Top USANA associates leave USANA for ARIIX - a MLM founded by former USANA president Fred Cooper

From USANA to ARIIX.

Fred Cooper, Mark Wilson, Jeffrey Yates and Riley Timmer resigned from USANA on May 9th, 2011 launched their own multilevel marketing company called ARIIX. At the beginning of July, USANA discovered that several of their top distributors (and I mean very top) had joined ARIIX as founding distributors. USANA terminated these members and may have a much larger problem looming. I believe we have to wait until the Third Quarter financial results to see the damage if any ARIIX has on USANA's distributor numbers.

When top distributors leave one MLM company to join another, their devote congregation (Downline members) usually follow. These leaders were used in virtually all of USANA's literature as well. So who are these so called USANA leaders that joined ARIIX?

(There may be more leaders who joined ARIIX, and I will post them on here when I find them)


These members have all made over one million dollars in commission and bonuses at USANA and they decided to take a risk and join ARIIX instead. Interestingly enough, all four of these USANA distributors are placed at the very top of ARIIX's distributor hierarchy (because they were the first ones in). A couple of these members have written on the internet why they believe they were terminated by USANA and express their displeasure.

Duke Tubtim letter

Now USANA does have a policy in place that allows their distributors to join other MLM companies as long as the other company does not offer a competing product. Well, ARIIX markets vitamins and minerals just as USANA does. So none of USANA distributors can join ARIIX and remain a USANA distributor. So are other USANA distributors joining ARIIX? You bet!


As I find additional USANA members also with ARIIX, I will update the list below.
