Demystifying Melaleuca Originally Published online: Dec 22, 2014 Articles, East Idaho Business Steve Smede Viewed 55481 time(s)   Idaho Falls is home to two important organizations that employ a lot of people in Southeast Idaho – the Idaho National Labs (INL) and Melaleuca. While both groups play vital economic roles in our community, they can be somewhat confusing to explain.  After all, the INL deals with nuclear science, engineering and a host of government contractors. If you’re not an industry insider holding an advanced degree, you probably won’t understand its complexities without doing a lot of technical research.  As far as Melaleuca goes, most locals know it sponsors a really big Fourth of July fireworks show and Melaleuca Field, the baseball stadium where the Idaho Falls Chukars play. Some have learned it manufactures health, home cleaning, pharmaceutical and personal care products. But beyond that, it gets fuzzy.  ...

  Starting a Business from Home is the Only Way to Survive and Thrive During the Pandemic of Covid 19. Dateline: Creve Coeur, MO. USA. By: Jeffrey L. Klump 10/03/2020 The world is much different than it was just one year ago. People have gotten use to the new vocabulary such as "social distancing" and wearing masks. Regardless of what political spectrum you may fall under, the economic implications are staggering. Very few people are buying the propaganda that the economy is recovering. We keep hearing, including at the most recent political debate, that the stock market is at an all time high. That may be true, but the stock market has nothing to do with the real economy. Massive jobs layoffs continue, and the lines at food banks are getting longer. The most recent Gross Domestic Product(GDP) estimate is a staggering minus 31%. That number is huge and it maybe worse than that. The United States economy needs to...

Covid 19 Has Caused More Interest in Safe and Natural Disinfectants. The Time has Come for You to Find Out if the Disinfectants that You are Using for Coronavirus are Doing More Harm Than Good.   Dateline: Creve Coeur, MO., USA,  2020-Jun-20 — / MEK Enterprises / Written by Jeffrey L. Klump Watching television and social media over the past few months and seeing everyone stock up on toilet paper, hand sanitizer, and household disinfectant made me wonder if anyone bothers to read labels.   Label reading for consumable products has taken off over the past several years especially when news of toxic ingredients like Glysophate, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Arsenic, and many others have been added into our food supply for years, and maybe the cause of health problems including the spike in cancer cases.   The same can be said for household products including hand sanitizers and household disinfectant cleaners.   There are m...

Empathy fuels productive conversations. Aytekin TankVIP CONTRIBUTOREntrepreneur; Founder and CEO, JotForm 06/11/20 It was a sunny day in April. The air was crisp and the walk ahead of us enjoyable. I stared at the beautiful Embarcadero situated near our  San Francisco  office, feeling grateful for working close to such a stunning view. Then I shifted my gaze over to Tim, my walking mate for the afternoon. We were on one of many walking meetings we’d shared over the past year. But this time was different. Tim, a normally talkative employee, was dragging his heels and appeared disgruntled whenever I asked for status updates. He kept his head down, answering only in curt replies. Something was off. Melaleuca is the name people trust for quality, safe, and non toxic Made in the USA products. You can also earn monthly residual & passive income by referring others to this great American owned company. Click Here to learn more! As...

Originally written and published on 04/27/20 by Grant Cardone It’s not a secret I have always been interested in wealth. Since I was a little kid and watched my mother worry about money I have been interested in learning what the wealthy knew that we didn’t know. I have spent a lifetime studying the differences and been lucky enough to adopt some of the principles that separate the wealthy from almost everyone else. In one month twenty-six million people in the USA lost their jobs and even more had their pay reduced…the stock market lost trillions in valuation, people worldwide are concerned about their finances and their health…and thirty two million businesses in America had their revenues either stopped or interrupted. While money won’t buy you happiness, it’s the only thing that pays the rent, health care, toilet paper, mask, food and the like. Unfortunately during this time, like any other crisis, the wealthy will get wealthier and everyone else will end up w...

The Only Way to Survive and Thrive in this Environment is to start a Business or Businesses from Home!   Written by: Jeffrey L. Klump 05/01/20 The world is much different than it was just 60 days ago.  New words never heard before such as "social distancing" and "self quarantine" are now the norm.  Regardless of what Covid19 or Coronavirus actually is, or where it came from, the effects on the people of the world will be around for a long time to come.  Just because economies are beginning to open up in different countries including the United States, does not mean things are going back to the way they were.  There is no going back.  Supply chains have been broken from China and will not be fixed.  The United States in particular will have to reinvent itself and in some ways go back to the way things were back in the 1970's.  The trades such as carpenter's, mechanics, tool & die maker's, and many more will be once again in...

They see their small-business clients suffering--and they fear being judged by the actions of others--but Lyfe Marketing's co-founders are doubling down on optimism and faith in other entrepreneurs.
