a strong, enviable foundation in Japan fueled by correct business values, Nature’s Sunshine was interested in acquiring the young company and willing to allow Synergy to maintain its brand and business structure. Synergy, of course, would benefit from the acquisition in a myriad of ways. The incredible manufacturing facility, the capable and credible legal resources, the years of industry expertise— all this added fuel to the fire of momentum that the Synergy pioneers had been working to create.

After only a few short months of negotiation, Synergy WorldWide officially became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nature’s Sunshine Products. Overnight, both companies added tremendous value to each other, and formed the beginning of a long and prosperous partnership.

“Synergy is an incredibly powerful brand with tremendous potential. Our focus on Elite Health is very unique and has the power to transform people’s lives. And we’re just getting started.”
-Terrence Moorehead, Nature’s Sunshine Products CEO

Synergy Today

Over the past 20 years, Synergy has evolved and changed, but its core values remain the same. It has become best known for its heart-healthy product ProArgi-9+, for its philanthropic work around the world, for its latest offering of Elite Health microbiome-focused products, and for its unbeatable compensation plan. Additionally, not many companies can say that each lot of its products, ingredients, and programs are tried and tested, in-house, for quality, purity, and potency, nor can they rely daily on high-tech labs and clinics in which clinical studies are conducted to validate their products.

“Today, Synergy continues to be made great, thanks to the many wonderful people across the world working to make a difference. We look for ways to serve our communities. We look for ways to make our friends and families feel and function better. We share formulas and solutions that provide lasting benefits. We organize retreats and trainings that inspire and reward the brave entrepreneur. We celebrate each other’s achievements. We work to Leave a Legacy.”
-Dan Norman, Synergy WorldWide President
The Synergy product and business advantage is something to be proud of, but the culture of Synergy is what ultimately sets it apart. Synergy is built upon a legacy of honesty, integrity, and diligence. Those who join its ranks understand the importance of those values.

Such values have attracted phenomenal leaders in North America, Asia, and Europe. Currently, Synergy Korea stands tall as its largest market, led by strong, diligent Executive Team Member leaders, most notably Yun Tae Hwang and Han Tae Hwang. This November, Korea will be the proud home of the 20th Anniversary Global Summit, where people from around the world will gather to celebrate Synergy’s past and accelerate into the future.

“In this business, your assets are your people. You can have the greatest products and compensation plan, but if you don’t have great people and leadership, you have nothing.”
-Dan Higginson, Synergy WorldWide Founder
With its strong foundation, and now two decades of experience, and as part of the Nature’s Sunshine family, Synergy WorldWide has a bright future ahead. This year, join Synergy in celebrating 20 years of operation. You are invited to make a difference in the world, and to transform and improve lives along with Synergy’s global staff and distributor force. Look for ways to Leave a Legacy wherever you are, and transform lives around the world with Synergy WorldWide.

Meal Replacements Increasing in Demand January 15, 2019

Meal Replacements Increasing in Demand

Meal replacements are on the rise as people live increasingly busy lives, surrounded by unhealthy food choices. Many seeking to lose weight and/or build muscle turn to high-protein shakes to help them achieve their wellness goals. According to a recent report, the global protein supplements market is expected to increase to $3.59 billion by 2024, as people continue to invest in fitness and become more conscious of their health.

Meeting the demands of this consumer trend, Synergy WorldWide is proud to offer the Biome Shake and SLMsmart Health Shake. Both are delicious meal replacements with 20 and 26 grams of protein, respectively in every serving. But what is it that’s making protein and meal replacements a household necessity?

Shop SLMsmart “New You” Pack

WHY PROTEIN?

Human biology is stacked upon proteins. They exist in the outer and inner membranes of every living cell, and make an appearance in:

Muscle tissue
Bones
Red blood cells and plasma
Hair and nails

The body needs protein to make enzymes, which do a number of jobs in the body, including digesting food and making new cells. Perhaps one of the most important jobs that proteins have are creating neurotransmitters, which are responsible for sending messages back and forth from nerve cells to other specialized cells, such as muscle cells.

As people are predicted to continue making fitness a priority, consuming protein becomes of increasing importance because it is essential to supporting muscle growth. While Biome Shake and SLMsmart Health Shake were designed by in-house scientists to support weight management programs and microbiome care, many have turned to these shakes for their protein content and nutrients in enjoyable, flavorful, convenient forms.

WHY MEAL REPLACEMENTS?

Time moves quickly these days. With the conveniences of technology, our days are full, and our attention is in higher demand than ever before. No one wants more stress, especially stress in regards to food, proper nutrition, weight control, and microbiome health. That’s why an increasing number of people are reaching for meal replacement shakes, which are nutrient-dense and can help fill the gaps created by an incomplete diet through an easy-to-mix shake. Add in the convenience factor of being able to stash a serving or two in your purse or car, and you have the recipe for a quick, delicious alternative to skipping a meal or overindulging in a less healthy restaurant option.

Whether you’re looking for an easy weight management solution or a convenient way to fill nutritional voids, Synergy’s shakes can show you why meal replacements are skyrocketing in popularity.

Check out the special January kits containing these powerful shakes.

WHY SYNERGY?

The Hughes Center for Research and Innovation was designed with the goal to combat health mega-trends driven by poor diet and lifestyle choices through natural, nutritionally therapeutic products. Outfitted with state-of-the-art instrumentation, the Hughes Center is the hub of Synergy WorldWide’s new product development. Utilizing the center’s advanced technology, Hughes Center scientists verify the identity, purity, and potency of potential product ingredients and work to discover powerful and unique product formulations that support metabolic health through the gut microbiome. If a formulation proves itself in clinical studies, it joins Synergy’s family of Elite Health products.

Our manufacturing facility consists of four quality assurance labs, each of which plays a specific role in ensuring product quality. Our scientists have nearly 600 unique tests at their disposal to determine the quality, purity, and potency of all raw materials and finished products. Both raw materials and finished products undergo up to 10 days of testing.

New Diamond Executive: Stewart Rutter January 3, 2019

New Diamond Executive: Stewart Rutter

Synergy WorldWide is happy to congratulate its newest Diamond Executive, Stewart Rutter! With an enthusiasm for Synergy’s business structure and its innovative products, Stewart has become an unstoppable leader.

“The products are wonderful—second to none, but it’s our culture that I love the most about Synergy,” said Stewart. “We say ‘Leave a Legacy’ a lot and we talk about how we can do that, but we truly live it. That’s what makes me confident in the company long-term.”

For many years as an employee on Synergy’s corporate staff, Stewart taught Team Members how to build successful businesses and achieve freedom, stability, and prosperity. In 2015, after years of training others, he plunged into a Synergy business of his own, and never looked back.

“The opportunity was what really attracted me to the thought of becoming a Team Member. The idea that I could be in complete control of my destiny was exciting. I knew that I had the opportunity to form my own residual-based business that could pay me for years to come, and I was extremely excited to think I could do that for myself.”

As with most success stories like Stewart’s, the road is occasionally marked with pit stops of struggle, self-doubt, and obstacles. For Stewart, he calls these pit stops, “building blocks for growth.”

“Don’t give up. Be persistent and consistent. I once heard a leader say, ‘If you figure out all the ways to fail, you’ll find a way to succeed.’ That is so true, and I’ve found that with myself and my business. Don’t let your failures tear your confidence away. Let them be your building blocks for growth.”

1 / 6

Within his thriving business, Stewart has chosen to focus on the dedicated individual members of his team. Most of his time and energy goes into other people’s success, and he wouldn’t have it any other way.

“Seeing other people’s lives change and seeing them reach the goals they hoped for, this is the most rewarding aspect of Synergy. Recently seeing [Malaysian leader] Alex Boh earn Pearl was very exciting for me. Alex has worked extremely hard and I am so proud and grateful to be on a team with him. It has meant more to me to see him reach Pearl than for myself to hit Diamond.”

Behind every successful person, you will find the people who influenced, mentored, and helped him or her along in their journey. Stewart has many to thank for aiding him in his journey.

“I want to help people reach their goals, both in their businesses and in their health. I want to help them live their dreams and create something that can benefit their lives in a positive way. I couldn’t do that without the help I have received, and continuously receive, from [Triple Presidential Executive] Mark Comer, who has taught me that helping others succeed ultimately helps us reach our goals.
Again, I owe a huge thank you to Alex Boh and the entire Synergy Malaysia office. I’m also very grateful to [Synergy President] Dan Norman, to [Emerald Executive] David Johnston, and to many other leaders. Of course, Dan Higginson’s vision and example of serving others has made a big impact on me as well. All these great people truly live the Synergy mission. It’s a great time to be a part of Synergy and I’m going to keep working to fulfill my dreams by helping others achieve theirs.”
